When the housing cover 102 closes the opening of the housing main body 101, it is hermetically attached to the inner liner 200 and encloses a receiving cavity 1 with the inner liner 200.

[0034] Since in the earphone storage box provided by the embodiment of the present application, the earphone or the earphone accommodated in the original adapted earphone box can be accommodated together with the original adapted earphone box into the accommodation cavity 1 surrounded by the outer shell cover 102 and the inner liner 200, and the outer shell 100 and the inner liner 200 provide two layers of protection structures, which in itself increases the sealing and waterproof performance of the earphone. Coupled with the end face of the inner liner 200 being hermetically and fittingly attached to the open end of the outer shell body 101, and the outer shell cover 102 being hermetically and fittingly attached to the inner liner 200 when closing the open end of the outer shell body 101, the sealing and waterproof performance of the earphone or the original adapted earphone box accommodated in the inner liner 200 is further enhanced. If the accommodation cavity 1 is used to accommodate the original adapted earphone box, the wall profile thereof can be designed to be the same as or substantially the same as the outer profile of the original adapted earphone box.

[0035] According to a preferred embodiment of the present application, the inner liner 200 is of an elastic structure, and it can be an inner liner 200 made of materials such as plastic, silica gel or rubber with certain elasticity, so that it can fit more closely with the end face of the open end of the outer shell body 101 and the outer shell cover 102, greatly enhancing the sealing and waterproof performance of the earphone storage box. The outer shell 100 can be made of a rigid plastic material or can also be a material with certain elasticity, but the hardness of the outer shell 100 should be higher than the hardness of the inner liner 200.

[0036] See Figure 3 and Figure 4 According to a specific embodiment of the present application, a flange portion 201 (outer edge) extending towards the outside of the inner liner 200 is formed around the end of the inner liner 200, and the flange portion 201 is hermetically and fittingly attached to the end face of the open end of the outer shell body 101.

[0037] See Figure 2 According to an embodiment of the present application, the earphone storage box includes a magnetic attraction member 2 provided on the outer side wall of the outer shell 100. The magnetic attraction member 2 is at least used to adsorb and fix a wireless charger, facilitating the positioning of the wireless charger on the outer shell 100 and better wirelessly charging the earphone accommodated in the earphone storage box.

[0038] According to an embodiment of the present application, the number of the magnetic attraction members 2 is 4, and the 4 magnetic attraction members 2 are arranged in a rectangular matrix. Two of the 4 magnetic attraction members 2 are arranged on the outer side wall of the outer shell body 101, and the other two magnetic attraction members 2 are arranged on the outer side wall of the outer shell cover 102.

[0039] According to a specific embodiment of the present application, grooves can be formed on the outer side wall of the outer shell cover 102 and the outer side wall of the outer shell body 101, so that the magnetic attraction member 2 can be embedded in the grooves, ensuring that the magnetic attraction member 2 is flush with the outer surfaces of the outer shell cover 102 and the outer shell body 101. The magnetic attraction member 2 can be a rectangular magnet, a square magnet, a circular magnet, etc.

[0040] See Figures 1 to 3, according to an embodiment of the present application, one end of the outer shell cover 102 is hinged to the outer shell body 101. The earphone storage box further includes a locking mechanism movably disposed on at least one of the outer shell body 101 and the outer shell cover 102. When the outer shell cover 102 closes the opening of the outer shell body 101, the locking mechanism can lock the other end of the outer shell cover 102 to the outer shell body 101 or release the locking and fixing.

[0041] Of course, as other embodiments, the outer shell cover 102 is not limited to being hinged to the outer shell body 101, and can also be detachably connected to the outer shell body 101 by means of snap connection or the like to open or close the opening of the outer shell body 101.

