Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of smart glasses accessories, and in particular to a smart glasses case. Background Technology

[0002] Smart glasses are wearable devices that combine augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), or mixed reality (MR) technologies, expanding the functionality of traditional glasses by overlaying digital information onto the real world or providing interactive experiences.

[0003] Smart glasses typically require charging to use features such as augmented reality (AR). One type of smart glasses has charging contacts at the ends of both temples. Charging is achieved by connecting these contacts to conductive contacts on a charging device. Conventional charging devices have two fixed positions for the charging contacts. The smart glasses fold to align with these contacts for charging. There are two possible folded temple positions: 1) Left front and right rear; 2) Right front and left rear. If the conductive contacts on a conventional charging device are positioned left front and right rear, the folded temple ends must also be in the left front and right rear positions for charging to work. If the folded temple ends are right front and left rear, charging will fail because the charging contacts cannot make contact with the conductive contacts. Users must ensure the folded temple ends are in the correct position to charge; the temples should not be folded arbitrarily during charging. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the shortcomings of existing technologies where charging requires the user to ensure the folded temple ends are in the correct position, and the temples cannot be folded freely during charging, this utility model provides a smart glasses case, comprising:

[0005] Box body;

[0006] The charging dock is installed inside the box, with a support part and two connecting parts. The two connecting parts are respectively located on both sides of the support part. One connecting part is provided with a first fixing groove and a second fixing groove, and conductive contacts are provided in the first fixing groove and the second fixing groove, respectively. The other connecting part is provided with a third fixing groove and a fourth fixing groove, and conductive contacts are provided in the third fixing groove and the fourth fixing groove, respectively.

[0007] Optionally, the box includes an outer box and an outer cover. The outer box has an opening, and the outer cover is movably connected to one side of the opening of the outer box. The charging dock is located inside the outer box.

[0008] Optionally, a magnetic element is provided on the first fixing groove, a magnetic element is provided on the second fixing groove, a magnetic element is provided on the third fixing groove, and a magnetic element is provided on the fourth fixing groove.

[0009] Optionally, the charging dock includes an inner box and an inner cover, with a support and a connecting part disposed on the inner cover. The inner cover and the inner box are detachably connected, and the inner box is installed inside the outer box.

[0010] Optionally, the outer cover is provided with an iron sheet, and the inner box is provided with a magnetic component, with the iron sheet and the magnetic component working together to fix it in place.

[0011] Optionally, the inner cover is equipped with a nose support, which is detachably connected to the inner box.

[0012] Optionally, the inner box contains a battery and a PCB board, with the battery electrically connected to the PCB board and the PCB board connected to conductive contacts.

[0013] Optionally, the inner box is provided with a charging display device, which is electrically connected to the PCB board.

[0014] Optionally, the nose bridge is provided with a limiting protrusion.

[0015] Optionally, the inner box has buttons that are connected to the PCB board.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: When the temples of the smart glasses are folded to a left-front-right-rear position, the end of the left front temple is embedded in the first fixing groove and contacts its conductive contact, and the end of the right rear temple is embedded in the third fixing groove and contacts its conductive contact, forming a charging circuit. When the temples are folded to a right-front-left-rear position, the end of the right front temple is embedded in the fourth fixing groove and contacts its conductive contact, and the end of the left rear temple is embedded in the second fixing groove and contacts its conductive contact, similarly forming a charging circuit. The combination of the four fixing grooves and conductive contacts covers all possible orientation combinations after the temples are folded. Regardless of the folding direction, the end of the temple can contact the conductive contact in the corresponding fixing groove. Through the above technical solution, this application realizes the function of charging the smart glasses in any direction after folding. Whether the end of the temple is in a left-front-right-rear or right-front-left-rear position, it can form a stable electrical connection with the conductive contact in the corresponding fixing groove, avoiding the user from repeatedly adjusting the temple position due to incorrect folding direction, significantly improving the convenience and reliability of the charging operation. The fixing grooves also serve as a limit for the temples of the smart glasses, ensuring the stability of the smart glasses during charging. Attached Figure Description

[0023] The following will clearly and completely describe the concept, specific structure, and technical effects of this utility model in conjunction with embodiments and accompanying drawings, so as to fully understand the purpose, features, and effects of this utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, not all of them. Other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are all within the scope of protection of this utility model. Furthermore, all connections / linkages involved in the patent do not simply refer to direct contact between components, but rather to the ability to form a better connection structure by adding or reducing connecting accessories according to specific implementation conditions. The various technical features in this utility model can be combined interactively without contradicting each other.

