[0019] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the scheme in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0020] It should be noted that similar reference numerals and letters refer to similar items in the following drawings, and therefore, once an item is defined in one drawing, it does not require further definition and explanation in subsequent drawings.

[0021] The utility model provides a rotatable earphone ear hook, referring to Figure 1-3 , including an ear hook 2 arranged on an earphone housing 1, a cylindrical connecting portion 21 is provided at the front end of the ear hook 2, an outer wall surface of the connecting portion 21 is provided with external teeth 22, a mounting hole 11 adapted to the connecting portion 21 is provided on the earphone housing 1, an inner wall surface of the mounting hole 11 is provided with an inner gear ring 12 meshing with the external teeth 22, and limiting strips 211 are provided on both sides of the connecting portion 21, and the limiting strips 211 divide the connecting portion 21 into two arc-shaped rotating blocks 212.

[0022] The rotatable ear hook of the utility model is an accessory of an ear hook type earphone, which is installed above an earphone housing 1 when in use, and is used to hang the earphone body on the ear, so that the earphone is convenient to use, will not fall off, and has good stability. It mainly includes an ear hook 2 and a connecting part 21 at its front end. A mounting hole 11 and an inner gear ring 12 matched with the connecting part 21 are arranged on the top of the earphone shell 1. When the ear hook is installed, the connecting part 21 is inserted into the mounting hole 11 and stuck to prevent the ear hook from falling off; by arranging external teeth 22 on the outer wall surface of the connecting part 21 and arranging an inner gear ring 12 in the mounting hole 11, the connecting part 21 and the earphone shell 1 are kept in a matched connection with the internal and external teeth, ensuring that the ear hook can achieve a rotation effect. When installed, it fits more closely with the wearer's ear canal, with a better experience and stronger versatility; by arranging limit strips 211 on both sides of the connecting part 21, and the limit strips 211 divide the connecting part 21 into two arc-shaped rotating blocks 212, wherein the two limit strips 211 are symmetrically arranged to limit the rotation angle of the ear hook and prevent the ear hook from rotating 360°, which affects the use.

[0023] In a preferred embodiment, referring to Figure 1 and 2The outer teeth 22 of the rotatable ear hook are arranged along the vertical direction of the outer wall of the rotating block 212. By arranging the outer teeth 22 in the vertical direction of the outer wall of the rotating block 212, the ear hook 2 can be rotated above the earphone housing 1 to meet the needs of different ear sizes. When it is necessary to wear it, the ear hook is rotated away from the earphone housing, and then the ear hook is hung on the ear. Finally, the ear hook is rotated to a position close to the earphone housing, and at the same time, the ear is stuck in the ear hook, and the wearing is completed.

[0024] In a preferred embodiment, referring to Figure 1 and 2 The rotation range of the rotatable earphone ear hook is 0°-180°. The ear hook rotates in cooperation with the connecting portion 21, the outer teeth 22, the mounting hole 11, and the inner gear ring 12, and the rotation angle range is 0°-180°. The two sides of the ear hook are limited by the limit strip 211. When the ear hook rotates to 180°, the ear hook will not continue to rotate due to the action of the limit strip 211.

[0025] In a preferred embodiment, referring to Figure 1-3 The front end of the ear hook 2 of the rotatable earphone ear hook and the rear end of the connecting part 21 are provided with an annular groove, and a clamping block 111 adapted to the annular groove is provided in the mounting hole 11. The clamping block 111 is clamped in the annular groove (not shown in the figure) during installation, and the clamping block 111 can rotate in the annular groove but will not fall out, so as to ensure the stability of the installation of the ear hook 2. It should be noted that the connection method of the annular groove and the clamping block 111 is already relatively common in the prior art, so it will not be repeated here, and the ear hook can also adopt other clamping methods.

[0026] In a preferred embodiment, referring to Figure 1 and 2 The connecting portion 21 of the rotatable earphone ear hook 2 is provided with a circular hole groove 213 in the middle, a limiting column 112 adapted to the circular hole groove 213 is provided in the middle of the mounting hole 11, and a reinforcing plate 214 is provided outside the circular hole groove 213. By providing the circular hole groove 213 in the middle of the connecting portion 21, which is adapted to the limiting column 112 in the mounting hole 11, the stability of the installation of the ear hook 2 is ensured. When the ear hook 2 rotates, the limiting column 112 also rotates in the circular hole groove 213; by providing the reinforcing plate 214 outside the circular hole groove 213, the performance of the circular hole groove is enhanced to ensure that it will not be easily broken or damaged.

[0027] In a preferred embodiment, referring to Figure 1 and 2The connection part of the rotatable earphone ear hook is detachably connected or fixedly connected to the ear hook. The connection part 21 on the ear hook 2 is fixedly connected or detachably connected to it. When it is set to a detachable structure, when the connection part 21 is damaged, the connection part 21 can be directly replaced; when it is set to a fixed structure, when the connection part 21 is damaged, the entire ear hook 2 can be directly replaced, and it can be selected according to needs.

[0028] The utility model also provides a headset, referring to Figure 4 , including the above-mentioned rotatable earphone ear hook 2, the ear hook 2 is connected to the top of the earphone housing 1. The above embodiment describes the specific structure and technical effects of the rotatable earphone ear hook, and the earphone of this embodiment refers to the structure and also has its technical effects.

[0029] The above description is only a partial or preferred embodiment of the present invention. Neither the text nor the drawings can limit the scope of protection of the present invention. All equivalent structural changes made by using the contents of the present invention specification and drawings under the overall concept of the present invention, or direct / indirect application in other related technical fields are included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
