[0037] 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, and 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.
[0038] It should be noted that when a component is said to be "connected" to another component, it can be directly connected to the other component or it can be connected to a component in between. When a component is said to be "set on" another component, it can be directly set on the other component or it may be set to a component in between.
[0039] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application belongs. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to limit the scope of the application. The term "and / or" as used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.
[0040] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, this application provides a head-mounted smart device 100, including a smart glasses assembly 10 and an extension lens assembly 20. The smart glasses assembly 10 includes a frame 11, which includes two lens frames 111 and a bridging portion 112 connected to the two lens frames 111. The extension lens assembly 20 includes an extension lens 21 and a snap-fit member 22, which can snap the extension lens 21 to the bridging portion 112 via the snap-fit member 22.
[0041] The smart glasses component 10 and the extension lens component 20 can be designed separately, which reduces maintenance costs and increases upgrade flexibility. Users can replace or upgrade the extension lens component 20 as needed without replacing the entire device. This design reduces material waste and allows for customization to meet different functional requirements, improving the product's market adaptability.
[0042] The extender lens 21 can be snapped onto the bridging portion 112 via the snap-fit member 22. This eliminates the need for additional components on the smart glasses assembly 10, allowing the bridging portion 112 to engage with the snap-fit member 22, thus reducing the cost of the head-mounted smart device 100. The extender lens 21 can be quickly and stably snapped onto the bridging portion 112 via the snap-fit member 22, ensuring a stable mounting of the extender lens assembly 20 onto the smart glasses assembly 10. This facilitates easy installation and removal of the extender lens 21 from the smart glasses assembly 10. When the extender lens assembly 20 is mounted on the smart glasses assembly 10, the force application point of the extender lens assembly 20 and the force receiving point of the smart glasses assembly 10 are concentrated in the center, ensuring the stability of the head-mounted smart device 100.
[0043] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the specific functions of the smart glasses component 10 are not strictly limited and can be referred to existing technologies, which will not be elaborated further here; for example, the smart glasses component 10 integrates multiple functions, such as displaying information, navigation, and taking pictures.
[0044] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the smart glasses assembly 10 also includes optical elements 12 and two temples 13. The optical elements 12 are mounted on the lens frame 111; the two temples 13 are respectively mounted on their corresponding lens frames 111. The specific configuration of the optical elements 12 and the temples 13 can refer to existing technologies and will not be further elaborated here. For example, the optical elements 12 can be optical waveguides or other visual aids; the temples 13 can be connected to the lens frame 111 by screws, clips, or hinges. There can be two optical elements 12, with each optical element 12 mounted on its corresponding lens frame 111.
[0045] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 5As shown, the structure of the lens holder 111 is not strictly limited, as long as it can support the optical element 12; for example, the lens holder 111 may have a ring-shaped or semi-ring-shaped structure and be arranged around the outer periphery of the optical element 12. The structure of the bridging portion 112 is also not strictly limited, as long as it connects the two lens holders 111; for example, the bridging portion 112 may have a roughly strip-shaped structure. The bridging portion 112 may be equipped with a detection element 14; for example, the detection element 14 may be an ultraviolet (UV) detector that monitors the UV intensity of the external environment in real time and displays relevant information through the optical element 12 to remind the user to take appropriate protective measures.
[0046] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the extender 21 is a light-blocking lens, which is located on the front side of the frame 11 (referencing the user's perspective, i.e., the light-blocking lens is located on the side of the frame away from the user). In actual use, light-blocking lenses with different light transmittance can be replaced according to the ambient light to enhance the user experience.
[0047] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the extension lens 21 is a corrective lens and can be positioned opposite to the optical element 12; this allows the smart glasses assembly 10 to provide both vision correction and augmented reality or other visual assistance functions. Specifically, when the smart glasses assembly 10 is an augmented reality glasses, the corrective lens can be positioned inside the optical element 12, allowing the user to see both the real-world environment and the augmented reality display clearly; alternatively, the corrective lens can be positioned outside the optical element 12, allowing the user to see the real-world environment clearly.
[0048] In this embodiment, as Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the shape of the snap-fit member 22 is not strictly limited, as long as the snap-fit member 22 can be snapped into and fixed on the bridging part 112. For example, the snap-fit member 22 is roughly C-shaped.