[0024] This utility model provides a smart glasses case, including: a case body 1; a charging base 2 installed inside the case body, a support part 201 and two connecting parts 202, the two connecting parts being respectively arranged on both sides of the support part, one connecting part being provided with a first fixing groove 203 and a second fixing groove 204, and conductive contacts being provided in the first fixing groove 203 and the second fixing groove 204 respectively, and the other connecting part being provided with a third fixing groove 205 and a fourth fixing groove 206, and conductive contacts being provided in the third fixing groove 205 and the fourth fixing groove 206 respectively.

[0025] The fixing slots are recessed structures used to accommodate the ends of the temples of the smart glasses. These slots can be formed using injection molding or machining processes, and the inner walls of the slots are equipped with conductive pins as conductive contacts. The four fixing slots correspond to the left front, right rear, right front, and left rear positions of the folded temples, respectively, covering different folding configurations through spatial arrangement. The conductive contacts are metal contact points located within the fixing slots; specifically, they are pins that form an electrical connection with the charging contacts at the ends of the temples.

[0026] In implementation, when the temples of the smart glasses are folded to a left-front-right-rear position, the end of the left front temple is inserted into the first fixing groove 203 and contacts its conductive contact, while the end of the right rear temple is inserted into the third fixing groove 205 and contacts its conductive contact, forming a charging circuit. When the temples are folded to a right-front-left-rear position, the end of the right front temple is inserted into the fourth fixing groove 206 and contacts its conductive contact, while the end of the left rear temple is inserted into the second fixing groove 204 and contacts its conductive contact, similarly forming a charging circuit. The combination of the four fixing grooves and conductive contacts covers all possible orientation combinations after the temples are folded. Regardless of the folding direction, the end of the temple can contact the conductive contact in the corresponding fixing groove. Through the above technical solution, this application realizes the function of charging the smart glasses in any direction after folding. Regardless of whether the temple ends are in the left-front-right-rear or right-front-left-rear position, they can form a stable electrical connection with the conductive contacts in the corresponding fixing slots. This avoids users having to repeatedly adjust the temple positions due to incorrect folding direction, significantly improving the convenience and reliability of charging operations. The fixing slots also serve as a limit for the temples of the smart glasses, ensuring the stability of the smart glasses during charging.

[0027] Compared to existing technologies, traditional solutions only have two fixed charging positions, with contact coverage less than a quarter of that of this solution. This application, through a combination of four fixed slots, expands the effective contact area to four times that of traditional solutions. It also overcomes the inherent drawback of traditional technologies that require a specific folding method to achieve charging.

[0028] Through the above technical solution, this application enables the smart glasses to establish charging contacts in any folded state, eliminating user operation direction restrictions. There is no need to pay attention to the folding direction of the temples during charging. This design effectively reduces the probability of accidental operation and improves the ease of use of the charging device.

[0029] In some embodiments, the housing 1 includes an outer box 101 and an outer cover 102. The outer box 101 has an opening, and the outer cover 102 is movably connected to one side of the opening of the outer box 101. The charging dock 2 is located inside the outer box 101.

[0030] The outer box 101 refers to the main structure that forms the accommodating space, used to carry the charging base 2 and the internal circuit components; the outer cover 102 refers to the independent component that covers the opening, used to form a sealed space and protect the internal components.

[0031] In practice, the charging base 2 is installed inside the outer box 101, and the outer cover 102 can be moved at the opening of the outer box 101. After the outer cover 102 is opened, the smart glasses are placed on the charging base 2 from the opening, and then the outer cover 102 is closed to protect the smart glasses.

[0032] Specifically, the box body 1 is made of soft material. The outer box 101 and the outer cover 102 are integrally formed. The outer cover 102 is formed by extending one side of the opening of the outer box 101. Because it is made of soft material, the outer cover 102 can move at the opening of the outer box 101. The charging base 2 itself is made of hard material. After the charging base 2 is installed in the outer box 101, the charging base 2 can also support the outer box 101 and keep the outer box 101 in a specific shape. The use of soft material has the advantages of comfortable grip and easy carrying.

