[0030] The above drawings have shown clear embodiments of the present application, which will be described in more detail later. These drawings and text descriptions are not intended to limit the scope of the present application in any way, but to illustrate the concept of the present application to those skilled in the art by referring to specific embodiments. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0031] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the examples of the present invention more clear, the technical solution in the examples of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the examples of the present invention.

[0032] First, the terms involved in the present invention are explained:

[0033] Bone conduction sound generation: refers to the technology of transmitting sound signals directly to the auditory system of humans or other organisms through biological tissues such as skin tissue, muscle tissue, teeth, and bones in the form of vibration, without transmitting sound waves through the air, so that the auditory system can receive the vibration signals and perceive them as sound.

[0034] Among them, headphones made using bone conduction sound technology are usually called bone conduction headphones. Bone conduction headphones can convert electrical signals emitted by media playback devices into vibrations corresponding to sounds.

[0035] Air conduction sound generation: refers to the technology that sound signals are transmitted to the outer ear of a person or other creature in the form of sound waves in the air, causing the eardrum to vibrate, and then enter the cochlea through the ossicular chain and the oval window membrane, and are perceived as sound. Ordinary headphones use air conduction sound generation technology, that is, by building a micro speaker into the headphones, the electrical signals emitted by the media player are converted into sound waves.

[0036] With the development of electronic technology, in order to better enjoy music or movies and enhance the user's sense of presence, surround sound equipment is usually used, such as large audio equipment in movie theaters and home theaters. It can be seen that the existing surround sound equipment is large and difficult to move, so that users cannot enjoy the surround sound effect anytime and anywhere, and the user experience is poor.

[0037] The traditional stereo headphones that users can carry with them are ordinary headphones, including left and right channels, each channel has a built-in micro speaker, which converts two different electrical signals into sound waves and transmits them to the left and right ears of the user. However, the sounds that the human ear can distinguish come from far more than just two directions, that is, the stereo effect of traditional stereo headphones is not good.

[0038] In response to the above technical problems, the technical concept of the present invention is to provide a wearable integrated hearing system that integrates an inlet-type bone conduction sound-emitting device, a non-inlet-type bone conduction sound-emitting device, a speaker device and a control device, so that users can enjoy surround stereo effects anytime and anywhere, thereby improving user experience.

[0039] In a first aspect, the present invention provides an integrated hearing system. Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of an integrated hearing system provided as an example of the present invention is shown in FIG. Figure 1 As shown, the integrated hearing system includes:

[0040] The inlet bone conduction sound-generating device 11, the non-inlet bone conduction sound-generating device 12, the speaker 13 and the control device 14. The control device 14 communicates with the inlet bone conduction sound-generating device 11, the non-inlet bone conduction sound-generating device 12 and the speaker 13 respectively by wireless and / or wired means, and is used to determine the device to be played from the inlet bone conduction sound-generating device 11, the non-inlet bone conduction sound-generating device 12 and the speaker 13, and start the device to be played according to the relevant information of the sound source to be played. Optionally, the inlet bone conduction sound-generating device 11 can be a dental bone conduction earphone, the number of which is more than one and distributed at different positions of the teeth. The non-inlet bone conduction sound-generating device 12 can be an ordinary bone conduction earphone, the number of which is more than one and distributed at different positions such as the top of the human head and behind the ears. The speaker 13 can be an ordinary speaker earphone, that is, the ordinary earphone mentioned above, the number of which is one or two and distributed at the left and right ears of the human body. The control device 14 may be a dedicated control device, such as a central control machine, or a general device with control functions, such as a mobile terminal such as a mobile phone or a tablet computer.

[0041] In addition, it should be noted that the control device 14 stores various different sound sources internally, or an external interface is provided on the control device 14 for connecting to other external devices to play the sound sources on other external devices; wherein the external interface can be various forms of Universal Serial Bus (USB) interfaces, such as Type A (TYPE-A) interface, Type B (TYPE-B) interface, Type C (TYPE-C) interface, and can also be an external serial data (External Serial ATA, eSATA) interface, Secure Digital Memory Card (SD) interface, micro SD card (Trans-flash Card, TF) interface, audio interface, video interface, Wireless Fidelity (WiFi) interface, Bluetooth interface, network port, telephone port, broadcast antenna, etc. In this embodiment, the control device 14 is respectively connected wirelessly (such as Bluetooth, WiFi) or wired with the inlet bone conduction sound-emitting device 11, the non-inlet bone conduction sound-emitting device 12, and the speaker 13 to output a control instruction to at least one of the sound-emitting devices and determine at least one of the sound-emitting devices as the device to be played; then the control device 14 processes the internally stored sound source or the received external sound source, and divides it into multiple output signals corresponding to the inlet bone conduction sound-emitting device 11, the non-inlet bone conduction sound-emitting device 12 or the speaker 13, and controls the corresponding inlet bone conduction sound-emitting device 11, the non-inlet bone conduction sound-emitting device 12 or the speaker 13 to emit corresponding vibration or sound according to the channel or volume and other related information of each signal.

