[0001] This application relates to the field of electronic device technology, and in particular to headphone charging cases. Background Technology

[0002] Modern headphone charging cases consist of a casing and a battery. The battery can be secured inside the casing using screws, glue, or clips, making it inconvenient to remove and replace. The casing may include a sliding battery cover that exposes the battery. This cover is prone to accidental contact or unintended external force, which can lead to accidental exposure, damage, or detachment of the battery. Summary of the Invention

[0003] Based on this, this application provides an earphone charging case that is easy to use.

[0004] The earphone charging case of this application includes a shell, electronic components, and a movable component. The shell includes an accommodating space. The electronic components are detachably disposed within the accommodating space. The movable component is movably connected to the shell and includes a connected hinge and a cover. When the movable component is in a closed state, engaging with the shell to cover the accommodating space, the movable component first slides relative to the shell along a first direction and then moves relative to the shell along a second direction, causing the cover to disengage from the shell and the hinge to rotate relative to the shell, thereby opening the movable component. The first direction is different from the second direction.

[0005] In one embodiment, the first direction is perpendicular to the second direction.

[0006] In one embodiment, the second direction is the direction of gravity.

[0007] In one embodiment, the cover plate includes a connected cover plate body and a locking member, and the outer shell includes a connecting groove. When the movable member is in the closed state, the locking member is located at the first end of the connecting groove, and when the movable member slides along a first direction, the locking member is located at the second end of the connecting groove.

[0008] In one embodiment, the connecting trench includes a first trench and a second trench, the first trench extending along a first direction and including a first end and a second end, and the second trench extending along a second direction and connected to the second end.

[0009] In one embodiment, the depth of the first trench is greater than the depth of the second trench.

[0010] In one embodiment, the cover plate further includes a groove, and the housing includes a protrusion that is located within the groove when the movable element is in the closed state.

[0011] In one embodiment, the rotating shaft includes a rod and a connecting part, the rod passing through the connecting part, the connecting part being connected to a cover plate, the rotation axis of the rod being perpendicular to a first direction and a second direction, and the rod being movably connected to the outer casing.

[0012] In one embodiment, when the movable part is in the closed state, the pivot is located inside the housing, and when the movable part is in the open state, part of the connecting portion is located outside the housing and the rod is located inside the housing.

[0013] In one embodiment, the housing includes a connecting channel, to which a pivot is movably connected. The connecting channel includes a first channel and a second channel connected together, the first channel extending in a first direction and the second channel extending in a second direction.

[0014] In one embodiment, the housing includes a connector and an inner wall surface, the connector and the inner wall surface together forming a connection channel, and when the movable part is in the open state, the rotating shaft abuts against one end of the connector.

[0015] In one embodiment, the earphone charging case further includes a fastener, the cover includes a first connection hole, the outer shell includes a second connection hole, the fastener passes through the first connection hole, and when the movable part is in the closed state, the fastener is connected to the second connection hole.

[0016] In one embodiment, a portion of the fastener has an external thread and the second connecting hole has an internal thread. When the moving part is in the closed state, the external thread engages with the internal thread, and the external thread disengages from the internal thread before the moving part slides in a first direction.

[0017] Based on the above, the movable component of the earphone charging case of this application can move along opposite first and second directions to switch from a closed state to an open state, thereby preventing the movable component from being accidentally opened relative to the outer shell due to accidental contact or unexpected external force, thus exposing the electronic components. In the closed state, the movable component covers the accommodating space to protect the electronic components. In the open state, the cover of the movable component detaches from the outer shell, exposing the electronic components, facilitating the removal or replacement of the electronic components. This improves the reliability and ease of use of the earphone charging case. Attached Figure Description

[0073] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of an earphone charging case according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 for Figure 1 A magnified view of part A1 of the earphone charging case. Figure 3 An exploded view of the earphone charging case. Figure 4 for Figure 3 A schematic diagram of the outer shell from another perspective. Figure 5 for Figure 4 A magnified view of a portion of the outer casing at point A2. Please also refer to... Figures 1 to 5 The earphone charging case 100 includes a housing 110, an electronic component 120, and a movable member 130. The housing 110 includes an accommodating space P1. The electronic component 120 is detachably disposed in the accommodating space P1. The movable member 130 is movably connected to the housing 110 and includes a connected hinge 131 and a cover plate 132. In this embodiment, the earphone charging case 100 is, for example, a charging case for wireless earphones (not shown), and the electronic component 120 is, for example, a battery, but is not limited thereto.

