The first magnetic ring is suspended in the connecting hole under the magnetic force of the second magnetic ring. The length of the second magnetic ring is greater than that of the first magnetic ring. The end of the second magnetic ring close to the fixed shaft is flush with the first magnetic ring.

[0011] As a further improvement of the present application, a supporting plate is installed in the receiving cavity perpendicularly to the positioning plate.

[0016] As a further improvement of the present application, the bone conduction earphone converts external sound into corresponding vibration information to feed back to the brain.

[0017] A sound production communication method is realized based on any of the above-mentioned sound production communication auxiliary sound production communication devices, comprising the following steps:

[0018] S1, detecting the vocal cord vibration information of the larynx of the user when producing sound through the electronic throat member;

[0019] S2, transmitting the detected vocal cord vibration information to the bone conduction earphone;

[0020] S3, the user judges whether the vocal cord vibration information is correct through the mechanical vibration of the bone conduction earphone;

[0021] S4, when the user judges that the vocal cord vibration information is correct through the mechanical vibration of the bone conduction earphone, the vocal cord vibration information is further transmitted to the processing system;

[0022] S5, the processing system converts the vocal cord vibration information into a voice signal and transmits it to the sound production device, and the sound production device produces sound;

[0023] S6, external sound is transmitted to the bone conduction earphone.

[0024] Compared with the prior art, the present application has the following advantages:

[0025] Firstly, through the setting of the bone conduction earphone, when the voice recognition device senses the vocal cord vibration of the user, the bone conduction earphone converts the vocal cord vibration information recognized by the voice recognition device into mechanical vibration for the user to judge the accuracy of voice recognition. When the user receives the mechanical vibration of the bone conduction earphone and confirms that the information recognized by the vocal cord vibration is correct, the vocal cord vibration information is transmitted to the processing system, and the processing system converts the vocal cord vibration information into voice and outputs the voice through the sound emitting device. Compared with the prior art, which directly converts the vocal cord vibration of the user into voice output after recognizing the vocal cord vibration, the bone conduction earphone is added, and the user confirms that the vocal cord vibration is correct through the mechanical vibration converted by the bone conduction earphone before converting it into voice output. This effectively avoids the situation that hearing-impaired people cannot confirm whether the voice they emit is correct, and effectively improves the quality of life and communication of the user.

[0026] Then, through the structural improvement of the electronic throat, the transmission sleeve passes through the positioning block through the connecting hole, and the transmission sleeve is suspended in the connecting hole through the first magnetic ring fixed in the connecting hole and the second magnetic ring fixed in the transmission sleeve. The periphery of the vibration guide film abuts in the stepped ring groove, and the center is fixed with the fixed shaft, and there is no contact between the transmission sleeve and the fixed shaft. Therefore, when the transmission sleeve contacts the user's vocal cord and moves in the connecting hole due to the vibration of the vocal cord, the transmission sleeve is in a suspended state due to the magnetic force of the first magnetic ring and the second magnetic ring. Therefore, the vibration guide film can only receive the displacement vibration of the transmission sleeve, and will not be affected by the friction caused by the contact between the transmission sleeve and other components, effectively improving the accuracy of the vocal cord vibration frequency detection and reception of the communication device, so as to improve the correctness of the conversion of the voice expression.

[0027] Finally, the bone conduction earphone can confirm the voice information recognized by the electronic throat component, and can also receive external sound and convert it into mechanical vibration and feedback to the user's brain. For hearing-impaired patients, the basic function of communication and sound emission is combined with the function of a hearing aid, further improving the user's experience.

[0034] The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings, but it should be noted that these embodiments are not a limitation on the present application, and equivalent transformations or substitutions of function, method, or structure made by those skilled in the art based on these embodiments are within the scope of the present application.

