[0002] In people's lives, headphones have become a commonly used electronic product, especially over-ear headphones and bone conduction headphones. When adjusting the headphones, the entire headphones need to be taken off. When the user needs to communicate with others, in order not to affect the communication with others, the headphones need to be taken off, but the headphones continue to play. When the user's communication is over, the user will miss the playback information during this period. Of course, the user can also take off the headphones and manually pause the playback, or manually reduce the playback volume, but when the user's communication is over, it is still necessary to manually resume the playback or manually increase the volume, which is more inconvenient to use.

[0032] In the present invention, unless otherwise specified, directional words such as "up, down, top, bottom" are usually used with reference to the directions shown in the drawings, or with reference to the components themselves in the vertical, perpendicular or gravity direction; similarly, for ease of understanding and description, "inside and outside" refer to the inside and outside relative to the outline of each component itself, but the above directional words are not used to limit the present invention.

[0033] See also Figure 1 As shown, according to one aspect of the present invention, a bone conduction headset capable of automatically adjusting the playback mode is provided, comprising.

[0034] The speaker mechanism 1 is used to generate sound;

[0035] Connecting member 2, one end of which is fixedly connected to the speaker mechanism 1;

[0036] Rotating mechanism 3 is connected to the other end of connecting member 2. Rotating mechanism 3 includes a gear 31, a stopper 32, and a reset mechanism. Gear 31 is fixedly mounted on the end of fixing member 5 near connecting member 2. Stopper 32 is mounted on the end of connecting member 2 near fixing member 5. Stopper 32 is configured to mate with gear 31 and control the rotation angle of rotating mechanism 3. Gear 31 may have teeth distributed over the entire circumference to enable large-angle rotation. Alternatively, gear 31 may have teeth only on a portion of its circumference. Preferably, gear 31 may have teeth only on a portion of its circumference.

[0037] The reset mechanism includes an elastic member 33 and a positioning column. One end of the elastic member 33 is fixed to the connecting member 2 through the positioning member, and the other end of the elastic member 33 is connected to the stop member 32. Preferably, the elastic member 33 is a spring, rubber, silicone or other elastic part. When the rotating mechanism 3 rotates, the elastic member 33 controls the rotation angle of the rotating mechanism 3 by pushing the stop member 32 to engage or disengage with the tooth groove of the gear 31.

[0038] The elastic member 33 may also be an elastic arm, which may be one elastic arm or multiple elastic arms, preferably two elastic arms with bends, and more preferably, the bending directions of the two elastic arms with bends are opposite.

[0039] The elastic member 33 can be detachably fixedly connected to the connecting member 2 or can be non-detachably fixedly connected, preferably a detachably fixedly connected.

[0040] A fixing member 5 is used to fix the earphones on the user's head, and one end of the fixing member 5 is fixedly connected to the rotating mechanism 3;

[0041] A playback mode adjustment mechanism, which is used to adjust the playback mode of the earphones;

[0042] The switching of the play mode is achieved by adjusting the position or the rotation angle of the rotating mechanism 3 .

[0043] In this embodiment, when using rotatable headphones, the speaker mechanism 1 and the connecting member 2 are rotated by rotating the rotating mechanism 3. During the rotation, the corresponding trigger signal is triggered and sent according to different positions or rotation angles, and then the trigger signal is sent to the headphone processor. The headphone processor issues a corresponding instruction by identifying the trigger signal. The headphone processor sends a playback mode matching the instruction according to the instruction. The headphone processor plays related content or adjusts the playback mode according to the playback mode.

[0044] The side of the stop member 32 close to the gear 31 is in an acute angle shape and can be stuck in the gear groove. The elastic member 33 is arranged behind the stop member 32, that is, the stop member 32 is away from the gear 31. During the rotation of the rotating mechanism 3, the elastic force of the elastic member 33 pushes the stop member 32 toward the gear groove and is stuck in the gear groove. When the user rotates the speaker mechanism 1 or the connecting member 2, the rotating mechanism 3 is driven to rotate. The stop member 32 is subjected to the pressure of the teeth on the gear 31, and the stop member 32 retracts backward. During the retraction process, the elastic member 33 is compressed, and the stop member 32 continues to move to the next gear after passing the top of the tooth. The gear groove moves, and when the rotating part rotates to the position of the next gear groove of the gear 31, the stop part 32 is pushed into the next gear groove under the action of the elastic force of the elastic part 33. The stop part 32 collides with the gear groove and makes a sound. When the rotating mechanism 3 continues to rotate, the stop part 32 collides with the gear groove in sequence along the circumferential direction of the gear 31 under the joint action of the gear 31 and the elastic part 33, and makes a clicking sound. When the rotating mechanism 3 stops rotating, the stop part 32 is stuck in the gear groove and stops. The stop part 32 and the gear groove play a positioning role to prevent the rotating part from continuing to rotate.

