Glasses-shaped electronic device
A left electronic-component compartment has a left FPC receiving port, through which a flexible printed circuit (FPC) is inserted into the left electronic-component compartment, located adjacent to a left hinge. In the left electronic-component compartment, a left waterproof member is fitted adjacent to a left connector, which serves as a connection between the FPC and a battery. The left waterproof member prevents moisture, dust, and other foreign matter from entering the battery. A right electronic-component compartment has a right FPC receiving port, through which the FPC is inserted into the right electronic-component compartment, located adjacent to a right hinge. In the right electronic-component compartment, a right waterproof member is fitted adjacent to a right connector, serving as a connection between the FPC and electric circuitry. The right waterproof member prevents moisture, dust, and other foreign matter from entering the electric circuitry.
1. A glasses-shaped electronic device comprising:
an eyeglass frame having a bridge, a pair of rims, a pair of hinges, a pair of temples, and a pair of temple tips, the eyeglass frame further including:
a pair of first conductor compartments each formed within and extending through corresponding one of the temples and the corresponding one of the temple tips; and
a second conductor compartment formed within and extending from the bridge on both sides through the rims;
an electronic circuit component received in at least one of the first conductor compartments at the corresponding one of the temple tips;
a human characteristic detecting unit mounted in the bridge, the human characteristic detecting unit detecting an eye potential while being in contact with a human nose;
a conductor received in the first conductor compartments and the second conductor compartment such that the conductor extends from the bridge to both sides thereof through the second conductor compartment, the hinges, and the first conductor compartments so as to establish electrical connection between the human characteristic detecting unit and the electronic circuit component,
wherein each of the first conductor compartments includes a first opening to receive the conductor therethrough into the first conductor compartment, the eyeglass frame further comprising:
at least one first waterproof member fitted in at least one of the first conductor compartments and disposed between the first opening and the electronic circuit component, thereby preventing moisture, dust, or foreign matter, which entered the first conductor compartment through the first opening, from entering the electronic circuit component.
2. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the conductor includes a flexible printed circuit.
3. The electronic device according to claim 2 , wherein a first end of the flexible printed circuit is connected to the electronic circuit component by a connector.
4. The electronic device according to claim 3 , wherein the first end of the flexible printed circuit is attached to the connector by a positioning retainer disposed in the corresponding one of the first conductor compartment.
5. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the second conductor compartment includes at least one second openings to receive the conductor therethrough into the second conductor compartment, the eyeglass frame further comprising:
a second waterproof member fitted in the second conductor compartment and disposed between the at least one second opening and the human characteristic detecting unit, thereby preventing moisture, dust, or foreign matter, which entered the second conductor compartment through the at least one second opening, from entering the human characteristic detecting unit.
6. The electronic device according to claim 5 , wherein the first waterproof member is fitted near a connection between the conductor and the electronic circuit component in the first conductor compartment, and the second waterproof member is fitted near a connection between the conductor and the human characteristic detecting unit in the second conductor compartment.
7. The electronic device according to claim 5 , wherein the second opening is formed on the rim near corresponding one of the hinges.
8. The electronic device according to claim 1 , wherein the first opening is formed on the temple near corresponding one of the hinges.
