In one example, they can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can be a mechanical connection, an electrical connection, or a connection that allows communication between them; they can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction between two elements.

[0029] In related technologies, headphones struggle to connect reliably to various external devices to enable interaction (such as charging or data transfer), resulting in poor versatility and inconvenience for users. To address these issues, please refer to [link to relevant documentation / reference]. Figure 1 This application provides a transmission device 100 and a headphone system 1000 for headphones.

[0030] Please see Figure 1 The headphone system 1000 provided in this application includes a headphone 300 and a transmission device 100, wherein the headphone 300 is detachably disposed on the transmission device 100.

[0031] It is understood that headphones 300 may include air conduction headphones and bone conduction headphones. Air conduction headphones are headphones 300 that transmit sound through air vibrations. Bone conduction headphones are headphones 300 that convert sound into different mechanical vibrations and transmit sound waves through the skull, bony labyrinth, inner ear fluid, cochlea, and auditory center. It is understood that headphones 300 can be worn on the user's ears and can be used with devices such as mobile phones, computers, smart wearable devices (such as smartwatches, smart bracelets, smart glasses, smart helmets, etc.), head-mounted displays, and virtual reality devices.

[0032] It should be noted that the user's ear includes the external auditory canal, concha, cymba conchae, triangular fossa, helix, and antitragus. Among these, the concha, cymba conchae, and triangular fossa have a certain depth and volume in three-dimensional space. The external auditory canal is a curved tube extending medially from the external auditory meatus deep within the concha to the tympanic membrane.

[0033] Furthermore, please combine Figure 2 In some embodiments, the earphone 300 includes a transducer assembly (including a first transducer assembly and a second transducer assembly), which is a structure in the earphone 300 used to enable the user to hear sound. In one example, when the earphone 300 is a bone conduction earphone, the transducer assembly is configured to be located in front of the ear when the earphone 300 is worn, in which case the transducer assembly does not block the external auditory canal. In another example, when the earphone 300 is an air conduction earphone, the transducer assembly is configured to at least partially extend into at least one part of the concha, cymba conchae, and triangular fossa when the earphone 300 is worn. It should be noted that the embodiments described below only use a bone conduction earphone 300 as an example.

[0034] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the earphone 300 includes a battery compartment 330, a control compartment, a first ear hook assembly, a second ear hook assembly, and a back hook assembly disposed between the first ear hook assembly and the second ear hook assembly. The first ear hook assembly and the second ear hook assembly are respectively attached to the left and right ears. The battery compartment 330 may be disposed between the first ear hook assembly and the back hook assembly, and the control compartment may be disposed between the second ear hook assembly and the back hook assembly. Both the first and second transducer assemblies are used to convert electrical signals into mechanical vibrations so that the user can hear sound.

[0035] Since the headphone system 1000 in this embodiment includes a transmission device 100, it is understood that the headphone system 1000 has at least the same beneficial effects as the transmission device 100. Therefore, for the beneficial effects of the headphone system 1000, please refer to the beneficial effects of the transmission device 100 described below.

[0036] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4The headphone transmission device 100 provided in this application includes a loading member 10 and a clamping member 30. The clamping member 30 is rotatably connected to the loading member 10. The loading member 10 and / or the clamping member 30 are provided with a contoured groove 101, which matches the outer contour of the headphone 300. The loading member 10 and / or the clamping member 30 are provided with a transmission interface 40, and the transmission device 100 is connected to an external device through the transmission interface 40. The clamping member 30 includes a first end 301 and a second end 303. When the first end 301 is subjected to force, the clamping member 30 rotates in a first direction, so that the first end 301 moves closer to the loading member 10 and the second end 303 moves away from the loading member 10, and the contoured groove 101 is in an open state. Figure 3 (As shown); when the first end 301 is not under force, the clamping member 30 rotates in the second direction so that the first end 301 moves away from the loading member 10, the second end 303 abuts against the loading member 10, and the contour groove 101 is in a closed state. Figure 4 As shown in the diagram, the first direction and the second direction are opposite. It should be noted that in some embodiments, the external device includes, but is not limited to, a power supply unit, a mobile phone, a computer, a tablet, etc.

