Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of electronic product accessories, and particularly relates to an earclip-type earphone. Background Art

[0002] An air conduction earphone is an earphone that transmits sound through air vibration. During use, the sound outlet holes on the earphone need to be aligned with the ear canals of the ears to ensure good sound output. Due to different wearing habits, ear sizes, etc. of different people, the wearing positions of the earphones will also be different, and users need to adjust the earphones to a comfortable wearing position according to their own situations.

[0003] However, due to the limitation of the sound outlet holes on the earphone, the adjustment range of the earphone position is small. If adjusted too much, the sound outlet holes will be blocked by the skin inside the ear, thus affecting the sound output effect, and the earphone cannot give most wearers a wearing position suitable for their own ears while ensuring the sound output effect.

Specific embodiments

[0025] Next, in combination with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, the present utility model will be further described. It should be noted that, on the premise of no conflict, the following-described embodiments or technical features can be arbitrarily combined with each other to form new embodiments.

[0026] It should be noted that all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, outside, top, bottom, etc.) in the embodiments of the present utility model are only used to explain the relative positional relationship between components in a specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indications will also change accordingly.

[0027] It should also be noted that when an element is referred to as "fixed to" or "disposed on" another element, the element can be directly on the other element or there may be an intermediate element at the same time. When an element is referred to as "connected" to another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intermediate element at the same time.

[0028] Please refer to Figures 1 to 7 , an earclip-type earphone 10 provided by an embodiment of the present utility model includes a sound generating chamber 12, a clamping chamber 14, and an earclip member 16. The earclip member 16 connects the sound generating chamber 12 and the clamping chamber 14. The sound generating chamber 12 and the clamping chamber 14 are spaced apart from each other to form a wearing space therebetween. In the use state, the sound generating chamber 12 and the clamping chamber 14 are respectively located on opposite sides of the ear. Specifically, at least a part of the sound generating chamber 12 is located inside the ear so that the sound generated by the sound generating chamber 12 can be transmitted into the ear canal. The clamping chamber 14 is located on the back of the ear. The clamping chamber 14 and the sound generating chamber 12 are clamped on the ear under the action of the earclip member 16, forming a fixing effect to a certain extent and preventing the earclip-type earphone 10 from falling off the ear.

[0029] The sound-emitting chamber 12 is provided with a sound outlet hole 18, and the sound outlet hole 18 is communicated with the outside of the sound-emitting chamber 12. The ear clip member 16 is connected to the side of the sound-emitting chamber 12 away from the sound outlet hole 18 (that is, the sound outlet hole 18 is located on the side of the sound-emitting chamber 12 away from the ear clip member 16), so that the sound outlet hole 18 can be closer to the ear canal. The sound generated by the sound-emitting chamber 12 can be transmitted outward through the sound outlet hole 18. When the sound outlet hole 18 is aligned with the ear canal of the ear, the sound is transmitted more smoothly to the ear canal, and at this time, a better sound output effect is achieved.

[0030] The sound-emitting chamber 12 includes a thickness direction C and a circumferential direction O. The sound-emitting chamber 12 and the clamping chamber 14 are arranged along the thickness direction C, and the circumferential direction O surrounds the outer periphery of the thickness direction C. The sound outlet hole 18 is provided on one side of the sound-emitting chamber 12 in the circumferential direction O. It can be understood that when the earclip-type earphone 10 is in use, the direction of the clamping force generated by the sound-emitting chamber 12 on the ear can be consistent with the thickness direction C, or can form an acute angle. For example, Figure 7 The position referred to by the sound-emitting housing 26 can be understood as a plane, the thickness direction C can be understood as perpendicular to the plane, and the circumferential direction O is centered on the thickness direction C and surrounds the thickness direction C.

[0031] The surface of the sound-emitting chamber 12 in the circumferential direction O is an arc surface, so as to avoid forming edges and corners in the circumferential direction O and affecting the wearing comfort.

[0032] The length of the sound outlet hole 18 in the circumferential direction O is greater than the length of the sound outlet hole 18 in the thickness direction C, that is, the length of the sound outlet hole 18 in the circumferential direction O is relatively large. When the user rotates the earclip-type earphone 10 along the circumferential direction O to adjust its wearing position, when at least part of the sound outlet hole 18 is aligned with the ear canal, the rotation angle of the earclip-type earphone 10 is larger, that is, the adjustment range of the earclip-type earphone in the circumferential direction O is larger, so that the earclip-type earphone 10 can be applicable to more users while maintaining the wearing comfort and good sound output effect.

