Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of swimming equipment technology, and more specifically, to an earphone connection component and smart swimming goggles. Background Technology

[0002] With the improvement of people's living standards and the enhancement of health awareness, swimming, as a full-body exercise, has become widely popular. To enhance the swimming experience, various auxiliary devices such as swimming goggles, earplugs, and waterproof music players have emerged. However, these devices still have some inconveniences in actual use.

[0003] Traditional swimming goggles primarily function to protect the eyes from water irritation and provide a clear field of vision, but they fail to meet the diverse needs of users who wish to enjoy music and obtain sports data feedback while swimming. While there are waterproof headphones specifically designed for underwater use, these headphones often need to be worn separately and are prone to falling off during swimming, affecting comfort, potentially leading to damage or loss, and even posing safety hazards in some situations. Furthermore, smart swimming goggles capable of acquiring sports data have emerged; however, the integration design between existing waterproof headphones and smart goggles is relatively simple. Generally, for waterproofing purposes, the headphones and smart goggles are integrated into one unit, making it impossible to disassemble and replace the headphones. Users need to switch between different types of headphones in different usage scenarios and require flexible and convenient headphone replacement. Existing smart goggles do not meet these needs, significantly impacting the user experience. Moreover, due to their use in water, the integration of headphones and smart goggles often lacks effective waterproofing, leading to damage to the internal electrical components of the smart goggles and affecting normal use.

[0004] As can be seen from the above, existing technologies suffer from poor user experience with smart swimming goggles. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The main objective of this invention is to provide an earphone connection component and smart swimming goggles to solve the problem of poor user experience in existing smart swimming goggles.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, according to one aspect of the present invention, an earphone connection assembly is provided for connecting a swimming goggle body and an earphone assembly of smart swimming goggles, comprising: a first connector disposed within the swimming goggle body; a second connector, one end of which is fixedly connected to the earphone assembly; the earphone assembly includes a bone conduction earphone assembly or an air conduction earphone assembly; the swimming goggle body has an installation cavity communicating with the outside, and the other end of the second connector is detachably fitted into the installation cavity to enable the earphone assembly to be replaceable; wherein, in the assembled state, the second connector and the installation cavity form a sealing fit to achieve waterproof sealing; the second connector is electrically coupled to the first connector to establish an electrical signal transmission path between the earphone assembly and the swimming goggle body.

[0007] Furthermore, the first connector includes a first guide post, and the second connector includes a second guide post. The first guide post is electrically connected to the electronic component, and the second guide post is electrically connected to the earphone component. When the second connector is installed in the mounting cavity, the second guide post and the first guide post are in contact and connected.

[0008] Furthermore, the first connector also includes a bracket and a baffle. The bracket has a receiving groove, and the baffle is disposed in the receiving groove and divides the receiving groove into a first groove segment and a second groove segment. The baffle has a first through hole, and a first guide post passes through the first through hole. The baffle is used to prevent the fixing adhesive in the first groove segment from entering the second groove segment.

[0009] Furthermore, the second connector also includes a base and a boss, the boss protruding from the base, the second guide post being disposed on the boss, and the shape of the mounting cavity being adapted to the base and the boss.

[0010] Furthermore, one of the boss and the mounting cavity is provided with an annular groove, and the other is provided with a convex ring. The shape of the convex ring is adapted to the annular groove. The annular groove or the convex ring is located on the outer periphery of the second guide post. The second connector also includes a seal, which is assembled in the annular groove. The convex ring extends into the annular groove to abut against the seal.

[0011] Furthermore, the second connector also includes a locking member. Locking holes are provided at both ends of the base, and mounting holes are provided in the mounting cavity. The locking member passes through the locking hole and extends into the mounting hole to connect and fix the second connector to the swimming goggle body.

[0012] Furthermore, the second connector also includes a guide post, which extends along the direction in which the second connector extends into the mounting cavity, and a guide groove adapted to the guide post is provided in the mounting cavity.

[0013] According to another aspect of the present invention, a smart swimming goggle is also provided, including a goggle body, an earphone assembly, and the aforementioned earphone connection assembly.

[0014] Furthermore, the swimming goggle body includes a frame, a lens, an eye shield, and a side frame. The lens is located inside the frame, the eye shield is fitted onto the lens, the side frame is connected to the frame, the side frame has an installation cavity, and the side frame has a receiving cavity for accommodating at least a portion of the electronic components. A first connector is accommodated in the receiving cavity and is electrically connected to the electronic components.