[0037] It is understood that the materials of the loading component 10 and the clamping component 30 may include, but are not limited to, plastic, aluminum alloy, copper, iron, steel, and carbon fiber composite materials. For example, both the loading component 10 and the clamping component 30 are made of plastic, which makes the transmission device 100 lighter and easier for users to carry. The materials of the loading component 10 and the clamping component 30 may be the same or different; this application does not impose any restrictions.

[0038] Specifically, the clamping member 30 can rotate relative to the loading member 10, allowing the contouring groove 101 to switch between an open state and a closed state. The open state can be the limit position to which the clamping member 30 can rotate relative to the loading member 10 in a first direction; the closed state can be the limit position to which the clamping member 30 can rotate relative to the loading member 10 in a second direction. It is understood that, under normal conditions, the contouring groove 101 of the transmission device 100 can be in a closed state, thus reducing the space occupied by the transmission device 100 and making it easier for the user to carry.

[0039] The contoured groove 101 is a recess or cavity manufactured according to a specific shape (such as the outer contour of the earphone 300). In some embodiments of this application, the contoured groove 101 matches the outer contour of the earphone 300; that is, the shape, size, and contour of the contoured groove 101 are exactly the same or almost exactly the same as the shape, size, and contour of the earphone 300. The contoured groove 101 facilitates the installation and positioning of the earphone 300 on the transmission device 100 and limits the installation of the earphone 300 on the transmission device 100, thereby improving the stability of the earphone 300 stored in the transmission device 100.

[0040] In some embodiments of this application, when the first end 301 is not under force, the contouring groove 101 is in a closed state. In this case, the contouring groove 101 can limit and fix the earphone 300, preventing the earphone 300 from moving or shaking in the transmission device 100, and improving the stability of the earphone 300 stored in the transmission device 100. When the first end 301 is under force, the contouring groove 101 is in an open state. In this case, the earphone 300 can be placed into the contouring groove 101; or, the earphone 300 can be taken out from the contouring groove 101.

[0041] In some embodiments, the earphone 300 includes a battery compartment 330, and a contoured groove 101 is used to limit the battery compartment 330 and matches the outer contour of the battery compartment 330. That is, the shape, size and contour of the contoured groove 101 are exactly the same or almost exactly the same as the shape, size and contour of the battery compartment 330, which can improve the stability of the connection between the battery compartment 330 and the transmission device 100.

[0042] In some embodiments, the loading member 10 is provided with a contouring groove 101. In other embodiments, the clamping member 30 is provided with a contouring groove 101. In still other embodiments, both the loading member 10 and the clamping member 30 are provided with contouring grooves 101. The contouring grooves 101 on both the loading member 10 and the clamping member 30 match the outer contour of the earphone 300. It is understood that the orthographic projection of the contouring groove 101 on the clamping member 30 onto the loading member 10 at least partially overlaps with the contouring groove 101 on the loading member 10. The shape, size, and contour of the contouring groove 101 on the loading member 10 and the contouring groove 101 on the clamping member 30 may be the same or different.

[0043] In some embodiments, when the earphone 300 is housed in the contoured slot 101 and the transmission device 100 is connected to an external device via the transmission interface 40, signals from the external device can be transmitted to the transmission device 100 via the transmission interface 40, and then transmitted to the earphone 300 via the transmission device 100 to charge the earphone 300 or transmit data. In this case, the transmission device 100 can be used as an adapter. For example, if the external device is a power supply unit, the electrical signals from the power supply unit can be transmitted to the earphone 300 via the transmission device 100 to charge the earphone 300.

[0044] In other embodiments, the transmission device 100 includes a rechargeable battery disposed in the loading member 10 or the clamping member 30. Where the earphone 300 is housed in the contoured groove 101, the electrical signal from the rechargeable battery can be transmitted to the earphone 300 to charge it; in this case, the transmission device 100 can be used as a transmission device. Thus, when the transmission device 100 includes a rechargeable battery, it can be used as both an adapter and a transmission device.

