Adjustable Bending Force Assembly
20170071320 · 2017-03-16 ·

An adjustable bending force assembly is described for use with components that are securable to objects via applied bending force. In implementations, the adjustable bending force assembly is formed as part of a band that exerts bending force upon objects inserted within the band (e.g., between the ends of the band). The adjustable bending force assembly includes one or more stiffener elements that are adjustably positionable at multiple different positions along a length of the band to vary the amount of bending force. In one approach, the stiffener elements are configured as plates that slide into different positions to adjust the bending force. The adjustable bending force assembly may be included as an integrated component of a wearable device, such as a watch or headband. Alternatively, a band can be configured as a separate component to which a device can readily be attached and detached through manual force.

SUBSTANTIALLY ANNULAR-SHAPED ACCESSORY
20170071296 · 2017-03-16 ·

A substantially annular-shaped accessory includes multiple arc-shaped structural elements that form a C-shaped annulus (major arc-shaped annulus) and a core. The core has a structure formed into a C-shaped annular-shaped accessory having an end gap of expandable/contractible width. One end of the core having a C-shaped member and an elastic body are fasten to a locking projection inside the arc-shaped structural element constituting one end section. Another end of the core is fasten to the locking projection inside the arc-shaped structural element constituting another end section.

Band employing bistable magnetic actuator

A band includes at least three members pivotably connected to one another so as to be pivotable between open and closed positions. A first member includes first and second permanent magnets disposed at opposite ends thereof, a second member includes a third permanent magnet and a third member includes a fourth permanent magnet. The first and second members are configured such that when they are pivoted with respect to each other past a threshold position toward the closed position, they are biased toward the closed position by forces created by the first and third magnets and when they are pivoted with respect to each other past the threshold position toward the open position, they are biased toward the open position by forces created by the first and third magnets. The first and third members are similarly biased by forces created by the second and fourth magnets.

Wristband and wrist wearable device

Disclosed are a wristband and a wrist wearable device. The wristband includes a wristband body portion, a connecting portion, and a memory metal portion. One end of the wristband body portion is connected to the connecting portion, the connecting portion is connected to one end of a device body of a wrist wearable device, and another end of the wristband body portion is a free end. The memory metal portion is provided on the wristband body portion and has an arc-shaped memory state in a natural state, so that the wristband body portion is naturally maintained in an arc shape, and the wristband is naturally maintained in a wearing state.
