Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of control technology for wearable devices, and more particularly to a finger control device. Background Technology

[0002] Finger buttons are interactive devices used in wearable devices (such as smartwatches, fitness trackers, etc.) that allow users to trigger specific functions, such as launching applications, answering calls, and adjusting volume, by tapping or swiping their fingers without removing their watch or other wearable devices.

[0003] Currently, finger buttons on the market are usually in the form of gloves, which are directly fixed to wearable devices via wires.

[0004] However, because finger-button gloves are typically designed asymmetrically, the button placement and function allocation are optimized based on the operating habits of one hand. For example, some buttons may be located between the thumb and forefinger, making it convenient for right-handed users to click or swipe; while these button positions may be inconvenient or even unusable for left-handed users. Therefore, to ensure users can comfortably use finger-button gloves, manufacturers usually design different left-hand and right-hand versions to suit different user needs. Utility Model Content

[0005] This application provides a finger control device to solve the problem that existing finger buttons cannot be used simultaneously for left and right hand wear operation.

[0006] In a first aspect, this application provides a finger control device for controlling electronic devices, the finger control device comprising:

[0007] A connector, detachably connected to the electronic device; and

[0008] A finger-wearing control ring is connected to the connector. When the connector is connected to the electronic device, the finger-wearing control ring controls the electronic device through the connector.

[0009] In some embodiments, the connector includes a magnetic part and an electrical connection part, wherein the magnetic part magnetically engages with a magnetic component of the electronic device; and the electrical connection part engages with an electrical connection terminal of the electronic device.

[0010] In some embodiments, there are multiple magnetic attraction portions, which are spaced apart on both sides of the electrical connection portion.

[0011] In some embodiments, the magnetic attraction part is a magnet or iron.

[0012] In some embodiments, the finger control device further includes an intermediate connector connected between the connector and the finger wearing control ring.

[0013] In some embodiments, the intermediate connector is a flexible connector.

[0014] In some embodiments, the finger-wearing control ring includes a control unit and a wearing unit connected to each other. The control unit is connected to the connector, and when the connector is connected to the electronic device, the control unit controls the electronic device through the connector.

[0015] In some embodiments, the wearing part is a wearing ring, and the wearing part has a notch located at the end of the wearing part away from the control part.

[0016] In some embodiments, the wearing part is an elastic wearing ring.

[0017] In some embodiments, the control unit is provided with a button located on the side of the control unit opposite to the wearing part.

[0018] The technical solutions provided in this application have the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0019] The finger button device provided in this application includes a connector and a finger wearing control ring that are interconnected. The connector is detachably connected to the electronic device. Since the finger wearing control ring of this application is for wearing on the user's finger and only covers part of the user's finger, the user can flexibly rotate the wearing direction. And since the connector is detachably connected to the electronic device, when the user wears the finger button device, the connection between the connector and the electronic device can be disconnected, and then the left and right hands can be worn as needed, without being restricted by the electronic device, and there is no need to change different glove button versions. That is, the finger wearing control ring can adapt to the wearing of the user's left and right fingers at the same time, improving the applicability of the finger button device.

Detailed Implementation

[0031] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0032] The following disclosure provides numerous different embodiments or examples for implementing various structures of this application. To simplify the disclosure, specific examples of components and arrangements are described below. These are merely examples and are not intended to limit the scope of this application. Furthermore, reference numerals and / or letters may be repeated in different examples. Such repetition is for simplification and clarity and does not in itself indicate a relationship between the various embodiments and / or arrangements discussed.

[0033] For ease of description, spatial relative terms may be used in the text to describe the relative position or movement of one element or feature relative to another element or feature, as shown in the figure.

For example, if the device in the figure undergoes a positional flip, orientation change, or change of motion, these directional indications will change accordingly. For instance, an element described as "below other elements or features" or "below other elements or features" will subsequently be oriented "above other elements or features" or "above other elements or features." Therefore, the example term "below" can include both upper and lower orientations. The device may be otherwise oriented (rotated 90 degrees or in other directions), and the spatial relative descriptors used in the text will be interpreted accordingly.

[0034] Finger buttons are interactive devices used in wearable devices (such as smartwatches, fitness trackers, etc.) that allow users to trigger specific functions, such as launching applications, answering calls, and adjusting volume, by tapping or swiping their fingers without removing their watch or other wearable devices.

[0035] Currently, finger buttons on the market are usually in the form of gloves, which are directly fixed to wearable devices via wires.

[0036] However, because finger-button gloves are typically designed asymmetrically, the button placement and function allocation are optimized based on the operating habits of one hand. For example, some buttons may be located between the thumb and forefinger, making it convenient for right-handed users to click or swipe; while these button positions may be inconvenient or even unusable for left-handed users. Therefore, to ensure users can comfortably use finger-button gloves, manufacturers usually design different left-hand and right-hand versions to suit different user needs.

[0037] To address the technical problem that finger buttons in existing technologies cannot be used simultaneously with left and right hand wear operations, this application provides a finger control device that can be used simultaneously with left and right hand wear operations.

[0038] participate Figures 1 to 6 This application provides a finger control device for controlling electronic devices. The finger control device 10 includes a connector 100 and a finger wearing control ring 200.

[0039] The connector 100 is detachably connected to the electronic device 20;

[0040] The finger-wearing control ring 200 is connected to the connector 100. When the connector 100 is connected to the electronic device 20, the finger-wearing control ring 200 controls the electronic device 20 through the connector 100.