[0015] Furthermore, a partition is provided inside the receiving cavity, and a sealing cavity is formed between the partition and the inner wall of the receiving cavity. The bracket of the first connector is installed inside the sealing cavity. One of the bracket and the sealing cavity has a first positioning groove, and the other of the bracket and the sealing cavity has a corresponding matching positioning rib, which is engaged with the first positioning groove; or one of the bracket and the receiving cavity has a first positioning groove, and the other of the bracket and the receiving cavity has a corresponding matching positioning rib, which is engaged with the first positioning groove.

[0016] Applying the technical solution of this invention, the earphone connection assembly is used to connect the goggle body and the earphone assembly of a smart swimming goggle. It includes a first connector and a second connector. The first connector is disposed within the goggle body, and one end of the second connector is fixedly connected to the earphone assembly. The earphone assembly includes a bone conduction earphone assembly or an air conduction earphone assembly. The goggle body has an installation cavity that communicates with the outside. The other end of the second connector is detachably fitted into the installation cavity to allow for the replacement of the earphone assembly. In the assembled state, the second connector and the installation cavity form a sealed fit to achieve waterproof sealing; the second connector is electrically coupled to the first connector to establish an electrical signal transmission path between the earphone assembly and the goggle body. Thus, the earphone connection assembly not only connects the earphone assembly to the goggle body and enables electrical signal transmission, but also allows for flexible and convenient replacement of the earphone assembly through its detachable design, meeting different usage needs and facilitating repair and replacement of the earphone assembly. This significantly improves the user experience and solves the problem of poor user experience in existing smart swimming goggles. Furthermore, by sealing the second connector with the mounting cavity, the headphone assembly can be flexibly and conveniently replaced while also providing a good sealing and waterproof effect. This effectively prevents water from entering the goggle body through the mounting cavity and damaging the electronic components, ensuring the normal use of the smart goggles.

Detailed Implementation

[0034] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0035] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used in this application have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this application pertains.

[0036] In this invention, unless otherwise stated, directional terms such as "upper," "lower," "top," and "bottom" are generally used in relation to the direction shown in the accompanying drawings, or in relation to the vertical, perpendicular, or gravitational direction of the component itself; similarly, for ease of understanding and description, "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer contours of each component itself, but the above directional terms are not intended to limit this invention.

[0037] Obviously, the embodiments described above are merely some, not all, embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0038] To address the poor user experience of existing smart swimming goggles, this invention provides an earphone connection component and smart swimming goggles. The smart swimming goggles include the earphone connection component described below.

[0039] like Figure 1As shown, the smart swimming goggles include a goggle body and an earphone assembly 60. The goggle body includes a frame 10, lenses 20, a nose bridge 30, goggles 40, and side frames 50. Lenses 20 are fixed within the frame 10. There are two lenses, one within each frame 10, and the two frames 10 are connected by the nose bridge 30. Furthermore, the side frames 50 are connected to the frame 10 and extend rearward. The side frames 50 have internal storage space for housing electronic components. The earphone assembly 60 is located on the side frames 50 and electrically connected to the electronic components. The earphone assembly 60 is configured to output audio signals adapted to the swimming scenario, including but not limited to motion data feedback, training guidance, and music. By designing the side frames 50, the goggle body has sufficient storage space to accommodate a wide range of electronic components, enabling the smart swimming goggles to have more functions and improving the user experience.

[0040] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 As shown, the frame 10 has a split structure, including an upper frame 11 and a lower frame 12, which are detachably connected. Specifically, the lower frame 12 is the main body of the frame 10, and the nose bridge 30 connects the two lower frames 12 together in a single piece. Alternatively, the nose bridge 30 can also be detachably connected to the two lower frames 12, allowing users to easily replace nose bridges of different sizes. This design enhances the overall structural stability of the swimming goggles, ensuring they are less prone to deformation or damage during use, and facilitates the replacement or maintenance of the lenses 20 to adapt to different usage scenarios and needs.

[0041] Specifically, one end of the upper frame 11 has a rotating hole, and the lower frame 12 is correspondingly provided with a rotating shaft. The upper frame 11 is sleeved on the rotating shaft through the rotating hole, thereby rotatably connecting with the lower frame 12. The other end of the upper frame 11 has a connecting hole, and the lower frame 12 is correspondingly provided with a connector, thereby achieving a fixed connection between the upper frame 11 and the lower frame 12 after rotational engagement. In this embodiment, the connector can be a connecting post with internal threads. The connecting hole of the upper frame 11 has a first section and a second section arranged vertically. The inner diameter of the first section is larger than the inner diameter of the second section, thus forming a stepped surface. The connecting post extends into the second section, and the screw is screwed into the connecting post from the upper first section and fixed with the stepped surface, thereby achieving a fixed connection between the upper frame 11 and the lower frame 12. Of course, the connector and connecting hole can also be other connection forms, such as snap-fit, magnetic attraction, etc., which can be selected according to actual needs. Furthermore, the upper frame 11 can be the main body of the frame 10, the bridge 30 connects the two upper frames 11 together and is integrally formed, and the lower frame 12 has the aforementioned rotating structure and connecting structure, which are not limited here.

