Abstract

A wearable electronic device includes a band, a gas inlet member, and a gas outlet member. The band defines a sound chamber. The gas inlet member and the gas outlet member are both positioned on the band and communicated with the sound chamber. When the gas inlet member is pressed, air enters into the sound chamber and the sound chamber expands to an expanded state. When the gas outlet member is pressed, the air is exhausted from the gas outlet member and the sound chamber restores to an original state.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A wearable electronic device comprising:
a band defining a sound chamber;
a gas injection member positioned on the band; and
a gas outlet member positioned on the band and spaced from the gas injection member;
wherein the gas injection member and the gas outlet member are both in communication with the sound chamber, when the gas injection member is pressed, air enters into the sound chamber and the sound chamber expands to an expanded state; when the gas outlet member is pressed, the air is exhausted from the gas outlet member and the sound chamber restores to an original state.

2. The wearable electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the band comprises a first wall and a second wall spaced apart from the first wall, the first wall and the second wall cooperatively form the sound chamber therebetween.

3. The wearable electronic device of claim 2 , further comprising a loudspeaker, wherein the first wall defines a plurality of sound holes, the loudspeaker is positioned at an interior of the band and is aligned with the plurality of sound holes.

4. The wearable electronic device of claim 2 , further comprising two loudspeakers positioned at an interior of the band, wherein the first wall defines two groups of sound holes, one loudspeaker corresponds to and is aligned with one group of the sound holes.

5. The wearable electronic device of claim 2 , further comprising a dial, wherein the dial is embedded at a surface of the first wall.

6. The wearable electronic device of claim 5 , wherein the dial comprises a display unit, the display unit is a touch panel.

7. The wearable electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the band is made of an elastic material.

8. A wearable electronic device comprising:
a band defining a sound chamber and a plurality of sound holes;
a loudspeaker positioned at an interior of the band and aligned with the group of sound holes;
a gas injection member positioned on the band;
a gas outlet member positioned on the band and spaced from the gas injection member;
wherein the band is made of an elastic material, the gas injection member is configured to be pressed for allowing air to enter into the sound chamber so that the sound chamber expands to an expanded state, sound from the loudspeaker is spread in the expanded sound chamber and leaks from the group of sound holes; and the gad outlet member is configured to be pressed for allowing the air is exhausted from the gas outlet member and the sound chamber restored to an original state.

9. The wearable electronic device of claim 8 , wherein the gas injection member is in communication with the sound chamber.

10. The wearable electronic device of claim 8 , wherein the gas outlet member is communicated with the sound chamber.

11. The wearable electronic device of claim 8 , wherein the band comprises a first wall and a second wall spaced apart from the first wall, the first wall and the second wall cooperatively form the sound chamber therebetween.

12. The wearable electronic device of claim 11 , further comprising a dial, wherein the dial is embedded at a surface of the first wall.

13. The wearable electronic device of claim 12 , wherein the dial comprises a display unit, the display unit is a touch panel.
