[0021] The present disclosure will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It can be understood that the specific examples described herein are only used to explain the relevant content and do not limit the present disclosure. Additionally, it should be noted that for the convenience of description, only parts related to the present disclosure are shown in the drawings.

[0022] It should be noted that, without conflict, the embodiments in the present disclosure and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other. The technical solutions of the present disclosure will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0023] The recording function plays a crucial role in information recording, efficiency improvement, and rights protection. Especially for knowledge-intensive occasions such as online meetings, real-time recording helps to comprehensively capture key information and avoid the problem of missing key points that is prone to occur during manual recording. However, some mobile phones and earphones on the market currently do not have a recording function, which to a certain extent limits the convenient use of this function by users. Most existing solutions rely on external recording devices, but the effect of these devices in collecting the sound played by mobile phones or earphones is not ideal, and since they are separated from the main devices, it brings inconvenience to users. For example, when moving or when other operations need to be carried out simultaneously, users may have to pause the current activity to adjust the recording device, affecting the fluency and efficiency of the operation. In addition, carrying and managing multiple additional devices also increases the burden on users, making the overall experience more complex and inconvenient.

[0024] Therefore, the present disclosure proposes a protective cover for an earphone case. The protective cover for the earphone case at least includes a casing, a communication module, and a recording module. Among them, the casing is sleeved on the earphone case; the communication module is disposed on the casing and is connected to the target device of the earphone in the earphone case for receiving the remote audio signal in the target device; the recording module is disposed on the casing for recording the remote audio signal.

[0025] Through the communication module, the protective cover for the earphone case is connected to the target device of the earphone. In this way, the remote audio signal obtained via the target device can be recorded by the recording module. For some mobile phones or earphones that cannot record, it is possible to collect high-definition remote audio signals without awareness and also avoid the burden of carrying multiple additional devices.

[0026] Figure 1 is a schematic structural view of a protective cover for a headphone case according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As Figure 1 shown, on the outer surface of the headphone case protective cover 100, a sleeve body 110, a microphone 120, a data transmission interface 130, a control button 140, etc. can be seen. It should be noted that the headphone case protective cover 100 is a form of the headphone case protective cover. According to different headphone cases, the headphone case protective cover can be in any suitable form.

[0027] The sleeve body 110 is sleeved on the headphone case, and the shape of the sleeve body 110 can be set according to the shape of the headphone case, which is not limited here. The sleeve body 110 can be provided with a connection hole 110a, so that the headphone case protective cover 100 can be hung on objects such as a bag or a key chain to prevent the built-in headphone case from being lost.

[0028] The sleeve body 110 can be made of one or more of soft silicone material, sponge material, hard material (such as plastic or metal, etc.), so that the headphone case protective cover 100 can fit the headphone case, avoid loss or detachment, and can play a role in protecting the headphone case.

[0029] Specifically, the sleeve body 110 can be made of soft and elastic silicone material, which can tightly wrap the headphone case, provide a buffering effect, and effectively absorb the impact force generated during dropping or collision. In addition, the silicone surface usually has anti-slip characteristics, increasing the friction when holding, making the headphone case less likely to slip, and at the same time providing a comfortable hand feeling.

[0030] Of course, a layer of sponge material can also be provided in the sleeve body 110 to further enhance its shock absorption ability. The flexibility and elasticity of the sponge help to disperse the external pressure and reduce the direct impact on the headphone case, which is especially suitable for occasions that require additional protection. This design is particularly important for those who often use headphones during outdoor activities or sports.

[0031] In order to increase the physical protection ability, the sleeve body 110 can also be made of hard materials, such as high-strength plastic or light metal. Such materials endow the protective cover with stronger structural stability, can effectively resist the scratching of sharp objects and greater external force impacts. At the same time, through precise mold design, the hard material can achieve a high degree of fit with the outer shape of the headphone case, ensuring a seamless connection between the two and preventing the headphone case from shaking or falling off in the sleeve body.

[0032] Of course, the most ideal situation is to combine the above materials skillfully. For example, a hard outer shell is used externally to resist severe external threats, while soft silicone or sponge is used internally to provide an additional buffer layer. Such a composite design not only ensures the aesthetic appearance and durability but also does not sacrifice the soft protection of internal components, providing comprehensive security for the earphone case.

