Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of smart glasses accessories technology, and in particular to an L-shaped bidirectional folding hearing aid smart glasses sound-conducting silicone ear cap. Background Technology

[0002] Hearing loss is often referred to as a "silent epidemic," profoundly impacting personal communication, education, employment, and social participation. To avoid the disruption of daily life caused by hearing loss, people wear hearing aids to counteract its effects. However, many users also need to wear glasses in addition to hearing aids. Using glasses and hearing aids simultaneously can place an excessive burden on the user's ears, and the two can interfere with each other, leading to inconvenience.

[0003] To address these issues, smart hearing-aid glasses, as wearable devices integrating hearing aid functions, have garnered widespread attention due to their discreetness and convenience. These devices typically integrate the audio output module into the temples of the glasses, with a sound outlet facing the user's ear canal to transmit sound. However, these products still suffer from shortcomings in acoustic sealing and sound conduction efficiency. The sound outlet design makes it difficult to form an effective seal with the user's ear canal, leading to sound leakage, reduced volume, and compromised sound quality, especially resulting in a poor user experience in noisy environments. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The main objective of this invention is to provide an L-shaped, bidirectional folding silicone ear cap for hearing aid smart glasses, which aims to improve the acoustic seal and sound conduction efficiency of hearing aid smart glasses.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention proposes an L-shaped bidirectional folding hearing aid smart glasses sound-conducting silicone ear cap for use in smart glasses. It includes a sealing connection part for connecting with the temple of the smart glasses, a guide part located at the bottom end of the sealing connection part and facing the acoustic output direction of the temple of the smart glasses, and a conductive part located at one end of the guide part facing the inside of the smart glasses. The sealing connection part is provided with a sealing cavity through it. One side of the sealing connection part is provided with a first opening opposite to the sealing cavity, and the other side is provided with a second opening.

[0006] The inner wall of the guide portion is provided with a reflective portion facing the conductive portion, and the end of the conductive portion away from the conductive portion is provided with an ear cap body;

[0007] The guide portion is provided with a first fold portion, and the conductive portion is provided with a second fold portion.

[0008] In one embodiment of this application, the guide portion is provided with a connecting portion relative to the sealing connection portion, and the first folded portion is disposed adjacent to the second opening and connected to the connecting portion.

[0009] In one embodiment of this application, the guide portion is provided with a resonant portion at one end away from the sealing connection portion, a reflective portion is provided on one side of the resonant portion, and a conductive portion is connected to the other side opposite the reflective portion.

[0010] In one embodiment of this application, the reflective portion is provided with a reflective groove connected to the side of the conductive portion away from the sealing connection portion, and the reflective groove is connected to the end of the resonant portion.

[0011] In one embodiment of this application, the second folding portion includes at least two coaxially arranged and connected end-to-end folding members, the diameter of the two folding members gradually decreasing along the direction from the guide portion to the ear cap body.

[0012] In one embodiment of this application, the folding member includes a fixing part, a mating part disposed on one side of the fixing part, and a deformable part disposed on one side of the mating part. The aperture of the mating part gradually decreases along the direction from the fixing part to the deformable part, and the aperture of the deformable part gradually decreases along the direction from the fixing part to the deformable part.

[0013] The fixing member of the latter folding member is connected to the deformable part of the former folding member.

[0014] In one embodiment of this application, the end of the conductive part away from the guide part is provided with a connector connected to the second folding part, and the end of the connector is connected to the ear cap body.

[0015] In one embodiment of this application, the sealing connection, guide, and conduction portion are integrally formed.

[0016] In one embodiment of this application, the sealing connection, guide, and conductive parts are all made of silicone.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0018] By incorporating this application into smart hearing aid glasses, the glasses can achieve better acoustic sealing and sound conduction efficiency. The smart accessories used to achieve the hearing aid effect in smart hearing aid glasses are generally integrated into the temples. Structurally, the temples include a smart accessory connection part connected to the main body of the glasses and an earpiece. This structure makes the glasses with integrated smart accessories easy to wear. Based on the above structure, this application includes a sealing connection part for sealing, a guide part for focusing and conducting sound, and a conduction part for amplifying and conducting sound through resonance to the user's ear. To improve acoustic sealing, the sealing connection part has a sealing cavity that can be tightly connected to the smart accessory connection part. The sealing connection part has a first opening for connecting the smart accessory connection part and a second opening for connecting the earpiece on both sides opposite the sealing cavity. The temples can enter through the first opening and exit through the second opening, and are finally fixed. This structure makes it easy to install the silicone ear caps and improves the acoustic sealing of the smart glasses.

