Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of electronic devices, and in particular to a temple and smart glasses. Background Technology
[0002] As a type of wearable device with intelligent interaction, smart glasses are finding increasingly diverse applications. Among these, the speaker, a crucial component of smart glasses, plays a key role in providing audio output, and its performance directly impacts the user experience. In smart glasses, the speaker module not only needs to achieve high-quality audio reproduction within extremely limited structural space, but also must simultaneously meet stringent requirements across multiple dimensions, including privacy protection, sound leakage suppression, and wearing comfort.
[0003] Currently, smart glasses typically integrate the speaker module into the temple body (which can be understood as the temple shell). On one hand, because high-quality speaker modules are relatively large, this results in a thicker temple body (meaning a larger cross-section, for example, increased width and / or thickness), increasing the overall weight and directly impacting wearing comfort and aesthetics, thus hindering the user experience. On the other hand, reducing the stacked size of the speaker module to fit a slimmer temple body inevitably leads to a significant degradation in audio performance (sound quality), severely impacting the immersive experience for users in audio playback applications such as music playback and movie watching.
[0004] In summary, existing technologies struggle to balance the sound quality of speaker modules with the lightweight design of smart glasses. Utility Model Content
[0005] The temples and smart glasses provided in this application embodiment solve the problem in the prior art of balancing the sound quality of the speaker module and the lightweight design of smart glasses.
[0006] A first aspect of this application provides a temple for eyeglasses, including a temple body and a speaker module. A first mounting cavity is formed inside the temple body. The speaker module is disposed within the first mounting cavity and is detachably fixedly connected to the cavity wall. Furthermore, an opening is provided in one wall of the temple body at the location of the first mounting cavity. The first mounting cavity communicates with the external space of the temple body through the opening, allowing the speaker module to pass through and be inserted into or removed from the first mounting cavity in a first direction.
[0007] The temple provided in this application embodiment has a speaker module disposed within a first mounting cavity of the temple body (which can be understood as the temple shell), and is detachably fixedly connected to the cavity wall. An opening on the temple body wall allows the speaker module to pass through and be inserted into or removed from the first mounting cavity, enabling convenient insertion and removal of the speaker module while ensuring reliable fixation of the speaker module within the temple body. Simultaneously, the speaker module fixed inside the temple body can extend to the outside of the temple body through the opening, thus decoupling the temple body size from the speaker module size. This allows for a larger speaker module with better sound quality while making the temple body thinner (meaning a smaller cross-section, for example, a smaller width and / or thickness), effectively avoiding the adverse effects of a similarly large temple body. This reduces the weight of the temple, ensuring user comfort and a more compact and aesthetically pleasing appearance. Therefore, it is possible to ensure the comfort and aesthetics of smart glasses while also taking into account the sound quality of the speakers.
[0008] Furthermore, when the user needs it, the speaker module is fixedly connected to the first mounting cavity of the temple body to realize the audio function of the speaker. When the user does not need to use the speaker module, the speaker module can also be pulled out from the first mounting cavity, which can reduce the weight of the temple and provide the user with a more diverse and comfortable user experience.
[0009] On the other hand, the speaker module is detachably and fixedly connected inside the temple body, allowing the removed speaker module to also be used as headphones, enriching the user experience and bringing more convenience. For example, the speaker module can be adjusted to a low volume mode and worn in the ear canal, or even used as a pure headphone. The smart glasses can also be enhanced into a device with movie-watching capabilities and a pure audio source experience. Furthermore, the same temple body can be adapted to different speaker modules, and replacing the detachable speaker module facilitates upgrades and matching, improving the user experience and facilitating repairs.
[0010] Therefore, the temples provided in this application embodiment can reduce the weight of the temples while ensuring the sound quality of the speaker module, thereby improving the user's wearing comfort and enriching the user experience.
[0011] In one possible implementation, a portion of the speaker module is located within the first mounting cavity, while another portion extends through an opening into the external space of the temple body. With this design, the speaker module protrudes relative to the outer wall of the temple body. The larger speaker module improves sound quality, while the temple body is made slimmer, reducing weight and enhancing user comfort and overall experience.
[0012] In one possible implementation, an elastic abutment structure is provided between the speaker module and the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity. The elastic abutment structure includes a spring-loaded portion disposed on the cavity wall and a spring-loaded portion disposed on the speaker module. The spring-loaded portion and the spring-loaded portion are elastically pressed together in a direction perpendicular to a first direction, so that the speaker module is elastically engaged with the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity. Using the above solution, an elastic abutment structure is provided inside the temple, achieving elastic engagement between the speaker module and the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity in the temple body, making the connection more reliable when the speaker module is fixedly connected within the first mounting cavity.
[0013] In one possible implementation, at least one of the spring-loaded part and the spring-loaded part of the elastic abutment structure is a spring sheet. This structure is simple, provides high reliability in fixing the speaker module to the cavity wall, and facilitates easy insertion and removal of the speaker module.
[0014] In one possible implementation, the spring-loaded portion is a spring piece fixedly connected to the cavity wall and protruding from the inner surface of the cavity wall, and the spring-loaded portion is a portion of the outer surface of the speaker module. Alternatively, the spring-loaded portion is a portion of the inner surface of the cavity wall, and the spring-loaded portion is a spring piece fixedly connected to the speaker module and protruding from the outer surface of the speaker module.
[0015] In one possible implementation, the spring-loaded part is a spring piece fixedly connected to the cavity wall and protruding from the inner surface of the cavity wall, and the spring-loaded part is a groove formed on the outer surface of the speaker module. Alternatively, the spring-loaded part is a groove formed on the inner surface of the cavity wall, and the spring-loaded part is a spring piece fixedly connected to the speaker module and protruding from the outer surface of the speaker module. Using the above solutions, the spring-loaded part of the elastic abutment structure can be set as a spring piece, and correspondingly, the spring-loaded part can be set as a groove. Alternatively, the spring-loaded part can also be set with a groove, and correspondingly, the spring-loaded part can be set as a spring piece. Its structure is simple and diverse, easy to manufacture and implement, and the spring piece can be inserted into the groove, which can also limit the spring piece from sliding out in the first direction, further improving the connection reliability of the speaker module in the first mounting cavity.
[0016] In one possible implementation, the spring extends in an arc shape in the first direction. The end of the spring away from the opening is the fixed end, and the end of the spring near the opening is either the fixed end or the free end. Using this design, the spring can better elastically abut against the contact surface (e.g., the bottom surface of a groove). Simultaneously, during the insertion of the speaker module into the first mounting cavity, the arc-shaped spring can better guide the speaker module to slide to the elastically engaged position, allowing the speaker module to be inserted more smoothly into the first mounting cavity for secure fixing, thus ensuring a better user experience.
[0017] In one possible implementation, multiple elastic abutment structures are arranged at intervals on a surface perpendicular to the first direction. This further enhances the stability of the speaker module fixed inside the temple body.
[0018] In one possible implementation, at least one elastic abutment structure is provided between the speaker module and the corresponding portions of the cavity wall on both sides in the second direction, which is perpendicular to the first direction. The second direction can be understood as any direction perpendicular to the first direction. This allows the speaker module to be subjected to elastic compressive force applied by the elastic abutment structures on opposite sides, thereby improving the stability of the speaker module fixed inside the temple body.
[0019] In one possible implementation, the cavity wall includes an inner cavity sidewall and an outer cavity sidewall disposed opposite each other in the thickness direction of the temple body, and a cavity bottom wall connecting the inner cavity sidewall and the outer cavity sidewall. The cavity bottom wall is disposed opposite to the opening in a first direction, which is parallel to the width direction of the temple body. An elastic abutment structure is provided between the inner cavity sidewall and / or the outer cavity sidewall and the corresponding part of the speaker module.
[0020] With the above solution, the elastic abutment structure is set in the corresponding area between the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity and the speaker module. The snap-fit position is more precise, and the reliability of the fixed connection is higher. In addition, the area of the inner side wall and / or outer side wall of the first mounting cavity is relatively large, and the area of the side corresponding to the speaker module is also relatively large. This allows for the better placement of one or more elastic abutment structures. While taking into account the structural reliability of the cavity wall and the speaker module, it also improves the connection reliability of the speaker module in the first mounting cavity, which is beneficial to improving the user experience.
[0021] Furthermore, the first direction is parallel to the width direction of the temple body. In other words, the opening faces the first direction, and the speaker module fixed inside the temple body can extend to the outside of the temple body through the opening along the width direction of the temple body. This decouples the width dimension of the temple body from the corresponding dimension of the speaker module. While ensuring a large speaker module with good sound effects, the width of the temple body can be made narrower, thus making the temple body thinner, reducing the weight of the temple, ensuring user comfort, and resulting in a more compact and aesthetically pleasing appearance.
[0022] In one possible implementation, a plurality of elastic abutment structures are provided between the inner sidewall and / or outer sidewall of the cavity and the corresponding part of the speaker module, arranged at intervals along the length of the temple body.
[0023] Using the above solution, multiple elastic abutment structures can be provided on one side of the speaker module, which can strengthen the elastic abutment strength between the speaker module and the wall of the first mounting cavity and improve the connection reliability of the speaker module in the first mounting cavity.
[0024] In one possible implementation, the cavity wall further includes a front cavity wall and a rear cavity wall disposed opposite to each other in the length direction of the temple body. One end of the front cavity wall and one end of the rear cavity wall are respectively connected to the bottom wall of the cavity, and the other end of the front cavity wall and the other end of the rear cavity wall extend to the opening. The front cavity wall and the rear cavity wall are both connected between the inner side wall and the outer side wall of the cavity, so as to isolate the first mounting cavity from other mounting cavities in the temple body.
[0025] With the above solution, the first mounting cavity is not connected to the other mounting cavities inside the temple body. Therefore, dust and liquid outside the temple body are not easily allowed to enter the other mounting cavities inside the temple body through the opening of the first mounting cavity, ensuring the reliability of the devices in the other mounting cavities inside the temple body, thereby improving the reliability of the temples in smart glasses.
