Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of headphone and watch technology, and in particular relates to a flip-cover hinge assembly structure for an integrated headphone and watch wearable device. Background Technology

[0002] Wearable devices that integrate headphones and watches refer to smart wearable devices that combine the functions of headphones and watches. These devices not only have the traditional functions of watches, such as displaying the time and date, but also have built-in headphones. Users can easily take out the headphones by simply pushing or opening the watch face, achieving convenient wearing and music enjoyment anytime, anywhere. At the same time, they also retain the smart functions of watches, such as health monitoring and information reminders, providing users with a more comprehensive and convenient smart experience.

[0003] However, in the assembly of existing flip-type headphone watches, the hinge of the flip cover is first inserted diagonally into a slot on one side, and then the hinge is compressed with a tool before the flip cover can be installed on the watch body. This operation method firstly makes assembly difficult, secondly the hinge is not detachable, and both the shell and the hinge are damaged during repair, resulting in a lot of material waste. In addition, the traditional convex dot limiting mold requires a travel position, which increases the difficulty and cost of the mold. Furthermore, the gap between the flip cover and the body is generally relatively large, affecting the aesthetics and refinement.

[0004] To address these issues, we provide a flip-top hinge assembly structure for an integrated earphone and watch wearable device, which solves the problems mentioned above. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a flip cover hinge assembly structure for a wearable device that integrates headphones and a watch. By setting two separate assembly structures, the hinge and the positioning post, and using a decorative frame to cover the installation position of the cover, this solves the problems of difficult assembly operation and non-removable hinge in the existing flip cover hinge assembly structure for wearable devices that integrate headphones and watches. These problems also prevent damage to the outer shell and hinge during repairs, which increases maintenance costs.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution.

[0007] This utility model relates to a flip-top hinge assembly structure for an integrated earphone and watch wearable device, comprising a middle frame, a bottom shell fixedly connected to the bottom of the middle frame, a decorative frame fitted on the surface of the middle frame, a mounting groove on the rear side of the top of the middle frame, through holes on both sides of the mounting groove, a fixing cylinder inside the mounting groove, a positioning post and a pivot on both sides of the inner cavity of the fixing cylinder, the opposite sides of the positioning post and the pivot extending into the through holes, and a compartment cover fixedly connected to the top of the fixing cylinder.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that a button notch is provided on the left side of the decorative frame, and a fixing opening is provided on the rear side of the decorative frame to cooperate with the mounting groove and the fixing cylinder. The button notch can facilitate the fixing of the watch's control buttons in the middle frame, and the fixing opening can make the decorative frame fit tightly with the cover and the mounting groove, while limiting the middle frame to prevent it from moving upward.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that a cable routing opening is provided on the front side of the fixed cylinder, and a limit stop is fixedly connected to the right side of the front side of the fixed cylinder. The cable routing opening allows the heart rate cable to pass through the fixed cylinder and be installed on the main board inside the chamber cover. The limit stop is used to limit the opening angle of the chamber cover to 90°.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that a limiting boss is provided on the right side of the top of the positioning post, and a positioning hole is provided on the right side of the positioning post. The limiting boss can limit and fix the positioning post to prevent it from rotating inside the fixed cylinder, and the positioning hole can cooperate with the limiting steel needle to position the rotating shaft, thereby improving the stability of the rotating shaft during rotation.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that a rotating shaft spring and a limiting steel needle are fixedly connected to the left side of the rotating shaft, and a rotating block is movably connected to the right side of the rotating shaft. The rotating shaft compresses the rotating shaft spring and the limiting steel needle to prevent the rotating shaft from separating from the fixed cylinder.

[0012] The present invention is further configured such that fixing holes are provided on both sides of the fixing cylinder for use with the rotating shaft and the positioning post, and the top of the compartment cover is fixedly connected to the display screen and the main board. The fixing holes can facilitate the insertion of the positioning post and the rotating shaft into the inner wall of the fixing cylinder, and the display screen can display various data displayed by the watch for easy viewing by the user.

[0013] The present invention is further configured such that a watch buckle is fixedly connected to the bottom of both the front and rear sides of the bottom case, and a dustproof sealing ring is fixedly connected to the bottom of the cover. The watch buckle facilitates the connection between the bottom case and the watch strap, making it convenient for the user to wear the watch. The dustproof sealing ring can seal the gap between the cover and the middle frame, preventing external dust from entering the middle frame.

[0014] The present invention has the following beneficial effects.

[0015] 1. This utility model involves inserting a rotating shaft into a fixed cylinder, placing the fixed cylinder into an installation groove, and then inserting a positioning post at the other end to limit the rotation shaft. A decorative frame is then fitted onto the surface of the middle frame to cover the through holes on both sides of the installation groove, preventing the rotating shaft and positioning post from moving. This also enhances the aesthetics of the middle frame and provides some decorative function. The entire installation process is quick and convenient, eliminating the need for tools to compress the rotating shaft, thus shortening the assembly time of the cover and improving production efficiency.

[0016] 2. This utility model, through the setting of the decorative frame, allows for quick disassembly of the watch case cover when the watch is being repaired. By removing the decorative frame that is snapped into the middle frame, it no longer obstructs the through holes on both sides of the mounting slot. Repair personnel can quickly remove the positioning pin and the pivot, separating the case cover from the middle frame without damaging the outer shell and the pivot, thus reducing material waste and compressing repair costs.

Through the cooperation of the positioning hole 11 and the limiting steel pin 12, the positioning pin 7 limits the installation of the rotating shaft 8, preventing the rotating shaft 8 from shaking during rotation and improving its stability. After the cover 9 is installed, cover it with the decorative frame 3. The decorative frame 3 seals the two through holes 5, which not only prevents the rotating shaft 8 from shaking during rotation, but also prevents the rotating shaft 8 from shaking during rotation. The separation of the positioning post 7 from the fixing cylinder 6 and the through hole 5 not only enhances the aesthetics but also makes the entire assembly process quick and convenient. It eliminates the need for tools to compress the rotating shaft 8, shortening the assembly time of the cover 9 and improving production efficiency. When the watch needs to be repaired and the cover 9 and the middle frame 1 need to be disassembled, only the decorative frame 3 needs to be removed so that the decorative frame 3 no longer seals the through hole 5. Repair personnel can then quickly remove the positioning post 7 and the rotating shaft 8, decoupling the cover 9 and the middle frame 1 without damaging the outer shell and the rotating shaft 8, reducing material waste and compressing repair costs.