[0042] In this embodiment, the electronic components include a circuit board 80 and a battery. The electronic components include multiple functional modules and sensors to realize the intelligent functions of the swimming goggles. The battery is electrically connected to the circuit board 80, providing power to the entire intelligent swimming goggles. The circuit board 80 integrates at least one of a wireless communication module, a data storage module, an audio processing module, and an IMU (Inertial Measurement Unit) sensor. It is understood that the side frame 50 having internal space to accommodate the electronic components does not mean that all electronic components must be housed within this internal space, such as the IMU sensor mounted on the frame 10.

[0043] The wireless communication module enables wireless communication with external devices (such as smartphones), supporting functions like music playback and phone calls, and synchronizing user activity data to a mobile application for analysis and recording. Specifically, the wireless communication module can be a Bluetooth module. Users can control the smart swimming goggles to play music, answer calls, etc., via external devices (such as smartphones), and simultaneously synchronize swimming data to the external device for detailed analysis.

[0044] The data storage module can not only save swimming data locally, such as swimming time, distance, and stroke frequency, making it easy for users to review and analyze their exercise; it also stores music files to meet users' entertainment needs while swimming. Even without an external device connection, users can play locally stored music through their smart swimming goggles.

[0045] The audio processing module handles sound signals from the wireless communication module or local storage, optimizing sound quality and adapting to the characteristics of the headphone assembly 60 to ensure clear sound even underwater. Whether playing music or receiving voice feedback for motion data, it provides a clear, high-quality audio experience.

[0046] The IMU sensor accurately captures the user's movement by measuring data such as acceleration and angular velocity from the swimming goggles. Combined with built-in algorithms, it can accurately identify various swimming strokes, including breaststroke, freestyle, backstroke, and butterfly, and calculate key data such as stroke frequency and swimming distance in real time. This data is transmitted to a data storage module for later review by the user. Furthermore, the headphone assembly 60 is configured to receive and output audio signals generated by the audio processing module after processing the data collected by the IMU sensor. Specifically, the audio processing module converts this into voice commands, which are then fed back to the user through the headphone assembly 60 to assist in adjusting the swimming rhythm and improving training effectiveness.

[0047] Furthermore, the electronic components also include a geomagnetic sensor. A geomagnetic sensor can detect the Earth's magnetic field to determine direction. When swimming in an indoor pool, turning movements cause significant changes in body orientation, and the geomagnetic sensor can capture these drastic changes in direction in real time. When the geomagnetic sensor detects a significant deflection in the orientation of the goggles (i.e., the wearer's head) within a short period, it can determine that the user is turning. Of course, this can also be combined with motion data from an IMU sensor to optimize the analysis of turning movements, providing users with more scientific motion feedback. When swimming in open water, the geomagnetic sensor can sense changes in orientation in real time and can even convert directional information into concise voice prompts through headphones, such as "Currently facing due east" or "Deviated 10 degrees from the preset direction, it is recommended to adjust to the left," ensuring that the user always moves in the target direction.

[0048] This application integrates the earphone component 60 with the swimming goggles body, avoiding the inconvenience of using swimming goggles and earphones separately in the traditional way. It also ensures a stable high-quality audio experience during swimming. In addition, by setting up an IMU sensor, it can monitor and analyze key swimming data such as swimming distance, number of laps, and stroke rate in real time, and convey this data information to the user in the form of auditory feedback through the earphone component 60. This helps the user adjust their swimming rhythm and improve training results, so that the user does not need to spend energy on visual data acquisition during swimming and can focus on swimming, which greatly improves the user experience.

[0049] In this embodiment, there are two side frames 50. Each side frame 50 is connected to one of the two mirror frames 10, thereby clamping the user's ears. Further, as... Figure 14 As shown, the smart swimming goggles also include a strap 110, which is made of elastic material. Both ends of the strap 110 are connected to the ends of the two side frames 50, allowing the smart swimming goggles to be securely fitted over the user's head. Specifically, a connection hole is provided at the end of the side frame 50 furthest from the frame 10 for connecting the strap 110, ensuring the stability of the goggles.

