Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of earphones, in particular to a passive noise reduction device and an earphone. Background Art
[0002] With the changes in people's work and living habits, many people are currently accustomed to working or engaging in other activities in a secluded environment, and the demand for a quiet environment is increasing day by day. Noise-canceling earphones have emerged as the times require, and among them, passive noise-canceling earphones have been widely used due to their relatively low cost.
[0003] Passive noise reduction mainly blocks external sounds through physical means. For example, special sound insulation materials are used to absorb, reflect, or scatter sound waves, forming a closed space for the human ear to prevent external sound waves from directly entering the ear. The advantage of passive noise reduction is that the principle is simple and direct, so the cost is relatively lower than that of active noise reduction, and the noise reduction effect can be achieved without relying on electronic devices. At the same time, it has a good blocking effect on medium and low-frequency noises. However, its disadvantage is that the isolation effect on high-frequency noises is limited. When dealing with high-frequency noises, it is difficult to achieve a satisfactory sound cancellation level. For example, it is difficult to achieve the purpose of isolating environmental sounds in a noisy industrial environment or a noisy public place, resulting in limited noise reduction effect. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the existing technology.

[0047] In the prior art, there is a problem that the passive noise reduction technology has an unsatisfactory noise reduction effect when dealing with high-frequency noise; to solve this problem, the present utility model proposes an innovative solution, adopting a design that combines a looped damping channel and a sound-absorbing cavity. Through the special structure of the looped damping channel, high-frequency sounds are more effectively attenuated and blocked. The content of the present utility model will be introduced in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0048] Embodiment 1
[0049] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , an embodiment of the present utility model provides a passive noise reduction device, which can be applied to headphones. Specifically, the passive noise reduction device includes a sound-absorbing part 10, and the sound-absorbing part 10 includes an outer housing. The outer housing is provided with an air inlet 1011 for communicating with the external environment and an air outlet 1021 for communicating with the human ear.
[0050] It can be understood that when the headphones are worn on the ears, in order to keep the air pressure inside and outside the headphones balanced and avoid discomfort caused by sealing or affecting the sound effect, it is necessary to communicate with the external environment and the human ear respectively through the air inlet 1011 and the air outlet 1021 provided on the outer housing to balance the air pressure, so as to achieve the purpose of improving the wearing comfort.
[0051] At the same time, the air inlet 1011 and the air outlet 1021 are also used to provide channels for the incoming and outgoing of sound waves. In this embodiment, in order to achieve the elimination of high-frequency sound waves and further improve the noise reduction effect, a damping channel 11 is provided inside the outer housing.
[0052] Specifically, both ends of the damping channel 11 are respectively communicated with the air inlet 1011 and the air outlet 1021. The damping channel 11 has a looped structure and is used for attenuating the sound waves entering the damping channel 11 once; due to the looped structure of the damping channel 11, when the sound waves propagate in the damping channel 11, due to the extension of the loop path, reflection, scattering, etc. will occur, causing the energy of the sound waves to attenuate, thereby achieving the elimination of high-frequency sound waves.
[0053] In this embodiment, the damping channel 11 is used to attenuate the sound waves entering the damping channel 11 once, reducing the sound wave energy and playing a role in preliminary noise reduction.
[0054] In addition, a first sound absorption cavity 12 is also provided inside the housing body. The first sound absorption cavity 12 is located on the extension path of the damping channel 11, and the damping channel 11 penetrates through the first sound absorption cavity 12. That is, when the sound wave propagates halfway in the damping channel 11, it will pass through the first sound absorption cavity 12 and continue to propagate in the remaining part of the damping channel 11.
[0055] Specifically, a first sound absorption structure is provided inside the first sound absorption cavity 12, and the first sound absorption structure is used to perform secondary attenuation on the sound waves entering the damping channel 11.
[0056] In this embodiment, the first sound absorption structure includes a first sound absorption material 121 filled in the first sound absorption cavity 12. The first sound absorption material 121 can be sound absorption cotton, or other sound absorption materials such as rubber, sound insulation felt, aerogel, or some special polymer materials, etc.
