DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0029] It should be noted that the embodiments and technical features in the present application can be combined with each other without conflict, and the detailed description in the specific embodiments should be understood as the explanation and description of the present application, and should not be regarded as improper limitation of the present application.
[0030] In the description of the present application, the "first direction", "second direction", "third direction", position or location relationship is based on the drawings Figure 1 、 Figure 2 and Figure 9The orientation or positional relationship shown, wherein the "first direction" is the direction indicated by arrow L1 in the drawing, the "second direction" is the direction indicated by arrow L2 in the drawing, and the "third direction" is the direction indicated by arrow L3 in the drawing. It should be understood that these orientation terms are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the devices or elements referred to must have a particular orientation, be constructed and operated in a particular orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the present application. In the description of the present application, the terms "first", "second" and "third" are only used to distinguish the description and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0031] The audio playing device commonly used in the related art mainly transmits sound to the human ear in the form of sound waves. However, there are few types of audio playing devices suitable for people with limited auditory sensory function. On the one hand, the needs of people with hearing impairment are ignored, and on the other hand, the sound produced by air as a medium cannot be combined with the vibration produced by solid conduction to produce complex sound rhythm.
[0032] Therefore, with reference to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The embodiment of the present application expects to provide a wearable sound box 10, which comprises a connecting piece 11, two clamping arms 12, at least two loudspeakers 16 and at least two vibration devices 13; the connecting piece 11 extends in a first direction; the two clamping arms 12 are respectively arranged on the opposite sides of the connecting piece 11 along the first direction and extend in a second direction, and the first direction and the second direction intersect; the at least two loudspeakers 16 are respectively arranged on the two clamping arms 12, and the loudspeaker 16 is used to output sound according to an audio signal; and the at least two vibration devices 13 are respectively arranged on the two clamping arms 12, and the vibration device is used to output a vibration signal according to the audio signal.
[0033] Here, the first direction and the second direction can be perpendicular to each other, or can be at any other suitable angle, which is not limited.
[0034] The connecting piece 11 is mainly used to connect the two clamping arms 12 together, and the specific structure of the connecting piece 11 is not limited. As an example, the connecting piece 11 can be substantially in the form of a rod.
[0035] The extension of the connecting piece 11 in the first direction specifically refers to the extension or expansion of the connecting piece 11 in the first direction, and does not refer to the formation of the connecting piece 11 in the form of a straight line in the first direction. Taking the connecting piece 11 as a rod structure as an example, the connecting piece 11 can be a straight rod structure or an arc-shaped rod structure.
[0036] It can be understood that, due to the intersection of the first direction and the second direction, the two clamping arms 12 and the connecting piece 11 will be connected to form a substantially U-shaped structure, and in actual use, the two clamping arms 12 can be clamped on the body part of the user to realize wearing. As an example, in actual use, the two clamping arms 12 can abut against the two sides of the neck, the two sides of the shoulder, the two sides of the clavicle, and the two sides of the chest of the user, and the connecting piece 11 can abut against the back of the neck of the user, so as to be worn on the neck of the user. As another example, in actual use, the two clamping arms 12 can abut against the two sides of the temporal bone of the user, respectively, and the connecting piece 11 can abut against the parietal bone, the occipital bone and the back of the neck of the user, so as to be worn on the head of the user.
[0037] The specific structure of the clamping arm 12 can be determined by a person skilled in the art according to the actual desired wearing mode, and is not limited.
[0038] The specific structure of the vibration device 13 is not limited, as long as it can vibrate according to the audio signal. The specific number of the vibration device 13 is not limited, and only one vibration device 13 can be arranged on one clamping arm 12, or a plurality of vibration devices 13 can be arranged, and the number of vibration devices 13 on the two clamping arms 12 can be the same or different.
[0039] In the embodiment, the vibration device 13 and the loudspeaker 16 are arranged on the wearable sound box 10 at the same time. It can be understood that bone conduction can transmit sound, and when the vibration device 13 is attached to the body of the user (for example, attached to the temporal bone, clavicle, etc. of the user), the user can hear the sound through bone conduction regardless of the ear function of the user, which is more friendly to people with incomplete ear function.