[0050] In this embodiment, there may be one or two earphone components 60. When there are two earphone components 60, they are respectively disposed on two side frames 50, i.e., on both sides of the smart goggles, so that both ears of the user can receive sound. When there is only one earphone component 60, it is disposed on one side of one side frame 50, i.e., on one side of the smart goggles. Of course, if there is only one side frame 50, the earphone component 60 is disposed on that side frame 50. After the user wears the goggles, the side frame 50 fits snugly against the user's face, and its position hardly shifts during swimming. Fixing the earphone component 60 to the side frame 50 can always maintain a stable distance from the user's hearing system, ensuring clear underwater audio transmission. In addition, when the earphone component 60 is fixed to the side frame 50, it can be connected to electronic components through the wiring channels inside the side frame 50, meeting the requirements for underwater waterproof rating.

[0051] In this embodiment, the headphone assembly 60 is a bone conduction headphone and / or an air conduction headphone. Bone conduction headphones are suitable for users who do not have high requirements for sound quality but need to maintain awareness of their surroundings; air conduction headphones provide a better sound quality experience, and users can choose according to their preferences and usage scenarios. Specifically, when there is one headphone assembly 60, it can be either a bone conduction headphone or an air conduction headphone; when there are two headphone assemblies 60, both can be either bone conduction headphones or air conduction headphones, or one can be a bone conduction headphone and the other an air conduction headphone, depending on actual needs. Furthermore, the headphone assembly 60 can also be other types of headphones, which are not limited here.

[0052] In this embodiment, as Figure 8As shown, the side frame 50 has a receiving cavity 53. It can be understood that the receiving cavity 53 is part of the internal accommodating space of the side frame 50. The circuit board 80 and the battery are respectively located within the receiving cavities 53 of the two side frames 50, maintaining a balanced weight distribution on both sides of the smart swimming goggles and improving wearing comfort. Furthermore, when the circuit board 80 and the battery are located in different receiving cavities 53, the smart swimming goggles also include circuit connection wires. The frame 10 and the nose bridge 30 each have interconnected hollow channels. The circuit connection wire connects to the circuit board 80 in one of the receiving cavities 53, and passes through the hollow channel through the frame 10 and nose bridge 30 to enter the receiving cavity 53 where the battery is located on the other side, electrically connecting to the battery and ensuring normal communication and power supply between the electronic components. This design avoids exposed circuit connection wires, improving the aesthetics of the smart swimming goggles and preventing electric shock. It is understandable that when there is one headphone assembly 60, the circuit connection wire is connected to the circuit board 80 and the headphone connection assembly 70 in one of the receiving cavities 53, and passes through the lens frame 10 and nose bridge 30 along the hollow channel to enter the receiving cavity 53 where the battery is located on the other side and is electrically connected to the battery; or, the circuit connection wire is connected to the circuit board 80 in one of the receiving cavities 53, and passes through the lens frame 10 and nose bridge 30 along the hollow channel to enter the receiving cavity 53 where the battery is located on the other side and is electrically connected to the battery and the headphone connection assembly 70; when there are two headphone assemblies 60, the circuit connection wire is connected to the circuit board 80 and the headphone connection assembly 70 in one of the receiving cavities 53, and passes through the lens frame 10 and nose bridge 30 along the hollow channel to enter the receiving cavity 53 where the battery is located on the other side and is electrically connected to the battery and the headphone connection assembly 70.

[0053] In an alternative embodiment, the goggle body may not have a nose bridge 30; that is, the two frames 10 are directly connected together. In this case, circuit wiring passes sequentially through the two frames 10 along the hollow channel, thereby connecting the components between the electronic components.

[0054] In an alternative embodiment, there may be only one side frame 50, in which case the circuit board 80 and the battery are both installed within the receiving cavity 53 of the side frame 50. Correspondingly, there is only one earphone assembly 60, meaning that the smart goggles have an earphone assembly 60 on one side. In this case, the smart goggles can still be secured using the strap 110, with both ends of the strap 110 connected to one side frame 50 and the other frame 10, respectively, thereby placing the smart goggles over the user's head.

[0055] In this embodiment, the lens 20 can be a regular optical transparent lens to meet the basic requirement of a clear field of vision during daily swimming, or it can be a holographic waveguide lens to provide users with rich information display functions, such as swimming data and navigation information, bringing users a more intelligent swimming experience. The goggles 40 are tightly fitted onto the lens 20, providing a good seal and effectively preventing water from entering the goggles and protecting the eyes. Furthermore, when the lens 20 is a holographic waveguide lens, an optomechanical module is also installed in the receiving cavity 53. The holographic waveguide lens can guide the image light signal containing motion data information from the optomechanical module to the user's eyes. Furthermore, both lenses 20 can be either regular optical transparent lenses or both holographic waveguide lenses, or one can be a regular optical transparent lens and the other a holographic waveguide lens, which can be selected according to actual needs.