[0033] The microphone 120 is disposed on the sleeve body 110 and on the outer surface of the sleeve body 110. When the recording module activates the recording function, it can collect proximal voice information more clearly and unobstructedly. The proximal voice signal can be the voice signal of the user wearing the earphone.

[0034] In a conversation scenario, the target device of the earphone can be a device such as a mobile phone, a tablet, or a computer connected to the earphone, which is not limited here. The earphone and the target device can be connected by means of a network, Bluetooth, etc., all falling within the protection scope of the present disclosure. When the user wears the earphone and interacts with the other party on the other end of the target device, when the recording module activates the recording function, the microphone 120 of the earphone case cover 100 is triggered to collect the voice signal of the user wearing the earphone, so as to make the conversation content more complete. The voice signal of the user wearing the earphone is the proximal voice signal. This conversation scenario is not limited to voice calls, video calls, online meetings for single or multiple people, etc.

[0035] The data transmission interface 130 is disposed on the sleeve body 110 and on the outer surface of the sleeve body 110. The data transmission interface 130 can be a physical interface such as a USB (Universal Serial Bus) interface or a Type-C interface, and is used to transmit the recorded remote audio signal and proximal voice signal of the recording module to an external device for subsequent processing of these voice signals.

[0036] Of course, the data transmission interface 130 can also be a virtual interface such as a Bluetooth module or a wireless network module, which is also used to transmit the recorded remote audio signal and proximal voice signal of the recording module to an external device.

[0037] The control button 140 is disposed on the sleeve body 110 and on the outer surface of the sleeve body 110. The control button 140 can be single or multiple, and can be a touch screen button or a physical button. The control button 140 is connected to the recording module and is used to control the start, pause, or stop of the recording module.

[0038] When there is a single control button 140, the control instruction corresponding to the control button 140 can be determined by the duration of the first operation such as touching or pressing. For example, if the control duration of the first operation on the control button 140 is 1 second, it can be a pause instruction; if the control duration of the first operation on the control button 140 is 5 seconds, it can be a stop instruction or a start instruction. Specifically, if the recording function of the recording module is started, when the control duration of the first operation on the control button 140 is 5 seconds, it is a stop instruction to stop the recording function; conversely, if the recording function is closed, when the control duration of the first operation on the control button 140 is 5 seconds, it is a start instruction to start the recording function. When there are multiple control buttons 140, corresponding control instructions can be allocated and configured for each control button 140. For example, three control buttons 140 are set, corresponding to a start instruction, a pause instruction, and a stop instruction respectively. Additionally, according to the actual situation, if there are other instruction requirements, more control buttons can be set. The number, position, and shape of the control buttons are not limited and all fall within the protection scope of the present disclosure.

[0039] The earphone case protective cover proposed by the present disclosure integrates the recording function into the protective cover, providing great convenience for call recording, enabling users to easily record important information without the need to carry additional recording devices. Its intelligent monitoring function can automatically detect the earphone usage status and start recording when needed, ensuring that voices at critical moments are not missed. In addition, through automatic clearing after data synchronization and cloud storage support, it not only effectively manages the storage space but also enhances privacy protection and data security.

[0040] Figure 2 It is an architecture diagram of the earphone case protective cover according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. The following will be combined with Figure 2 to elaborate in detail on the overall architecture of the earphone case protective cover 200.

[0041] It should be noted that the earphone case protective cover 200 can be the same as or similar to the earphone case protective cover 100. When the earphone case protective cover 200 is the same as the earphone case protective cover 100, the microphone 220 can be the microphone 120, the interface 230 can be the interface 130, the control button 240 can be the control button 140, and the housing 210 can be the housing 110, which is not limited again.

[0042] The housing 210 is sleeved on the earphone case to protect the earphone case. For example, it can prevent scratches on the outer surface of the earphone case and provide buffering when the earphone case collides, greatly reducing the potential threat of physical impact to the earphone case. The shape of the housing 210 should fit the shape of the earphone case. The outer surface of the housing 210 can have anti-slip textures to increase the hand feeling when holding and play an anti-slip role.