[0040] In addition, the vibration device 13 can not only conduct sound through bone conduction, but also enable the user to perceive a certain vibration rhythm. Therefore, by simultaneously arranging the loudspeaker 16 and the vibration device 13, the wearable sound box 10 can control the loudspeaker 16 to output sound to the ear on the one hand, and control the amplitude and frequency of the vibration device 13 to contact the human body on the other hand, so that the human body can feel the sound rhythm vibration, thereby forming a composite rhythm with the sound and optimizing the experience.
[0041] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 11 , the wearable sound box 10 includes a signal transmitter 18 electrically connected with the loudspeaker 16 and the vibration device 13, and the signal transmitter 18 is configured to synchronously transmit the audio signal to the loudspeaker 16 and the vibration device 13, so that when the loudspeaker 16 outputs sound according to the audio signal, the vibration device 13 can synchronously output a vibration signal according to the audio signal, thereby enabling the user to simultaneously perceive the sound and the rhythm through multiple sensory pathways and obtain a composite experience of matching the sound and the rhythm.
[0042] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 11 The wearable sound box 10 further comprises a signal receiver 19 electrically connected with the signal transmitter 18, the audio signal receiver 19 is configured to receive an external electrical signal and input the electrical signal to the signal transmitter 18, and the signal transmitter 18 is configured to generate an audio signal according to the electrical signal.
[0043] In this way, the signal receiver 19 establishes a signal transmission channel with the external device of the wearable sound box 10, and the signal transmission channel can be a wired connection, which can reduce the interference that may be generated during transmission.
[0044] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 11 The signal receiver 19 comprises a Bluetooth receiver 191 configured to receive the electrical signal through a Bluetooth protocol.
[0045] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 11 The signal receiver 19 comprises a wireless network receiver 192 configured to receive the electrical signal through a wireless network protocol.
[0046] Specifically, the Bluetooth receiver 191 and / or the wireless network receiver 192 can establish a wireless connection with the external device such as a mobile phone or a computer, so that the wearable sound box 10 can receive the electrical signal even if it is away from the external device by a certain distance.
[0047] In some embodiments, the signal receiver 19 can also receive the electrical signal in a wired connection manner.
[0048] In some embodiments, the signal transmitter 18 can be directly electrically connected with the device for emitting the audio signal.
[0049] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 11 The audio signal comprises a first audio signal for transmission to the loudspeaker 16 and a second audio signal for transmission to the vibration device 13, and the signal transmitter 18 comprises a decoder 181 configured to decode the received electrical signal into the first audio signal and the second audio signal.
[0050] In this embodiment, the first audio signal and the second audio signal decoded by the decoder 181 can be completely identical audio signals, or can be not completely identical audio signals, for example, the low frequency amount of one of the first audio signal and the second audio signal can be significantly higher than that of the other, so as to better exert the respective sound emitting performance of the loudspeaker 16 and the vibration device 13 and improve the user experience.
[0051] In some embodiments, the wearable sound box 10 further comprises an indicator light arranged on the clamping arm 12, and the indicator light is electrically connected with at least one of the vibration device 13, the loudspeaker 16, the signal transmitter 18 and the signal receiver 19.
[0052] Specifically, the application does not limit the form and the position of the indicator light. In one embodiment, the indicator light can be a single-color LED light, which is always on when at least one of the vibration device 13, the speaker 16, the signal transmitter 18 and the signal receiver 19 is working normally, and which is off when at least one of the vibration device 13, the speaker 16, the signal transmitter 18 and the signal receiver 19 is not working normally; in another embodiment, the indicator light can be a liquid crystal display, which can display specific working information of at least one of the vibration device 13, the speaker 16, the signal transmitter 18 and the signal receiver 19.
[0053] In some embodiments, the wearable sound box 10 further comprises a voltage stabilizer, an input end of which is connected with the battery assembly 17, and an output end of which is connected with at least one of the vibration device 13, the speaker 16, the signal receiver 19 and the signal transmitter 18, for adjusting the voltage output by the battery assembly 17 to a rated working voltage suitable for any one of the vibration device 13, the speaker 16, the signal receiver 19 and the signal transmitter 18, so as to realize the working state of the wearable sound box 10.
[0054] In some embodiments, the wearable sound box 10 further comprises a control button, which is connected with the signal receiver 19, for sending a control signal to at least one of the signal transmitter 18, the signal receiver 19, the speaker 16 and the vibration device 13. The specific position and the structural form of the control button are not limited.
