[0023] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, this utility model provides a microphone structure for the front cavity of an earphone, including a protective shell 1. One end of the protective shell 1 is fixedly connected to a universal sleeve 2. The inner surface of the universal sleeve 2 is provided with a transmission line, and one end of the universal sleeve 2 is connected to the front cavity of the earphone. The inner surface of the protective shell 1 is provided with a microphone body 20, which is connected to the transmission line. One end of the microphone body 20 is provided with a fixing ring 11. The end of the fixing ring 11 that contacts the microphone body 20 is provided with an anti-slip soft pad. The end of the microphone body 20 away from the fixing ring 11 is provided with a circular plate 15. One end of the circular plate 15 is rotatably connected to an inner rod 192, and the outer surface of the inner rod 192 slides. An outer rod 19 is connected to an inner rod 192, one end of which is fixedly connected to a spring 194. One end of the spring 194 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of one side of the outer rod 19. One end of the outer rod 19 is fixedly connected to a connecting plate 16. The outer surface of the connecting plate 16 is slidably connected to the inner surface of the protective shell 1. One end of the connecting plate 16 is fixedly connected to an adjusting block 18. The inner wall of the protective shell 1 is provided with a slide structure for quick disassembly and assembly. The structure composed of the spring 194, the inner rod 192, and the outer rod 19 can continuously provide elastic force after the slider 17 enters the internal slide groove 172, further stabilizing the microphone body 20 and preventing it from shifting due to external force.

[0025] Specifically, the slide structure includes two sliders 17, which are fixedly connected to the connecting plate 16. The inner wall of the protective shell 1 is provided with a slide groove 172 that works in conjunction with the two sliders 17. The inner surface of the protective shell 1 has an annular groove 171, and four slide grooves 172 are connected to the annular groove 171. The corresponding two slide grooves 172 are the same size and are mirror images of each other. The cooperation between the sliders 17 and the slide grooves 172 and the annular groove 171 provides a clear movement path for the installation and removal of the microphone body 20, making the operation more precise and smooth.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, two slides 172 extend outside the protective housing 1, and the other two slides 172 are located inside the protective housing 1. The slides 172 extending outside the protective housing 1 facilitate direct operation of the slider 17, enabling tool-free quick disassembly and installation; the slides 172 located inside, combined with the elastic force of the spring 194, can firmly fix the microphone body 20.

[0027] Furthermore, two guide blocks 191 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the inner rod 192, and a guide groove 193 is provided on the inner surface of the outer rod 19 to cooperate with the two guide blocks 191, so that the elastic force of the spring 194 can act stably and accurately on the connecting plate 16 and the slider 17, thereby improving the reliability of the microphone body 20.

[0028] like Figures 1 to 4As shown, one end of the adjustment block 18 is engraved with anti-slip texture. The anti-slip texture on the adjustment block 18 increases the friction between the human hand and the adjustment block 18, making it easier and more reliable for the operator to control the movement of the slider 17 by operating the adjustment block 18, thus improving the operating experience.

[0029] It is worth noting that the fixing ring 11 is fixedly connected to the protective shell 1. One end of the fixing ring 11 is provided with an installation groove 14. The inner surface of the installation groove 14 is provided with a waterproof and breathable mesh 12. The side of the waterproof and breathable mesh 12 that is in contact with the installation groove 14 is made of iron. The end of the installation groove 14 that is in contact with the waterproof and breathable mesh 12 is coated with magnetic coating 13. By utilizing the adsorption force between the magnetic coating 13 and the iron surface of the waterproof and breathable mesh 12, the waterproof and breathable mesh 12 can be quickly installed and removed, making it convenient to clean and replace. At the same time, the waterproof and breathable mesh 12 can effectively block water vapor and dust from entering, protecting the microphone body 20.

[0030] Working principle and process: When installing the microphone body 20, the operator pushes the adjusting block 18, and the slider 17 slides in a straight line inward along the groove 172 outside the protective shell 1. At the same time, the inner rod 192 slides in the outer rod 19 and compresses the spring 194. When the slider 17 enters the annular groove 171, the adjusting block 18 is rotated, and the slider 17 rotates in the annular groove 171, so that the slider 17 is aligned with the groove 172 inside the protective shell 1. Then the adjusting block 18 is released, and the spring 194 restores its deformation and generates elastic force, pushing the slider 17 to slide in along the inner groove 172. The inner groove 172 guides precisely, so that the slider 17 reaches the designated position. The spring 194 continues to apply force to firmly press the connecting plate 16 against the inner wall of the protective shell 1. With the help of the anti-slip pad on the fixing ring 11, the microphone body 20 is double-fixed.

[0031] During disassembly, the operator presses the adjusting block 18, and the slider 17 overcomes the elastic force of the spring 194 and retracts from the inner slide groove 172 back to the annular groove 171. The inner slide groove 172 ensures that the slider 17 moves smoothly in the opposite direction. Then, the adjusting block 18 is rotated, and the slider 17 rotates in the annular groove 171 and aligns with the slide groove 172 extending to the outside. Then, under the elastic force of the spring 194, the adjusting block 18 is pushed, so that the slider 17 slides out along the outer slide groove 172. After that, the microphone body 20 can be removed to complete the disassembly of the microphone body 20.

[0032] During the use of the headphones, the waterproof and breathable mesh 12 is adsorbed into the mounting groove 14 by the magnetic coating 13. Under the action of the magnetic coating 13, the waterproof and breathable mesh 12 is easy to disassemble when it needs to be cleaned, and continues to perform the functions of waterproof, dustproof and breathable, ensuring the stable operation of the microphone body 20.

[0033] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.

[0034] 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.
