When worn, the ear hook body 10 is hung on the upper part of the user's auricle, and the battery compartment 20 fits the back of the user's auricle. It can be understood that the battery compartment 20 can assist the ear hook body 10 in wearing, which is conducive to improving the wearing stability of the ear hook 100.

[0034] The end of the wire 11 away from the electrical connection component 24 is used to electrically connect to the electronic components of the earphone body 200, and the battery 23 is detachably connected to the wire 11 through the electrical connection component 24, so that the battery 23 can provide electrical energy to the electronic components of the earphone body 200 through the electrical connection component 24 and the wire 11.

[0035] The ear hook 100 provided in the present application is compared with the prior art. The end of the ear hook body 10 away from the battery compartment 20 of the ear hook 100 of the present application is used to connect with the earphone body 200 of the earphone, and the wire 11 is used to electrically connect with the electronic components of the earphone body 200. When worn, the ear hook body 10 is suspended on the upper part of the user's external auricle, and the earphone body 200 is attached to the user's internal auricle. The battery 23 can provide power to the electronic components of the earphone body 200 through the electrical connection component 24 and the wire 11; the battery 23 is detachably connected to the wire 11 through the electrical connection component 24, so that when the battery 23 has problems such as aging or damage, the battery 23 can be separated from the wire 11, and then the battery 23 can be taken out of the compartment shell 21, and a new battery 23 is placed in the compartment shell 21, and the new battery 23 is detachably connected to the wire 11 through the electrical connection component 24, thereby realizing that the battery 23 can be replaced, effectively ensuring the endurance of the earphone and extending the service life of the earphone, which is beneficial to improving the user experience and reducing the waste of resources. At the same time, the waste batteries 23 are recycled and reused, which reduces environmental pollution and plays a role in green environmental protection.

[0036] Optionally, the ear hook body 10 is a bendable and deformable structure, so that the ear hook body 10 can be deformed when subjected to an external force, and when the external force is removed, the ear hook body 10 can maintain the deformed shape, that is, after the ear hook body 10 is deformed by force, an external force needs to be applied to the ear hook body 10 again to restore it to its original shape. In this way, the user can adjust the ear hook body 10 to a contour shape that matches his or her ear by deforming the ear hook body 10, and the ear hook body 10 can maintain its shape after adjustment, thereby helping to improve the stability of wearing. At the same time, there is no need to adjust it again when wearing it next time, which is convenient for users to use.

[0037] Optionally, the ear hook body 10 is a shape memory structure, so that the ear hook body 10 can be deformed when subjected to external force, and when the external force is removed, the ear hook body 10 can automatically return to its original shape. In this way, when the user wears it, the ear hook body 10 can be deformed to adjust the ear hook body 10 to a contour shape that matches the user's ear, and after the ear hook body 10 is adjusted, the ear hook body 10 has a tendency to return to its original shape due to its shape memory characteristics, so that the ear hook body 10 elastically abuts against the upper part of the user's outer auricle, and the earphone body 200 elastically fits the user's inner auricle, which is conducive to improving the wearing stability.

[0038] In some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 2 The ear hook body 10 includes a metal wire 12 and a protective layer 13 , and the protective layer 13 is wrapped around the metal wire 12 and the conductive wire 11 .

One end of the housing 21 is connected to the protective layer 13 of the ear hook body 10 through the connector 14, which effectively ensures the stability of the connection between the battery compartment 20 and the ear hook body 10.

[0044] Optionally, the connector 14 can be made of plastic or metal. For example, when the connector 14 is made of plastic, the connector 14, the metal wire 12 and the conductor 11 can be injection molded first, and then the connector 14 and the protective layer 13 can be hot-pressed.

[0045] The storage shell 21 is a hard shell. Optionally, the storage shell 21 can be made of plastic material or metal material.

[0046] In one embodiment of the present application, see Figure 2 One end of the housing 21 is bonded to one end of the protective layer 13, which helps to improve the stability of the connection between the battery compartment 20 and the ear hook body 10, and at the same time makes the housing 21 and the ear hook body 10 have better waterproofness. For example, when the housing 21 and the connecting member 14 are both made of plastic material, one end of the housing 21 is bonded to one end of the protective layer 13 by glue or hot melt.

[0047] In some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3The ear hook body 10 further includes an adapter 15, a portion of which is fixedly inserted into the end of the protective layer 13 away from the housing 21, and another portion of the connector 14 is used to connect with the earphone body 200. It can be understood that the earphone body 200 is connected to the end of the protective layer 13 away from the housing 21 through the connector 14.

[0048] Optionally, the adapter 15 can be made of plastic or metal. For example, when the adapter 15 is made of plastic, the adapter 15, the metal wire 12 and the conductor 11 can be firstly injection molded, and then the adapter 15 and the protective layer 13 can be hot-pressed; or, the adapter 15 and the metal wire 12 can be firstly injection molded, and then the adapter 15 and the protective layer 13 can be hot-pressed, and the adapter 15 is provided with a through hole for the conductor 11 to pass through.

[0049] Optionally, the housing 21 is a strip-shaped body, and the battery 23 is also a strip-shaped body. When the battery 23 is accommodated in the housing 21, the length direction of the battery 23 is the same or substantially the same as the length direction of the housing 21. Specifically in this embodiment, the housing 21 is substantially a cylinder, and the cross section of the housing 21 is circular. The battery 23 is a cylinder, and the cross section of the battery 23 is circular.

[0050] The battery 23 may be a soft pack battery, a hard pack battery or a button battery.

[0051] In some embodiments of this application, please refer to Figures 2 to 4 The battery 23 is a soft-pack battery, and the electrical connection component 24 includes a first connecting wire 241, a first connecting seat 242, a second connecting wire 243 and a second connecting seat 244.

Specifically, the plug is provided with a terminal 2421, and the socket is provided with a jack 2441. The terminal 2421 on the plug is inserted into the jack 2441 of the socket, so that the plug and the socket are detachably connected, and the plug and the socket are electrically connected.

[0057] By plugging the second connecting socket 244 into the first connecting socket 242, a detachable connection between the first connecting socket 242 and the second connecting socket 244 is achieved. The connection method is simple and convenient for users to operate. The connection between the second connecting socket 244 and the first connecting socket 242 is relatively stable and can stably transmit electrical energy, effectively ensuring the performance of the headphones.

[0058] In other embodiments, the first connecting seat 242 and the second connecting seat 244 can also be detachably connected by other means, for example, the first connecting seat 242 and the second connecting seat 244 are magnetically connected. Specifically, a first magnetic block is provided on the first connecting seat 242, and a second magnetic block is provided on the second connecting seat 244. The second magnetic block is adsorbed with the first magnetic block, so that the second connecting seat 244 and the first connecting seat 242 are detachably connected, and the second connecting seat 244 and the first connecting seat 242 are electrically connected.

[0059] In another embodiment of the present application, when the battery 23 is a hard-pack battery or a button battery, the electrical connection component 24 includes a positive electrode sheet and a negative electrode sheet, and both the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet are electrically connected to the wire 11.
