[0002] With the continuous improvement of people's material and cultural needs, wearable devices have shown explosive growth in recent years; for example, wireless headphones. Wireless headphones generally include two earbuds and an earphone case for storing and charging the earbuds. The two earbuds are connected wirelessly, that is, without the need for a physical connection. In actual use, audio data is transmitted wirelessly between the two earbuds and between the earbuds and the terminal device. At the same time, they are small in size, comfortable to wear, and convenient, making them extremely convenient and popular among audio equipment enthusiasts.

[0003] Currently, wireless earphones typically have buttons and other accessories on their charging cases. When pairing wireless earphones with a pre-set terminal device via Bluetooth, users can use physical buttons to make the necessary settings and enter pairing mode. However, pairing via physical buttons is not only costly but also requires manual operation, making the operation of wireless earphones more complicated and prone to errors, thus providing a poor user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0021] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

Furthermore, the terms "comprising" and "having," and any variations thereof, are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion. For example, a process, method, system, product, or device that includes a series of steps or units is not limited to the listed steps or units, but may optionally include steps or units not listed, or may optionally include other steps or units inherent to these processes, methods, products, or devices.

[0023] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0024] The present application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0025] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1 A flowchart illustrating a communication method for a wireless headset according to an embodiment of this application is provided. In this embodiment, a communication method for a wireless headset is provided. The wireless headset may be or include any number of audio devices, such as True Wireless Stereo (TWS) headphones, bone conduction headphones, in-ear headphones, open-back headphones, etc. The wireless headset may also be or include any wearable device designed to be worn on or around a user's head or ears, such as audio glasses, helmets, hats, and various other types of devices, such as hearing aids, AR devices, VR devices, head, shoulder, or body-worn acoustic devices, etc. These devices may specifically include or be connected to one or more acoustic drivers to generate sound, but may or may not be in contact with the user's ears. Specifically, the wireless headset may also include a speaker configured to generate sound in response to an audio signal sent to the speaker.

[0026] Specifically, wireless earphones often include a charging case to extend usage time and facilitate portability. The charging case serves as a backup power source for charging the earphones and also allows for more convenient operation, increasing the ease of human-computer interaction. Therefore, wireless earphones generally include earphones and a charging case. The earphones may include a first earphone and a second earphone, which can be worn on the user's left and right ears respectively. The charging case may include a body and a cover. The cover is placed on the body and cooperates with the body to form a receiving cavity to house the first and second earphones and to charge them.

[0027] Specifically, the wireless earphone communication method provided in this embodiment is applied to the earphone end, such as a first earphone and / or a second earphone, and the method specifically includes:

[0028] Step S11: The earphone receives the activation command and exits the sleep state based on the activation command.

[0029] In the initial state, in order to save energy, the headphones are generally in a sleep state. In this state, most of the headphone modules are not working, but they can be woken up by the headphone case.

[0030] The activation command is issued by the earphone case after the cover is opened. That is, after the earphone case detects that the cover is open, it generates and sends the activation command to the earphone's activation module. The earphone's activation module receives the activation command and uses it to exit the sleep state of the earphone.

[0031] Step S12: Monitor whether user operation information is received within a first preset time. If user operation information is received and the earphone is in the earphone case, execute the first instruction to establish a connection with the preset terminal device.

[0032] The first preset time can be selected according to actual needs. Preferably, the range of the first preset time is 10 seconds to 300 seconds. In the specific implementation process, the headphones can receive the user's operation information through pressure sensing, touch control, physical buttons and other operation modules.

[0033] In one embodiment, step S12 may further include detecting whether the earphone is located inside the earphone case. This step may be performed after, before, or simultaneously with "monitoring whether user operation information is received within a first preset time period". This application does not limit the order of these two steps. Specifically, whether the earphone is located inside the earphone case can be detected by detecting the state of the electrical contacts between the earphone and the earphone case, the Hall sensor, or the relative position of the earphone and the earphone case. In this embodiment, step S12 specifically includes monitoring whether user operation information is received within a first preset time period. When user operation information is received and the earphone is detected to be inside the earphone case, a first instruction is executed to establish a connection with a preset terminal device. When user operation information is received and the earphone is detected to be outside the earphone case, a second instruction is executed to perform data interaction with the preset terminal device.

[0034] Of course, in other embodiments, the presence or absence of the earphones can also be detected by the earphone case. In this embodiment, step S12 specifically includes the earphones executing a first instruction to establish a connection with a preset terminal device when they receive user operation information and a fourth instruction; and the earphones executing a second instruction to perform data interaction with the preset terminal device when they receive user operation information and a fifth instruction. The fourth instruction is issued after the earphone case detects that the earphones are inside the earphone case, and the fifth instruction is issued after the earphone case detects that the earphones are outside the earphone case.

