WEARABLE DEVICE
20200281331 · 2020-09-10 ·

A wrist-worn device having the form of a continuous loop. The device comprises a plurality of elongate links, each link comprising at least one magnet, the links being connected to form a chain with neighbouring links being pivotable with respect to one another about a pivot axis that is substantially radial with respect to said loop. The magnets of neighbouring links have a respective positioning and polarity to provide an attractive force between the pair of neighbouring links when the pair of neighbouring links are in a side-by-side arrangement, whereby the chain of links has a first configuration in which the links are retained by the attractive force in the side-by-side arrangement, and a second configuration of greater length than the first configuration.

Strap arrangement comprising a first strap portion comprising a plurality of strap engaging structures, each strap engaging structure defines a size of an opening of the strap arrangement; a flexible second strap portion comprising at least one locking piece, the locking piece comprising at least one locking piece engaging structure for being aligned with at least one of the strap engaging structures; and at least one magnet adapted to force the locking piece engaging structure against at least one of the strap engaging structures by a magnetic force.

Band latch mechanism

A band latch mechanism that is configured to connect a wristband to a fitness tracker is provided. The band latch mechanism may be configured to be inserted into a cavity of a housing of the fitness tracker and configured so that any metallic body of the band latch mechanism does not contact metallic surfaces of the cavity in order to prevent an electrical ground from being positioned within a keep-out zone of an antenna of the fitness tracker.
