TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of earphones, and particularly relates to a head-arch over-ear earphone. BACKGROUND
[0002] The head-arch over-ear earphone is a type of earphone that combines over-ear design and head-arch design. They provide additional support through the head-arch on the earphone, while the over-ear part further enhances the fixation of the earphone on the ear. This design has unique advantages and appeal in specific use scenarios. However, due to the combination of head-arch and over-ear design, the overall volume of the head-arch over-ear earphone is usually larger, and it is less portable than other types of earphones, especially compared to in-ear or pure over-ear earphones. This causes great inconvenience to users who need to carry earphones frequently. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL
[0003] The purpose of the embodiment of the present application is to provide a head-arch over-ear earphone, which can reduce the occupied space of the earphone by reasonably accommodating the over-ear part structure, so that it is easier to put into a bag or carry on the body, greatly improving its portability.
[0004] To achieve the above purpose, the following technical solutions are adopted in the present application:
[0005] On the one hand, a head-arch over-ear earphone is provided, which comprises a connecting band and two earphone assemblies. The two ends of the connecting band are respectively connected to the earphone assemblies. The earphone assembly comprises an over-ear part and a sound producing part. The over-ear part is provided with a storage position. The sound producing part is movably connected to the over-ear part. The earphone assembly has a use state and a storage state. In the use state, the sound producing part is located outside the storage position. In the storage state, the sound producing part is stored in the storage position.
[0006] Further, the over-ear part is rotatably connected to the connecting band. The two ends of the connecting band can be relatively close to each other to form an accommodation space between the inner sides of the two ends of the connecting band. When the earphone assembly is in the storage state, the over-ear part can rotate relative to the connecting band so that the earphone assembly is stored in the accommodation space.
[0007] Further, the distance between the two ends of the connecting band after being relatively close to each other is greater than or equal to the sum of the thicknesses of the two over-ear parts.
[0008] Further, the over-ear part and the connecting band are connected by a rotating piece. The rotating piece is provided with a damping piece, so that the over-ear part can be locked in the current position by friction damping after rotation.
[0009] Further, the over-ear part can rotate 0-360 degrees relative to the connecting band.
[0010] Further, a rotating shaft is arranged on the side wall surface of the sound generating part, and the rotating shaft is rotatably connected with the hanging ear part.
[0011] Further, the sound generating part can rotate 0-360° relative to the hanging ear part.
[0012] Further, the hanging ear part comprises a memory metal and a protective sleeve wrapped on the outer surface of the memory metal.
[0013] Further, the protective sleeve is made of silica gel material.
[0014] Further, the connecting band is a leather band, a silica gel band or a cloth band.
[0015] The application has the following advantages: in the design of the earphone assembly, the hanging ear part is ingeniously arranged with a storage position, and the sound generating part is connected with the hanging ear part through a movable connection mechanism, so that the earphone can be flexibly switched between a use state and a storage state. In the use state, the sound generating part is located outside the storage position, and the head bow and the hanging ear part provide additional support and fixation for the earphone, ensuring that the user can enjoy stable and high-quality audio experience in various activities. When the earphone needs to be stored, the user only needs to simply store the sound generating part in the storage position of the hanging ear part through the movable connection mechanism, which can significantly reduce the overall volume of the earphone, so that it can be easily put into a bag or carried around, greatly improving the portability of the earphone. This design not only facilitates the user to carry and use the earphone in different occasions, but also protects the sound generating part from external impact or damage to a certain extent.
[0016] In addition, the hanging ear part and the connecting band are rotatably connected, which means that the hanging ear part can rotate at a certain angle relative to the connecting band. At the same time, the two ends of the connecting band are designed to be able to move closer to each other, thereby forming an accommodation space between the two inner side surfaces. This design ingeniously utilizes the deformability of the connecting band to provide further storage conditions for the earphone assembly. When the earphone assembly is in the storage state, the hanging ear part can rotate relative to the connecting band, so that the entire earphone assembly can be compactly stored in the accommodation space formed after the two ends of the connecting band are moved closer to each other. In this process, the sound generating part is first stored in the storage position of the hanging ear part, and then the hanging ear part as a whole is further compressed and stored along with the deformation of the connecting band.
[0017] Through the movable design of the connecting band and the earphone assembly, the overall earphone can form a more compact volume in the storage state, so as to be more convenient for the user to put it into a bag or carry it around. This not only solves the deficiency of the traditional head bow and hanging ear type earphone in portability, but also provides the user with a more flexible and convenient earphone use experience.

