Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automated production equipment, in particular to a telephone headset wire control box and a telephone headset. Background Art

[0002] To ensure the convenience of calls, the inline control box of a headset must accommodate multiple buttons within a limited space. This allows multiple commonly used button functions to be activated by simply pressing a finger within a small area without moving the hand, improving work efficiency. Furthermore, lighting effects should be added to important buttons to help quickly identify their functions and reduce errors caused by incorrect operation. Generally, the closer the buttons are to one end of the inline control box, the more convenient it is for close-range operation.

[0003] Currently, there are two designs for the inline control buttons on the headsets on the market:

[0004] One approach is to design the wire control and buttons to be relatively small so that multiple commonly used button functions can be realized by pressing back and forth with one finger in a smaller range, thereby achieving the convenience of using the wire control box. However, this is not ergonomic. Since fingers are much larger than such buttons, long-term and frequent use of such small buttons will cause discomfort to the fingers.

[0005] Another method is to arrange multiple buttons side by side in the wire control box. In this way, the distance between the multiple buttons will be far, and the fingers need to move a long distance to realize the button function. For wire controls such as telephone headsets that frequently use button functions, work efficiency will be reduced and hands will easily become tired. Utility Model Content

[0036] To make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. The described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments.

[0037] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but rather merely represents selected embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by a person of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0038] Example 1:

[0039] Please see the attached Figure 1 The telephone headset inline control box in this embodiment includes a box body 100, which is provided with a key slot 200 for mounting a key module 300. The key module 300 is disposed in the key slot 200. In actual operation scenarios, telephone operators adjust the volume, connect, and hang up calls by operating the key module 300.

[0040] In some possible implementations, the key module 300 can be movably snapped into the key slot 200; in other possible implementations, the key module 300 can also be fixed in the key slot 200 by screws or other fixing members, which will not be detailed or limited here.

[0041] In the description of this embodiment, the key module 300 includes a volume button 310 and a call button 320. The volume button 310 includes a volume up button 311 and a volume down button 312. The volume up button 311 and the volume down button 312 are used to adjust the volume of the traffic headset. The call button 320 is used to answer or hang up a call. When in a call state, pressing the call button 320 will cause the traffic headset system to execute a hang-up command. When in a call waiting state, pressing the call button 320 will cause the traffic headset to execute a call answering command.

[0042] In the further description of this embodiment, a foot structure 330 is provided on both sides of the middle of the volume up key 311 and the volume down key 312. The foot structure 330 is clamped in the key slot 200. The volume up key 311 and the volume down key 312 are clamped in the key slot 200 through the foot structure 330 to form a seesaw structure.

[0043] Specifically, the volume up button 311 and the volume down button 312 are both provided with electrical contacts at the locations where they contact the key slot 200. When the staff member is not operating the key module, the volume up button 311 and the volume down button 312 are both suspended relative to their corresponding electrical contacts. When the staff member presses the volume up button 311, the volume up button 311 contacts its corresponding electrical contact. At the same time, because the volume up button 311 and the volume down button 312 are engaged with the key slot 200 via the foot-stepping structure 330 to form a seesaw structure, when the volume up button 311 contacts its corresponding electrical contact, the volume down button 312 tilts up, away from the point contact corresponding to the volume down button 312. Similarly, when a staff member presses the volume-down key 312, the volume-down key 312 contacts its corresponding electrical contact. At the same time, because the volume-down key 312 and the volume-up key 311 are connected to the key slot 200 via the foot-stepping structure 330 to form a seesaw structure, when the volume-down key 312 contacts its corresponding electrical contact, the volume-up key 311 tilts up and away from the point contact corresponding to the volume-up key 311. This design of setting the volume-up key 311 and the volume-down key 312 as a seesaw structure can effectively prevent staff from mistakenly pressing the volume-up and volume-down keys 312 at the same time, causing the system to issue an erroneous command. It also improves the staff's user experience.