[0033] Such as Figures 2 to 4As shown, in the present application, on the premise that at least part of the sound outlet holes 18 are aligned with the ear canal, the earclip-type earphone 10 has three wearing states. In the first wearing state, the earclip-type earphone 10 is in an overall inclined downward state, and at this time, at least the top of the sound outlet holes 18 is aligned with the ear canal. In the second wearing state, the earclip-type earphone 10 is in an overall basically horizontal state, and at this time, at least the middle of the sound outlet holes 18 is aligned with the ear canal. In the third wearing state, the earclip-type earphone 10 is in an overall inclined upward state, and at this time, at least the bottom of the sound outlet holes 18 is aligned with the ear canal. Specifically, in the first wearing state and the third wearing state, the maximum included angle α between the earclip-type earphones 10 is 55° - 60°. That is, when the earclip-type earphone 10 is in the first wearing state, the user can rotate the earclip-type earphone 10 downward within the range of 0° - α to adjust the wearing position of the earclip-type earphone 10, and during the adjustment process, at least part of the sound outlet holes 18 is always aligned with the ear canal to ensure a good sound output effect.

[0034] It can be understood that the sound outlet hole 18 can be a relatively large hole extending along the circumferential direction O of the upper edge of the sound generating chamber 12, or can be a plurality of relatively small holes arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction O. When the sound outlet hole 18 is a hole extending along the circumferential direction O, the length of the sound outlet hole 18 in the circumferential direction O is the aperture of the hole in the circumferential direction O, and the length of the sound outlet hole 18 in the thickness direction C is the aperture of the hole in the thickness direction C; when the sound outlet hole 18 is a plurality of holes arranged along the circumferential direction O, the length of the sound outlet hole 18 in the circumferential direction O is the maximum distance between the two holes farthest apart in the circumferential direction O, and the length of the sound outlet hole 18 in the thickness direction C is the maximum aperture in the thickness direction C.

[0035] The specific shape of the sound outlet hole is not limited. For example, it can be rectangular, oval, kidney-shaped, etc., as long as the aperture of the sound outlet hole in the circumferential direction O is larger than the aperture in the thickness direction C. In this embodiment, the sound outlet hole is kidney-shaped, that is, the sound outlet hole is a kidney-shaped hole.

[0036] In one embodiment, the ratio of the length of the sound outlet hole 18 in the thickness direction C to the length of the sound outlet hole 18 in the circumferential direction O ranges from 0.3 to 0.5. The ratio of the length of the sound generating chamber 12 in the circumferential direction O to the length of the sound outlet hole 18 in the circumferential direction O ranges from 6 to 10. Specifically, the length of the sound outlet hole 18 in the circumferential direction O is 6 - 11 mm. Controlling the ratio and the value within the above ranges can prevent the sound outlet hole 18 from being too large, which affects sound transmission and aggregation and thus affects the sound quality, and can also prevent the sound outlet hole 18 from being too small, which affects the adjustment range, achieving the effect of taking into account both the sound quality and the adjustment range.

[0037] It should be noted that the length mentioned in a certain direction herein refers to the maximum length in that direction.

[0038] In one embodiment, the sound outlet hole 18 includes a main portion 181 and an extension portion 182. The main portion 181 and the extension portion 182 are arranged circumferentially along the circumference O, and both the main portion 181 and the extension portion 182 can be used for the sound to propagate outwards.

[0039] The main portion 181 and the extension portion 182 can be in communication with each other or can be spaced apart from each other. In this embodiment, the main portion 181 and the extension portion 182 are in communication with each other.

[0040] The specific number of the extension portions 182 is not limited. For example, it can be one or two. In this embodiment, the number of the extension portions 182 is two. The two extension portions 182 are respectively located on the opposite sides of the main portion 181 in the circumferential direction O, and are both connected to the main portion 181.

[0041] The length of the extension portion 182 in the thickness direction C is less than the length of the main portion 181 in the thickness direction C. Specifically, the length of the extension portion 182 in the thickness direction C gradually decreases in the direction away from the main portion.

[0042] The sound outlet hole 18 is a kidney-shaped hole. The main portion 181 is located in the middle of the sound outlet hole 18, and the extension portions 182 are located at both ends of the sound outlet hole 18.

[0043] In one embodiment, a sound output net 20 is provided in the sound outlet hole 18. The sound output net 20 is provided with a plurality of through holes 22 spaced apart from each other. The through holes 22 are in communication with the sound outlet hole 18. The sound generated by the sound generating chamber 12 can propagate outwards through the through holes 22 on the sound output net 20. At the same time, the sound output net 20 can play a role in protecting the internal components of the sound generating chamber 12 and reducing the risk of foreign objects entering the inside of the sound generating chamber 12 through the sound outlet hole 18.

