When the following description refers to the drawings, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements unless otherwise indicated. The implementations described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all implementations consistent with the embodiments of the present invention. Instead, they are merely examples of devices and methods consistent with some aspects of the embodiments of the present invention as detailed in the appended claims.

[0058] The terms used in the embodiments of the present invention are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments, and are not intended to limit the embodiments of the present invention.

[0059] It should be understood that although the terms first, second, third, etc. may be used to describe various information in embodiments of the present invention, these information should not be limited to these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish the same type of information from each other. For example, without departing from the scope of embodiments of the present invention, the first information may also be referred to as the second information, and similarly, the second information may also be referred to as the first information. Depending on the context, the word "if" as used herein may be interpreted as "at the time of" or "when" or "in response to determining".

[0060] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present disclosure provides a communication device, including:

[0061] A supporting shell, used for transmitting a first vibration signal;

[0062] An encoder 50, located in the supporting shell, is used to detect a first vibration signal of the supporting shell, and encode the first vibration signal transmitted by the supporting shell into coded information encoded in a non-natural language;

[0063] A processing module, located in the supporting housing and connected to the encoder 50, for converting the coded information into a wireless output signal;

[0064] The wireless communication component 20 is located in the supporting shell, connected to the processing module, and sends the wireless output signal to a first target device; wherein the first target device is capable of converting the encoded information into a first audio signal and / or text signal encoded in a natural language.

[0065] In the disclosed embodiment, the supporting encoder, processing module, wireless communication component and other devices are all located in the supporting shell, and the supporting shell has a protective effect on these devices. The first vibration signal includes: a signal formed when the supporting shell is vibrated by an external force. For example: when the user inputs the information to be transmitted, the supporting shell can be vibrated by applying an external force to the supporting shell by knocking or pressing, and the supporting shell transmits the first vibration signal during the vibration process.

[0066] Natural language refers to language information that can be understood intuitively, such as voice information or text information. In contrast to natural language, non-natural language refers to language information that cannot be understood intuitively, such as information represented by light signals with different irradiation time lengths, or information represented by sound signals with different durations.

[0067] In a specific example, the user taps the support shell, and the frequency of the user tapping the support shell is different, and the frequency of the vibration generated by the support shell is different; the duration of each tapping by the user is different, and the duration of the vibration generated by the support shell is also different. Different vibration frequencies and different vibration durations can both represent different first vibration signals.

[0068] In some embodiments, the processing module is further used to generate control information according to the first vibration signal. In practical applications, the control information includes but is not limited to: information for controlling the volume of the communication device, or information for controlling the communication device to be turned on or off.

[0069] Wireless communication components include those that do not require a transmitter and a receiver, such as a transceiver antenna. Wireless communication components include, but are not limited to, Bluetooth, WiFi (wireless broadband), GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications), and other cellular communication components.

[0070] The duration and / or frequency information of the vibration of the supporting shell carries the information that the user needs to transmit, which is non-natural language information. Compared with natural language information such as voice information or text information input by the user, the duration and / or frequency information of the vibration of the supporting shell reduces the leakage of the user's input information due to the barrier of understanding.

[0071] The encoder encodes the duration and / or frequency information of the vibration of the supporting shell to form non-natural language coded information. The wireless output signal formed by the conversion of the coded information also belongs to a signal coded in a non-natural language. Even if the wireless output signal is leaked, the output signal cannot be easily understood before being decoded to form a natural language code. Therefore, the use of the encoder further reduces the possibility of leakage during information transmission. In summary, the communication device of the embodiment of the present disclosure not only ensures the privacy of communication during the user input information, but also improves the privacy of communication during information transmission.

[0072] In practical applications, the supporting shell generally has the ability to deform. When the supporting shell is vibrated, it will deform. The duration and / or frequency information of the deformation can represent the vibration information of the first vibration signal.

[0073] In other optional embodiments, the wireless communication component 20 is further used to receive a wireless input signal transmitted by a second target device;

[0074] The processing module is further used to receive the wireless input signal and convert the wireless input signal into a second audio signal;

[0075] The communication device further comprises:

[0076] The actuator 30 is located in the supporting shell, in contact with the supporting shell, and connected to the processing module.