[0049] In this embodiment, as Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the snap-fit component has a mounting groove 225, and part of the structure of the extender lens 21 is located within the mounting groove 225 and fixed by snap-fit or adhesive. Preferably, the extender lens 21 can be fixed in the mounting groove 225 of the snap-fit component 22 by adhesive, ensuring its stability and durability. This fixing method is both firm and concealed, and does not affect the appearance of the smart glasses assembly 10. The snap-fit component 22 has a clearance opening 226, which exposes the detection element located on the bridging portion 112; ensuring that the extender lens assembly 20 does not affect the normal operation of other functional modules.
[0050] In this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 5As shown, the snap-fit member 22 is made of a non-magnetic material to avoid interference with the magnetic sensor in the smart glasses assembly 10. More preferably, the snap-fit member 22 is made of a non-metallic material. Non-metallic materials help reduce overall weight and improve wearing comfort, which is especially important for the head-mounted smart device 100 worn for extended periods. In addition, non-metallic materials have good elasticity and durability, making it easier for users to install or remove the extension lens 21, and also accommodating different sized bridging portions 112 to ensure a tight fit between the snap-fit member 22 and the bridging portion 112. For example, the snap-fit member 22 can be made of plastic, rubber, etc.
[0051] In this embodiment, as Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the snap-fit member 22 has a snap-fit groove 221 that engages with the bridging portion 112 to snap the snap-fit member 22 onto the bridging portion 112. By applying force to the snap-fit member 22 and deforming it, the expansion mirror 21 can be removed from or inserted into the snap-fit groove 221. The shape and size of the snap-fit groove 221 match the bridging portion 112, ensuring that the snap-fit member 22 is securely fixed to the bridging portion 112.
[0052] In this embodiment, as Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the wall of the snap-fit groove 221 is roughly C-shaped. This design ensures structural stability, effectively preventing the extender lens 21 from detaching from the bridging part 112, and facilitates the installation and removal of the extender lens 21. Furthermore, this structure not only facilitates the entry and exit of the bridging part 112 but also provides a certain elastic pressure after snapping, ensuring a tight fit between the snap-fit member 22 and the bridging part 112. The snap-fit groove 221 has an opening 222 for the bridging part 112 to enter and exit, with the opening 222 facing away from the extender lens 21. The C-shaped structure of the snap-fit member 22 allows it to fit tightly against the bridging part 112 while providing the opening 222 for the bridging part 112 to enter and exit. Thus, the user can install the snap-fit member 22 onto the bridging part 112 from the side of the smart glasses assembly 10, greatly improving the ease of installation.
[0053] In this embodiment, as Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the snap-fit member 22 includes a main body 223 and two snap-fit parts 224. The two snap-fit parts 224 are located on both sides of the main body 223 and extend towards each other to form a snap-fit groove 221 together with the main body 223. An opening 222 is formed between the two snap-fit parts 224. The main body 223 serves as a supporting structure for the snap-fit member 22 and has sufficient strength and rigidity to ensure the stable installation of the expansion lens assembly 20. The opening 222 formed between the two snap-fit parts 224 allows the bridging part 112 to enter and exit.
[0054] In this embodiment, as Figures 3 to 5As shown, the bridging portion 112 has a guide surface 1121 for guiding the snap-fit portion 224. This design improves the accuracy and convenience of installation. The guide surface 1121 can be designed as a slope or curved surface, etc., so as to guide the snap-fit portion 224 to smoothly snap into the bridging portion 112 during the installation of the snap-fit component 22. The addition of the guide surface 1121 allows the user to easily complete the installation of the snap-fit component 22 without precise alignment, greatly improving installation efficiency. There are two guide surfaces 1121, located on opposite sides of the bridging portion 112, which can guide the snap-fit portion 224 to smoothly snap into the bridging portion 112.
[0055] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as the combination of these technical features does not contradict each other, it should be considered to be within the scope of this specification. When technical features of different embodiments are embodied in the same drawing, it can be regarded as the drawing also disclosing examples of combinations of the various embodiments involved.
[0056] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and their descriptions are quite specific and detailed. However, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the protection scope of this application.