[0055] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the vibration device 13 comprises a vibration patch 131, which is exposed to a side surface of the clamping arm 12 along a third direction perpendicular to the first direction and the second direction.
[0056] In actual use, the wearable sound box 10 can be worn on the neck of a user, and the vibration patch 131 is exposed to a side surface of the clamping arm 12 along the third direction, so that the vibration patch 131 can be attached to the skin of the chest or the collarbone of the user.
[0057] The advantage of this structural form is that the wearing mode of the neck-hanging wearable sound box is more comfortable, and the chest or the collarbone skin can bear a relatively large intensity of vibration, and the vibration patch 131 arranged here helps to improve the body feeling effect.
[0058] In some embodiments, as a supplement or an alternative, the vibration patch 131 can also be exposed to a side surface of the clamping arm 12 facing the other clamping arm 12. In this way, in actual use, the wearable sound box 10 is worn on the neck or the head of a user, and the vibration patch 131 can be attached to the skin of the neck or the temporal bone of the user.
[0059] In some embodiments, the clamping arm 12 is movably connected with the connecting piece 11, so that in actual use, the user can adjust the relative position relationship between the clamping arm 12 and the connecting piece 11 to make the part of the vibration device 13 exposed to the outer surface of the clamping arm 12 more closely fit the skin of the user, thereby improving the vibration propagation effect of the vibration device 13.
[0060] In addition, the movably connected clamping arm 12 and the connecting piece 11 also help the clamping arm 12 to better clamp the body part of the user, thereby improving the wearing comfort and stability of the wearable sound box 10.
[0061] The specific way of movably connecting the clamping arm 12 and the connecting piece 11 is not limited, which can be sliding connection, rotary connection, combination of sliding connection and rotary connection, etc. The rotary connection can be one degree of freedom or multiple degrees of freedom, and the same applies to the sliding connection.
[0062] In some embodiments, the vibration patch 131 includes a vibration piece 131a for directly generating vibration and a gasket 131b covering the surface of the vibration piece 131a away from the clamping arm 12 and exposed to the outer surface of the clamping arm 12.
[0063] In this embodiment, the vibration patch 131 is provided in a composite structure composed of the vibration piece 131a and the gasket 131b, instead of an integral structure. The vibration piece 131a is used to generate vibration, and the gasket 131b is used to contact the skin of the user. They can be made of different materials, so that better vibration effect and improved wearing comfort of the user can be obtained.
[0064] For example, the vibration piece 131a can be made of a material with higher hardness and density to reduce the disturbance caused by the slight deformation of the vibration piece 131a itself when vibrating and improve the vibration effect. The gasket 131b can be made of a material more suitable for the skin to improve the comfort of the human body when wearing the wearable sound box 10.
[0065] In some embodiments, specifically, the vibration piece 131a can be a ceramic vibration piece, and the gasket 131b can be a flexible gasket or a metal gasket. The ceramic vibration piece has large amplitude and adjustable range of amplitude, which helps to further improve the vibration performance of the vibration piece 131a. The metal gasket or the flexible gasket has high wearing comfort and good vibration transmission effect.
[0066] For example, the material of the metal gasket can include but is not limited to silver, copper, aluminum, stainless steel, etc., and the material of the flexible gasket can include but is not limited to silicone and rubber.
[0067] In some embodiments, the vibrating sheet 131a is detachably connected with the gasket 131b. In this way, the user can connect the gasket 131b made of different materials to the vibrating sheet 131a according to the actual use requirement (for example, using the gasket made of metal material in hot weather, using the gasket made of flexible material in cold weather, etc.), or detach the gasket 131b so that the vibrating sheet 131a is directly attached to the skin for use.
[0068] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 , the vibrating device 13 further comprises a damping connecting piece 132 connected with the clamping arm 12, and the vibrating sheet 131 is arranged on the side of the damping connecting piece 132 away from the clamping arm 12.
[0069] In the embodiment, the vibrating sheet 131 is not in direct contact with the clamping arm 12, but is connected with the clamping arm 12 through the damping connecting piece 132. The damping connecting piece 132 blocks the transmission of the vibration of the vibrating sheet 131a to the clamping arm 12 to some extent, thereby further improving the wearing comfort of the user.
