[0054] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the embodiments of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0055] As shown in the background art, existing earphone cases use a combination of a hinge and / or a magnetic buckle to open and close the case lid. However, when removing or inserting earphones, especially for open-ear headphones, users need to hold the case with one hand while operating with the other, which increases the complexity of use.

[0056] In view of this, the present invention provides an earphone case that, by providing two opposing flip covers, can ensure that the earphone case has a large access space, thereby facilitating the user to take the earphones, thereby improving the user experience. By providing an opening mechanism on the two opposing side panels, and cooperating with the opening mechanism and the flip covers, the user can use the opening mechanism to open both flip covers simultaneously, ensuring that the two flip covers can be opened synchronously, allowing the user to complete the opening and closing action with one hand, without the need to additionally fix the earphone case or worry about the cover accidentally closing, thereby improving user convenience.

[0057] The following specific embodiments are used to describe in detail the technical solution of the present application and how the technical solution of the present application solves the above-mentioned technical problems. The following specific embodiments can be combined with each other, and the same or similar concepts or processes may not be repeated in some embodiments. The following embodiments of the present application are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:

[0058] It should be noted that the earphone box provided in the embodiment of the present application can be used to place various types of earphones, such as earbud-type earphones, earhook-type earphones, ear-clip-type earphones, etc.

[0059] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 、 Figure 6 As shown, the earphone box 10 of the embodiment of the present application includes a box body 100 , and the box body 100 includes a base 110 and a flip cover 120 .

[0060] The base 110 includes two side panels 111 arranged opposite each other along a first direction, and two flip covers 120 arranged opposite each other along a second direction. The flip covers 120 are connected to the base 110 and together define a receiving cavity 130 for accommodating the earphones 20. The flip covers 120 are movable relative to the base 110 to open or close the receiving cavity 130. Each side panel 111 is provided with a cover opening mechanism 112, which corresponds to each side panel 111 and cooperates with the flip covers 120 to enable movement of the flip covers 120.

[0061] During the specific implementation process, one end of the flip cover 120 can be movably connected to the base 110. For example, one end of the flip cover 120 can be hinged to the base 110. The bottom edge of the flip cover 120 can be provided with one or more hinges, one end of which can be fixed to the flip cover 120, and the other end can be fixed to the base 110. Alternatively, one end of the flip cover 120 can be slidably connected to the base 110. Sliding guide rails can be provided on both sides of the base 110, and corresponding sliders can be provided at the bottom of the flip cover 120, so that the flip cover 120 can slide on the guide rails to complete the opening and closing action.

[0062] It is understood that when the two flip covers 120 are brought closer together, the two flip covers 120 can close the accommodating cavity 130, thereby protecting the earphones 20 or the earphone slot and effectively preventing dust, moisture, and other external factors from damaging the interior of the earphone case 10. When the two flip covers 120 are moved away from each other, the two flip covers 120 can open the accommodating cavity 130, allowing the user to easily take the earphones 20.

[0063] For ease of description, Figure 4 As shown, the first direction may be defined as the X direction. In some examples, the first direction may also be the direction extending along the length of the flip cover 120. The second direction may be defined as the Y direction. In some examples, the second direction may also be the direction extending along the bottom edge of the side panel 111.

[0064] The earphone case 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application, by providing two oppositely arranged flip covers 120, can ensure that the earphone case 10 has a large access space, thereby facilitating the user to take the earphones 20, which is conducive to improving the user's experience. In addition, the earphone case 10 is suitable for accommodating larger earphones 20, thereby meeting the storage space requirements of different types of earphones 20. By providing a cover opening mechanism 112 on the two oppositely arranged side panels 111 and making the cover opening mechanism 112 and the flip covers 120 cooperate with each other in a transmission manner, the user can open the two flip covers 120 simultaneously through the cover opening mechanism 112, ensuring that the two flip covers 120 can be opened synchronously, allowing the user to complete the opening and closing action with one hand, without the need to additionally fix the earphone case 10 or worry about the cover accidentally closing, thereby improving user convenience.

[0065] In some possible implementations, see Figure 4 As shown, the flip cover 120 has locking grooves 121 at both end surfaces along the first direction, the side plate 111 defines a receiving cavity 1111, and the receiving cavity 1111 has openings 1112 at both ends along the second direction, and the openings 1112 are opposite to the locking grooves 121 along the first direction.