[0035] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 In one embodiment of the sound output communication auxiliary sounding communication device disclosed in the present application, compared with the communication auxiliary sounding communication device in the prior art, it comprises a voice recognition device and a bone conduction earphone 2 (as shown in Figure 5 The voice recognition device (not labeled) comprises a support ring 13, a processing system 11, an electronic throat member 14, and a sounding device 12. The sound output communication auxiliary sounding communication device is worn on the neck of the user through the support ring 13, wherein the electronic throat member 14 is directly opposite the laryngeal prominence of the user for sensing the vibration of the vocal cords, and then the vibration information of the vocal cords is transmitted to the bone conduction earphone. The bone conduction earphone converts the vibration information of the vocal cords into mechanical vibration for the hearing-impaired user to identify whether the vibration information of the vocal cords recognized by the electronic throat member 14 is consistent with the meaning that the user wants to express. When the user determines that the expression content is consistent with the content that the user actually wants to express, and there is no recognition error, the vibration information of the vocal cords is then transmitted to the processing system 11 to convert the vibration information of the vocal cords into a voice signal and finally output by the sounding device 12. Compared with the way of directly converting the sensed vibration information of the vocal cords into a voice output in the prior art, the bone conduction earphone 2 is added, so that the user determines whether the recognized vibration information of the vocal cords is consistent with the content that the user wants to express through mechanical vibration before the vibration information of the vocal cords is converted into a voice signal. When it is confirmed that the recognition is correct, it is then converted into a voice output, effectively avoiding the situation that the hearing-impaired user cannot normally communicate and exchange with others due to the error of the voice information caused by the hearing-impaired user's inability to know the voice information.

[0036] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 In the present embodiment, the sound output communication auxiliary sounding communication device (hereinafter referred to as the communication device) comprises a voice recognition device and a bone conduction earphone 2 (as shown in Figure 5As shown, the following will not be described in detail), voice recognition device for identifying the user vocal cord vibration and converted into voice output, bone conduction earphone 2 will be converted into mechanical vibration for the user to determine the accuracy of voice recognition information of vocal cord vibration identified by the bone conduction earphone 2 and voice recognition device 2 electrical connection; voice recognition device includes support ring 13, processing system 11, electronic throat components 14 and sound device 12, support ring 13 is worn on the user's neck, electronic throat components 14 for identifying vocal cord vibration and vocal cord vibration information transmission to bone conduction earphone 2, the user through the bone conduction earphone 2 feel the mechanical vibration without error after the vocal cord vibration information transmission to processing system 11, processing system 11 will be converted into voice and vocal cord vibration information through the sound device 12 voice. Through the support ring 13 will be worn in the user's neck, through the electronic throat components 14 to receive the vibration of vocal cord, bone conduction earphone 2 will be converted into mechanical vibration that hearing impaired users can perceive the vocal cord vibration information received by the electronic throat components 14, at this time when the user through the bone conduction earphone 2 know the vocal cord vibration information is wrong, do not carry out the subsequent vocal cord vibration information into voice signal and through the sound device 12 step to avoid the user and others to communicate due to unable to know the converted voice information is correct or not and others to communicate the possibility of misunderstanding. When the user through the bone conduction earphone 2 to confirm the vocal cord vibration information identified by the electronic throat components 14 is correct, the vocal cord vibration information transmission to processing system 11 and converted into voice signal, transmission to sound device 12. In addition, the bone conduction earphone 2 can also be converted into corresponding mechanical vibration to feedback to the brain, the bone conduction earphone 2 installed receiver (not shown), therefore, the bone conduction earphone 2 in addition to the user's vocal cord vibration information into mechanical vibration feedback to the user, but also can receive external such as alarm or prompt sound, play the effect of hearing aid, further improve the overall use of the communication equipment.

