Transcutaneous vagus nerve stimulation (VAS) is a non-pharmacological intervention that has shown efficacy in treating conditions such as depression, epilepsy, and migraines. In recent years, it has also gained attention for its application in treating insomnia. VAS can not only effectively improve sleep quality in insomnia patients but also alleviate accompanying symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and daytime sleepiness.

[0003] Currently, existing electrical stimulation devices are limited in function, only providing electrical stimulation and failing to offer other benefits for disease rehabilitation. Furthermore, the structure of these devices does not adapt well to the human ear, resulting in poor wearing comfort and incomplete contact between the ear and the device, leading to reduced stimulation efficiency. Therefore, improvements and development are needed to address these issues. Utility Model Content

[0034] Example 1, combined with Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment provides an electrically stimulated headset with acoustic vibration function, including an elastic headband 1 and a headset structure 2 disposed on the elastic headband 1. The headset structure 2 includes electrode plates 9, conductive airbags 6 in contact with the electrode plates 9, and an inflation component. The conductive airbag 6 is shaped to match the position of the human ear. The inflation component is connected to the conductive airbag 6. A power module is electrically connected to the electrode plates 9 and includes a battery disposed on the headset structure 2 to provide power to the device. A vibration module is electrically connected to the power module and is used to generate vibration and work in conjunction with the conductive airbag 6. A control module 8 is electrically connected to the power module. A fitting groove 221 is provided on the headset structure 2, and the electrode plates 9 are installed in the fitting groove 221. Power cords are laid inside the elastic headband 1 and the earphone structure 2. The power cords are electrically connected to the vibration module and the electrode plate 9 respectively. When the control module 8 works, the electrode plate 9 transmits electrical signals to the conductive airbag 6. The current on the conductive airbag 6 can electrically stimulate the user's ears, thereby achieving health care functions such as unblocking meridians, promoting blood circulation, eliminating fatigue, and improving the user's sleep quality.

[0035] For example, the control module 8 includes a mounting housing, a control panel disposed therein, and a display screen and keypad (not shown in the figure) embedded in the mounting housing. The control panel is electrically connected to the power module and has a memory card disposed thereon.

[0036] Specifically, the inflatable component includes an inflatable bladder 3 with an air cavity, and the air outlet of the inflatable bladder 3 is connected to each conductive air bladder 6 through an inflation tube 4. By inflating each conductive air bladder 6 with the inflatable bladder 3, the expansion and deformation of the conductive air bladder 6 can be adjusted, increasing the adjustment range of the conductive air bladder 6 to adapt to the ear shape of different users, thereby ensuring the contact fit between the conductive air bladder 6 and the ear and improving the stimulation effect.

[0037] Specifically, the conductive gas bag 6 is equipped with an electrode head 7, which is electrically connected to the power module. The electrode head 7 is designed to be spherical and directly contacts the human skin, applying a therapeutic electric shock signal to stimulate acupoints on the ear, thereby alleviating the user's symptoms.

[0038] Targeting acupoints on the user's ear, including acupoints distributed in and around the ear (i.e., periauricular acupoints), the conductive airbag 6 is positioned on the earphone structure 2 corresponding to these periauricular acupoints. Preferably, multiple electrode heads 7 are provided, each corresponding to an acupoint on the human ear. The electrode head 7 protrudes from the surface of the conductive airbag 6 and corresponds to each acupoint on the periauricular acupoint. The electrode head 7 applies a therapeutic electric shock signal to stimulate the acupoints on the human ear, thereby alleviating the user's symptoms.

[0039] For example, the earphone structure 2 is also provided with an airbag 5, which corresponds to the ear and is arranged around the outer edge of the earphone structure 2. The airbag 5 is connected to the inflatable component. Both the elastic headband 1 and the earphone structure 2 are provided with inflatable tubes 4, which are connected to each airbag 5. By inflating the airbags 5 with the inflatable bladder 3, the range of adjustment of the deformation of the airbags 5 can be improved, thereby better fitting the ears of different users and avoiding discomfort when the user wears the elastic headband 1.

