[0026] It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0027] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 , which is a schematic diagram of the hardware structure of the anti-slip device for an earphone provided in each embodiment of the present invention. The anti-slip device for an earphone includes components such as an execution module 01, a memory 02, a processor 03, and a battery system. Those skilled in the art can understand that Figure 1 the device shown in

[0028] The execution module 01 can collect the vibration frequency of the earphone in real time, start the motion anti-slip mode of the earphone, and increase the relative displacement resistance between the earphone and the ear canal according to the motion anti-slip mode.

Among them, the application processor mainly processes the operating system, user interface, application programs, etc., and the modulation and demodulation processor mainly processes wireless communication. It can be understood that the above modulation and demodulation processor may not be integrated into Processor 03.

[0031] Those skilled in the art can understand that Figure 1 the structure of the anti-slip device of the earphone shown in

[0032] does not constitute a limitation on the device, and may include more or fewer components than shown in the figure, or combine certain components, or have different component arrangements.

[0033] In recent years, with the rapid development of smart devices, smart earphones have emerged as the times require. TWS earphones have grown rapidly with their wireless and intelligent features and have become the new favorite in the Bluetooth earphone industry. In life, TWS earphones get rid of the bondage of wires, making them more portable and widely used in people's daily activities. However, when the user is in a moving state, especially in a relatively intense moving state, the TWS earphones will vibrate at a high frequency along with the user's movement, resulting in the earphones being prone to slipping. In a worse case, the phenomenon of losing the earphones will occur, so the user experience is severely degraded.

[0034] To solve the above problems, this application proposes an anti-slip method for earphones. Referring to Figure 2 in the first embodiment of the anti-slip method for the earphones of the present invention, the anti-slip method for the earphones includes:

[0035] Step S100, real-time collect the first vibration frequency of the earphone, and judge whether the first vibration frequency is greater than the vibration frequency threshold;

[0036] As described above, the earphone in the present application is equipped with an anti-slip device for the earphone. Further, the anti-slip device of the earphone includes a housing having an installation cavity, and a driving member, a transmission assembly, and an anti-slip member disposed in the installation cavity. A plurality of notches are formed in the side wall of the housing. One end of the transmission assembly is connected to the output shaft of the driving member, and the other end is connected to the anti-slip member. The driving member rotates to drive the transmission assembly to reciprocate in the sound channel direction, and the transmission assembly drives the anti-slip member to extend or retract from the notch. Specifically, the driving member is a vibration motor, the transmission assembly is a rubber rod, and the anti-slip member is a retractable silica gel film. In addition, the earphone also has a sensor capable of collecting the vibration frequency of the earphone and an earphone processor with a calculation function.

[0037] In this embodiment, referring to Figure 3 , during the application of the Bluetooth earphone, that is, after the user wears the earphone, the sensor collects the first vibration frequency of the earphone and transmits the first vibration frequency to the earphone processor. The earphone processor compares the first vibration frequency with the vibration frequency threshold to analyze whether the earphone needs to start the motion anti-slip mode. Specifically, if the first vibration frequency of the earphone is greater than the vibration frequency threshold, it is considered that the user is in a relatively intense exercise process and there is a risk of the earphone slipping, so the motion anti-slip mode of the earphone needs to be started; if the first vibration frequency of the earphone is less than or equal to the vibration frequency threshold, it is considered that the user is in a static state or the amplitude of the exercise is small at this time, and there is no risk of the earphone slipping, so there is no need to start the motion anti-slip mode of the earphone. Among them, the first vibration frequency is the vibration frequency of the earphone when it is not in the anti-slip mode.

[0038] Step S200, if the first vibration frequency is greater than the vibration frequency threshold, determine whether the earphone is in the motion anti-slip mode;

[0039] In this embodiment, after the earphone processor determines that the first vibration frequency is greater than the vibration frequency threshold, the earphone processor will further determine whether the earphone is in the motion anti-slip mode. If the earphone is already in the anti-slip mode, there is no need to change the motion state of the vibration motor. If the earphone is not in the anti-slip mode, the earphone processor issues an anti-slip command to the vibration motor to start the motion anti-slip mode of the earphone.

