Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of audio equipment, in particular to a headset. Background Art

[0002] Open-back headphones are a type of portable audio output device that achieves sound conduction within a specific range. Compared with traditional in-ear and over-ear headphones, open-back headphones do not block or cover the ear canal, allowing users to obtain sound information from the external environment while listening to music, thereby improving safety and comfort. Ear clip headphones are one type of open-back headphones.

[0003] Ear-clip earphones have gradually been exposed to the public in the past two years. Ear-clip earphones are usually composed of two earphone bodies and a connecting rod connecting the two earphone bodies together. When worn, the two earphone bodies are clamped on the user's ears. The user needs to open the two earphone bodies of the ear-clip earphones at a certain angle to make the connecting rod open and deform before the two earphone bodies can be worn on the front and back sides of the ears. Existing ear-clip earphones adjust the distance between the two earphone bodies through the deformation of the connecting rod itself, so that the two earphone bodies can pass through the ear helix and clamp the ear. When in use, the two earphone bodies need to be spread apart by fingers to achieve wearing, which makes the existing ear-clip earphones difficult to wear and affects the user experience.

[0036] The utility model embodiment provides a headset, referring to Figure 1-3 The earphone includes a first earphone body 100, a second earphone body 200, a rotating connection structure 300 and a connecting rod 400. One end of the connecting rod 400 is rotatably connected to the first earphone body 100 through the rotating connection structure 300, and the other end of the connecting rod 400 is movably connected or fixedly connected to the second earphone body 200; the connecting rod 400 includes a wire channel 410, and a conductive member 500 is passed through the wire channel 410. The first earphone body 100 and the second earphone body 200 are electrically connected through the conductive member 500, and the wire channel 410 is located on the side of the rotating connection structure 300 away from the second earphone body 200.

[0037] In the present embodiment, since the first earphone body 100 and the connecting rod 400 are rotatably connected, when wearing the earphones, the user only needs to use the fingers to open (hook) the first earphone body 100 at a certain angle to increase the gap (distance) between the first earphone body 100 and the second earphone body 200, so that the ear can pass between the first earphone body 100 and the second earphone body 200 to achieve wearing. The earphones in the present embodiment do not need to use the fingers to open the first earphone body 100 and the second earphone body 200 to achieve wearing. The earphones in the present embodiment are less labor-intensive to wear, which improves the user experience of the earphones. At the same time, when taking off the earphone, for example, it can be done by pulling the connecting rod 400. Specifically: when pulling the connecting rod 400, the first earphone body 100 rotates relative to the connecting rod 400 to increase the gap between the first earphone body 100 and the second earphone body 200 (that is, the first earphone body 100 rotates relative to the connecting rod 400 by adaptation), so that the ear can be pulled out from between the first earphone body 100 and the second earphone body 200; for example, the first earphone body 100 can be opened at a certain angle by fingers to increase the distance between the first earphone body 100 and the second earphone body 200, so that the ear can be pulled out from between the first earphone body 100 and the second earphone body 200. The operation is simple and convenient.

[0038] In addition, the wire passage 410 in this embodiment is located on the side of the rotating connection structure 300 away from the second earphone body 200. Therefore, when the first earphone body 100 rotates relative to the connecting rod 400, the conductive member 500 will not leak out on the side of the first earphone body 100 and the connecting rod 400 close to the second earphone body 200. This embodiment can accommodate the conductive member 500, thereby solving the safety problem caused by the conductive member 500 leaking out of the earphone when the first earphone body 100 rotates relative to the connecting rod 400.

[0039] When worn, the first earphone body 100 and the second earphone body 200 are clamped at the front and back sides of the ear.

[0040] It can be understood that the present embodiment does not impose too many restrictions on the connection method between the second earphone body 200 and the connecting rod 400, that is, the movable connection between the second earphone body 200 and the connecting rod 400 can be, for example, a rotating connection, a sliding connection, etc., which is not limited here. The second earphone body 200 and the connecting rod 400 can also be fixedly connected with the connecting rod 400.

[0041] It is understandable that the connecting rod 400 can be straight or curved.

[0042] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 and 2The rotating connection structure 300 includes an elastic member 310, one end of the elastic member 310 is in contact with the first earphone body 100, and the other end of the elastic member 310 is in contact with the connecting rod 400. When the first earphone body 100 is rotated relative to the connecting rod 400, the distance between the two ends of the elastic member 310 is reduced, so that the elastic member 310 has a restoring force (elastic force). The restoring force of the elastic member 310 can make the first earphone body 100 and the connecting rod 400 reset when the finger releases the first earphone body 100, so that the earphone is clamped on the ear.

