[0046] Smart glasses are wearable electronic devices with a wide range of functions, including but not limited to existing AI glasses, camera glasses, XR (augmented reality) glasses, audio glasses, and Bluetooth glasses. With technological advancements, the functions of smart glasses are becoming increasingly diverse, leading to their wider application in daily life and work.

[0047] However, existing technologies for smart glasses suffer from short battery life. The current common approach is to increase the battery capacity of smart glasses. However, increasing the capacity leads to increased costs and a larger battery size. Due to the limited size of the smart glasses themselves, this solution cannot effectively solve the battery life problem.

[0048] Please see Figures 1 to 3 In response, this application provides a temple assembly 100, including a front temple 10 and a rear temple 50. The front temple 10 is used to connect with the frame of smart glasses. The front temple 10 has a plug-in portion 13, and the plug-in portion 13 has a first electrical connection portion 14 and a snap-fit ​​portion 15. The rear temple 50 is provided with a battery 60, and the rear temple 50 has a plug-in portion 51, and the plug-in portion 51 has a second electrical connection portion 52 and a snap-fit ​​portion 53. The second electrical connection portion 52 is electrically connected to the battery 60, so that when the plug-in portion 51 is plugged into the plug-in portion 13, the first electrical connection portion 14 can be electrically connected to the second electrical connection portion 52, and the snap-fit ​​portion 15 and the snap-fit ​​portion 53 are snap-fitted together.

[0049] In the embodiments of this application, by providing the plug-in portion 13 and the plug-in mating portion 51, the front leg 10 and the rear leg 50 can be plugged into each other. The plug-in portion 13 has a first electrical connection portion 14 and a snap-fit ​​mating portion 15, and the plug-in mating portion 51 has a second electrical connection portion 52 and a snap-fit ​​portion 53. When the battery 60 is depleted, the rear leg 50 can be removed, and the fully charged rear leg 50 can be plugged into the plug-in portion 13 via the plug-in mating portion 51. During the insertion process, the electrical connection between the first electrical connection part 14 and the second electrical connection part 52 can be automatically completed, and the snap-fitting part 15 and the snap-fitting part 53 can be snap-fitted together, thereby completing the replacement of the rear leg 50 and the battery 60. This allows the rear leg 50 and the battery 60 to be replaced quickly. The whole process is simple and convenient. By replacing the battery 60, the battery life problem of smart glasses is effectively solved. Without increasing the capacity of the battery 60 or the size of the glasses, the battery life of the glasses is improved.

[0050] Furthermore, the detachable 50mm rear temples allow users to customize their own temples, thus enhancing the user experience.

[0051] It should be noted that the specific implementation of the plug-in part 13 and the plug-in mating part 51 is not limited. They can be in the form of a plug-in protrusion and a plug-in groove. For example, the plug-in part 13 is a plug-in protrusion and the plug-in mating part 51 is a plug-in groove, or the plug-in part 13 is a plug-in groove and the plug-in mating part 51 is a plug-in protrusion. They can also be in the form of a male socket and a female socket, etc. There is no limitation here. The specific implementation of the first electrical connection part 14 and the second electrical connection part 52 is not limited. They can be in the form of a wiring terminal and a wiring port, or they can be in the form of a contact-type electrical connection part, such as a pogo pin, etc. There is no limitation here. The specific implementation of the snap-fit ​​part 53 and the snap-fit ​​mating part 15 is not limited. They can be in the form of a snap and a snap protrusion, or they can be in the form of a snap groove and a snap protrusion, etc. There is no limitation here.

[0052] Specifically, the specific implementation of the insertion and mating part 51 is not limited. It can be integrally formed with other parts on the rear leg 50, or it can be composed of a separate part. No limitation is made here.

[0053] Please refer to the following: Figures 4 to 7 In some embodiments, the insertion portion 13 includes an insertion slot, and the rear leg 50 includes a rear leg body 54 and an insertion assembly 70. The battery 60 is disposed on the rear leg body 54. The insertion assembly 70 is disposed on the rear leg body 54 and at least partially protrudes from the rear leg body 54 to form the insertion mating portion 51.

[0054] It should be noted that since the rear leg 50 is installed by means of the plug-in mating part 51, the plug-in mating part 51 will undergo multiple plugging and unplugging during its service life. After a certain number of plugging and unplugging, the plug-in mating part 51 is easily damaged. If the plug-in part 13 is integrally formed with other parts on the rear leg 50, the entire rear leg 50 needs to be replaced when the plug-in mating part 51 is damaged, which results in high maintenance costs.