[0077] The exciter 30 is used to receive the second audio signal and convert the second audio signal into a second vibration signal; wherein the second vibration signal can be transmitted to the user's ear through the supporting shell.

[0078] In the disclosed embodiment, during the information reception process, the exciter can convert the received second audio signal into a second vibration signal audible to the user. Without limitation, the exciter includes a planar coil and a permanent magnet, with a gap between the planar coil and the permanent magnet, and the current of the second audio signal in the form of an electrical signal flows in the coil, and generates a driving force in the coil according to the principle of electromagnetic action, and the driving force is then output by the permanent magnet in the form of vibration as a simulated vibration signal.

[0079] The first vibration signal generated by the exciter propagates in the support shell in the form of a vibration wave. In practical applications, the support shell can be attached to the skull on both sides of the user's ears, or inserted into the ear canal, and the first vibration signal is transmitted to the ear by bone conduction. At this time, the confidential communication device of the embodiment of the present disclosure can be specifically used as a bone conduction headset. Alternatively, the support shell can be placed in the user's mouth and installed on the teeth, and the vibration signal generated by the exciter passes through the vibration shell and is transmitted to the ear by the teeth. Therefore, the communication device of the embodiment of the present disclosure can be suitable for communication in a high-noise environment, or for users with partial hearing loss.

[0080] The communication device disclosed in the present invention can communicate with the same target device during both the output and input processes of information. In this case, the second target device is the same as the first target device. Alternatively, the communication device disclosed in the present invention can only send a wireless output signal encoded in a non-natural language to the same target device (i.e., the first target device). However, it can receive a wireless input signal sent by another target device (i.e., the second target device). In this case, the second target device and the first target device refer to two different types of devices. Among them, the wireless input signal sent by the second target device can be a wireless input signal formed based on natural speech.

[0081] In the disclosed embodiment, the coded information of the non-natural language coding includes: Morse coding information. The duration and / or frequency information of the vibration of the supporting shell can also be information encrypted according to the Morse rule. In addition, the coded information of the non-natural speech coding can also be encoded using other encryption rules.

[0082] In other optional embodiments, the support shell includes:

[0083] The first part 11 has a receiving space, and the encoder 50 and the wireless communication component 20 are both located in the receiving space;

[0084] A second part 12, mounted on the first part 11, in contact with the encoder 50;

[0085] The second part 12 is used to transmit the first vibration signal based on the external force acting on the second part.

[0086] In practical applications, the second portion 12 is a deformation portion, which is used to generate deformation based on an external force acting on the second portion 12 .

[0087] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first part and the second part can be made of different materials, and the structure of the first part and the structure of the second part can also be different. Compared with the first part, the second part can be made of a material that is more easily deformed, for example: the material of the first part is hard plastic, and the material of the second part is rubber. The elasticity of rubber is better than that of hard plastic, and it is more easily deformed. Rubber includes but is not limited to silicone or natural rubber.

[0088] like Figure 1 As shown, in actual application, the encoder that needs to detect deformation can be aligned and contacted with the second part, and the exciter that needs to transmit the vibration signal can be aligned and contacted with the second part. Other structures, such as wireless communication components and processing modules, are aligned with the first part. The supporting shell of this structure can not only ensure the protection of the wireless communication components and processing modules, but also ensure the accuracy of deformation detection and transmission of vibration signals.

[0089] In other optional embodiments, the second part is: a brace;

[0090] The braces are located between the upper teeth and the lower teeth, and the braces are fixed on the upper teeth; or, the braces are fixed on the lower teeth.

[0091] like Figure 1 As shown, the second part 12 is recessed relative to the first part 11, and the recess forms a mouthpiece for teeth to be embedded in. The mouthpiece forms at least one groove-shaped wearing position matching the teeth.