[0042] Optionally, the relevant information of the sound source to be played includes: channel information and / or volume information.

[0043] Specifically, the device to be played can be activated according to the channel information or volume information of the sound source. For example, the control device 14 divides the sound source into several channels of channel information, and drives the device to be played according to the channel information; or determines the device to be played according to the volume. For example, if the volume is high, the inlet bone conduction sound device 11 can be activated to make a sound, and if the volume is low, the speaker device 13 can be activated to make a sound.

[0044] For example, Figure 2 A schematic diagram of an integrated hearing system provided as an example of the present invention is shown in FIG. Figure 2As shown, the integrated hearing system includes a central control machine A1, ordinary bone conduction headphones A2 and A3, ordinary speaker headphones A4 and A5, and dental bone conduction headphones A6 and A7. The central control machine A1 is wirelessly connected to the ordinary bone conduction headphones A2 and A3, the ordinary speaker headphones A4 and A5, and the dental bone conduction headphones A6 and A7 respectively.

[0045] During use, if the central control machine A1 determines that all headphones are devices to be played, the central control machine A1 processes the internally stored audio signals and divides them into six electrical signals: left rear, right rear, left, right, left front, and right front; then the six electrical signals are wirelessly sent to ordinary bone conduction headphones A2 and A3, ordinary speaker headphones A4 and A5, and dental bone conduction headphones A6 and A7, respectively, to control the ordinary speaker headphones A4 and A5 to produce corresponding sounds, and to control the ordinary bone conduction headphones A2 and A3, and dental bone conduction headphones A6 and A7 to produce corresponding vibrations, thereby enabling the user to hear sounds or think that they have heard sounds through air conduction or bone conduction, ultimately forming a six-channel stereo effect.

[0046] If the central control machine A1 determines that the ordinary bone conduction earphone A2 and the ordinary speaker earphone A4 are the devices to be played, the central control machine A1 processes the internally stored audio signal, divides it into two signals and sends them to the ordinary bone conduction earphone A2 and the ordinary speaker earphone A4 respectively, forming a two-channel stereo effect.

[0047] It should be noted that other numbers of bone conduction headphones and ordinary speaker headphones may be determined as the devices to be played, and no further examples will be given here.

[0048] As an optional embodiment, the control device 14 is specifically used to determine and drive the device to be played from the inlet bone conduction sound-emitting device 11, the non-inlet bone conduction sound-emitting device 12 and the speaker device 13 according to the type of the sound source to be played.

[0049] In this embodiment, the device to be played can also be determined according to the type of the sound source. Specifically, the sound source can be divided into multiple types such as light music and rock music. When the user selects light music, a stereo effect may not be needed at this time. The control device 14 can control one of the sound-generating devices, such as ordinary loudspeaker headphones, as the device to be played and drive it to make sound according to the selected sound source type of light music; when the user selects rock music, a stereo effect is required at this time for better auditory effect. The control device 14 can control all the sound-generating devices as the devices to be played according to the selected sound source type of rock music and drive them to make sound.

[0050] It should be noted that determining which sound-generating devices are to be played and driven according to the type of sound source can be customized by the user or based on the experience of those skilled in the art, and the present invention does not limit this.

[0051] As an optional embodiment, the control device 14 is specifically used to determine and drive the device to be played from the entrance bone conduction sound device 11, the non-entry bone conduction sound device 12 and the speaker device 13 according to the position of the non-entry bone conduction sound device 12 attached to the human head and / or the position of the entrance bone conduction sound device 11 in the human mouth.

[0052] In this embodiment, the device to be played can also be determined based on the position of the non-entry bone conduction sound-generating device 12 attached to the human head, and / or the position of the entry bone conduction sound-generating device 11 in the human mouth. For example, when it is detected that the non-entry bone conduction sound-generating device 12 is not attached to the head, or is not in a preset position of the head (such as behind the ear, etc.), the entry bone conduction sound-generating device 11 and / or the speaker 13 can be determined as the device to be played, and driven to sound; if it is detected that the non-entry bone conduction sound-generating device 12 is attached to the back of the ear, the non-entry bone conduction sound-generating device 11 is determined as the device to be played, and driven to sound. For another example, when it is detected that the inlet-type bone conduction sound-generating device 11 is not in the oral cavity, or is not in a preset position in the oral cavity, such as at the back molars, the non-inlet-type bone conduction sound-generating device 12 and / or the speaker 13 can be determined as the device to be played, and driven to make sounds; if the inlet-type bone conduction sound-generating device 11 is located at the back molars, the inlet-type bone conduction sound-generating device 11 is determined as the device to be played, and driven to make sounds. For another example, if the non-inlet-type bone conduction sound-generating device 12 does not fit the head, and the inlet-type bone conduction sound-generating device 11 is not in the oral cavity, the speaker 13 is determined as the device to be played, and driven to make sounds.