[0043] Specifically, the sleeve 210 can be made of a soft and elastic silicone material, which can tightly wrap the earphone case, provide a buffering effect, and effectively absorb the impact force generated during dropping or collision. In addition, the silicone surface usually has anti-slip properties, increasing the friction when holding, making the earphone case less likely to slip, and at the same time providing a comfortable hand feeling.

[0044] Of course, a layer of sponge material can also be set in the sleeve 210 to further enhance its shock-absorbing ability. The flexibility and elasticity of the sponge help to disperse external pressure and reduce the direct impact on the earphone case, which is especially suitable for occasions that require additional protection. This design is particularly important for those who often use earphones during outdoor activities or sports.

[0045] To increase the physical protection ability, the sleeve 210 can also be made of hard materials, such as high-strength plastics or lightweight metals. Such materials endow the protective cover with stronger structural stability, can effectively resist the scratching of sharp objects and larger external force impacts. At the same time, through precise mold design, the hard material can achieve a high degree of fit with the shape of the earphone case, ensuring a seamless connection between the two, and preventing the earphone case from shaking or falling off in the sleeve.

[0046] Of course, the most ideal situation is to combine the above materials skillfully. For example, use a hard outer shell to resist serious external threats, and use soft silicone or sponge inside to provide an additional buffer layer. Such a composite design not only ensures the aesthetics and firmness of the appearance, but also does not lose the soft protection of internal components, providing all-round safety protection for the earphone case.

[0047] A microphone 220 can be embedded in the sleeve 210, and the microphone 220 should be exposed on the outer surface of the sleeve 210 to collect clear proximal voice signals. Considering the usage habits of different users, the microphone 220 can be set at the top of the sleeve 210 and other positions that are not easily blocked, so that the placement posture of the earphone case protective cover 200 has the least impact on the acquisition quality of proximal voice signals, ensuring the best pickup angle and performance.

[0048] To further improve the performance of the microphone 220, special acoustic optimization materials can be used around the microphone 220 to reduce background noise interference and enhance the clarity and realism of proximal voice signals at the same time.

[0049] In addition, the microphone 220 can also support audio processing technologies, such as noise reduction algorithms and echo cancellation functions, so as to provide clearer and more natural proximal audio signals. This expands the applicable scenarios of the earphone case protective cover 200, such as noisy offices or streets.

[0050] The housing 210 may also be embedded with control buttons 240, and the number of control buttons 240 may be single or multiple. When the number of control buttons 240 is single, the control instruction of the control button 240 can be determined by the touch duration; when there are multiple control buttons 240, different control buttons have one or a few control instructions.

[0051] The housing 210 may also be embedded with a data transmission interface 230. The data transmission interface 230 is disposed on the outer surface of the housing 210 and may be a physical interface such as a USB interface or a Type-C interface, etc., for transmitting the remote audio signal and the proximal voice signal recorded by the recording module to an external device, so as to facilitate subsequent processing of these sound signals. Of course, the data transmission interface 230 may also be a virtual interface such as a Bluetooth module or a wireless network module, which is also used to transmit the remote audio signal and the proximal voice signal recorded by the recording module to an external device.

[0052] After the external device obtains the proximal voice signal and the remote audio signal from the storage space 290 through the data transmission interface 230, the user can perform various processes on these recordings. First of all, the external device can replay the recording in a high-fidelity manner to ensure that the original details of the sound quality are perfectly reproduced, and at the same time support the variable-speed playback function, which is convenient for the user to adjust the playback speed according to needs without affecting the pitch. In addition, with the help of speech-to-text technology, the recording content can be quickly converted into text format, supporting multi-language recognition, and allowing the user to further edit and correct it, greatly improving the efficiency of information collation.

[0053] The control button 240 is electrically connected to the recording module 260. After the control button 240 receives the first operation of the user, it will synchronize the control instruction triggered by the first operation to the recording module 260 to control the state of the recording function in the recording module 260.

[0054] Specifically, if a single control button 240 corresponds to a unique control instruction, then after the user performs the first operation on the control button 240, it will trigger the corresponding control instruction to control the state of the recording function of the recording module 260. For example, if the control button 240 corresponds to a pause instruction, then after the user performs the first operation on it, the recording function is paused. The first operation may be pressing, clicking, voice control, etc., which is not limited here.