[0092] In practical applications, the communication device disclosed herein can be contained in the mouth, and the braces can be fixed on the upper teeth or lower teeth without affecting the opening and closing of the upper teeth and the lower teeth. It can be understood that, in order to facilitate bite, the braces include a first wearing position 121 and a second wearing position 122, wherein the first wearing position 121 is opposite to the lower teeth and is provided for the lower teeth to be embedded. The second wearing position 122 is opposite to the upper teeth and is provided for the upper teeth to be embedded, wherein the first wearing position 121 can be fixed to the lower teeth by the tightness of the combination with the lower teeth. Alternatively, the second wearing position 122 can be fixed to the upper teeth by the tightness of the combination with the upper teeth. For example: Take the first wearing position 121 fixed on the lower teeth as an example: the width of the groove of the first wearing position 121 can be made slightly smaller than the width of the lower teeth, so that the lower teeth are embedded in the first wearing position 121 by interference fit, and are not easy to detach. Accordingly, the width of the groove of the second wearing position 122 matching the upper teeth can be made slightly larger than the width of the upper teeth, so that there is a gap between the upper teeth and the second wearing position 122, so that the upper teeth can be easily detached from the second wearing position 122, thereby achieving external force on the braces or canceling the external force during the opening and closing of the upper and lower teeth.

[0093] When the upper teeth and lower teeth bite, external force will be applied to the braces, and the braces will deform. When the upper teeth and lower teeth are separated, the external force applied to the braces disappears, and the braces will not deform. Therefore, the frequency of the opening and closing of the upper and lower teeth determines the frequency of the deformation of the braces (i.e., the supporting shell), and the time when the upper and lower teeth bite is the time when the braces deform. Through the cooperation of the upper and lower teeth, the input information can be converted into the duration and / or frequency information of the deformation of the supporting shell.

[0094] The use scenarios of the communication device of the embodiment of the present disclosure may include: underwater communication. When it is inconvenient for the user to speak underwater, the user can input and send information only by opening and closing the upper and lower teeth under the premise of keeping the lips tightly closed.

[0095] If the communication device is worn on the outer ear for bone conduction, the coupling efficiency between the skull and the jaw is related to the muscles on the jaw, and the efficiency is lower when the muscles are thicker. Wearing the communication device on the teeth can further improve the efficiency of information transmission.

[0096] In other optional embodiments, the communication device further includes:

[0097] A wireless charging component, used to receive a charging signal transmitted by a power source;

[0098] A battery 40, located in the supporting housing and connected to the wireless communication component 20, for storing electrical energy based on the charging signal;

[0099] The battery is also connected to the processing module and the wireless communication component respectively, and is used to supply power to the processing module and the wireless communication component.

[0100] In the disclosed embodiment, the battery stores electric energy by means of wireless charging, and the electric energy stored in the battery is consumed by the communication device during the process of sending and receiving information.

[0101] In a specific example, the communication device further includes: a circuit board having a connection circuit, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the wireless charging component is connected to the circuit board 60, and the wireless communication component is connected to the circuit board 60. When the communication device also includes an exciter, the battery can be indirectly connected to the wireless communication component, the processing module and the exciter through the connecting circuit and supply power.

[0102] In other embodiments of the present disclosure, the communication device can also be charged in a wired manner. For example, the charging component is a wired charging component, which is installed in the supporting housing and has a charging interface. The external power source can be connected to the charging interface through a wire to charge the battery connected to the wired charging component.

[0103] It is understandable that the charging method of the wireless charging component is more convenient, does not require a charging interface, and is more conducive to supporting the protective functions of the shell such as closure and safety.

[0104] In other optional embodiments, the communication device further includes:

[0105] An amplifier, connected to the processing module and the exciter 30 respectively;

[0106] The amplifier is used to amplify the second audio signal converted by the processing module and output the amplified second audio signal to the exciter 30 .

[0107] The amplifier is used to amplify the second audio signal generated by the wireless communication component 20 and send the amplified second audio signal to the exciter 30 to ensure the quality of the second audio signal.

