For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0030] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments, provides further details:

[0031] like Figures 1-7 As shown, a foldable headphone hook includes: a base 1; a hook 2, which is rotatably foldable and connected to one end of the base 1, and is used to hang over-ear headphones or neckband headphones; and an unlock button 3, which is pressed and disposed at the other end of the base 1, and is positioned opposite to the hook 2, and is used to lock and unlock the hook 2 in its folded state. The upper surface of the base 1 has a storage groove 11 of a certain depth, and the hook 2 is adapted to the storage groove 11, and is located in the storage groove 11 when the hook 2 is folded.

[0032] In this way, the hook 2 can be rotated and folded to be connected to the fixed base 1. When the user does not need to hang and store the headphones, the hook 2 can be folded and stored to effectively prevent collisions.

[0033] like Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, the fixed base 1 includes a first rotating shaft 12 disposed at the interface with the hook 2 and a first torsion spring 13 sleeved on the first rotating shaft 12. The first rotating shaft 12 passes through the hook 2 and is fixedly connected to the fixed base 1. One end of the first torsion spring 13 abuts against the fixed base 1, and the other end of the first torsion spring 13 abuts against the hook 2, forming a quick reset effect for the hook 2. When the hook 2 is in a folded state, the first torsion spring 13 is in a compressed deformation state. In this embodiment, one end of the fixed base 1 is provided with a clearance hole 16. The first rotating shaft 12 is horizontally fixed in the clearance hole 16. The hook 2 passes through the first rotating shaft 12 and is located in the clearance hole 16. A limiting boss 23 is provided on one end of the hook 2 located in the clearance hole 16. When the hook 2 rotates to the point where the limiting boss 23 contacts the bottom near the clearance hole 16, it is the maximum rotation stroke of the hook 2.

[0034] In this way, by utilizing the first torsion spring 13, when the user presses the unlock button 3, the hook 2 will quickly and automatically open under the restoring force of the first torsion spring 13, which is very convenient and enhances the user experience.

[0035] like Figure 2 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the mounting base 1 includes an adhesive sticker 10 disposed on the back of the mounting base 1. The adhesive sticker 10 is used to stick and fix the mounting base 1 to the wall or flat surface. The adhesive sticker 10 is set as a self-adhesive sticker, foam adhesive sticker or 3M adhesive sticker. When installing the headphone hook, align one side of the adhesive sticker 10 on the mounting base 1 with the wall, side wall of the desk or table leg to quickly complete the overall installation and fixation of the headphone hook.

[0036] like Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, the fixed base 1 also includes a second rotating shaft 14 disposed at the position opposite to the unlock button 3 and a second torsion spring 15 sleeved on the second rotating shaft 14. The second rotating shaft 14 passes through the unlock button 3 and is fixedly connected to the fixed base 1 near the middle. One end of the second torsion spring 15 abuts against the fixed base 1, and the other end of the second torsion spring 15 abuts against the unlock button 3, forming the effect of the unlock button 3 being pressed and reset. The front end of the hook 2 is provided with a protruding locking platform 21 and a limiting platform 22. The limiting platform 22 is disposed on one side of the locking platform 21 and is located on the upper surface of the hook 2. The limiting platform 22 is used to limit the position of the over-ear headphones or neckband headphones suspended on the hook 2. A locking groove 31 is provided on the unlock button 3 at a position corresponding to the locking platform 21. When the locking platform 21 is engaged in the locking groove 31, the hook 2 is locked in a folded state. The hook 2 extends along its length and forms an arc-shaped structure with a front end thickness smaller than the thickness at the connection point with the hook 2. Pressing the unlock button 3 causes the unlock button 3 to rotate upward along the second pivot 14 until the locking platform 21 disengages from the locking groove 31, thus unlocking the hook 2. At this time, the second torsion spring 15 is in a compressed deformation state. Releasing the unlock button 3 causes the unlock button 3 to return to its initial state under the restoring force of the second torsion spring 15. When the user does not need to use the hook 2, they can push the hook 2 upward. When the locking platform 21 contacts the unlock button 3, the locking platform 21 presses the unlock button 3 downward, causing the unlock button 3 to rotate downward. Since one side of the locking platform 21 and the unlock button 3 is arc-shaped, the locking platform 21 can quickly engage with the locking groove 31 on the unlock button 3. Since the torque of the second torsion spring 15 is greater than the torque of the first torsion spring 13, the unlock button 3 can lock the folded state of the hook 2.

[0037] In this way, by setting the unlock button 3, the hook part 2 can be locked and unlocked in the folded state, which is very convenient to use.

[0038] In summary, this utility model features a hook 2 that can be rotated and folded to connect to the fixed base 1. When the user does not need to hang and store the headphones, the hook 2 can be folded for storage, effectively preventing collisions. Utilizing the first torsion spring 13, when the user presses the unlock button 3, the hook 2 quickly and automatically opens under the restoring force of the first torsion spring 13, which is very convenient and enhances the user experience. The unlock button 3 enables locking and unlocking of the hook 2 in its folded state, making it very convenient to use.

[0039] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