[0044] As a further description of this embodiment, the call button 320 is located between the volume up button 311 and the volume down button 312. In one embodiment, the volume up button 311 and the volume down button 312 are designed in an "O" shape, and the call button 320 is located between the volume up button 311 and the volume down button 312. The call button 320 is designed in a circular shape. In this case, the entire key module 300 is also circular, and the key slot 200 is also circular. In another embodiment, the volume up button 311 and the volume down button 312 are designed in an "O" shape, and the call button 320 is located between the volume up button 311 and the volume down button 312. The call button 320 is designed in a square shape. In this case, the key module 300 is square, and the key slot 200 is also square. The above implementations are merely examples of the key module shape design of this embodiment, and the present invention does not specifically limit the key module shape.

[0045] Moreover, the key module of this embodiment is novel in design and reasonably arranged, so that multiple commonly used button functions can be realized by pressing back and forth with one finger in a smaller range. This design greatly improves the working efficiency of the telephone headset and has strong practical and economic value.

[0046] Example 2:

[0047] This embodiment provides a telephone headset wire control box. The telephone headset wire control box of this embodiment 2 is further improved on the basis of embodiment 1. In this embodiment, the call button 320 of the telephone headset wire control box is provided with a snap-in groove 321 on both sides, and the button groove 200 is provided with a snap-in protrusion 210. The call button 320 is snapped into the button groove 200 through the snap-in groove 321 and the snap-in protrusion 210.

[0048] In one embodiment, a call button 320 of the headset control box is provided with snap-fit ​​protrusions 210 on both sides, and a snap-fit ​​groove 321 is provided in the key slot 200 . The call button 320 is snap-fitted in the key slot 200 through the snap-fit ​​groove 321 and the snap-fit ​​protrusions 210 .

[0049] In the description of this embodiment, the headset wired control box further includes a light guide 400, which is provided between the key module and the box body. The box body includes a wired control upper cover 110 and a wired control lower cover 120, which are snap-connected.

[0050] In the further description of this embodiment, the call button 320 is installed in the wire control cover 110, and the light-transmitting logo design is arranged in the middle. The foot design of the volume button 310 deviates from the middle position to prevent the light from being blocked in the middle of the logo.

[0051] In one embodiment, the telephone headset wire control box also includes a diffuser 700. During the assembly operation, the diffuser 700 is inserted into the wire control cover 110 and fixed. As a preferred embodiment, a milky white diffuser film is affixed to both sides of the translucent diffuser 700, which can disperse light and bright spots when LED lighting is applied, and achieve uniform lighting.

[0052] In one embodiment, the light guide 400 is strip-shaped and surrounds the key slot 200 to achieve uniform light guidance, thereby achieving a better visual effect. It should be noted that the strip-shaped light guide 400 is an optional implementation of this embodiment, and the light guide 400 can also be designed into other shapes, which will not be detailed here and are not limited to.

[0053] In one embodiment, as an optional implementation, the wired control upper cover 110 and the wired control lower cover 120 can be bonded by glue or fixed by screws. The fixing method of the wired control upper cover 110 and the wired control lower cover 120 is not described in detail and is not limited here.

[0054] In one embodiment, a PCB 500 is positioned between the remote's upper cover 110 and lower cover 120. One end of the PCB 500 is connected to an adapter cable 600, which passes through one end of the housing. In this embodiment, the PCB 500 is integrated within the remote's upper cover 110 and features multiple LEDs. The light is transmitted to the light guide 400 via a diffuser 700, creating a unique lighting effect.

[0055] In this embodiment, the light guide 400 and the remote control cover 110 are designed around the button and are molded using a two-shot molding process. This enhances structural strength while also providing internal support. This two-shot molding process results in a more aesthetically pleasing appearance and improved light guidance.

[0056] The wire control back cover in this embodiment is mainly used to fix the adapter cable 600 and the wire control box cover to ensure the stability of the overall structure.

[0057] Example 3:
