[0033] Please refer to Figures 4 to 13 As shown, it shows the specific structure of an embodiment of the present utility model.

[0034] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "up", "down", "left", "right", etc. indicate directions or positional relationships based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction. Therefore, they cannot be understood as a limitation on the present invention.

[0035] Disclosed is an ear-hook OWS headset, which is a Bluetooth headset, comprising an OWS headset body 1 and an ear hook 2 connected to the upper end of the OWS headset body 1. The ear hook 2 is generally C-shaped, and the lower portion of the ear hook 2 is used for a built-in battery 17. The battery can also be installed inside the OWS headset body 1. The OWS headset body 1 has two roughly opposite sides: a side facing the ear 100 and a side away from the ear 100. The OWS headset body 1 includes a shell and a speaker 15 arranged in the shell. A sound outlet 6 is provided on the side of the shell facing the ear 100; the upper portion of the shell facing the ear 100 has a first surface 3 corresponding to or contacting the part of the helix 101 of the user's ear 100; the lower portion of the shell facing the ear 100 is provided with a protrusion 4. The protrusion 4 is closer to the ear canal of the user's ear 100 than the first surface 3. In the left and right direction, that is, the direction facing the ear 100, the sound outlet 6 maintains a distance from the first surface 3. The sound outlet 6 is provided on the raised portion 4, and the raised portion 4 extends into the concha cavity 102 of the user's ear 100, which is equivalent to the surface of the raised portion 4 serving as the second surface 5 to form contact and positioning with the inner wall surface of the concha cavity 102. The sound outlet 6 is provided toward the ear canal of the user's ear 100, so that the ear-hook OWS earphones are more stable when worn and not easy to loosen and fall off, and reduce sound leakage, improve privacy, and at the same time reduce sound quality loss and improve sound experience. Figure 8 As shown, with the upper and lower length extension axis L of the OWS earphone body 1 as the 0° reference line, the sound output angle of the sound hole 6 is 35±3°, and 35° is the optimal angle.

[0036] The raised portion 4 has a sound cavity formed within it, shaped like the outer shape of the raised portion 4. The speaker is mounted within the housing, with the sound-emitting side of the speaker facing the sound cavity. Preferably, the cross-section of the sound cavity is gradually reduced along the sound path, that is, its cross-section is minimized toward the sound outlet. This improves sound quality and facilitates manufacturing. The sound outlet 6 is located near the upper end of the raised portion 4, so that the sound outlet 6 is approximately centered within the OWS earphone body 1. When worn, the lower end of the raised portion 4 extends beyond the lower end of the base of the OWS earphone body 1 (the extension portion W may further extend beyond the front and rear ends of the base) and rests within the concha cavum 102 of the user's ear 100. The upper end of the raised portion 4 extends into the inner side of the tragus 103 of the user's ear 100, so that the sound outlet 6 faces the ear canal opening of the user's ear 100.

[0037] In this embodiment, the housing includes a plastic outer shell 7, a plastic middle shell 8 and a plastic inner shell 9. The plastic outer shell 7 and the plastic middle shell 8 are stacked and assembled to form a first housing module.

[0038] The ear hook 2 is connected to the upper end of the first housing module. A mainboard 11 and a magnet 12 are disposed within the cavity enclosed by the outer plastic shell 7 and the middle plastic shell 8. The first surface 3 is formed on the upper inner surface of the middle plastic shell 8. Two charging springs 13 are exposed on the first surface 3. A speaker clearance 14 is provided on the lower inner surface of the middle plastic shell 8. The inner plastic shell 9 is assembled to the speaker clearance 14 of the middle plastic shell 8. In other embodiments, the inner shell can also be detachably assembled to the middle shell. The speaker 15 is disposed corresponding to the speaker clearance 14. The raised portion 4 is formed on the inner plastic shell 9. The sound cavity is located within the inner plastic shell 9. The end of the plastic inner shell 9 facing the plastic middle shell 8 is provided with a splicing end 10. The splicing end 10 has a splicing ring and an internal mounting step 16. The speaker 15 is installed into the interior of the plastic inner shell 9 through the splicing end 10 and is positioned on the mounting step 16. Furthermore, the shell is typically provided with accessories such as a noise reduction mesh 18, an air vent mesh 19, and a steel mesh 20.

[0039] Combine Figure 9 as well as Figure 11-13As shown, when the ear-hook OWS earphone is worn, the first surface 3 of the OWS earphone body 1 corresponds to or contacts the helix crus of the user's ear 100, and the protrusion 4 extends into the concha of the user's ear 100, forming contact and positioning with the inner wall of the concha. Specifically, the lower end of the protrusion 4 rests against the concha of the user's ear 100, and the upper end of the protrusion 4 extends into the inner side of the tragus of the user's ear 100, so that the sound outlet 6 faces the ear canal opening of the user's ear 100, taking into account the advantages of wearing stability, reducing sound leakage, and reducing sound quality loss. Moreover, it is easy to produce and manufacture, mainly by improving the design of the shell structure. The traditional shell is equivalent to two pieces, a plastic outer shell 7 and a plastic inner shell 9, and the shapes of the two are basically the same, so as to assemble to form a roughly long strip of OWS earphone body 1. In this embodiment, the traditional plastic inner shell 9 is improved into two pieces: a new plastic middle shell 8 and a plastic inner shell 9. The new plastic inner shell 9 can be slightly modified so that the same earphone can obtain different sizes of protrusions 4 designs. Of course, the shell becomes three-piece, and the design and matching of the three pieces become more flexible and diversified. The material of the inner shell is the same as that of the middle shell and the outer shell, or the material of the inner shell is different from that of the outer shell, and the material of the inner shell is the same as or different from that of the middle shell. Because these are over-ear headphones, the weight of the headphones is primarily borne by the earhook 2 and the top of the ear 100. While the lower end of the raised portion 4 rests against the concha of the user's ear 100, the upper end of the raised portion 4 extends into the inner side of the tragus of the user's ear 100. This prevents the OWS headphone body 1 from causing pain or squeezing of the ear 100. In other embodiments, the inner shell can be designed as a soft shell (or partially soft, for example, the joint between the inner shell and the middle shell is hard, while the rest of the inner shell is soft) to further enhance the user experience.

[0040] The design focus of the present invention is that it is mainly through the first surface 3 provided in the upper area of the shell facing the ear 100 side, the lower area of the shell facing the ear 100 side is provided with a protrusion 4, and the sound hole 6 is provided on the protrusion 4. When worn, the protrusion 4 extends into the concha cavity of the user's ear 100, and the sound hole 6 is provided toward the ear canal of the user's ear 100. In this way, the ear-hook OWS earphones are more stable when worn and are not easy to loosen and fall off. In addition, sound leakage is reduced, privacy is improved, and at the same time, sound quality loss is reduced and sound experience is improved.

[0041] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the technical scope of the present invention. Therefore, any minor modifications, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention are still within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
