[0030] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0031] like Figures 1-7As shown, this embodiment provides a wireless earphone case, including a case body, a power supply unit 500, a storage module, and a plug module 300. The case body has an earphone receiving slot for accommodating earphone bodies 900. The power supply unit 500 is located inside the case body and is used to supply power to the earphone bodies 900 located in the earphone receiving slot. The storage module is located inside the case body and is used to store data. The plug module 300 is movably installed on the case body and includes a connector plug 310. The connector plug 310 can be selectively exposed outside the case body. The power supply unit 500 can be electrically connected to an external charging device through the connector plug 310, and the storage module can be communicatively connected to an external signal device through the connector plug 310.

[0032] This wireless earphone case, through the connection plug 310, enables electrical connection between the power supply unit 500 and an external charging device, as well as communication connection between the storage module and an external signal device. This allows for quick charging of the wireless earphone case and integrates the wireless earphone case with the USB flash drive module. The design of using a single connection plug 310 to perform all these functions simplifies the structure of the wireless earphone case, expands its functionality, and improves its reusability. Furthermore, the design of selectively exposing the connection plug 310 within the case body allows it to be stored inside the case body when not in use. These improvements effectively store the connection plug 310, reducing the risk of damage to it, minimizing the space occupied by the wireless earphone case, and reducing the frequency of maintenance.

[0033] In this embodiment, the box body is provided with a sliding groove 103, and the plug module 300 is slidably disposed in the sliding groove 103. The plug module 300 also includes a plug slider 320. The two ends of the connecting plug 310 are a connecting end and a working end, respectively. The plug slider 320 is fixed to the connecting end, passes through the sliding groove 103 and extends outside the box body, and the working end can extend out of the box body or be stored inside the box body. With the above design, the operator can drive the connecting plug 310 to slide by driving the plug slider 320, thereby selectively extending the working end out of the box body or storing it in the sliding groove 103. The above structure is simple and reliable, the connection is stable and occupies little space, and it can accurately complete the action of selectively exposing the working end to the box body.

[0034] Furthermore, the plug slider 320 can move the connector plug 310 between a first position and a second position. When the connector plug 310 is in the first position, the working end extends out of the box body; when the connector plug 310 is in the second position, the working end is retracted into the box body. This design allows the plug slider 320 to plan the movement trajectory of the plug module 300 by setting the first and second positions, reducing the risk of positional deviation of the plug module 300 and improving the working stability of the wireless earphone box.

[0035] Preferably, a limiting piece 130 is fixedly connected to the wall of the sliding groove 103, and two limiting grooves 311 are recessed on the side of the connector 310. When the connector 310 is in the first position, the limiting piece 130 engages with one limiting groove 311; when the connector 310 is in the second position, the limiting piece 130 engages with the other limiting groove 311. Specifically, the limiting piece 130 has elastic recovery capability. By utilizing the cooperation between the limiting piece 130 and the limiting grooves 311, the sliding boundary of the connector module 300 can be defined, thereby determining the movement trajectory of the connector module 300. This further reduces the risk of positional displacement of the connector module 300 and lowers the frequency of maintenance of the wireless headphone box.

[0036] In this embodiment, the sliding groove 103 has a clearance hole 102 in its groove wall, through which the plug slider 320 passes. This structural improvement allows the plug slider 320 to smoothly pass through the sliding groove 103 and extend beyond the box body, thus facilitating the operator's operation of the plug slider 320, reducing the space occupied by the plug module 300, and further simplifying the structure of the wireless earphone box.

[0037] Specifically, the clearance hole 102 is an elongated hole. When the connector 310 is in the first position, the connector slider 320 abuts against one end of the clearance hole 102; when the connector 310 is in the second position, the connector slider 320 abuts against the other end of the clearance hole 102.

[0038] Furthermore, the plug slider 320 has a slider body 321 at one end and a slider buckle 322 at the other end. The slider body 321 is located outside the box body, and a positioning groove 312 is opened at the connecting end. The slider buckle 322 is matched and engaged in the positioning groove 312. The above design ensures that the slider buckle 322 can match and engage with the positioning groove 312, ensuring the connection stability between the plug slider 320 and the connecting plug 310, reducing the risk of accidental damage to the plug module 300, and further reducing the maintenance frequency of the wireless earphone box.

[0039] Furthermore, a positioning groove 312 is formed on the inner wall of the connecting end, and the bottom of the positioning groove 312 is provided with a through hole that passes through the connecting end, through which the plug slider 320 passes. The design of the plug slider 320 passing through the through hole adjusts the connection method between the plug slider 320 and the connecting plug 310, greatly increasing the difficulty of the plug slider 320 detaching from the connecting plug 310, thereby further improving the connection stability between the plug slider 320 and the connecting plug 310.

[0040] For example, the slider body 321 fits against the outer surface of the case body and always blocks the clearance hole 102. This design significantly reduces the risk of impurities from the external environment entering the case body through the clearance hole 102, improves the cleanliness of the case body, and reduces the risk of damage to the wireless earphone case.

[0041] In this embodiment, the storage module includes a storage motherboard 400 and a connection unit 410. The storage motherboard 400 is communicatively connected to the connection plug 310 through the connection unit 410, and the storage motherboard 400 is used to store data.

[0042] For example, the power supply unit 500 is a battery.

[0043] In this embodiment, the box body includes an inner liner shell 120 and an outer shell 100 sleeved on the inner liner shell 120. The inner liner shell 120 and the outer shell 100 form a receiving cavity, which houses the power supply unit 500 and the storage module. The split design of the box body is simple and reliable, reducing the manufacturing difficulty of the box body, improving the processing efficiency of the receiving cavity, reducing the production cost of the box body, and simplifying the structure of the wireless earphone box.