[0066] It can be understood that the lock slot 121 corresponds to the openings 1112 at both ends of the storage cavity 1111 along the second direction. When the flip cover 120 is closed, the lock slot 121 on the flip cover 120 can be aligned with the opening 1112 of the storage cavity 1111 in the first direction, so that the cover opening mechanism 112 can enter the lock slot 121 through the opening 1112. Specifically, when the flip cover 120 is closed, the cover opening mechanism 112 will extend into the lock slot 121 of the flip cover 120 through the opening 1112 of the base 110, thereby locking the flip cover 120 in the closed position to ensure that the earphone box 10 will not be accidentally opened during carrying, thereby protecting the internal structure of the earphone box 10 and the earphones 20 in the earphone box 10. When the earphone box 10 needs to be opened, the user triggers the cover opening mechanism 112 to cause the cover opening mechanism 112 to withdraw from the lock slot 121. When the cover opening mechanism 112 is completely out of the locking slot 121 , the flip cover 120 can be rotated around its connection point to open the earphone box 10 .

[0067] The cover opening mechanism 112 is disposed in the receiving cavity 1111 and is adapted to extend into the locking slot 121 or withdraw from the locking slot 121 through the opening 1112 to lock or unlock the flip cover 120 .

[0068] In some embodiments, the lid opening mechanism 112 can be triggered by mechanical buttons, sliding movements, induction, or magnetism. If the triggering method is mechanical, this can be achieved by providing a mechanical button on the exterior of the earphone case 10. When the user presses the button, it pushes the lid opening mechanism 112 through an internal connecting rod or spring mechanism, causing it to exit the locking slot 121, thereby unlocking the flip cover 120. After releasing the button, the lid opening mechanism 112 remains unlocked until manually closed.

[0069] When the trigger mode is sliding triggering, it can be achieved by providing a sliding switch on the outside of the earphone box 10. The user can control the movement of the cover opening mechanism 112 by sliding the switch. The sliding switch can be designed to operate in one direction or two directions, so that the user can easily lock and unlock the flip cover 120.

[0070] When the triggering method is inductive, this can be achieved by providing a sensing area on the outside of the earphone box 10. The sensing area can be a capacitive touch sensor. During use, when the user touches or presses the sensing area, the circuit built into the sensing area detects the touch signal and, based on it, uses a motor or other driving device to move the cover opening mechanism 112, causing it to withdraw from the locking slot 121, thereby unlocking the flip cover 120.

[0071] When the triggering method is magnetic, it can be achieved by setting a magnetic device inside the earphone box 10 and cooperating with the magnetic component on the cover opening mechanism 112. During use, the user can change the magnetic field of the magnetic device through specific operations (such as pressing a certain area), thereby moving the magnetic component and driving the cover opening mechanism 112 to unlock the flip cover 120.

[0072] Thus, by locating the lid opening mechanism 112 within the storage cavity 1111 and being adapted to extend into or exit the locking slot 121 of the flip cover 120 through the opening 1112 of the storage cavity 1111, the lid opening mechanism 112 can remain within the case 100 while the user is removing the earphones 20. This not only maintains a simple and aesthetically pleasing appearance but also avoids the risk of scratches caused by partially exposed lid opening mechanism 112. Furthermore, by hiding the lid opening mechanism 112 within the case 100, it reduces wear and damage to the lid opening mechanism 112 from the external environment, thereby extending its service life.

[0073] In some possible implementations, see Figure 4 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8As shown, the storage chamber 1111 has a first side wall 1111a facing the accommodating chamber 130 in a first direction, and a second side wall 1111b facing away from the accommodating chamber 130. An opening 1112 is provided on the first side wall 1111a, and a first movable hole 1113 is provided on the second side wall 1111b extending along the first direction. The opening 1112 on the first side wall 1111a corresponds to the locking slot 121 on the flip cover 120 in the first direction.