[0040] Specifically, the vibration module is disposed on the headphone structure 2. The vibration module includes a voice coil 28, a diaphragm 27 for sound generation, a vibrating spring 23 for bass vibration, and a magnet 25 that electromagnetically engages with the voice coil 28 to generate vibration. The diaphragm 27 is connected to the headphone structure 2 through the vibrating spring 23, and the vibrating spring 23 is movably connected to the headphone structure 2.

[0041] For example, the headphone structure 2 includes a housing 22 and a headphone sleeve 21 that are connected to each other. The housing 22 has a mounting cavity, in which a vibration module is disposed. A lead wire extends outward from the voice coil 28 and is electrically connected to the power module. The electrical signal is conducted to the voice coil 28 through the lead wire, causing the voice coil 28 to generate an alternating magnetic field. Due to the electromagnetic interaction between the magnet 25 and the voice coil 28, the alternating magnetic field and the fixed magnetic field of the magnet 25 attract or repel each other, thus causing the magnet 25 to reciprocate under the action of the alternating magnetic field. The reciprocating motion of the magnet 25 constitutes the driving source for the vibration of the diaphragm 27 and the vibrating spring 23. The reciprocating motion of the magnet 25 drives the diaphragm 27 to vibrate, and the sound emitted by the vibration of the diaphragm 27 is the sound played normally by the device. The transmission process from the voice coil 28, the magnet 25 to the diaphragm 27 realizes the energy conversion from electrical signal to sound signal.

[0042] Specifically, the earphone structure 2 includes a base 29 that vibrates synchronously with the diaphragm 27. A magnet 25 is disposed within the base 29, and the magnet 25 and the base 29 are located on the same axis. The magnet 25 is positioned between the vibrating spring 23 and the diaphragm 27. The reciprocating motion of the magnet 25 drives the vibrating spring 23 to produce elastic vibration. The vibration of the vibrating spring 23 resonates with the base 29 and the outer shell 22, allowing the user to clearly feel the vibration effect. This vibration can massage the ear, improving wearing comfort. When used in conjunction with the conductive airbag 6 and the electrode head 7, it can stimulate acupoints in the ear, unblock meridians, promote blood circulation, and relieve fatigue, among other health benefits.

[0043] For example, a first damping element 24 is provided between the magnet 25 and the vibrating spring 23, and a second damping element 26 is provided between the magnet 25 and the diaphragm 27. The second damping element 26 can buffer the vibration transmitted from the magnet 25 to the diaphragm 27 to counteract the distortion caused by the overshoot of the magnet 25. The first damping element 24 can buffer the vibration transmitted from the magnet 25 to the vibrating spring 23 to ensure that the vibration is powerful but not overshoot, thus avoiding noise caused by overshoot vibration. Optionally, the first damping element 24 is an iron component. The first damping element 24 achieves its damping effect by increasing its own weight. Thus, when the electrical signal transmitted to the voice coil 28 is strong and causes the magnet 25 to vibrate with a large amplitude, the iron component also strengthens the vibration. The iron component makes the vibration felt by the user more powerful.

[0044] For example, the inner wall of the earphone structure 2 is provided with a guide groove 222, and the vibrating spring 23 is slidably disposed in the guide groove 222. A bent portion 231 is formed at the edge of the vibrating spring 23, and the bent portion 231 is slidably disposed in the guide groove 222. The bent portion 231 can ensure the strength of the vibrating spring 23 and also facilitate its installation.

[0045] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: In actual use, the user wears the elastic headband 1, so that the earphone structure 2 is located on the user's ear. The airbag 3 inflates the conductive airbag 6 and the airbag 3 to adjust the expansion and deformation of the conductive airbag 6 and the airbag 3, thereby increasing the adjustment range of the conductive airbag 6 and the airbag 3 to fit the shape of the user's ear. The user starts the power module and control module 8 through the button panel. The earphone structure 2 emits music and vibrates. The electrode plate 9 transmits electrical signals to the conductive airbag 6. The current on the conductive airbag 6 can provide electrical stimulation to the user's ear. At the same time, the electrode head 7 directly acts on the acupoints on the ear, thereby playing a role in unblocking the meridians, promoting blood circulation, eliminating fatigue and other health care functions, so as to significantly improve the therapeutic effect.

[0046] Many other changes and modifications can be made without departing from the concept and scope of this utility model. It should be understood that this utility model is not limited to the specific embodiments, and the scope of this utility model is defined by the appended claims.