[0070] The specific structure of the damping connecting piece 132 is not limited.
[0071] In some embodiments, the damping connecting piece 132 is made of flexible material. The flexible material can include, but is not limited to, silica gel, rubber, ABS polymer material, etc. In this way, the damping effect of the damping connecting piece 132 can be improved, and in addition, the flexible damping connecting piece 132 can also provide a certain elastic force in actual use, so that the vibrating sheet 131 can be more closely attached to the human skin, thereby improving the sound transmission effect and the body sensation effect.
[0072] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 6 , a damping cavity 132e is formed in the damping connecting piece 132. In this way, the damping cavity 132e can provide space for the cable layout of the vibrating device 13, and can further increase the vibration absorption capacity of the damping connecting piece 132.
[0073] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the clamping arm 12 forms a mounting cavity 12a, the damping connecting piece 132 comprises a first connecting part 132a and a second connecting part 132b, the first connecting part 132a is arranged in the mounting cavity 12a, and the second connecting part 132b protrudes from one side surface of the clamping arm 12.
[0074] For example, the second connecting part 132b protrudes from the side surface of the clamping arm 12 along the third direction. The mounting cavity 12a is a recess formed on the side surface of the clamping arm 12 along the third direction. It can be understood that the thickness of the clamping arm 12 at the mounting cavity 12a is thinner than the thickness of the clamping arm 12 at other positions.
[0075] In this way, the shock-absorbing connecting part 132 is arranged in the mounting cavity 12a, which provides additional mounting space for the shock-absorbing connecting part 132, reduces the thickness of the wearable sound box 10 at the position of the shock-absorbing connecting part 132, and realizes the lightweight design of the wearable sound box 10.
[0076] In some embodiments, at least one protrusion is formed on the first connecting part 132a, and a clamping groove is formed on the side surface of the clamping arm 12, and the protrusion of the first connecting part 132a can be clamped in the clamping groove. In this way, the installation and connection of the shock-absorbing connecting part 132 on the clamping arm 12 are facilitated.
[0077] In some embodiments, in a projection plane perpendicular to the first connecting part 132a and the second connecting part 132b, the projection of the second connecting part 132b covers and exceeds the projection of the first connecting part 132a.
[0078] For example, the vibration patch 131 is exposed on the side surface of the shell along the third direction, and in a projection plane perpendicular to the third direction, the projection of the second connecting part 132b covers and exceeds the projection of the first connecting part 132a.
[0079] Specifically, the second connecting part 132b is an annular fan extending away from the first connecting part 132a along the side of the first connecting part 132a, so that the shock-absorbing connecting part 132 as a whole forms a horn-shaped structure.
[0080] In this way, the vibration patch 131 with a larger installation area can be mounted on the second connecting part 132b, thereby providing a larger contact surface to achieve better vibration conduction and further improve the wearing comfort.
[0081] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 5 and Figure 6 For example, the vibration patch 131 is exposed on the side surface of the shell along the third direction, and the clamping arm 12 includes a first shell 121 and a second shell 122, the first shell 121 and the second shell 122 are butted along the third direction, and the mounting cavity 12a is formed in the second shell 122.
[0082] Therefore, when assembling the wearable sound box 10, the components arranged inside the clamping arm 12 can be first mounted on the second shell 122, and then the first shell 121 is mounted. At the same time, when the internal components need to be adjusted, the first shell 121 can be first disassembled for adjustment, thereby improving the assembly and maintenance efficiency.
[0083] In some embodiments, the first shell 121 is formed with a first connecting hole 121a, the second shell 122 is formed with a second connecting hole 122a, and the damping connecting piece 132 is formed with a third connecting hole 132c. The first connecting hole 121a, the second connecting hole 122a, and the third connecting hole 132c all extend along the third direction and are in communication with each other. The wearable sound box 10 further comprises a fastener, which is threaded through the first connecting hole 121a, the second connecting hole 122a, and the third connecting hole 132c to fix the damping connecting piece 132, the first shell 121, and the second shell 122.
