The watch screen is displayed through the display window 101, and the control panel 2 is exposed through the panel opening 102, resulting in a clean and aesthetically pleasing overall design.

[0024] To ensure the watch's stability within the storage cavity and prevent it from accidentally falling out of the display window 101, the display window 101 is configured to be slightly smaller in length and / or width than the corresponding size of the adapted touchscreen electronic watch 8. Please refer to... Figures 1 to 3 Preferably, in this embodiment, the length and width of the display window 101 are both smaller than the length and width of the touchscreen electronic watch 8. This ensures that after the watch is placed inside, the edges of its case can be stably supported by the surrounding structure of the display window 101, improving the safety and reliability of the device.

[0025] Furthermore, for expanding device functionality, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 3 and Figure 4 In some possible embodiments, the housing 1 also integrates a wireless charging module 13 and a Bluetooth speaker module 14. The wireless charging module 13 establishes a wireless connection with the touchscreen electronic watch 8 via Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, or 5G, and can automatically charge the watch after it is placed inside, making the device a convenient charging dock. The Bluetooth speaker module 14 allows the device to connect to an external audio source to play audio.

[0026] Furthermore, in some possible embodiments, a magnetic attraction structure or a sliding guide structure can be provided inside the lower cover 11. When a magnetic attraction structure is used, a magnetic element can be provided inside the lower cover 11 at the position corresponding to where the watch is placed, and a component that can be attracted to the watch is also provided on the corresponding part of the watch. When the watch is placed into the storage cavity, it can be quickly and stably positioned by magnetic attraction, preventing the watch from shaking inside the box. The sliding guide structure is a specific groove provided inside the lower cover 11. The watch slides into the storage cavity along the groove. The size and shape of the groove are adapted to the watch, which can guide the watch to be placed accurately.

[0027] In some possible embodiments, the control panel 2 is a capacitive touch panel or a physical button panel. A capacitive touch panel receives commands by sensing changes in capacitance caused by human touch; the user can control the watch's functions, such as switching interfaces or adjusting volume, simply by lightly touching the corresponding area on the panel. A physical button panel receives commands by pressing physical buttons, which provide clear tactile feedback, allowing for accurate operation without looking at the panel.

[0028] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5In some preferred embodiments, the control panel 2 employs a physical button panel, which includes a rotatable and depressable rotating operation disk 21 and a touch keyboard 22 surrounding its outer edge. The rotating operation disk 21 is used for selection and confirmation operations, while the touch keyboard 22 is used to execute customized shortcut functions or up, down, left, and right directional operations, thus providing users with a more convenient and diverse interaction method besides directly touching the watch screen.

[0029] To further enhance the feel and precision of operation, in some possible embodiments, the device features a rotatable main knob 4 on one side of the housing 1, connected to the internal rotating control panel 21 via a transmission mechanism 5. The transmission mechanism 5 can employ belt drive to transmit the rotation of the main knob 4 to the rotating control panel 21. To optimize the transmission effect, two guide wheels 7 located inside the belt are provided within the housing 1 to tension and guide the belt. Simultaneously, a tactile feedback mechanism 6 is integrated onto the rotating control panel 21. This mechanism consists of a gear disk 61 coaxially fitted with the rotating control panel 21 and an elastic ball bearing structure 62 that presses against the gear disk 61. The teeth of the gear disk 61 are arc-shaped, and the elastic ball bearing structure 62 consists of a mounting box and balls partially protruding from one side of the housing 1. The balls are connected to the mounting box via springs. When the user rotates the main knob 4, the gear disk 61 rotates accordingly, and the elastic ball moves between the teeth to produce a clear "click" feedback, simulating the operating feel of the high-end mechanical knob 4, making the operation more precise and textured.

[0030] Please see Figure 1 Preferably, in this embodiment, the pressing structure 3 is a pressing button. The pressing surface of this button is designed to match the shape of the watch button on the touch-sensitive electronic watch 8 to increase the contact area and improve the accuracy and stability of the pressing. A rigid push rod is connected to the bottom of the pressing button, and the end of the push rod is covered with an elastic buffer layer to provide appropriate cushioning during pressing and avoid damage to the watch button. When the user needs to press the watch button in the storage cavity, they only need to gently press the pressing button to perform the corresponding function operation.

[0031] Furthermore, in some possible embodiments, the lower cover 11 may also be equipped with charging and data transmission interfaces such as a Type-C interface, POGO Pin contacts, or a USB interface.

The display area of ​​the watch is exposed through the display window 101, which makes it easy for the user to view the time or notification information; the control panel 2 is exposed through the panel opening 102, providing an interactive interface for subsequent operations.

[0033] When the user needs to perform the button function, they only need to press the button on the box 1 corresponding to the button position. The user can also drive the transmission mechanism 5 by rotating the main knob 4, which drives the internal rotating operation disk 21 to rotate synchronously, so as to switch interfaces or select functions; during the rotation, the tactile feedback mechanism 6 produces a "click" sound through the cooperation of the gear disk 61 and the elastic ball, providing a precise control experience similar to the mechanical knob 4.

[0034] If the watch's battery is low, place it in the storage compartment and activate the wireless charging module 13 to begin charging. When you need to play audio, you can use the Bluetooth speaker module 14 to emit sound.

[0035] This utility model provides an integrated interactive device for a touch-screen electronic watch 8 and a control panel 2.
