[0051] In addition, in the description of the present application, the terms "first", "second", etc. are only used to distinguish the description and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0052] In one embodiment, the reference Figure 1The present invention provides an open-ear earphone, comprising: two earphones 1 and a connecting wire 2, wherein the two earphones 1 are respectively provided with a sound-emitting part and a connecting component; both ends of the connecting wire 2 are respectively connected to the two earphones 1; when the connecting components of the two earphones 1 are adapted and connected, the open-ear earphone can be stored in a bracelet state for wearing on the wrist; when the two earphones 1 are separated from each other, the two earphones 1 can be respectively worn on both sides of the wearer's ears, so that the sound-emitting part faces the wearer's external auditory canal.
[0053] In this embodiment, it has dual forms of a bracelet and earphones. When in a rolled-up state, it can be worn on the wrist as a bracelet, which is easy to carry; when the two earphones 1 are in a separated state, they can be worn on the ears. The earphones 1 adopt a non-in-ear sound-emitting structure, which can avoid the situation where the user ignores external sounds and causes accidents due to the sound-emitting part extending too deep into the user's ear. At the same time, it can avoid ear damage caused by long-term wearing of the earphones 1. The earphones 1 do not plug into the ear canal and are comfortable to wear.
[0054] In one embodiment, the reference Figure 2 The earphone 1 includes an earphone body 11, and both ends of the connecting wire 2 are respectively connected to the two earphone bodies 11. The connecting wire 2 includes a first inner core and a first wire sleeve wrapped around the outside of the first inner core, so that the two ends of the connecting wire 2 can be bent to form an ear hook portion with the same shape as the outer auricle.

[0055] Specifically, the ear-hook open-ear headphones have an oval-like structure when rolled up, which conforms to the shape of the wrist, for example, the size is 65*54mm. The connecting cable 2 has a straight length of 200-400mm, which conforms to the head size. The diameter of the memory wire is 0.6-0.8mm. A wire diameter that is too thick will be difficult to wear, and a wire diameter that is too thin will have poor holding force and easily fall off when worn.
[0056] Further, see the attached manual Figure 2 、 Figure 7The open-ear headphones also include an expansion component 3, which is fixed to the connecting line 2. The connecting line 2 is provided with a wire, and the expansion component 3 is electrically connected to the two earphones 1 through the wire.

[0059] In this embodiment, the ear hook portion 12 is made of shape memory material, which can be configured into a shape that matches the user's ear after bending and twisting. In this way, the ear hook portion 12 of the earphone 1 can remain stable between the ear 4 when worn.
[0060] In another embodiment, the reference Figures 3 to 8 The ear hook 12 includes a second inner core and a second wire sleeve wrapped around the outer surface of the second inner core. The second inner core is a rigid structure, such as hard plastic or wire, and is bent to form a structure that conforms to the shape of the outer ear. The connecting cable 2 is a flexible cord made of a flexible material. This flexible material makes the neck hook portion of the open-ear headphones lighter and more compact, reducing the user experience caused by an overly heavy neck hook portion.
[0061] Furthermore, the earphone body 11 and the earhook 12 are rotatably connected, allowing the earphone body 11 to be worn at an adjustable angle. The earphone body 11 and the earhook 12 are connected via a hinge, allowing the earphone body 11 to be worn at an adjustable angle to accommodate people with different ear shapes. The earphone body 11 and the earhook 12 are preferably connected via a damping hinge, allowing the earphone body 11 and the earhook 12 to rotate and stop at any angle, improving the user experience.
[0062] Furthermore, the open-ear headphones further include an expansion component 3, which is fixed to the connecting cable 2. The connecting cable 2 includes a wire, and the expansion component 3 is electrically connected to the two earphones 1 via the wire. The expansion component 3 is provided with a charging port 31 for charging the expansion component 3. The charging port 31 can be configured as a USB port.
[0063] Furthermore, the expansion component 3 includes a charging device and a storage device. The charging device is used to power the earphones 1, which can provide extended battery life for the earphones 1, effectively reducing the weight of the earphones and improving the user experience. The earphones 1 are connected to the storage device and can play the information stored in the storage device. When the earphones are not connected to the expansion component 3, they can be used as ordinary Bluetooth earphones. When connected to the expansion component 3, they can play songs, novels, and other content stored in the expansion component 3.