[0026] In one possible implementation, the temple body includes a top wall, a bottom wall, an inner wall and an outer wall connecting the top wall and the bottom wall. The top wall and the bottom wall are arranged opposite each other in the width direction of the temple body, and the inner wall and the outer wall are arranged opposite each other in the thickness direction of the temple body. A baffle wall is provided inside the temple body, forming a front wall, a bottom wall, and a rear wall of the cavity. The regions of the inner wall and the outer wall located in the first mounting cavity serve as the inner wall and the outer wall of the cavity, respectively. An opening is located in the bottom wall, and there is a gap between the bottom wall and the top wall; alternatively, the opening is located in the top wall, and there is a gap between the bottom wall and the top wall, wherein the mounting cavity located in front of the first mounting cavity and the mounting cavity located behind the first mounting cavity within the temple body are connected through the gap.
[0027] With the above solution, the inner wall of the temple body is used as the inner wall of the first mounting cavity, and the outer wall of the temple body is used as the outer wall of the first mounting cavity, while the speaker module has more installation space, thus ensuring its sound quality and improving the user experience. On the other hand, the processing of the first mounting cavity is relatively simple, and the structure of the temple body can be directly reused, making it easy to process and implement.
[0028] Furthermore, there is a gap between the bottom wall of the first mounting cavity and the top or bottom wall of the temple body. This gap can connect the mounting cavity located in front of the first mounting cavity and the mounting cavity located behind the first mounting cavity. In this case, it is convenient to arrange wiring (e.g., FPC board) in the gap so that electronic components in the front and rear cavities can be electrically connected through the wiring passing through the gap. This is beneficial for integrating electronic units in the temple, improving space utilization, and facilitating maintenance.
[0029] In one possible implementation, the speaker module includes a speaker and a housing, with the speaker housed inside the housing, and the outer surface of the housing constituting the outer surface of the speaker module. Using this approach, the housing provides physical protection for the speaker. During the disassembly and installation of the speaker module, the housing prevents dust and moisture from entering the speaker, extending its lifespan. Furthermore, the flexible abutment structure on the housing protects the integrity and reliability of the speaker's structure.
[0030] In one possible implementation, the speaker module includes a speaker and a first electronic unit. The first electronic unit includes a processor and an audio module, with the audio module electrically connected to both the processor and the speaker. By integrating the processor and audio module within the speaker module, it can independently implement audio functions, meeting the needs of users in applications such as playing music. Therefore, the speaker's audio function can be achieved without electrically connecting the speaker module to electronic units in other mounting cavities within the temple body.
[0031] In one possible implementation, the first electronic unit may further include a battery module and a charging management module, with the charging management module electrically connected to both the processor and the battery module. The battery module can also power other electronic components in the speaker module, meeting their power requirements.
[0032] In one possible implementation, the first electronic unit further includes a wireless communication module, which is communicatively connected to the processor. The first electronic unit also includes a microphone, which is electrically connected to the audio module. Using the above solution, the wireless communication module enables the speaker module to communicate with electronic units or other electronic devices (e.g., mobile phones) in other mounting cavities within the temple body. This allows for better intelligent interaction between the speaker module and other electronic units or other electronic devices in other mounting cavities. Furthermore, the integrated microphone function enriches the user experience of the speaker module.
[0033] In one possible implementation, a second mounting cavity is formed inside the temple body, and the temple also includes a second electronic unit disposed within the second mounting cavity. The temple also includes a connector, which is fixedly connected inside the temple body. The speaker module is electrically connected to the second electronic unit via the connector, allowing the second electronic unit to transmit current and / or audio signals to the speaker module through the connector. The second electronic unit (e.g., a battery module within another mounting cavity inside the temple body) transmits current signals to the speaker module via the connector, thus adding a charging function to the speaker module and increasing its battery life. The second electronic unit transmitting audio signals to the speaker module via the connector offers higher connection reliability and more stable signal transmission, which improves the reliability of user experience.
[0034] In one possible implementation, the speaker module includes at least one first electrical connection portion. The connector includes a base and at least one second electrical connection portion disposed on the base. The base is fixedly connected to the interior of the temple body, and the at least one second electrical connection portion is electrically connected to a second electronic unit. Each of the at least one second electrical connection portion corresponds to one of the at least one first electrical connection portion, and there is a flexible electrical connection between the second electrical connection portion and the corresponding first electrical connection portion.
[0035] Using the above solution, the speaker module can communicate with the second electronic unit inside the temple body via the first electrical connection and the second electrical connection of the connector. This communication between the speaker module and the second electronic unit inside the temple body is more stable, resulting in higher reliability of the speaker module. Furthermore, the speaker module can be electrically connected to a battery module located in another mounting cavity within the temple body via the electrical connection between the first and second electrical connections. This battery module transmits current signals to the speaker module, supplying power and enhancing its battery life.
[0036] Furthermore, the second electrical connection is elastically connected to the corresponding first electrical connection, so that when the second electrical connection and the corresponding first electrical connection are squeezed along their axial direction, they have a certain floating displacement, which can eliminate the squeezing force generated, avoid hard damage to the second electrical connection and the corresponding first electrical connection, and ensure the stability of the electrical contact between the second electrical connection and the corresponding first electrical connection.
[0037] In one possible implementation, the speaker module has a first connection hole corresponding to the first electrical connection portion, which is accommodated within the first connection hole. A second electrical connection portion protrudes from the outer surface of the base and contacts the first electrical connection portion within the corresponding first connection hole. A damping component is fitted between the outer wall of the second electrical connection portion and the inner wall of the first connection hole, elastically pressing against the second electrical connection portion. Using this solution, the damping component can improve the reliability of the electrical connection between the first and second electrical connections and also enhance the feel of the speaker module during insertion and removal, thus improving the user experience.
[0038] In one possible implementation, the damping component is elastically pressed between the inner wall of the second electrical connection and the first connection hole.
[0039] In one possible implementation, the base is provided with a second connection hole corresponding to the second electrical connection part, the second electrical connection part is accommodated in the second connection hole, the first electrical connection part protrudes from the outer surface of the speaker module and contacts the second electrical connection part in the corresponding second connection hole, and a damping member is sleeved between the outer wall surface of the first electrical connection part and the inner wall surface of the second connection hole, the damping member elastically pressing against the first electrical connection part.
[0040] In one possible implementation, the damping component is elastically pressed between the inner wall surfaces of the first electrical connection and the second connection hole.
[0041] In one possible implementation, the damping component is a rubber ring.
[0042] In one possible implementation, a plug-in structure is provided between the base and the speaker module. The plug-in structure includes a plug-in portion disposed on the base and a plugged-in portion disposed on the speaker module, with the plug-in portion and the plugged-in portion being plugged into and fixed to each other. Using this solution, the plug-in structure can improve the connection reliability of the speaker module (especially on the side where the first electrical connection portion is located) within the temple body, ensuring reliable operation for the user.
[0043] In one possible implementation, the plug-in portion and the plugged-in portion are elastically engaged. The plug-in portion is a connecting post protruding from the outer surface of the base, and the plugged-in portion is a connecting hole; or, the plug-in portion is a connecting hole, and the plugged-in portion is a connecting post protruding from the outer surface of the speaker module.
[0044] In one possible implementation, there are two plug-in structures, located on opposite sides of all first electrical connections and all second electrical connections, respectively. By using this scheme, the plug-in structures are spaced apart on both sides of all first electrical connections, which improves the reliability of fixing the speaker module within the temple body within a limited space.
[0045] A second aspect of this application provides a smart glasses system, including the temples provided in the first aspect and any possible implementation thereof, as well as a frame and lenses. One end of the frame is connected to one end of the temples, and the lenses are fixed to the frame. The smart glasses system provided by this application can reduce the weight of the temples while ensuring the sound quality of the speaker module, thereby reducing the overall weight of the glasses, improving user comfort, and enriching the user experience.

[0093] With the rapid development of augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR) technologies, smart glasses with movie-watching capabilities are attracting increasing market attention. These products typically integrate speaker modules within the temples to provide audio output and enhance the user experience. Currently, speaker modules are usually integrated entirely into the temple body of the smart glasses, and the size of the speaker module is strongly correlated with the size of the temple body; increasing the speaker module size leads to a corresponding increase in the temple body size. However, speaker modules with better sound quality are often larger, further increasing the size and weight of the temple body, directly impacting user comfort and hindering the overall user experience.
[0094] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides a temple with a detachable and pluggable speaker module. This decouples the temple body size from the speaker module size, allowing for a thinner temple body while maintaining a large speaker module for good sound quality. This reduces the temple's weight, improves user comfort, and enhances the user experience.
[0095] This application also provides a smart glasses configuration with the aforementioned temples. This allows the smart glasses to reduce the weight of the temples while ensuring the sound quality of the speaker module, thereby reducing the overall weight of the device, improving user comfort, and enriching the user experience. The smart glasses can be, but are not limited to, smart glasses with audio functionality, or smart glasses with display functionality such as Virtual Reality (VR), Augmented Reality (AR), or Mixed Reality (MR), or smart glasses with both audio and display functionality. This application will specifically describe the structure of smart glasses with audio functionality.
[0096] Please see Figures 1-3 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the smart glasses according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the temple structure of the smart glasses in an embodiment of this application. Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram showing the connection relationship of electronic components in the smart glasses of this application embodiment.
[0097] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the smart glasses 100 includes temples 3, a frame 2, and lenses 1. One end 21 of the frame 2 is connected to one end 31 of the temple 3, and the lenses 1 are fixed to the frame 2. The connection method between the frame 2 and the temple 3 is not limited. In one possible implementation, one end 21 of the frame 2 is rotatably connected to one end 31 of the temple 3. In other possible implementations, one end 21 of the frame 2 is fixedly connected to one end 31 of the temple 3.
[0098] It should be noted that the smart glasses 100 may include two temples 3, or may have only one temple 3; this embodiment of the application does not impose any limitation on this. Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment of the application uses a smart glasses 100 with two temples 3 as an example for illustration. Furthermore, the structures of the two temples 3 in the smart glasses 100 can be the same or different, and this embodiment of the application does not impose any limitations on this. The specific structures of the temples 3 will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0099] In one possible implementation, such as Figure 1 As shown, the ends of the two temples 3 (i.e. Figure 1 One end 31) is connected to the left and right ends of the frame 2 respectively (i.e. Figure 1One end 21 of the two temples 3 is provided, allowing the temple 3 to rotate relative to the frame 2, thus enabling the smart glasses 100 to switch between an open state and a folded state. For example, one end 31 of each temple 3 is rotatably and detachably connected to the left and right ends 21 of the frame 2 via a connecting shaft (not shown in the figure). That is, the end 31 of the temple 3 on the left side of the smart glasses 100 is rotatably and detachably connected to the left end 21 of the frame 2 via a connecting shaft, and the end 31 of the temple 3 on the right side of the smart glasses 100 is also rotatably and detachably connected to the right end 21 of the frame 2 via a connecting shaft. It should be noted that the temple 3 and the frame 2 can also be non-detachably connected; this embodiment does not limit this.
