Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of smart earrings, and in particular to a smart earring with audio playback function and a method thereof. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of smart wearable devices, combining audio playback functions with everyday accessories has become an important innovation direction in the consumer electronics field. These smart earrings aim to provide users with a new type of product that combines fashion aesthetics with a convenient audio experience. In order to keep the product small and beautiful, its built-in battery capacity is often extremely limited, which leads to the need to frequently remove the entire smart earring and charge it, seriously affecting the user experience. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is: a smart earring with audio playback function, including a speaker component and a power component, and an ear hook structure connected between the speaker component and the power component, wherein the ear hook structure is provided with a conductive wire, and both ends of the ear hook structure are provided with a fixing part and a snap-fit ​​part.

[0004] The speaker assembly includes a main housing, a secondary housing, a circuit board, a speaker, and a dustproof mesh. The main housing and the secondary housing are connected together to a fixing part. The main housing is connected to the circuit board, and the secondary housing is connected to the speaker electrically connected to the circuit board. A dustproof mesh for sound output is snapped into the inner side of the secondary housing.

[0005] The power supply assembly includes a battery housing, an adapter, and a battery pack. The adapter is snapped into the battery housing, and the battery pack is disposed between the battery housing and the adapter. The battery housing is detachably connected to the adapter via a snap-fit ​​part, and the battery pack is electrically connected to the circuit board via conductive wires.

[0006] Using the above technical solution, the power component is detachably connected to the ear hook structure through the snap-fit ​​part, making it easy to replace the battery shell and the built-in battery pack and charge them separately, improving the convenience of battery life. The speaker component and the power component are fixed by the fixing part and the snap-fit ​​part at both ends of the ear hook structure, making the weight distribution more balanced. The curved design that conforms to the shape of the ear provides a stable wearing experience and reduces the risk of falling off during exercise.

[0007] A further embodiment of the present invention is that the snap-fit ​​portion includes a positioning ring, a steering groove disposed on the outside of the positioning ring, and a locking block disposed on the steering groove, and the adapter is provided with a circular cavity and a limiting block corresponding to the positioning ring and the steering groove.

[0008] Furthermore, the battery casing has an inner cavity for accommodating the battery pack, and stepped surfaces are provided on both sides of the inner cavity. The adapter has retaining strips extending into the inner cavity on both sides, and the retaining strips are engaged with the battery casing through the stepped surfaces.

[0009] Furthermore, the top of the battery pack is provided with a contact point one, and the snap-fit ​​part is located inside the positioning ring and is provided with a contact point two corresponding to the contact point one. The contact point two is electrically connected to the conductive line.

[0010] Using the above technical solution, the battery assembly is connected to an external power source and charged through contact two. During installation, the power assembly and the ear hook structure are connected by the axial insertion of the positioning ring and the cavity, the circumferential rotation of the limiting block and the turning groove, and finally the locking block fixes the assembly and makes the two pairs of contacts one and two overlap. The locking block produces a clear locking feel. The user can install the power assembly by pushing, rotating and locking the assembly. The installation can be completed without complicated tools.
