DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. The words "connect", "install", "fix" and the like described below, unless otherwise specified, can refer to direct connection, installation, fixation, or indirect connection, installation, fixation, that is, the intervention of a third party material is allowed. The terms "first", "second", "third" and the like can be used herein to describe various elements, but these elements are not limited by these terms. These terms are only used to distinguish the objects being described and do not have any order or technical meaning.

[0028] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4As shown in the drawings, the earphone storage box 100 comprises a support 1, a storage 2 for storing earphones 50, a driving member 3 for connecting the storage 2 and the support 1 rotatably, and a charging module 4 arranged in the storage 2.

[0029] The support 1 comprises a top wall 11, a bottom wall 12 arranged oppositely to the top wall 11, and two side walls 13 connected between the top wall 11 and the bottom wall 12, and the top wall 11, the bottom wall 12 and the two side walls 13 surround a receiving cavity 10 for accommodating the storage 2 and the driving member 3.

[0030] In the embodiment disclosed by the present application, the storage 2 comprises a first storage 21 for storing a first earphone and a second storage 22 for storing a second earphone, and the first storage 21 and the second storage 22 are arranged on the two sides of the driving member 3 respectively. The first storage 21 and the second storage 22 each comprise a main body 25, a storage groove 26 recessed downward from the top end of the main body 25 and penetrating the main body 25 outwardly, a receiving groove 27 extended upward from the bottom wall of the main body 25, and a bottom plate 28 for closing the opening of the receiving groove 27. The storage groove 26 is used for accommodating the earphone 50, and the receiving groove 27 is used for accommodating the charging module 4.

[0031] When the earphone storage box 100 is in the closed state, the opening of the storage groove 26 is covered by the top wall 11 and the side wall 13 of the support 1, so that the storage groove 26 becomes a closed storage space for accommodating the earphone 50; when the earphone storage box 100 is in the open state, the opening of the storage groove 26 is exposed outside the support 1, so that the user can take and place the earphone 50 through the opening of the storage groove 26.

[0032] The charging module 4 comprises a circuit board 41, a battery 42 capable of charging and discharging, a charging interface 43 electrically connected to an external power supply and the battery 42, and a discharging interface 44 electrically connected to the earphone 50 and the battery 42. As shown in the drawings, Figure 2 In the embodiment disclosed by the present application, the charging module 4 comprises a first charging module 45 for charging the first earphone and a second charging module 46 for charging the second earphone, and the first charging module 45 and the second charging module 46 are arranged identically and arranged in the receiving groove 27 of the first storage 21 and the second storage 22 respectively.

[0033] After the first earphone and the second earphone are placed in the receiving groove 27 of the first storage 21 and the second storage 22 respectively, the first charging module 45 and the second charging module 46 charge the first earphone and the second earphone respectively. Since two charging modules 45, 46 are arranged to charge the first earphone and the second earphone respectively, the charging efficiency can be improved, and the charging module 45, 46 with insufficient storage capacity can be charged individually according to the storage capacity of the battery 42. When charging one earphone, it does not affect the taking and placing of the other earphone.

[0034] In other embodiments, the first earphone and the second earphone can share one charging module 4 for charging, that is, only one charging module 4 is provided, which can simultaneously charge the first earphone located in the first receiving member 21 and the second earphone located in the second receiving member 22. Correspondingly, one of the first receiving member 21 and the second receiving member 22 is provided with a receiving groove 27 for accommodating the charging module 4. Compared with the structure in which two charging modules are separately provided to charge the first earphone and the second earphone, this structure is simpler and has lower manufacturing cost.

[0035] In combination with Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown in the drawings, the driving member 3 comprises a connecting shaft 31 fixedly connected with the support member 1, an operation part 32 rotationally connected with the connecting shaft 31, a driving part 33 fixedly connected with the operation part 32, a first driving rod 34 and a second driving rod 35 selectively driven by the driving part 33, a locking part 36 for locking the position of the driving part 33, and a biasing member 37 for biasing the driving part 33 towards the locking part 36. The locking part 36 is fixedly connected with the connecting shaft 31, and the first receiving member 21 and the second receiving member 22 are respectively provided with a first pivot hole 211 and a second pivot hole 221 for the connecting shaft 31 to pass through, so that the support member 1 and the first receiving member 21 and the second receiving member 22 are rotationally connected through the connecting shaft 31 and the first pivot hole 211 and the second pivot hole 221.