[0056] In this embodiment, as Figure 7 As shown, the side frame 50 includes a housing 51 and a cover 52, which together form a receiving cavity 53. It is understood that smart swimming goggles are used in water; to ensure the sealing of the side frame 50, a waterproof structure is provided at the connection between the cover 52 and the housing 51. Specifically, the cover 52 has a raised rib 56, and the housing 51 has a corresponding waterproof groove 57, with the raised rib 56 embedded within the waterproof groove 57. Furthermore, the raised rib 56 is fixed to the waterproof groove 57 by adhesive application, effectively preventing water from entering the receiving cavity 53 and protecting the electronic components from water corrosion. Alternatively, the housing 51 can have a raised rib 56, and the cover 52 can have a corresponding waterproof groove 57; the choice can be made according to actual needs.

[0057] In this embodiment, as Figures 3 to 5 As shown, the smart swimming goggles also include an earphone connection component 70, and the earphone component 60 is connected to the side frame 50 via the earphone connection component 70. Specifically, as... Figures 8 to 13As shown, the headphone connection assembly 70 includes a first connector 71 and a second connector 72. Further, the bottom of the housing 51 has a mounting cavity 511 for assembling the headphone connection assembly 70. The mounting cavity 511 is separated from the receiving cavity 53 and extends to the outer surface of the side frame 50 to communicate with the outside. The first connector 71 is housed within the receiving cavity 53 and is electrically connected to the electronic components. One end of the second connector 72 is fixedly connected to the headphone assembly 60, and the other end of the second connector 72 is detachably mounted within the mounting cavity 511 to allow for the replacement of the headphone assembly 60. In the assembled state, the second connector 72 and the mounting cavity 511 form a sealing fit to achieve a waterproof seal; the second connector 72 is electrically coupled to the first connector 71 to establish an electrical signal transmission path between the headphone assembly 60 and the swimming goggle body. Understandably, the purpose of connecting the headphone connection assembly 70 to the side frame 50 is to enable the headphone assembly 60 to be electrically connected to the electronic components, specifically to the circuit board 80 inside the receiving cavity 53.

[0058] The headphone connection component 70 of this application not only connects the headphone component 60 to the swimming goggle body and enables electrical signal transmission, but also allows for detachable and separate design, enabling users to flexibly and conveniently replace the headphone component 60. Users can choose between air conduction or bone conduction headphones to meet different usage needs, and it also facilitates the repair and replacement of the headphone component 60, greatly improving the user experience. Furthermore, by sealing the second connector 72 with the mounting cavity 511, the headphone connection component 70 not only allows for flexible and convenient replacement of the headphone component 60, but also provides excellent sealing and waterproofing, effectively preventing water from entering the swimming goggle body through the mounting cavity 511 and damaging the electronic components, thus ensuring the normal operation of the smart swimming goggles.

[0059] Furthermore, this application connects the headphone assembly 60 to the side frame 50 by setting the headphone connection assembly 70. The first connector 71 and the second connector 72 are respectively located in the receiving cavity 53 and the mounting cavity 511 separated by the side frame 50, thereby effectively preventing water from entering the receiving cavity 53 from the mounting cavity 511 and damaging the electronic components, and greatly improving the waterproof effect of the smart swimming goggles.

[0060] like Figures 9 to 11 , Figure 13 As shown, the first connector 71 includes a bracket 711 and a first guide post 712. There are two first guide posts 712, which are electrically connected to the circuit board 80. The bracket 711 is installed within the receiving cavity 53. A second through hole is provided between the receiving cavity 53 and the mounting cavity 511, connecting them. The first guide post 712 passes through the second through hole and is fixed in the second through hole by adhesive dispensing.

[0061] Furthermore, such as Figures 10 to 11 As shown, the headphone connection assembly 70 also includes a conductive line 73. The first guide post 712 is electrically connected to the circuit board 80 through the conductive line 73. In this embodiment, the bracket 711 has a receiving groove, in which the first guide post 712 is received. The conductive line 73 can be an FPC or a wire. The bracket 711 is used to prevent adhesive from seeping into the conductive line 73 during the dispensing and fixing process of the first guide post 712, which could lead to poor contact between the first guide post 712 and the conductive line 73.