[0043] Specifically, refer to Figure 1 and 2 The elastic member 310 includes a first end 311 and a second end 312 , the first end 311 contacts the first earphone body 100 , and the second end 312 contacts the connecting rod 400 .

[0044] It can be understood that the above-mentioned contact can be understood as direct contact or indirect contact, which is not limited here. The contact can be understood as mutual abutment or mutual connection, for example, which is not limited here.

[0045] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 and 2 The rotating connection structure 300 includes a rotating shaft 320, the first earphone body 100 and the connecting rod 400 are rotatably connected via the rotating shaft 320, and the elastic member 310 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 320, so that the overall structure of the rotating connection structure 300 can be made more compact, and the space occupancy rate of the rotating connection structure 300 can be effectively reduced.

[0046] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 and 2 The first earphone body 100 includes a limit member 110 and a connecting opening 120. The rotating connection structure 300 and the limit member 110 are located in the first earphone body 100. The connecting rod 400 extends into the connecting opening 120 and is connected to the rotating connection structure 300. The limit member 110 is arranged on the side of the rotating connection structure 300 facing the second earphone body 200. The setting of the limit member 110 can block at least a portion of the connecting opening 120, thereby reducing the risk of water entering the first earphone body 100.

[0047] Further, in some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 and 2 The limiting member 110 includes a penetration hole 111 , and one end of the elastic member 310 is penetrated in the penetration hole 111 .

[0048] Specifically, since one end of the elastic member 310 is inserted into the insertion hole 111, the hole wall of the insertion hole 111 can prevent the end of the elastic member 310 from being dislocated from the stopper 110 during the rotation of the first earphone body 100 relative to the connecting rod 400. In addition, the provision of the insertion hole 111 can also prevent the stopper 110 and the elastic member 310 from interfering with each other. By providing the insertion hole 111 on the stopper 110, the space utilization rate of the first earphone body 100 can be improved, making the internal structure of the first earphone body 100 (such as the rotating connection structure 300, the stopper 110, etc.) more compact.

[0049] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 and 2 The limiting member 110 includes a first limiting portion 112 , and the connecting rod 400 is provided with a second limiting portion 420 corresponding to the first limiting portion 112 , and the first limiting portion 112 and the second limiting portion 420 can abut against each other.

[0050] Specifically, the first earphone body 100 is along Figure 2 When the first limit portion 112 and the second limit portion 420 are rotated counterclockwise relative to the connecting rod 400, the distance between them will be reduced (that is, the first limit portion 112 and the second limit portion 420 move toward each other). When the first limit portion 112 and the second limit portion 420 are in contact with each other, the first earphone body 100 is opened to the maximum angle. Further, the earphone includes a wearing state and an opening state. In the wearing state, the first earphone body 100 is in a reset state relative to the connecting rod 400, at which time the first earphone body 100 and the second earphone body 200 can clamp the ear. In the opening state, the first earphone body 100 rotates a certain angle relative to the connecting rod 400, and the elastic member 310 has a reset force. At this time, the ear can pass between the first earphone body 100 and the second earphone body 200, so that the earphone can be worn on the ear. When the earphone is in the wearing state, the first limiting portion 112 and the second limiting portion 420 are separated. During the process of the earphone being opened from the wearing state to the open state, the first earphone body 100 and the connecting rod 400 are relatively rotated to make the first limiting portion 112 and the second limiting portion 420 approach each other. When the first limiting portion 112 and the second limiting portion 420 abut against each other, the first earphone body 100 and the connecting rod 400 rotate to the maximum angle.

[0051] This embodiment limits the rotation angle of the first earphone body 100 relative to the connecting rod 400, so as to avoid the problem of failure of the elastic member 310 due to excessive rotation angle of the first earphone body 100 relative to the connecting rod 400.

[0052] Preferably, the rotation angle range of the first earphone body 100 relative to the connecting rod 400 is: 0-50° (reference Figure 2 , the rotation angle of the first earphone body 100 and the connecting rod 400 is indicated by α).

[0053] Specifically, when the first limiting portion 112 and the second limiting portion 420 are in contact with each other, α is 50°.

[0054] It is understandable that when the earphone is worn, it is necessary to ensure that the helix can pass through the first earphone body 100 and the second earphone body 200. When the maximum rotation angle of the first earphone body 100 relative to the connecting rod 400 is 50°, the helix of different thicknesses can pass between the first earphone body 100 and the second earphone body 200, so that the earphone of this embodiment can be adapted to a wider range of people.

[0055] In some embodiments, when the rotation angle of the first earphone body 100 relative to the connecting rod 400 is 30°-50°, the elastic force of the elastic member 310 is 0.6N-2N.