[0044] In this embodiment, the box body has two oppositely arranged mounting surfaces, each mounting surface is recessed with an earphone receiving slot, and the two earphone receiving slots on the two mounting surfaces are arranged alternately, and the earphone receiving slot can accommodate an earphone body 900; the wireless earphone box also includes two box covers 200, the box covers 200 are hinged to the box body, and the box covers 200 can rotate relative to the box body to cover or expose the opening of the earphone receiving slot.

[0045] This wireless earphone case utilizes a design with two opposing mounting surfaces and staggered earphone slots to optimize the storage position of the earphone body 900 within the earphone slots. This simplifies the case's structure and reduces its space occupation. The case lid 200 selectively covers the earphone slots, effectively protecting the earphone body 900 and significantly reducing the risk of damage. By providing an earphone slot and corresponding lid 200 at each end of the case, individual access to each earphone body 900 is convenient. Furthermore, the internal component stacking is optimized, simplifying the case's structure. This allows for a compact arrangement of the two earphone bodies 900, reducing the case's size and weight, and making it easier for users to handle and carry.

[0046] Furthermore, the main body of the case is a cuboid, and the two earphone slots are symmetrical about the center of the main body. This symmetrical design of the two earphone slots about the center of the main body further optimizes the structure of the main body, which helps to further stack the internal components of the wireless earphone case, thus providing more space for layout optimization and lightweight design of the wireless earphone case.

[0047] Furthermore, the case body has a recessed lanyard groove 101, and a lanyard post 110 is fixedly connected within the lanyard groove 101. The lanyard post 110 divides the opening of the lanyard groove 101 into two connecting openings. The lanyard post 110 provides the case body with a lanyard groove 101 having two connected openings. This layout adds lanyard holes to the outer surface of the case body, allowing users to directly hang the wireless earphone case on their backpacks or mobile phones using lanyard accessories, eliminating the need for a protective case to achieve the lanyard function. This facilitates the carrying of the wireless earphone case and reduces the risk of users forgetting their wireless earphone case.

[0048] Furthermore, the four sides of the case body, excluding the two mounting surfaces, are all fixed surfaces. The lanyard groove 101 is located on two adjacent fixed surfaces, and the orientation of the two connecting openings is the same as the orientation of the corresponding two fixed surfaces. This design adjusts the position of the lanyard groove 101, reduces the processing difficulty of the lanyard groove 101, optimizes the stress on the wireless earphone case, reduces the risk of case body damage, lanyard breakage, and lanyard post 110 detachment, and ensures that the wireless earphone case can be stably connected to the lanyard for a long time.

[0049] In this embodiment, the cover 200 has an outer cover surface and an inner cover surface, which are arranged opposite to each other. The inner cover surface has a recessed cover groove. When the cover 200 closes the opening of the earphone receiving slot, the cover groove communicates with the earphone receiving slot to form an earphone receiving cavity. With this design, the earphone receiving cavity provides space for the earphone body 900. Therefore, the arrangement of the earphone body 900 can be optimized by adjusting the dimensions of the cover groove and the earphone receiving slot, thereby further simplifying the layout of the wireless earphone case and reducing its size and weight.

[0050] Furthermore, the inner cover surface is also provided with a pivot groove that connects to the cover groove. A pivot shaft 210 is installed in the pivot groove, and the case body is rotatably connected to the case cover 200 through the pivot shaft 210. The pivot shaft 210 is located inside the pivot groove, which not only improves the aesthetics of the wireless earphone case, but also enhances the protection of the pivot shaft 210, ensures smooth rotation between the case cover 200 and the case body, and extends the service life. The above design is simple and reliable, has low production cost, high operational stability, and occupies little space. It accurately realizes the hinge between the case cover 200 and the case body, ensuring that the rotation of the case cover 200 relative to the case body around the axis of the pivot shaft 210 can be completed smoothly and effectively.

[0051] Furthermore, an elastic element 220 is fitted onto the rotating shaft 210. The elastic element 220 is used to drive the cover 200 to rotate away from the mounting surface. Specifically, the elastic element 220 is a torsion spring. The setting of the elastic element 220 allows the cover 200 to be driven to a position away from the mounting surface, achieving accurate positioning of the cover 200. This helps to plan the working state of the cover 200. The above design facilitates the user's access to the earphone body 900 located in the earphone receiving slot and greatly reduces the impact of the cover 200 on the user's movements.

[0052] For example, the end of the case cover 200 away from the rotation shaft 210 is provided with a first suction member, and the mounting surface is provided with a second suction member. When the case cover 200 seals the opening of the earphone receiving slot, the first suction member and the second suction member attract each other. Specifically, both the first and second suction members are magnets and attract each other magnetically. The arrangement of the first and second suction members allows the case cover 200 to be positioned so that it seals the opening of the earphone receiving slot, reducing the risk of the earphone receiving cavity accidentally connecting to the external environment and improving the protective capability of the case cover 200 for the earphone body 900.

[0053] In this embodiment, one outer cover has a first identifier, and the other outer cover has a second identifier. Specifically, the first identifier is the letter "L", and the second identifier is the letter "R". The first and second identifiers facilitate the user's differentiation between the earphone bodies 900 stored in the two earphone compartments. This design reduces the possibility of the user picking up the wrong earphone body 900, improves the efficiency of the user in retrieving the earphone body 900, and makes the interaction between the user and the wireless earphone case easier and more efficient.

[0054] Obviously, the above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively describe all embodiments here. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the scope of protection of the claims of the present invention.