[0057] Based on the foregoing structure, in this embodiment, by providing the first sound absorption cavity 12, the sound waves attenuated by the damping channel 11 are absorbed to achieve the effect of secondary attenuation, thereby further enhancing the noise reduction effect.
[0058] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the passive noise reduction device further includes a second sound absorption cavity 13. The second sound absorption cavity 13 includes a first through hole communicating with the air outlet 1021 and a second through hole for communicating with the human ear.
[0059] Among them, a second sound absorption structure is provided inside the second sound absorption cavity 13, and the second sound absorption structure is used to perform tertiary attenuation on the sound waves transmitted from the damping channel 11.
[0060] As Figure 1 shown, in an optional implementation manner of this embodiment, the second sound absorption structure includes a first tuning mesh cloth 131 covering the second through hole.
[0061] In this implementation manner, the first tuning mesh cloth 131 scatters and absorbs the sound waves through its porous structure, thereby attenuating the sound wave energy.
[0062] As Figure 2 shown, in another optional implementation manner of this embodiment, the second sound absorption structure includes a second tuning mesh cloth 133 covering the first through hole and a second sound absorption material 132 filled between the second tuning mesh cloth 133 and the second through hole. Among them, the second tuning mesh cloth 133 is adhesively connected to the second sound absorption material 132.
[0063] In this embodiment, the second tuning mesh 133 can provide the functions of scattering and partial absorption, while the filled second sound-absorbing material 132 is made of a material with better sound-absorbing performance, so that a synergistic effect is formed between the second tuning mesh 133 and the second sound-absorbing material 132, and the sound wave energy can be absorbed more effectively.
[0064] In this embodiment, when sound-absorbing cotton or tuning mesh is used as the sound-absorbing material, the noise reduction intensity can be adjusted by adjusting the mesh count of the mesh or the density of the sound-absorbing cotton, so that the noise reduction product can adapt to different people or application scenarios.
[0065] As Figure 3 shown, further, in this embodiment, the outer housing includes a first housing 101 and a second housing 102. The first housing 101 is provided with a first damping groove, and the second housing 102 is provided with a second damping groove 1023. The first housing 101 and the second housing 102 are connected in alignment through a positioning component, so that the first housing 101 and the second housing 102 can be accurately aligned and combined, and then the first damping groove and the second damping groove 1023 can be accurately combined to form a damping channel 11.
[0066] Wherein, the positioning component includes a positioning post 1012 provided on the first housing 101 and a positioning groove 1022 provided on the second housing 102. Through the alignment and insertion between the positioning post 1012 and the positioning groove 1022, the alignment and combination of the first housing 101 and the second housing 102 are realized.
[0067] In addition, the first housing 101 and the second housing 102 are ultrasonically welded; based on this, through the ultrasonic welding of the first housing 101 and the second housing 102, the tight welding combination of the two can be realized, so that the first damping groove and the second damping groove 1023 can be combined to form a closed and continuous sound guiding channel. At the same time, this welding method is convenient for manufacturing and assembling, and ensures the integrity and stability of the device.
[0068] As Figure 4 shown, Figure 4 is a top view of the sound absorption part 10 in the state of hiding the first housing 101. In this embodiment, the damping channel 11 is axially symmetric, and the first sound absorption cavity 12 is located at the central axis of the damping channel 11. The symmetric shape design of the damping channel 11 and the position arrangement of the first sound absorption cavity 12 help to attenuate the sound wave more evenly, and improve the stability and effectiveness of noise reduction.
[0069] Further, in this embodiment, the damping channel 11 is one or more of a spiral loop structure, a zigzag loop structure, a nested loop shape loop structure, and an irregular loop structure.
[0070] It can be understood that when the damping channel 11 adopts different structures, different noise reduction effects can be produced.
[0071] As Figure 4 shown, in this embodiment, the damping channel 11 with a zigzag loop structure is adopted. By means of a complex zigzag path, the propagation distance of sound waves is increased, the propagation obstruction of sound waves is enhanced, the sound wave energy can be effectively dissipated, so as to weaken and attenuate medium and high frequency sound waves, and it can be adapted to an environment with sharp noises, such as the roadside where there are often sharp braking sounds or horn sounds.
