The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are exemplary only, only for explaining the present application, and cannot be understood as a limitation of the present application.

[0042] In the description of the present application, it is understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "transverse", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", "axial", "radial", "circumferential" and the like indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the indicated device or element must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation of the present application.

[0043] There are many types of earphones, such as OWS earphones. The OWS earphone, namely Open Wearable Stereo, has many advantages, such as: not in-ear, higher wearing comfort; open design, after wearing, it will not isolate the external environment sound, can realize real-time sensing of external environment sound, will not affect communication and improve safety

[0044] Taking the OWS earphone as an example, the shell part of the existing OWS earphone is supported by hard plastic, and the surface is very smooth. When wearing, the earphone needs to be closely attached to the skin surface of the ear to fix the position. However, due to the hard material of the earphone shell, it will cause a certain sense of oppression to the ear, and the user will feel obvious discomfort after long-term wearing.

[0045] The skin surface will secrete sweat, and the part of the earphone in contact with the skin will slip due to sweat, resulting in displacement of the earphone, thereby affecting the wearing and use of the user. In addition, the sweat adheres to the surface of the earphone, and since the material used for the shell is not breathable, the sweat cannot be volatilized, thereby causing certain irritation and discomfort to the skin. To solve the above problems, an earphone is proposed in the embodiment.

[0046] Referring to Figures 1-3 , an earphone is proposed in the embodiment, which comprises a first component 100, a connecting piece 200 and a second component 300 connected in sequence, wherein the two ends of the connecting piece 200 are connected with the first component 100 and the second component 300 respectively. The inside of the first component 100 is provided with a sound generating device 511, wherein the sound generating device 511 comprises a loudspeaker.

[0047] The first component 100 comprises a first contact part 110, and the second component 300 comprises a second contact part 310, both the first contact part 110 and the second contact part 310 are used to contact the skin. Wherein, the first contact part 110 and the second contact part 310 both have elasticity and porous structure.

[0048] Specifically, the first contact part 110 and the second contact part 310 comprise a silica gel piece or a latex piece.

[0049] When wearing, the first component 100 contacts the skin through the first contact part 110, and the second component 300 contacts the skin through the second contact part 310. Since the materials of the first contact part 110 and the second contact part 310 both have elasticity and porous structure, the first contact part 110 and the second contact part 310 both have good skin affinity and air permeability, thereby effectively improving the comfort and stability of the earphone wearing, avoiding the feeling of damp and oppression caused by long-term wearing.

[0050] Referring toFigure 2 A ventilated structure 400 is provided on the first contact portion 110 and / or the second contact portion 310 at the position for contacting the user. The ventilated structure 400 facilitates air circulation, improves the breathability and heat dissipation of the part of the earphone in contact with the ear, facilitates the evaporation and expulsion of sweat and moisture, reduces the irritation to the ear caused by heat and moisture, and further improves the comfort of wearing the earphone.

[0051] A breathable structure 400 may be provided on the first contact portion 110 or the second contact portion 310 as needed, or a breathable structure 400 may be provided on both the first contact portion 110 and the second contact portion 310.

[0052] The breathable structure 400 includes the following forms: 1. The breathable structure 400 includes a groove 410; 2. The breathable structure 400 includes a recess 420.

[0053] Taking the breathable structure 400, including the groove 410, as an example:

[0054] The shape of the groove 410 can be set as needed, such as an arc or a straight line; the number of grooves 410 can also be set as needed, such as one or more. When there are multiple grooves 410, any two grooves 410 are spaced apart, or at least some grooves 410 are intersected. Spaced apart means that all grooves 410 do not intersect.

[0055] In addition, the length, depth, and cross-sectional shape of the groove 410 can be set as needed.

[0056] like Figure 2 As shown, in this embodiment, the groove 410 is arc-shaped, and there are two grooves 410. The two grooves 410 in the figure are spaced apart. Specifically, the groove 410 is C-shaped, so that the grooves 410 can be evenly distributed along the part of the earphone that contacts the skin, so as to better guide the airflow and allow the heat and sweat of the part of the skin that contacts the earphone to be discharged more smoothly.

[0057] like Figure 4 As shown, in another embodiment, the grooves 410 are straight, and some of the grooves 410 are intersecting each other, thereby forming a mesh-like breathable structure 400. This type of breathable structure 400 can provide a wider breathable area while ensuring structural strength.

[0058] Taking the breathable structure 400 including the recessed portion 420 as an example:

[0059] Reference Figure 5The air-permeable structure 400 comprises a plurality of recesses 420 arranged in an array. The recesses 420 can have any shape, such as a semispherical shape or a cuboid shape.

[0060] As shown in Figure 2 , the first component 100 is detachably provided with a sound-transmitting mesh 120. The sound-transmitting mesh 120 is connected to the first component 100 by clamping. The sound-transmitting mesh 120 is provided with a through hole, thereby facilitating the transmission of sound waves.

Specifically, the sound-producing part of the sound-producing device 511 and the diaphragm of the microphone 512 are both directed towards the sound-transmitting mesh 120. After the earphone is worn, the sound-transmitting mesh 120 is directed towards the ear canal.

[0062] In this embodiment, the second component 300 is internally provided with a power supply 521, a circuit board module 522 and a magnetic piece 523. The power supply 521, the sound-producing device 511 and the microphone 512 are all electrically connected to the circuit board module 522. The circuit board module 522 is provided with an antenna unit 524. After the earphone is worn on the head of a user, the position of the sound-producing device 511 corresponds to the ear canal.