[0037] Reference Figures 2 to 4As shown, the support ring 13 is provided with a receiving cavity 131, and the electronic throat member 14 is arranged in the receiving cavity 131. The electronic throat member 14 comprises a transmission sleeve 141, a vibration guide film 142, and a positioning seat 143. The positioning seat 143 comprises a positioning block 1431 and two positioning plates 1432 which are vertically fixed to the positioning block 1431 and clamped to the top surface and the bottom surface of the support ring 13. The positioning block 1431 is connected to one side of the support ring 13 and is provided with a connecting hole 1433. One end of the transmission sleeve 141 is located in the receiving cavity 131, and the other end passes through the side wall of the receiving cavity 131 and then passes through the connecting hole 1433 to be attached to the neck. A transmission groove (not shown) is formed in the end of the transmission sleeve 141 away from the connecting hole 1433, and a fixed shaft 1412 is inserted and fixed in the transmission groove. The fixed shaft 1412 passes out of the side wall of the receiving cavity 131 away from the positioning block 1431, and is in sliding fit with the transmission groove. A stepped ring groove 1413 is formed at the bottom of the transmission groove, and the vibration guide film 142 is clamped at the stepped ring groove 1413. The fixed shaft 1412 passes through and is fixed at the center of the vibration guide film 142.

[0038] When the alternating current device is worn, the support ring 13 is worn on the neck of the user, and the electronic throat member 14 is opposite to the laryngeal prominence of the user. The transmission sleeve 141 is abutted to the laryngeal prominence on the side of the connecting hole 1433. When the vocal cords of the user vibrate, the transmission sleeve 141 abutted to the laryngeal prominence moves axially in the connecting hole 1433. The transmission sleeve 141 moves back and forth along the axial direction in the connecting hole 1433 once for each vibration of the vocal cords. Therefore, the vibration amplitude of the transmission sleeve 141 in the connecting hole 1433 is consistent with the vibration amplitude of the vocal cords. The edge of the vibration guide film 142 clamped in the stepped ring groove 1413 vibrates with the transmission sleeve 141 at the same amplitude as the vibration of the vocal cords. The piezoelectric sheet (not shown) is arranged in the vibration guide film 142, and the vibration guide film 142 is electrically connected to the processing system 11 and the bone conduction earphone 2 through the piezoelectric sheet (not shown). Therefore, when the vibration guide film 142 vibrates with the transmission sleeve 141 at the same amplitude as the vocal cords, the vibration guide film 142 can transmit the vibration information of the vocal cords to the bone conduction earphone 2 and the processing system 11.

[0039] Referring to Figures 2 to 4As shown, the hole wall of the connecting hole 1433 covers the first magnetic ring 1434, the transmission sleeve 141 covers the second magnetic ring 1414 around the circumference of the side wall, the first magnetic ring 1434 is suspended in the connecting hole 1433 under the magnetic force of the second magnetic ring 1414, the length of the second magnetic ring 1414 is greater than the length of the first magnetic ring 1434, and the second magnetic ring 1414 is flush with the first magnetic ring 1434 near one end of the fixed shaft 1412. The support plate 132 is installed in the accommodating cavity 131 perpendicularly to the positioning plate 1432, and the fixed shaft 1412 passes through the support plate 132 at the end outside the conducting groove (not shown) and then passes out of the side wall of the accommodating cavity 131. The sound insulation ring groove 1415 is opened in the transmission sleeve 141 around the conducting groove, and the sound insulation cotton 1416 is installed in the sound insulation ring groove 1415. The inner diameter of the sound insulation ring groove 1415 is greater than the groove diameter of the conducting groove.

