Ring-Shaped Wristband Display for Direct Viewing
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Intelligent wristband electronic devices face increased thickness due to exposed display screens or indicator lights, and users must turn over their wrist to view them, compromising convenience.
Innovation Solution
An electronic device with a non-closed ring-shaped body featuring a first and second display assembly, where the first display assembly is exposed through one end and the second display assembly is positioned on a lateral side of the second end, allowing for convenient viewing without the need to turn the wrist, utilizing a flexible material that can deform to fit the user's wrist.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Illumination intensity
If a display screen or indicator light is exposed through the main body of the intelligent wristband electronic device, then the display output is visible, but the thickness of the device increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent transitions from a single flat display surface to a three-dimensional curved display surface that wraps around the wrist. The display screen is arranged to extend along the circumferential direction of the wrist, utilizing the third dimension (curvature) to provide display visibility without increasing linear thickness at any single point.
Solution Approach 2:
The display screen is divided into multiple display regions arranged at different positions around the wristband body. This segmentation allows the display output to be distributed across multiple areas, maintaining visibility while accommodating the curved surface geometry without requiring excessive thickness.
2Device complexity
If the display screen is positioned on the main body of the wristband, then the device structure is simple, but the user must turn over the wrist to view the display, reducing convenience
Solution Approach 1:
The display screen is arranged to wrap around the curved surface of the wristband, extending in the circumferential direction. This dimensional arrangement allows the display to be positioned at multiple angles around the wrist, enabling users to view the display from different wrist positions without needing to flip or rotate the entire device.
Solution Approach 2:
Different regions of the display screen are positioned at different locations on the wristband body, with each region optimized for specific viewing scenarios. This local distribution of display functionality allows users to access display information from various wrist orientations, improving viewing convenience while maintaining overall structural simplicity.

AI summary
An embodiment provides an electronic device, and the electronic device includes: a body having a first end and forming a non-closed ring shape; a first display assembly arranged in the body and having a first display output face being exposed through the first end of the body. The body may further include a second end, wherein the first end and the second end of the body meet a first predetermined position relation in which the first end faces the second end, or in which the first end crosses the second end, or in which the first end is substantially perpendicular to the second end.
