[0012] The controller is electrically connected to the sensor, and the controller is used to control the start of the optical engine when the sensor detects that a user is wearing the smart glasses for picking goods in the warehouse.

[0013] Optionally, the sensor includes a pressure sensor disposed on the ear loop, such that the pressure sensor can detect a pressure value when the user wears the smart glasses for picking goods in the warehouse; and / or,

[0014] The sensor includes a temperature sensor disposed on the ear loop so that it can detect temperature values ​​when the user wears the smart glasses for picking goods in the warehouse.

[0016] Optionally, the smart glasses for picking in the warehouse also include a battery and a charging dock, the charging dock being electrically connected to the battery to charge the battery;

[0017] The battery is installed inside the temple and electrically connected to the optical engine and the camera. The charging base is installed on the temple and includes a first magnetic part and a charging port exposed on the outer surface of the temple. The first magnetic part is used to magnetically attract the charging head so that the spring pin of the charging head can cooperate with the charging port to achieve electrical connection.

[0018] Optionally, the smart glasses for picking goods in the warehouse also include a microphone, which is installed at the bottom of the lens mounting part and the microphone is set to pick up sound towards the user's mouth.

[0019] Optionally, the temple includes an extension and an ear loop, the extension being connected between the frame and the ear loop, and the ear loop being used to hang on the user's ear;

[0020] The smart glasses for picking goods in the warehouse also include a speaker, which is installed at one end of the extension near the ear hook and is located inside the extension.

[0021] Optionally, the smart glasses for picking goods in the warehouse also include a positioning module, which is installed inside the temple of the glasses and is used to locate the user's location information in the warehouse.

[0022] According to a third aspect of this disclosure, a smart glasses storage cabinet is provided, including a cabinet body and the aforementioned smart glasses for picking goods in the warehouse, wherein the cabinet body is provided with a receiving slot for accommodating the smart glasses for picking goods in the warehouse.

[0023] Optionally, the smart glasses for picking in the warehouse also include a battery and a charging base. The charging base is electrically connected to the battery to charge the battery.

[0026] Through the above technical solution, users can wear smart glasses for warehouse picking. Since the optical engine is mounted on the temple near the frame and inside the temple, with its output side facing the lens, and the lens has a waveguide element with an input and output region, the light emitted by the optical engine, forming the picking guidance image, can enter the waveguide element through the input region and exit through the output region to the user's eye. This allows the user to see the picking guidance image and obtain picking guidance information from it, thus guiding their warehouse picking work. Furthermore, while seeing the picking guidance image, the user can also see the actual warehouse scene through the lens, facilitating picking based on the image.

[0027] Furthermore, since a camera is installed in the connecting part, users wearing smart glasses for warehouse picking can have images of themselves picking goods within the warehouse captured by the camera on the smart glasses. Moreover, the camera's placement in the connecting part ensures it is centered in the user's field of vision when wearing the smart glasses, facilitating consistency between the information captured by the camera and what the user sees, and thus improving the camera's ability to accurately capture images of the user picking goods within the warehouse.

[0028] Compared to related technologies where users need to hold a mobile terminal such as a smartphone to view order information, the smart glasses for warehouse picking provided in this disclosure can be worn by users to free their hands during the picking process. Users do not need to look down to view order information. Users can directly see picking guidance images and the real scene inside the warehouse through the smart glasses and pick goods according to the picking guidance images. This helps to reduce the picking burden of users, shorten picking time, and improve warehouse picking efficiency.

[0029] Other features and advantages of this disclosure will be described in detail in the following detailed description section. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0041] The specific embodiments of this disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustration and explanation only and are not intended to limit this disclosure.

[0042] In this disclosure, unless otherwise stated, directional terms such as "up," "down," "top," and "bottom" are generally defined as up, down, top, and bottom in the normal use state (i.e., when the user is wearing the smart glasses used for picking in the warehouse) (see reference for details). Figure 1 (As shown), it is only for the convenience of describing this disclosure and simplifying the description, and is not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or a specific orientation construction and operation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this disclosure. "Inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer contours of the corresponding components. In addition, the terms "first," "second," etc., are used to distinguish one element from another and do not have any order or importance.

[0043] In the description of this disclosure, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "set up," "connect," "link," and "install" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this disclosure according to the specific circumstances.

