With technological advancements, the functions of smart glasses are becoming increasingly diverse, leading to their wider application in daily life and work.
[0003] However, many smart glasses in the current technology have limitations in sound transmission methods. Specifically, the audio modules of these devices can usually only transmit sound to the user in a single way (such as through a built-in speaker or vibration), lacking diverse sound transmission modes. Utility Model Content
[0004] This application provides a smart glasses solution designed to offer diverse sound transmission modes.

[0007] A bone conduction module is rotatably mounted on the temple of the endoscope, and the bone conduction module can rotate toward or away from the conduction area.

[0047] Smart glasses are wearable electronic devices with a wide range of functions, including but not limited to existing AI glasses, camera glasses, XR (augmented reality) glasses, audio glasses, and Bluetooth glasses. With technological advancements, the functions of smart glasses are becoming increasingly diverse, leading to their wider application in daily life and work.
[0048] However, many smart glasses in the current technology have limitations in sound transmission methods. Specifically, the audio modules of these devices can usually only transmit sound to the user in a single way (such as through a built-in speaker or vibration), lacking diverse sound transmission modes.
[0049] Please see Figures 1 to 5 In response, some embodiments of this application provide a smart glasses 100, which includes: temples 10 and a bone conduction module 20. The temples 10 are provided with a conduction area 11. The bone conduction module 20 is rotatably mounted on the temples 10, and the bone conduction module 20 can rotate toward or away from the conduction area 11. During the rotation stroke of the bone conduction module 20, it has a first position located within the conduction area 11 and a second position located outside the conduction area 11. When the bone conduction module 20 is located in the first position, the bone conduction module 20 is at least partially in contact with the temples 10 to transmit sound to the user through the temples 10. When the bone conduction module 20 is located in the second position, it is used to contact the user's head 1.
[0050] It should be noted that the specific implementation of the smart glasses 100 is not limited; it can be AI glasses, camera glasses, XR (extended reality) glasses, audio glasses, Bluetooth glasses, etc., and is not limited here. The specific method by which the bone conduction module 20 is rotatably mounted on the temple 10 is not limited; it can be mounted using a pivot, or connected by a hinge, etc., and is not limited here. When the bone conduction module 20 is in the second position, it is used to contact the user's head 1. The position of contact between the second position and the user's head 1 is not limited; it can be directly contacted with the user's ear, or the jaw, or the area above the ear, or the user's face, etc., and is not limited here.
[0051] The second position can be a single fixed position or multiple positions; no limitation is made here.
[0052] In the scheme of this embodiment, when the bone conduction module 20 is located at the first position, the bone conduction module 20 is at least partially attached to the temple 10, so that sound can be transmitted to the user through the temple 10, realizing the first sound transmission mode and wearing method. When the bone conduction module 20 is located at the second position, the bone conduction module 20 is attached to the user's head 1, directly vibrating the skull. The vibration passes through the skull, bypasses the outer ear and middle ear (eardrum, ossicles), and is directly transmitted to the inner ear (cochlea), stimulating the auditory nerve to produce hearing, thereby realizing the second sound transmission mode and wearing method, providing a variety of sound transmission modes.
[0053] Specifically, the form of the conduction area 11 is not limited and can be any area on the temple 10, as long as the bone conduction module 20 can be attached.
[0054] In some embodiments, the portion of the temple 10 located in the conductive region 11 is recessed inward to form a receiving groove.
[0055] In the scheme of this embodiment, by providing the receiving groove on the temple 10, when the bone conduction module 20 is located at the first position, the bone conduction module 20 is at least partially located in the receiving groove, so that the receiving groove can play a certain positioning role for the bone conduction module 20, positioning the bone conduction module 20 at least partially in the receiving groove, so that its sound transmission to the temple 10 is more stable.
[0056] Of course, in other embodiments, magnetic suction parts can be provided on the conduction area 11 and the bone conduction module 20 respectively, so that the bone conduction module 20 can be magnetically positioned when it is located in the conduction area 11. Of course, other positioning methods can also be used, etc., which are not limited here.
[0057] The fit between the bone conduction module 20 and the receiving groove is not limited. It can be a clearance fit, in which the bone conduction module 20 can vibrate better, or an interference fit, etc., which are not limited here.
[0058] In some embodiments, when the bone conduction module 20 is located at the first position, the bone conduction module 20 is configured to be interference-fitted with the receiving groove.
[0059] In this embodiment, the bone conduction module 20 and the receiving groove are configured with an interference fit. On the one hand, this allows the vibration generated by the bone conduction module 20 to be better transmitted to the temple 10. On the other hand, the interference fit means that the size of the bone conduction module 20 is slightly larger than the size of the receiving groove. When the bone conduction module 20 is placed in the receiving groove, it can be squeezed by the groove wall, thereby confining it within the receiving groove and maintaining the state of transmitting sound through the temple 10.
[0060] It should be noted that when the bone conduction module 20 is located at the first position, the bone conduction module 20 is at least partially attached to the temple 10. This can be either the entire bone conduction module 20 being attached to the temple 10 or only partially attached to the temple 10, and is not limited here.