[0074] When the movable part 130 is in the closed state M1, engaging with the outer casing 110 to cover the accommodating space P1, the movable part 130 can first be forced to slide relative to the outer casing 110 along the first direction d1 and then moved relative to the outer casing 110 along the second direction d2, causing the cover plate 132 to disengage from the outer casing 110 and the rotating shaft 131 to rotate relative to the outer casing 110, thereby putting the movable part 130 in the open state M2. Figure 8 The first direction d1 is different from the second direction d2, and the first direction d1 may be perpendicular to the second direction d2. The second direction d2 is the direction of gravity, but is not limited to it. When the movable part 130 is in the open state M2, the electronic components 120 disposed in the accommodating space P1 are exposed for easy disassembly or replacement, thereby improving the ease of use of the earphone charging case 100.

[0075] In this embodiment, the movable member 130 of the earphone charging case 100 moves relative to the outer shell 110 in two opposite directions, switching between a closed state M1 and an open state M2. This prevents the movable member 130 from being accidentally opened relative to the outer shell 110 due to accidental contact or unexpected external force, thus improving the reliability of the earphone charging case 100. The earphone charging case 100 of this embodiment has a simple structure and is easy to use.

[0076] like Figures 3 to 5As shown, the outer casing 110 includes a first outer casing 111 and a second outer casing 112. A movable member 130 is movably connected to one side S1 of the first outer casing 111, and the second outer casing 112 is pivotally connected to the other side S2 of the first outer casing 111. A wireless headset can enter the first outer casing 111 from side S2, with a receiving space P1 located on side S1. The opening OP of the receiving space P1 is located on side S1. The outer casing 110 also includes a connecting channel P2, a connector 113, and an inner wall surface C1. The connector 113 is located on the first outer casing 111 and together with the inner wall surface C1 forms the connecting channel P2. The connecting channel P2 includes a first channel P21 and a second channel P22 connected together. The first channel P21 extends along a first direction d1, and the second channel P22 extends along a second direction d2, forming an L-shape. The pivot 131 of the movable member 130 is movably connected to the connecting channel P2. When the moving part 130 is subjected to an external force, the rotating shaft 131 moves within the connecting channel P2.

[0077] One end E3 of the connector 113 is hook-shaped, and the rotating shaft 131 can enter the connecting channel P2 from the hook-shaped end E3 of the connector 113. The rotating shaft 131 can push the connector 113 to deform and move into the connecting channel P2. When the rotating shaft 131 moves along the second direction d2, the end E3 of the connector 113 can stop the rotating shaft 131 to prevent the rotating shaft 131 (moving part 130) from completely detaching from the housing 110.

[0078] The housing 110 also includes a connecting groove 114 and a protrusion 115. The connecting groove 114 is formed in the first housing 111 and located within the accommodating space P1. The connecting groove 114 includes a first groove 116 and a second groove 117. The first groove 116 extends along a first direction d1 and includes opposing first ends E1 and second ends E2. The second groove 117 extends along a second direction d2 and connects to the second end E2. The connecting groove 114 is L-shaped, and the protrusion 115 connects to the first housing 111 and is located at the first end E1 of the first groove 116. The depth W1 of the first groove 116 in the direction perpendicular to the first direction d1 and the second direction d2 is greater than the depth W2 of the second groove 117 in the direction perpendicular to the first direction d1 and the second direction d2.

[0079] like Figure 5As shown, the pivot 131 of the movable member 130 includes a rod 131a and a connecting portion 131b, and the cover plate 132 includes a connected cover plate body 133, a locking member 134, and a groove 135. The rod 131a of the pivot 131 passes through the connecting portion 131b and is movably connected to the connecting channel P2 of the outer casing 110. The connecting portion 131b is connected to the cover plate body 133 of the cover plate 132. The rotation axis L of the rod 131a is perpendicular to the first direction d1 and the second direction d2. The movable member 130 can rotate relative to the outer casing 110 through the rod 131a. The cover plate body 133 can cover the opening OP of the outer casing 110. The locking member 134 is hook-shaped, and the hook-shaped portion of the locking member 134 can extend into the connecting groove 114 and engage with the outer casing 110. The groove 135 is located on the locking member 134. The hook-shaped portion of the engaging member 134 can move within the connecting groove 114, thereby engaging or disengaging the groove 135 with the protrusion 115 of the outer casing 110 to provide a tactile feel. In this embodiment, there are four engaging members 134, which are connected in pairs to both sides of the cover plate body 133, but this is not the only embodiment.