[0044] The contour shape of the sound output net 20 is adapted to the contour shape of the sound outlet hole 18. It includes a portion corresponding to the main portion 181 and a portion corresponding to the extension portion 182. And the outer surface of the sound output net 20 is flush with the outer surface of the sound generating chamber 12, or the outer surface of the sound output net 20 slightly protrudes from or slightly is lower than the outer surface of the sound generating chamber 12 to reduce the obtrusiveness of the sound output net 20.

[0045] The through holes 22 include first through holes 221 corresponding to and communicating with the main portion 181 and second through holes 222 corresponding to and communicating with the extension portion 182. The aperture of at least part of the first through holes 221 is larger than the aperture of the second through holes 222. During the use of the earclip-type earphone 10, the portion of the sound output net 20 corresponding to the extension portion 182 may come into contact with the ear. At this time, the second through holes 222 may be blocked by the ear. Making the size of the second through holes 222 smaller can reduce the harm of sound vibration to the ear.

[0046] It should be noted that the aperture of the first through hole 221 being larger than that of the second through hole 222 specifically means that the maximum aperture of the first through hole 221 is larger than the maximum aperture of the second through hole 222.

[0047] A sound tuning member 24, such as sound tuning cotton, is provided inside the sound outlet net 20. The sound tuning member 24 passes through the through hole 22 on the sound outlet net 20. The sound tuning member 24 can play a role in adjusting the sound, and at the same time can prevent dust and the like from entering the sound generating chamber 12 through the through hole 22.

[0048] The sound outlet net 20 includes a side plate and a surrounding wall connected to the outer periphery of the side plate. The through hole 22 is provided through the side plate. The surrounding wall is annular and encloses a receiving space with the side plate. The sound tuning member 24 is located in the receiving space and is attached to the side plate.

[0049] In one embodiment, one end of the ear clip member 16 is fixedly connected to the sound generating chamber 12, and the other end is rotatably connected to the clamping chamber 14, so that the sound generating chamber 12 cannot rotate relative to the ear clip member 16, while the clamping chamber 14 can rotate relative to the ear clip member 16. This can prevent the sound generating chamber 12 from rotating relative to the ear clip member 16 during use, which may affect the sound output effect and wearing comfort. At the same time, during the wearing process, the clamping chamber 14 can rotate relative to the ear clip member 16 to adjust the position of the clamping chamber 14, so as to form a better clamping effect and improve the wearing comfort.

[0050] Specifically, one end of the ear clip member 16 is fixedly connected to the sound generating chamber 12 through a fastener such as a bolt, and the other end is rotatably connected to the clamping chamber 14 through a rotating shaft, so that the clamping chamber 14 can rotate relative to the ear clip member 16 around the rotating shaft.

[0051] The ear clip member 16 has a certain elasticity and can deform. The sound generating chamber 12 and the clamping chamber 14 can be clamped on the ear by the elastic force generated by the ear clip member 16.

[0052] Specifically, the ear clip member 16 is generally in a C shape. One end of the ear clip member 16 is connected to the clamping member, and the other end is connected to the side of the sound generating chamber 12 away from the sound outlet hole 18. When the sound generating chamber 12 and the clamping chamber 14 are separated from each other under an external force, the ear clip member 16 will deform and generate elasticity. After the external force disappears, the sound generating chamber 12 and the clamping chamber 14 will approach each other under the elastic force of the ear clip member 16 and finally be clamped on the ear.

[0053] In one embodiment, the sound generating chamber 12 includes a sound generating housing 26 and a sound generating module 28, such as a speaker, located inside the sound generating housing 26. The sound generating module 28 can generate sound. The sound outlet hole 18 is provided on the sound generating housing 26 and corresponds to the sound generating module 28. One end of the ear clip member 16 is connected to the sound generating housing 26.

[0054] The clamping bin 14 includes a clamping housing 30 and a battery 32 located within the clamping housing 30. The battery 32 is electrically connected to the sound generating module 28 to supply electrical energy to the sound generating module 28. One end of the ear clip 16 remote from the sound generating housing 26 is connected to the clamping housing 30.

[0055] The ear clip 16 includes a connecting arm 34 and a flexible printed circuit (FPC) 36 located inside the connecting arm 34. The connecting arm 34 is elastic and is connected to the sound generating housing 26 and the clamping housing 30 at its two ends respectively. The connecting arm 34 is hollow, and the FPC 36 is located in the internal space of the connecting arm 34. Both ends of the FPC 36 are located outside the connecting arm 34 and extend into the sound generating housing 26 and the clamping housing 30 respectively. One end of the FPC 36 is electrically connected to the battery 32 within the clamping housing 30, and the other end is electrically connected to the sound generating module 28 within the sound generating housing 26, achieving the effect of conducting the battery 32 and the sound generating module 28.

[0056] The above embodiments are only the preferred embodiments of the present invention and cannot be used to limit the scope of protection of the present invention. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on the present invention fall within the scope of protection required by the present invention.