[0045] Due to the rotation of the rotating mechanism 3, the following usage scenarios can also be used.

[0046] In a relatively noisy environment, the user wants to shield the external noise to a certain extent, but does not want to miss other useful sounds. The user can choose to adjust only one speaker mechanism 1 to cover the corresponding ear. When the noise is mainly emitted from the left, only the left speaker mechanism 1 is adjusted to cover the left ear. When the noise is mainly emitted from the right, only the right speaker mechanism 1 is adjusted to cover the right ear.

[0047] When in a relatively quiet environment, adjust the left and right speaker mechanisms 1 so that the speaker bodies are away from the ears, avoiding ear discomfort caused by long-term wearing. The user can also hear other sounds besides the headphone sound, avoiding missing other useful sounds.

[0048] In one embodiment, a protective layer 4 is provided on the outer surface of the rotatable earphone, and the protective layer 4 covers at least the outer surface of the rotating mechanism 3. The protective layer 4 covering the outer surface of the rotating mechanism 3 is made of an elastic material, and preferably, the elastic material covering the outer surface of the rotating mechanism 3 is in a pleated shape (not shown in the drawing).

[0049] The protective layer 4 includes a first protective layer 41 and a second protective layer 42 . The first protective layer 41 is used to protect the speaker mechanism 1 , and the second protective layer 42 is used to protect the fixing member 5 .

[0050] During the rotation of the rotating mechanism 3 , the second protective layer 42 of the elastic material is elastic. The elastic material can be stretched or compressed as the rotating mechanism 3 rotates, thereby preventing the protective layer 4 from being damaged by external forces during the rotation.

[0051] Since the elastic material has a certain limit to stretching or compression, and has a certain resistance to rotation during the rotation process, and will still be damaged or unable to be compressed when the limit of the elastic material is exceeded, it is preferred to set the elastic material on the outer surface of the rotating mechanism 3 to a pleated shape. The pleated shape can increase the rotation angle of the rotating mechanism 3 and reduce the resistance of the elastic component.

[0052] In one embodiment, the play mode adjustment mechanism includes a magnet and a sensor, wherein the magnet is disposed on the connecting member 2 or the fixing member 5, and the sensor is disposed on the other of the connecting member 2 and the fixing member 5. There are at least two magnets disposed at intervals.

[0053] The headset can adjust the volume through the playback mode adjustment mechanism, can also adjust the audio playback and pause through the playback mode adjustment mechanism, and can also adjust the playback of different styles of audio through the playback mode adjustment mechanism.

[0054] The following uses the example of adjusting different styles of audio to explain in detail the principles of headphone adjustment.

[0055] A sensor is set on the connecting part 2, and a first magnet and a second magnet are set on the fixing part 5. When the user rotates the rotating mechanism 3 to a certain position, the sensor can sense the first magnet, and the sensor sends a first signal to the headphone processor. After receiving the first signal sent by the sensor, the headphone processor issues an instruction to play the first style audio, and the headphone plays the audio according to the list of the first style audio. When the user continues to rotate the rotating mechanism 3, the sensor can no longer sense the first magnet, and the headphone stops playing (the headphone can also be set to continue playing the first style audio). When the user continues to rotate the rotating mechanism 3, the sensor senses the second magnet, and the sensor sends a second signal to the headphone processor. After receiving the second signal sent by the sensor, the headphone processor issues an instruction to play the second style audio, and the headphone plays the audio according to the list of the second style audio.

[0056] The principle of adjusting the volume by rotating the rotating mechanism 3 is the same. Multiple magnets can also be set to control the volume, play mode, etc.

[0057] It should be noted that there is no limitation on the specific setting positions of the magnet and the sensor. As long as the sensor can sense the magnet and control the playback mode during the rotation of the rotating mechanism 3, it can be disconnected by continuing to rotate, and can sense the next magnet by continuing to rotate, thereby switching the playback mode.

[0058] Of course, the method of controlling the above-mentioned playback mode is not limited to the magnetic field sensing mode, and other sensing modes can also be used for control. For example, the playback mode can be controlled by the motion sensing mode. When the earphones sense that the user is in motion, the earphones play passionate music to adapt to the user's motion state. When the earphones detect that the user is stationary, the earphones switch to the soft music playback mode. The earphones can achieve this by setting a motion sensor or a speed sensor. The specific working principle is similar to the above-mentioned magnetic field sensing mode and will not be repeated here.

[0059] The headset can be set with multiple sensing modes and a selection button. Users can choose different sensing modes according to different scenarios, such as magnetic field sensing mode, motion sensing mode or infrared sensing mode, etc., which are not listed here one by one.

[0060] Furthermore, since people's heads are of different sizes, a telescopic mechanism can be provided on the connecting member 2 to control the length of the connecting member 2 so as to adapt to different people.