[0100] Those skilled in the art will understand that when the smart glasses 100 are worn on a user's head, the left side of the smart glasses 100 is the side of the smart glasses 100 closest to the left side of the user's head, and the right side of the smart glasses 100 is the side of the smart glasses 100 closest to the right side of the user's head. The left end 21 of the frame 2 is the end 21 of the frame 2 closest to the left side of the user's head, and the right end 21 of the frame 2 is the end 21 of the frame 2 closest to the right side of the user's head. The end 31 of the temple 3 mentioned above is the end of the temple 3 along its length direction closest to the frame 2. The length direction of the temple 3 can be understood as the direction of the temple's extension path, for example, as... Figure 1 The direction of the temple bending is shown.
[0101] It should be noted that the specific structure and type of lens 1 in smart glasses 100 are not limited. In one possible implementation, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the smart glasses 100 has two lenses 1, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the frame 2. In other possible implementations, there may be only one lens 1, and this embodiment of the application does not limit this.
[0102] In one possible implementation, lens 1 can be a lens already available in the art capable of displaying the image output by the display unit, such as an optical waveguide lens. Those skilled in the art will understand that in other possible implementations, lens 1 can also be a common lens in the art that cannot display images. In this case, the smart glasses 100 does not have a display unit and cannot display images, only having audio functionality.
[0103] Furthermore, the specific structure of the frame 2 is not limited. It is understood that the frame 2 is used to mount the lens 1, and its structure can be reasonably designed according to the needs of the lens 1. Its material can be metal, plastic, or carbon fiber, etc., and this embodiment does not impose any limitations on this. In one possible implementation, the frame 2 may also have a nose pad or other structure (not shown in the figure).
[0104] The above text provides a brief description of the basic structure of the smart glasses 100. The following text will explain the smart functions of the smart glasses 100 and the transmission method of electrical signals.
[0105] It should be noted that, as Figure 1 As shown, the smart glasses 100 may also include various electronic components (not shown) and circuit boards (not shown). There may be one or more circuit boards, such as a main board and sub-boards. Each electronic component may be integrated onto the circuit board, or it may be set up separately and then connected to the circuit board or other components via wired, wireless, or other means.
[0106] like Figure 3 As shown, in one possible implementation, the smart glasses 100 may include a processor 71, a battery module 72, a charging management module 73, a power management module 74, a speaker 41, a microphone 75, an audio module 76, a wireless communication module 77, an optical engine 22, a camera module 23, etc. It is understood that the structures illustrated in the embodiments of this application do not constitute a specific limitation on the smart glasses 100. In other possible implementations of the embodiments of this application, the smart glasses 100 may include more or fewer components than illustrated, or combine some components, or split some components, or have different component arrangements. The illustrated components may be implemented in hardware, software, or a combination of software and hardware.
[0107] The processor 71 can be used to parse signals, process data, generate program instructions, and control other electronic devices to perform operations, such as controlling the operation of devices like the speaker 41, microphone 75, optomechanical unit 22, and camera module 23. The processor 71 may include one or more processing units, such as a central processing unit (CPU), application processor (AP), modem processing unit, graphics processing unit (GPU), image signal processor (ISP), and video processing unit (VPU), and may also include a controller, memory, video codec, and digital signal processor (DSP).
[0108] The charging management module 73 is used to receive charging input from the charger. The charger can be a wireless charger or a wired charger 8. In some wired charging implementations, the charging management module 73 can receive charging input from the wired charger 8 through the charging interface 731 (see...). Figure 7cThe charging management module 73 receives the wireless charging input from the wireless charging coil of the smart glasses 100. While charging the battery module 72, the charging management module 73 can also power the smart glasses 100 via the power management module 74. The power management module 74 connects the battery module 72, the charging management module 73, and the processor 71. The power management module 74 receives input from the battery module 72 and / or the charging management module 73, and powers the processor 71, internal memory, speaker 41, microphone 75, optomechanical system 22, camera module 23, and wireless communication module 77. The power management module 74 can also monitor parameters such as battery capacity, battery cycle count, and battery health status (leakage, impedance).
[0109] Speaker 41 and microphone 75 are the audio devices of smart glasses 100. Speaker 41 is used to play sound, and microphone 75 is used to pick up sound. The wearer can interact with smart glasses 100 via voice through the audio devices. Audio module 76 is used to convert digital audio information into analog audio signals for output, and also to convert analog audio input into digital audio signals. Audio module 76 can also be used for encoding and decoding audio signals. Speaker 41 is used to convert audio electrical signals into sound signals. Smart glasses 100 can listen to music or play movie sounds through speaker 41, or listen to hands-free calls. Microphone 75 is used to convert sound signals into electrical signals. When sending voice information, the user can speak by bringing their mouth close to microphone 75, inputting sound signals into microphone 75. Wireless communication module 77 is used to send and receive wireless signals to realize communication functions.
[0110] The optical engine 22 can transmit image information to be displayed to the lens 1, and the lens 1 can display the image information transmitted by the optical engine 22, so that the image information can be seen by the wearer. The camera module 23 can capture image information of the real world in real time and transmit it to the processor 71.
[0111] It should be noted that the placement of the electronic components mentioned above in the smart glasses 100 is not limited. In one possible implementation, some of the electronic components mentioned above can be integrated into the temple 3. For example, the processor 71, battery module 72, charging management module 73, power management module 74, speaker 41, microphone 75, audio module 76, and wireless communication module 77 can be integrated into the temple 3. Some of the electronic components mentioned above can be integrated into the frame 2 and / or lens 1. For example, the optical engine 22 and camera module 23 can be integrated into the frame 2. This enables some intelligent functions of the smart glasses 100, such as audio output, VR display, AR display, information prompts, charging and discharging, etc. The placement of the electronic components in the temple 3 will be explained in detail below in conjunction with the specific structure of the temple 3.
[0112] It should be noted that when the smart glasses 100 includes two temples 3, the electronic components integrated in the two temples 3 can be the same or different (see [reference]). Figure 2 This application does not limit the scope of the embodiments.
[0113] The following section will illustrate the specific structure of one temple 3 with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0114] Please see Figures 4a-4f , Figure 4a This is a partial structural diagram of the temple of a mirror according to an embodiment of this application (at this time, the speaker module is in a disassembled state). Figure 4b This is a side view of the temple structure according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 4c This is an exploded view of the temple of the mirror according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 4d This is a front view schematic diagram of the temple structure according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 4e for Figure 4d A schematic diagram of the cross-sectional structure along the AA direction. Figure 4f This is a schematic diagram of another possible implementation of the first mounting cavity inside the temple of the lens in an embodiment of this application.
[0115] In one possible implementation, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4a As shown, the temple 3 includes a temple body 32, which can be understood as the outer shell of the temple 3. An internal mounting cavity is formed therein, such as the first mounting cavity 33 for accommodating the speaker module 4, and the second mounting cavity 34 for accommodating the second electronic unit 7 (which may include a battery module 72), as mentioned below. The temple body 32 also serves to protect the internal components of the temple 3.
[0116] It should be noted that the specific structure of the temple body 32 is not limited. In one possible implementation, such as... Figure 4a and Figure 4b As shown, the temple body 32 includes a top wall 323, a bottom wall 324, an inner side wall 325 and an outer side wall 326 connecting the top wall 323 and the bottom wall 324. The top wall 323 and the bottom wall 324 are arranged opposite each other in the width direction X1 of the temple body, and the inner side wall 325 and the outer side wall 326 are arranged opposite each other in the thickness direction Z1 of the temple body. Alternatively, when the user wears the smart glasses 100, the top wall 323 and the bottom wall 324 are located on the side away from the user's ear and the side facing the user's ear, respectively, while the inner side wall 325 and the outer side wall 326 are located on the side facing the user's head and the side away from the user's head, respectively. The top wall 323, the bottom wall 324, the inner side wall 325, and the outer side wall 326 together form a receiving cavity. The temple body 32 can be made of metal, plastic, or carbon fiber, etc., and this embodiment does not limit this.
[0117] In this context, the width direction X1 of the temple body can be understood as the width direction of temple 3, corresponding to the vertical direction of temple 3 when the user wears the smart glasses 100. The thickness direction Z1 of the temple body can be understood as the thickness direction of temple 3, corresponding to the left-right direction of temple 3 when the user wears the glasses. The length direction Y1 of the temple body can be understood as the length direction of temple 3.
[0118] It should be noted that the overall shape of the temple body 32 is not limited. Specifically, the cross-sectional outer contour of the temple body 32 can be rectangular, or it can be a rectangle with rounded corners, an ellipse, or something else. Figure 4a and Figure 4b The irregular shape of the temple body 32 is not limited in this application embodiment. Regardless of the shape of the temple body 32, it can always be defined that the side facing the user's ear is the bottom wall 324, the side away from the user's ear is the top wall 323, the side facing the user's head is the inner wall 325, and the side away from the user's head is the outer wall 326.
[0119] It should be noted that the temple body 32 can be a one-piece structure or a split structure, for example, by fastening different parts together to form a receiving cavity. In one possible implementation, such as... Figure 4a and Figure 4b As shown, the temple body 32 includes a first portion 321 and a second portion 322 disposed inside the first portion 321. That is, the second portion 322 is the part of the temple body 32 closest to the head when the smart glasses 100 are worn. The first portion 321 and the second portion 322 are disposed opposite each other in the thickness direction Z1 of the temple body. The first portion 321 and the second portion 322 of the temple body 32 are interlocked to form a mounting cavity inside the temple body 32.
[0120] It is understood that the cavity structure of the second part 322 in the temple body 32 is arranged opposite to the first part 321, and will not be described in detail here. That is, the first part 321 includes a part of the top wall 323, a part of the bottom wall 324 and an outer wall 326, and the second part 322 includes another part of the top wall 323, another part of the bottom wall 324 and an inner wall 325.