[0055] When a single control button 240 corresponds to multiple control instructions, the triggered control instruction can be determined by the duration of the first operation or the number of times of the first operation. For example, performing a first operation on the control button 240 for 1 second triggers a pause instruction or a resume instruction; performing a first operation on it for 5 seconds triggers a start instruction or a stop instruction. For another example, quickly double-clicking the control button 240 triggers a start instruction or a stop instruction; clicking the control button 240 once triggers a pause instruction or a resume instruction, etc., which are not limited here.

[0056] It should be noted that the triggering method of the control button 240 when triggering a control instruction is not limited and can be in any form.

[0057] The communication module 250 is disposed in the sleeve body 210 and is used to communicate with the target device of the earphone in the earphone case. The communication module 250 can be a Bluetooth module or a wireless network module, etc., which are not limited here.

[0058] If the communication module 250 is a Bluetooth module, it may include a Bluetooth receiving unit and a Bluetooth transmitting unit. The remote audio signal of the target device is obtained through the Bluetooth receiving unit, and the proximal voice signal and the remote audio signal collected by the recording module 260 can be transmitted to an external device through the Bluetooth transmitting unit.

[0059] In some scenarios, the communication module 250 may include an antenna, and the antenna is exposed outside the sleeve body 210 to improve the stability of signal reception and transmission.

[0060] The recording module 260 is disposed in the sleeve body 210 and is used to record the remote audio signal received by the communication module 250 and the proximal voice signal collected by the microphone 220. The recording module 260 can start the recording function in response to the control instruction of the control button 240, or can also determine to turn on or off the recording function according to the earphone state monitored by the monitoring module 270.

[0061] In some embodiments, the recording module 260 can support sound recording in multiple formats and resolutions, can switch the format and resolution by itself, or can determine the recording format and resolution according to the user's selection.

[0062] In a long-term recording scenario, a low-resolution format can be selected or actively switched to save storage space; in a scenario where high-quality sound is required, a high-resolution format can be switched to ensure perfect recording and reproduction of sound details.

[0063] The monitoring module 270 is disposed in the sleeve 210 and electrically connected to the recording module 260. The monitoring module 270 has a sensor unit, which can be a photosensitive sensor or a Hall sensor, and can determine whether the earphone is in the earphone case, and then determine the state of the earphone.

[0064] By using a high-sensitivity photosensitive sensor, the monitoring module 270 can identify whether the earphone is in the earphone case according to the change of light. When the earphone is placed in the earphone case, due to the change of the internal environment light, the photosensitive sensor can quickly detect this change and transmit the information to the system to confirm that the earphone has been safely placed in the case. On the contrary, if the earphone leaves the earphone case, the sensor will also capture this change and update the earphone state in real time.

[0065] Alternatively, for an earphone that generates sound through electromagnetic principles, the Hall sensor can be used as the sensor unit of the monitoring module 270, and the magnetic field change is used for detection. At this time, a magnetic field induction element can be set in the earphone case protective cover. When the earphone approaches or enters the earphone case, the Hall sensor can sense the change of the magnetic field intensity, so as to accurately judge the position state of the earphone. This method not only has a fast response speed, but also has high accuracy and reliability.

[0066] When the earphone is in the earphone case, it usually means that the earphone is in an idle state, that is, it is unlikely that the user is using the earphone for a call or a meeting. Therefore, in this case, the recording requirement is low, and the recording module 260 does not need to start the recording function. On the contrary, once it is detected that the earphone is not placed in the earphone case, it indicates that the earphone may be in use, such as participating in a call or a meeting. At this time, the system can intelligently and automatically trigger the recording module 260 to start the recording function.

[0067] This intelligent automatic recording mechanism ensures that important information loss can be minimized even when the user fails to manually turn on the recording function in time or forgets. By real-time monitoring the position state of the earphone and dynamically adjusting the working mode of the recording module according to whether the earphone is in use, it not only improves the user experience, but also provides an additional layer of security for the user, ensuring that the voice recording at critical moments will not be missed. In addition, such a design also takes into account privacy and the effective use of storage resources, activating the recording function only when necessary, which not only protects the user's privacy but also saves storage space.

