When the user wears the wearable device in a proper position, the user drives the winding shaft 200 to rotate through the driving mechanism 500, so that the connection belt 300 retracts to a certain length, and the user can wear the wearable device. In addition, when the user needs to use the telescopic module 400, the driving mechanism 500 may be in the second state, and at this time, the driving mechanism 500 connected to the telescopic module 400 may drive the telescopic module 400 to extend out of the apparatus main body 100 or retract into the apparatus main body 100. Compared with the connecting band of the existing wearable device, the length of the connecting band can only be adjusted within a limited range through gear adjustment, the length of the connecting band 300 can be continuously changed in the above mode, so that the difference of different users can be better adapted, and the adjusting effect of the connecting band 300 of the wearable device adopting the above mode is better.

In a further embodiment, the driving mechanism 500 includes a first driving rod 510 and a transmission assembly 520, and during the process that the first driving rod 510 moves along the direction of the axis thereof, the driving mechanism 500 is switched between a first state and a second state; with the drive mechanism 500 in the first state, the first drive rod 510 is connected to the take-up shaft 200 via the transmission assembly 520; with the drive mechanism 500 in the second state, the first drive rod 510 is connected to the telescopic module 400. The first driving rod 510 is driven to move along the axis direction thereof, so that the driving mechanism 500 is in the first state, and then the first driving rod 510 is driven to rotate, so that the winding shaft 200 can be driven to rotate through the transmission assembly 520, and the connecting belt 300 extends out of or retracts a certain distance from the device main body 100 to meet the wearing requirement of a user. In addition, the first driving rod 510 is driven to move along the axis direction thereof, so that the driving mechanism 500 is in the second state, the first driving rod 510 is connected to the telescopic module 400, and the first driving rod 510 can drive the telescopic module 400 to extend out or retract into the apparatus main body 100, so that the telescopic module 400 can meet the working requirement. In this embodiment, the driving mechanism 500 can be switched between the first state and the second state more conveniently by the movement of the first driving lever 510 along the axis direction thereof, and when the first state and the second state are switched by the first driving lever 510, only the pushing and rotating operations are required, so that the operation of this embodiment is simpler.

In an alternative embodiment, the first driving rod 510 has a third end 511 and a fourth end 512, the transmission assembly 520 is at least partially disposed at the third end 511, and the fourth end 512 is connected to the telescopic module 400 when the driving mechanism 500 is in the second state. When the driving mechanism 500 is in the first state, the transmission assembly 520 disposed at the third end 511 drives the winding shaft 200 to rotate, and when the driving mechanism 500 is in the second state, the fourth end 512 of the first driving rod 510 is connected to the telescopic module 400, so that when the first driving rod 510 rotates around its axis, the telescopic module 400 can be driven to extend out of or retract into the apparatus main body 100. By causing the third end 511 and the fourth end 512 of the first drive lever 510 to function as a drive, the first drive lever 510 can be utilized to the maximum extent to reduce the number of components in the device main body 100, and the weight of the wearable device can be reduced.

In another alternative embodiment, the driving mechanism 500 further includes a second driving rod 530, the second driving rod 530 is disposed coaxially with the winding shaft 200, the transmission assembly 520 includes a first gear 521 and a second gear 522, the first gear 521 is disposed on the first driving rod 510, and the second gear 522 is disposed on the second driving rod 530; with the drive mechanism 500 in the first state, the first gear 521 meshes with the second gear 522; with the drive mechanism 500 in the second state, the first gear 521 is separated from the second gear 522. In the state that the first gear 521 is engaged with the second gear 522, when the first driving lever 510 is driven to rotate, the first driving lever 510 drives the first gear 521 to rotate, and then the second gear 522 engaged with the first gear 521 also starts to rotate, and then the second driving lever 530 is driven to rotate by the second gear 522, because the second driving lever 530 is coaxially arranged with the winding shaft 200, the winding shaft 200 rotates along with the second driving lever 530, so that the connecting belt 300 is wound or unwound, and the length of the connecting belt 300 meets the wearing requirement of a user. In addition, in a state where the first gear 521 is separated from the second gear 522, the first driving lever 510 is driven to rotate around its axis, so that the telescopic module 400 can be extended or retracted into the apparatus body 100 to meet the working requirement of the telescopic module 400. In the above embodiment, the first driving rod 510, the second driving rod 530, the first gear 521 and the second gear 522 are matched to achieve the above functions, and at the same time, the wearable device may have higher reliability, longer service life and lower cost.

In a further alternative embodiment, the number of the first gears 521 is at least two, the diameters of the first gears 521 are different from each other, and the same second gear 522 can be meshed with different first gears 521; and/or, the number of the second gears 522 is at least two, the diameters of the second gears 522 are different from each other, and the same first gear 521 can be meshed with different second gears 522. That is, any gear on the first gear 521 may be engaged with any gear on the second gear 522, and thus the connection band 300 may be extended or retracted out of or into the apparatus body 100 at different speeds by engagement of a different gear on the first gear 521 with a different gear on the second gear 522, and thus the user may more precisely adjust the extension or retraction length of the connection band 300.

