Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of headphone component technology, and in particular to a charging case and headphone component. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, TWS (True Wireless Stereo) products primarily consist of independent left and right earbuds and a matching charging case. The charging case not only stores the earbuds but also charges them. Its structural design directly impacts the user experience. To improve the stability and positioning accuracy of the earbuds within the charging case, manufacturers typically embed permanent magnets in non-acoustic cavity areas of the earbuds (such as the stem or near the contact points) and incorporate magnetic structures in corresponding locations within the charging case. This magnetic attraction enables accurate earbud positioning. Furthermore, the internal design of the charging case is highly adapted to the shape of the earbuds to limit their displacement within the case.

[0003] However, some existing charging cases rely on users manually prying out the earbuds, which is inconvenient in small spaces or when operating with one hand. Utility Model Content

[0004] Based on this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a charging case and earphone assembly to solve the problems in the background art mentioned above. A charging case and earphone assembly includes a case body, a case cover that is fitted onto the case body via a rotating shaft, and a lifting assembly disposed between the case body and the case cover. The lifting assembly includes an elastic member disposed on the side of the case body near the case cover, a pressing member disposed on the side of the case cover near the case body and corresponding to the elastic member, a first limiting member disposed on the edge of the case body away from the rotating shaft, and a second limiting member disposed on the side of the case cover away from the rotating shaft. When the case cover is closed, the first and second limiting members cooperate and lock together. The pressing member compresses the elastic member to generate energy-storing deformation. When the case cover is opened, the restoring force of the elastic member pushes the electronic device built into the case body upwards.

[0005] Compared to existing technologies, the advantages of this application are as follows: During use, the electronic device to be charged is first placed into the receiving cavity of the compartment. Then, the compartment cover is closed, causing the cover to press against the elastic element, which then retracts. At this point, the elastic element shortens and loses its lifting effect on the electronic device. Simultaneously, the first and second limiting elements lock together, securing the cover stably to the compartment. When the electronic device needs to be removed, the operator opens the cover, causing the cover to move away from the elastic element. Under the action of restoring force, the elastic element moves upward, lifting the electronic device from the receiving cavity, avoiding the hassle of manually prying the device out and significantly improving the user experience. This structure, through the cooperative design of the elastic element and the pressing element in the lifting assembly, utilizes the restoring force released by the elastic element after the cover is unlocked to automatically eject the electronic device, greatly improving operational convenience. Furthermore, the locking structure between the first and second limiting elements ensures a tight fit when the cover is closed, preventing accidental opening due to external force and ensuring the stability of the elastic element under compression.

[0006] Furthermore, the top of the chamber is provided with a receiving cavity for accommodating the electronic device, the elastic member is located at the bottom of the receiving cavity, the electronic device has a through hole, and the extrusion member passes through the through hole and contacts the elastic member.

[0007] Furthermore, a processing groove is provided on one side of the receiving cavity of the chamber, and one side opening of the processing groove is connected to the outside. A filling block extends from the inner side of the chamber cover, and the filling block is adapted to the shape of the processing groove.

[0008] Furthermore, the bottom surface of the processing tank is flush with the lowest bottom surface of the receiving cavity.

[0009] Furthermore, a limiting groove is provided on the inner top of the compartment cover, and the limiting groove is adapted to the top shape of the electronic device.

[0010] Furthermore, the top edge of the compartment body is provided with an annular placement groove, and the side of the compartment cover is embedded in the annular placement groove.

[0011] Furthermore, the first limiting member is a magnetic attractor, and the second limiting member is a permanent magnet that is attracted to the magnetic attractor.

[0012] This utility model also provides an earphone assembly, including the charging case described above. Attached Figure Description

[0020] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention.

[0021] Please see Figures 1 to 2The image shows a charging compartment according to an embodiment of the present invention, including a compartment body 10, a compartment cover 20 that is fitted onto the compartment body 10 via a rotating shaft 11, and a lifting assembly 30 disposed between the compartment body 10 and the compartment cover 20. The lifting assembly 30 includes an elastic member 31 disposed on the side of the compartment body 10 near the compartment cover 20, a pressing member 32 disposed on the side of the compartment cover 20 near the compartment body 10 and corresponding to the elastic member 31, a first limiting member 33 disposed on the edge of the compartment body 10 away from the rotating shaft 11, and a second limiting member 34 disposed on the side of the compartment cover 20 away from the rotating shaft 11. When the compartment cover 20 is closed, the first limiting member 33 and the second limiting member 34 cooperate to lock each other, and the pressing member 32 compresses the elastic member 31 to generate energy storage deformation. When the compartment cover 20 is opened, the restoring force of the elastic member 31 pushes the built-in electronic device 13 of the compartment body 10 to lift up.