[0080] like Figure 2 As shown, the earphone charging case 100 may optionally also include a fastener 140. The cover 132 of the movable part 130 correspondingly includes a first connecting hole 136, and the outer shell 110 correspondingly includes a second connecting hole 118 and a receiving channel P3. The first connecting hole 136 is located in the cover body 133, and the connection portion 131b with the pivot 131 is located at opposite ends of the cover body 133 in the first direction d1. The fastener 140 passes through the first connecting hole 136. A portion of the fastener 140 has an external thread 141, and a portion of the fastener 140 may be a smooth cylinder. The first connecting hole 136 includes a first portion 137 and a second portion 138 connected together. The diameter R1 of the first portion 137 is slightly smaller than the outer diameter R2 of the external thread 141, and a diameter R3 of the second portion 138 is larger than the outer diameter R2 of the external thread 141. The receiving channel P3 communicates with the second connecting hole 118 and extends along the first direction d1. The second connecting hole 118 has an internal thread 119, and the external thread 141 of the fastener 140 can engage with the internal thread 119. The portion of the fastener 140 with the external thread 141 can be squeezed into the second groove 117. When the fastener 140 is disengaged from the second connecting hole 118, the external thread 141 can abut against the bottom surface C3 of the second portion 138 to prevent the fastener 140 from completely disengaging from the cover plate 132 of the movable part 130.

[0081] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, when the movable part 130 is in the closed state M1, the engaging part 134 of the movable part 130 is slidably engaged with the connecting groove 114 of the housing 110, and the hook-shaped portion of the engaging part 134 is located at the first end E1 of the connecting groove 114. The movable part 130 is stably connected to the housing 110, and the protrusion 115 of the housing 110 is located in the groove 135 and engages with the groove 135. The rod 131a of the rotating shaft 131 is located at the end of the first channel P21 of the connecting channel P2 away from the second channel P22. The rod 131a and the connecting part 131b of the rotating shaft 131 are located inside the housing 110. The cover body 133 of the cover plate 132 covers the opening OP of the housing 110 to prevent the electronic components 120 in the accommodating space P1 from being exposed. In the closed state M1, the first connecting hole 136 of the movable part 130 is aligned with the second connecting hole 118. At this time, the portion of the fastener 140 with the external thread 141 can engage with the internal thread 119 of the second connecting hole 118, making the movable part 130 more stably connected to the outer shell 110. The outer surface C4 of the movable part 130 and the outer surface C2 of the outer shell 110 form a smooth curve to maintain the aesthetic appearance of the earphone charging case 100.

[0082] Figure 6A for Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the moving parts under stress. Figure 6B for Figure 6A A magnified view of section A3 of the earphone charging case. Please also refer to... Figure 1 , Figure 6A and Figure 6B The moving part 130 is subjected to force along the first direction d1 and from Figure 1 Moved to Figure 6A Before the fastener 140 is positioned, it is first subjected to force to disengage the external thread 141 from the internal thread 119. The external thread 141 abuts against the bottom surface C3 of the second portion 138 of the first connecting hole 136, but is not limited thereto. In an embodiment not shown, the fastener 140 can be completely withdrawn from the second connecting hole 118 of the housing 110 after being subjected to force.

[0083] Next, the movable member 130 can be slid relative to the housing 110 along the first direction d1 under force. During the sliding of the movable member 130, the groove 135 moves away from the protrusion 115 of the housing 110, creating a snapping sensation. The hook-shaped portion of the engaging member 134 slides within the first groove 116 of the connecting groove 114, and slides from the first end E1 to the second end E2. The pivot 131 slides within the first channel P21 of the connecting channel P2, approaching the second channel P22. A portion of the cover body 133 (cover 132) of the movable member 130 protrudes from the outer surface C2 of the housing 110 in the first direction d1 for subsequent operation. A portion of the fastener 140 moves from the second connecting hole 118 of the housing 110 into the receiving channel P3. At this time, the cover body 133 still covers the opening OP of the housing 110, and the electronic component 120 in the receiving space P1 is still unable to leave the receiving space P1.