[0121] Understandable, such as Figure 2As shown, to meet the needs of different users, the smart glasses 100 can also be equipped with a speaker module 4 to realize audio output and intelligent interaction. It should be noted that the speaker module 4 can be installed on one temple 3 or both temples 3, depending on user needs. Those skilled in the art can configure it reasonably according to actual requirements. When both temples 3 are equipped with speaker modules 4, the structures of the speaker modules 4 in the two temples 3 can be the same or different. This application embodiment uses the example of a single temple 3 equipped with a speaker module 4 in the smart glasses 100 for illustration.
[0122] The following section will describe the scenario where a speaker module 4 is installed in the temple 3, with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0123] like Figures 4b-4e As shown, the temple 3 also includes a speaker module 4, which includes a speaker 41. A first mounting cavity 33 is formed inside the temple body 32. The speaker module 4 is disposed within the first mounting cavity 33 and is detachably fixedly connected to the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33. The cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33 can be understood as the wall surrounding the first mounting cavity 33. It should be noted that the entire cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33 can be independently disposed from the temple body 32, or it can be reused from the wall of the temple body 32 (which can be understood as the wall of the temple body 32 serving as the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33), or a portion of the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33 can be independently disposed from the temple body 32, while another portion can be reused from the wall of the temple body 32 (see [reference]). Figure 4f This application does not limit the scope of the embodiments described herein. The specific description of this part is elaborated below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0124] like Figures 4b-4e As shown, an opening 331 is provided in one wall (e.g., bottom wall 324) of the temple body 32 at the position of the first mounting cavity 33. The first mounting cavity 33 communicates with the external space of the temple body 32 through the opening 331. The opening 331 allows the speaker module 4 to pass through and be inserted into the first mounting cavity 33 along the first direction X2 or to be pulled out of the first mounting cavity 33.
[0125] In this embodiment, the first direction X2 can be parallel to the width direction X1 of the temple body, meaning the opening 331 can be located on one side of the temple body 32 in its width direction. Alternatively, the first direction X2 can be parallel to the thickness direction Z1 of the temple body, meaning the opening 331 can be located on one side of the thickness direction Z1 of the temple body. This embodiment does not impose any limitations on this. The following description uses the example of the first direction X2 being parallel to the width direction X1 of the temple body.
[0126] like Figures 4a-4cAs shown, the speaker module 4 is disposed in the first mounting cavity 33 of the temple body 32 and is detachably fixed to the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33. The speaker module 4 can be inserted into or removed from the first mounting cavity 33 through the opening 331 on the wall of the temple body 32. This allows for easy insertion and removal of the speaker module 4 and ensures the reliable fixation of the speaker module 4 within the temple body 32. Meanwhile, the speaker module 4, fixed inside the temple body 32, can extend to the outside of the temple body 32 through the opening 331 on the temple body 32. This decouples the size of the temple body 32 from the size of the speaker module 4. While ensuring a large speaker module 4 with good sound effects, the temple body 32 can be made thinner (meaning a smaller cross-section, for example, a smaller width and / or thickness). This effectively avoids the adverse effects of using a large temple body 32, thereby reducing the weight of the temple 3, ensuring user comfort, and resulting in a more compact and aesthetically pleasing appearance. Therefore, the smart glasses 100 can be made comfortable and aesthetically pleasing while also maintaining the sound quality of the speaker 41.
[0127] Furthermore, when users have needs, such as Figure 4b and Figure 4d As shown, the speaker module 4 is fixedly connected within the first mounting cavity 33 of the temple body 32 to realize the audio function of the speaker 41. When the user does not need to use the speaker module 4, as... Figure 4a As shown, the speaker module 4 can also be pulled out from the first mounting cavity 33, which can reduce the weight of the temple 3 and provide users with a more diverse and comfortable user experience.
[0128] On the other hand, such as Figure 4a and Figure 4b As shown, the speaker module 4 is detachably and fixedly connected inside the temple body 32, allowing the detached speaker module 4 to also be used as headphones, enriching the user experience and bringing more convenience. For example, the speaker module 4 can also be adjusted to a low volume mode and worn in the ear canal, or even used as a pure headphone. The smart glasses 100 can also be enhanced into a device with movie-watching functions and a pure audio source experience. Furthermore, the same temple body 32 can be adapted to different speaker modules 4, and replacing the detachable speaker module 4 facilitates upgrades and matching, which is beneficial to improving the user experience and facilitating maintenance.
[0129] Therefore, the temple 3 provided in this application embodiment can reduce the weight of the temple 3 while ensuring the sound quality of the speaker module 4, thereby improving the user's wearing comfort and enriching the user's experience.
[0130] Furthermore, such as Figure 4b and Figure 4d As shown, in one possible implementation, a portion of the speaker module 4 is located within the first mounting cavity 33, while another portion extends through the opening 331 to the external space of the temple body 32. That is, the speaker module 4 can partially protrude from the temple body 32. In this way, the speaker module 4 protrudes relative to the outer wall of the temple body 32. The larger speaker module 4 improves its sound quality, while the temple body 32 is made slimmer, which helps reduce the weight of the temple body 3, improves user comfort, and ensures a better user experience.
[0131] It should be noted that in other possible implementations, the speaker module 4 may also be located entirely within the first mounting cavity 33, and this application embodiment does not limit this.
[0132] In one possible implementation, such as Figure 4c As shown, the speaker module 4 also includes a housing 43, with the speaker 41 disposed inside the housing 43. The outer surface of the housing 43 constitutes the outer surface of the speaker module 4. With this structure, the housing 43 provides physical protection for the speaker 41. During the disassembly and installation of the speaker module 4, the housing 43 prevents dust, moisture, and other contaminants from entering the speaker 41, extending its service life. Furthermore, the housing 43 is provided with an elastic abutment structure 5 (i.e., a spring-loaded portion 52 is provided on the surface of the housing 43 opposite to the first mounting cavity 33), which protects the integrity and reliability of the speaker 41's structure.
[0133] It should be noted that the speaker module 4 may also be without the outer shell 43. In this case, the outer surface of the speaker 41 shell constitutes the outer surface of the speaker module 4. The speaker 41 shell can be understood as the main structural component in the speaker 41 that allows other devices to be installed and ensures structural strength. For example, it may include, but is not limited to, the speaker 411 fixing bracket 411, front cover 412, magnetic circuit system 415 and other components mentioned below. This application embodiment does not limit this.
[0134] The following section will provide a detailed description of the specific structure of the first mounting cavity 33 in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0135] Please see Figure 5 and Figure 6 , Figure 5 This is an enlarged schematic diagram of a portion of the structure of the first mounting cavity of the temple in an embodiment of this application. Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the speaker module in the temple of a mirror according to an embodiment of this application.
[0136] It should be noted that the specific structure of the first mounting cavity 33 is not limited. In one possible implementation, such as... Figure 4e and Figure 5As shown, the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33 includes an inner sidewall 332 and an outer sidewall 333 disposed opposite to each other in the thickness direction Z1 of the temple body, and a bottom wall 334 connecting the inner sidewall 332 and the outer sidewall 333. The bottom wall 334 and the opening 331 are disposed opposite to each other in the first direction X2. The inner sidewall 332 is the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33 closest to the user's head when the user wears the smart glasses 100, and the outer sidewall 333 is the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33 furthest from the user's head when the user wears the smart glasses 100.
[0137] In one possible implementation, such as Figure 4e and Figure 5 As shown, the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33 may further include a front cavity wall 335 and a rear cavity wall 336 disposed opposite each other in the longitudinal direction Y1 of the temple body, wherein one end of the front cavity wall 335 and one end of the rear cavity wall 336 are respectively connected to the bottom wall 334 of the cavity. The other ends of the front cavity wall 335 and the rear cavity wall 336 extend to the opening 331, and both the front cavity wall 335 and the rear cavity wall 336 are connected between the inner side wall 332 and the outer side wall 333 of the cavity, so as to isolate the first mounting cavity 33 from other mounting cavities (e.g., the second mounting cavity 34) in the temple body 32. The front cavity wall 335 is the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33 close to the lens 1 when the user wears the smart glasses 100, and the rear cavity wall 336 is the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33 away from the lens 1 when the user wears the glasses. In this way, the first mounting cavity 33 is not connected to the other mounting cavities in the temple body 32. Therefore, dust and liquid outside the temple body 32 are not easily allowed to enter the other mounting cavities in the temple body 32 through the opening 331 of the first mounting cavity 33. This ensures the reliability of the devices (which can be electronic or non-electronic) in the other mounting cavities in the temple body 32, thereby improving the reliability of the temple 3 in the smart glasses 100.
[0138] It should be noted that the front wall 335 of the cavity and the temple body 32 can be an integral structure or a separate structure, and the rear wall 336 of the cavity and the temple body 32 can be an integral structure or a separate structure. This application embodiment does not limit this.
[0139] In other possible implementations, the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33 may not have a front cavity wall 335 and / or a rear cavity wall 336. That is, the front and / or rear parts of the first mounting cavity 33 may also be open in the length direction Y1 of the temple body. In this case, the first mounting cavity 33 is connected to other mounting cavities (e.g., the second mounting cavity 34) in the temple body 32.
[0140] It is understood that the first mounting cavity 33 and the second mounting cavity 34 are independent mounting cavities, which may or may not be connected. Those skilled in the art can make reasonable settings according to actual needs.
[0141] The length direction Y1 of the temple body can be understood as the extension direction of the temple body 32 when the user wears the glasses, for example, as Figure 1 The bending direction of the temple body 32 shown.
[0142] It should be noted that the inner wall 332 of the cavity can be reused from the wall of the temple body 32, or it can be set independently from the temple body 32 (in this case, the two can be an integral structure or a separate structure). The outer wall 333 of the cavity can be reused from the wall of the temple body 32, or it can be set independently from the temple body 32 (in this case, the two can be an integral structure or a separate structure). This application embodiment does not limit this.