[0084] Specifically, there can be more than one first connecting hole 121a, and the same applies to the second connecting hole 122a or the third connecting hole 132c. The fastener can be a screw, and the first connecting hole 121a can be formed with a thread to cooperate with the thread on the fastener to achieve fixation. The caliber of the second connecting hole 122a and the third connecting hole 132c is larger than that of the first connecting hole 121a, and matches the size of the nut of the fastener.
[0085] The coaxial design of the first connecting hole 121a, the second connecting hole 122a, and the third connecting hole 132c can use fewer fasteners to complete the fixed connection of the first shell 121, the second shell 122, and the damping connecting piece 132, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost and improving the assembly efficiency.
[0086] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 , the vibration device 13 is arranged on the side of the clamping arm 12 away from the connecting piece 11. On the one hand, by arranging the vibration device 13 at the end of the clamping arm 12, the vibration generated by the vibration device 13 on the whole wearable sound box 10 can be reduced. On the other hand, sufficient space is left for the part of the clamping arm 12 close to the connecting piece 11.
[0087] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the vibration device 13 further comprises a circuit board 133, which can convert the electrical signal containing the sound information into an audio signal and transmit it to the vibration patch 131, so that the vibration patch 131 can output vibration according to the audio signal. The first shell 121 and the second shell 122 form a cavity 12b therebetween, and the circuit board 133 is arranged in the cavity 12b and electrically connected with the vibration patch 131a.
[0088] In this way, the cavity 12b can greatly reduce the weight of the clamping arm 12, realize the lightweight design of the wearable sound box 10, and provide space for the circuit board 133 or cable of the wearable sound box 10. At the same time, the vibration component and the control component of the vibration device 13 are separated, which can effectively reduce the negative effects of vibration on the control component.
[0089] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the vibration device 13 further comprises a cable (not shown in the figure); the damping connector 132 is provided with a wire passing hole 132d; the cable is arranged in the wire passing hole 132d and connected to the circuit board 133 and the vibration piece 131a at both ends. In this way, a channel is provided for signal transmission.
[0090] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the first shell 121 is provided with at least one first fixing column 121b facing the second shell 122, the first connecting hole 121a is formed in the first fixing column 121b, the second shell 122 is provided with at least one second fixing column 122b facing the first shell 121, the second connecting hole 122a is formed in the second fixing column 122b, the first fixing column 121b and the second fixing column 122b are connected one by one, and the circuit board 133 forms at least one fixing hole 133a, and the second fixing column 122b is arranged in the fixing hole 133a.
[0091] Specifically, the inner diameter of the second connecting hole 122a matches the outer diameter of the first fixing column 121b, and the first fixing column 121b can be inserted into the second connecting hole 122a. In another embodiment, the second fixing column 122b can also be inserted into the first connecting hole 121a in a similar manner.
[0092] In this way, on the one hand, the first fixing column 121b and the second fixing column 122b can provide necessary support inside the cavity 12b, reducing the possibility of deformation of the first shell 121 and the second shell 122 affected by external force; on the other hand, the cooperation of the second fixing column 122b and the fixing hole 133a can provide fixation for the circuit board 133.
[0093] It can be understood that, referring to Figure 1 and Figure 7In the cavity 12b, a plurality of first fixing columns 121b and second fixing columns 122b corresponding to each other can be arranged along the extending direction of the clamping arm 12. The first fixing columns 121b and the second fixing columns 122b are divided into two parts. One part is used to fix the vibration device 13 as described above. The other part is used to provide necessary support for the middle section of the clamping arm 12.
[0094] In some embodiments, the wearable sound box 10 further comprises a telescopic part (not shown in the figure) extending in the first direction. The two ends of the telescopic part are connected to one of the clamping arms 12 and the connecting part 11 respectively, so that the distance between the two clamping arms 12 in the first direction can be adjusted according to the user's needs.
[0095] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1 , the vibration device 13 is exposed on one side surface of the clamping arm 12 in the third direction. The clamping arm 12 is rotationally connected to the connecting part 11, and the rotation axis is parallel to the first direction. In this way, the user can rotate the clamping arm 12 to make the vibration device 13 more closely attached to the user's clavicle or chest skin.