[0040] Step S300, if the earphone is not in the motion anti-slip mode, start the motion anti-slip mode of the earphone and increase the relative displacement resistance between the earphone and the ear canal according to the motion anti-slip mode.

[0041] In one embodiment, the earphone includes an earphone housing, and the step of increasing the relative displacement resistance between the earphone and the ear canal according to the motion anti-slip mode includes:

[0042] Control the anti-slip member in the earphone housing to pop out from the notch opened on the side wall of the earphone housing, so as to increase the relative displacement resistance between the earphone and the ear canal.

[0043] In this embodiment, when it is detected that the earphone is not in the motion anti-slip mode and the first vibration frequency is greater than the vibration frequency threshold, the motion anti-slip mode of the earphone is started. Among them, starting the motion anti-slip mode means that the earphone processor sends an anti-slip instruction to the vibration motor to control the vibration motor to vibrate outwards. At this time, the force generated by the vibration motor will push the rubber rod outwards, thereby driving the arc silicone film to pop out from the notch of the earphone housing, so that the contour shape of the earphone shell changes in the ear canal, increasing the relative displacement resistance between the earphone and the ear canal, and further fixing the earphone in the ear canal. Further, the relative displacement resistance can be increased by increasing the contact area between the earphone and the ear canal, and the relative displacement resistance between the earphone and the ear canal can also be increased by increasing the roughness of the contact surface between the earphone and the ear canal.

[0044] By comparing the vibration frequency of the earphone with the vibration frequency threshold, it is determined whether the user wearing the earphone is in a motion state. If the user is in a motion state, it can be considered that it is necessary to start the motion anti-slip mode of the earphone, that is, to control the anti-slip member in the earphone housing to pop out from the notch opened on the side wall of the earphone housing, so as to increase the relative displacement resistance between the earphone and the ear canal, and further fix the earphone in the ear canal.

[0045] In one embodiment, after the step of controlling the anti-slip member in the earphone housing to pop out from the notch opened on the side wall of the earphone housing, it includes:

[0046] Real-time collect the second vibration frequency in the motion anti-slip mode of the earphone, and judge whether the second vibration frequency is greater than the vibration frequency threshold;

[0047] If the second vibration frequency is less than or equal to the vibration frequency threshold, control the anti-slip member to reset.

[0048] In this embodiment, after starting the anti-slip motion mode, that is, after the headphone processor controls the anti-slip member in the headphone housing to pop out from the notch opened on the side wall of the headphone housing, the sensor continuously and real-time collects the second vibration frequency of the headphone, and every fixed period of time, transmits the second vibration frequency to the headphone processor, compares the second vibration frequency with the vibration frequency threshold, and continues to determine whether the second vibration frequency is greater than the vibration frequency threshold. If the second vibration frequency is greater than the vibration frequency threshold, the current anti-slip motion mode is maintained; if the second vibration frequency is less than or equal to the vibration frequency threshold, it is determined that there is no risk of the headphone slipping, and the anti-slip motion mode is turned off, that is, the headphone processor sends a recovery instruction to the vibrating headphone to control the vibration motor to vibrate inward, so that the vibration motor drives the rubber rod to retract inward, thereby driving the arc-shaped silica gel film to retract from the notch of the headphone housing. Among them, the first vibration frequency is the headphone vibration frequency when the headphone is in the anti-slip mode.

[0049] In one embodiment, before the step of determining whether the first vibration frequency is greater than the vibration frequency threshold, it includes:

[0050] Collect the static vibration frequency of the headphone when the user is stationary, and collect the motion vibration frequency of the headphone when the user is in motion;

[0051] Calculate the vibration frequency threshold according to the static vibration frequency and the motion vibration frequency.