[0074] It is understood that the first side wall 1111a is used to provide a support structure and has an opening 1112 to allow the locking end 1142 of the cover opening mechanism 112 to enter or exit the locking slot 121 through the opening 1112, thereby achieving the subsequent locking or unlocking of the flip cover 120. The second side wall 1111b is also used to provide a support structure and has a first movable hole 1113 extending along the first direction to allow the trigger member 113 of the cover opening mechanism 112 to enter the storage cavity 1111 through the first movable hole 1113 to change the position of the locking member 114.

[0075] In some embodiments, the storage chamber 1111 may further include a top wall, connecting the tops of the first side wall 1111a and the second side wall 1111b to form the top wall of the storage chamber 1111. The top wall may be flat or designed to fit the shape of the lid opening mechanism 112. The storage chamber 1111 may further include a bottom wall, connecting the bottoms of the first side wall 1111a and the second side wall 1111b to form the bottom wall of the storage chamber 1111. The bottom wall may be flat or designed to fit the shape of the lid opening mechanism 112. The top wall, bottom wall, first side wall 1111a, and second side wall 1111b together enclose a complete storage chamber 1111.

[0076] Among them, see Figure 5-8 As shown, the cover opening mechanism 112 includes a trigger member 113, which is movably disposed in the first movable hole 1113 along a first direction. The cover opening mechanism 112 also includes a locking member 114, which is two locking members 114 arranged opposite to each other in a second direction. Each locking member 114 is provided with a transmission end 1141 and a locking end 1142 opposite to each other in the second direction. The transmission ends 1141 of the two locking members 114 are connected to the trigger member 113, and the trigger member 113 is used to drive the two locking members 114 to move synchronously, so that the locking ends 1142 of the two locking members 114 are synchronously inserted into or withdrawn from the lock slot 121.

[0077] In some embodiments, the trigger member 113 can be configured as a first movable hole 1113 provided on the second side wall 1111b of the storage cavity 1111, movably along a first direction (X direction). The trigger member 113 can be a button, a slider, or any component capable of generating linear motion through user operation. For example, the trigger member 113 can be a button. When the user pushes the button along the first direction (X direction), the trigger member 113 drives the locking member 114 connected thereto to move.

[0078] In some embodiments, each locking member 114 is provided with a transmission end 1141 and a locking end 1142 that are opposed to each other along the second direction. The locking member 114 can be wedge-shaped or have other shapes to ensure that it remains firmly fixed when entering the lock slot 121, while smoothly exiting the lock slot 121 when unlocking is required. Furthermore, the transmission end 1141 is adjacent to and connected to the trigger member 113. Thus, when the trigger member 113 is operated by a user, the transmission end 1141 can effectively convert the movement of the trigger member 113 into movement of the locking member 114 itself. Furthermore, the shape and size of the locking end 1142 can match the lock slot 121 on the flip cover 120. When the flip cover 120 is in a closed state, the locking end 1142 can be fully inserted into the lock slot 121, thereby preventing the flip cover 120 from accidentally opening; when the user performs an unlocking operation through the trigger member 113, the locking end 1142 can withdraw from the lock slot 121 to allow the flip cover 120 to rotate freely.

[0079] In some possible implementations, the locking end 1142 of each locking member 114 is provided with a locking hook.

[0080] It is understood that in some implementations, in order to enhance the reliability and stability of the locking between the locking member 114 and the flip cover 120, a locking hook is provided on the locking end 1142 of each locking member 114. This design helps ensure that the flip cover 120 remains closed more securely in the closed state and does not accidentally open during carrying.

[0081] Optionally, the locking hook can be in the shape of a barb, allowing it to securely fit into the locking slot 121 of the flip cover 120. When the locking end 1142 of the locking member 114 is inserted into the locking slot 121, the locking hook will hook onto the edge of the locking slot 121, forming a stable connection. The specific shape and size of the locking hook can be determined based on the locking slot 121 and are not specifically limited in this application.

[0082] In this way, through the design of the trigger member 113 and the locking member 114, the user can easily operate the earphone box 10 with one hand. The trigger member 113 (such as a button or a slider) is configured to be movably provided along the first direction (X direction) through the first movable hole 1113 on the second side wall 1111b in the storage cavity 1111. When the user operates the trigger member 113, the trigger member 113 can simultaneously drive the two oppositely arranged locking members 114 to move synchronously, thereby ensuring that the two flip covers 120 can be opened or closed at the same time, avoiding the imbalance problem caused by the step-by-step operation, and allowing the user to open the earphone box 10 quickly and smoothly.

