When the ratchet wheel 2 rotates in the first direction X and drives the transmission wheel 6 to rotate in the first direction X, thus driving the first fixing belt B and the second fixing belt C to move away from each other synchronously, the two fixing belts are in a loose state, and the reset piece 5 is deformed. When the user rotates the knob 4 in the second direction Y to remove external force, the reset piece 5 is restored to the original state and enables the ratchet wheel 2 to rotate and reset in the second direction Y, thereby driving the transmission wheel 6 to rotate in the second direction Y, and further driving the first fixing belt B and the second fixing belt C to move synchronously towards each other, so that the two fixing belts are in a tightened state. Therefore, the user may perform wearing using one knob 4 to synchronously adjust the two fixing belts, which is easy to wear, so that the user experience is improved.
In one implementation, the first direction X is counterclockwise and the second direction Y is clockwise. As an optional implementation, the first direction X is clockwise and the second direction Y is counterclockwise. It is easy to understand that in order to enable the first fixing belt B and the second fixing belt C to move towards or away from each other synchronously, the first fixing belt B and the second fixing belt C need to be in driving connection with the transmission wheel 6 in opposite directions.
In one implementation, the fixing belt adjusting mechanism A further includes a fastening component 7. Specifically, the fastening component 7 is arranged on the fixing base 1 and connected with the knob 4. When the user rotates the knob 4 in the first direction X and releases the knob 4, the fastening component 7 may fasten the knob 4. That is, the fastening component 7 may keep the ratchet wheel 2 and the transmission wheel 6 stationary after rotating in the first direction X, thus keeping the fixing belt in a loose state, which brings convenience for the user to wear. It is easy to understand that fastening force generated by the fastening component 7 is greater than elastic force generated by the deformation of the reset piece 5, so that the ratchet wheel 2 and the transmission wheel 6 may be prevented from rotating in the second direction Y immediately after the external force is removed by the user, thereby avoiding the fixing belt from being tightened to affect the wearing experience of the user.
In one implementation, the fastening component 7 includes a fixing bolt 71 and a fastening spring 72. Specifically, the fixing bolt 71 is fixedly arranged on the fixing base 1, and a top end of the fixing bolt 71 is connected with the knob 4 in a rotatable manner. Therefore, friction between the fixing bolt 71 and the knob 4 may tighten the knob 4. Further,
Specifically, the fixing bolt 71 includes a main body part 712 and a connecting part 713 extending from the top end of the main body part 712 towards the knob 4. Further, the fastening spring 72 is arranged on the main body part 712 in a sleeving manner, and the flange 711 is located at the bottom end of the main body part 712. Furthermore, the fixing bolt 71 is connected with the knob 4 in a rotatable manner through the connecting part 713.
It should be noted that as an optional implementation, the fixing bolt 71 is connected with the knob 4 in a threaded manner through the connecting part 713. As shown in
In one implementation, the pawl 31 is arranged on the driving member 3 through an extension part 311. Herein, the extension part 311 is made of an elastic material. Further, the knob 4 is provided with a lifting part 42. When the user rotates the knob 4 in the second direction Y, the lifting part 42 is rotated to the pawl 31, so that the extension part 311 may be deformed by further rotation, and the pawl 31 may be lifted away from the ratchet wheel 2. Therefore, the reset piece 5 may be restored to the original state in the absence of the external force, so that the ratchet wheel 2 rotates in the second direction Y, and the first fixing belt B and the second fixing belt C are driven by the transmission wheel 6 to move synchronously towards each other, so that the fixing belt enters the tightened state, thus bringing convenience for the user to wear. In the present implementation, the lifting part 42 and the pushing part 41 are integrally formed into an L-shaped structure, so as to simplify the structure of the knob 4.
