Abstract
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a housing, a printed circuit board disposed inside the housing and including a first face and a second face that faces away from the first face, a connection member disposed on the first face and electrically connected to the printed circuit board, a switch member disposed on the first face and at least partially overlaps the connection member when viewed from above the first face, and a button member including an electrically conductive member, and disposed to be capable of operating the switch member. The electrically conductive member is electrically connected to the connection member.
Claims20
An electronic device comprising:
- a housing;
- a printed circuit board disposed inside the housing and including a first face and a second face facing away from the first face;
- a switch member disposed on the first face and being electrically connected to the printed circuit board;
- a connection member disposed on the first face and at least partially overlapping the switch member when viewed from above the first face;
- and
- a button member including an electrically conductive member, the button member being disposed to operate the switch member,
- wherein the button member comprises:
- a guide portion disposed to be in contact with the housing;
- a first contact portion, as a portion of the electrically conductive member, disposed on the guide portion and exposed to an outside of the housing;
- a second contact portion, as a portion of the electrically conductive member, extending from the first contact portion and disposed through the guide portion;
- and
- an engaging recess formed around the second contact portion, and
- wherein an end of the electrically conductive member is electrically connected to the connection member while the connection member engages the engaging recess.
An electronic device comprising:
- a housing;
- a binding member connected to at least a portion of the housing and configured to detachably attach the housing to a user's body;
- a printed circuit board disposed inside the housing;
- a connection member disposed on the printed circuit board and electrically connected to the printed circuit board;
- a button member including an electrically conductive member electrically connected to the connection member;
- a fixing member coupled to enclose the printed circuit board in a state of facing a second face of the printed circuit board;
- a fixing recess formed in an inner wall of the housing;
- a hook formed on the fixing member, the hook engaging the fixing recess, wherein the printed circuit board is fixed between the inner wall of the housing and the fixing member;
- at least one processor disposed inside the housing;
- and
- a biometric sensor at least partially exposed to an outside of the housing,
- wherein the at least one processor is configured to detect a user's biometric information via the electrically conductive member and the biometric sensor.
An electronic device comprising:
- a housing;
- a binding member connected to at least a portion of the housing and configured to detachably attach the housing to a user's body;