[0143] In one possible implementation, such as Figure 4e As shown, the regions of the inner sidewall 325 and outer sidewall 326 of the temple body 32 located in the first mounting cavity 33 are respectively used as the inner sidewall 332 and outer sidewall 333 of the cavity. Alternatively, it can be understood that the inner sidewall 332 of the first mounting cavity 33 can be partially reused from the inner sidewall 325 of the temple body 32, and the outer sidewall 333 of the first mounting cavity 33 can be partially reused from the outer sidewall 326 of the temple body 32. With this structure, while maintaining the same cross-sectional dimensions of the temple body 32, the inner sidewall 325 of the temple body 32 serves as the inner sidewall 332 of the first mounting cavity 33, and the outer sidewall 326 of the temple body 32 serves as the outer sidewall 333 of the first mounting cavity. This allows for a larger installation space for the speaker module 4, ensuring sound quality and improving the user experience. Furthermore, the first mounting cavity 33 is relatively simple to manufacture, as it can directly reuse part of the structure of the temple body 32, making it easy to implement.
[0144] Furthermore, such as Figure 4f As shown, the cavity bottom wall 334 can be reused from the wall of the temple body 32, such as... Figure 4e As shown, the cavity bottom wall 334 can also be set independently from the temple body 32 (in this case, the cavity bottom wall 334 and the temple body 32 can be an integral structure or a separate structure), and this application embodiment does not limit this.
[0145] In one possible implementation, such as Figure 4b , Figure 4e and Figure 5As shown, the temple body 32 has a baffle 327 inside, which forms the front wall 335, the bottom wall 334, and the rear wall 336 of the cavity. Alternatively, the baffle 327 can be understood as U-shaped. This structure is simple and has a low cost. It should be noted that the baffle 327 and the temple body 32 can be an integral or separate structure; this embodiment does not impose any limitations on this.
[0146] In other possible implementations, the baffle 327 may also adopt other structural forms. For example, the baffle 327 may adopt an L-shaped structure, which forms the front wall 335 and the bottom wall 334 of the cavity, or the L-shaped structure may form the rear wall 336 and the bottom wall 334 of the cavity. The baffle 327 may also adopt a structural form that forms the front wall 335 and the rear wall 336 of the cavity. The embodiments of this application do not limit this.
[0147] Furthermore, the location of the opening 331 on the first mounting cavity 33 is not limited. In one possible implementation, such as Figure 4a , Figure 4e and Figure 5 As shown, opening 331 is located on the bottom wall 324 of temple body 32. At this time, the first direction X2 is parallel to the width direction X1 of temple body. There is a gap S1 between the bottom wall 334 of the first mounting cavity 33 and the top wall 323 of temple body 32. The mounting cavity in front of the first mounting cavity 33 and the mounting cavity in rear of the first mounting cavity 33 in temple body 32 are connected through the gap S1. At this time, it is convenient to arrange wiring (e.g., FPC board) in temple body 32 at the gap S1 so that electronic devices in the front and rear cavities can be electrically connected through the wiring passing through the gap S1. This is beneficial for integrating electronic units in temple 3, improving space utilization, and facilitating maintenance.
[0148] In one example, such as Figure 4c As shown, the second mounting cavity 34 may include, for example, a front mounting cavity 341 and a rear mounting cavity 342, with the front mounting cavity 341 communicating with the rear mounting cavity 342 through a gap S1. The front mounting cavity 341 is located in front of the first mounting cavity 33, and the rear mounting cavity 342 is located behind the first mounting cavity 33. It should be noted that, as... Figure 4c and Figure 3 As shown, the specific electronic devices integrated in the front mounting cavity 341 and the rear mounting cavity 342 are not limited. For example, the front mounting cavity 341 may integrate electronic devices such as processor 71, microphone 75, audio module 76, wireless communication module 77, and power management module 74, while the rear mounting cavity 342 may integrate electronic devices such as battery module 72 and charging management module 73.
[0149] In other possible implementations, the opening 331 may also be located on the top wall 323 of the temple body 32, and there is a gap S1 between the bottom wall 334 of the cavity and the bottom wall 324 of the temple body 32. This application embodiment does not limit this.
[0150] It should be noted that the shape of the opening 331 is not limited, and it can be elliptical, circular, rectangular, or rectangular with rounded corners. Specifically, those skilled in the art can reasonably set it according to the structure of the speaker module 4.
[0151] It should be noted that when the opening 331 is located on the bottom wall 324 of the temple body 32, there may be no gap S1 between the bottom wall 334 of the first mounting cavity 33 and the top wall 323 of the temple body 32. For example, the top wall 323 of the temple body 32 can be directly reused as the bottom wall 334 of the first mounting cavity 33, or the top wall 323 of the temple body 32 and the bottom wall 334 of the first mounting cavity 33 can be independently arranged and connected together. When the opening 331 is located on the top wall 323 of the temple body 32, there may be no gap S1 between the bottom wall 334 of the first mounting cavity 33 and the bottom wall 324 of the temple body 32. For example, the bottom wall 324 of the temple body 32 can be directly reused as the bottom wall 334 of the first mounting cavity 33, or the bottom wall 324 of the temple body 32 and the bottom wall 334 of the first mounting cavity 33 can be independently arranged and connected together. At this time, the structure inside the temple body 32 is simple, and the speaker module 4 has more installation space inside the temple body 32, which is conducive to improving the sound quality of the speaker 41 and thus improving the user experience.
[0152] The following section will describe, with reference to the accompanying drawings, the method of fixing the speaker module 4 within the first mounting cavity 33.
[0153] It should be noted that the method by which the speaker module 4 is detachably fixed within the first mounting cavity 33 is not limited. In one possible implementation, such as... Figure 4c and Figure 4eAs shown, an elastic abutment structure 5 is provided between the speaker module 4 and the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33. The elastic abutment structure 5 includes a spring-loaded portion 51 disposed on the cavity wall and a spring-loaded portion 52 disposed on the speaker module 4. The spring-loaded portion 51 and the spring-loaded portion 52 are elastically pressed in a direction perpendicular to the first direction X2, so that the speaker module 4 is elastically engaged with the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33. That is, the speaker module 4 is detachably fixedly connected to the first mounting cavity 33 by means of elastic engagement. With this structure, the elastic abutment structure 5 is provided in the temple 3. The elastic engagement between the speaker module 4 and the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33 in the temple body 32 is achieved by the elastic abutment structure 5, so that the connection is more reliable when the speaker module 4 is fixedly connected to the first mounting cavity 33. In other possible implementations, the speaker module 4 can also be detachably fixedly connected to the first mounting cavity 33 by means of threaded connection, snap-fit connection, etc. The embodiments of this application do not limit this.
[0154] Furthermore, the specific form of the flexible abutment structure 5 is not limited; in one possible implementation, such as... Figure 4c and Figure 4e As shown, at least one of the spring-loaded portion 51 and the spring-loaded portion 52 of the elastic abutment structure 5 is a spring piece 511. That is, the spring-loaded portion 51 provided on the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33 is a spring piece 511, or the spring-loaded portion 52 provided on the speaker module 4 can also be a spring piece 511. In this case, the structure of the elastic abutment structure 5 is simple, and the fixing reliability between the speaker module 4 and the cavity wall is high, and the speaker module 4 is easy to insert and remove. Both the spring-loaded portion 51 provided on the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33 and the spring-loaded portion 52 provided on the speaker module 4 can be spring pieces 511, and this application embodiment does not limit this.
[0155] Specifically, in one example, such as Figure 4c and Figure 4e As shown, the spring-loaded portion 51 can be a spring piece 511 fixedly connected to the cavity wall and protruding from the inner surface of the cavity wall, and the spring-loaded portion 52 can be a portion of the outer surface of the speaker module 4 (this portion of the outer surface can be recessed relative to other peripheral outer surfaces to form a groove 521, or it can be not recessed relative to other peripheral outer surfaces). In another example, the spring-loaded portion 51 is a portion of the inner surface of the cavity wall (this portion of the outer surface can be recessed relative to other peripheral outer surfaces to form a groove 521, or it can be not recessed relative to other peripheral outer surfaces), and the spring-loaded portion 52 is a spring piece 511 fixedly connected to the speaker module 4 and protruding from the outer surface of the speaker module 4.
[0156] Furthermore, in one possible implementation, such as Figure 4e , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, the spring-loaded part 51 is a spring piece 511 that is fixedly connected to the cavity wall and protrudes from the inner surface of the cavity wall, and the spring-loaded part 52 is a groove 521 formed on the outer surface of the speaker module 4, that is, this part of the outer surface of the speaker module 4 is recessed relative to the other outer surfaces of the surrounding area to form a groove 521.
[0157] In other possible implementations, the spring-loaded portion 51 is a groove (not shown in the figure) formed on the inner surface of the cavity wall, that is, the inner surface of this part of the cavity wall is recessed relative to other inner surfaces of the periphery to form a groove, and the spring-loaded portion 52 is a spring piece fixedly connected to the speaker module 4 and protruding from the outer surface of the speaker module 4. This application embodiment does not limit this.
[0158] In other words, the spring-loaded part 51 of the elastic abutment structure 5 can be set as a spring piece 511, and the corresponding spring-loaded part 52 can be set as a groove 521. The spring-loaded part 51 can also be set as a groove, and the corresponding spring-loaded part 52 can be set as a spring piece. Its structure is simple and diverse, and the processing is simple and easy to realize. Furthermore, the spring piece 511 can be inserted into the groove 521, and the spring piece 511 can also be restricted from sliding out in the first direction X2, which further improves the connection reliability of the speaker module 4 in the first mounting cavity 33.
[0159] Furthermore, the specific structure of the shrapnel 511 is not limited. In one possible implementation, such as... Figure 4e and Figure 5 As shown, the spring piece 511 extends in an arc shape in the first direction X2. The end of the spring piece 511 away from the opening 331 is the fixed end 511A, and the end of the spring piece 511 near the opening 331 is the free end 511B. The fixed end 511A of the spring piece 511 can be understood as one end of the spring piece 511 being fixed to the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33 for support and positioning. The free end of the spring piece 511 can be understood as one end of the spring piece 511 being free, capable of elastic deformation when an external force is applied (i.e., during the insertion and removal of the speaker module 4), and returning to its original shape after the force disappears, thereby allowing the speaker module 4 to be better fixedly connected within the first mounting cavity 33. In this way, the spring piece 511 can better elastically abut against the contact surface (e.g., the bottom surface of the groove 521). At the same time, during the process of inserting the speaker module 4 into the first mounting cavity 33, the arc-shaped spring piece 511 can better guide the speaker module 4 to slide to the elastic snap-fit position, so that the speaker module 4 can be inserted into the first mounting cavity 33 more smoothly and fixed, ensuring the user's experience.