[0064] In one embodiment, the reference Figure 4 、 Figure 5 The ear hook 12 has a plug 121 at one end away from the earphone body 11. A wire is provided inside the ear hook 12, and the plug 121 is electrically connected to the earphone body 11 via the wire. The connection cable 2 has interfaces 21 at each end, and the expansion assembly 3 is electrically connected to the two interfaces 21 via wires. The plug 121 is detachably connected to the corresponding interface 21.
[0065] Specifically, the plug 121 is a cylindrical structure, and a circular hole 1211 is provided at the center of the end of the plug 121. The positive pole of the wire connected to the earphone body 1 is provided in the circular hole 1211, and the negative pole of the wire connected to the earphone body 1 is provided on the cylindrical surface of the plug 121. The plug 121 is adapted to be inserted into the interface 21, and the positive and negative poles of the wire connected to the expansion component 3 are provided at corresponding positions in the interface 21. After the expansion component 3 is connected to the earphone 1, it can power the earphone 1. The charging pin of the earphone 1 is provided at the end of the ear hook portion 12, with the positive pole in the center of the circular hole 1211 and the negative pole on the cylindrical surface. This arrangement can make the ear hook portion 12 as thin as possible, which is conducive to wearing comfort. The connection points of the interface 21 are correspondingly provided at the center and side wall of the circular hole. The ear hook portion 12 and the connecting line 2 can be connected by threads or snaps to ensure a reliable connection and convenient disassembly.
[0066] It should be pointed out that the electrical connection method between the expansion component 3 and the headset 1 is explained in accordance with the drawings in the specification. In actual use, other connection structures, such as USB connector structure, etc., can also be adopted. This is only for better explanation of the present invention and should not constitute a limitation to the present invention.
[0067] In one embodiment, the reference Figure 6 The earphone body 11 includes a shell 111 and a mainboard 112, a battery 113 and a speaker 114 arranged in the shell 111. The mainboard 112 is electrically connected to the battery 113 and the speaker 114 respectively. The connecting line 2 is connected to one end of the shell 111. The speaker 114 is arranged toward the sound-emitting part. The speaker 114 can be a sound-emitting hole or a sound-emitting port, etc. In order to reduce the discomfort caused by the in-ear structure of the existing bracelet earphones, a non-in-ear sound-emitting structure is adopted in this embodiment. Air conduction technology or an external sound-emitting structure can be adopted, and both ears are open during use. The non-in-ear sound-emitting structure avoids the accidental situation of the user ignoring external sounds during exercise due to the existing in-ear structure being too deep into the ear, by placing the sound-emitting part of the earphone directly against the ear instead of extending into the ear. It can also avoid damage to the ears caused by wearing earphones for a long time.
[0068] Furthermore, the connecting components on the two earphones 1 are arranged at the end of the housing 111 away from the connecting line 2. Alternatively, the connecting component on one earphone 1 is arranged at the bottom of the housing 111, and the connecting component on the other earphone 1 is arranged at the top of the housing 111, and the two earphones 1 are stacked after being connected.
[0069] Specifically, the connection component can be configured as a magnetic structure, a snap-fit structure, or a slide structure. Taking the magnetic structure as an example: a magnetic component is provided at the end of the shell 111 of each earphone 1. When the two earphones 1 are close to each other, the two magnetic components are magnetically connected to each other, so that the two earphones 1 can be rolled up to form a ring structure after being connected, so as to be worn on the wrist. Among them, the two magnetic components can be magnets of opposite polarity, or one can be a magnet and the other can be metal, etc.
[0070] In this embodiment, when the user needs long battery life or uses it while exercising, the connecting line 2 is connected to the two earphones 1, and the earphones 1 become neck-hanging or head-bow type, which can power the earphones 1 to extend the battery life and make the earphones 1 stable to meet the needs of sports scenes; when the user uses it normally, the earphones 1 can be separated from the connecting line 2 and the earphones 1 can be worn alone as ear-hanging earphones; when not in use, the earphones 1 can be connected to the connecting line 2, wound up and worn on the wrist to improve the portability of the product.
[0071] In the above embodiments, the description of each embodiment has its own focus. For parts that are not described or recorded in detail in a certain embodiment, reference can be made to the relevant description of other embodiments.