[0053] It should be noted that which devices are determined as the devices to be played and driven according to the position of the non-entry bone conduction sound-emitting device 12 / or the entry bone conduction sound-emitting device 11 can be set according to user customization or according to the experience of technicians in this field, and the present invention does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0054] As an optional embodiment, the control device 14 is specifically used to determine and drive the device to be played from the inlet bone conduction sound device 11, the non-inlet bone conduction sound device 12 and the speaker device 13 according to the position of the non-inlet bone conduction sound device 12 against the human head, the position of the inlet bone conduction sound device 11 in the human mouth, and / or the type of user corresponding to the human body.

[0055] In this embodiment, in addition to determining the device to be played according to the position of the non-entry bone conduction sound-generating device 12 attached to the human head and the position of the entry bone conduction sound-generating device 11 in the human mouth, the user type corresponding to the human body is also taken into consideration. For example, the user type corresponding to the human body can be determined as an adult or a child by detecting the human head circumference. If it is determined to be an adult, all sound-generating devices can be controlled as devices to be played and driven to produce sound; if it is determined to be a child, because the child's cochlea may not be fully developed, in order to avoid the sound emitted by the speaker 13 causing damage to the child's cochlea, the non-entry bone conduction sound-generating device 12 and / or the entry bone conduction sound-generating device 11 can be determined as the device to be played and driven to produce sound.

[0056] It should be noted that which devices are determined as the devices to be played and driven according to the position of the non-entry bone conduction sound-emitting device 12 / or the entry bone conduction sound-emitting device 11 and the corresponding user type of the human body. It can be set according to user customization or according to the experience of technical personnel in this field, and the present invention does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0057] As an optional embodiment, the control device 14 is also used to sense the ambient sound around the human body, and increase or decrease the volume of the inlet-type bone conduction sound-emitting device 11, the non-inlet-type bone conduction sound-emitting device 12, and / or the speaker device 13 according to the ambient sound.

[0058] In this embodiment, the volume of the inlet bone conduction sound-generating device 11, the non-inlet bone conduction sound-generating device 12, and / or the speaker 13 can be controlled according to the ambient sound. Specifically, when it is detected that the ambient is noisy, the volume of the inlet bone conduction sound-generating device 11, the non-inlet bone conduction sound-generating device 12, and / or the speaker 13 can be increased; when the ambient is quiet, the volume of the inlet bone conduction sound-generating device 11, the non-inlet bone conduction sound-generating device 12, and / or the speaker 13 can be appropriately reduced.

[0059] As an optional embodiment, the inlet-type bone conduction sound-generating device 11 and / or the non-inlet-type bone conduction sound-generating device 12 is one of the following: an electromagnetic bone conduction device or a piezoelectric bone conduction sound-generating device.

[0060] As an optional embodiment, the control device 14 is a microphone. Specifically, when the control device 14 is a microphone, the microphone directly obtains the voice signal input by the user and controls the system, for example: the microphone receives the selected instruction input by the user and determines the device to be played from the inlet bone conduction sound device 11, the non-inlet bone conduction sound device 12 and the speaker 13; or, the microphone receives the play instruction input by the user and starts the device to be played; or the microphone receives the sound source processing instruction input by the user and controls the volume of the sound source, or switches the previous or next song of the sound source, etc.

[0061] The integrated hearing system provided by the embodiment of the present invention comprises an inlet-type bone conduction sound-generating device, a non-inlet-type bone conduction sound-generating device, a speaker device and a control device; wherein the control device communicates with the inlet-type bone conduction sound-generating device, the non-inlet-type bone conduction sound-generating device and the speaker device respectively by wireless and / or wired means, and is used to determine the device to be played from the inlet-type bone conduction sound-generating device, the non-inlet-type bone conduction sound-generating device and the speaker device, and start the device to be played according to the relevant information of the sound source to be played; that is, the embodiment of the present invention integrates the inlet-type bone conduction sound-generating device, the non-inlet-type bone conduction sound-generating device and the speaker device into one, so as to simply and conveniently realize the enjoyment of surround sound effects anytime and anywhere, thereby improving the user experience.

