## Abstract

A wearable electronic device includes a device body having a wireless communication module, a wearing unit connected to the device body for being worn on a user, an antenna module entirely embedded inside the wearing unit, and a conductive unit is partially disposed in the wearing unit and electrically connected to the antenna module and the wireless communication module.

## Claims

### Claim 1

A wearable electronic device, comprising:
a device body having a recess and a first installation portion disposed in the recess;
a wireless communication module disposed in the device body, and exposed outwards from the recess;
a wearing unit comprising:
a plastic wearing member having an end portion thereof; and
a plastic connection portion comprising two extending ribs and a second installation portion being opposite to the extending ribs and exposed outwards from the end portion of the plastic wearing member, wherein the extending ribs are embedded inside in the end portion of the plastic wearing member so as to form an opening between the extending ribs in the end portion of the plastic wearing member, and the second installation portion is detachably connected to the first installation portion, wherein a melting point of the plastic connection portion is greater than a melting point of the plastic wearing member;
an antenna module entirely embedded inside the plastic wearing member; and
a conductive unit comprising:
a support body entirely embedded inside the plastic connection portion; and
a plurality of metallic elastic pieces abreast arranged on the support body at intervals, and electrically connected to the antenna module in the opening,
wherein, when the plastic connection portion enters the recess, and the second installation portion is connected to the first installation portion, the metallic elastic pieces elastically contact with terminals of the wireless communication module.

### Claim 2

(canceled)

### Claim 3 (depends on 1)

The wearable electronic device of claim 1, wherein a hardness of the plastic connection portion is greater than a hardness of the plastic wearing member.

### Claim 4

(canceled)

### Claim 5 (depends on 1)

The wearable electronic device of claim 1, wherein the plastic connection portion is provided with a plurality of slots, and the slots are abreast arranged at intervals and exposed outwards from the end portion of the plastic wearing member, and the metallic elastic pieces extend outwards from the plastic connection portion via the slots, respectively.

### Claim 6 (depends on 1)

The wearable electronic device of claim 1, wherein the device body comprises at least one metallic shell, and the wireless communication module is disposed in the metallic shell.

### Claim 7 (depends on 1)

The wearable electronic device of claim 1, wherein the wearable electronic device is a digital watch, a pair of glasses, a bracelet, a card hanger or a headphone.

### Claim 8 (depends on 1)

The wearable electronic device of claim 1, wherein the wearing unit is a wrist-worn band, and the antenna module comprises an antenna unit and a flexible wired board, the antenna unit is electrically connected to the flexible wired board and the conductive unit.

### Claim 9 (depends on 1)

The wearable electronic device of claim 1, wherein the wireless communication module is a blue-tooth wireless communication module, an infrared transmission module, a radio frequency identification (RFID) module, a WIFI network module or a near-field communication (NFC) module.

### Claim 10

A wearable electronic device, comprising:
a device body having a recess and a first installation portion disposed in the recess;
a wireless communication module disposed in the device body, and exposed outwards from the recess, wherein the wireless communication module is provided with a first conductive interface;
a wrist-worn band comprising:
a plastic wearing member having an end portion thereof;
a plastic connection portion comprising two extending ribs and a second installation portion being opposite to the extending ribs and exposed outwards from the end portion of the plastic wearing member,
wherein the extending ribs are embedded inside in the end portion of the plastic wearing member so as to form an opening between the extending ribs in the end portion of the plastic wearing member, and the second installation portion is detachably connected to the first installation portion, wherein a melting point of the plastic connection portion is greater than a melting point of the plastic wearing member; and
a second conductive interface formed with a support body entirely embedded inside the plastic connection portion, and a plurality of metallic elastic pieces abreast arranged on the support body at intervals, and disposed in the opening; and
an antenna module entirely embedded inside the plastic wearing member, and electrically connected to the metallic elastic pieces of the second conductive interface,
wherein, when the plastic connection portion enters the recess, and the second installation portion is connected to the first installation portion, the metallic elastic pieces elastically contact with terminals of the wireless communication module.

### Claim 11

(canceled)

### Claim 12 (depends on 10)

The wearable electronic device of claim 10, wherein a hardness of the plastic connection portion is greater than a hardness of the plastic wearing member.

### Claim 13

(canceled)