[0019] The bottom of the guide section has a reflective part, and the conductive part is connected to the side of the guide section, which makes it easy for the ear cap to be connected to the user's ear. The reflective part is located at the bottom of the guide section, and the conductive part and the guide section are connected in an L-shape. In this way, the sound from the temple of the smart glasses can generate Helmholtz magnetic resonance when it passes through the bidirectional folding sound-conducting silicone ear cap of the smart hearing aid glasses. This causes the sound output from the speaker to be superimposed and amplified in the "L"-shaped channel inside the sound-conducting silicone ear cap. Combined with the matching smart hearing aid glasses, this increases the volume gain of the sound from the speaker output by 35dB to 40dB, allowing everyone with hearing loss to return to normal communication, education, employment, and social participation.

[0020] The first folding part is located on the guide part, and the second folding part is located on the conduction part. The first folding part and the second folding part cooperate with each other, so that the position of the ear cap body can be adjusted in a timely manner according to the user's needs. This design can effectively solve the problem of differences in head shape and auricle of different people, and can make it more convenient to wear for different users. With the silicone ear cap of this application, the all-weather and all-scenario wearing needs of smart hearing aid glasses can be met. Attached Figure Description

[0027] The realization of the objective, functional features and advantages of the present invention will be further explained in conjunction with the embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. Detailed Implementation

[0028] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this application clearer, the following detailed description is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative and not intended to limit the scope of this application.

[0029] Reference Figures 1 to 3 To achieve the above objectives, the present invention proposes an L-shaped bidirectional folding hearing aid smart glasses sound-conducting silicone ear cap for use in smart glasses. It includes a sealing connection part 1 for connecting with the temple of the smart glasses, a guide part 2 provided at the bottom end of the sealing connection part 1 and facing the acoustic output direction of the temple of the smart glasses, and a conductive part 5 provided at one end of the guide part 2 facing the inside of the smart glasses. The sealing connection part 1 is provided with a sealing cavity 11 through it. One side of the sealing connection part 1 is provided with a first opening opposite to the sealing cavity 11, and the other side is provided with a second opening.

[0030] The inner wall of the guide part 2 is provided with a reflective part 31 facing the conduction part 5, and the end of the conduction part 5 away from the conduction part 5 is provided with an ear cap body 52;

[0031] The guide section 2 is provided with a first folding section 4, and the transmission section 5 is provided with a second folding section 6.

[0032] By incorporating this application into smart hearing aid glasses, the glasses can achieve better acoustic sealing and sound conduction efficiency. The smart accessories used to achieve the hearing aid effect in smart hearing aid glasses are generally integrated into the temples. Structurally, the temples include a smart accessory connection part connected to the main body of the glasses and an earpiece. This structure makes the glasses with integrated smart accessories easy to wear. Based on the above structure, this application includes a sealing connection part 1 for sealing connection, a guide part 2 for focusing and conducting sound, and a conduction part 5 for amplifying sound through resonance and conducting it to the user's ear. To improve acoustic sealing, the sealing connection part 1 has a sealing cavity 11 that can be tightly connected to the smart accessory connection part. The sealing connection part 1 has a first opening for connecting the smart accessory connection part and a second opening for connecting the earpiece on both sides opposite the sealing cavity 11. The temples can enter through the first opening and exit through the second opening, and finally be fixed. This structure makes it easy to install the silicone ear caps and can improve the acoustic sealing of the smart glasses.

[0033] The bottom of the guide part 2 is provided with a reflective part 31, and the conductive part 5 is connected to the side of the guide part 2, which makes it easy for the ear cap body 52 to be connected to the user's ear. The reflective part 31 is located at the bottom of the guide part 2, and the conductive part 5 and the guide part 2 are connected in an L-shape from a structural perspective. In this way, the sound from the temple of the smart glasses can generate Helmholtz magnetic resonance when it passes through the bidirectional folding sound-conducting silicone ear cap of the hearing aid smart glasses. This causes the sound output from the speaker to be superimposed and amplified in the "L"-shaped channel inside the sound-conducting silicone ear cap. Combined with the matching smart hearing aid glasses, this increases the volume gain of the sound output from the speaker by 35dB to 40dB, allowing everyone with hearing loss to return to normal communication, education, employment, and social participation.

[0034] Regarding the sound amplification principle design of the silicone ear cap in this application, the L-shaped bidirectional folding hearing aid smart glasses sound-conducting silicone ear cap (guide part 2: vertical section facing downwards; conduction part 5: horizontal section facing inwards) forms a natural reflector 31 at the corner. This reflection and superposition effect is particularly significant at specific frequencies (40Hz~4KHz), equivalent to a natural sound wave amplifier.

[0035] As sound waves propagate downwards through the vertical ear cap, at the L-shaped bend, a portion of the sound waves directly enters the horizontal ear canal, while the remaining portion is reflected back to guide section 2 by the inner wall of the bidirectional folding silicone ear cap of the hearing aid smart glasses. These reflected sound waves encounter and superimpose (interference) with subsequent incoming sound waves in guide section 2. If the phases of these waves are appropriate (crests meet), constructive interference occurs, resulting in an increase in the amplitude (loudness) of the sound at a specific frequency. This reflection and superposition effect is particularly significant at certain frequencies, acting as a natural sound amplifier.