[0027] The embodiment provides a head-hanging ear-hanging earphone, which comprises a connecting band 1 and two earphone assemblies 2. Figures 1-4 As shown in the figure, the connecting band 1 is connected with the earphone assemblies 2 at two ends, and the earphone assembly 2 comprises an ear-hanging part 201 and a sound-producing part 202. The ear-hanging part 201 is provided with a storage position 2011, and the sound-producing part 202 is movably connected with the ear-hanging part 201. The earphone assembly 2 has a use state and a storage state. In the use state, the sound-producing part 202 is located outside the storage position 2011. In the storage state, the sound-producing part 202 is stored in the storage position 2011.
[0028] According to the above scheme, the storage position 2011 on the ear-hanging part 201 is designed, and the sound-producing part 202 is movably connected with the ear-hanging part 201, so that the earphone assembly 2 can be flexibly switched between the use state and the storage state. In the storage state, the sound-producing part 202 is ingeniously stored in the storage position 2011 of the ear-hanging part 201, so that the overall volume of the earphone is significantly reduced. This design makes the earphone more convenient to put into a bag or carry on the body, greatly improves the portability, and meets the user's portable demand for the earphone in different occasions. The storage design of the earphone assembly 2 not only improves the portability, but also makes the earphone more tidy and orderly when carrying and storing. At the same time, the movable connection of the ear-hanging part 201 and the sound-producing part 202 also ensures the stability and comfort of the earphone when worn, and provides a better audio experience for the user. In the storage state, the sound-producing part 202 is stored in the storage position 2011 of the ear-hanging part 201, which to some extent plays a role in protecting the sound-producing part 202. Avoiding the sound-producing part 202 from being collided or damaged by the outside during carrying or storing, thereby prolonging the service life of the earphone. In addition, due to the improvement of the portability, the head-hanging ear-hanging earphone of the embodiment can be applied to more application scenarios. Whether it is travel, commuting or sports, users can easily carry and enjoy high-quality audio experience at any time.
[0029] In some embodiments, the ear hook 201 is rotationally connected with the connecting band 1, and the two ends of the connecting band 1 can be relatively close to each other to form an accommodation space 101 between the two inner sides of the connecting band 1. When the earphone assembly 2 is in the storage state, the ear hook 201 can rotate relative to the connecting band 1 so that the earphone assembly 2 is stored in the accommodation space 101. The ear hook 201 is designed to rotate relative to the connecting band 1 by a certain angle. This rotational connection allows the earphone assembly 2 to adapt to the deformation of the connecting band 1 more flexibly when it is stored. At the same time, the two ends of the connecting band 1 are designed to be relatively close to each other, and when the two ends are close to each other, a relatively compact accommodation space 101 is formed between the two inner sides of the connecting band 1. The accommodation space 101 is not designed to be too large to facilitate storage and carrying, and can only store two earphone assemblies 2. When the earphone assembly 2 is in the storage state, the ear hook 201 rotates relative to the connecting band 1, so that the entire earphone assembly 2 can be tightly attached to the connecting band 1 and smoothly stored in the accommodation space 101 formed after the two ends of the connecting band 1 are close to each other. During this process, the sound generating part 202 is first stored in the storage position 2011 of the ear hook 201, and then the ear hook 201 is further compressed and stored as a whole along with the deformation of the connecting band 1, and finally a compact and orderly overall structure is formed. Through the rotational connection of the ear hook 201 and the connecting band 1 and the deformation design of the connecting band 1, the earphone can form a more compact volume in the storage state, thereby making it easier for the user to put it into a bag or carry it with him, whether it is for daily travel or long-distance travel. In the storage process, the sound generating part 202 and the ear hook 201 are effectively protected, avoiding damage caused by collision or extrusion, prolonging the service life of the earphone. Moreover, the overall structure of the stored earphone is compact and orderly, which not only facilitates carrying and storage, but also improves the user's experience
[0030] Specifically, the distance between the two ends of the connecting band 1 after being relatively close to each other is greater than or equal to the sum of the thicknesses of the two ear hooks 201. This design ensures that when the earphone assembly 2 is in the storage state, the two ear hooks 201 can be smoothly and unobstructed attached to the connecting band 1 and tightly stored in the accommodation space 101 formed after the two ends of the connecting band 1 are close to each other. By ensuring the matching of the distance between the two ends of the connecting band 1 after being close to each other and the thickness of the ear hook 201, the earphone can form a more compact volume in the storage state, thereby further improving its portability. When the ear hook 201 is stored on the connecting band 1, the ear hook 201 can be stably supported and fixed due to the appropriate distance between the two ends of the connecting band 1 after being close to each other, avoiding damage caused by shaking or collision during carrying or storage.
