[0002] Wearable products are becoming increasingly popular and used by more and more people, such as watches and bracelets. In order to pursue a three-dimensional effect, customers usually adopt a design that uses a spherical stepped cover plate wrapped in the case.

This makes the stepped area susceptible to dirt and causes the dyne value to be low, which affects the adhesive strength of the bonding. This makes the case and cover plate easy to fall off, resulting in product damage and reducing the product's competitiveness. Utility Model Content

[0024] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0025] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "transverse", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential", etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0026] Furthermore, the terms "first," "second," and "third" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first," "second," or "third" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0027] This utility model provides a spherical cover for wearable products, which includes a substrate and a spherical layer disposed above the substrate. The cross-section of the substrate and the spherical layer are both circular. The substrate and the spherical layer are integrally formed. The diameter of the spherical layer is smaller than the diameter of the substrate, and a step is formed at the edge of the substrate. The upper surface of the substrate located at the step is a rough surface, and the outer surface of the spherical layer and the lower surface of the substrate are smooth surfaces.

[0028] Because the upper surface of the substrate located at the step is rough, the dirt resistance of the step is improved and the dyne value is increased, thereby improving the adhesive strength between the step and the housing. This makes the housing and cover less likely to fall off, thus avoiding product damage and improving the product's competitiveness.

[0029] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, examples of which are shown in the drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0030] Example 1, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 This invention provides a spherical cover for wearable products, comprising a substrate 1 and a spherical layer 2 disposed above the substrate 1. Both the substrate 1 and the spherical layer 2 have circular cross-sections and are integrally formed. The diameter of the spherical layer 2 is smaller than the diameter of the substrate 1, and a step 3 is formed at the edge of the substrate 1. The upper surface of the substrate 1 at the step 3 is a rough surface, while the outer surface of the spherical layer 2 and the lower surface of the substrate 1 are smooth surfaces. Because the upper surface of the substrate 1 at the step 3 is rough, the dirt resistance and dyne value at the step 3 are improved, thereby increasing the adhesive strength between the step 3 and the casing. This makes it less likely for the casing and the cover to detach, thus preventing product damage and enhancing the product's competitiveness.

[0031] Furthermore, a chamfer 4 is provided at the connection between the substrate 1 and the spherical layer 2. In this embodiment, the chamfer 4 is a rounded chamfer 4.

[0032] Furthermore, a surface treatment layer for improving surface roughness is provided on the upper surface of the substrate 1 located at step 3. This surface treatment layer is a diamond knurled or frosted layer, thereby improving the dirt resistance of step 3 and increasing the dyne value to improve the adhesive strength between step 3 and the housing, making the housing and cover less likely to fall off, thereby avoiding product damage and improving the product's competitiveness.

[0033] During production, a circular substrate 1 is provided first. The first step of spherical machining is performed by CNC machining using a diamond-cutting wheel. The machined spherical surface is rough and matte. The spherical surface is then polished using a 2.5D blanket polishing method to achieve a mirror finish. Next, the second step of step 3 is machined by CNC machining. The polished product is then machined a second time, only step 3 needs to be machined. Finally, double-sided polishing is performed. While polishing the edges, scratches on the back of the substrate 1 are also repaired to improve the yield.

[0034] Example 2, please refer to Figure 4 As a further optimization of Embodiment 1, in this embodiment, a frame-shaped overflow groove 5 is etched on the lower surface of the substrate 1 located in the non-visible area. Light-shielding ink is provided at the edge of the lower surface of the substrate 1 located in the non-visible area, and the light-shielding ink is applied to the outer surface of the overflow groove 5 and the lower surface of the substrate 1. Because the overflow groove 5 is provided on the lower surface of the substrate 1, when the OCA optical adhesive 6 is applied, the OCA optical adhesive 6 will be subjected to pressure and overflow outwards. Excess adhesive will flow into and be stored in the overflow groove 5, preventing it from continuing to spread outwards, thereby limiting the extent of overflow. This effectively avoids light leakage caused by the overflow of the OCA optical adhesive 6. The light-shielding ink is provided at the edge of the lower surface of the substrate 1, and the light-shielding ink is applied to the outer surface of the overflow groove 5 and the lower surface of the substrate 1. Since the overflow groove 5 is located in the light-shielding ink area at the edge of the substrate 1, it will not affect the appearance of the product.

[0035] Furthermore, an OCA optical adhesive 6 is disposed on the lower surface of the substrate 1. The OCA optical adhesive 6 is disposed within the area formed by the overflow groove 5. The shape of the overflow groove 5 can be designed to facilitate etching, and the cross-section is not limited to semi-circular, V-shaped, etc. Currently, the industry-standard thickness of the substrate 1 is about 0.8 mm, the thickness of the OCA optical adhesive 6 is about 0.1 mm, and the etching depth of the overflow groove 5 can be designed at 0.05 mm and adjusted according to the actual amount of overflow adhesive.

For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection, an electrical connection, or a connection that allows communication between them; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise explicitly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.