[0033] In some cases, the box body 1 can also be made entirely of rigid material, and the outer cover 102 and the outer box 101 can be opened and closed on one side by hinges or pivots, or the outer cover 102 and the outer box 101 can be connected by a completely separable snap-fit ​​connection.

[0034] In some embodiments, a magnetic element (not shown in the figure) is provided on the first fixing groove 203, a magnetic element is provided on the second fixing groove 204, a magnetic element is provided on the third fixing groove 205, and a magnetic element is provided on the fourth fixing groove 206.

[0035] The magnetic component refers to a part capable of generating magnetic attraction, which can be implemented using a permanent magnet or electromagnet, used to form an adsorption effect with the metal part at the end of the temple of the smart glasses. The first fixing groove 203, the second fixing groove 204, the third fixing groove 205, and the fourth fixing groove 206 are recessed structures within the charging base 2 used to accommodate and fix the end of the temple. These can be formed through injection molding or stamping processes, and their internal space is adapted to the shape of the temple end. The magnetic component is embedded in the inner wall or bottom of the fixing groove, guiding the temple end into the corresponding position through magnetic force.

[0036] Specifically, when the temples of the smart glasses are folded into either a left-front-right-rear or right-front-left-rear configuration, the metal component at the end of the temple approaches the magnetic component in either of the mounting slots. The magnetic force then drives the temple end to automatically adjust its position, ensuring it accurately enters the corresponding slot. At this point, the conductive contacts within the mounting slot and the charging contacts at the temple end make close contact due to the magnetic attraction, forming a stable electrical connection. This process does not require the user to manually adjust the folding direction of the temples; instead, positioning is automatically completed through the physical properties of magnetic attraction.

[0037] Furthermore, an installation groove is provided at the bottom of the inner cover 208 corresponding to each fixing groove, and a magnetic component is installed in the installation groove. A magnetic component is provided on the upper side of the inner cover 208, and a metal component such as an iron sheet is provided on the outer cover 102. When the outer cover 102 covers the outer box 101, the iron sheet on the outer cover 102 will be attracted by the magnetic component on the inner cover 208 to form a magnetic fixation, so that the outer cover 102 is stably covered on the outer box 101.

[0038] Compared to existing technologies, traditional charging devices only use mechanical positioning to limit the folding direction of the temples, requiring users to place the temples in a specific way for charging. This application, however, uses magnetic-assisted positioning, allowing the temples to be attracted to the corresponding mounting slots in different folding states, eliminating user operational limitations and improving charging compatibility and convenience.

[0039] Through the above technical solution, this application solves the problem that the end point of the temple of smart glasses cannot correspond to the charging contact after folding, so that the temple can automatically align with the conductive contact in the fixing groove through magnetic attraction in any folded state, ensuring that the charging process is completed reliably, while reducing the complexity of user operation.

[0040] In some embodiments, the charging dock 2 includes an inner box 207 and an inner cover 208, with a support portion 201 and a connecting portion 202 disposed on the inner cover 208, and the inner cover 208 and the inner box 207 being detachably connected.

[0041] The inner box 207 refers to the main structure of the charging base 2, which houses core components such as the battery and circuit board. The inner cover 208 is a movable part covering the inner box 207, made of flexible silicone or rigid plastic, and detachably connected to the inner box 207 via a snap-fit ​​structure or screws. The support 201 is a curved raised area on the surface of the inner cover 208, which can be implemented with an arc-shaped protrusion matching the folding trajectory of the temples, providing clearance for temples at different folding angles. The detachable connection refers to the separate assembly relationship between the inner cover 208 and the inner box 207, allowing the inner cover 208 to be replaced independently.

[0042] In implementation, the inner box 207 is set as the basic component for fixing and supporting the charging module, and the inner cover 208 is detachably connected to cover the surface of the inner box 207 to form a complete charging base 2. The support part 201 and the connecting part 202 are integrated on the contact surface of the inner cover 208. When the temples are placed in different folding directions, their end contacts are guided into the corresponding fixing grooves. The support part 201 refers to the curved raised area provided on the surface of the inner cover 208. Specifically, it can be implemented by adopting an arc-shaped protrusion that matches the folding trajectory of the temples. The detachable feature of the inner cover 208 allows for the replacement of the matching inner cover 208 with different curvatures according to the size differences of smart glasses. For example, for models with shorter temples, an inner cover 208 with a larger curvature of the support part 201 is used, and for models with longer temples, an inner cover 208 with a more gently curved support part 201 is used, thereby ensuring that the ends of various temples can accurately abut the conductive contacts.