[0036] The first pivot hole 211 and the second pivot hole 221 are respectively provided with a first driving groove 212 and a second driving groove 222 for accommodating the first driving rod 34 and the second driving rod 35, and the first driving groove 212 and the second driving groove 222 are respectively communicated with the first pivot hole 211 and the second pivot hole 221. One end of the first driving rod 34 is driven by the driving part 33, and the other end is accommodated in the first driving groove 212. When the driving part 33 drives the first driving rod 34 to rotate, the first driving rod 34 drives the first receiving member 21 to rotate, so that the opening of the receiving groove 26 of the first receiving member 21 is exposed outside the support member 1, and at this time, the first receiving member 21 is in an open state. Similarly, one end of the second driving rod 35 is driven by the driving part 33, and the other end is accommodated in the second driving groove 222. When the driving part 33 drives the second driving rod 35 to rotate, the second driving rod 35 drives the second receiving member 222 to rotate, so that the opening of the receiving groove 26 of the first receiving member 222 is exposed outside the support member 1, and at this time, the second receiving member 22 is in an open state.

[0037] Specifically, in combination with Figures 6 to 8As shown, the driving part 33 comprises a base 331, a first driving end 332 and a second driving end 333 extending downwardly from the base 331, the first driving end 332 is used to drive the first driving rod 34, and the second driving end 333 is used to drive the second driving rod 35. The first driving end 332 and the second driving end 333 are arranged at an interval of 180° and protrude from the lower end surface of the base 331, so that a space is formed between the first driving end 332 and the second driving end 333.

[0038] When the operation part 32 is rotated clockwise, the operation part 32 drives the driving part 33 to rotate clockwise, when the driving part 33 rotates clockwise, the first driving end 332 drives the first driving rod 34 to rotate, and the first driving rod 34 drives the first receiving part 21 to rotate to open the first receiving part 21. Since the first driving end 332 and the second driving end 333 have the space therebetween, the driving part 33 will not drive the second driving rod 35 to rotate when the driving part 33 rotates clockwise, so that only the first receiving part 21 will be driven to open when the operation part 32 rotates clockwise, and the second receiving part 22 will still be in a closed state.

[0039] Similarly, when the operation part 32 is rotated counterclockwise, the operation part 32 drives the driving part 33 to rotate counterclockwise, when the driving part 33 rotates counterclockwise, the second driving end 333 drives the second driving rod 35 to rotate, and the second driving rod 35 drives the second receiving part 22 to rotate to open the second receiving part 22. Since the first driving end 332 and the second driving end 333 have the space therebetween, the driving part 33 will not drive the first driving rod 34 to rotate when the driving part 33 rotates counterclockwise, so that only the second receiving part 22 will be driven to open when the operation part 32 rotates counterclockwise, and the first receiving part 21 will still be in a closed state.

[0040] More specifically, the locking part 36 further has a limiting block 361 extending from the base 331 towards the driving part 33, and the upper surface of the locking part 36 towards the driving part 33 is an inclined surface gradually inclined upwardly from the limiting block 361 to both sides. In the process of driving the operation part 32 to rotate, the limiting block 361 can respectively abut against the first driving end 332 and the second driving end 333 to prevent the driving part 33 from rotating excessively. The driving part 33 further has a first blocking groove 337 and a second blocking groove 338 recessed upwardly from the base 331, in the process of rotating the operation part 32 to open the first receiving part 21 or the second receiving part 22, due to the biasing action of the biasing part 37 and the inclined surface of the upper surface of the locking part 36, the driving part 33 moves towards the locking part 36 while rotating, so that the first driving rod 34 and the second driving rod 34 are gradually accommodated into the first blocking groove 337 and the second blocking groove 338 respectively, so that when the operation part 32 is reversely rotated, the first driving rod 34 and the second driving rod 35 can drive the first receiving part 21 and the second receiving part 22 to move to a closed state.

[0041] In the embodiments disclosed in the present application, the biasing member 37 is a wave spring, and in other embodiments, the biasing member 37 can be any component having elastic deformation characteristics and capable of biasing the driving portion 33 toward the locking portion 35.

[0042] The earphone storage box 100 is used for storing the first earphone storage member 21 and the second earphone storage member 22, which are connected by the driving member 3, and the driving member 3 can separately drive the first earphone storage member 21 and the second earphone storage member 22 to rotate to open and close the earphone storage box, so that the earphone can be easily taken and the user experience is improved; the first earphone storage member 21 and the second earphone storage member 22 are respectively charged by independent charging modules 4, so that the charging efficiency can be improved.

[0043] The above embodiments are only used for describing the present application and not limiting the technical solutions described in the present application. The understanding of the specification should be based on the skilled in the art, for example, the directional description of "front", "rear", "left", "right", "up", "down" and the like. Although the present application has been described in detail with reference to the above embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the skilled in the art can still modify or equivalently replace the present application, and all technical solutions and improvements which do not deviate from the spirit and scope of the present application should be covered in the scope of the claims of the present application.