[0044] In related technologies, the main reason for the low efficiency of in-warehouse picking is that when picking goods in the warehouse, pickers usually need to hold a mobile device such as a mobile phone to check order information while searching for and picking up goods. During the picking process, pickers constantly pick up their mobile phones to check order information or take pictures, and then put down their mobile phones to use both hands to move goods (especially heavy or large items). This obviously increases the operational burden of pickers, thereby reducing the efficiency of in-warehouse picking.

[0045] Therefore, in related technologies, warehouse picking efficiency is low, and there is a lack of smart glasses that are convenient for pickers to wear, lightweight, and helpful for picking goods.

[0046] In view of this, such as Figures 1 to 8 As shown, according to a first aspect of this disclosure, a smart glasses 100 for warehouse picking is provided, including a frame 10, an optical engine 20, lenses 30, and a camera 40. The frame 10 includes a frame 11 and temples 12. The frame 11 includes two lens mounting portions 111 and a connecting portion 112 connecting the two lens mounting portions 111. The optical engine 20 is mounted on one end of the temples 12 near the frame 11 and located on the inner side of the temples 12 (i.e., the opposite side of the two temples 12). The light-emitting side of the optical engine 20 faces... The optical engine 20 emits light to form a picking guidance image. The lens 30 is mounted on the lens mounting part 111. The lens 30 has a waveguide element 31. The waveguide element 31 has a coupling-in region 32 and a coupling-out region 33. The coupling-in region 32 is used to receive the light emitted by the optical engine 20, and the coupling-out region 33 is used to guide the light transmitted inside the waveguide element 31 to the user's eye. The camera 40 is mounted on the connecting part 112. The camera 40 is used to collect image information of the user picking goods in the warehouse.

[0047] It should be noted here that picking guidance images refer to images used to guide users in picking items from the warehouse. For example, picking guidance images can be text information, image information, or a combination of text and image information. As an example, picking guidance images may include picking lists, item numbers, the location of items in the warehouse, item names, pictures of items, etc., and this disclosure does not limit this.

[0048] In addition, camera 40 can continuously collect image information during the user's picking process, and can also collect image information of the picked goods after the user has picked them. The image information of the user picking goods in the warehouse collected by camera 40 can be used to monitor the user's picking process and determine whether the user has picked the correct goods.

[0049] Through the above technical solution, users can wear smart glasses 100 for warehouse picking when performing warehouse picking. Since the optical engine 20 is mounted on the temple 12 near the frame 11 and located inside the temple 12, with the light-emitting side of the optical engine 20 facing the lens 30, and the lens 30 has a waveguide element 31 with an insertion region 32 and an output region 33, the light emitted by the optical engine 20 constituting the picking guidance image can enter the waveguide element 31 from the insertion region 32 and be guided to the user's eyes from the output region 33. This allows the user to see the picking guidance image and obtain picking guidance information from it, thus guiding the user in warehouse picking. Furthermore, while seeing the picking guidance image, the user can also see the actual scene inside the warehouse through the lens 30, facilitating warehouse picking based on the picking guidance image.

[0050] Furthermore, since the connecting part 112 is equipped with a camera 40, after the user wears the smart glasses 100 for picking goods in the warehouse, the camera 40 on the smart glasses 100 can also collect image information of the user picking goods in the warehouse. Moreover, the camera 40 is mounted on the connecting part 112 so that it is located in the center of the user's field of vision when the user wears the smart glasses 100. This ensures that the information collected by the camera 40 is consistent with the information seen by the user, thereby facilitating the camera 40 to effectively collect image information of the user picking goods in the warehouse.

[0051] Compared to related technologies where users need to hold a mobile terminal such as a smartphone to view order information, the smart glasses 100 for warehouse picking provided in this disclosure can be worn by users to free their hands during the picking process. Users do not need to look down to view order information. Users can directly see picking guidance images and the real scene inside the warehouse through the smart glasses 100 and pick goods according to the picking guidance images. This helps to reduce the picking burden of users, shorten picking time, and improve warehouse picking efficiency.

[0052] It should be noted that the aforementioned waveguide element 31 is a dielectric device with a specific layered structure. Its core consists of a high-refractive-index core layer (such as silicon, silicon nitride, or polymer) and a low-refractive-index cladding layer (such as silicon dioxide or air), forming a "core-cladding" structure. The refractive index of the core layer is greater than that of the cladding layer to create total internal reflection conditions. The coupling region 32 of the waveguide element 31 is typically designed as a prism, mirror, or micro / nano grating (such as a surface relief grating or a volume holographic grating). By adjusting the incident light angle, the light emitted by the optomechanical 20 is coupled into the core layer at a direction greater than the critical angle, allowing the light to propagate within the core layer in a sawtooth path with total internal reflection. The coupling region 33 of the waveguide element 31 employs an array of semi-transparent and semi-reflective mirrors or a diffraction grating structure to gradually disrupt the total internal reflection conditions, directionally deflecting the light constrained within the waveguide and guiding it to the user's eye, thus achieving efficient transmission and imaging of optical signals.