[0083] In some possible implementations, see Figure 7 、 Figure 8 As shown, the storage cavity 1111 is provided with two pivot shafts 1114 corresponding to the locking member 114, and the part of each locking member 114 located between the transmission end 1141 and the locking end 1142 is provided with a pivot hole 1143, and the pivot shaft 1114 is passed through the pivot hole 1143, and the trigger member 113 is used to drive the locking member 114 to rotate around the pivot shaft 1114.

[0084] In some embodiments, the pivot shaft 1114 is disposed inside the storage chamber 1111, between the first side wall 1111a and the second side wall 1111b. Specifically, it is fixed to the top and bottom walls of the storage chamber 1111 to ensure that it is stable and does not move. For example, the pivot shaft 1114 can be fixed to the top and bottom walls of the storage chamber 1111 through an embedded design, or installed by screws, rivets, or other fixing methods. This ensures that the pivot shaft 1114 will not loosen or shift during use. Furthermore, the pivot hole 1143 is located in the middle of the locking member 114 for passing the pivot shaft 1114. The size of the pivot hole 1143 is slightly larger than the diameter of the pivot shaft 1114 to allow the locking member 114 to rotate freely around the pivot shaft 1114, but can be kept tight enough to prevent unnecessary shaking.

[0085] In some possible implementations, the pivot axis 1114 extends along the third direction, and the third direction, the second direction, and the first direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0086] For ease of description, Figure 4 As shown, the third direction may be defined as the Z direction. Of course, in some examples, the third direction may also be the extension direction of the height of the side plate 111 , or a direction perpendicular to the rotation plane of the locking member 114 .

[0087] In a specific implementation, when a user operates the trigger member 113 (e.g., by pressing a button or pushing a slider), the linear motion of the trigger member 113 is transmitted to the transmission end 1141 of the locking member 114 via a connecting rod or lever structure. Consequently, the locking member 114 is pushed by the transmission end 1141, causing it to rotate counterclockwise or clockwise around the pivot axis 1114. As the locking member 114 rotates, the locking end 1142 gradually withdraws from the locking slot 121. After the locking end 1142 completely withdraws from the locking slot 121, the flip cover 120 can be freely opened.

[0088] Thus, by disposing a pivot shaft 1114 corresponding to the locking member 114 within the storage cavity 1111 and connecting each locking member 114 to the pivot shaft 1114 via the pivot hole 1143 thereon, the trigger member 113 can drive the locking member 114 to rotate about the pivot shaft 1114, thereby allowing the locking end 1142 to quickly insert or exit the lock slot 121, thereby achieving efficient synchronous opening and closing. In addition, the pivot shaft 1114 extends along a third direction, and the third direction, the second direction, and the first direction are mutually perpendicular. This three-dimensional arrangement enhances the structural stability of the entire lid opening mechanism 112.

[0089] In some possible implementations, see Figure 6-8 As shown, the first side wall 1111 a is recessed toward a side away from the second side wall 1111 b to form an escape recess 1116 for escaping the transmission end 1141 .

[0090] It is understood that the main function of the avoidance recess 1116 is to provide sufficient space for the transmission end 1141 of the locking member 114 to ensure that it does not interfere with the first side wall 1111a during movement. This ensures that the locking member 114 can smoothly rotate around the pivot axis 1114, thereby realizing the normal operation of the cover opening mechanism 112.

[0091] Thus, by providing the avoidance recess 1116, additional space is provided for the driving end 1141 of the locking member 114, ensuring that the driving end 1141 is not obstructed by the first side wall 1111a during movement. This allows the locking member 114 to rotate more smoothly about the pivot axis 1114, improving the operating efficiency and reliability of the entire lid opening mechanism 112. Furthermore, providing the avoidance recess 1116 on the first side wall 1111a optimizes the internal space layout without increasing the overall size of the earphone case 10, making the earphone case 10 more compact and more elegant in appearance.

[0092] In some possible implementations, see Figure 7 、 Figure 8As shown, the transmission end 1141 of the locking member 114 is provided with a connecting hole 1141a, which is in the shape of a strip extending along the second direction. The end of the trigger member 113 facing the storage cavity 1111 is provided with a connecting shaft 1131, which passes through the connecting hole 1141a.