[0035] Specifically, the earphones include an operation module and a connection module. The operation module is exposed outside the earphone case, allowing users to operate it directly without removing the earphones from the case. Specifically, the operation module may include buttons protruding from the earphones, which users can long-press or repeatedly press to allow the operation module to recognize the user's current operation. When the operation module detects the user's operation information and the earphones are inside the earphone case, the earphones execute a first instruction through the connection module to establish a connection with a preset terminal device. Specifically, the connection module can send a reconnection request to the preset terminal device to perform pairing, reconnection, and other operations.

[0036] In one specific implementation, see Figure 2 , Figure 2 A flowchart of the communication method for a wireless headset provided in the second embodiment of this application; after step S12, it further includes:

[0037] Step S13: Display the execution information of the first instruction.

[0038] Specifically, the headset also includes a display module; after the headset's connection module executes the first command, the headset's display module simultaneously displays the execution information of the first command; that is, the execution information of the headset executing the first command is specifically displayed through the headset; wherein, the execution information of the first command may include any one of pairing, connection successful, and connection failed; it can be understood that the headset may display pairing while the headset is still executing the first command; after the headset finishes executing the first command, if the pairing connection is successful, it will display connection successful, and if the pairing connection fails, it will display connection failed, so that the user can obtain the current execution status of the headset in real time.

[0039] Specifically, the display module can be a light-emitting diode (LED) or a buzzer, etc. Taking an LED as an example, different light colors, light intensities, or flashing frequencies of the LED can represent different execution information, thus displaying different execution information through different light colors, light intensities, or flashing frequencies. For example, a yellow LED indicates that the headphones are in the process of pairing, a green LED indicates a successful connection, and a red LED indicates a failed connection. Or, a fast flashing LED indicates that the headphones are pairing, a slow flash indicates a successful connection, and no flashing indicates a failed connection. Of course, if the display module is a buzzer, different execution information can be displayed through the volume, frequency of sound interruptions, or duration of sound.

[0040] In another specific embodiment, see Figure 3 , Figure 3 A flowchart of a communication method for a wireless headset provided in the third embodiment of this application; the method further includes the following after step S12:

[0041] Step S13': Generate and send a third instruction to the headphone box based on the execution information of the first instruction within a second preset time period, so that the display module of the headphone box displays the execution information of the first instruction based on the third instruction.

[0042] Specifically, the earphone may also include an instruction generation module. The instruction generation module generates and sends a third instruction to the earphone box based on the execution information of the first instruction within a second preset time, so that the display module of the earphone box displays the execution information of the first instruction based on the third instruction. That is, the execution information of the first instruction executed by the earphone is displayed on the earphone box. For the specific display method, please refer to the above-mentioned scheme of displaying through the earphone, and the same or similar technical effects can be achieved, which will not be repeated here. The second preset time may be longer than the first preset time.

[0043] This embodiment provides a communication method for wireless earphones, which include earphones and an earphone case. The method is applied to the earphone end. It receives an activation command and exits a sleep state based on the activation command. Then, it monitors whether user operation information is received within a first preset time. When user operation information is received and the earphone is inside the earphone case, a first command is executed to establish a connection with a preset terminal device. This process achieves automatic connection between the wireless earphone and the preset terminal device without adding physical buttons to the earphone case. Compared to existing technologies that require additional buttons and other related accessories on the earphone case to achieve connection via physical buttons, this method not only enables pairing, reconnection, and reset operations between the earphone and the preset terminal device but also reduces costs, resulting in a more complete earphone case structure and a more harmonious appearance. Furthermore, by executing the first command to establish a connection with the preset terminal device when user operation information is received and the earphone is inside the earphone case, compared to executing the first command even when the earphone is outside the earphone, program execution is reduced, thereby effectively improving the working efficiency of the wireless earphone.

[0044] Please see Figure 4 , Figure 4 A flowchart of a communication method for a wireless earphone provided in the fourth embodiment of this application is provided; in this embodiment, another communication method for a wireless earphone is provided. In this method, the step "detecting whether the earphone is located inside the earphone case" is specifically executed after the step "monitoring whether user operation information is received within a first preset time period"; specifically, the method includes:

[0045] Step S21: The earphone receives the activation command and exits the sleep state based on the activation command.

[0046] Step S22: Monitor whether user operation information is received within the first preset time period.

[0047] Specifically, if user operation information is received within the first preset time, step S23 is executed; if user operation information is not received within the first preset time, step S24 is executed.

[0048] Step S23: Detect whether the earphones are inside the earphone case.

[0049] Specifically, it can be determined whether the earphone is inside the earphone case by detecting the state of the contact points, the Hall sensor, and the physical parameters of the earphone and the earphone case (pressure, posture changes, etc.); if the earphone is inside the earphone case, proceed to step S25; if the earphone is outside the earphone case, proceed to step S26.

[0050] Step S24: Re-enter hibernation mode.

[0051] Step S25: Execute the first instruction to establish a connection with the preset terminal device.

[0052] Specifically, the implementation process of steps S21 to S25 is the same as or similar to the implementation process of the relevant steps involved in steps S11 to S12 in the above embodiments, and can achieve the same or similar technical effects. For details, please refer to the above-mentioned text description, which will not be repeated here.

[0053] Step S26: Execute the second instruction to interact with the preset terminal device.

[0054] Specifically, step S26 may include the earphone sending a work request to a preset terminal device, so that after the preset terminal device receives the work request, it can transmit music, news and other data to the earphone. After receiving the data, the earphone can play music or news, thereby realizing data interaction between the earphone and the preset terminal device. It should be noted that the data interaction between the earphone and the preset terminal device does not include the interaction that occurs when the two establish a connection.

[0055] The wireless earphone communication method provided in this embodiment can execute different commands depending on whether the earphone is inside the earphone case when receiving the same operation information from the user. This not only enriches the operation of the earphone but also avoids unnecessary program execution, thereby effectively improving the working efficiency of the wireless earphone and providing a better user experience. At the same time, since the operation module of the earphone that receives the user operation information is exposed outside the earphone case, the user can directly operate the operation module of the earphone without taking the earphone out of the earphone case during the specific operation process, thereby further simplifying the operation process.

[0056] Please see Figure 5 , Figure 5A flowchart of a communication method for a wireless earphone provided in the fifth embodiment of this application; in this embodiment, another communication method for a wireless earphone is provided, which is applied to the earphone case; specifically, the method includes:

[0057] Step S31: Monitor the opening signal of the cover.

[0058] In the initial state, in order to save energy, most of the modules of the headphone box are in a dormant state, but the first monitoring module of the headphone box can trigger the opening signal of the monitoring cover according to a preset time period or under preset conditions; wherein, the preset time period can be 0.5 seconds or 1 second, and the preset condition can be receiving user operation information; specifically, the specific implementation of step S13 can refer to the implementation of the monitoring cover opening in the prior art, and can achieve the same or similar technical effects, which will not be repeated here.

[0059] Step S32: Generate and send an activation command based on the power-on signal, so that the headphones exit the sleep state based on the activation command.

[0060] Specifically, after the first monitoring module of the earphone case detects the opening signal of the cover, the signal sending module of the earphone case generates and sends an activation command to the earphone based on the opening signal, so that the earphone exits the sleep state based on the activation command.

[0061] In one embodiment, after step S32, the headphone case directly enters a sleep state to save energy.

[0062] In another embodiment, see Figure 6 , Figure 6 A flowchart of a communication method for a wireless headset provided in the sixth embodiment of this application; after step S32, the method further includes:

[0063] Step S33: Monitor whether a third instruction is received within the second preset time period.

[0064] The third instruction is issued by the earphone after executing the first instruction based on the execution information of the first execution; the earphone box also includes a second monitoring module, which executes step S33; in the specific implementation process, if the second monitoring module of the earphone box receives the third instruction within a second preset time, then step S34 is executed; if the second monitoring module does not receive the third instruction within the second preset time, then step S35 is executed.

[0065] Step S34: Display the execution information of the first instruction based on the third instruction.

[0066] The execution information includes pairing in progress, connection successful, and connection failed.

[0067] Specifically, the headphone box also includes a display module. The specific structure and function of the display module of the headphone box can be found in the relevant description in step S13 of the second embodiment, and can achieve the same or similar technical effects, so it will not be described again here.

[0068] Step S35: Re-enter hibernation mode.

[0069] In another embodiment, the method may further include: detecting whether the earphone is located inside the earphone case; generating and sending a fourth instruction to the earphone when the earphone is detected to be inside the earphone case; generating and sending a fifth instruction to the earphone when the earphone is detected to be outside the earphone case; in specific embodiments, the execution order of the step "detecting whether the earphone is located inside the earphone case" is not limited.

[0070] The wireless earphone communication method provided in this embodiment is applied to the earphone case. This method monitors the opening signal of the cover, then generates and sends an activation command based on the opening signal. This causes the earphone to exit its sleep state based on the activation command, and then continues to monitor whether it receives user operation information within a first preset time. When user operation information is received and the earphone is inside the earphone case, a first command is executed to establish a connection with a preset terminal device. This process wakes up the earphone without adding a physical button to the earphone case, enabling automatic connection between the wireless earphone and the preset terminal device. Compared to existing technologies that require additional buttons and other related accessories on the earphone case for physical connection, this method is simpler and effectively reduces the probability of accidental triggering. Furthermore, it avoids adding buttons and other accessories to the earphone case, reducing costs and resulting in a more complete and aesthetically pleasing earphone case.