[0052] In this embodiment, before collecting the vibration frequency of the headphone and comparing the vibration frequency of the headphone with the vibration frequency threshold, it is necessary to determine the vibration frequency threshold, and the determination of the vibration frequency threshold requires collecting the static vibration frequency and the motion vibration frequency of the headphone through the sensor. Among them, the static vibration frequency is the average value of the vibration frequencies of the headphones of a large number of users in a normal sitting or standing state; the motion vibration frequency is the average value of the vibration frequencies of the headphones of a large number of users in a motion state. After obtaining the static vibration frequency and the motion vibration frequency, the vibration frequency threshold can be calculated according to the static vibration frequency and the motion vibration frequency.

[0053] In one embodiment, the step of calculating the vibration frequency threshold according to the static vibration frequency and the motion vibration frequency includes:

[0054] Set the sum value of the static vibration frequency and the motion vibration frequency as the first sum value;

[0055] Set the first preset multiple of the first sum value as the vibration frequency threshold.

[0056] In this embodiment, after calculating the static vibration frequency and the movement frequency, the sum of the static vibration frequency and the movement vibration frequency is added to obtain a first sum value, and a first preset multiple of the first sum value is set as the vibration frequency threshold. The first preset multiple is preset by those skilled in the art and can be adjusted in a timely manner. Preferably, the first preset multiple is one half.

[0057] Referring Figure 4 , the present invention also provides an anti-slip device for an earphone. The anti-slip device for the earphone includes an earphone, a housing of the earphone having an installation cavity, and a driving member, a transmission assembly, and an anti-slip member disposed in the installation cavity. A plurality of notches are formed in the side wall of the housing. One end of the transmission assembly is connected to the output shaft of the driving member, and the other end is connected to the anti-slip member. The driving member rotates to drive the transmission assembly to reciprocate along the sound channel direction, and the transmission assembly drives the anti-slip member to extend or retract from the notch.

[0058] Further, the driving member is a vibration motor, and the transmission assembly is a rubber rod.

[0059] Further, the anti-slip member is a silicone film.

[0060] In addition, the housing of the earphone installation cavity further has a sensor capable of collecting the vibration frequency of the earphone and an earphone processor having a calculation function. The sensor collects the vibration frequency of the earphone and transmits the vibration frequency to the earphone processor. The earphone processor compares the vibration frequency of the earphone with the vibration frequency threshold to analyze whether the earphone needs to start the movement anti-slip mode.

[0061] Specifically, in this embodiment, when the movement anti-slip mode is turned on, the earphone processor sends an anti-slip instruction to the vibration motor to make the vibration motor rotate. The vibration motor is connected to the rubber rod through a threaded structure connector. Therefore, the rotation of the vibration motor can drive the rubber rod to reciprocate along the sound channel direction, thereby driving the anti-slip member to extend or retract from the notch.

[0062] In another embodiment, the vibration motor is fixedly connected to the rubber rod. After receiving the anti-slip instruction sent by the earphone processor, the vibration motor vibrates up and down, driving the rubber rod to reciprocate along the sound channel direction, thereby driving the anti-slip member to extend or retract from the notch.

[0063] In addition, the notches formed in the side wall of the housing include a guiding structure capable of guiding the direction in which the anti-slip member extends or retracts from the notch.

[0064] The present invention also provides an anti-slip device for an earphone. The anti-slip device for the earphone includes a memory, a processor, and an anti-slip program for the earphone stored on the memory and executable on the processor. The anti-slip program for the earphone is used to execute the methods described in the various embodiments of the present invention.

[0065] The present invention also provides a storage medium, on which a non-slip program for an earphone is stored. The storage medium includes a computer-readable storage medium, which may be Figure 1 a memory in the above, or at least one of ROM (Read-Only Memory), RAM (Random Access Memory), magnetic disk, and optical disc. The storage medium includes several instructions for causing an Internet of Things terminal device having a processor (which may be a mobile phone, a computer, a server, an Internet of Things terminal, or a network device, etc.) to execute the methods described in various embodiments of the present invention.