[0093] In some embodiments, the length and width of the connecting hole 1141a can be determined based on the specific size and range of motion of the locking member 114 to ensure that the locking member 114 has sufficient room to move when rotating about the pivot axis 1114. The diameter of the connecting shaft 1131 is slightly smaller than the width of the connecting hole 1141a to ensure that the locking member 114 can rotate freely about the pivot axis 1114.

[0094] Furthermore, the connecting shaft 1131 can be located at the center of the connecting holes 1141a of the two locking members 114, thereby allowing the connecting holes 1141a of the two locking members 114 to be nested on the connecting shaft 1131, forming a stable connection structure. Furthermore, in the initial state, the two locking members 114 are partially intersecting and form a certain angle with the second direction, so that they can smoothly rotate about the pivot axis 1114 when the trigger member 113 is operated.

[0095] In this way, through the cooperation between the connecting shaft 1131 and the connecting hole 1141a, the trigger member 113 can simultaneously drive the two locking members 114 to rotate around the pivot shaft 1114, thereby realizing a fast and reliable synchronous opening and closing function. The overlapping arrangement and partial cross design of the two locking members 114 ensure their coordination and consistency during the movement, and improve the smoothness and stability of opening and closing. In addition, when the user operates the trigger member 113, the partially crossed state of the two locking members 114 enables the locking members 114 to have a certain preset angle in the initial position. In this way, when the trigger member 113 pushes the connecting shaft 1131, the locking members 114 can start to rotate more smoothly, avoiding the jamming or instability that may occur when the locking members 114 start to rotate from a parallel or overlapping state.

[0096] In some possible implementations, see Figure 4 、 Figure 7 、 Figure 8 As shown, the first side wall 1111a is further provided with second movable holes 1115 extending in the second direction, and there are two second movable holes 1115 corresponding to the flip cover 120. The cover opening mechanism 112 also includes a pushing assembly 115, which is movably disposed in the second movable holes 1115 along the second direction. One end of the pushing assembly 115 abuts against the locking member 114, and the other end is detachably engaged with the flip cover 120. The pushing assembly 115 is configured to move along the second movable holes 1115 under the push of the locking member 114 when the locking member 114 rotates about the pivot shaft 1114, thereby pushing open the flip cover 120.

[0097] In some embodiments, one end of the pushing assembly 115 can directly abut against the locking member 114. When the locking member 114 rotates about the pivot shaft 1114, the movement of the locking member 114 can be transmitted to the pushing assembly 115, causing the pushing assembly 115 to move along the second movable hole 1115. Alternatively, the pushing assembly 115 can also be connected to the locking member 114 through other mechanical connection methods. For example, the pushing assembly 115 can be connected to the locking member 114 through a connecting rod, that is, one end of the connecting rod is fixed to the locking member 114, and the other end is fixed to the pushing assembly 115. Alternatively, one end of the pushing assembly 115 can be a slider, and the locking member 114 is provided with a guide rail. The slider can slide on the guide rail, thereby achieving synchronous movement of the pushing assembly 115 and the locking member 114.

[0098] In practice, as the locking member 114 rotates, one end of the push assembly 115 is pushed by the locking member 114 and moves along the second movable hole 1115. The other end of the push assembly 115 pushes the flip cover 120, opening it. Through the cooperation between the trigger 113 and the locking member 114, and the cooperation between the locking member 114 and the push assembly 115, the flip cover 120 can be ejected instantly when the user opens the earphone case 10 via the trigger 113, improving the opening speed.

[0099] In this way, when the user operates the trigger member 113, the linear movement of the trigger member 113 is transmitted to the transmission end 1141 of the two locking members 114 through the connecting shaft 1131, so that the locking member 114 rotates around the pivot shaft 1114, and then the locking end 1142 can directly push the pushing assembly 115, thereby ensuring that the flip cover 120 can pop open instantly, improving the response speed and enhancing the user experience.

[0100] In some possible implementations, see Figure 7 、 Figure 8 As shown, the ejection assembly 115 includes a ejector rod 1151 , which includes a first end 1151 a facing the locking member 114 and a second end 1151 b facing the flip cover 120 , wherein the first end 1151 a is formed into a spherical shape.