[0108] In a specific example, if Figure 2 As shown, the communication device includes a vibration exciter, an amplifier, a micro Morse encoder, a wireless communication component, a processing module, a battery, a wireless charging component and other devices. All of the above devices can be encapsulated in the support shell through the line connection on the circuit board. The battery is wirelessly charged through the wireless charging module. The communication module can be installed on the circuit board to form a wireless module single chip computer. A silicone brace is installed in the middle position of the first part of the support shell. When in use, the first end of the brace is sleeved on the lower molar, and the second end of the brace is sleeved on the upper molar, and the upper molar can be opened and closed freely. During the information reception process, the wireless communication module receives the wireless input signal and converts it into an audio signal through the single chip microcomputer. The audio amplifier amplifies the converted audio signal as the second audio signal. Then, the vibration exciter converts the second audio electrical signal into a vibration signal. The teeth bite the device, and the vibration is transmitted to the ear through the upper and lower jaws and converted into hearing. During the information sending process, the specific information is encoded by the Morse encoder through the opening and closing time and frequency of the teeth, and then the wireless communication component sends the Morse code to complete the message sending. In practical applications, the communication device can be used to keep calls confidential when people need a higher level of confidentiality. The device is held between the teeth, and the vibration exciter is efficiently transmitted to the ear through tooth bone conduction. The information is Morse-coded and transmitted through the opening and closing of the teeth, so that the information can be sent and received silently. Compared with the information transmission of some current bone conduction headphones, the communication device of the disclosed embodiment has better confidentiality.

[0109] like Figure 3 As shown, the embodiment of the present disclosure further provides a communication method, which is used for the communication device described in any of the above embodiments, and at least includes the following steps:

[0110] Step S101, obtaining a first vibration signal transmitted by the supporting shell;

[0111] Step S102, encoding the first vibration signal into coded information encoded in a non-natural language;

[0112] Step S103, converting the coded information into a wireless output signal;

[0113] Step S104: sending the wireless output signal to a first target device, wherein the first target device can convert the coded information into a first audio signal and / or text signal encoded in a natural language.

[0114] In practical applications, step S101 includes: detecting the deformation of the support shell to obtain the deformation duration and / or frequency information of the support shell. Step S102 includes: encoding the deformation duration and / or frequency information into coded information encoded in a non-natural language.

[0115] In other optional embodiments, the communication method further includes:

[0116] receiving a wireless input signal transmitted by a second target device;

[0117] Converting the wireless input signal into a second audio signal;

[0118] The second audio signal is converted into a second vibration signal; wherein the second vibration signal can be transmitted to the user's ear through the supporting shell.

[0119] In other optional embodiments, before converting the second audio signal into the second vibration signal, the communication method further includes:

[0120] The second audio signal is amplified.

[0121] In other optional embodiments, the communication method further includes:

[0122] Receive a charging signal transmitted by a power source;

[0123] charging the battery according to the charging signal;

[0124] The processing module and the wireless communication component are powered separately.

[0125] In other optional embodiments, the communication method further includes:

[0126] Acquiring voice information of the environment in which the communication device is located;

[0127] Determining characteristic information of the voice information;

[0128] Determining the characteristic information as target information;

[0129] The encoding of the first vibration signal into the encoded information encoded in the non-natural language is stopped.

[0130] In practical applications, if the supporting shell of the communication device is formed as a dental brace, the voice information of the environment in which the communication device is located includes: in a conversation scene, the voice information of the user, and the voice information of other participants in the conversation with the user.

[0131] The characteristic information of the voice information includes but is not limited to: voiceprint information or semantic information, and the target information may be preset voiceprint information or semantic information. For example, the target information is the preset voiceprint information of the user stored in the communication device. If the voiceprint information of the voice information is consistent with the voiceprint information of the target information, it is determined that the user is speaking, and at this time, the encoding of the first vibration signal into the coded information encoded in the non-natural language is stopped, which is conducive to reducing unnecessary information transmission.

[0132] In other optional embodiments, the communication method further includes:

[0133] A control signal is generated according to the first vibration signal.

[0134] In practical applications, the control signal is at least used to control the volume of the communication device, or to control the opening or closing of the communication device, etc.

[0135] The embodiment of the present disclosure also provides a communication device, including a processor, a memory, and an executable program stored in the memory and capable of being run by the processor, characterized in that the processor executes the steps of the communication method described in any of the above embodiments when running the executable program. The embodiment of the present disclosure also provides a storage medium, on which an executable program is stored, characterized in that the executable program implements the steps of the communication method described in any of the above embodiments when executed by the processor.