[0072] In addition, when the damping channel 11 with a spiral loop structure is adopted, since the sound waves will experience multiple reflections when propagating in the spiral path, the medium and high frequency sound waves are significantly attenuated, and it can be adapted to a scenario where medium and high frequency sounds exist, such as a production workshop with many industrial equipment.
[0073] In addition, if a nested loop shape loop structure is adopted, since a plurality of nested loops form a complex sound wave propagation path, the sound waves will undergo multiple reciprocating propagations in addition to reflections during the propagation process, and a strong sound wave attenuation ability can be provided, so as to be adapted to a noisy environment, such as a vegetable market, etc.
[0074] Embodiment 2
[0075] Please refer to Figures 5 to 8 , on the basis of the foregoing embodiments, the embodiment of the present utility model provides a headset, which includes:
[0076] A passive noise reduction device, which is the passive noise reduction device provided in the above embodiments;
[0077] An outer earplug 20, which surrounds the outer shell of the passive noise reduction device; the outer earplug 20 has an earplug part 21 extending outward. It can be understood that the shape of the earplug part 21 roughly matches the structure of the external auditory canal of the human ear, so as to be inserted into the human ear to achieve the purpose of noise reduction.
[0078] In this embodiment, an earplug channel 211 for communicating with the human ear is opened in the earplug part 21, and the earplug channel 211 is communicated with the air outlet 1021 on the outer shell. By combining the passive noise reduction device with the outer earplug 20 and connecting the earplug part 21 of the outer earplug 20 with the human ear, the whole headset has a good passive noise reduction function and provides a quiet listening environment for the user.
[0079] Furthermore, an ear tip 22 is provided at the end of the earplug portion 21. The ear tip 22 is made of silicone, and other elastic materials can also be used to make the ear tip 22. The function of the ear tip 22 is that when the user wears the earphone, it can form a tight connection between the earphone and the external auditory canal of the human ear, so as to further achieve the purpose of noise reduction. In addition, it can also improve the wearing stability of the earphone.
[0080] In an alternative embodiment, the ear tip 22 and the earplug portion 21 are detachably connected; as Figure 5 、 6 shown, Figure 5 and Figure 6 respectively show the combined views of two second sound absorption cavities 13 structures and the detachable ear tip 22; when the ear tip 22 is detachably connected, the user can replace the ear tip 22 according to the actual situation, such as replacing the size or type of the ear tip 22, etc., to achieve the personalized design of the earphone.
[0081] In an alternative embodiment, the ear tip 22 and the earplug portion 21 are detachably connected; as Figure 7 、 8 shown, Figure 7 and Figure 8 respectively show the combined views of two second sound absorption cavities 13 structures and the integrated ear tip 22; in another alternative embodiment, the ear tip 22 and the earplug portion 21 are of an integrated structure, and the integrated ear tip 22 and the earplug portion 21 simplify the operation of using the earphone and are suitable for users who have low requirements for the wearing feeling of the earphone but pursue convenience.
[0082] In this embodiment, since the earphone adopts the passive noise reduction device described in the first embodiment, when high-frequency sound waves enter the looped damping channel 11, due to the looped structure of the channel, the propagation path and time of the sound waves are extended, so that the sound waves are continuously reflected, refracted and scattered in the channel, thus realizing the effective elimination of high-frequency sound waves. At the same time, by setting the first sound absorption cavity 12 and the second sound absorption cavity 13 to further absorb and attenuate the sound wave energy, resonance and other effects can be generated with the high-frequency sound waves, so as to more effectively eliminate the high-frequency sound waves. Based on this, when the user wears the earphone, the external high-frequency sounds can be significantly eliminated, thus having a better noise reduction effect.
[0083] Finally, it should be noted that although the above embodiments have been described in the text and drawings of the specification of this application, the patent protection scope of this application cannot be limited thereby. All technical solutions obtained by equivalent structure or equivalent process substitution or modification using the content recorded in the text and drawings of the specification of this application based on the essential concept of this application, as well as those directly or indirectly implementing the technical solutions of the above embodiments in other related technical fields, are included in the patent protection scope of this application.