[0056] Specifically, referring to Table 1, Table 1 records the influence of the elastic force of the elastic member 310 when the earphone is in the open state on the wearing condition of the earphone when being worn (that is, the "elastic force" in Table 1 records the elastic force of the elastic member 310 when the earphone is in the open state, and the "wearing condition" records the user's feedback experience when the earphone is in the wearing state). In recording the wearing condition, when the percentage obtained by dividing the number of people in the crowd who think that the earphone will be loose when worn by the number of people in the crowd who think that the earphone will not be loose when worn is greater than 90%, it is recorded as "clamping", and when it is less than or equal to 90%, it is recorded as "loose"; when the percentage obtained by dividing the number of people in the crowd who think that the earphone will be pinched when worn by the number of people in the crowd who think that the earphone will not be pinched when worn is greater than or equal to 10%, it is recorded as "pinching".

[0057] It should be noted that this table is for illustration only and is not intended to limit the scope of this embodiment.

[0058] It can be seen from Table 1 that when the elastic force is less than 0.6N, the earphones cannot stably clamp the ears of most users; when the elastic force is greater than 2N: when the earphones are in the wearing state, most users will feel pain when wearing the earphones.

[0059] Elasticity / N Wearing condition 0.5 Loose 0.6 Clamping 0.7 Clamping ... ... 2 Tight 2.1 pinching pain

[0060] Table 1

[0061] Therefore, the earphones of this embodiment provide the user with a good wearing experience, and the fingers do not feel strained during the wearing process, which greatly improves the user's wearing comfort and enhances the user's usage experience.

[0062] In addition, when the earphone is in the open state, the elastic force of the elastic member 310 is less than or equal to 2N, which can also ensure that when the earphone is reset from the open state to the wearing state (that is, when the finger is released), the first earphone body 100 has less impact on the ear and will not cause pain to the ear, thereby improving the wearing comfort of the user.

[0063] In some embodiments, the connecting rod 400 is a metal structure. It can be understood that in this embodiment, the earphone can be put on and taken off by rotating the first earphone body 100 and the connecting rod 400. The setting of the connecting rod 400 as a metal structure can improve the strength of the connecting rod 400 and improve the service life of the connecting rod 400. The conductive member 500 is a flexible circuit board (i.e., FPC). The flexible circuit board passes through the wire channel 410. The first earphone body 100 and the second earphone body 200 are electrically connected through the flexible plate-like member. Compared with the conductive member 500 using multiple wires to realize the electrical connection between the first earphone body 100 and the second earphone body 200, the conductive member 500 in this embodiment uses a flexible circuit board to make the structure of the earphone more concise and more convenient to assemble.

[0064] In some preferred embodiments, reference Figure 1 and 2 The second earphone body 200 and the connecting rod 400 are fixedly connected, and the earphone includes a sound-generating component 600 , which is disposed in the second earphone body 200 .

[0065] It should be noted that the sound-emitting component 600 usually needs to set up a front sound cavity and a rear sound cavity to ensure the sound effect when working. In this embodiment, the sound-emitting component 600 is set on the second earphone body 200, and the second earphone body 200 and the connecting rod 400 are fixedly connected to ensure the sealing of the front sound cavity and the rear sound cavity, thereby ensuring the sound effect of the earphone. Therefore, the structure of this embodiment is simple and easy to assemble.

[0066] In some embodiments, reference Figure 1 and 2 The earphone includes a threaded member 800, and the second earphone body 200 and the connecting rod 400 are threadedly fixedly connected through the threaded member 800, and the threaded member 800 is, for example, a screw, a bolt, etc.

[0067] Since the earphone of this embodiment is very small, the production difficulty of assembling small structure parts is very great. Therefore, a threaded member 800 is used to achieve a fixed connection between the second earphone body 200 and the connecting rod 400. On the one hand, it can make the connection between the second earphone body 200 and the connecting rod 400 more secure, and also reduce the production difficulty of the earphone.

[0068] The earphone includes a power supply component 700 , which is disposed in the first earphone body 100 . The power supply component 700 is used to supply power to the sound component 600 . Specifically, the power supply component 700 is electrically connected to the sound component 600 through the conductive member 500 .

[0069] By setting the power supply assembly 700 in the first earphone body 100, more usable space of the second earphone body 200 can be released, so that the volume of the front sound cavity and the rear sound cavity can be made larger, thereby making the adjustable range of the sound effect wider; at the same time, it can also make the weight of the first earphone body 100 and the second earphone body 200 tend to be balanced, making the user more comfortable when wearing the earphones.

[0070] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