[0042] See Figures 1 to 3 and Figure 6 , according to a specific embodiment of the present application, the locking mechanism includes a first locking mechanism and / or a second locking mechanism. Preferably, both the first locking mechanism and the second locking mechanism are provided to provide double locking for the outer shell cover 102 and the outer shell body 101;

[0043] The first locking mechanism includes a lock ring 3. The lock ring 3 is hinged to the outer shell body 101 and can hoop the other end of the outer shell cover 102 towards the outer shell body 101 when the outer shell cover 102 closes the opening of the outer shell body 101. A first extension 103 can be provided on the outer shell cover 102. Specifically, the lock ring 3 hoops the first extension 103 towards the outer shell body 101. In addition, the lock ring 3 can be a U-shaped snap ring with an opening. The open end of the U-shaped snap ring can be inserted into the outer shell body 101 to form a hinge, and the end of the U-shaped snap ring opposite to the open end is used to hoop the outer shell cover 102;

[0044] The second locking mechanism includes a buckle cover 4 hinged to the outer shell body 101 through a hinge shaft 10 and an elastic pressing member 5 sleeved on the hinge shaft 10. When the outer shell cover 102 closes the opening of the outer shell body 101, the elastic force of the elastic pressing member 5 causes the buckle cover 4 to be snap-fitted to fix the outer shell cover 102. When an external force presses the buckle cover 4, the buckle cover 4 can move against the elastic force of the elastic pressing member 5 and separate from the outer shell cover 102. The elastic pressing member 5 can be a spring or a torsion spring. The buckle cover 4 is provided with a second extension 41 facing the outer shell cover 102, and the outer shell cover 102 is provided with a third extension 104. When the outer shell cover 102 closes the opening of the outer shell body 101, the elastic force of the elastic pressing member 5 causing the buckle cover 4 to be snap-fitted to fix the outer shell cover 102 specifically means that the second extension 41 presses on the third extension 104.

[0045] See Figures 1 to 3 and Figure 6, according to an embodiment of the present application, the first locking mechanism further includes an elastic sleeve 6. The elastic sleeve 6 is arranged on the section of the buckle ring 3 for clamping the outer shell cover 102. The elastic sleeve 6 can be a rubber sleeve or the like. The characteristic of its elastic deformation can facilitate the buckle ring 3 to better clamp the outer shell cover 102 and can protect the outer shell cover 102 from being worn by the buckle ring 3. When the buckle ring 3 is a U-shaped buckle ring, the elastic sleeve 6 is sleeved on the section of the end of the U-shaped buckle ring opposite to the opening end.

[0046] See Figure 3 and Figure 5 , according to an embodiment of the present application, the outer shell main body 101 has a first through hole 105, and the inner container 200 is correspondingly provided with a second through hole 202 aligned with the first through hole 105. The earphone storage box includes a first sealing plug 7 and a second sealing plug 8. The first sealing plug 7 is used to block or unblock the first through hole 105, and the second sealing plug 8 is used to block or unblock the second through hole 202. After the first through hole 105 and the second through hole 202 are unblocked, it is convenient for the charging cable to enter the inner container 200 to perform a wired charging operation on the earphones therein.

[0047] See Figure 3 and Figure 5 , according to a specific embodiment of the present application, the first sealing plug 7 is hinged to the outside of the outer shell main body 101 and can rotate between a position blocking the first through hole 105 and a position unblocking the first through hole 105. One end of the first sealing plug 7 away from its hinged end can be engaged with the outside of the outer shell main body 101 when blocking the first through hole 105. The second sealing plug 8 is an elastic cover, which is inserted on the outside of the inner container 200 and can be kept in a closed position blocking the second through hole 202, and can be deformed to unblock the second through hole 202 under the action of an external force overcoming the elastic force of the elastic cover. For example, when the user pulls the elastic cover in a direction away from the inner container 200, the elastic cover can be moved away from the second through hole 202 to unblock the second through hole 202.

[0048] See Figure 7 , in addition, the earphone storage box provided by the present application may further include a hanging buckle 9 connected to the outer shell main body 101 or the outer shell cover 102. The hanging buckle 9 is a structure similar to a keychain, which is convenient to be directly hung on the user's pants, backpack or any other suitable position, further improving the portability of the earphone storage box.

[0049] It should be noted that the above embodiments only represent the preferred embodiments of the present application, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it should not be construed as a limitation to the present application. It should be pointed out that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present application, several deformations and improvements can be made, such as combining different features in each embodiment, etc., and these should all belong to the protection scope of the present application.