[0045] In the transmission device 100 and earphone system 1000 of this application embodiment, the transmission device 100 is connected to an external device through the transmission interface 40. When the earphone 300 is disposed in the contour slot 101, the transmission device 100 can limit and fix the earphone 300, and can charge or transmit data to the earphone 300. In this way, the earphone 300 can be adapted to connect with different external devices through the transmission device 100 and realize working interaction, which has better versatility and is more convenient for users.

[0046] Please see Figure 3 In some embodiments, the transmission interface 40 is at least one of a Type-C interface, a Micro USB interface, or a Lightning interface. It is understood that in other embodiments, the transmission interface 40 may also include a Type-B interface, etc., and this is not a limitation herein.

[0047] For example, when the transmission interface 40 includes a Type-C interface, the transmission device 100 can be connected to an external device via a Type-C data cable, so that the signal from the external device can be transmitted to the earphone 300 through the transmission device 100 to charge the earphone 300 or transmit data. Compared with the related technology in which the earphone needs to be charged or transmit data via a dedicated data cable, on the one hand, users do not need to carry multiple data cables when they go out, and can share data cables with devices such as mobile phones, which is convenient and meets the user's needs; on the other hand, the earphone 300 does not need to be equipped with a transmission interface 40, which is conducive to the miniaturization of the earphone 300.

[0048] Please see Figure 3 In some embodiments, the loading member 10 and the clamping member 30 together form the headphone compartment 103, which includes a contoured groove 101.

[0049] Specifically, please combine Figure 4In some embodiments, when the clamping member 30 rotates relative to the loading member 10 in a first direction, such that the first end 301 is close to the loading member 10 and the second end 303 is away from the loading member 10, the size of the earphone compartment 103 increases, and the contoured groove 101 can switch from a closed state to an open state. In this case, the earphone 300 can be placed into the earphone compartment 103; or, the earphone 300 can be removed from the earphone compartment 103. When the clamping member 30 rotates relative to the loading member 10 in a second direction, such that the first end 301 is away from the loading member 10 and the second end 303 is close to the loading member 10, the size of the earphone compartment 103 decreases, and the contoured groove 101 can switch from an open state to a closed state. In this case, the transmission device 100 can clamp and fix the earphone 300, and the transmission device 100 can charge the earphone 300 or transmit data.

[0050] In some embodiments, the earphone compartment 103 includes a first side 1031, a second side 1033, a third side 1035, and a fourth side 1037 connected sequentially. When the clamping member 30 rotates in a first direction, the third side 1035 of the earphone compartment 103 opens to allow the earphone 300 to be inserted into the earphone compartment 103; when the clamping member 30 rotates in a second direction, the third side 1035 of the earphone compartment 103 closes. It should be noted that in some embodiments of this application, regardless of whether the contoured groove 101 is in an open or closed state, the second side 1033 and the fourth side 1037 of the earphone compartment 103 are both in an open state, thereby ensuring that the transmission device 100 can adapt to the bone conduction headphones.

[0051] Please see Figure 3 In some embodiments, the clamping member 30 includes a pressing part 31 and a clamping part 33 connected to each other, and the loading member 10 includes a mating part 11 and a loading part 13 connected to each other. The clamping part 33 and the loading part 13 together form the earphone compartment 103. The pressing part 31 is used for the user to press so that the clamping member 30 rotates in a first direction.

[0052] Specifically, in some embodiments, when the user presses the pressing part 31, the pressing part 31 can rotate relative to the loading member 10 in a first direction, so that the pressing part 31 moves closer to the mating part 11, the clamping part 33 moves away from the loading part 13, the size of the earphone compartment 103 increases, and the contoured groove 101 can switch from a closed state to an open state; when the pressing part 31 is not pressed, the pressing part 31 can rotate relative to the loading member 10 in a second direction, so that the pressing part 31 moves away from the mating part 11, the clamping part 33 moves closer to the loading part 13, the size of the earphone compartment 103 decreases, and the contoured groove 101 can switch from an open state to a closed state.