[0053] Optionally, the waveguide element 31 may also have a transition region for changing the propagation direction of light from the coupling-in region 32 to the coupling-out region 33, so that the coupling-in region 32 and the coupling-out region 33 can be set at any suitable position on the lens 30 as needed, so as to ensure that the coupling-out region 33 can guide light to the user's eye.

[0054] When light enters the coupling region 32, it undergoes a first diffraction. The diffracted light then propagates within the waveguide element 31 in the form of total internal reflection. Upon reaching the transition region, it undergoes a second diffraction. The diffracted light then continues to propagate within the waveguide element 31 in the form of total internal reflection. Upon reaching the output region 33, it undergoes a third diffraction. The diffracted light then reaches the user's eye.

[0055] Because different users have different eye habits and vision conditions, their preferences or requirements regarding the distance between the picking guidance images and their eyes may differ. Therefore, as an implementation method, such as Figure 3 As shown, the optical engine 20 includes a display source 21, a projection lens 22, and an actuator 23. The projection lens 22 is located on the light-emitting side of the display source 21, and the actuator 23 is connected to the projection lens 22 and is used to adjust the distance between the projection lens 22 and the display source 21.

[0056] Since the projection lens 22 is located on the light-emitting side of the display source 21, the image emitted by the display source 21 will enter the coupling area 32 after passing through the projection lens 22. Therefore, the distance between the projection lens 22 and the display source 21 can be adjusted by the actuator 23, thereby adjusting the distance between the image projected by the projection lens 22 and the coupling area 32, and thus adjusting the distance between the picking guidance image seen by the user and the user's eyes, so that the user can adjust the display distance of the picking guidance image according to their own preferences or needs.

[0057] This disclosure does not limit the type of actuator 23. Optionally, actuator 23 can be a voice coil motor or a piezoelectric motor, as long as it can adjust the distance between the projection lens 22 and the display source 21.

[0058] This disclosure does not limit the specific structure of the display source 21. As one embodiment, the display source 21 may include a display screen (e.g., a MicroLED display screen) and a color combining device. There may be multiple display screens or just one display screen. The color combining device is located on the light-emitting side of the display screen, and the projection lens 22 is located on the light-emitting side of the color combining device. In the embodiment where there are multiple display screens, the multiple display screens are used to emit multiple different monochromatic lights. The multiple display screens are respectively located around the color combining device, and the color combining device is used to fuse the monochromatic lights emitted by the multiple display screens together to form an image. The projection lens 22 may be located on the light-emitting side of the color combining device, and the waveguide element 31 may be located on the side of the projection lens 22 away from the color combining device.

[0059] The multiple displays may include a first display, a second display, and a third display. The first display emits a first monochromatic light, the second display emits a second monochromatic light, and the third display emits a third monochromatic light. Optionally, the first, second, and third monochromatic lights can be any combination of red, green, and blue light; that is, when one of the first, second, and third monochromatic lights is red light, the other two are green and blue light, respectively.

[0060] The color combining device can integrate the first monochromatic light, the second monochromatic light, and the third monochromatic light into a light beam that constitutes a picking guidance image, and then pass the light beam through the projection lens 22 into the coupling area 32.

[0061] Optionally, such as Figure 4 As shown, the smart glasses 100 for picking goods in the warehouse also includes a controller 51 and a communication module 52. The controller 51 and the communication module 52 are installed inside the temple 12. The optical engine 20 and the camera 40 are both electrically connected to the controller 51. The controller 51 is electrically connected to the communication module 52. The communication module 52 is used to communicate with the warehouse server.

[0062] The warehouse server can store information about goods in the warehouse (such as goods number, goods image, and goods location information in the warehouse). The warehouse server can send the picking guidance image of the goods that need to be picked to the controller 51 via the communication module 52, so that the controller 51 controls the optical engine 20 to emit the light that constitutes the picking guidance image, and guides the picking guidance image to the user's eyes via the optical waveguide element 31 to guide the user to pick goods in the warehouse.