[0055] In this embodiment, the plug-in component 70 is disposed on the rear leg body 54 and at least partially protrudes from the rear leg body 54 to form the plug-in mating part 51. When the plug-in mating part 51 is damaged, only the plug-in component 70 needs to be replaced to replace the plug-in mating part 51, resulting in low maintenance costs. Furthermore, during the assembly process, the plug-in component 70 can be assembled first and then installed onto the rear leg body 54. This installation method does not restrict the assembly of the second electrical connection part 52 and the snap-fit ​​part 53 due to the space limitations of the rear leg body 54, effectively improving assembly efficiency.

[0056] It should be emphasized that the specific implementation of the rear leg body 54 is not limited. It can be integrally formed or formed by assembling front and rear shells, etc., and no limitation is made here.

[0057] In some embodiments, the plug-in assembly 70 includes a plug-in bracket 71, an electrical connector 72, and a snap-fit ​​connector 73. The plug-in bracket 71 is mounted on the rear leg body 54 and at least partially protrudes from the rear leg body 54. The electrical connector 72 is electrically connected to the battery 60, mounted on the plug-in bracket 71, and at least partially exposed at the portion of the plug-in bracket 71 protruding from the rear leg body 54 to form the second electrical connection portion 52. The snap-fit ​​connector 73 is mounted on the plug-in bracket 71 and includes a snap-fit ​​protrusion 731, which forms the snap-fit ​​portion 53.

[0058] In the corresponding embodiment, during the actual assembly process, the electrical connector 72 and the snap-fit ​​connector 73 can be installed on the plug-in bracket 71 first to form the second electrical connector 52 and the snap-fit ​​connector 53. Then, the plug-in assembly 70 can be installed onto the rear leg body 54. This installation method does not restrict the space of the rear leg body 54 when assembling the second electrical connector 52 and the snap-fit ​​connector 53, effectively improving the assembly efficiency.

[0059] The specific implementation of the electrical connector 72 is not limited. It can be in the form of a wire, a pogo pin, etc., and is not limited here. In some embodiments, the second electrical connector 52 is a contact-type electrical connector.

[0060] It should be noted that when the plug-in part 13 is disassembled and assembled with the plug-in mating part 51, the locking protrusion 731 will deform. If the locking protrusion 731 interferes with other components during the deformation process, it is easy to damage the locking protrusion 731, resulting in poor long-term stability.

[0061] In some embodiments, the latching protrusion 731 and the insertion bracket 71 are spaced apart. In this embodiment, by making the latching protrusion 731 and the insertion bracket 71 spaced apart, space is left for the latching protrusion 731 to deform. This makes the insertion and removal process smoother and improves the long-term stability of the latching part 53.

[0062] Specifically, the spacing arrangement is not limited. It can be that the protrusion 731 is suspended, or that only the part of the connector 73 located between the protrusion 731 and the insertion bracket 71 is spaced apart, etc., and is not limited here.

[0063] In some embodiments, the side of the plug-in bracket 71 is provided with two mounting protrusions 711, and the two mounting protrusions 711 are spaced apart; the two ends of the snap-fit ​​member 73 in the length direction are fixedly installed on the two mounting protrusions 711.

[0064] In this embodiment, by providing two mounting protrusions 711 on the side of the plug-in bracket 71, and then fixing both ends of the snap-fit ​​member 73 along its length to the two mounting protrusions 711, the snap-fit ​​protrusions 731 and the plug-in bracket 71 are spaced apart when the snap-fit ​​member 73 is installed on the two mounting protrusions 711. This makes the insertion and removal process smoother and improves the long-term stability of the snap-fit ​​part 53. Furthermore, it enhances the stability of the snap-fit ​​member 73 during installation.

[0065] Specifically, the installation method between the snap-fit ​​member 73 and the mounting protrusion 711 is not limited, and can be adhesive, snap-fit, etc., which are not limited here. In some embodiments, the mounting protrusion 711 and the snap-fit ​​member 73 are integrally injection molded. Specifically, when the mounting protrusion 711 is injection molded, the snap-fit ​​member 73 is placed into the mounting protrusion 711 and then cooled and molded together.