[0071] Please see Figure 7 , Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the earphone provided in the first embodiment of this application; in this embodiment, an earphone 40 is provided, which may include an activation module 41, an operation module 42 and a connection module 43.

[0072] The activation module 41 is used to receive an activation command and exit the sleep state based on the activation command; the activation command is issued by the headphone case after the cover is opened.

[0073] The operation module 42 is used to monitor whether it receives user operation information within a first preset time period. The first preset time period can be selected according to actual needs; preferably, it ranges from 10 seconds to 300 seconds. In actual use, the user can interact with the device by operating the operation module 42 on the earphone. Specifically, the operation module 42 on the earphone can be exposed outside the earphone case, allowing the user to operate it directly without removing the earphone from the case, making the operation process simple and convenient. The operation module 42 can be pressure-sensitive, touch-sensitive, or a physical button.

[0074] In one embodiment, the earphone 40 may further include a detection module for detecting whether the earphone is located inside the earphone case. Specifically, the detection module may be a Hall sensor, a through-beam or reflective light sensor, or a micro-trigger switch, etc. For example, when the detection module is a Hall sensor, the Hall sensor can work with a magnet disposed on the earphone case to detect whether the relative position between the earphone and the charging case has changed, thereby determining whether the earphone is located inside the earphone case.

[0075] The connection module 43 is used to execute a first instruction to establish a connection with a preset terminal device when it receives user operation information and the earphone is in the earphone case; specifically, the connection module 43 can be used to send a reconnection request to the preset terminal device to perform pairing, reconnection and other operations with the preset terminal device.

[0076] In one specific embodiment, see Figure 8a , Figure 8a This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the earphone provided in the second embodiment of this application; the earphone 40 may further include a display module 44, which is used to display the execution information of the first instruction when the connection module 43 executes the first instruction; wherein, the execution information of the first instruction may include any one of pairing, connection successful and connection failed.

[0077] In another specific embodiment, see Figure 8b , Figure 8b This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the earphone provided in the third embodiment of this application; the earphone 40 may further include an instruction generation module 44', which is used to generate and send a third instruction to the earphone box based on the execution information of the first instruction within a second preset time, so that the display module 54 of the earphone box (see below) Figure 10 The execution information of the first instruction is displayed based on the third instruction.

[0078] Please see Figure 9 , Figure 9 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the earphone case provided in the fourth embodiment of this application; in this embodiment, an earphone case 50 is provided, which specifically includes a first monitoring module 51 and a signal transmission module 52.

[0079] The first monitoring module 51 is used to monitor the opening signal of the cover. Specifically, the specific implementation scheme for the first monitoring module 51 to monitor the opening signal of the cover can be found in the prior art regarding the monitoring scheme for opening the cover, and can achieve the same or similar technical effects, so it will not be described again here.

[0080] The signal transmitting module 52 is used to generate and send an activation command based on the power-on signal, so that the headphones exit the sleep state based on the activation command.

[0081] In one embodiment, after the signal transmitting module 52 sends an activation command, the earphone box directly enters a sleep state to save energy.

[0082] In another embodiment, see Figure 10 , Figure 10 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the headphone case provided in the fifth embodiment of this application; the headphone case 50 also includes a second monitoring module 53 and a display module 54.

[0083] The second monitoring module 53 is used to monitor whether a third instruction is received within a second preset time period. The third instruction is generated and issued by the headphone's instruction generation module based on the execution information of the first instruction. In a specific embodiment, if the second monitoring module 53 receives the third instruction within the second preset time period, the display module 54 displays the execution information of the first instruction based on the third instruction. The execution information includes pairing, connection successful, and connection failed. If the second monitoring module 53 does not receive the third instruction within the second preset time period, it determines that there is currently no user operation or the headphone has been removed from the headphone case, and the headphone case enters a sleep state.

[0084] In one embodiment, the earphone case 50 may further include a detection module, which is used to detect whether the earphone is located inside the earphone case, and generate and send a fourth command to the earphone when the earphone is detected to be inside the earphone case; and generate and send a fifth command to the earphone when the earphone is detected to be outside the earphone case; specifically, the detection module may be a Hall sensor, a through-beam or reflective light sensor, or a micro-trigger switch, etc.; for example, when the detection module is a Hall sensor, the Hall sensor can work with a magnet set on the earphone to detect whether the relative position between the earphone and the charging case has changed, thereby determining whether the earphone is located inside the earphone case.