[0063] The controller 51 can control the camera 40 to turn on, so that the camera 40 can capture image information of users picking goods in the warehouse. The image information captured by the camera 40 can be uploaded to the warehouse server via the controller 51 and the communication module 52.

[0064] To save energy consumption of the smart glasses 100 used for picking goods in the warehouse and to extend the lifespan of the optical engine 20, as one implementation method, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the temple 12 may include an extension 121 and an ear loop 122. The extension 121 is connected between the frame 11 and the ear loop 122. The ear loop 122 is used to hang on the user's ear. A sensor 70 is provided on the ear loop 122. The controller 51 is electrically connected to the sensor 70. The controller 51 is used to control the optical engine 20 to start when the sensor 70 detects that the user is wearing the smart glasses 100 for picking in the warehouse.

[0065] When a user wears the smart glasses 100 for picking goods in the warehouse, the ear hook 122 is attached to the user's ear. The ear hook 122 is equipped with a sensor 70, which can detect whether the user is wearing the smart glasses 100. The controller 51 can control the optical engine 20 to start when the sensor 70 detects that the user is wearing the smart glasses 100, so that the optical engine 20 does not need to be turned on all the time, thus saving energy.

[0066] When the user removes the smart glasses 100 for picking goods in the warehouse from their ear, the controller 51 can control the optical engine 20 to shut down if the sensor 70 detects that the user is not wearing the smart glasses 100 for picking goods in the warehouse.

[0067] This configuration allows the optical engine 20 to automatically turn on when the user wears the smart glasses 100 for picking goods in the warehouse, and automatically turn off when the user removes the smart glasses 100. This helps to save energy consumption of the smart glasses 100 for picking goods in the warehouse and extend the service life of the optical engine 20. On the other hand, it eliminates the need for the user to manually start the optical engine 20, thus reducing the user's operational burden.

[0068] This disclosure does not limit the specific type of sensor 70; as one implementation, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, sensor 70 may include a pressure sensor disposed on ear loop 122 so that the pressure sensor can detect pressure values ​​when the user wears smart glasses 100 for picking items in the bin.

[0069] Since the pressure sensor is located on the ear loop 122, when the user wears the smart glasses 100 for picking goods in the warehouse, the pressure sensor comes into contact with the user's ear and can detect the pressure value. The pressure sensor can transmit the detected pressure value to the controller 51. When the pressure value detected by the pressure sensor is greater than the preset pressure value, the controller 51 can control the optical engine 20 to start.

[0070] In another implementation, sensor 70 may include a temperature sensor disposed on ear loop 122 so that the temperature sensor can detect temperature values ​​when the user wears the smart glasses 100 for picking goods in the warehouse.

[0071] Since the temperature sensor is located on the ear loop 122, when the user wears the smart glasses 100 for picking goods in the warehouse, the temperature sensor is in contact with or close to the user's ear, thereby detecting the temperature value. The temperature sensor can transmit the detected temperature value to the controller 51. When the temperature value detected by the temperature sensor is greater than the preset temperature value, the controller 51 can control the optical engine 20 to start.

[0072] As another implementation, sensor 70 may include a temperature sensor and a pressure sensor to improve detection accuracy.

[0073] In some implementations, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the ear hook 122 includes a contact portion 1221 and a tail portion 1222. The contact portion 1221 is connected between the extension portion 121 and the tail portion 1222. The contact portion 1221 is used to contact the upper part of the user's ear. The lower surface of the contact portion 1221 protrudes upward from the lower surface of the extension portion 121 and the lower surface of the tail portion 1222. A pressure sensor and / or a temperature sensor are disposed on the lower surface of the contact portion 1221.

[0074] Since the lower surface of the contact portion 1221 protrudes upward beyond the lower surface of the extension portion 121 and the lower surface of the tail portion 1222, and the pressure sensor and / or temperature sensor are disposed on the lower surface of the contact portion 1221, when the user wears the smart glasses 100 for picking goods in the warehouse, the pressure sensor disposed on the lower surface of the contact portion 1221 can detect the pressure value in contact with the ear, and the temperature sensor can detect the temperature value of the ear, thereby helping to ensure that the controller 51 controls the optical engine 20 to be turned on when the user wears the smart glasses 100 for picking goods in the warehouse.

[0075] Furthermore, the lower surface of the contact portion 1221 is made into an upwardly recessed form, which can prevent the pressure sensor from detecting a pressure value when the user places the smart glasses 100 for picking in the warehouse, thus preventing the controller 51 from accidentally controlling the optical engine 20 to turn on.