[0066] The electrical connector 72 is not only connected to the first electrical connection part 14, but also electrically connected to the battery 60. In order to facilitate the electrical connection between the electrical connector 72 and the battery 60, in some embodiments, the plug-in bracket 71 has an installation channel extending through it along its length; the electrical connector 72 passes through the installation channel, one end of the electrical connector 72 outside the installation channel constitutes the second electrical connection part 52, and the other end is electrically connected to the battery 60.

[0067] In the scheme of this embodiment, by providing a through-type installation channel on the plug-in bracket 71, the electrical connector 72 can be inserted through the installation channel, and both ends of the electrical connector 72 can extend out of the installation channel. One end constitutes the second electrical connection part 52 and is electrically connected to the first electrical connection part 14, and the other end is electrically connected to the battery 60, which facilitates the electrical connection between the electrical connection part and the battery 60.

[0068] To prevent water from entering the hind leg body 54, in some embodiments, the plug assembly 70 further includes a waterproof ring 74, which is fitted over the outer side of the portion of the plug bracket 71 that mates with the hind leg body 54.

[0069] Specifically, the specific implementation of the waterproof ring 74 is not limited; it can be a silicone ring, a rubber ring, etc., and is not limited here.

[0070] In the corresponding embodiment, by setting the waterproof ring 74, the waterproof ring 74 can seal the gap between the plug bracket 71 and the rear leg body 54, preventing water from entering the rear leg body 54 through the gap, thereby waterproofing the battery 60 and electrical components inside the rear leg body 54.

[0071] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the plug-in bracket 71 is provided with a limiting groove, and the waterproof ring 74 is installed in the limiting groove. Correspondingly, in the solution of this embodiment, by providing the limiting groove, when the waterproof ring 74 is installed in the limiting groove, the limiting groove can play a certain limiting role on the waterproof ring 74, so as to prevent the waterproof ring 74 from being displaced and affecting the waterproof effect.

[0072] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the waterproof ring 74 is at least partially located on the outside of the hind leg body 54 to waterproof the connection between the hind leg 50 and the front leg 10 when the hind leg 50 is inserted into the front leg 10.

[0073] In this embodiment, by at least partially placing the waterproof ring 74 on the outside of the rear leg body 54, the connection between the rear leg 50 and the front leg 10 can be waterproofed when the rear leg 50 is inserted into the front leg 10. This allows the waterproof ring 74 to waterproof not only the rear leg body 54 but also the connection between the rear leg 50 and the front leg 10, preventing water from affecting the electrical connection between the first electrical connection part 14 and the second electrical connection part 52.

[0074] The specific form of the front leg 10 is not limited. The front leg 10 can be integrally formed or formed by splicing multiple parts. No limitation is made here. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 8 and Figure 9 In some embodiments, the front leg 10 includes a housing 11 and a circuit board assembly 12, wherein the housing 11 has the plug portion 13 formed thereon; the circuit board assembly 12 is mounted on the housing 11 and is at least partially exposed in the plug portion 13 to form the first electrical connection portion 14.

[0075] Specifically, the implementation form of the circuit board assembly 12 is not limited; it can be a PCB board, an FPC board, etc., and is not limited here.

[0076] In the solution of this embodiment, by setting the circuit board assembly 12, when the first electrical connection part 14 and the second electrical connection part 52 are electrically connected, the battery 60 can supply power to the circuit board assembly 12, thereby eliminating the need to set some additional electrical connectors and improving the stability of the electrical connection.

[0077] This utility model also proposes a smart glasses, which includes a temple assembly 100. The specific structure of the temple assembly 100 is as described in the above embodiments. Since this smart glasses adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be described in detail here. The temple assembly 100 includes a front temple 10 and a rear temple 50. The front temple 10 is used to connect to the frame of the smart glasses. The front temple 10 has a plug-in portion 13, and the plug-in portion 13 has a first electrical connection portion 14 and a snap-fit ​​portion 15. The rear temple 50 is equipped with a battery 60. The rear temple 50 has a plug-in portion 51, and the plug-in portion 51 has a second electrical connection portion 52 and a snap-fit ​​portion 53. The second electrical connection portion 52 is electrically connected to the battery 60, so that when the plug-in portion 51 is plugged into the plug-in portion 13, the first electrical connection portion 14 can be electrically connected to the second electrical connection portion 52, and the snap-fit ​​portion 15 and the snap-fit ​​portion 53 are snap-fitted together. In this embodiment, the rear temple 50 can be easily and quickly disassembled to replace the battery 60, thus solving the battery life problem of the smart glasses.