In one implementation, a rigid toothed surface is formed on the outer edge of the ratchet wheel 2, and the pawl 31 is correspondingly formed into a toothed hook structure, so that the ratchet wheel 2 may be hooked and driven to rotate. Further, the knob 4 is provided with a supporting part 43, and the supporting part 43 keeps a certain distance from the lifting part 42. When the user rotates the knob 4 in the first direction X, the lifting part 42 is separated from the extension part 311. When the pushing part 41 rotates to contact the stressed part 32, the supporting part 43 pushes the pawl 31 into a toothed groove of the ratchet wheel 2, and the supporting part 43 continuously supports the pawl 31 during the rotation of the knob 4, so as to prevent the pawl 31 from falling off to disable the mechanism. It should be noted that the number of the supporting parts 43 is equal to the number of the pawls 31. It should be further noted that the ratchet wheel 2 in the present implementation is a toothed ratchet wheel, which may ensure the reliability of transmission. As an optional implementation, the ratchet wheel 2 may be a friction ratchet wheel, and the motion is transmitted by the friction between the ratchet wheel 2 and the pawl 31.
In one implementation, the knob 4 is arranged to be circular and the edge bulges to form a sidewall. Correspondingly, an annular groove 12 matched with the sidewall of the knob 4 is formed in the fixing base 1, so that the knob 4 may be embedded in the annular groove 12. Further, the fixing base 1 is provided with a leak structure 13, so that the fixing base 1 may partially expose the transmission wheel 6 to be in driving connection with the first fixing belt B and the second fixing belt C on the basis of ensuring that the transmission wheel 6 does not fall off.
The fixing belt adjusting mechanism A provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure rotates the knob 4 in the first direction X, so that the driving member 3 may follow the rotation, the ratchet wheel 2 may be driven to rotate through the pawl 31, and then the first fixing belt B and the second fixing belt C may move synchronously away from each other through the rotation of the transmission wheel 6. Meanwhile, the reset piece 5 is elastically deformed under the rotation of the ratchet wheel 2. Further, the knob 4 is rotated in the second direction Y, so that the reset piece 5 may be restored to the original state, the ratchet wheel 2 is driven to rotate in the second direction Y, and then the first fixing belt B and the second fixing belt C may move synchronously towards each other through the rotation of the transmission wheel 6. Therefore, the user only needs to rotate the knob 4 in different directions to achieve the effect of synchronously adjusting the first fixing belt B and the second fixing belt C. That is, the user only needs to rotate the knob 4 to loosen or tighten the two fixing belts.
The wearable device provided by the embodiment of the present disclosure may achieve the effect of synchronously adjusting the first fixing belt B and the second fixing belt C through the fixing belt adjusting mechanism A described above. In one implementation, the transmission wheel 6 is arranged in a gear structure, and the first fixing belt B and the second fixing belt C are correspondingly provided with racks. The racks are meshed with the transmission wheel 6 in different directions, so that the first fixing belt B and the second fixing belt C may move synchronously towards or away from each other when the transmission wheel 6 rotates. As an optional implementation, the first fixing belt B and the second fixing belt C may be in driving connection with the transmission wheel 6 in another way (for example, chain drive).
Embodiments of the present disclosure provide a fixing belt adjusting mechanism and a wearable device. The fixing belt adjusting mechanism includes a fixing base, a ratchet wheel, a driving member, a knob, a reset piece and a transmission wheel. The ratchet wheel, the driving member and the knob are arranged on the fixing base in a rotatable manner, and the driving member may be rotated by the knob, so that a pawl drives the ratchet wheel to rotate in a first direction. Meanwhile, both ends of the reset piece are respectively connected with the fixing base and the ratchet wheel, so that the ratchet wheel may be driven to rotate and reset in a second direction. In addition, the transmission wheel coaxially and fixedly connected with the ratchet wheel may drive a first fixing belt and a second fixing belt to move towards or away from each other through rotation. Therefore, the fixing belt adjusting mechanism may achieve the effect of synchronously adjusting two fixing belts using a simple structure, which facilitates improving the user experience.
The above description is only the preferred embodiment of the present disclosure and is not intended to limit the present disclosure, and various modifications and changes may be made in the present disclosure for those skilled in the art. Any modification, equivalent replacement, or improvement made within the spirit and principle of the present disclosure should be inclusive in the protection scope of the present disclosure.
