[0041] Embodiment one

[0042] As Figures 1 to 4As shown, the ear clip type earphone provided by the utility model, the sound producing mechanism 10 is only inserted into the concha cavity of the user, and does not penetrate into the ear canal, thereby avoiding the compression feeling on the ear canal and improving the wearing comfort; meanwhile, the double sound producing piece design is adopted, the first sound producing piece and the second sound producing piece respectively transmit sound through the first sound transmission channel and the second sound transmission channel, the full frequency band can be better covered, and the balance and the detail performance of the sound quality are improved. In summary, the ear clip type earphone of the utility model not only improves the wearing comfort and stability, but also significantly improves the sound quality and sound producing effect, thereby providing a brand-new, more comfortable true wireless stereo earphone solution for the user.

[0043] In the embodiment, the wearing part 20 is hollow and is provided with a battery (not shown in the figure) for supplying power to the sound producing mechanism 10, and the clamping part 30 is provided with a wire (not shown in the figure) connecting the battery and the sound producing mechanism 10. Specifically, the clamping part 30 is elastic, and in the wearing state, the clamping part 30 can clamp the front and back sides of the concha cavity of the wearing part 20 and the sound producing mechanism 10, thereby maintaining the stability of wearing. The clamping part 30 is a hollow structure, and the wire is arranged inside the clamping part 30. The outer surfaces of the wearing part 20 and the clamping part 30 are both provided with an anti-skid rubber layer, which can make the earphone wear more stable and not easy to fall off, and on the other hand, the rubber layer is soft, which can improve the wearing comfort of the earphone. The wearing part 20 is provided with a battery charging port 21, and when charging, the connector of the charging line is inserted into the battery charging port 21 to charge the battery of the earphone.

[0044] In the embodiment, the axis of the first sound transmission channel and the axis of the second sound transmission channel are arranged in parallel. The parallel arrangement of the sound transmission channels can better simulate the natural stereo sound effect, on the other hand, can ensure that the pressure distribution of the earphone on the ear is more uniform when worn, reduce the local pressure point, and make the sound generating mechanism 10 better fit the concha cavity, reduce the pressure on the ear canal, improve the comfort of long-time wearing. The parallel arrangement of the sound transmission channels can also reduce the resonance phenomenon caused by the angle difference, improve the clarity and purity of the sound. And help to optimize the frequency response curve of the sound generating mechanism 10, make the balance of low frequency, medium frequency and high frequency better, provide richer sound quality performance. In other embodiments, the included angle between the axis of the first sound transmission channel and the axis of the second sound transmission channel can also be 1°, 2°, 3°, 4°, 5°, 6°, 7°, 8°, 9° or 10°.

[0045] In the embodiment, the first sound generating part includes a first moving coil unit 16, and the second sound generating part includes a second moving coil unit 17. The frequency response range of the first moving coil unit 16 is the same as that of the second moving coil unit 17. The frequency response range of the two moving coil units is the same, which can reduce the phase distortion, improve the clarity and purity of the sound, and help to optimize the frequency response curve of the whole earphone, make the balance of low frequency, medium frequency and high frequency better, provide richer sound quality performance.

[0046] Embodiment two

[0047] As Figures 5 to 8As shown, embodiment two provides an ear clip type earphone, the ear clip type earphone of embodiment two is different from embodiment one in that the shell 11 is provided with a third sound hole 18 between the first sound hole 14 and the second sound hole 15, and the shell 11 is provided with a moving iron auxiliary unit 19 opposite to the third sound hole 18; the frequency response range of the first moving coil unit 16 is different from that of the moving iron auxiliary unit 19. Through the combination of the moving coil unit and the moving iron auxiliary unit 19, the balanced coverage of the full frequency band can be realized, and the sound quality is more rich and natural. By setting the third sound hole 18 on the shell 11 and equipping the moving iron auxiliary unit 19, the propagation path of sound can be better controlled, and the sound leakage phenomenon can be reduced, so that good sound quality effect can be maintained even in noisy environment. The frequency response range of the first moving coil unit 16 and the second moving coil unit 17 is different from that of the moving iron auxiliary unit 19, so that the complementarity of frequency response can be realized, the frequency response curve of the whole earphone is optimized, and the balance of low frequency, medium frequency and high frequency is better. The addition of the moving iron auxiliary unit 19 can reduce the resonance phenomenon caused by the difference of frequency response, and further improve the sound quality. The moving iron auxiliary unit 19 can enhance the pickup ability of environmental sound, improve the call quality and environmental noise suppression effect, so that the user can obtain good use experience in different scenes. In summary, by setting the third sound hole 18 on the shell 11 and equipping the moving iron auxiliary unit 19, and by making the frequency response range of the first moving coil unit 16 and the moving iron auxiliary unit 19 different, this design not only can realize the balanced coverage of the full frequency band, improve the sound quality and resolving power, but also can reduce the sound leakage, optimize the acoustic performance, improve the wearing comfort and environmental adaptability.