[0062] Specifically, such as Figures 10 to 11 As shown, the first connector 71 also includes a baffle 713, which is disposed within the receiving groove and divides the receiving groove into a first segment and a second segment. It can be understood that, in Figure 10 In this design, the lower part is the first groove segment, and the upper part is the second groove segment. A baffle 713 has a first through hole 7131, through which a first guide post 712 passes, so that the baffle 713 limits and fixes the first guide post 712. The baffle 713 is used to prevent the fixing adhesive in the first groove segment from entering the second groove segment. In this embodiment, the connection between the first guide post 712 and the conductive line 73 is located within the second groove segment of the accommodating groove. This arrangement prevents the adhesive from penetrating into the conductive line 73 during the dispensing and fixing process of the first guide post 712.

[0063] In this embodiment, as Figures 10 to 11 As shown, the bracket 711 has first positioning grooves 7111 on both sides, extending horizontally. A pair of partitions are provided within the receiving cavity 53, forming a sealing cavity 58 between the partitions and the inner wall of the receiving cavity 53. The sealing cavity 58 can be a completely sealed chamber or a partially sealed chamber. A pair of matching positioning ribs are correspondingly provided on both sides of the sealing cavity 58. When the bracket 711 is inserted horizontally into the sealing cavity 58, the positioning ribs engage with the first positioning grooves 7111, thus limiting and fixing the bracket 711 to ensure its installation stability and prevent interference with the electrical connection of the first guide post 712 and the conductive line 73. Alternatively, the sealing cavity 58 can have first positioning grooves 7111, while the bracket 711 has positioning ribs on both sides; this can be selected according to actual needs. It is understood that the number of first positioning grooves 7111 and positioning ribs can be two or more, and this is not limited here.

[0064] In an optional embodiment, the receiving cavity 53 may not have a separate sealing cavity 58. In this case, the inner periphery of the receiving cavity 53, such as the upper and lower sides, is provided with a pair of matching positioning ribs. The bracket 711 is inserted into the receiving cavity 53 in the horizontal direction, at which time the positioning ribs are engaged with the first positioning groove 7111, thereby limiting and fixing the bracket 711 within the receiving cavity 53. Of course, the receiving cavity 53 may also have a first positioning groove 7111, while the upper and lower sides of the bracket 711 are respectively provided with positioning ribs, which can be selected according to actual needs.

[0065] Furthermore, such as Figure 10 As shown, the upper part of the bracket 711 is also provided with a second positioning groove 7112. The shape of the second positioning groove 7112 is adapted to a part of the conductive line 73. This part of the conductive line 73 is accommodated in the second positioning groove 7112 to achieve the limiting and fixing of the conductive line 73. Furthermore, when the sealing cavity 58 is a completely closed chamber, a clearance notch is also formed on the partition plate forming the sealing cavity 58 to avoid the conductive line 73. Specifically, the clearance notch can be a notch portion adapted to the width of the conductive line 73. The middle section of the conductive line 73 is embedded in the clearance notch, which not only avoids the conductive line 73 from interfering with other components, but also further limits and fixes the conductive line 73. Of course, the clearance notch can also be formed by the height of the partition plate forming the sealing cavity 58 being less than the depth of the accommodating cavity 53, which can be selected according to actual needs.

[0066] In this embodiment, as Figures 10 to 11 As shown, a positioning block 714 is provided in the receiving groove of the bracket 711. The conductive line 73 has a corresponding positioning notch 731. When the conductive line 73 extends into the receiving groove, the positioning block 714 is just accommodated in the positioning notch 731, which further limits and fixes the conductive line 73.

[0067] It is understood that the conductive line 73 is electrically connected to the first guide post 712. Specifically, the conductive line 73 has a connection hole, and the upper end of the first guide post 712 passes through the connection hole to achieve electrical connection. Furthermore, the connecting lug portion between the conductive line 73 and the first guide post 712 can be multi-layered to increase the thickness, thereby increasing the contact area with the first guide post 712 and ensuring the stability of the electrical connection.

[0068] In this embodiment, the mounting cavity 511 communicates with the bottom surface of the housing 51, so that the second connector 72 can extend into the mounting cavity 511. Figure 9 , Figures 12 to 13As shown, the second connector 72 includes a base 721, a boss 722, and a second guide post 723. The boss 722 protrudes from the base 721, and the second guide post 723 is disposed on the boss 722. The second connector 72 also includes a locking element, with locking holes 726 respectively provided at both ends of the base 721. Figure 6 and Figure 9 As shown, the mounting cavity 511 is provided with a mounting hole 514. The locking member passes through the locking hole 726 and extends into the mounting hole 514, thereby connecting and fixing the second connecting member 72 to the housing 51. Specifically, the locking member can be a screw, and the mounting hole 514 is a threaded hole to achieve threaded connection and fixation.

