Abstract

A wearable device includes a casing member, a lifting assembly, an elastic element, and a pressing member. The casing member has a supporting portion. The lifting assembly is housed in the casing member and is liftable above the casing member. The elastic element is connected to the casing member and the lifting assembly. The pressing member faces toward the supporting portion. The pressing member is movably connected to the lifting assembly and is configured to move along with the lifting assembly, whereby the temple is capable of being clamped between the pressing member and the supporting portion.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A wearable device, attachable to a temple of a pair of glasses, comprising:
a casing member having a supporting portion and at least one lug disposed therein, the lug having a bore;
a lifting assembly housed in the casing member and being liftable above the casing member, wherein the lifting assembly comprises a plate, at least one pillar and at least one locking part, wherein the plate is disposed in the casing member, the pillar is affixed to the plate and inserted in the bore, the locking part is fastened to an end of the pillar opposite to the plate;
an elastic component connecting the casing member and the lifting assembly, wherein the elastic component is a spring assembled on the pillar and abuts with the bore and the locking part; and
a pressing member facing toward the supporting portion, wherein the pressing member is movably connected to the lifting assembly and is configured to move along with the lifting assembly, whereby the temple is capable of being clamped between the pressing member and the supporting portion.

2. The wearable device of claim 1 , wherein the lifting assembly comprises a pivot connected to a side of the lifting assembly, and the pressing member is rotatably connected to the lifting assembly via the pivot,
wherein an axial direction of the pivot is orthogonal to a lifting direction of the lifting assembly.

3. The wearable device of claim 2 , further comprising a torsional spring coiling around the pivot, wherein the pressing member comprises a first end and a second end opposite thereto, the lifting assembly rotatably connecting the first end of the pressing member via the pivot, the torsional spring connecting the lifting assembly and the first end of the pressing member, wherein the axial direction of the pivot is orthogonal to a longitudinal direction of the pressing member.

4. The wearable device of claim 2 , wherein the pressing member is slidably connected to the lifting assembly, such that the pressing member is laterally slidable relative to the lifting assembly.

5. The wearable device of claim 4 , wherein the pressing member is slidably connected to the pivot of the lifting assembly, such that the pressing member is laterally slidable along the axial direction of the pivot.

6. The wearable device of claim 5 , wherein the pressing member has a sleeve coupling with a chute, and the pivot is slidably located in the chute.

7. The wearable device of claim 6 , further comprising a nut disposed between the pressing member and the lifting assembly, wherein the pivot is a bolt and the nut is assembled on the bolt, the nut is for pushing the pressing member along the bolt.

8. The wearable device of claim 2 , further comprising:
a cover affixed to a side of the casing member;
a bracket connected to the cover, wherein the pressing member is disposed between the bracket and the supporting portion; and
an adjustable stud disposed on the bracket and is liftable, wherein the adjustable stud is connected to the pressing member, the adjustable stud is for adjusting a tilt angle of the pressing member to the supporting portion.

9. The wearable device of claim 1 , wherein the supporting portion of the casing member comprises a cushion.