[0053] Please combine Figure 1In some embodiments, the contouring groove 101 is provided on the clamping portion 33 and / or the loading portion 13. Specifically, in some embodiments, the loading portion 13 is provided with the contouring groove 101. In other embodiments, the clamping portion 33 is provided with the contouring groove 101. In still other embodiments, both the loading portion 13 and the clamping portion 33 are provided with the contouring groove 101. The contouring groove 101 on the loading portion 13 and the contouring groove 101 on the clamping portion 33 both match the outer contour of the battery compartment 330. It is understood that the orthographic projection of the contouring groove 101 on the clamping portion 33 onto the loading portion 13 at least partially overlaps with the contouring groove 101 on the loading portion 13. The shape, size, and contour of the contouring groove 101 on the loading portion 13 and the contouring groove 101 on the clamping portion 33 may be the same or different.

[0054] In some embodiments, the pressing part 31 and the clamping part 33 are an integral structure. That is, the pressing part 31 and the clamping part 33 can be integrally molded to form a whole, which can improve the stability of the connection between the pressing part 31 and the clamping part 33, prevent the pressing part 31 and the clamping part 33 from breaking when the user presses the pressing part 31, and ensure the normal operation of the transmission device 100. In other embodiments, the pressing part 31 and the clamping part 33 can be a separate structure, that is, the pressing part 31 and the clamping part 33 are two different structures. The pressing part 31 and the clamping part 33 can be combined by a detachable connection method or a non-detachable connection method. The detachable connection method includes, but is not limited to, snap-fit ​​connection or bolt connection; the non-detachable connection method includes, but is not limited to, bonding or welding.

[0055] Similarly, in some embodiments, the mating part 11 and the loading part 13 are an integral structure. That is, the mating part 11 and the loading part 13 can be integrally molded to form a whole, which can improve the stability of the connection between the mating part 11 and the loading part 13. In other embodiments, the mating part 11 and the loading part 13 can be separate structures, that is, the mating part 11 and the loading part 13 are two different structures. The mating part 11 and the loading part 13 can be connected together by a detachable connection method or a non-detachable connection method. The detachable connection method includes, but is not limited to, snap-fit ​​connection or bolt connection; the non-detachable connection method includes, but is not limited to, bonding or welding.

[0056] In some embodiments, the transmission device further includes an elastic element 50 disposed between the loading member 10 and the clamping member 30. When the clamping member 30 rotates in a first direction, the elastic element 50 generates an elastic force, which is used to rotate the clamping member 30 in a second direction. It should be noted that in some embodiments, the elastic element 50 may be a torsion spring or the like.

[0057] Specifically, in some embodiments, the loading member 10 and the clamping member 30 are rotatably connected via a pivot 90, and the elastic member 50 is arranged around the pivot 90 and cooperates with the loading member 10 and the clamping member 30. When the pressing part 31 is pressed, the clamping member 30 rotates relative to the loading member 10 in a first direction, and the elastic member 50 is compressed, generating an elastic force. When the pressing part 31 is not pressed, the clamping member 30 can rotate relative to the loading member 10 in a second direction under the action of the elastic force, thereby switching the contoured groove 101 between an open state and a closed state. Furthermore, the elastic member 50 can also keep the contoured groove 101 in a closed state, thereby improving the stability of the earphone 300 stored in the transmission device 100.

[0058] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the clamping member 30 further includes a first protrusion 35, which extends protruding from the clamping portion 33 toward the loading member 10 and participates in forming the earphone compartment 103. When the earphone 300 is housed in the earphone compartment 103, the first protrusion 35 can limit at least one side of the earphone 300, thereby reducing the possibility of the earphone 300 detaching from the transmission device 100 and ensuring the stability of the transmission device 100 in charging and housing the earphone 300. It should be noted that in some embodiments, when the clamping member 30 includes the first protrusion 35, the first protrusion 35 is disposed on the side of the clamping portion 33 away from the pressing portion 31, that is, the first protrusion 35 is disposed on the side edge of the clamping portion 33.