[0043] Compared to existing technologies, traditional charging docks 2 use a one-piece fixed structure, which can only accommodate temples with a single folding configuration. Meanwhile, the detachable structure allows for the replacement of inner covers 208 of different sizes, resolving the contact misalignment issue caused by differences in temple folding configurations.

[0044] Through the above technical solution, this application enables the charging base 2 to be compatible with two folded states: left front and right rear or right front and left rear. At the same time, by replacing the inner cover 208, it can adapt to smart glasses of different sizes, ensuring that the temple contacts and charging contacts always maintain effective contact.

[0045] In some embodiments, the inner cover 208 is provided with a nose support 209, which is detachably connected to the inner box 207.

[0046] The nose pad 209 refers to the support structure located in the inner cover 208 of the charging base 2. Specifically, it can be manufactured using injection molding with a frame featuring a curved support surface, the curvature of which matches the shape of the nose pads on the smart glasses. This structure provides support and positioning for the nose pads during charging, ensuring that the contacts at the temple ends maintain contact pressure with the charging contacts. The detachable connection refers to a non-fixed assembly method between the nose pad 209 and the inner box 207. This can be achieved through a snap-fit ​​connection or a magnetic connection. A snap-fit ​​connection can use a combination of elastic claws and slots, while a magnetic connection can embed a magnet at the bottom of the nose pad 209 and have a corresponding magnetic sheet in the inner box 207. This connection method allows the nose pad 209 to be replaced to accommodate different sizes of smart glasses.

[0047] During implementation, after pressing the nose pad 209 on the charging base 2 and placing the smart glasses on the charging base 2, the nose pad 209 provides support and positioning for the nose pad part of the glasses during the charging process, so that the contact points at the ends of the temples maintain contact pressure with the charging contacts and keep the smart glasses stable.

[0048] Furthermore, the nose support 209 has a locking head at the bottom and a locking slot on the inner cover 208. The locking head on the nose support 209 is locked in the locking slot. At the same time, the inner box 207 has a through hole and the nose support 209 has a screw hole. The nose support 209 can be fixed to the inner box 207 by screws.

[0049] In some embodiments, the inner box 207 contains a battery (not shown) and a PCB board 213, the battery is electrically connected to the PCB board 213, and the PCB board 213 is connected to conductive contacts.

[0050] Here, "battery" refers to a rechargeable energy storage unit, specifically a lithium-ion battery or a polymer lithium battery, used to provide power to the conductive contacts. "PCB board 213" refers to a printed circuit board, specifically a multi-layer circuit board integrating a control chip and sensor module, used to monitor the on / off status of each conductive contact in real time and regulate the battery output current. "Electrical connection" refers to the physical connection between the battery and PCB board 213 achieved through wires or flexible circuit boards, specifically fixed by soldering or plugging to ensure stable power transmission to PCB board 213. "Conductive contacts" are metal parts that contact the charging contacts on the temples of the smart glasses, specifically copper alloy gold-plated springs or magnetic electrodes, used to establish a circuit connection when the temples are folded.

[0051] The battery and PCB board 213 are electrically connected to form a power supply circuit. The PCB board 213 is connected to conductive contacts distributed in multiple fixing slots via circuitry. When the temples of the smart glasses are folded to different positions, the PCB board 213 dynamically distributes power based on the contact state, supplying power only to the contact pairs that are in effective contact. The battery, as an independent power source, achieves multi-path power distribution through the PCB board 213. Regardless of whether the temples are in a left-front-right-rear or right-front-left-rear position, the PCB board 213 can automatically identify effective contacts and establish a stable circuit. The battery and PCB board 213 are integrated inside the inner box 207, and the optimized spatial layout reduces circuit length and lowers power transmission loss.