[0036] Through the above structure, a Helmholtz resonant cavity or tubular resonator is substantially formed inside the silicone ear cap of this application. According to the resonant cavity effect, the sound near the resonant frequency will be significantly amplified, thereby achieving the purpose of improving the sound conduction efficiency.

[0037] The first folding part 4 is disposed on the guide part 2, and the second folding part 6 is disposed on the conduction part 5. Through the cooperation of the first folding part 4 and the second folding part 6, the position of the ear cap body 52 can be adjusted in a timely manner according to the user's needs. This design can effectively solve the problem of differences in head shape and auricle among different people, and can make it more convenient for different users to wear. Through the silicone ear cap of this application, the all-weather and all-scenario wearing needs of smart hearing aid glasses can be met.

[0038] See also Figures 1 to 3 The guide part 2 is provided with a connecting part 21 relative to the sealing connection part 1, and the first folding part 4 is provided near the second opening and connected to the connecting part 21.

[0039] Because the earcups are placed on the user's ears, and the smart accessory connector with the sound outlet is located in front of the ear, in order to facilitate the connection of the silicone ear cap and allow the ear cap to connect to the user's auricle, the guide part 2 is provided with a connecting part 21 relative to the sealing connecting part 1, and the first folding part 4 of the guide part 2 is connected to the connecting part 21 near the second opening (facing the earcup). This ensures that the silicone ear cap has good acoustic sealing while allowing the guide part 2 to be positioned for the sound outlet at the temple of the glasses, and also allows the silicone ear cap to be positioned towards the sound channel area of ​​the ear, making it easy for the user to wear.

[0040] See also Figures 2 to 3 The guide part 2 is provided with a resonant part 3 at one end away from the sealing connection part 1. A reflective part 31 is provided on one side of the resonant part 3, and a conductive part 5 is connected to the other side opposite to the reflective part 31.

[0041] One end of the guide part 2 is a connecting part 21, and the other end is a resonant part 3. A first folding part 4 is provided in the middle. The resonant part 3 is provided with a reflecting part 31 facing the conducting part 5. Combined with the above-mentioned resonant cavity principle, the sound amplification effect can be achieved.

[0042] See also Figure 2 The reflective part 31 is provided with a reflective groove 32 connected to the side of the conductive part 5 away from the sealing connection part 1, and the reflective groove 32 is connected to the end of the resonant part 3.

[0043] The reflective groove 32 is connected to the end of the resonant part 3, so that the conductive part 5 cannot be directly connected to the end of the resonant part 3. Through the above structure, a Helmholtz resonant cavity or a tube resonator is essentially formed inside the silicone ear cap, ensuring the working effect of the silicone ear cap.

[0044] See also Figures 2 to 3 The second folding part 6 includes at least two folding members 61 that are coaxially arranged and connected at their ends. The diameter of the two folding members 61 gradually decreases along the direction from the guide part 2 to the ear cap body 52.

[0045] The second fold 6 gradually decreases in size along the direction from the guide 2 to the ear cap body 52, so that some sound waves can be reflected back to the resonant part 3, which can effectively improve the superposition effect of sound waves and ensure the uniformity and stability of sound amplification.

[0046] See also Figures 2 to 3 The folding member 61 includes a fixing part 62, a mating part 63 provided on one side of the fixing part 62, and a deformable part 64 provided on one side of the mating part 63. The aperture of the mating part 63 gradually decreases along the direction from the fixing part 62 to the deformable part 64, and the aperture of the deformable part 64 gradually decreases along the direction from the fixing part 62 to the deformable part 64.

[0047] The fixing member of the subsequent folding member 61 is connected to the deformation part 64 of the preceding folding member 61.

[0048] The folding part itself includes a fixing part 62 for connection, a mating part 63 for connecting the fixing part 62, and a deformable part 64 for connecting the mating part 63. The apertures of the mating part 63 and the deformable part 64 are gradually reduced, and the two cooperate with each other to effectively improve the bending angle of the second folding part 6, making it more comfortable for the user to wear.

[0049] See also Figure 2 The end of the conductive part 5 away from the guide part 2 is provided with a connector 51 connected to the second folding part 6, and the end of the connector 51 is connected to the ear cap body 52.

[0050] The conducting part 5 is connected to the second folding part 6 through the connector 51, and the ear cap body 52 is connected to the connector 51. The ear cap body 52 has a sound outlet. The direction of the conducting part 5 from the guide part 2 to the sound outlet gradually decreases, which can effectively achieve natural and stable sound amplification and improve the user experience.

[0051] See also Figure 3 The sealing connection part 1, the guide part 2 and the conduction part 5 are integrally molded, which makes the entire silicone ear cap stronger and can effectively improve its service life.

[0052] See also Figures 1 to 3 The sealing connection part 1, the guide part 2 and the conduction part 5 are all made of silicone. The use of silicone material makes the silicone ear caps more comfortable to wear and effectively improves the user experience.
