Abstract

An earphone device (1) to be worn in the ear, which earphone device (1) comprising a main body (18) to be arranged in the concha (19) of the outer ear (14) of a user and an optical sensor (35), which optical sensor (35) comprises a light emitter (16) and a light detector (17). The earphone device (1) comprises window means (8, 9) through which light emitted by the light emitter (16) can be transmitted. The window means (8, 9) comprises an end face (31) adapted to abut a conchal wall (37) at a sensing position (36). The main body (18) comprises a speaker protrusion (26) to be inserted into to ear canal (15). The distance between the speaker protrusion (26) and the end face (31) is adjustable.

Description

Technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an earphone device to be worn in the ear. The earphone device includes a main body arranged in the pinna of a user’s outer ear and an optical sensor, the main body including a speaker protrusion to be inserted into the ear canal, the optical The sensor includes a light emitter and a light detector, and wherein the earphone device includes a window device through which light emitted by the light emitter can be transmitted, and the window device includes a window device adapted to abut against the auricle wall at a sensing position The end face. Background technique [0002] When users are moving back and forth or exercising, earphones or headsets with in-ear headphones are often used to listen to music. People who exercise also often use a heart rate monitor that is worn around the chest cavity and connected to a running watch or smart phone wirelessly or by wire. In recent years, headphones with a built-in heart rate monit...
