It should be noted that when a component is considered to be "connected" to another component, it can be directly connected to the other component or there may be a component centrally located at the same time.
[0033] The technical solution of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0034] Reference Figures 1 to 8 This utility model provides a smart wearable device, including a smartwatch. The smartwatch includes a strap connection structure comprising a watch face 10, a first strap 20, a second strap 30, and a connecting component 40. The first strap 20 is disposed on one side of the watch face 10, and the second strap 30 is disposed on the other side of the watch face 10. One end of the first strap 20 and one end of the second strap 30 are rotatably connected to the watch face 10. The connecting component 40 includes a latch 41 disposed at the other end of the first strap 20 and a lock body 42 disposed on the second strap 30. The lock body 42 is slidably connected to the second strap 30 to adjust the distance between the lock body 42 and the watch face 10; when the user wears the smartwatch, the lock body 42 is fixed to the second strap 30. The latch 41 has a locking protrusion that protrudes from one side of the latch 41 body. The lock body 42 contains a resilient lock cylinder 43. The lock cylinder 43 has a groove 44 corresponding to the engaging protrusion, and the lock body 42 has a lock groove 45 for the bolt 41 to be inserted. During the process of inserting the bolt 41 into the lock groove 45, the lock cylinder 43 is compressed, and the engaging protrusion enters and aligns with the opening of the groove 44. At this time, the elasticity of the lock cylinder 43 disappears and returns to its natural state, and the engaging protrusion is engaged in the groove 44. The elasticity of the lock cylinder 43 prevents the engaging protrusion from disengaging from the groove 44.
[0035] Specifically, when wearing the smartwatch, the watch face 10, the first strap 20, and the second strap 30 are wrapped around the wrist, and then the latch 41 is inserted into the lock slot 45. At this time, the engaging protrusion engages with the slot 44, and the elasticity of the lock cylinder 43 keeps the slot wall of the slot 44 in contact with the engaging protrusion, so that the engaging protrusion cannot disengage from the slot 44. That is, the latch 41 and the lock body 42 are always locked, and the first strap 20 and the second strap 30 cannot be separated, thus preventing the wearer from removing the watch and allowing the guardian to continue monitoring.
[0036] Furthermore, the connecting assembly 40 also includes a spring 46. The lock cylinder 43 is provided with a mounting groove 47. One end of the spring 46 is connected to the bottom wall of the mounting groove 47, and the other end is connected to the inner side wall of the lock body 42. It should be noted that the lock cylinder 43 is disposed in the receiving cavity of the lock body 42, and the thickness of the lock cylinder 43 is slightly less than the height of the receiving cavity, the width of the lock cylinder 43 is slightly less than the width of the receiving cavity, and the spring force of the spring 46 is in the same direction as the length direction of the receiving cavity, so that the lock cylinder 43 can move along the length direction of the receiving cavity.
[0037] Furthermore, the latch 41 is connected to the first watch strap 20 via the connecting block 48, the connecting block 48 is rotatably connected to the first watch strap 20, and the latch 41 is fixedly connected to the connecting block 48.
[0038] Furthermore, the watch strap's connecting structure also includes an adjusting plate 50, which is rotatably connected to the lock body 42. Specifically, connecting plates 53 are provided on both sides of the adjusting plate 50, and a rotating shaft 55 is provided on the lock body 42. The connecting plate 53 is provided with rotating shaft holes 56 corresponding to the rotating shaft 55. The two ends of the rotating shaft 55 are inserted into the rotating shaft holes 56, thereby realizing the rotatable connection between the connecting plate 53 and the lock body 42, that is, the adjusting plate 50 is rotatably connected to the lock body 42 through the connecting plate 53.
[0039] The lock body 42, connecting plate 53, and adjusting plate 50 together form a through hole for the second watch strap 30 to pass through, meaning that the lock body 42 and adjusting plate 50 are slidably connected to the second watch strap 30. Multiple limiting grooves 51 are evenly spaced on the inner side of the second watch strap 30, and the adjusting plate 50 has limiting protrusions 52 corresponding to the limiting grooves 51. It should be noted that the bottom width of the limiting groove 51 is greater than the opening width. When the limiting protrusion 52 is engaged in the limiting groove 51, it cannot separate from the limiting groove 51 without external force. When it is necessary to adjust the distance between the lock body 42 and the dial 10, the user fixes the second watch strap 30 and applies a force away from the second watch strap 30 to the adjusting plate 50, thereby separating the limiting protrusion 52 from the limiting groove 51, and then slides the lock body 42 and adjusting plate 50 to engage the limiting protrusion 52 in another limiting groove 51. It should be further explained that, because the limiting groove 51 is located inside the second watchband 30, when the user wears the smartwatch, they cannot apply a force away from the second watchband 30 to the adjustment plate 50. That is, they cannot separate the limiting protrusion 52 from the limiting groove 51, and therefore cannot adjust the distance between the lock body 42 and the dial 10. Thus, when wearing the smartwatch, it is impossible to remove the watch by adjusting the watchband length, further preventing the ward from removing the watch after wearing it. It should also be noted that both the first and second watchbands are made of metal, making it impossible for the wearer to remove the watch by cutting the watchband.
[0040] Furthermore, a limiting shaft 57 is provided on the connecting plate 53, and a limiting block (not shown) is provided on the lock body 42, so that the rotation angle of the adjusting plate 50 relative to the lock body 42 is within a preset range.
[0041] Furthermore, a baffle 54 is provided at the end of the second strap 30 away from the dial 10, which prevents the lock body 42 and the adjustment plate 50 from sliding outside the second strap 30.
[0042] Furthermore, there are two locking tongues 41 and two locking cylinders 43, which are symmetrically arranged. This technical solution can effectively improve the stability of the connection between the first watch strap 20 and the second watch strap 30.
[0043] Furthermore, the lock body 42 is provided with a keyhole 49 for inserting the key 100 into the lock body 42 and pressing the lock cylinder 43. The lock cylinder 43 has a notch on the side near the keyhole 49 for pressing the lock cylinder 43 by the key 100. In this embodiment of the present invention, the notches of the two lock cylinders 43 are combined to form an ellipse.
[0044] The key 100 of this embodiment includes a connecting rod 101, a handle 102 disposed at one end of the connecting rod 101, and an eccentric block 103 disposed at the other end of the connecting rod 101. When it is necessary to separate the first watch strap 20 and the second watch strap 30 (that is, when removing the smartwatch from the wearer), the eccentric block 103 of the key 100 is inserted into the lock body 42 through the keyhole 49 and falls into the ellipse formed by the notches of the two lock cylinders 43. Then, the key 100 is rotated 90 degrees, so that the eccentric block 103 presses the lock cylinders 43, and the slot 44 moves away from the engaging protrusion (the lock cylinders 43 are opened), and the engaging protrusion separates from the slot 44. At this time, the bolt 41 can be pulled out of the lock groove 45, and the bolt 41 separates from the lock body 42, that is, the first watch strap 20 and the second watch strap 30 are separated, thus removing the smartwatch from the wearer. The present invention discloses a watch strap connection structure that requires a key 100 to remove the smartwatch from the wearer. That is, after the guardian puts the smartwatch on the ward, the guardian keeps the key 100 to prevent the ward from removing the watch, thereby ensuring that the guardian can continue to monitor the ward.
[0045] The above-described embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