[0160] In other possible implementations, the spring piece 511 may extend in other shapes in the first direction X2, as long as it can provide an elastic clamping force to fix the speaker module 4 to the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33. Furthermore, the two ends of the spring piece 511 may be configured such that the end of the spring piece 511 away from the opening 331 is the fixed end 511A, and the end of the spring piece 511 near the opening 331 is the fixed end 511A; or, the end of the spring piece 511 away from the opening 331 is the free end 511B, and the end of the spring piece 511 near the opening 331 is the fixed end 511A. This application embodiment does not limit this.
[0161] It should be noted that the location of the elastic abutment structure 5 is not limited. For example... Figure 4e As shown, in one possible implementation, an elastic abutment structure 5 is provided between the inner sidewall 332 and the outer sidewall 333 of the cavity and the corresponding part of the speaker module 4. In this way, the elastic abutment structure 5 is positioned in the corresponding area between the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33 and the speaker module 4, resulting in a more precise snap-fit position and higher reliability during fixing. Furthermore, the relatively large areas of the inner sidewall 332 and the outer sidewall 333 of the first mounting cavity 33, including the relatively large area of the side corresponding to the speaker module 4, allow for better installation of one or more elastic abutment structures 5. This improves the connection reliability of the speaker module 4 within the first mounting cavity 33 while maintaining the structural reliability of both the cavity wall and the speaker module 4, thus enhancing the user experience. Additionally, the first direction X2 is parallel to the width direction X1 of the temple body, meaning that the opening 331 faces the first direction X2. The speaker module 4, fixed inside the temple body 32, can extend through the opening 331 along the width direction X1 of the temple body to the outside of the temple body 32. This decouples the width of the temple body 32 from the corresponding dimensions of the speaker module 4. While ensuring a large speaker module 4 with good sound effects, the width of the temple body 32 can be made narrower, thus making the temple body 32 thinner, reducing the weight of the temple 3, ensuring user comfort, and making it more compact and aesthetically pleasing.
[0162] It is understood that those skilled in the art may also provide the elastic abutment structure 5 only between the inner sidewall 332 of the cavity and the corresponding part of the speaker module 4. Alternatively, the elastic abutment structure 5 may be provided only between the outer sidewall 333 of the cavity and the corresponding part of the speaker module 4, and the embodiments of this application do not limit this.
[0163] Furthermore, the number of elastic abutment structures 5 provided between the speaker module 4 and the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33 is not limited, and there can be one or more. In one possible implementation, there are multiple elastic abutment structures 5, which are arranged at intervals on a plane perpendicular to the first direction X2. This can further improve the stability of the speaker module 4 fixed inside the temple body 32. It should be noted that the structure of the elastic abutment structures 5 at different positions can be the same or different, and this embodiment does not limit this.
[0164] In one possible implementation, such as Figure 4c and Figure 6 As shown, between the inner sidewall 332 and the outer sidewall 333 of the cavity and the corresponding parts of the speaker module 4, there are multiple elastic abutment structures 5 arranged at intervals along the length direction Y1 of the temple body. In this way, multiple elastic abutment structures 5 can be provided on one side of the speaker module 4, which can strengthen the elastic abutment strength between the speaker module 4 and the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33, and improve the connection reliability of the speaker module 4 in the first mounting cavity 33.
[0165] In one example, two spring tabs 511 are provided on the inner sidewall 332 of the cavity. Correspondingly, two grooves 521 are also provided on the outer surface of the speaker module 4 opposite to the inner sidewall 332, which elastically engage with the two spring tabs 511. Similarly, two spring tabs 511 are provided on the outer sidewall 333 of the cavity. Correspondingly, two grooves 521 are also provided on the outer surface of the speaker module 4 opposite to the outer sidewall 333, which elastically engage with the two spring tabs 511. This achieves elastic engagement between the speaker module 4 and the first mounting cavity 33. It should be noted that the number of spring tabs 511 on the inner sidewall 332 or the outer sidewall 333 can be one, three, four, or even more. This embodiment does not limit the number of spring tabs 511.
[0166] In other possible implementations, an elastic abutment structure 5 may be provided between the inner sidewall 332 of the cavity and the corresponding part of the speaker module 4, and / or an elastic abutment structure 5 may be provided between the outer sidewall 333 of the cavity and the corresponding part of the speaker module 4. This application embodiment does not limit this.
[0167] It should be noted that the spring-loaded portion 51 on the inner sidewall 332 and the spring-loaded portion 51 on the outer sidewall 333 of the cavity can be provided correspondingly in the first direction X2, or they can be not provided correspondingly in the first direction X2, that is, they can be staggered. This application embodiment does not limit this.
[0168] Furthermore, in one possible implementation, at least one elastic abutment structure 5 is provided between the corresponding portions of the speaker module 4 on both sides in the second direction Y2 and the cavity wall, where the second direction Y2 is perpendicular to the first direction X2. The second direction Y2 can be understood as any direction perpendicular to the first direction X2. This allows the speaker module 4 to be subjected to elastic compression force applied by the elastic abutment structure 5 on opposite sides, thereby improving the stability of the speaker module 4 fixed inside the temple body 32. Exemplarily, the front wall 335 or the rear wall 336 of the first mounting cavity 33 may also be provided with a spring-loaded portion 51, or both the front wall 335 and the rear wall 336 may be provided with spring-loaded portions 51; this embodiment does not limit this.
[0169] It should be noted that the spring-loaded part 51 can be located on the four walls of the first mounting cavity 33 (i.e., the front wall 335, the rear wall 336, the inner side wall 332, and the outer side wall 333), or it can be located on one or more walls. Those skilled in the art can set it reasonably according to actual needs, and the embodiments of this application do not limit it in this way.
[0170] The above mainly introduced the mechanical connection method of speaker module 4 in temple 3. The following text will introduce the audio function implementation of speaker 41 in speaker module 4 with reference to the attached drawings.
[0171] It should be noted that, to realize the audio function of the speaker 41, the processor 71 and the audio module 76 can be integrated into the speaker module 4, or they can be integrated into other mounting cavities of the temple body 32 (e.g., the second mounting cavity 34) or the frame 2, as long as the processor 71 can transmit audio signals to the speaker 41 through the audio module 76, and the speaker 41 vibrates and produces sound according to the received signals. To power the various electronic components, a battery module 72 and a charging management module 73 can be integrated into the speaker module 4, or they can be integrated into other mounting cavities of the temple body 32 (e.g., the second mounting cavity 34) or the frame 2, or simultaneously into both the speaker module 4 and other mounting cavities of the temple body 32. The structure of the speaker module 4 with integrated electronic components will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0172] Please see Figures 7a-7c , Figure 7a This is a schematic diagram showing the connection relationship of the electronic components within the speaker module of the mirror temple in an embodiment of this application. Figure 7b This is a schematic diagram showing the position of the battery module in the temple of a mirror according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 7c This is a schematic diagram of the charging interface in the temple of a mirror according to an embodiment of this application.
[0173] In one possible implementation, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7a As shown, the speaker module 4 also includes a first electronic unit 42, which includes a processor 71 and an audio module 76. The audio module 76 is electrically connected to both the processor 71 and the speaker 41. The processor 71 performs various functions and processes data. In other words, the speaker module 4 integrates the processor 71 and the audio module 76, enabling it to independently perform audio functions and meet the needs of users in applications such as playing music. Therefore, the speaker module 4 does not need to be electrically connected to the electronic units in other mounting cavities within the temple body 32 to achieve the audio function of the speaker 41. The specific structure of the speaker 41 will be explained later.
[0174] In one possible implementation, the first electronic unit 42 may further include a battery module 72 and a charging management module 73, with the charging management module 73 electrically connected to the processor 71 and the battery module 72, respectively. The first electronic unit 42 may also include a charging interface 731, through which the charging management module 73 can receive charging input from the wired charger 8, thereby enabling it to charge the battery module 72 in the speaker module 4 independently via the charging interface 731.
[0175] In one possible implementation, the first electronic unit 42 may further include a power management module 74, which connects the battery module 72, the charging management module 73, and the processor 71. The power management module 74 receives input from the battery module 72 and / or the charging management module 73, and supplies power to other electronic devices in the speaker module 4 to meet power requirements, such as powering the processor 71, speaker 41, microphone 75, and wireless communication module 77.
[0176] Furthermore, such as Figure 7a As shown, in one possible implementation, the first electronic unit 42 may further include a wireless communication module 77, which is communicatively connected to the processor 71. That is, the wireless communication module 77 enables the speaker module 4 to communicate with electronic units or other electronic devices (e.g., mobile phones) in other mounting cavities (e.g., the second mounting cavity) within the temple body 32, thus enabling better intelligent interaction between the speaker module 4 and the electronic units or other electronic devices in other mounting cavities.
[0177] Furthermore, in one possible implementation, such as Figure 7a As shown, the first electronic unit 42 may also include a microphone 75, which is electrically connected to the audio module 76. In this way, the speaker module 4 can also be configured to integrate the microphone 75 function, enriching the user experience of the speaker module 4.
[0178] In one possible implementation, the first electronic unit 42 may further include a memory. It should be noted that the first electronic unit 42 may also include a circuit board (not shown in the figure), and some electronic devices may be integrated into this circuit board. For example, the processor 71, audio module 76, wireless communication module 77, charging management module 73, power management module 74, etc., may be integrated into this circuit board. The mounting location of the circuit board is not limited. For example, the circuit board may be mounted inside the housing 43 of the speaker module 4, or it may be mounted in the housing of the speaker 41 (the housing of the speaker 41 includes, but is not limited to, components such as the speaker 41 mounting bracket 411, front cover 412, magnetic circuit system 415, etc., mentioned below).
[0179] Those skilled in the art will understand that the first electronic unit 42 in the speaker module 4 may be equipped with more or fewer electronic devices according to actual needs, and the embodiments of this application do not limit this.
