Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of earphones, in particular to an earphone with a vibrator. Background Art
[0002] Earphones with vibrators embody a very strong humanistic care, helping people with hearing impairments to "feel" music like normal people. This type of earphone usually refers to bone conduction earphones, and its working principle is completely different from the traditional earphones we usually use. Bone conduction earphones transmit sound through the temporal bone of the head and transmit the sound to the inner ear. The sound unit of the earphone will vibrate, guide the sound into the bony labyrinth through the skull, and then transmit it to the inner ear lymph, and finally stimulate the cochlear organ and auditory nerve, and be directly received by the auditory center of the brain. This process is actually a way to convert sound signals into mechanical vibrations and transmit them through the bones.
[0003] Most of the headphones with vibrators on the market have non-retractable vibrators that are protruding and can only be used by deaf people, but not by the general public. The scope of application of such headphones is relatively narrow.
[0004] For example, Chinese patent application number CN202021842667.3 discloses a bone conduction headset characterized by comprising a headset housing and a bone conduction vibrator; the bone conduction vibrator is housed within the headset housing and is used to vibrate and transmit sound; the headset housing comprises a first housing, with a first receiving groove and a second receiving groove formed on either side of the first housing, the first receiving groove and the second receiving groove being interconnected, the first receiving groove being used to receive the bone conduction vibrator, and the second receiving groove being used to receive a battery. The vibrator protrudes and cannot be retracted, making it unusable as a standard headset, which leads to the aforementioned problems and makes it suitable for a limited number of people.
[0005] Another example is an earphone with a composite vibrator head disclosed in Chinese patent application number CN202321958854.1, which is characterized by including a vibrator end with a vibrator inside, the vibrator end including a vibrator cover for transmitting the vibrator vibration to the user's head, and the vibrator cover (1) having a flexible sealing portion at the edge close to the user's head. This type of earphone can also only be used by deaf people and is not suitable for the general public. Utility Model Content
