Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of audio device structure, and particularly relates to a headset. BACKGROUND

[0002] The existing headset comprises a support and earphones arranged at two ends of the support. In order to provide a better touch experience for consumers, a sheath is usually coated outside the support. The sheath is usually made of skin-friendly materials such as silica gel, cotton and leather, so that the user can use it more comfortably.

[0003] However, due to frequent use of the headset, the sheath is in contact with the scalp or hair for a long time. After long-term or frequent use, oil stains, dirt and the like are generated on the sheath. When not stored in a sealed manner, more dust is also deposited on the sheath, resulting in a large number of bacteria or color changes in the sheath. Since the sheath is directly coated outside the support or even integrally formed with the support, the cleaning work of the sheath can only be superficially cleaned with a cloth. If the material is silica gel, the cleaning difficulty is increased. After the stains are soaked inside, the sheath cannot be cleaned, resulting in an odor or bacteria, which is unacceptable in appearance and affects the user experience. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a headset with a detachable sheath.

[0005] The present application provides a headset, which comprises:

[0035] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 This application provides a headset 100 for wearing on a user's head to provide audio.

[0036] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 4The over-ear headphones 100 include a connecting component 10, earphone components 20, a protective cover 30, and a connecting structure 40. The connecting component 10 includes a support member 11. There are two earphone components 20, each located at one end of the support member 11, for audio output. The protective cover 30 includes a main body 31, a first end 32, and a second end 33 connected to the main body 31, located at opposite ends of the main body 31. The main body 31 is fitted onto the support member 11. The connecting structure 40 is located on the protective cover 30, and the first end 32 and the second end 33, or the main body 31, are detachably connected via the connecting structure 40. Specifically, the support member 11 has a certain degree of elasticity, allowing the user to easily wear the over-ear headphones 100 on their head.

[0037] Compared to existing technologies, the headset 100 provided in this application embodiment has a connecting structure 40 on the protective cover 30, which makes the protective cover 30 detachable from the support member 11. This allows the protective cover 30 to be removed from the support member 11 for cleaning when dust, dirt, or stains are found on it. The protective cover 30 can be cleaned both inside and out, and can be reattached to the support member 11 after cleaning. This ensures the cleanliness and aesthetics of the protective cover 30 and improves the user experience.

[0038] Specifically, the connection structure 40 includes a first connector 41 and a second connector 42. The first connector 41 is located at the first end 32, and the second connector 42 is located at the second end 33 or the main body 31. The first connector 41 and the second connector 42 are detachably connected. The arrangement of the first connector 41 and the second connector 42 allows the first end 32 to be detachably connected to the second end 33 or the main body 31, thereby facilitating the detachable installation and removal of the sheath 30 from the support member 11, and making it convenient for users to disassemble and clean.

[0039] In this embodiment, the first connector 41 is located at the first end 32, and the second connector 42 is located at the second end 33. When the first connector 41 and the second connector 42 are detachably connected together, the first end 32 covers the second end 33. It can be understood that the sheath 30 is fitted onto the support member 11, and the main body 31 is partially arranged around the support member 11, with the first end 32 and the second end 33 overlapping. When the sheath 30 needs to be removed for cleaning, it can be achieved simply by removing the first end 32 from the second end 33. The overall shape of the sheath 30 is approximately square or rectangular, with the first end 32 and the second end 33 being the opposite ends of the main body 31. When the sheath 30 is fitted onto the support member 11, the first end 32 and the second end 33 are connected, and the sheath 30 is in a rolled-up shape.

[0040] In other embodiments, the second connector 42 is disposed on the main body 31. When the first connector 41 is connected to the second connector 42, a portion of the first end 32 covers a portion of the main body 31. At this time, the second end 33 contacts the support member 11 and is located in the innermost layer of the sheath 30, while the first end 32 is located in the outermost layer, thus forming a roll shape.