[0101] It is understood that the spherical first end 1151a abuts the locking end 1142 of the locking member 114, providing a larger contact area and a smoother moving surface. Furthermore, the spherical shape of the first end 1151a of the push assembly 115 reduces friction with the locking member 114, resulting in smoother force transmission and faster response.

[0102] In some possible implementations, see Figure 7 、 Figure 8As shown, the pushing assembly 115 further includes an elastic buffer pad 1152 , which is disposed at the second end 1151 b of the pushing rod 1151 .

[0103] It will be appreciated that an elastic cushion 1152 is provided at the second end 1151b of the push rod 1151 for contacting the flip cover 120. The elastic cushion 1152 provides a cushion when the push rod 1151 pushes the flip cover 120, reducing the impact force, protecting the flip cover 120 from damage, and improving the smoothness and comfort of the cover opening process. The elastic cushion 1152 can be made of rubber, silicone, or other elastic materials.

[0104] In addition, since the end size of the top rod 1151 is small, when the flip cover 120 is opened, the second end 1151b of the top rod 1151 extends out from the first side wall 1111a, which may scratch the user's hands or hook clothes. In this embodiment, an elastic buffer pad 1152 is provided at the second end 1151b of the top rod 1151, which can eliminate the sharp corners of the end of the top rod 1151, better protect the user, prevent the user's hands from being scratched or clothes from being hooked, and help improve the user experience.

[0105] In some possible implementations, see Figure 7 、 Figure 8 As shown, the locking member 114 includes a first movable segment 1144 and a second movable segment 1145. The first movable segment 1144 is located on a side of the pivot shaft 1114 close to the trigger member 113, and the second movable segment 1145 is located on a side of the pivot shaft 1114 away from the trigger member 113. The pushing assembly 115 is adapted to abut against the first movable segment 1144.

[0106] As will be understood, the first movable segment 1144 is located on the side of the pivot shaft 1114 near the trigger member 113. The first movable segment 1144 is connected to the trigger member 113 via the connecting shaft 1131. When the user operates the trigger member 113, the first movable segment 1144 rotates about the pivot shaft 1114. The second movable segment 1145 is located on the side of the pivot shaft 1114 away from the trigger member 113. The second movable segment 1145 is connected to the locking end 1142. When the first movable segment 1144 rotates, the second movable segment 1145 also rotates. The transmission end 1141 is the portion where the first movable segment 1144 connects to the trigger member 113 and is provided with a connecting hole 1141a for engaging with the connecting shaft 1131 of the trigger member 113. The locking end 1142 is located at the end of the second movable segment 1145 and is provided with a barbed locking hook for engaging with the locking slot 121 of the flip cover 120.

[0107] It is understood that one end of the push assembly 115 abuts against the first movable segment 1144. Thus, when the locking member 114 rotates about the pivot shaft 1114, the first movable segment 1144 can directly push the push assembly 115. Without any other transmission components in between, the response speed is faster, ensuring that the flip cover 120 can be opened quickly and improving the user experience. Furthermore, by directly pushing the push assembly 115 through the first movable segment 1144, the force transmission path is minimized, reducing energy loss and improving force transmission efficiency.

[0108] During the specific implementation process, in the initial state, the earphone box 10 is in a closed state. At this time, the locking end 1142 of the locking member 114 is clamped into the locking groove 121 of the flip cover 120 through the lock hook, keeping the earphone box 10 locked. The first end 1151a of the pushing assembly 115 abuts against the first movable section 1144 of the locking member 114, and the second end 1151b contacts the flip cover 120 but does not apply pressure. When the user operates the trigger member 113, the linear motion of the trigger member 113 is transmitted to the transmission end 1141 of the locking member 114 through the connecting shaft 1131, thereby causing the first movable section 1144 of the locking member 114 to rotate around the pivot shaft 1114, thereby driving the second movable section 1145 to rotate around the pivot shaft 1114. When the first movable section 1144 of the locking member 114 rotates, its surface begins to push the first end 1151a of the pushing assembly 115 in the second direction, causing the pushing assembly 115 to move along the second movable hole 1115, and finally, its second end 1151b pushes the flip cover 120. Furthermore, as the locking member 114 rotates about the pivot axis 1114, the locking end 1142 of the locking member 114 leaves the locking slot 121 of the flip cover 120, achieving quick opening of the earphone case 10. When the user closes the flip cover 120, the locking end 1142 of the locking member 114 reenters the locking slot 121, and when the flip cover 120 is closed, it pushes the second end 1151b of the pushing assembly 115 in the second direction, thereby resetting the pushing assembly 115.

