In this embodiment, it can ensure that a plurality of the groove links can be connected together.
Further, the first shaft hole and the second shaft hole are respectively installed with a unidirectional spring shaft, and two opposite ends of the two unidirectional spring shafts are configured to be respectively inserted into the first through hole and the second through hole of another groove link, to ensure that a plurality of the groove links can be connected together to form a groove bracelet. The unidirectional spring shaft is designed to minimize the length of the spring shaft to ensure that the width of the accommodating groove in the lateral direction is sufficient.
Further, the link base further comprises a protruding wing, which is protruding upward and backward from the middle of the link base and is wider than the accommodating groove in the lateral direction; and the front end of the protruding wing is recessed rearward to form an accommodating portion capable of accommodating a protruding backward portion of the protruding wing of another groove link. In this embodiment, the protruding wing can strengthen the strength of the middle of the groove link and cover the gap occurring between two adjacent groove links when the groove bracelet is curled.
Further, the bracelet assembly further comprises an opening and closing base, which comprises a main body provided with an accommodating chamber configured to accommodate a soft tube or cable of a spare length, and with two notches which is located at the two ends of the accommodating chamber and configured to be docked with the accommodating groove of the groove base; wherein the accommodating chamber, the notch and the accommodating groove are successively connected to form a complete channel so that one end of the soft tube or cable is accommodated and connected at the accommodating chamber, and the other end passes through the notch and then penetrates into the accommodating groove. In this embodiment, it can ensure that the length of the soft tube or cable and the groove bracelet can be adjusted in this bracelet assembly at the same time.
Further, the opening and closing base further comprises a connection cover and a frame; one end of the connection cover is pivotally connected to one end of the main body, and the other end is pivotally connected to one end of the frame; the other end of the frame is pivotally connected to the bracelet assembly; and the connection cover can be configured to close over the accommodating chamber, and the frame can be configured to frame the periphery of the connection cover and the main body.

Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a bracelet assembly corresponding to multi-attribute physical connections, which can combine multiple types of wristbands to make it possible to develop new types of wrist-wear equipments.
As shown in
The structure of the assembly is simple but integrates a number of important concepts and new elements, comprising: designing a new wrist-wear equipment based on the bracelet assembly, with random structure and appearance, high reliability and durability, easy to assemble and disassemble, easy to tidy and maintain, easy to produce and low cost, and strong follow-up of the design. The production of groove links can make full use of 3D printing technology to achieve the best results, and can be matched with the current wrist-wear equipment to design new wrist-wear equipments, and can enhance the functions and capabilities of wrist-wear equipments currently on the market.
Based on the above points, the structure of the groove link and the opening and closing base must be as simple as possible to obtain the best balance and effect. The design of the groove link and the opening and closing base is corresponding to a multi-unit wrist-wear equipment that uses soft tubes or cables to connect each unit, so it can transmit one or more of currents, electric waves, liquids and gases, etc. between these units. In addition, the common base can be customized to fit a specific unit. With the common base or other matching assemblys or units, more changes can be created.
The grooved bracelet is an open structure, so the soft tube or cable in the accommodating groove is in a natural state. There are notches on both sides of the opening and closing base for the soft tube or cable to pass through, so the accommodating chamber of the opening and closing base is not limited to adjusting the length of the soft tube or cable, and it also has the function of mounting other components. Soft tubes or cables can be selectively configured, so multiple different devices can be mounted on the bracelet assembly at the same time.
The present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments described above, and various changes made by those skilled in the art based on the above concepts without creative labor fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