[0076] This disclosure does not limit the power supply method for the camera 40 and the optical engine 20. As one implementation method, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, the smart glasses 100 for picking goods in the warehouse also includes a battery 80 and a charging base 90. The charging base 90 is electrically connected to the battery 80 to charge the battery 80. The battery 80 is installed inside the temple 12 and is electrically connected to the optical engine 20 and the camera 40. The charging base 90 is installed on the temple 12 and includes a first magnetic part 91 and a charging port 92 exposed on the outer surface of the temple 12. The first magnetic part 91 is used to magnetically attract the charging head 203 so that the spring pin 2031 of the charging head 203 can cooperate with the charging port 92 to achieve electrical connection.

[0077] The battery 80 is electrically connected to the optical engine 20 and the camera 40, providing the power required for their operation. It also allows the smart glasses 100 for picking in the warehouse to be used without always being connected to a fixed power source in the warehouse, which improves the convenience of the smart glasses 100 for picking in the warehouse.

[0078] The charging base 90 is electrically connected to the battery 80 and installed on the temple 12. The charging base 90 includes a first magnetic part 91 and a charging port 92 exposed on the outer surface of the temple 12. Therefore, when the battery 80 needs to be charged, the first magnetic part 91 can be magnetically attracted to the charging head 203, so that the spring pin 2031 of the charging head 203 can cooperate with the charging port 92 to achieve electrical connection, thereby allowing the spring pin 2031 of the charging head 203 to charge the battery 80 through the charging port 92 of the charging base 90.

[0079] Understandably, the spring pin 2031 is also called a pogo pin. A pogo pin is a precision connector used in electronic products such as mobile phones, and is widely used in semiconductor equipment to provide conductive connections. The magnetic attraction of the charging head 203 via the first magnetic part 91 facilitates a stable connection between the spring pin 2031 and the charging port 92, eliminating the need for forceful plugging and unplugging, thus simplifying the connection process and improving the user experience.

[0080] In this disclosure, the battery 80 can also be electrically connected to other electrical devices of the smart glasses 100 for picking in the warehouse. For example, the battery 80 can be electrically connected to one or more of the following: sensor 70, microphone 61, speaker 62, controller 51, communication module 52, and positioning module 53.

[0081] As another embodiment of this disclosure, the smart glasses 100 for warehouse picking may include a plug-in charging dock for use with a plug-in charging head, such as a Type-C charging head and a Type-C charging dock.

[0082] As one implementation method, such as Figure 2 As shown, the smart glasses 100 for picking goods in the warehouse also includes a microphone 61, which is installed at the bottom of the lens mounting part 111, and the microphone 61 is set to pick up sound towards the user's mouth.

[0083] Since the microphone 61 can collect the user's voice, the user can interact with the smart glasses 100 for picking in the warehouse via voice to control the smart glasses 100 for picking in the warehouse.

[0084] For example, microphone 61 can be electrically connected to controller 51. Microphone 61 transmits voice commands issued by the user to controller 51. If the voice command issued by the user matches a preset command, controller 51 can perform corresponding control operations on optical engine 20 or camera 40. Alternatively, controller 51 can transmit the voice command issued by the user to warehouse server via communication module 52. Warehouse server then sends a preset command matching the voice command to controller 51, instructing controller 51 to perform corresponding control operations on optical engine 20 or camera 40. These control operations may include, for example, adjusting the image content of the picking guidance image displayed by optical engine 20, controlling camera 40 to take a picture, or adjusting the distance between projection lens 22 and display source 21, at least one of these operations.

[0085] Furthermore, since the microphone 61 is installed at the bottom of the lens mounting part 111 and the microphone 61 is set to receive sound towards the user's mouth, it is beneficial for the microphone 61 to receive the sound emitted by the user better and to reduce interference from other sounds in the cabin (such as the sounds emitted by other people in the cabin or environmental sounds).

[0086] Optionally, the microphone 61 can be a unidirectional microphone, and an omnidirectional microphone can also be provided on the temple 12.

[0087] As one implementation method, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, the temple 12 includes an extension 121 and an ear loop 122. The extension 121 is connected between the frame 11 and the ear loop 122. The ear loop 122 is used to hang on the user's ear. The smart glasses 100 for picking goods in the warehouse also includes a speaker 62. The speaker 62 is installed at one end of the extension 121 near the ear loop 122, and the speaker 62 is located inside the extension 121 (i.e., the side of the extension 121 closer to the wearer's head).