[0180] Those skilled in the art will understand that the speaker module 4 may not integrate the aforementioned electronic devices. For example, the speaker module 4 may not integrate the processor 71 and audio module 76, but instead integrate the processor 71 and audio module 76 in other mounting cavities of the temple body 32 (e.g., the second mounting cavity 34). The audio module 76 is electrically connected to the speaker 41 of the speaker module 4 through a signal transmission structure (e.g., wiring, connector 6, etc.), thereby enabling the processor 71 to be electrically connected to the speaker 41 through the audio module 76. The speaker module 4 may also not integrate the wireless communication module 77. In this case, the electronic devices in the speaker module 4 communicate with the electronic devices in other mounting cavities of the temple body 32 or the frame 2 via wired connections. The speaker module 4 may also not integrate the microphone 75. In this case, the microphone 75 may be integrated in other mounting cavities of the temple body 32 (e.g., the second mounting cavity 34). The speaker module 4 may not integrate the battery module 72, charging management module 73, power management module 74, etc. In this case, the battery module 72, charging management module 73, power management module 74 can be integrated in other mounting cavities of the temple body 32 (e.g., the second mounting cavity 34).
[0181] The preceding text mainly introduced the first electronic unit 42 integrated in the speaker module 4. The following text, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, will describe the implementation of the electrical connection between the speaker module 4 and the second electronic unit 7 in other mounting cavities within the temple body 32. It should be noted that the first electronic unit 42 and the second electronic unit 7 can be simultaneously provided in the temple 3, or either the first electronic unit 42 or the second electronic unit 7 can be provided separately. This application embodiment does not impose any limitations on this.
[0182] Please see Figures 8a-10b , Figure 8aThis is a schematic diagram of the connector structure in the temple of a mirror according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 8b This is a partially enlarged structural diagram of the connector in the temple of a mirror according to an embodiment of this application.

Figure 9b This is an exemplary structural diagram illustrating the cooperation between the first electrical connection portion and the second electrical connection portion in the temple of a mirror according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 9c This is a schematic diagram of the connection structure between the first electrical connection portion and the second electrical connection portion in the temple of a mirror according to an embodiment of this application. Figure 10a and Figure 10b This is a schematic diagram of the connector insertion structure in the temple of the mirror according to an embodiment of this application.
[0183] like Figure 7b As shown, and in combination Figure 3 It is understood that, in one possible implementation, a second mounting cavity 34 is also formed inside the temple body 32, and the temple 3 further includes a second electronic unit 7 disposed within the second mounting cavity 34. It should be noted that the type of electronic device included in the second electronic unit 7 is not limited. For example, the second electronic unit 7 may include, but is not limited to, one or more of the following: battery module 72, charging management module 73, power management module 74, charging interface 731, processor 71, audio module 76, wireless communication module 77, and microphone 75.
[0184] It should be noted that the electrical connection method between the speaker module 4 and the second electronic unit 7 in other mounting cavities of the temple body 32 is not limited. For example... Figure 7b , Figure 8a and Figure 8b As shown, in one possible implementation, the temple 3 may further include a connector 6, which is fixedly connected to the interior of the temple body 32. The speaker module 4 is electrically connected to the second electronic unit 7 via the connector 6, so that the second electronic unit 7 transmits current signals and / or audio signals to the speaker module 4 via the connector 6.
[0185] For example, such as Figure 7b and Figure 7cAs shown, the second electronic unit 7 may include a battery module 72 located within the second mounting cavity 34 of the temple body 32. The battery module 72 can transmit current signals to the speaker module 4 via the connector 6, thus adding a charging function to the speaker module 4 and increasing its battery life. The second electronic unit 7 may include a charging management module 73, which can receive charging input from the wired charger 8 via the charging interface 731, thereby charging the battery module 72 of the second electronic unit 7 through the charging interface 731. Figure 3 , Figure 8a and Figure 8b As shown, the second electronic unit 7 may include a processor 71 and an audio module 76. The audio module 76 is electrically connected to the speaker 41 via a connector 6, thereby enabling the processor 71 to transmit audio signals to the speaker 41 of the speaker module 4 through the audio module 76. This connection has higher reliability and more stable signal transmission, which helps to improve the reliability of user operation. The type of connector 6 is not limited; for example, it can be a Pogo PIN connector, or a Type-C connector.
[0186] It should be noted that the speaker module 4 in the smart glasses 100 can independently realize intelligent interaction and audio interaction through the first electronic unit 42. At this time, some electronic devices in the first electronic unit 42 in the speaker module 4 and the second electronic unit 7 in the second mounting cavity 34 can be electrically connected or not. This application embodiment does not limit this.
[0187] In one possible implementation, such as Figure 8b and Figure 9a As shown, the speaker module 4 has at least one first electrical connection portion 44. The connector 6 includes a base 61 and at least one second electrical connection portion 62 disposed on the base 61. The base 61 is fixedly connected to the interior of the temple body 32, and the at least one second electrical connection portion 62 is electrically connected to the second electronic unit 7. The at least one second electrical connection portion 62 is disposed in a one-to-one correspondence with the at least one first electrical connection portion 44, and there is an elastic electrical connection between the second electrical connection portion 62 and the corresponding first electrical connection portion 44.
[0188] In one example, such as Figures 8a-8dAs shown, the connection is provided with multiple second electrical connection parts 62. Correspondingly, the speaker module 4 is also provided with multiple first electrical connection parts 44. When the speaker module 4 is inserted into the temple body 32, the first electrical connection parts 44 and the second electrical connection parts 62 are elastically connected one-to-one. In this way, the speaker module 4 can be electrically connected to the second electronic unit 7 in the temple body 32 through the first electrical connection parts 44 and the second electrical connection parts 62 of the connector 6 to achieve communication. At this time, the communication between the speaker module 4 and the second electronic unit 7 in the temple body 32 is more stable, and the reliability of the speaker module 4 is higher. Furthermore, the electrical connection between the first electrical connection parts 44 and the second electrical connection parts 62 can be used to achieve electrical connection between the speaker module 4 and the battery module 72 in other mounting cavities in the temple body 32. The battery module 72 transmits current signals to the speaker module 4 to power the speaker module 4, thereby enhancing its battery life.
[0189] Furthermore, the second electrical connection 62 is elastically connected to the corresponding first electrical connection 44, so that when the second electrical connection 62 and the corresponding first electrical connection 44 are squeezed along their axial direction, they have a certain floating displacement, which can eliminate the squeezing force generated, avoid hard damage to the second electrical connection 62 and the corresponding first electrical connection 44, and ensure the stability of the electrical contact between the second electrical connection 62 and the corresponding first electrical connection 44.
[0190] For example, such as Figure 9a As shown, the first electrical connection part 44 is electrically connected to the circuit board 782 in the speaker module 4, that is, the first electrical connection part 44 is integrated on the circuit board 782. At this time, some electronic components in the speaker module 4 are electrically connected to the first electrical connection part 44 through the circuit board 782, or other electronic components in the speaker module 4 are electrically connected to the first electrical connection part 44 through the wiring 781 and the circuit board 782. The second electrical connection part 62 is integrated on the circuit board 782 of the connector 6 and is electrically connected to some electronic components in the second electronic unit 7 in the temple body 32 through the wiring 781.
[0191] It should be noted that the first electrical connection part 44 and the first connection hole 45 mentioned below can be disposed on the housing 43 of the speaker module 4, or on the housing of the speaker 41 (e.g., on the mounting bracket 411). The structure of the wiring 781 is not limited; for example, it can be a flexible circuit board, cable, etc. The structure of the circuit board 782 is not limited; it can be a flexible circuit board, printed circuit board, etc.
[0192] It should be noted that the first electrical connection part 44 and the second electrical connection part 62 may be provided in a one-to-one correspondence or may not be provided in a corresponding manner. This application embodiment does not impose any restrictions on this.
[0193] Furthermore, the specific structure of the first electrical connection 44 and the second electrical connection 62 is not limited. In one possible manner, such as Figure 9a As shown, the first electrical connection portion 44 is a conductive sheet, and the second electrical connection portion 62 is a spring-loaded probe structure. Those skilled in the art will understand that the first electrical connection portion 44 and the second electrical connection portion 62 can also be other types of electrical connection terminals, as long as signal conduction is achieved through contact and signal disconnection is achieved through separation.
[0194] Those skilled in the art will understand that the structures of the plurality of first electrical connection portions 44 may be the same or different. For example, some of the plurality of first electrical connection portions 44 may be conductive sheets, while others may be spring-loaded probes. The structures of the plurality of second electrical connection portions 62 may be the same or different. For example, some of the plurality of second electrical connection portions 62 may be spring-loaded probes, while others may be conductive sheets. This does not limit the scope of protection of this application.
[0195] In one possible implementation, such as Figure 9b As shown, the spring-loaded probe (i.e., the second electrical connection 62) may include a needle tip 623, a needle tube 624, and a spring 625. The needle tip 623 is slidably disposed within the needle tube 624 along its axial direction. The spring 625 is located within the needle tube 624, with one end abutting against the bottom of the needle tube 624 and the other end abutting against the bottom end of the needle tip 623. The bottom end of the needle tip 623 has a beveled structure, which ensures that the needle tip 623 remains in contact with the inner wall of the needle tube 624 during operation, allowing current to primarily pass through the gold-plated needle tip 623 and needle tube 624, thus ensuring the stability and low impedance of the spring-loaded probe. The tip of the needle tip 623 is used to contact the conductive sheet (i.e., the first electrical connection 44). The bottom end of the needle tube 624 is fixed to and electrically connected to the circuit board 782. It is understandable that when the spring-loaded probe is in the working state (i.e., the electrical signal is on), the current can also be mainly conducted through the needle tip 623 to the needle tube 624 via the spring 625.
[0196] In other possible implementations, the speaker module 4 and the connector 6 can also be connected by a non-flexible electrical connection. For example, the connector 6 can be set to a Type-C interface so that the speaker module 4 can be directly plugged into the temple body 32 to achieve an electrical connection.
[0197] It should be noted that the specific structure of the base 61 in the connector 6 is not limited. The base 61 and the temple body 32 can be configured as an integral structure or as a separate structure. This application embodiment does not impose any restrictions on this. Furthermore, when the speaker module 4 is disposed in the first mounting cavity 33 and the temple body 32 has a retaining wall 327, the base 61 can be directly reused as at least part (partial or all) of the retaining wall 327, or it can be disposed independently of the retaining wall 327. This application embodiment does not impose any restrictions on this.