[0069] In this embodiment, the base 721 and the boss 722 are integrally formed. The shape of the mounting cavity 511 is adapted to the base 721 and the boss 722 so that the second connector 72 is installed exactly in the mounting cavity 511.

[0070] In this embodiment, the number of second guide posts 723 corresponds to the number of first guide posts 712, specifically, the first guide posts 712 and the second guide posts 723 are coaxially arranged vertically. The lower end of the first guide post 712, i.e., the contact end, passes through the second through hole and extends to the mounting cavity 511. When the second connector 72 is installed in the mounting cavity 511, the second guide post 723 contacts the first guide post 712 to conduct electricity, thereby realizing the electrical connection between the headphone assembly 60 and the circuit board 80.

[0071] like Figures 12 to 13 As shown, the boss 722 is provided with an annular groove 724, which is located on the outer periphery of the second guide post 723. Figure 9 As shown, the second connector 72 also includes a seal 725, which is fitted into the annular groove 724. Specifically, the seal 725 can be an annular rubber sealing ring. Further, as... Figure 6 As shown, a protruding ring 512 is provided inside the mounting cavity 511. The shape of the protruding ring 512 is adapted to the annular groove 724. When the second connector 72 is installed inside the mounting cavity 511, the protruding ring 512 extends into the annular groove 724 and abuts against the seal 725. The seal 725 undergoes radial compression deformation under the pressure of the protruding ring 512, allowing the seal 725 to tightly fit the outer surface of the protruding ring 512 and the inner wall of the annular groove 724, filling any tiny gaps that may exist between them. This effectively prevents water from entering the receiving cavity 53 and provides reliable sealing protection. Alternatively, the mounting cavity 511 can have an annular groove 724, and the boss 722 can have a protruding ring 512. In this case, the protruding ring 512 is located on the outer periphery of the second guide post 723. The choice can be made according to actual needs.

[0072] like Figure 12As shown, the second connector 72 also includes a guide post 728, which is disposed on one side of the base 721 or the boss 722. The guide post 728 extends vertically along the direction in which the second connector 72 extends into the mounting cavity 511. Correspondingly, as... Figure 6 As shown, the mounting cavity 511 has a guide groove 513 adapted to the guide post 728, used to determine the mounting direction of the second connector 72 relative to the first connector 71. When connecting the headphone assembly 60 to the side frame 50, the cooperation between the guide post 728 and the guide groove 513 effectively avoids the first guide post 712 and the second guide post 723 having the same polarity when they contact each other, ensuring the accuracy and stability of the connection and the stable transmission of audio signals. Alternatively, the base 721 or the boss 722 may have the guide groove 513, and the mounting cavity 511 may have the guide post 728; the choice can be made according to actual needs.

[0073] Furthermore, such as Figures 12 to 13 As shown, the second connector 72 also includes an earphone connection cable 727. One end of the earphone connection cable 727 is connected to the base 721, and the other end is connected to the earphone assembly 60 to transmit audio signals.

[0074] In this embodiment, the first guide post 712, the second guide post 723, and the conductive line 73 are all made of copper. Of course, other commonly used conductive metal materials can also be used, and the appropriate material can be selected according to actual needs.

[0075] like Figures 3 to 6 As shown, when the headphone assembly 60 is a bone conduction headphone, an adjustment assembly 100 is also provided at the bottom of the housing 51. The adjustment assembly 100 can flexibly adjust the wearing position of the bone conduction headphone according to the user's head shape and wearing habits to ensure the best sound conduction effect and improve wearing comfort. Specifically, the adjustment assembly 100 includes an adjustment groove extending along the length direction of the housing 51. The width of the adjustment groove is adapted to the width of the connecting end of the headphone assembly 60. The connecting end of the headphone assembly 60 is adjustablely positioned within the adjustment groove, allowing for front-to-back position adjustment. Multiple adjustment holes are provided within the adjustment groove, spaced apart along the length direction of the adjustment groove. One or more through holes are correspondingly provided at the connecting end of the headphone assembly 60. The user first moves the connecting end of the headphone assembly 60 to the corresponding position within the adjustment groove according to their needs, aligning the through holes with the adjustment holes. Fasteners pass through the through holes and extend into the adjustment holes to connect with the housing 51, thereby fixing the headphone assembly 60 to the housing 51. In this embodiment, the fastener can be a screw, and the adjustment hole can be a threaded hole. Further, as... Figure 8As shown, to provide installation space for the screw, an adjustment cavity 59 is also provided at the bottom of the housing 51, which is isolated from the receiving cavity 53. The adjustment cavity 59 corresponds to the adjustment slot of the adjustment assembly 100, and the threaded hole communicates with the adjustment cavity 59 so that the screw can be inserted into the adjustment cavity 59. Of course, the adjustment assembly 100 can also be of other structural forms, such as magnetic attraction or snap-fit, which can be selected according to actual needs.