[0041] The finger button 211 device provided in this embodiment includes a connector 100 and a finger wearing control ring 200 that are interconnected. The connector 100 is detachably connected to the electronic device 20. Since the finger wearing control ring 200 of this application is for wearing on the user's finger and only covers part of the user's finger, the user can flexibly rotate the wearing direction. Since the connector 100 is detachably connected to the electronic device 20, when the user wears the finger button 211 device, the connection between the connector 100 and the electronic device 20 can be disconnected, and then the left and right hands can be worn as needed without being restricted by the electronic device 20. There is also no need to change to different versions of the glove button 211. That is, the finger wearing control ring 200 can adapt to the wearing of the user's left and right fingers at the same time, improving the applicability of the finger button 211 device.

[0042] In addition, since the traditional finger button 211 is directly fixed to the device by a wire, the finger button 211 hangs on the device when wearing the device, which makes it inconvenient to wear the device.

[0043] In this embodiment, the connector 100 of the finger button 211 device is detachably connected to the electronic device 20. Therefore, when wearing the device, the user can first disconnect the connector 100 from the electronic device 20, and then connect the finger button 211 device to the electronic device 20 after the electronic device 20 is worn, thus providing the user with a more convenient and user-friendly experience.

[0044] In some implementations, electronic device 20 may be a smart wearable device, such as a smartwatch or fitness tracker.

[0045] In some embodiments, the connector 100 can be detachably connected to the electronic device 20 by means of screw connection, snap connection, plug connection, or magnetic connection.

[0046] For example, the connector 100 may include a magnetic part 110 and an electrical connection part 120. The magnetic part 110 is magnetically attracted to the magnetic component 201 of the electronic device 20, and the electrical connection part 120 is engaged with the electrical connection terminal 202 of the electronic device 20.

[0047] For example, if the electrical connection part 120 of the connector 100 is a data pin point 1 and the electrical connection end 202 of the electronic device 20 is a data pin point 2, then the data pin point 1 and the data pin point 2 are connected to form a closed circuit, thereby realizing the electrical connection between the finger button 211 device and the electronic device 20.

[0048] In some embodiments, there are multiple magnetic attraction parts 110, and the multiple magnetic attraction parts 110 are spaced apart on both sides of the electrical connection part 120.

[0049] In this way, by setting the magnetic suction part 110 on both sides of the electrical connection part 120, the electrical connection part 120 can be physically limited to prevent it from shifting or rotating during use, thereby improving the stability of the connection of the electrical connection part 120 and ensuring the stability and accuracy of signal transmission.

[0050] Furthermore, by distributing the magnetic suction parts 110 on both sides of the electrical connection part 120, a multi-point fixing structure is formed. This design can distribute the attraction force to multiple points, so even if one magnetic suction part 110 is affected by external forces (such as vibration, impact, etc.), the other magnetic suction parts 110 can still maintain attraction, ensuring that the connector 100 will not easily fall off the electronic device 20, thereby improving the magnetic attraction stability of the magnetic suction parts 110.

[0051] For example, see Figure 2 There are two magnetic attraction parts 110, which are located on both sides of the electrical connection part 120.

[0052] In some embodiments, the magnetic attraction part 110 is a magnet or iron.

[0053] For example, if the magnetic part 110 of the connector 100 is a magnet, then the magnetic component 201 of the electronic device 20 can be a magnet or iron; if the magnetic part 110 of the connector 100 is iron, then the magnetic component 201 of the electronic device 20 is a magnet.

[0054] In some embodiments, the finger control device 10 further includes an intermediate connector 130 connected between the connector 100 and the finger wearing control ring 200.

[0055] The connector 100 and the finger wearing control ring 200 can be electrically connected through the intermediate connector 130.

[0056] In some embodiments, the intermediate connector 130 is a flexible connector 100.

[0057] Thus, the use of flexible connector 100 makes it easy for users to wear it on their left and right fingers, and also makes it easy for connector 100 to connect to electronic device 20.

[0058] In some embodiments, the finger-wearing control ring 200 includes a control unit 210 and a wearing unit 220 connected to each other. The control unit 210 is connected to the connector 100. When the connector 100 is connected to the electronic device 20, the control unit 210 controls the electronic device 20 through the connector 100.

[0059] The wearing part 220 is used to be worn on the user's left and right fingers, such as the left index finger and the right index finger.

[0060] In some embodiments, the wearing part 220 is a wearing ring, and the wearing part 220 has a notch 221, which is located at the end of the wearing part 220 away from the control part 210.

[0061] With the wearing part 220 having a notch 221, users can directly insert their fingers into the wearing ring through the notch 221 without having to slip it on from the top. This design not only simplifies the wearing process but also reduces pressure on the fingers and accommodates different finger sizes.

[0062] In some embodiments, the wearing part 220 is an elastic wearing ring.

[0063] The elastic wearing ring allows users to automatically adjust the tightness according to their finger size, improving wearing comfort.

[0064] In some embodiments, the control unit 210 is provided with a button 211, which is located on the side of the control unit 210 opposite to the wearing part 220.

[0065] Thus, button 211 is located on the side of the control unit 210 opposite to the wearing part 220, making it convenient for the user to operate button 211 with their thumb.

[0066] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, first wear the electronic device 20 on your right hand, then put the wearing part 220 of the finger control device 10 on your right index finger, and align the magnetic part 110 on the connector 100 with the corresponding magnet position of the electronic device 20 so that the finger control device is connected to the electronic device 20.

[0067] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, first wear the electronic device 20 on your left hand, then put the wearing part 220 of the finger control device 10 on the index finger of your left hand, and align the magnetic part 110 on the connector 100 with the corresponding magnet position of the electronic device 20 so that the finger control device is connected to the electronic device 20.

[0068] In this way, users can adjust the wearing method of the finger control device 10 according to their left- or right-handed operating habits, without the need to configure a separate left-handed finger button and device.