[0109] Thus, the segmented design of the first movable section 1144 and the second movable section 1145 simplifies the overall structure of the earphone box 10 and reduces mechanical complexity. This design not only reduces production costs but also simplifies the assembly process.

[0110] In some possible implementations, see Figure 7 、 Figure 8 As shown, the cross-sectional width of the first movable segment 1144 along the first direction is greater than the cross-sectional width of the second movable segment 1145 along the first direction.

[0111] It can be understood that the cross-sectional width of the first movable segment 1144 along the first direction is greater than the cross-sectional width of the second movable segment 1145 along the first direction, which helps reduce the space required for the first movable segment 1144 of the locking member 114 to move. In other words, the larger cross-sectional width allows the first movable segment 1144 to have a smaller range of motion when rotating about the pivot axis 1114. In other words, the larger cross-sectional width provides a greater leverage effect, enabling sufficient force transmission even with small angle changes. Furthermore, the first movable segment 1144 is located on the side of the pivot axis 1114 closest to the trigger member 113 and is the primary force-bearing component. Increasing its cross-sectional width enhances its structural strength and reduces deformation or damage caused by excessive force. Furthermore, the larger cross-sectional width of the first movable segment 1144 provides a larger contact area, enabling more stable contact between the first movable segment 1144 and the push assembly 115, effectively transmitting force and ensuring a smooth and reliable opening process. In addition, the larger cross-sectional width of the first movable section 1144 helps to disperse the force transmitted to the ejection assembly 115 , reduces stress concentration, and prolongs the service life of the locking member 114 and the ejection assembly 115 .

[0112] In some possible implementations, see Figure 2 、 Figure 3 As shown, the base 110 further includes a bottom plate 1101, which is disposed at the bottom ends of the two side plates 111 to connect the two side plates 111. The two flip covers 120 are respectively pivotally connected to the two side edges of the bottom plate 1101 along the second direction, so that the flip covers 120 can rotate relative to the base 110.

[0113] Thus, by placing the bottom plate 1101 at the bottom ends of the two side plates 111 to connect the two side plates 111, a stable base 110 structure is formed, thereby improving the rigidity and stability of the overall structure of the earphone box 10. The flip cover 120 is pivotally connected to the bottom plate 1101, ensuring the smoothness and reliability of the flip cover 120 during opening and closing, and reducing the problem of shaking or misalignment caused by unstable connection.

[0114] See also Figure 1 、 Figure 4 、 Figure 5 As shown, an embodiment of the present application further provides an earphone system, comprising: any one of the above-mentioned earphone boxes 10; an earphone 20, and the earphone 20 is arranged in a removable and placeable manner in the accommodating cavity 130.

[0115] Among them, the structure and working principle of the earphone box 10 are described in detail in the above embodiment and will not be repeated here.

[0116] In the embodiment of the present application, the earphone 20 can be placed in the accommodating cavity 130 at any time for storage and charging. When the earphone 20 needs to be used, the earphone 20 can be taken out by simply operating the trigger 113.

[0117] In summary, the earphone case 10 and the earphone system of the embodiment of the present application, through the two relatively arranged flip covers 120, can ensure that the earphone case 10 has a large access space, thereby facilitating the user to take the earphones 20, and also making the earphone case 10 suitable for accommodating larger earphones 20, which is conducive to improving the user's experience. By providing a cover opening mechanism 112 on the two relatively arranged side panels 111, and making the cover opening mechanism 112 and the flip covers 120 cooperate in transmission, the user can open the two flip covers 120 simultaneously through the cover opening mechanism 112, ensuring that the two flip covers 120 can be opened synchronously, allowing the user to complete the opening and closing action with one hand, without the need to additionally fix the earphone case 10 or worry about the cover accidentally closing, thereby improving the convenience of user use.