[0040] The magnetic poles of the first magnetic ring 1434 and the second magnetic ring 1414 are the same, so the same magnetic force is generated between the first magnetic ring 1434 and the second magnetic ring 1414, causing the transmission sleeve 141 and the connecting hole 1433 to generate a repulsive force. At the same time, the diameter of the transmission sleeve 141 is smaller than the hole diameter of the connecting hole 1433, so the transmission sleeve 141 can be suspended in the connecting hole 1433. Therefore, during the vibration of the transmission sleeve 141 with the user's vocal cords, the transmission sleeve 141 does not come into contact with the hole wall of the connecting hole 1433 during the axial vibration in the connecting hole 1433, so the transmission sleeve 141 and the connecting hole 1433 will not generate friction due to contact, thereby preventing the generation of noise. The vibration guide film 142 will not vibrate unnecessarily due to the noise generated by the friction between the transmission sleeve 141 and the connecting hole, causing the vibration guide film 142 to misidentify the voice. The fixed shaft 1412 is coaxially arranged with the connecting hole 1433, which serves to guide the end of the transmission sleeve 141 away from the connecting hole 1433 and fix the vibration guide film 142. During the axial movement of the transmission sleeve 141, the transmission sleeve 141 and the fixed shaft 1412 slide relative to each other, and the sound insulation ring groove 1415 opened in the conducting groove (not shown) and the sound insulation cotton 1416 installed in the sound insulation ring groove 1415 can reduce the noise generated by friction during the relative sliding between the transmission sleeve 141 and the fixed shaft 1412.

[0041] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the sound generating device 12 is arranged at the end of the support ring 13 away from the electronic laryngeal member 14 and is electrically connected to the control device 15. The control device 15 includes a volume adjusting mechanism 151 and a sound generating device control mechanism 152. The volume adjusting mechanism 151 and the bone conduction earphone 2 are connected through a wire or a wireless connection such as Bluetooth, and the sound generating device control mechanism 152 and the electronic laryngeal member 14 are connected through a wire or a wireless connection such as Bluetooth. Figure 1The conductive wire 3 is electrically connected, and an electric feedback is formed between the sound production device control mechanism 152 and the sound production device 15. In the embodiment, the bone conduction earphone 2, the processing system 11, and the electronic throat member 14 constitute a voice sound production system 4, and the control device 15 itself is a voice control system 5. The volume adjusting mechanism 151 and the sound production device control mechanism 152 can be a rotary knob switch, a button switch, or other structures that are convenient to control the volume, and are respectively used to control the volume of the bone conduction earphone 2 and the output volume of the sound production device 12. The sound production device 12 is a loudspeaker.

[0042] Referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the support ring 13 is vertically fixed with two positioning columns 133 on the upper and lower sides of the accommodating cavity 131, and two positioning plates 1432 are respectively provided with two positioning grooves 1435 matched with the positioning columns 133, and the positioning columns 133 pass through the positioning grooves 1435. The support ring 13 is respectively provided with an elastic member 134 between the electronic throat member 14 and the processing system 11 and between the sound production device 12 and the processing system 11, and a buffer air bag 135 is arranged on the side of the elastic member 134 abutting the neck. After the positioning seat 143 is installed to the support ring 13, the two positioning plates 1432 are respectively clamped on the upper and lower sides of the support ring 13, and then the positioning columns pass through the positioning grooves and are fixed on the support ring 13 by a threaded connection or the like, so that the position of the positioning seat 143 as a whole is limited. The elastic member 134 is arranged to meet the needs of different users, and the buffer air bag 135 connected to the elastic member 134 improves the wearing comfort and stability of the communication device.

[0043] The application also designs a sound production communication method, which is realized based on the voice output communication auxiliary sound production communication device in the above embodiment, and refers to Figure 6 As shown, the method comprises the following steps:

[0044] S1, detecting the vocal cord vibration information of the larynx of a user when the user produces sound through an electronic throat member;

[0048] S5, converting the vocal cord vibration information into a voice signal by the processing system and transmitting the voice signal to a sound production device, and the sound production device produces sound;

[0049] S6, transmitting external sound to the bone conduction earphone.

[0050] In the above-mentioned method of generating alternating current, when the user determines in step S3 that the mechanical vibration in the bone conduction earphone is not the external information received in step S6 or is not the actual intention to be expressed by the user, the process is directly ended, and the subsequent processes of converting the vocal cord vibration information into a speech signal in step S4 and converting the speech signal into speech in step S5 are not performed.