[0059] In some embodiments, the loading member 10 further includes a second protrusion 15, which extends protruding from the loading portion 13 toward the clamping member 30 and participates in forming the earphone compartment 103. When the earphone 300 is housed in the earphone compartment 103, the second protrusion 15 can limit at least one side of the earphone 300, thereby reducing the possibility of the earphone 300 detaching from the transmission device 100 and ensuring the stability of the transmission device 100 in charging and housing the earphone 300. It should be noted that in some embodiments, when the loading member 10 includes the second protrusion 15, the second protrusion 15 is disposed on the side of the loading portion 13 away from the mating portion 11, that is, the second protrusion 15 is disposed on the side edge of the loading portion 13.

[0060] In some embodiments, the clamping part 33 is provided with a first buffer on the side facing the loading member 10, and when the earphone 300 is housed in the earphone compartment 103, the first buffer is located between the earphone 300 and the clamping part 33.

[0061] The first buffer prevents damage caused by rigid collision between the clamping part 33 and the earphone 300 when the earphone 300 is housed in the earphone compartment 103, thereby extending the service life of the earphone 300 and the transmission device 100 and ensuring their normal operation. It should be noted that in some embodiments, the material of the first buffer includes, but is not limited to, silicone, rubber, and resin.

[0062] In some embodiments, the shape, size, and contour of the first buffer member match the shape, size, and contour of the earphone 300. In other embodiments, when the earphone 300 is housed in the earphone compartment 103, the first buffer member is capable of elastic deformation, and the shape, size, and contour of the deformed first buffer member match the shape, size, and contour of the earphone 300.

[0063] In some embodiments, the loading section 13 is provided with a second buffer on the side facing the clamping member 30, and when the earphone 300 is housed in the earphone compartment 103, the second buffer is located between the earphone 300 and the loading section 13.

[0064] The second buffer prevents damage caused by rigid collision between the loading part 13 and the earphone 300 when the earphone 300 is placed in the earphone compartment 103, thereby extending the service life of the earphone 300 and the transmission device 100 and ensuring their normal operation. It should be noted that in some embodiments, the material of the second buffer includes, but is not limited to, silicone, rubber, and resin.

[0065] In some embodiments, the shape, size, and contour of the second buffer member match the shape, size, and contour of the earphone 300. In other embodiments, when the earphone 300 is housed in the earphone compartment 103, the second buffer member is capable of elastic deformation, and the shape, size, and contour of the deformed second buffer member match the shape, size, and contour of the earphone 300.

[0066] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments, the loading member 10 or the clamping member 30 is provided with a first electrical connector 70, the first electrical connector 70 partially extending into the contour groove 101, and the earphone 300 is provided with a second electrical connector 310. When the earphone 300 is accommodated in the contour groove 101, the first electrical connector 70 and the second electrical connector 310 are electrically connected.

[0067] Specifically, in some embodiments, when the first electrical connector 70 and the second electrical connector 310 are electrically connected, the transmission device 100 and the earphone 300 can perform functions such as power transmission and data transmission. For example, when the first electrical connector 70 and the second electrical connector 310 are electrically connected, the transmission device 100 can transmit electrical energy (electrical energy from an external device or electrical energy from its own rechargeable battery) to the earphone 300 through the first electrical connector 70 and the second electrical connector 310 to charge the earphone 300.