[0052] Compared to existing technologies, traditional charging devices rely solely on fixed-position conductive contacts for power supply and cannot automatically recognize the folding direction of the temples. This solution, through the coordinated control of the PCB board 213 and the battery, forms a power supply network that dynamically responds to the contact state, eliminating the need for fixed contact pair positions and resolving charging failures caused by incorrect temple folding direction. The limitation of existing technologies, where a single power supply path cannot adapt to multiple contact combinations, is eliminated, significantly improving charging stability.

[0053] Through the above technical solution, this application enables smart glasses to automatically match effective conductive contact pairs and establish a stable circuit in different folding states, avoiding charging failures caused by incorrect temple positioning, and improving charging efficiency and device compatibility. Users can complete charging without adjusting the temple folding direction, thus improving operational convenience.

[0054] In some embodiments, the inner box 207 is provided with a charging display device 210, which is electrically connected to the PCB board 213.

[0055] The charging display device 210 is an indicator module used to provide feedback on the charging status. It can be implemented using LED lights or a display screen, and it establishes data interaction with the PCB board 213 through circuit signals. The electrical connection of the PCB board 213 refers to the establishment of a stable electrical path through wires or soldering. It can be implemented using FPC flexible boards or copper foil circuits, and is used to transmit current and voltage information during the charging process to the display device.

[0056] The charging display device 210 is connected to the signal output terminal of the PCB board 213 via a wire. When the temple contact makes contact with the conductive contact in the fixing slot, the PCB board 213 detects a closed circuit and generates a trigger signal. This signal is identified by a preset voltage threshold or current change pattern, thereby driving the display device to switch its operating state. For example, when the temple contact is not aligned, the PCB board 213 detects an open circuit, and the display device remains off; when the contact is correctly aligned and the charging current reaches the set range, the display device is activated and remains constantly lit. This process forms a closed-loop control system through the real-time monitoring function of the PCB board 213 and the linkage feedback of the display device.

[0057] Compared to existing technologies, traditional charging cases lack a status feedback mechanism, relying solely on physical structure to ensure contact. When the temples are folded in the wrong direction, users cannot determine whether charging is effective by the device's appearance and must wait until the charging time is complete to confirm. This solution, however, uses a built-in electronic detection and display module to provide visual feedback the instant contact occurs, eliminating the need to rely on charging time to determine the contact status.

[0058] Through the above technical solution, this application enables the visual recognition of charging status, allowing users to receive clear indication of the charging progress immediately after placing the smart glasses. When the temples are folded in the wrong direction, causing the contacts to not make contact, the display device remains inactive, prompting the user to adjust the temple position. This mechanism effectively avoids invalid charging waits caused by contact misalignment and shortens the verification time during the charging preparation phase.

[0059] In some embodiments, the nose support 209 is provided with a limiting protrusion 211.

[0060] The nose bridge 209 refers to the support structure used to support the bridge of the nose of the glasses. It can be manufactured using injection molding and has anti-slip textures on the surface to enhance friction. The limiting protrusion 211 refers to the protruding structure extending along the edge of the nose bridge 209. It can be an arc-shaped baffle integrally formed with the nose bridge 209, with a protrusion height of 1-3 mm to form a physical barrier.

[0061] During implementation, the nose bridge 209 supports the smart glasses, and the baffle on the nose bridge 209 also limits the frame of the smart glasses, further ensuring the stability of the smart glasses during charging.

[0062] In some embodiments, the inner box 207 is provided with a button 212, which is connected to the PCB board 213.

[0063] The button 212 is a physical trigger device located inside the charging case to receive user operation commands. It can be implemented as a tactile switch, a push-button, or a slide switch, responding to user pressing or sliding actions through a mechanical structure and circuit connection. The PCB board 213 is a printed circuit board integrating control circuitry and a signal processing module. It can be composed of multi-layer copper-clad laminates soldered with electronic components. Its electrical connection to the button 212 is achieved through circuit layout, converting the electrical signals triggered by the button 212 into control commands that are transmitted to the battery management module.

[0064] In practice, when a user operates button 212, the internal contacts of button 212 close, forming a closed circuit and sending an electrical signal to PCB board 213. The preset control program within PCB board 213 receives the signal and executes the corresponding function according to preset logic. For example, when starting the charging process, PCB board 213 controls the battery to output current to the conductive contacts; when stopping charging, it cuts off the current output. Through this physical operation and electrical signal conversion mechanism, the user can directly control the switching of the charging state without relying on the temple folding direction and the contact state of the charging contacts.