In the above embodiment, since the diameters of the first gears 521 and the second gears 522 are different from each other, if the first gears 521 and the second gears 522 with different diameters are engaged, the distance between the first driving rod 510 and the second driving rod 530 needs to be controlled to be changed, so that the first gears 521 and the second gears 522 with different diameters can be engaged, and the operation is complicated. Therefore, the number of the first gears 521 and the second gears 522 is at least two, the second driving rod 530 is parallel to the first driving rod 510, the diameter of each first gear 521 is gradually reduced, and the diameter of each second gear 522 is gradually increased in a direction parallel to the second driving rod 530, and the distance between the adjacent first gears 521 is not equal to the distance between the adjacent second gears 522. In one embodiment, in a direction parallel to the second driving rod 530 and toward the telescopic module 400, the diameter of each first gear 521 is gradually reduced, and the diameter of each second gear 522 is gradually increased, and the distance between the adjacent first gears 521 is not equal to the distance between the adjacent second gears 522; in another embodiment, in a direction parallel to the second driving rod 530 and away from the telescopic module 400, the diameter of each first gear 521 is gradually reduced, and the diameter of each second gear 522 is gradually increased, and the distance between the adjacent first gears 521 is not equal to the distance between the adjacent second gears 522. When the gear with a larger diameter of the first gears 521 is engaged with the gear with a smaller diameter of the second gears 522, the length of the connection belt 300 can be rapidly adjusted; when the gear having a smaller diameter of the first gears 521 is engaged with the gear having a larger diameter of the second gears 522, the length of the connection belt 300 can be adjusted more slowly. Therefore, when the user wears the wearable device, the first driving rod 510 is driven to move along the axis direction thereof, so that the corresponding gears are engaged, and then the length of the connection band 300 can be adjusted at different adjustment speeds. In one embodiment, the user can first engage the gear with a larger diameter on the first driving rod 510 with the gear with a smaller diameter on the second driving rod 530, so as to quickly adjust the length of the connection belt 300 roughly, and then engage the gear with a smaller diameter on the first driving rod 510 with the gear with a larger diameter on the second driving rod 530, or engage the gears with a smaller diameter difference, so as to slowly adjust the connection belt 300 finely. The above manner may allow a user to more conveniently adjust the connection band 300.

In one embodiment, the first driving rod 510 has a third end 511, and the driving mechanism 500 further includes a driving knob 540 disposed on the third end 511, wherein the driving knob 540 is located outside the apparatus main body 100. When the connecting band 300 and the telescopic module 400 need to be adjusted, a user can apply an acting force to the driving knob 540 to rotate the driving knob 540, and the rotated driving knob 540 can drive the first driving rod 510 to rotate, so that the length of the connecting band 300 and the state of the telescopic module 400 can be adjusted. It can be seen that the user can adjust the wearable device more conveniently by actuating the knob 540. Furthermore, this embodiment does not need to consume power, and thus can reduce the power consumption of the wearable device.

If the telescopic module 400 and the driving knob 540 are not arranged in a direction parallel to the first driving rod 510, in this way, a transmission part needs to be added to change the transmission direction of the variable force, so that not only the transmission efficiency is low, but also the structure of the driving mechanism 500 is more complicated, so that the telescopic module 400 and the driving knob 540 can be arranged in a direction parallel to the first driving rod 510, thereby not only improving the transmission efficiency of the driving mechanism 500, but also simplifying the structure of the driving mechanism 500.

In an alternative embodiment, the first drive rod 510 has a fourth end 512, the fourth end 512 being provided with a first thread 512 a; the telescopic module 400 is provided with a threaded hole, and the fourth end 512 is matched with the threaded hole. Under the condition that fourth end 512 and screw hole cooperate, through making first actuating lever 510 rotate around self axis, can make flexible module 400 stretch out or retract equipment main body 100 to satisfy the work demand of flexible module 400. In this embodiment, the rotation of the first driving rod 510 can be converted into the movement of the telescopic module 400 by a screw-thread fit manner, which is simple in structure and has no power consumption.

In the above embodiment, the extending distance of the telescopic module 400 depends on the depth of the threaded hole, and is limited by the space of the telescopic module 400 itself, and the depth of the threaded hole is limited, so that the extending distance of the telescopic module 400 cannot be longer. Therefore, the driving mechanism 500 further includes a third driving rod 550, one end of the third driving rod 550 is connected to the telescopic module 400, the third driving rod 550 is provided with a second thread 551, and the first thread 512a is matched with the second thread 551. When the telescopic module 400 needs to be extended or retracted, the first driving rod 510 is driven to rotate, and since the third driving rod 550 is matched with the first thread 512a through the second thread 551, the third driving rod 550 can be driven to move along the axis direction of the third driving rod 510 while rotating, so that the telescopic module 400 can be driven to extend or retract into the apparatus main body 100. In this manner, the extending length of the telescopic module 400 depends on the length of the third driving rod 550, and if the telescopic module 400 is desired to be extended longer, the length of the third driving rod 550 is only required to be increased, so that the length of the telescopic module 400 can be increased by providing the third driving rod 550.

The connecting band of current wearable equipment is two usually, need can wear after two-layer with the connecting band stack when the user dresses to make wearable equipment's comfort level and portability all receive the influence. In the present application, the driving mechanism 500 is used to release or contract one end of the connection band 300 of the wearable device, thereby enabling the wearable device to be worn. Therefore, the connecting band 300 can be an integrated structure, and the integrated structure avoids the situation that the connecting band 300 needs to be overlapped when the wearable device is worn, so that the comfort level and the portability of the user when the wearable device is worn can be improved.

While the present embodiments have been described with reference to the accompanying drawings, it is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the precise embodiments described above, which are meant to be illustrative and not restrictive, and that various changes may be made therein by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.
