Smart gloves are a type of smart wearable devices, which intelligently provide more functions than hand protection and hand protection, such as but not limited to gesture recognition. A smart glove in the prior art is provided with: an integral flexible printed circuit board (FPCB) integrated with sensors; a thumb button; and a control box. The FPCB includes finger-shaped parts respectively corresponding to and following the thumb, index finger, middle finger, ring finger and little finger. Sensors are distributed at these finger-shaped parts and are controlled by the thumb button to start and stop collecting data. The thumb button and the control box are also directly bonded to the FPCB, so that the gesture data detected by the sensor and the control commands of the thumb button can be sent to the control box through the printed circuit on the FPCB. This kind of smart glove with integrated FPCB is not comfortable to wear; due to the differences among people, different people have different sizes of hands, and wearing gloves of the same specification will cause discomfort. lead to rising costs. In addition, during the assembly or operation of the integrated FPCB smart glove, the hand joints of the FPCB are easily broken and damaged.

detailed description

The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by persons of ordinary skill in the art without making creative efforts belong to the protection scope of the present invention.

It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being “fixed on” or “disposed on” another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may be an intervening element at the same time. When an element is referred to as being "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or intervening elements may also be present.

It should also be noted that the orientation terms such as left, right, up, and down in this embodiment are only relative concepts or refer to the normal use state of the product, and should not be regarded as limiting.

Embodiment 1, as shown in Figures 1-4, a smart glove of this embodiment includes a glove body 11, a flexible circuit board, and a control module 13 connected to the flexible circuit board. The flexible circuit board has a thumb, The branch 12 corresponding to at least one finger in the index finger, middle finger, ring finger and little finger, at least one sensor is arranged on the branch 12, the outer surface of the flexible circuit board and the control module 13 is formed with a protective layer, the flexible circuit board and the control module 13 It is located in the protective layer and forms an integral structure 14. On the back of the hand of the glove body 11, a limiting structure 15 corresponding to the branches is fixed. The limiting structure 15 has an accommodating cavity 15a, and the top wall 15b of the accommodating cavity 15a is provided with a The longitudinal notch 15c is provided along the length direction of the accommodating cavity 15a, through which the branch 12 is inserted into the accommodating cavity 15a or removed from the accommodating cavity 15a. In the smart glove with this structure, by setting a limit structure and opening a long gap along the length direction of the storage cavity, the branch of the flexible circuit board can be easily inserted into the storage cavity through the gap or removed from the storage cavity, realizing For the fixing and dismounting of the integrated structure 14 formed by the flexible circuit board and the control module and the glove body, the user first selects a suitable glove body when using it, and then fixes the integrated structure including the flexible circuit board and the control module on the glove body That is enough to ensure the comfort of the user, or when the circuit part is damaged, you only need to take out the above-mentioned integrated structure 14, and the glove body can also be used in conjunction with other integrated structures to make rational use of resources. The limit structure can ensure the connection strength between the smart module body and the glove body at the same time, so that the smart module can deform correspondingly with the movement of the finger, meeting the detection requirements of the smart glove.

In order to improve the strength of the integrated structure 14 and prevent the flexible circuit board and the control module 13 from being separated during use, the protective layer is preferably an integrally formed structure. It is well protected and flexible enough to move flexibly with the fingers. It is preferable that the outer surface of the flexible circuit board and the control module be injected with silicone to form a silicone protective layer. Of course, it is not limited to the silicone injection molding process, and can also be formed by the viscose process, as long as the flexible circuit board and the control module can be connected into an integral structure, and the flexible circuit board and the control module can be protected, while the flexibility of the protective layer Just meet the needs of use.

In this embodiment, it is preferable that the limiting structure 15 is arranged along the length direction of the branch. On the one hand, it is convenient to disassemble and assemble along the length direction of the branch. On the other hand, the contact area between the limiting structure 15 and the branch can be increased, so that To the limit and fixation of the branch.

One or more transverse notches 15d intersecting with the longitudinal notch 15c are formed on the top wall of the accommodating cavity 15a. Since the longitudinal notch 15c arranged along the length direction of the accommodating cavity 15a is relatively long, when the user makes a fist, the longitudinal notch 15c The notch 15c is subjected to tension towards both sides, causing the longitudinal notch 15c to crack. By setting the transverse notch 15d, the tension on both sides of the longitudinal notch 15c can be relieved.

A layer of velcro (not shown in the figure due to the angle) is fixed on the lower surface of the protective layer at the position below the control module 13, and the side of the velcro facing away from the protective layer has barbs, as shown in Figure 2. The limiting structure 15 has fluff 16 matched with the barb. When the branch 12 is inserted into the accommodating cavity 15a, the control module part is detachably fixed by the barb of the Velcro 16 and the limiting structure 15 .

The side of the Velcro facing the protective layer has an adhesive layer, and the Velcro is bonded and fixed to the lower surface of the protective layer through the adhesive layer.

The limiting structure 15 can be fixed to the glove body 11 by glue or sewing.

Of course, the above descriptions are not intended to limit the present invention, and the present invention is not limited to the above examples. Changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the present invention shall also belong to protection scope of the present invention.