[0076] like Figure 14 As shown, when the headphone assembly 60 is an air-conductive headphone, the aforementioned adjustment component 100 is unnecessary. The headphone assembly 60 is connected to the side frame 50 only through the headphone connection component 70. Specifically, in this embodiment, the air-conductive headphone is an in-ear type, connected to the headphone connection component 70 via an electrical connection cable. This makes the headphone assembly 60 flexible to wear, allowing users to easily adjust it at any time, thus improving the wearing experience of the headphone assembly 60.

[0077] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 8 As shown, one or more buttons 54 are provided on the side frame 50. The buttons 54 are electrically connected to the circuit board 80 and are used to control various functions of the smart swimming goggles, such as power on / off, play / pause music, switch music tracks, and adjust volume. The buttons 54 are conventional electrical components and will not be described in detail here. Specifically, a through-hole is provided on the top of the housing 51. The buttons 54 are installed in the through-hole and extend into the receiving cavity 53, where they are electrically connected to the circuit board 80. It is understood that a waterproof structure, such as a sealing ring, is also provided at the through-hole to prevent water from entering the receiving cavity 53.

[0078] Furthermore, such as Figures 5 to 6 As shown, for convenient charging, the side frame 50 is also provided with a charging interface 55, which is electrically connected to the battery. The smart swimming goggles also include a charging assembly 90, which includes a charging connector 91 and a charging cable. The charging end of the charging cable is a conventional interface such as USB or Type-C. The charging connector 91 is electrically connected to the charging interface 55 when the smart swimming goggles need to be charged. In this embodiment, the charging interface 55 is a magnetic charging interface, which uses magnetic force to automatically attract the charging connector 91, making the charging process more convenient. Users only need to bring the charging connector 91 close to the charging interface 55 to achieve automatic alignment and connection, without the need to laboriously find the insertion position as with conventional charging interfaces.

[0079] In an optional embodiment, the swimming goggle body of this application does not require the side frame 50. Specifically, the swimming goggle body includes a frame 10, lenses 20, a nose bridge 30, and goggles 40. The frame 10 has an internal accommodating space for accommodating at least a portion of the electronic components. The frame 10 has a mounting cavity for mounting the earphone assembly 60, and the mounting cavity communicates with the outside. Specifically, the internal accommodating space of the frame 10 is arranged along the periphery of the frame 10. In this case, considering the weight balance of the two frames 10 and wearing comfort, the circuit board 80 and the battery can be located in the two frames 10 respectively. Similarly, the nose bridge 30 has a hollow channel so that circuit connection wires can pass through the nose bridge 30 to connect the electronic components in the two frames 10.

[0080] Similar to ordinary swimming goggles, the smart swimming goggles of this application are primarily secured to the head using a strap 110. In this optional embodiment, both ends of the strap 110 are connected to the two side frames 10. Specifically, each of the two frames 10 has a connecting hole at its far end for connecting the strap 110. This design simplifies the overall structure of the smart swimming goggles, reduces overall weight, and improves the wearing experience.

[0081] Furthermore, it is understandable that the aforementioned button 54 and charging port 55 are all located in the frame 10, and will not be described in detail here.

[0082] As can be seen from the above description, the above embodiments of the present invention achieve the following technical effects: This application provides an earphone connection component 70 for connecting the swimming goggle body and the earphone component 60 of the smart swimming goggles. The earphone connection component 70 includes a first connector 71 and a second connector 72. The first connector 71 is disposed in the swimming goggle body, and the second connector 72 is connected to the earphone component 60. The swimming goggle body has an installation cavity 511, which communicates with the outside. The second connector 72 is sealed and installed in the installation cavity 511 to be detachably connected to the first connector 71. In this way, the earphone connection component 70 not only connects the earphone component 60 to the swimming goggle body and realizes electrical signal transmission, but also allows users to flexibly and conveniently replace the earphone component 60 through a detachable split design, thereby meeting different usage needs and facilitating the repair and replacement of the earphone component 60, greatly improving the user experience. Furthermore, by sealing the second connector 72 with the mounting cavity 511, the headphone assembly 60 can be flexibly and conveniently replaced, while the headphone connector 70 has a good sealing and waterproof effect, thereby effectively preventing water from entering the goggle body through the mounting cavity 511 and damaging the electronic components, ensuring the normal use of the smart goggles.