[0031] Further, the lug portion 201 is connected with the connecting band 1 through a rotating piece 3, and the rotating piece 3 is provided with a damping piece to allow the lug portion 201 to be locked in the current position through friction damping after rotation. The rotating piece 3 is designed to allow the lug portion 201 to rotate at a certain angle relative to the connecting band 1 to adapt to the switching between the use and storage states of the earphone. More importantly, the rotating piece 3 is further provided with a damping piece inside. The damping piece functions to limit the rotation speed and position of the lug portion 201 through friction resistance, so that the lug portion 201 can be automatically locked in the current position after being rotated to a certain angle, and will not be shaken or changed in position at will due to external force.
[0032] The lug portion 201 can rotate 0-360° relative to the connecting band 1. This design allows the user to adjust the lug portion 201 to any desired angle according to actual needs to adapt to different wearing postures and use scenarios. For example, when the user needs a more snug wearing feeling, the lug portion 201 can be slightly rotated inward, and when the user needs to store the earphone, the lug portion 201 can be rotated outward to fit on the connecting band 1 and be smoothly stored in the accommodating space 101 formed after the two ends of the connecting band 1 are brought together. In general, regardless of the shape and size of the user's head or the change in the posture of wearing the earphone, the 0-360° rotation design can ensure that the lug portion 201 can always be best fitted with the user's ear to provide a stable and comfortable wearing experience. The omnidirectional rotation design allows the user to more freely and flexibly adjust the position of the lug portion 201 when using the earphone, thereby meeting the use needs in different scenarios and improving the overall use experience. Moreover, in the storage state, the lug portion 201 can be flexibly rotated to a position parallel to the connecting band 1, thereby reducing the overall size of the earphone and making it more convenient to carry and store.
[0033] Further, the side wall surface of the sound generating portion 202 is provided with a rotating shaft 203, and the rotating shaft 203 is rotationally connected with the lug portion 201. The rotating shaft 203 serves as the connection point between the sound generating portion 202 and the lug portion 201, allowing the sound generating portion 202 to rotate at a certain angle relative to the lug portion 201, so that the sound generating portion 202 can rotate more flexibly and smoothly relative to the lug portion 201, thereby meeting the diversified needs of the user for the angle of the earphone in different use scenarios. Moreover, the rotational connection between the sound generating portion 202 and the lug portion 201 allows the earphone to better fit the contour of the user's ear, reducing the feeling of oppression and discomfort when wearing and improving the overall wearing comfort.
[0034] Specifically, the sound generating part 202 can rotate 0-360° relative to the hanging ear part 201. The sound generating part 202 can rotate in all directions, meeting the diversified needs of users for the angle of the earphone in different use scenarios. Whether listening to music, answering the phone, or making a video call, users can easily adjust the position of the sound generating part 202 according to actual needs.
[0035] It is worth mentioning that the hanging ear part 201 includes a memory metal and a protective sleeve wrapped around the outer surface of the memory metal. Memory metal is a kind of alloy material with special shape memory function, which can deform after being subjected to external force and restore to the original shape after the external force is removed. The application of such material makes the hanging ear part 201 well adapt to the ear shape and wearing posture of different users, ensuring that the earphone can still maintain comfort and stability during long-term wearing. The protective sleeve wrapped around the outer surface of the memory metal plays a role in further improving the wearing comfort and protecting the memory metal. The protective sleeve is usually made of soft and skin-friendly materials such as silicone and TPU, which can effectively reduce the friction between the memory metal and the user's skin, reduce the sense of oppression and discomfort during wearing. At the same time, the protective sleeve can also prevent the memory metal from being eroded by sweat, dust and other external factors to some extent, prolonging the service life of the earphone.
[0036] In addition, the connecting band 1 is a leather band, a silicone band or a cloth band. The leather band usually has high strength and stability, and can withstand large tension and pressure. At the same time, the leather band also has good texture, which can improve the overall level of the earphone. The silicone band can provide excellent comfort and fit when worn, reducing friction and pressure on the skin. In addition, the silicone band also has good waterproof and sweat-proof performance, suitable for use in various environments. The cloth band is usually made of soft and breathable materials such as cotton and hemp, which can provide a comfortable wearing experience. The cloth band can reduce the irritation of sweat on the skin in summer, keeping it dry. At the same time, the cloth band also has high cost performance and environmental protection. The selection of the connecting band 1 should be determined according to the specific design requirements and use scenarios. The leather band is suitable for users who pursue strength and texture; the silicone band is highly praised for its softness, skin-friendliness and durability; the cloth band is more suitable for users who focus on comfort and cost performance. No matter which material the connecting band 1 is made of, it should ensure good strength and stability to meet the user's needs in different scenarios.
[0037] In summary, the storable head-bow hanging ear earphone of the present scheme exhibits significant beneficial effects in many aspects, not only improving the portability and use experience of users, but also enhancing the protection and durability of the earphone, meeting the diversified needs of modern life, and having environmental protection and economic benefits, as well as strong market competitiveness.