[0096] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the wearable sound box 10 comprises two rotation shafts 15, which are rotationally connected to the connecting part 11 respectively. The end of the clamping arm 12 close to the connecting part 11 is bent towards the connecting part 11 to form a transition section 123. The transition section 123 is connected to the corresponding rotation shaft 15 and forms a rotation-stopping fit, so as to realize the rotational connection between the two clamping arms 12 and the connecting part 11.
[0097] Specifically, in order to improve the wearing comfort of the wearable sound box 10, the bending of the clamping arm 12 has a certain curvature, so as to form a U-shaped structure with the connecting part 11, which is convenient to carry. The rotation shaft 15 can be embedded in the inside of the clamping arm 12 and the connecting part 11. The rotation-stopping fit between the rotation shaft 15 and the transition section 123 can be realized by fixing the rotation shaft 15 on the transition section 123. The fixing methods include but are not limited to welding, buckle connection or riveting, etc.
[0098] In this way, the rotation shaft 15 can bear the bending moment and the torsion moment generated by the movement between the clamping arm 12 and the connecting part 11, reducing the stress burden of the clamping arm 12 and the connecting part 11. In turn, lighter materials can be selected to make the clamping arm 12 and the connecting part 11, further improving the comfort of the wearable sound box 10.
[0099] It should be noted that the implementation of the rotational connection between the clamping arm 12 and the connecting part 11 is not limited to this.
[0100] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 8 and Figure 9 , the rotating shaft 15 extends along the first direction, a circumferential surface of the rotating shaft 15 is formed with an annular groove 15a, two ends of the connecting member 11 along the first direction are formed with first connecting cavities 11a, a portion of the rotating shaft 15 is located in the first connecting cavities 11a, and a limiting block 111 is formed inside the first connecting cavities 11a and located in the annular groove 15a and in sliding fit with the annular groove 15a.
[0101] It can be understood that the annular groove 15a can also be formed on the inner surface of the first connecting cavities 11a, and the limiting block 111 is formed on the circumferential surface of the rotating shaft 15.
[0102] In this way, by arranging the limiting block 111 in the annular groove 15a, the rotating shaft 15 can be prevented from being pulled out of the first connecting cavities 11a, thereby reducing the possibility of the rotating shaft 15 and the connecting member 11 being separated from the transition section 123 of the clamping arm 12. The sliding fit of the annular groove 15a and the limiting block 111 also effectively reduces the friction generated when the clamping arm 12 rotates relative to the connecting member 11.
[0103] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 , the rotating shaft 15 is formed with a positioning hole 15b extending along the radial direction of the rotating shaft 15, the transition section 123 is formed with a second connecting cavity 123a at one end connected to the rotating shaft 15, a portion of the rotating shaft 15 is located in the second connecting cavity 123a, and a positioning column 123b is formed inside the second connecting cavity 123a and located in the positioning hole 15b.
[0104] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 8 , Figure 9 and Figure 10 , the second connecting cavity 123a is further formed with a positioning rib 123c between the positioning column 123b and the inner wall surface of the second connecting cavity 123a to strengthen the strength of the positioning column 123b. It can be understood that the rotating shaft 15 is also formed with a positioning groove 15c matching the positioning rib 123c.
[0105] In this way, by designing the positioning column 123b and the positioning rib 123c, the rotating shaft 15 and the transition section 123 are achieved in rotation-stopping fit, and the movement of the rotating shaft 15 and the transition section 123 along the first direction is also prevented, thereby reducing the possibility of the rotating shaft 15 and the connecting member 11 being separated from the transition section 123 of the clamping arm 12.
[0106] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 8 , the rotating shaft 15 has a first wire hole 15d penetrating through the rotating shaft 15 along the first direction.
[0107] Thus, combined Figure 1 The signal line, power line or control line of the wearable speaker 10 can be connected to the cavity 12b inside the connector 11 and the clamp arm 12 through the first wiring hole 15d.
[0108] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The wearable speaker 10 also includes at least two speakers 16, which are respectively disposed on two clamping arms 12, and the speakers 16 are used to emit sound according to the audio signal.
[0109] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 The speaker 16 is positioned on the side of the clamp arm 12 closest to the connector 11. Thus, when the wearable speaker 10 is worn around the user's neck, the side of the clamp arm 12 closest to the connector 11 is closer to the ear, resulting in a better listening experience when the speaker 16 is positioned there.