[0068] Furthermore, the monitoring module 270 can also be connected to a supporting application. Through Bluetooth or other wireless communication technologies, it can synchronize the status information of the earphones to the user's smart device in real time. In this way, the user can not only check at any time whether the earphones are properly stored in the earphone case to avoid losing them, but also obtain more useful information, such as the remaining battery power and working status of the earphones. In addition, the application can provide personalized suggestions or reminder services based on this data, such as low battery warnings or optimal storage tips, to ensure that the earphones are always in the best condition.

[0069] The power module 280 is arranged in the housing 210 and can supply power to the communication module 250 and the recording module 260 to ensure the continuity of signal transmission and the smooth operation of the recording function. Of course, the power module 280 can also supply power to important components such as the microphone 220, the interface 230, the control button 240, the monitoring module 270, and the storage space 290.

[0070] It should be noted that the power module 280 fully considers various usage scenarios of the user. For example, in the low power mode, it can give priority to ensuring the power consumption requirements of core functions (such as communication and recording), and give priority to supplying power to the communication module 250 and the recording module 260 to ensure that the most important tasks can be completed even in the case of tight power. In addition, the power module 280 can also be connected to the power supply interface of the earphone case. When the battery power of the earphone case is insufficient, it can supply power to the earphone case to ensure the normal use of the earphones.

[0071] The storage space 290 is arranged in the housing 210 and is used to store the remote audio signal and the proximal voice signal collected by the recording module 260.

[0072] The storage space 290 not only has high storage capacity, but also is equipped with an intelligent periodic cleaning function to ensure more orderly and efficient data management. After a set time period, the storage space 290 will automatically clean the stored data, thereby releasing storage resources and providing sufficient space for subsequent signal storage. In addition, after synchronizing the saved remote audio signal and proximal voice signal to an external device (such as a smart phone, a tablet computer or a computer), these backed-up data can be actively or passively deleted. This design not only ensures the security of the data, but also effectively avoids waste of storage space.

[0073] The storage space 290 can also be independent of the housing 210 and be set in the cloud environment. By migrating the data to the cloud, users can enjoy a larger storage space and are no longer limited by the capacity of local hardware. The cloud storage solution not only provides higher data security, including multiple backups and encryption technologies, but also allows users to access this data anytime and anywhere, improving the convenience of obtaining remote audio signals and proximal voice signals.

[0074] Of course, the storage space 290 can also be configured in a hybrid mode of local and cloud, that is, important data is backed up to the cloud in real time, while daily use relies on local storage to reduce dependence on the network and improve response speed. When long-term archiving is required or local storage space needs to be released, selected data can be automatically or according to user instructions migrated to the cloud and deleted from the local to ensure a continuous and efficient signal storage process.

[0075] In some embodiments, the recording module 260 can identify the identity of the speaker according to voice characteristics such as tone color and intonation. This function not only improves the intelligent processing ability of recording, but also brings great convenience to subsequent data management and use.

[0076] Specifically, during the recording process, the recording module 260 can analyze various voice characteristics in the audio signal in real time and compare them with known voiceprint templates to accurately identify different speakers. Once the identification is completed, the recording files will be automatically classified and stored according to the identity of the speaker. For example, in a multi-party meeting, the system can mark and archive the speech content of each participant separately, enabling users to easily retrieve and review specific parts of the discussion according to the speaker.

[0077] This classification storage based on the speaker's identity not only improves the efficiency of information collation, but also provides strong support for subsequent data analysis. For example, in legal affairs or market research, users may need to conduct in-depth analysis of the opinions or feedback of specific individuals. At this time, the recording files classified by the speaker can significantly simplify the search process and save a lot of time.

[0078] The earphone case protective cover proposed in this disclosure integrates the recording function into the protective cover, providing great convenience for call recording, enabling users to easily record important information without the need to carry additional recording devices. Its intelligent monitoring function can automatically detect the usage status of the earphones and start recording when needed to ensure that the voices at critical moments are not missed. In addition, through automatic clearing after data synchronization and cloud storage support, it not only effectively manages the storage space, but also enhances privacy protection and data security.