[0088] The smart glasses 100 for picking goods in the warehouse can send picking guidance voices to users through the speaker 62, thereby assisting users in picking goods in the warehouse and improving the efficiency of picking goods in the warehouse.

[0089] Furthermore, since the ear hook 122 can be hung on the user's ear, and the speaker 62 is installed at the end of the extension 121 near the ear hook 122, and the speaker 62 is located inside the extension 121, the speaker 62 can be located on the temple 12 near the user's ear when the user wears the glasses, making it easier for the user to hear the sound emitted by the speaker 62.

[0090] The speaker 62 can be electrically connected to the controller 51, so that the controller 51 can directly control the speaker 62 to output sound prompt information, or control the speaker 62 to output sound prompt information according to the instructions sent by the warehouse server. This disclosure does not limit this.

[0091] Optionally, such as Figure 4 As shown, the smart glasses 100 for picking goods in the warehouse also includes a positioning module 53, which is installed inside the temple 12. The positioning module 53 is used to locate the user's location information in the warehouse.

[0092] Since the positioning module 53 can locate the user's position within the warehouse, the smart glasses 100 for warehouse picking can have warehouse positioning and navigation functions. For example, the user's position within the warehouse and the optimal path to the target location (such as the location of the goods to be picked and the location where the goods are to be placed) can be displayed in the picking guidance image, allowing the user to obtain their position within the warehouse and the optimal path to the target location through the smart glasses 100, thereby improving the user's warehouse picking efficiency.

[0093] According to a second aspect of this disclosure, a smart glasses storage cabinet 200 is provided, including a cabinet body 201 and the aforementioned smart glasses 100 for picking in the warehouse. The cabinet body 201 is provided with a receiving slot 202 for accommodating the smart glasses 100 for picking in the warehouse.

[0094] After finishing using the smart glasses 100 for picking in the warehouse, the user can place them in the receiving slot 202. On the one hand, the cabinet 201 can store the smart glasses 100 for picking in the warehouse, which helps to prevent the smart glasses 100 from being lost. On the other hand, the cabinet 201 can protect the smart glasses 100 for picking in the warehouse, which helps to prevent the smart glasses 100 from being accidentally damaged.

[0095] Optionally, such as Figures 5 to 7As shown, the smart glasses 100 for picking goods in the warehouse also includes a battery 80 and a charging base 90. The charging base 90 is electrically connected to the battery 80 to charge the battery 80. The battery 80 is installed inside the temple 12 and is electrically connected to the optical engine 20 and the camera 40. The charging base 90 is installed at the end of the temple 12 away from the frame 10. The charging base 90 includes a first magnetic part 91 and a charging port 92 exposed on the outer surface of the temple 12. A charging head 203 is provided in the receiving slot 202. The charging head 203 is used to connect to the power source. The charging head 203 includes a spring pin 2031 and a second magnetic part 2032. The first magnetic part 91 and the second magnetic part 2032 can be magnetically connected during the process of inserting the smart glasses 100 for picking goods in the warehouse into the receiving slot 202, so that the spring pin 2031 cooperates with the charging port 92 to achieve electrical connection.

[0096] Since a charging head 203 is provided inside the receiving slot 202, the charging head 203 is used for electrical connection with the power source. The charging head 203 includes a spring pin 2031 and a second magnetic part 2032. Therefore, the user can place the smart glasses 100 for picking in the warehouse into the receiving slot 202 with the temple 12 facing the receiving slot 202. This allows the first magnetic part 91 and the second magnetic part 2032 to be magnetically connected during the insertion of the smart glasses 100 into the receiving slot 202. This enables the spring pin 2031 to cooperate with the charging port 92 to achieve electrical connection. As a result, the power source can charge the battery 80 sequentially through the spring pin 2031 of the charging head 203 and the charging port 92 of the charging base 90, which helps the smart glasses 100 for picking in the warehouse to have sufficient power for the next use.

[0097] From an operational perspective, after using the smart glasses 100 for picking goods in the warehouse, the user only needs to push the smart glasses 100 into the receiving slot 202, and the first magnetic part 91 and the second magnetic part will automatically engage, thereby allowing the power supply to start charging the battery 80. Operationally, the two operations of connecting the charging head 203 to the charging base 90 and storing the smart glasses 100 in the cabinet 201 are combined into one operation, which helps to reduce the user's operational burden.