[0110] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The vibration device 13 is exposed on one side of the clamping arm 12 along a third direction, and the other side of the clamping arm 12 along a third direction forms a sound-emitting hole 12c. The speaker 16 is positioned at the corresponding sound-emitting hole 12c. The sound-emitting hole 12c reduces the obstruction to sound transmission by the speaker 16. At the same time, by reasonably setting the number and direction of the sound-emitting holes 12c, the direction of sound transmission can be made more directional, and the high-frequency cutoff frequency and mid-low frequency sensitivity can be effectively controlled, thereby reducing noise.
[0111] In some embodiments, the vibration device 13 and the sound-emitting hole 12c are offset from each other along a second direction. For example, the vibration device 13 is located at the end of the clamping arm 12 away from the connector 11, and the sound-emitting hole 12c is located at the end of the clamping arm 12 near the connector 11. This helps to bring the sound-emitting hole 12c closer to the human ear and improve the auditory experience.
[0112] In some embodiments, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The wearable speaker 10 also includes a battery assembly 17, which is connected to the connector 11 and located between the two clamping arms 12. The battery assembly 17 is used to power the wearable speaker.
[0113] In some embodiments, the battery assembly 17 includes a battery case 171 and a battery 172, the battery 172 being disposed within the battery case 171 and capable of powering the speaker 16 and the vibration device 13.
[0114] In some embodiments, the wearable sound box 10 further comprises an adapter 14 connecting the battery box 171 and the connecting member 11. The battery 172 can be electrically connected with the speaker 16, the vibration device 13 and the like via the adapter 14. Specifically, referring to Figure 9 and Figure 10 , the two first connecting cavities 11a are mutually through, and the second wire hole 14a extending along the third direction is formed in the interior of the adapter 14, the second wire hole 14a is also mutually through with the two first connecting cavities 11a, so that the power line (not shown in the figure) of the battery 172 can be first divided into two paths through the second wire hole 14a to enter the two second connecting cavities 123a respectively, and then enter the cavity 12b through the first wire hole 15d to be connected with the speaker 16 and the vibration device 13 respectively.
[0115] In some embodiments, the battery 172 is detachably arranged in the battery box 171, and the detachable battery 172 makes the power supply mode of the wearable sound box 10 more flexible. It can be understood that the detachable arrangement of the battery 172 in the battery box 171 does not mean that the battery 172 can only be charged after being detached, and the battery 172 can also be charged when it is installed in the battery box 171. Furthermore, the weight of the battery assembly 17 can balance the weight of the clamping arm 12 and the vibration device 13, reducing the possibility of imbalance of the wearable sound box 10 when it is tilted forward.
[0116] It should be noted that the arrangement of the battery assembly 17 is not limited to this, for example, the battery assembly 17 can also be arranged in the interior of the clamping arm 12 or the connecting member 11.
[0117] In some embodiments, the battery box 171 is rotationally connected with the connecting member 11, and the rotation axis is parallel to the first direction. In this way, during actual wearing, the user can adjust the battery box 171 to a comfortable angle. As mentioned above, the battery box 171 is connected with the connecting member 11 through the adapter 14, in this embodiment, the battery box 171 can be rotationally connected with the adapter 14, or the adapter 14 can be rotationally connected with the connecting member 11.
[0118] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 , the battery assembly 17 comprises a cover plate 173, and the side of the battery box 171 away from the clamping arm 12 forms an opening, and the cover plate 173 is detachably connected with the battery box 171 to cover the opening. In this way, the user only needs to open the cover plate 173 to detach the battery 172, which is convenient to use. The cover plate 173 can also play a role in protecting the internal components of the battery box 171.
[0119] In some embodiments, the battery assembly 17 comprises a magnetic attraction element connecting the cover plate 173 and the battery box 171. In this way, the magnetic attraction element can generate an attraction force to fix the connection between the cover plate 173 and the battery box 171, and can also release the fixation when the user needs to open the battery box 171.
[0120] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 2 , the wearable sound box 10 comprises a support pad 174 arranged on a side surface of the battery box 171 facing the clamping arm 12. When wearing the wearable sound box 10, the support pad 174 can provide support to the human body, increasing the comfort of wearing.
[0121] It should be noted that in some other embodiments, the support pad 174 can also be arranged directly on the connecting element 11.