[0062] In combination with the above embodiments, Figure 3 A schematic diagram of another integrated hearing system provided as an example of the present invention is shown in FIG. Figure 3 As shown, the integrated hearing system includes:

[0063] An inlet bone conduction sound-generating device 11, a non-inlet bone conduction sound-generating device 12, a speaker 13, a control device 14 and a microphone 15; wherein the control device 14 communicates with the inlet bone conduction sound-generating device 11, the non-inlet bone conduction sound-generating device 12 and the speaker 13 respectively by wireless and / or wired means, and is used to determine a device to be played from the inlet bone conduction sound-generating device 11, the non-inlet bone conduction sound-generating device 12 and the speaker 13, and start the device to be played according to the sound source to be played; the control device 14 is also used to obtain a voice signal through the microphone 15, and determine the device to be played from the inlet bone conduction sound-generating device 11, the non-inlet bone conduction sound-generating device 12 and the speaker 13 according to the voice signal; or, the control device 14 is also used to obtain a voice signal through the microphone 15, and start the device to be played according to the voice signal and relevant information of the sound source to be played.

[0064] The implementation methods of the inlet-type bone conduction sound-generating device 11, the non-inlet-type bone conduction sound-generating device 12, the speaker device 13 and the control device 14 in this embodiment are similar to those in the aforementioned embodiments and will not be described in detail here.

[0065] Different from the above-mentioned embodiment, in addition to the control device 14, the present embodiment also includes a microphone 15, that is, the microphone 15 is only used to obtain the user's voice signal, and does not have a control function, that is, the microphone 15 will transmit the obtained voice signal to the control device 14, and the control device 14 controls the system according to the voice signal. In this embodiment, the control device 14 is also used to obtain the voice signal through the microphone 15, and determine the device to be played from the inlet bone conduction sound device 11, the non-inlet bone conduction sound device 12 and the speaker device 13 according to the voice signal; or, the control device 14 is also used to obtain the voice signal through the microphone 15, and start the device to be played according to the voice signal and the relevant information of the sound source to be played. Specifically, the microphone 15 is connected to the control device 14 wirelessly and / or wiredly, the microphone 15 obtains the voice operation instructions input by the user, and transmits the obtained voice operation instructions to the control device 14, and the control device 14 performs corresponding operations according to the voice operation instructions to determine the device to be played from the inlet bone conduction sound-emitting device 11, the non-inlet bone conduction sound-emitting device 12 and the speaker device 13; or, starts the device to be played.

[0066] Optionally, the microphone 15 can be independent of the inlet-type bone conduction sound-generating device 11, the non-inlet-type bone conduction sound-generating device 12 and the speaker 13, or can be integrated with one of the sound-generating devices.

[0067] In addition, the provision of the microphone 15 can also enable the integrated hearing system to realize the functions of a telephone or an intercom.

[0068] For example, Figure 4 A schematic diagram of another integrated hearing system provided as an example of the present invention is shown in FIG. Figure 4 As shown, the integrated hearing system includes a central control unit B1, a common speaker earphone B2, a dental bone conduction earphone B3, a microphone B4, a common bone conduction earphone ( Figure 4 Not shown), wherein the central control machine A1 is wirelessly connected to the dental bone conduction headset B3, and is wiredly connected to the ordinary speaker headset B2 and the microphone B4, and the microphone B4 and the ordinary speaker headset B2 are integrated.

[0069] During use, the user can input instructions to the central control machine B1 through the microphone B4 to determine the device to be played. If it is determined that the ordinary speaker headphones B2 and the dental bone conduction headphones B3 are both the devices to be played, the central control machine B1 processes the internally stored audio signals and divides them into left and right electrical signals; then it is sent to the ordinary speaker headphones B2 and the dental bone conduction headphones B3 respectively through an audio interface and a Bluetooth interface, generating corresponding sounds or vibrations, thereby enabling people to hear sounds or think they have heard sounds through air conduction or bone conduction, forming a two-channel stereo effect.

[0070] In addition, when using Figure 4 In the embodiment shown, only one common speaker earphone B2 is provided, so that the user can hear the stereo effect while the other ear can take into account the surrounding environment, thereby achieving the goal of enjoying music while taking into account safety.

[0071] On the basis of the foregoing embodiment, the control device is also used to obtain a voice signal through a microphone, and determine the device to be played from the inlet bone conduction sound-emitting device, the non-inlet bone conduction sound-emitting device and the speaker device according to the voice signal; or, the control device is also used to obtain a voice signal through a microphone, and start the device to be played according to the voice signal and relevant information of the sound source to be played; different operations are performed according to user instructions, further improving the user experience.

[0072] In a second aspect, the present invention provides an integrated hearing control method, which is applied to a control device. Figure 5 A schematic diagram of a flow chart of an integrated hearing control method provided by the present invention, such as Figure 5 As shown, the integrated hearing control method includes:

[0073] Step 101: determine a device to be played from among an inlet-type bone conduction sound-emitting device, a non-inlet-type bone conduction sound-emitting device and a speaker device.

[0074] Step 102: start the device to be played according to the relevant information of the sound source to be played.
