At least one of the connection casing 113, the first casing 111, and the second casing 115 is made of non-metallic materials, which is different from the prior art that all of them are made of metal materials. During use, it is found that when the casing 11 is made of metal materials, although it is easy to manufacture the casing 11, the metal materials may cause greater interference to the transmission and reception of signals, and may even form a shield, thereby resulting in certain signal errors or signal delays; the use of non-metal materials is equivalent to provide a signal transmission channel, which can improve the accuracy of human-computer interaction and signal transmission of the smart wearable device 10, thereby improving the performance of the smart wearable device 10.

In one embodiment, the first casing 111 and the second casing 115 are made of metal materials, and the connection casing 113 is made of non-metallic materials. The non-metallic materials include but are not limited to resin, rubber, plastic, glass, ceramics, or nanomaterials.

It should be noted that, the connection casing 113 is made of non-metallic materials, and the first casing 111 and the second casing 115 are made of metal materials, which meets the structural strength while reducing the cost.

That is, when the connection members 1131 are arranged at intervals, the cross section of the connection casing 113 is in a convex shape at intervals; when the connection member 1131 is designed to surround a circle, the connection casing 113 and the cross-section are all in the convex shape.

Referring to FIGS. 7 and 8, FIG. 7 provides a schematic structural view of an embodiment of a circuit assembly mentioned in FIG. 2; FIG. 8 provides a schematic structural view of an embodiment of the connection casing in FIG. 2. The circuit assembly 13 includes a circuit board 131, a power module 133, a signal module 135, and a processor 137, the circuit board 131 is a bendable circuit board 131; the power module 133 is electrically coupled to the circuit board 131; the signal module 135 is arranged on the circuit board 131, and is electrically coupled to the power module 133; the processor 137 is arranged on the circuit board 131, and is electrically coupled to the signal module 135.

As illustrated in FIGS. 7 and 8 at the same time, the bendable circuit board 131 includes a number of rigid circuit boards 1311 and a number of flexible connection members 1313. A quantity of the rigid circuit boards 1311 is greater than or equal to 3; each flexible connection member 1313 is arranged between the number of rigid circuit boards 1311 and used to connect the number of rigid circuit boards 1311.

The circuit board 131 is designed to be bendable in order to meet the practical problem of curvature in the smart wearable device 10, so that the circuit board 131 should be designed to be bendable. In this way, the circuit board 131 can be accommodated into the annular cavity 112 in a relatively suitable manner.

Further, the bendable circuit board 131 here does not have to include rigid and flexible circuit boards, and may also be a flexible circuit board.

Further, the signal module 135 includes a number of light emitting units 1351 and a number of sensing units 1353, the light emitting units 1351 and the sensing units 1353 are arranged at intervals on the circuit board 131.

It should be noted that the light emitting unit 1351 may be a light emitting electronic component such as a light emitting diode (LED).

It should be noted that the sensing unit 1353 may be a photoelectric sensor such as a photodiode (PD).

During the human-computer interaction process, the light emitting unit 1351 emits light to illuminate a surface of the human arm or finger, the sensing unit 1353 receives signals formed by the light reflected by the human arm or finger, and the processor 137 processes the signals formed by the reflected light.

It should be noted that the signal module 135 can also process physiological signals such as temperature signals, pulse signals, exercise signals, and blood oxygen content.

Further, one surface of the filling member 15 is contacted with the human arm or finger, and the other surface is matched with the casing 11, and the human arm or finger and the casing fix the circuit assembly 13.

A surface of the filling member 15 defines a convex bump 151, and the convex bump 151 corresponds to a position of the sensing unit 1353.

When the sensing unit 1353 receives the signals formed by the light reflected by the human arm or finger, the design of the convex bump 151 draws on a principle of a convex lens to focus more light, so that the sensing unit 1353 can receive light more effectively.

It should be noted that when there are a number of sensing units 1353, the convex bump 151 and the sensing unit 1353 are arranged correspondingly, and there are also a number of convex bumps 151.

It should be noted that since the filling member 15 arranged is between the human body and the circuit assembly 13, the interaction between the signal module 135 on the circuit assembly 13 and the human body is realized through the above-mentioned optical signals. Therefore, there is a transparent or translucent area in at least part of the filling member 15, which facilitates the optical signal to pass through the filling member 15, thereby realizing the interaction between the human body and the circuit assembly 13.

It should be noted that, at least at the convex bump 151, the filling member 14 is transparent or translucent, so that the optical signals transmit between the human body and the circuit assembly 13 through the convex bump 151.

It should be noted that the annular cavity 112 has a certain depth, which can accommodate the electronic components in the circuit assembly 13, the electronic components also have a certain height, but according to the actual manufacture experiences, the height of the electronic components is greater than the depth of the annular cavity 112. At this time, a filling member 15 is arranged to cover and fill the entire circuit assembly 13.

Further, since the height of the electronic components fluctuates and there are many gaps inside the annular cavity 112, the present disclosure adopts the design of the filling member 15, and one side the filling member 15 pours the electronic component itself and the gaps between the electronic components and the annular cavity 112, thereby achieving relative fixation between the electronic components and the annular cavity 112. The other side of the filling member 15 is relatively smooth and is contacted with the human body.

Further, the filling member 15 may be made of resin, plastic, silicone, rubber or other materials.

Through the implementation of the above technical solution, a connection casing 113 is arranged between the first casing 111 and the second casing 115, the connection casing 113 is made of non-metallic materials, such design reduces the overall weight and material cost of the smart wearable device 10, and improves the overall comfort of the smart wearable device 10. At the same time, in the process of signal transmission and human-computer interaction, the technical means of the convex bump 151 is introduced, so that the present disclosure further improves the accuracy of human-computer interaction and signal transmission of the smart wearable device 10, and improves the performance of the smart wearable device 10.

The above embodiments, which are described in detail, are merely some implementations of the present disclosure, but they should not be construed to limit the scope of the present disclosure. It should be pointed out that, various modifications and improvements can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the concept of the present disclosure.