[0068] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the first electrical connector 70 includes a plurality of first electrical connectors 70 and the second electrical connector 310 includes a plurality of second electrical connectors 310. When the earphone 300 is accommodated in the contoured groove 101, the plurality of first electrical connectors 70 and the plurality of second electrical connectors 310 are electrically connected in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0069] Specifically, in some embodiments, a portion of the plurality of first electrical connectors 70 is used for power transmission, and another portion is used for data transmission; correspondingly, a portion of the plurality of second electrical connectors 310 is used for power transmission, and another portion is used for data transmission. The plurality of first electrical connectors 70 are arranged side-by-side on the loading member 10 or the clamping member 30. This arrangement, compared to a non-side-by-side arrangement of the plurality of first electrical connectors 70 on the loading member 10 or the clamping member 30, reduces the space occupied by the first electrical connectors 70, making the structure more compact and facilitating the miniaturization of the transmission device 100; furthermore, it facilitates the alignment of the first electrical connectors 70 and the second electrical connectors 310, improving the convenience of electrical connection.

[0070] For ease of understanding, the following embodiments will be described using the example of the first electrical connector 70 being disposed on the loading member 10.

[0071] In some embodiments, the transmission device 100 further includes a circuit board and a first seal. The circuit board is disposed in the loading member 10 and electrically connected to the first electrical connector 70. The first seal is fitted onto the transmission interface 40. The loading member 10 has a first through hole through which the transmission interface 40 is exposed to the outside. The first seal is used to seal the gap between the outer sidewall of the transmission interface 40 and the inner sidewall of the first through hole.

[0072] Specifically, the shape and size of the cross-section of the transmission interface 40 are approximately the same as the shape and size of the cross-section of the first through hole. This reduces the gap between the transmission interface 40 and the inner wall of the first through hole, thereby reducing or even preventing external water or dust from entering the loading component 10 through the gap between the transmission interface 40 and the first through hole, thus ensuring the normal operation of the structure (such as the circuit board) inside the loading component 10.

[0073] The first sealing element is fitted onto the transmission interface 40 and located between the outer wall of the transmission interface 40 and the inner wall of the first through hole, sealing the gap between them. Thus, the first sealing element prevents external fluid from entering the loading component 10 through the first through hole, avoiding damage to the circuit board and other structures, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the transmission device 100.

[0074] The first sealing element can be made of a material with a certain degree of elasticity, such as rubber. Rubber materials include, but are not limited to, natural rubber, nitrile rubber, fluororubber, polyurethane rubber, EPDM rubber, or silicone rubber. The elastic first sealing element not only provides waterproofing but also absorbs vibration and impact for the transmission interface 40, preventing deformation of the transmission interface 40 under external forces. In other embodiments, the first sealing element can also be a sealant, etc.

[0075] In some embodiments, the loading member 10 is provided with a second through hole, and the transmission device 100 further includes a second seal. The first electrical connector 70 passes through the second through hole, and the second seal is disposed between the outer side wall of the first electrical connector 70 and the inner side wall of the second through hole. The second seal is used to prevent fluid from entering the loading member 10 through the gap between the outer side wall of the first electrical connector 70 and the inner side wall of the second through hole. It should be noted that the second through hole and the first electrical connector 70 correspond one-to-one, that is, one second through hole corresponds to one first electrical connector 70.

[0076] In some embodiments, the second seal is a sealing ring. Specifically, the sealing ring is fitted onto the outer wall of the first electrical connector 70 to seal the gap between the inner wall of the second through hole and the outer wall of the first electrical connector 70. The sealing ring is easy to replace and has low cost. The material of the sealing ring can be a material with a certain degree of elasticity, such as rubber. Rubber materials include, but are not limited to, natural rubber, nitrile rubber, fluororubber, polyurethane rubber, EPDM rubber, or silicone rubber. The elastic sealing ring not only provides waterproofing but also absorbs vibration and impact for the first electrical connector 70, preventing deformation of the first electrical connector 70 under external forces. In other embodiments, the second seal can also be a sealant, etc.

[0077] In some embodiments, the second seal and the first electrical connector 70 are an integral structure. Specifically, the second seal and the first electrical connector 70 are an integral structure, which improves the bonding strength between the second seal and the first electrical connector 70, prevents separation of the second seal and the first electrical connector 70 during the operation of the transmission device 100, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the transmission device 100 and further improving the sealing and waterproofing effect. It should be noted that in this embodiment, the material of the second seal can be metal.
