The flexible circuit board 50 is electrically connected to both the control component 30 and the flexible circuit board 50, which helps to keep the button component 40 away from the control component 30 and place it in a suitable position.

[0037] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some optional embodiments, the brim 11 includes a central support 111, on which a first receiving cavity 1121, a second receiving cavity 1122, and a wiring groove 1123 are formed. The first receiving cavity 1121 communicates with the second receiving cavity 1122 through the wiring groove 1123. The first receiving cavity 1121 has a first opening, and a cover 1124 is detachably provided on the first opening. The bottom of the second receiving cavity 1122 has a second opening. A control component 30 is disposed in the first receiving cavity 1121. At least a portion of the flexible circuit board 50 is disposed in the wiring groove 1123. A button component 40 is disposed in the second receiving cavity 1122 and extends out from the second opening. The first receiving cavity 1121, in conjunction with the cover 1124, can stably house the control component 30, improving the installation stability of the control component 30. The wiring groove 1123 facilitates the stable guidance of the flexible circuit board 50, making the flexible circuit board 50 less prone to bending or shaking during use. The second accommodating cavity 1122 can stably house the button assembly 40, preventing the button assembly 40 from shaking during use.

[0038] The cover 1124 can be detachably connected to the intermediate support 111 by means of a snap-fit ​​structure or a threaded structure, or it can be detachably connected by means of an interference fit with the first opening.

[0039] Please see Figure 4In some optional embodiments, the brim 11 further includes an upper outer layer 112 and a lower outer layer 113. The upper outer layer 112 covers the top of the intermediate support 111, and the lower outer layer 113 covers the bottom of the intermediate support 111, shielding the first accommodating cavity 1121, the cover 1124, and the wiring groove 1123. The lower outer layer 113 is provided with several through holes 1131 communicating with the second accommodating cavity 1122. The button assembly 40 extends from the through holes 1131 to the bottom of the lower outer layer 113, facilitating the extension of the button assembly 40 from the bottom of the brim 11 while minimizing its concealment. The upper outer layer 112 and the lower outer layer 113 can be made of fabric or other suitable materials to improve the aesthetic appearance.

[0040] In some alternative embodiments, the button assembly 40 and / or the flexible circuit board 50 are connected to the intermediate support 111 via an adhesive, a threaded structure, or a snap-fit ​​structure. In this embodiment, the button assembly 40 and the flexible circuit board 50 are adhered to the intermediate support 111 via an adhesive.

[0041] In some optional embodiments, the button assembly 40 includes an elastic buffer layer 41 and a plurality of control buttons 42. The elastic buffer layer 41 and the control buttons 42 are disposed inside the brim 11. The elastic buffer layer 41 is connected to the control buttons 42, and a portion of the elastic buffer layer 41 extends beyond the bottom of the brim 11. The control buttons 42 are electrically connected to the flexible circuit board 50. The elastic buffer layer 41 can provide a certain resistance when the user presses the control buttons 42, thereby improving the tactile feedback, allowing the user to clearly feel the effectiveness of the operation, avoiding misoperation, and improving the user experience. In this embodiment, a portion of the flexible circuit board 50 extends into the second accommodating cavity 1122. The flexible circuit board 50 is adhered to the intermediate support 111 by an adhesive. The control buttons 42 are mounted on the flexible circuit board 50, and the elastic buffer layer 41 is adhered to the intermediate support 111 or the lower outer layer 113 by an adhesive.

[0042] In some alternative embodiments, the button assembly 40 includes a plurality of control buttons 42 arranged sequentially along the extension direction of the edge of the brim 11. Different control buttons 42 correspond to different functions of the headphone assembly 20, such as controlling the volume increase, power switch, track switching, etc. of the headphone assembly 20.

[0043] In some alternative embodiments, a plurality of protruding pressing portions 411 are formed on the elastic buffer layer 41, the pressing portions 411 are arranged corresponding to the control buttons 42, and the pressing portions 411 extend to the bottom of the cap brim 11, thereby facilitating the user to press the control buttons 42, providing better tactile feedback and improving the user experience.

[0044] In some alternative embodiments, the elastic buffer layer 41 is a silicone layer, but of course, the elastic buffer layer 41 can also be made of other materials.

[0045] In some alternative embodiments, the pressing part 411 is provided with a plurality of anti-slip textures 412, which may be raised or recessed, thereby achieving an anti-slip effect and providing better tactile feedback.

[0046] In some alternative embodiments, the portion of the button assembly 40 extending beyond the bottom of the brim 11 is positioned near the edge of the brim 11 away from the cap body 10, thereby positioning the button assembly 40 away from the cap body 10. This makes it easier for the user to visually see the button assembly 40, improves the operability of the button assembly 40, avoids accidental operation, and effectively enhances the user experience.

[0047] The specific structure of the headphone assembly 20 can be selected according to actual needs. For example, the headphone assembly 20 includes two mounting housings and a Bluetooth headset correspondingly disposed in the mounting housings. The Bluetooth headset is connected to the control assembly 30 via a signal. The two mounting housings are disposed on both sides of the cap 10 and protrude from the side of the cap 10.

[0048] The intermediate support 111 bends upward, making the cross-section of the intermediate support 111 arc-shaped, so that a certain space is formed at the bottom of the middle part of the intermediate support 111. The bottom of the brim 11 has a protruding ring, which surrounds to form the first receiving cavity 1121. The space formed by the bending of the intermediate support 111 is used to form the first receiving cavity 1121 with sufficient depth.

[0049] The control component 30 includes a control circuit board. A plurality of positioning posts 1125 are provided in the first accommodating cavity 1121. Positioning holes 31 are provided on the control circuit board. The positioning posts 1125 are positioned and engaged with the positioning holes 31.

[0050] The first accommodating cavity 1121 also houses a battery assembly 60, which is electrically connected to the control assembly 30. The battery assembly 60 supplies power to the control assembly 30 and the headphone assembly 20. Since there is ample space on the brim 11, a relatively large battery assembly 60 can be accommodated, improving the battery life of the headphone assembly 20. After the control circuit board is positioned by the positioning post 1125, the side of the control circuit board can also abut against the battery assembly 60, thereby positioning the battery assembly 60. Furthermore, the battery assembly 60 allows the center of gravity of the brim 11 to be closer to the center. Additionally, the battery assembly 60 can be positioned on the side of the first accommodating cavity 1121 closest to the hat body 10, making the center of gravity of the brim 11 as close to the hat body 10 as possible, thus improving the user's wearing experience.

[0051] In this embodiment, the control component 30 is also electrically connected to the headphone component 20 via the flexible circuit board 50.

[0052] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