[0198] like Figure 8b , Figure 8d and Figure 9a As shown, in one possible implementation, the speaker module 4 has a first connection hole 45 corresponding to the first electrical connection portion 44, the first electrical connection portion 44 is accommodated in the first connection hole 45, and the second electrical connection portion 62 protrudes from the outer surface of the base 61 and contacts the first electrical connection portion 44 in the corresponding first connection hole 45. Figure 9c As shown, a damping member 451 is fitted between the outer wall of the second electrical connection portion 62 and the inner wall of the first connection hole 45, and the damping member 451 is elastically pressed against the second electrical connection portion 62. Specifically, the damping member 451 is elastically pressed between the inner wall of the second electrical connection portion 62 and the first connection hole 45. In this way, the damping member 451 can improve the reliability of the electrical connection between the first electrical connection portion 44 and the second electrical connection portion 62, and can also improve the feel of the speaker module 4 during the insertion and removal process, thereby improving the user experience.
[0199] In other possible implementations, the base 61 is provided with a second connection hole (not shown in the figure) corresponding to the second electrical connection portion 62. The second electrical connection portion 62 is accommodated in the second connection hole. The first electrical connection portion 44 protrudes from the outer surface of the speaker module 4 and contacts the second electrical connection portion 62 in the corresponding second connection hole. A damping member 451 is sleeved between the outer wall surface of the first electrical connection portion 44 and the inner wall surface of the second connection hole. The damping member 451 is elastically pressed against the first electrical connection portion 44. Specifically, the damping member 451 is elastically pressed between the inner wall surfaces of the first electrical connection portion 44 and the second connection hole.
[0200] It should be noted that the specific structure of the damping component 451 is not limited. In one possible implementation, the damping component 451 is set as a rubber ring. In this case, the first electrical connection 44 and the second electrical connection 62 are elastically compressed by the rubber ring, resulting in greater friction, thereby making the electrical connection between the first electrical connection 44 and the second electrical connection 62 more reliable. In other possible implementations, such as Figure 9cAs shown, the damping component 451 can also be configured as a spring 4511. The spring 4511 can be disposed in the first connection hole 45. In this case, the second electrical connection part 62 is configured as a stepped structure, including a first segment 621 and a second segment 622. During the insertion process of the speaker module 4, the spring 4511 in the first connection hole 45 can continuously squeeze and accommodate the second segment 622 of the second electrical connection part 62 until the first electrical connection part 44 and the second electrical connection part 62 are electrically connected.
[0201] It should be noted that, in order to make the speaker module 4 detachably and fixedly connected to the inside of the temple body 32, an elastic abutment structure 5 can be provided between the speaker module 4 and the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33, so that the speaker module 4 and the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33 are elastically engaged. Furthermore, a fixing structure (e.g., the plug-in structure 63 mentioned below) can be provided between the speaker module 4 and the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33. Alternatively, an elastic abutment structure 5 can be provided between the speaker module 4 and the cavity wall of the first mounting cavity 33, or a fixing structure can be provided between the speaker module 4 and the connector 6. This application embodiment does not limit this.
[0202] Furthermore, to enhance the reliability of the speaker module 4 fixedly connected to the temple body 32, one possible implementation is as follows: Figure 8c , Figure 8d , Figure 10a and Figure 10b As shown, a plug-in structure 63 is provided between the base 61 and the speaker module 4. The plug-in structure 63 includes a plug-in portion 631 disposed on the base 61 and a plugged-in portion 632 disposed on the speaker module 4. The plug-in portion 631 and the plugged-in portion 632 are plugged into and fixed to each other. At this time, the plug-in structure 63 can improve the connection reliability of the speaker module 4 (especially on the side where the first electrical connection portion 44 is located) in the temple body 32, ensuring the reliability of use for the user.
[0203] It should be noted that the specific form of the plug-in structure 63 is not limited. For example... Figure 8d and Figure 10a , Figure 10b As shown, in one possible implementation, the insertion part 631 and the insertion part 632 are elastically engaged. The insertion part 631 is a connecting post 6311 protruding from the outer surface of the base 61, and the insertion part 632 is a connecting hole 6321.
[0204] It should be noted that the specific structural form of the elastic snap-fit between the insertion part 631 and the inserted part 632 is not limited. In one possible implementation, such as... Figure 10a and Figure 10bAs shown, the connecting post 6311 may be provided with a receiving groove 6311A. A sliding block 6312 and a spring 6313 may be provided in the receiving groove 6311A. One end of the sliding block 6312 is fixedly connected to the spring 6313. The spring 6313 is fixed in the hole of the connecting post 6311. When the speaker module 4 is inserted, the connecting post 6311 gradually moves into the connecting hole 6321. The sliding block 6312 is continuously compressed into the receiving groove 6311A of the connecting post 6311. The spring 6313 can generate an elastic force opposite to the compression direction. At this time, the insertion part 631 is not easy to slide out of the connecting hole 6321, ensuring that the speaker module 4 is stably connected to the temple body 32 and providing the user with a good insertion and removal feel.
[0205] In other possible implementations, the insertion part 631 is a connection hole 6321, and the insertion part 632 is a connection post 6311 protruding from the outer surface of the speaker module 4. In this case, the connection post 6311 can be made of a material with elastic deformation capability, which can be gradually compressed into the connection hole 6321, and increase the friction force when the speaker module 4 slides out and falls, thereby ensuring that the speaker module 4 is stably connected to the temple body 32 and improving reliability. Alternatively, the insertion structure 63 can also be designed as a "self-locking pressing structure" that realizes the pressing function of a ballpoint pen, thereby realizing the stable insertion and removal of the speaker module 4 in the temple 3.
[0206] It should be noted that the number of plug-in structures 63 is not limited. In one possible implementation, there are two plug-in structures 63, located on opposite sides of all first electrical connections 44 and all second electrical connections 62, respectively. This arrangement of plug-in structures 63 on both sides of all first electrical connections 44 improves the reliability of fixing the speaker module 4 within the temple body 32 within a limited space. In one example, the plug-in structures 63 are spaced apart along the length of the temple 3. In this case, there is sufficient space along the length Y1 of the temple 3, allowing for a better balance between connection reliability and structural reliability. This is because there is sufficient space along the length of the temple 3. In other possible implementations, only one plug-in structure 63 may be provided.
[0207] It should be noted that the specific structure of the speaker 41 in the speaker module 4 is not limited. The following description will use an exemplary structure of the speaker 41 as an example to illustrate the speaker module 4 containing the speaker 41.
[0208] Please see Figure 11 , Figure 11 This is a schematic diagram of the speaker module in an embodiment of this application.
[0209] In one possible implementation, such as Figure 11As shown, the loudspeaker 41 may include a fixed bracket 411, a front cover 412, a vibrating element 413, a voice coil 414, and a magnetic circuit system 415. The voice coil 414 contains a coil. When current flows through the voice coil 414, the magnetic field generated by the voice coil 414 interacts with the magnetic field of the magnetic circuit system 415, allowing the voice coil 414 to move and causing the vibrating element 413 to reciprocate.
[0210] Those skilled in the art will understand that the specific structure of the vibrating element 413 is not limited, and in one possible implementation, such as Figure 11 As shown, the vibrating element 413 includes a diaphragm and a dome disposed on the diaphragm. The outer periphery of the diaphragm is clamped between the fixed bracket 411 and the front cover 412 by a folded ear structure. The diaphragm is fixedly connected to the voice coil 414.
[0211] It should be noted that the vibration direction of the vibrating element 413 is not limited to the correspondence between the directions of the temple body 32. In one possible implementation, such as... Figure 4b and Figure 11 As shown, the vibration direction of the vibrating element 413 can be parallel to the thickness direction Z1 of the temple body. In other possible implementations, the vibration direction of the vibrating element 413 can also be parallel to the width direction X1 of the temple body, and this embodiment does not limit this.
[0212] Furthermore, the specific structure of the magnetic circuit system 415 is not limited. In one possible implementation, such as... Figure 11 As shown, the magnetic circuit system 415 may include a central magnet 4151, a magnetic cup 4152, and a magnetic guide plate 4153. The magnetic cup 4152 is arranged around the outer periphery of the central magnet 4151 and forms an annular gap S1 between it and the central magnet 4151. The voice coil 414 is disposed between the central magnet 4151 and the magnetic cup 4152 in the gap S1. The magnetic guide plate 4153 is disposed on the side of the central magnet 4151 away from the magnetic cup 4152 and is fixedly connected to the central magnet 4151.
[0213] Furthermore, the connection method of the components within the speaker 41 is not limited. In one possible implementation, the vibrating element 413 and the magnetic circuit system 415 are both fixedly connected to the mounting bracket 411, which in turn is fixedly connected to the housing 43. That is, the speaker 41 is mounted on the housing 43 via the mounting bracket 411. It should be noted that the fixing method between the mounting bracket 411 and the housing 43 is not limited. In one example, the mounting bracket 411 and the housing 43 are an integral structure; in another example, such as... Figure 11 As shown, the two can also be separate structures, and then fixed together by means of bonding, welding or other methods. This application does not limit this.
[0214] It is understood that the front cover 412 in the speaker 41 can also be fixedly connected to the outer shell 43, thereby enhancing the reliability of the fixed bracket 411 jointly clamping the vibrating element 413. In this case, the front cover 412 and the outer shell 43 can be an integral structure or a separate structure. This application embodiment does not limit this.
[0215] In one possible implementation, the speaker module 4 may also include a sound outlet 46 to transmit the sound waves generated by the vibrating element 413 in the speaker 41 to the external space of the speaker module 4.
[0216] It should be noted that when a housing 43 is provided in the speaker module 4, the outer surface of the housing 43 may constitute the entire outer surface of the speaker module 4, or the outer surface of the housing 43 may constitute a part of the outer surface of the speaker module 4, and a part of the outer surface of the housing of the speaker 41 may constitute another part of the outer surface of the speaker module 4. For example, the outer surface of the magnetic cup 4152 in the magnetic circuit system 415 of the speaker 41 is exposed in the external space of the speaker module 4, constituting another part of the outer surface of the speaker module 4. This application embodiment does not limit this.
[0217] Those skilled in the art will understand that the specific structure of the speaker 41 in the speaker module 4 is not limited, and may include more or fewer components as described in the above example to achieve audio transmission function.