[0022] It is worth noting that during use, the electronic device 13 (wireless earphone) to be charged is first placed into the receiving cavity 12 of the housing 10. Then, the lid 20 is closed on the housing 10. The lid 20 causes the pressing member 32 to press against the elastic member 31, causing the elastic member 31 to retract. At this point, the elastic member 31 shortens and loses its supporting effect on the electronic device 13. Simultaneously, the first limiting member 33 and the second limiting member 34 lock together, stably fixing the lid 20 to the housing 10. When it is necessary to remove the electronic device 13, the operator opens the lid 20. The lid 20 causes the pressing member 32 to move away from the elastic member 31. Under the action of the restoring force, the elastic member 31 moves upward, thereby lifting the electronic device 13 out of the receiving cavity 12. This avoids the hassle of manually prying the device out, significantly improving the user experience. This structure, through the cooperative design of the elastic element 31 and the pressing element 32 in the lifting assembly 30, utilizes the restoring force released by the energy stored in the elastic element 31 after the cover 20 is unlocked to automatically eject the electronic device 13, greatly improving the convenience of operation. Simultaneously, the locking structure between the first limiting element 33 and the second limiting element 34 ensures that the cover 20 fits tightly in the closed state, preventing accidental opening due to external force and guaranteeing the stability of the elastic element 31 under compression.

[0023] Please see Figures 3 to 4Furthermore, the top of the compartment 10 is provided with a receiving cavity 12 for placing the electronic device 13 to be charged, and an elastic element 31 is disposed at the bottom of the receiving cavity 12. The electronic device 13 has a through hole 14, through which a pressing element 32 passes and contacts the elastic element 31. It is worth noting that during the closing process of the compartment cover 20, the pressing element 32 enters the receiving cavity 12 through the through hole 14 and presses the elastic element 31, causing the elastic element 31 to retract. By having the pressing element 32 pass through the through hole 14 on the electronic device 13, the electronic device 13 can be stably confined within the receiving cavity 12 while compressing the elastic element 31, preventing displacement and thus improving the overall structural stability and reliability.

[0024] Furthermore, a processing groove 15 is provided on one side of the receiving cavity 12 of the compartment 10. One side opening of the processing groove 15 communicates with the outside for easy cleaning. Specifically, a filling block 22 that matches the shape of the processing groove 15 extends from the inner side of the compartment cover 20. When the compartment cover 20 is closed, the filling block 22 is embedded in the processing groove 15, which not only seals the gap between the compartment 10 and the compartment cover 20, reducing the risk of dust or liquid entering the receiving cavity 12, but also facilitates the user to clean the inside of the receiving cavity 12 through the processing groove 15.

[0025] Understandably, existing charging chambers 10 typically have deep accommodating slots for powering electronic devices 13, making them difficult to clean once dust or other small debris enters the bottom. Therefore, this design incorporates a processing slot 15 on one side of the accommodating cavity 12, allowing users to more easily maintain and clean the interior of the cavity 12, ensuring a clean charging environment, extending device lifespan, and maintaining good charging efficiency. This design cleverly solves the problem of cleaning deep accommodating slots without compromising the overall aesthetics and sealing performance of the chamber 10.

[0026] Furthermore, to improve the cleanliness of the cleaning, the bottom surface of the treatment tank 15 is flush with the lowest bottom surface of the receiving cavity 12.

[0027] Furthermore, a limiting groove 21 is provided on the inner top of the cover 20, and the limiting groove 21 is adapted to the top shape of the electronic device 13. The design of the limiting groove 21 allows the electronic device 13 to be more stably limited within the receiving cavity 12.

[0028] Furthermore, in order to improve the sealing between the compartment body 10 and the compartment cover 20, the top edge of the compartment body 10 is provided with an annular placement groove 16, and the side of the compartment cover 20 is embedded in the annular placement groove.

[0029] In this embodiment, the first limiting member 33 is a magnetic attractor, and the second limiting member 34 is a permanent magnet attracted to the magnetic attractor. The magnetic limiting assembly ensures strong attraction while avoiding the wear and tear of mechanical latches, thus extending its service life. The elastic member 31 can be a compression spring, a sheet spring, or a silicone elastomer.

[0030] In summary, during use, the charging compartment of the above embodiments of this utility model first places the electronic device 13 to be charged into the receiving cavity 12 of the compartment body 10. Then, the compartment cover 20 is closed onto the compartment body 10. The compartment cover 20 will cause the pressing member 32 to press against the elastic member 31, causing the elastic member 31 to retract. At this time, the elastic member 31 becomes shorter and loses its pushing effect on the electronic device 13. Simultaneously, the first limiting member 33 and the second limiting member 34 lock together, so that the compartment cover 20 is stably fixed on the compartment body 10.

[0031] When it is necessary to remove the electronic device 13, the operator opens the compartment cover 20. The compartment cover 20 causes the pressing member 32 to move away from the elastic member 31. Under the action of the restoring force, the elastic member 31 moves upward, thereby lifting the electronic device 13 out of the receiving cavity 12, avoiding the trouble of manually prying out the device and significantly improving the user experience.

[0032] This structure, through the cooperative design of the elastic element 31 and the pressing element 32 in the lifting assembly 30, utilizes the restoring force released by the energy stored in the elastic element 31 after the cover 20 is unlocked to automatically eject the electronic device 13, greatly improving the convenience of operation. Simultaneously, the locking structure between the first limiting element 33 and the second limiting element 34 ensures that the cover 20 fits tightly in the closed state, preventing accidental opening due to external force and guaranteeing the stability of the elastic element 31 under compression.