[0084] Figure 7 and Figure 8 yes Figure 6A A diagram showing the moving parts under stress. Please also refer to... Figure 6A , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The movable member 130 can then be moved relative to the housing 110 by another external force along the second direction d2. The portion of the cover plate 132 protruding from the outer surface C2 of the housing 110 can be subjected to force, causing the movable member 130 to first move from... Figure 6A The position moves along the second direction d2 to Figure 7 The position. Because the depth W2 of the second groove 117 connecting groove 114 is less than the depth W1 of the first groove 116 ( Figure 5 When the movable part 130 is moved under force, the user only needs to apply a small force to disengage the engaging part 134 from the connecting groove 114. At this time, the engaging part 134 slides along the second groove 117 of the connecting groove 114 and disengages from the connecting groove 114 from the end of the second groove 117 away from the first groove 116. The rotating shaft 131 moves away from the first channel P21 within the second channel P22 of the connecting channel P2. The hook-shaped end E3 of the connecting part 113 stops the movement of the rotating shaft 131 in the second direction d2.

[0085] Since the second direction d2 is the direction of gravity, after the engaging part 134 (cover plate 132) of the movable part 130 is disengaged from the outer shell 110, the rotating shaft 131 (rod 131a) of the movable part 130 rotates around the axis L under the action of gravity. Figure 3 The pivot point rotates relative to the housing 110. The moving part 130 automatically moves from... Figure 7 Rotate the position to Figure 8The position is changed to the open state M2. In the open state M2, the engaging member 134 of the movable member 130 disengages from the connecting groove 114 of the housing 110. A portion of the connecting portion 131b of the rotating shaft 131 is located outside the housing 110, and the rod 131a of the rotating shaft 131 is located inside the housing 110 and abuts against the hook-shaped end E3 of the connector 113. The cover body 133 of the cover plate 132 is away from the opening OP of the accommodating space P1, thus exposing the electronic component 120. The user can easily remove or replace the electronic component 120. In an embodiment not shown, the second direction d2 may be opposite to the direction of gravity, and the user can manually rotate the cover plate 132 after the engaging member 134 disengages from the housing 110 to switch the movable member 130 to the open state M2.

[0086] When you want to switch the moving part 130 from the open state M2 to the closed state M1 ( Figure 1 When the moving part 130 is subjected to force first, it moves around the rod 131a of the rotating shaft 131 as the axis. Figure 8 Rotate the position to Figure 7 The position. Then, the movable part 130 can be subjected to a force opposite to the second direction d2 and move from... Figure 7 Moved to Figure 6A The position. During the movement of the movable part 130, the rotating shaft 131 moves from the second channel P22 to the first channel P21, and the engaging part 134 of the movable part 130 enters the second groove 117 of the connecting groove 114, and moves towards the second end E2 of the first groove 116 to engage with the connecting groove 114. Then, the movable part 130 can be subjected to a force opposite to the first direction d1 and move from... Figure 6A Moved to Figure 1 The position of the movable part 130. During the movement of the movable part 130, the pivot 131 moves away from the second channel P22, and the engaging part 134 moves towards the first end E1 of the first groove 116. The groove 135 on the engaging part 134 engages with the protrusion 115 in the connecting groove 114, producing a click-like feel and making the movable part 130 stably connected to the outer shell 110. At this point, the movable part 130 switches to the closed state M1. At this time, the external thread 141 of the fastener 140 can engage with the internal thread 119 of the outer shell 110, so that the movable part 130 is more stably connected to the outer shell 110. Thus, the movable part 130 of the earphone charging case 100 can move relative to the outer shell 110 through two different movement paths, switching between the closed state M1 and the open state M2.

[0087] In summary, the movable component of the earphone charging case of this application can move along opposite first and second directions to switch from a closed state to an open state, thereby preventing the electronic components from being exposed due to accidental contact or unexpected external force opening the component relative to the outer shell. In the closed state, the movable component covers the accommodating space to protect the electronic components. In the open state, the cover of the movable component detaches from the outer shell, exposing the electronic components for easy disassembly or replacement. This improves the reliability and ease of use of the earphone charging case.
