Wrist Band Attachment for a Wearable Device
First Claim
1. A wearable device, comprising:
- an electronics module having a first peripheral mating surface extending around a periphery of the electronics module, wherein the first peripheral mating surface includes a first level portion and a second level portion, wherein the second level portion is substantially concentric with and extends from the first level portion, and wherein the second level portion is configured to meet the first level portion at the periphery of the electronics module to form a step;
a strap configured for removable placement about an external body surface; and
a holder coupled to the strap, wherein the holder defines a frame configured to receive the electronics module, wherein the frame includes a second peripheral mating surface opposing the first peripheral mating surface of the electronics module, wherein the second peripheral mating surface includes a respective step configured to mate with the step of the first peripheral mating surface.

Abstract
A wearable device includes an electronics module having a first peripheral mating surface extending around a periphery of the electronics module. The first peripheral mating surface includes a first level portion and a second level portion. The second level portion is substantially concentric with the first level portion. The second level portion is configured to meet the first level portion at the periphery of the electronics module to form a step. The wearable device also includes a strap configured for removable placement about an external body surface. The wearable device further includes a holder coupled to the strap. The holder defines a frame configured to receive the electronics module. The frame includes a second peripheral mating surface opposing the first peripheral mating surface of the electronics module. The second peripheral mating surface includes a respective step configured to mate with the step of the first peripheral mating surface.

11. A method, comprising:
-
securing an electronics module within a holder coupled to a strap to form a wearable device, wherein;
(i) the electronics module includes a first peripheral mating surface extending around a periphery of the electronics module, (ii) the first peripheral mating surface includes a first level portion and a second level portion, (iii) the second level portion is substantially concentric with and extends from the first level portion, (iv) the second level portion is configured to meet the first level portion at the periphery of the electronics module to form a step, (v) the strap is configured for removable placement about an external body surface, (vi) the holder defines a frame configured to receive the electronics module, (vii) the frame includes a second peripheral mating surface opposing the first peripheral mating surface of the electronics module, (viii) the second peripheral mating surface includes a respective step configured to mate with the step of the first peripheral mating surface as the electronics module is secured within the holder, (ix) the frame defines an opening over the external body surface, and (x) the electronics module includes a biological sensor configured to obtain one or more measurements via the external body surface through the opening defined by the frame;mounting the wearable device to the external body surface such that the opening is over the external body surface; causing the biological sensor coupled to the electronics module to obtain the one or more measurements via the external body surface through the opening defined by the frame; and receiving, from the wearable device, a user-discernible indication of the one or more measurements. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
