Detailed Implementation

[0026] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The preferred embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] This utility model embodiment provides an earphone module, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the device includes a clamping member 10, a rear shell 30, and a front shell 20. The clamping member 10 includes a first connecting portion 110, a U-shaped bending portion 120, and a second connecting portion 130 connected in sequence. The length of the first connecting portion 110 is greater than the length of the second connecting portion 130. The rear shell 30 is connected to the second connecting portion 130. The front shell 20 is connected to the first connecting portion 110. A sound outlet 201 is formed on the side of the front shell 20 near the rear shell 30.

[0028] In this embodiment, the earphone module has a clamping member 10 designed to fit the ear and be worn on the user's ear. After wearing, the back shell 30 is located behind the ear, and the front shell 20 is located inside the ear. Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the length of the first connecting part 110 is greater than the length of the second connecting part 130, so that when the user wears the earphone module, the front shell 20 can extend to the ear canal 601 and cover the ear canal 601. A sound outlet 201 is formed on the side of the front shell 20 near the rear shell 30. The sound outlet 201 fits into the ear canal 601, and the sound is directly transmitted into the ear canal 601 through the sound outlet 201. The sound transmission path is short, the energy loss is small, the sound reproduction is higher, and there is no sound leakage in the earphone. It also ensures the privacy of the user's calls and improves the user experience.

[0029] For details, please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 6 (a) is a side view of the headphone module in this embodiment. Figure 6 (b) is a side view of a prior art headphone module. A comparison of the two figures shows that, because the length of the first connecting portion 110 in this embodiment is greater than the length of the second connecting portion 130, the vertical height h1 of the headphone module is greater than the vertical height h2 of the prior art. This causes the bottom of the front shell 20 to protrude beyond the rear shell 30 in the height direction. Therefore, after wearing the headphone module, the front shell 20 of this embodiment can extend to and cover the ear canal 601. Figure 7 (a) The earphone module of this embodiment is worn on the ear model 60, the ear canal 601 is covered by the front shell 20, and the sound outlet 201 is directly connected to the ear canal 601; at the same time, please refer to 7(b), which is a structural schematic diagram of the earphone module of the prior art worn on the ear model 60. It can be clearly seen in the figure that there is a certain distance between the front shell 20 and the ear canal 601, and there is a certain gap between the corresponding sound outlet 201 and the ear canal 601. When in use, the sound energy loss is large, and the sound leakage phenomenon occurs, resulting in poor privacy of the user's calls.

[0030] At the same time, refer to Figure 8 When the earphone module of this embodiment is worn on the ear model 60, the front shell 20 can fit the ear canal better, resulting in better wearing comfort. At the same time, the fixing points 21 on both sides of the front shell 20 in the width direction can cooperate with the ear canal to play a better role in fixing it, preventing the earphone module from slipping off the ear, further improving the stability of wearing, and thus improving the user's experience.

[0031] When the clamping member 10 engages with the ear to perform a clamping function, the clamping member 10 can be made of an elastic material. During wear, the user separates the back shell 30 and the front shell 20, causing the clamping member 10 to elastically deform and place the earphone module on the ear. The force applied to the back shell 30 and the front shell 20 is then released, and the clamping member 10 remains clamped on the ear under the action of elastic contraction. This embodiment does not specifically limit the wearing and fixing method of the earphone module.

[0032] In this embodiment, a speaker (not shown in the figure) is provided inside the front shell 20 as a sound-generating unit, and a battery and circuit board (not shown in the figure) are provided inside the rear shell 30. The speaker is connected to the battery and circuit board by a wire (not shown in the figure), and the wire is located inside the clamping member 10.

[0033] As a preferred embodiment, refer to Figure 4 The sound outlet 201 has a strip-shaped structure, and there are multiple sound outlets 201, which are arranged on the front shell 20 along the circumference of the front shell 20.

[0034] The strip-shaped sound outlet 201 improves the balance of sound output and enhances the clarity of sound quality. The arrangement of multiple sound outlets 201 reduces resonance and enhances the sound effect. (See attached image) Figure 4 The example given is that the sound outlet 201 has two settings.

[0035] As a preferred embodiment, refer to Figure 2 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 The front shell 20 is provided with a cover 40, which is used to cover the sound outlet 201, and a number of evenly distributed air holes 401 are formed on the cover 40.

[0036] The cover 40 generally has a dustproof function. While the sound is output through the vent 401, the cover 40 prevents dust, fine particles and other impurities from entering the front shell 20, reducing the risk of internal components being contaminated or damaged, extending the service life of the headphones and improving the user experience.

[0037] As a preferred embodiment, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 A mounting groove 203 is formed on the front shell 20, the sound outlet 201 is located in the mounting groove 203, the cover 40 is embedded in the mounting groove 203, and the cover 40 is flush with the surface of the front shell 20.

[0038] The mounting slot 203 provides a stable installation environment for the cover 40 on the front shell 20. Embedding the cover 40 into the mounting slot 203 ensures a secure connection between the cover 40 and the front shell 20, preventing the cover 40 from falling off. At the same time, the surfaces of the cover 40 and the front shell 20 are flush, ensuring a good fit between the front shell 20 and the ear when the user wears the headphone module, thus ensuring wearing comfort and further enhancing the user experience.
