Wearable charging device for smartwatch
Disclosed is a wearable charging device for a smartwatch, including: a cradle including an accommodation groove in which a main body of a smartwatch is accommodated; and a wireless charging module mounted in the cradle to be attached to or detached from the cradle by an attachment-detachment unit and configured to generate an electromagnetic field to charge a battery embedded in the main body of the smartwatch.
1. A wearable charging device for a smartwatch, comprising:
a cradle including an accommodation groove in which a main body of a smartwatch is accommodated; and
a wireless charging module mounted in the cradle to be attached to or detached from the cradle by an attachment-detachment unit and configured to generate an electromagnetic field to charge a battery embedded in the main body of the smartwatch,
wherein the cradle includes a watch holder formed so that the accommodation groove is open downward and a module holder formed on one portion of the watch holder to extend in a lateral direction,
wherein the wireless charging module includes a charging part, which includes a coil mount unit and a power supply unit, and a cover configured to cover a lower portion of the charging part to shield the charging part,
wherein the coil mount unit is disposed on a lower portion of the accommodation groove of the watch holder and around which a first coil for generating an electromagnetic field is wound, and
wherein the power supply unit includes a battery cell and a printed circuit board embedded therein, wherein the battery cell is accommodated in the module holder and applies a current to the first coil, and the printed circuit board controls the current to be supplied from the battery cell to the first coil.
2. The device of claim 1 , wherein a magnetic field shielding sheet is additionally attached to an inner surface or an outer surface of the cover to shield a magnetic field.
3. The device of claim 1 , wherein the attachment-detachment unit includes a coupling groove, a front end-coupling protrusion, and a rear end-coupling protrusion,
wherein the coupling groove is formed in one end portion of an open edge portion on a lower portion of the accommodation groove,
the front end-coupling protrusion is formed on one end portion of the wireless charging module to protrude and is inserted in the coupling groove to be caught, and
the rear-end coupling protrusion is formed on the other end portion of the wireless charging module to protrude, is insertion-coupled to the coupling hole that is formed in the one end portion of the module holder unit to pass therethrough, and is pushed by pressure applied from the outside to escape from the coupling hole.
4. The device of claim 3 , wherein the front end-coupling protrusion has a front end portion in an upwardly pointing hook shape, and the coupling groove has a groove shape corresponding to the front end-coupling protrusion.
5. The device of claim 1 , wherein a speaker hole is formed in an edge portion of the accommodation groove of the cradle to be open from an inside of the accommodation groove toward an upper surface thereof so that sound output from the main body of the smartwatch is output to the outside through the speaker hole.
6. The device of claim 1 , further comprising a moisture-absorbing mesh that is attached to a lower surface of the wireless charging module to come into contact with skin of a user's wrist and is made of a material that absorbs sweat and expands.
7. The device of claim 1 , further comprising a band mount slot that is formed in each of both surfaces of the accommodation groove of the cradle so that a band of the smartwatch passes therethrough.
8. The device of claim 1 , further comprising a cooling pad which is formed on an inner surface of the accommodation groove of the cradle and pressed against an outer surface of the main body of the smartwatch to absorb heat.
9. A wearable charging device for a smartwatch, comprising:
a cradle including an accommodation groove in which a main body of a smartwatch is accommodated;
a wireless charging module mounted in the cradle to be attached to or detached from the cradle by an attachment-detachment unit and configured to generate an electromagnetic field to charge a battery embedded in the main body of the smartwatch; and
a cooling pad which is formed on an inner surface of the accommodation groove of the cradle and pressed against an outer surface of the main body of the smartwatch to absorb heat,
wherein the cooling pad has an outer skin part made of a flexible material and filled with a cooling medium therein so as to be elastically pressed against the outer surface of the main body of the smartwatch.
10. The device of claim 1 , further comprising a window cover mounted on one side of the cradle to be vertically rotatable about a hinge shaft, made of a transparent material, and configured to cover an upper portion of the main body of the smartwatch accommodated in the accommodation groove.
11. The device of claim 10 , wherein a shielding part is attached along an edge of the window cover and shields electromagnetic waves.
12. The device of claim 10 , further comprising a light-transmitting shielding film that is attached to an upper surface or a lower surface of the window cover and shields a magnetic field.
13. The device of claim 12 , wherein the light-transmitting shielding film has a structure in which magnetic field shielding layers, in which conductive metal wires are arranged in a lattice form, are stacked between a transparent protective layer and an adhesive layer and shield a magnetic field.
14. A wearable charging device for a smartwatch, comprising:
a cradle including an accommodation groove in which a main body of a smartwatch is accommodated;
a wireless charging module mounted in the cradle to be attached to or detached from the cradle by an attachment-detachment unit and configured to generate an electromagnetic field to charge a battery embedded in the main body of the smartwatch; and
a cooling pack that is formed on a bottom surface of the cradle or a bottom surface of the wireless charging module to be attachable and detachable, has an outer skin part made of an electromagnetic wave shielding material, filled with a cooling fluid therein, and pressed against a user's wrist so as to absorb heat.