[0041] To achieve the above structure, the sheath 30 is made of a flexible or elastic material. Specifically, the sheath 30 can be made of cotton, linen, or leather, or other flexible materials. Alternatively, the sheath 30 can be made of silicone, as long as it can be wound around the support member 11. This design allows the sheath 30 to be wound in multiple layers around the support member 11, enabling the thickness of the sheath 30 after it is fitted onto the support member 11 to be designed as needed, facilitating adjustment and improving the user experience.

[0042] In this embodiment, the headset 100 further includes a telescopic component 50 for extending or shortening. One end of the telescopic component 50 is connected to the support member 11, and the other end is connected to the headphone assembly 20. Specifically, the telescopic component 50 includes a telescopic member 51 and a connecting shell 52 connected to the telescopic member 51. The connecting shell 52 is connected to the support member 11, and a hollow cavity is provided at the end of the connecting shell 52 and the support member 11 that are close to each other to accommodate the telescopic member 51, thereby allowing the telescopic member 51 to extend or shorten within it to adjust its length. The telescopic component 50 can adjust the length of the support member 11 or the distance between the two headphone assemblies 20, and can accommodate different head sizes.

[0043] The headset 100 also includes a rotating component 60. One end of the rotating component 60 is connected to the connecting shell 52, and the other end is connected to the headphone assembly 20. The two ends of the rotating component 60 are rotatably connected to the connecting shell 52 and the headphone assembly 20 respectively via pivots, allowing the headphone assembly 20 to be adjusted within a certain range to fit different head sizes, and to be folded and stored when not in use. The rotating component 60 allows the headphone assembly 20 to be folded and rotated for easy storage.

[0044] Please see Figure 5This diagram illustrates the sheath 30 and connecting structure 40 described in Embodiment 1 of this application. One of the first connecting member 41 and the second connecting member 42 is a snap fastener, and the other is a slot. In this embodiment, the first connecting member 41 is a snap fastener, and the second connecting member 42 is a slot. Specifically, the first connecting member 41 and the second connecting member 42 are two parts of a button, which can be fastened together. The snap fastener and slot structure is simple, practical, and low-cost. In other embodiments, the second connecting member 42 can also be an opening at the second end 33, with the first connecting member 41 being a snap fastener that is detachably connected to the opening.

[0045] In this embodiment, the number of the first connector 41 and the second connector 42 is at least two, and they are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence. Specifically, the number of the first connector 41 and the second connector 42 is four, and they are symmetrically arranged with respect to the sheath 30 along the circumferential direction of the support member 11. The use of multiple first connectors 41 and second connectors 42 allows for better detachable connection of the sheath 30 to the support member 11.

[0046] Please see Figure 6 and Figure 7 This application embodiment also provides a schematic diagram of another connection structure 40. Both the first connector 41 and the second connector 42 are Velcro. There can be multiple Velcro fasteners, or they can be a single strip arranged along the first end 32 or the second end 33. Using Velcro enables detachability, facilitates production, and reduces costs. In this embodiment, the Velcro fasteners are interlocked to achieve a detachable connection. When the sheath 30 is made of a flexible material, it can be well-fitted and connected to the Velcro, facilitating manufacturing.

[0047] Please see Figure 8 One of the first connector 41 and the second connector 42 is a magnetic component, and the other is a magnetic component or a metal component. To ensure the durability and firmness of the magnetic connection, both the first connector 41 and the second connector 42 are magnetic components. The magnetic component can be located inside the sheath 30 or outside the sheath 30, as long as it allows for mutual magnetic attraction and detachment. The magnetic component allows for quick assembly and disassembly of the first connector 41 and the second connector 42, facilitating user operation.

[0048] Please see Figure 9 The connecting structure 40 is a zipper. Using a zipper as the connecting structure 40 is low-cost and easy to combine with the flexible material sheath 30, which facilitates manufacturing.

[0049] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined arbitrarily. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as the combination of these technical features does not contradict each other, it should be considered within the scope of this specification. The above embodiments only illustrate several implementation methods of this application, and their descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of this patent application. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the protection scope of this application. Therefore, the protection scope of this patent application should be determined by the appended claims.