[0061] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the bone conduction module 20 includes a connector 21 and a bone conduction horn 22. One end of the connector 21 is rotatably mounted on the temple 10. The bone conduction horn 22 is disposed at the free end of the connector 21. When the bone conduction module 20 is located in the first position, the bone conduction horn 22 is at least partially attached to the temple 10.
[0062] It should be noted that the free end of the connector 21 refers to the rotatable portion of the connector 21. By placing the bone conduction horn 22 at the free end of the connector 21, the bone conduction horn 22 can rotate together with the connector 21 when it rotates. When the bone conduction module 20 is in the first position, the connector 21 may or may not be attached to the temple 10; this is not limited here.
[0063] In the corresponding embodiment, by rotatably mounting one end of the connector 21 to the temple 10, the free end of the connector 21 can swing relative to the temple 10. When the free end of the connector 21 swings, the bone conduction speaker 22 can rotate together, thereby adjusting the position of the bone conduction speaker 22. When the bone conduction module 20 is located at the first position, the bone conduction speaker 22 is at least partially in contact with the temple 10, thereby transmitting sound to the temple 10 through the bone conduction speaker 22.
[0064] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the connector 21 is detachably mounted on the temple 10. By making the connector 21 detachable, multiple connectors 21 of different lengths can be set and replaced, allowing users to achieve different modes of wearing.
[0065] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5 By setting connectors 21 of different lengths, the bone conduction speaker 22 can be placed in different positions on the user's head and worn in different postures.
[0066] The specific implementation of the bone conduction speaker 22 is not limited. It may include only the speaker body 221, or it may include the speaker body 221 and a box 222 sleeved on the outside of the speaker body 221, etc. There is no limitation here. In some embodiments, the bone conduction speaker 22 includes the speaker body 221 and the box 222 sleeved on the outside of the speaker body 221, and the box 222 is snapped into the connector 21.
[0067] The specific implementation of the connector 21 is not limited; it can be made of plastic parts, elastic parts 34, etc., and is not limited here.
[0068] In some embodiments, the connector 21 includes an elastic sheet 211 and a silicone sleeve 212, wherein the elastic sheet 211 is deformably disposed, and the silicone sleeve 212 is sleeved on the outside of the elastic sheet 211.
[0069] In this embodiment, by providing the elastic sheet 211, which has a certain elastic force, it will generate a rebound force on the face when straightened under force. Therefore, it can elastically press the face, allowing the bone conduction speaker 22 to fit better against the face. Furthermore, by providing the silicone sleeve 212, which is soft and skin-friendly, the user's wearing experience is improved.
[0070] Please refer to this carefully. Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the smart glasses 100 further includes a rotating mounting structure 30, through which the connector 21 is mounted to the temple 10. The rotating mounting structure 30 includes a rotating mounting part 31, a pivot stud 32, and a pivot nut 33. The rotating mounting part 31 is fixedly mounted to the temple 10, and the rotating mounting part 31 forms a pivot hole 311. One end of the pivot stud 32 is fixedly mounted to one end of the connector 21, and the other end is rotatably mounted to the pivot hole 311, and at least partially extends to the side of the rotating mounting part 31 away from the connector 21. The pivot nut 33 is sleeved on the other end of the pivot stud 32.
[0071] It should be noted that the specific implementation of the rotating mounting part 31 is not limited. It can be a part of the temple 10, integrally formed with the temple 10, or it can be a separate rotating steel plate. The rotating steel plate is fixedly installed on the temple 10 to form the rotating mounting part 31, etc. There is no limitation here. The rotating shaft stud 32 can be set separately or integrally formed with the connecting member 21. There is no limitation here.
[0072] In the scheme of this embodiment, by setting the rotating mounting structure 30, during the actual assembly process, the rotating shaft stud 32 can be fixedly installed on one end of the connector 21 first, and then the stud part of the rotating shaft stud 32 can be inserted into the rotating shaft hole 311. By sleeved with the rotating shaft nut 33, the rotating shaft nut 33 and the stud head of the rotating shaft stud 32 can jointly clamp the rotating mounting part 31 to realize the rotating mounting of the connector 21. With this setting, the installation process is simple and the rotational stability is high.
[0073] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the rotating mounting structure 30 further includes an elastic element 34, which is sleeved on the rotating shaft stud 32 and located between the rotating shaft nut 33 and the rotating mounting portion 31.
[0074] In the scheme of this embodiment, by setting the elastic element 34, the deformation of the elastic element 34 can be adjusted by adjusting the position of the rotating shaft nut 33 during actual use, thereby ultimately achieving the adjustment of the torque of the connecting member 21.
[0075] Specifically, when the distance between the pivot nut 33 and the pivot mounting part changes, the deformation of the corresponding elastic element 34 also changes accordingly. The smaller the distance between the pivot nut 33 and the pivot mounting part, the larger the deformation of the elastic element 34, and the greater the pressure of the elastic element 34 on the pivot mounting part. Correspondingly, a larger force is needed to drive the connector 21 to rotate. Of course, when the distance between the pivot nut 33 and the pivot mounting part is larger, the smaller the deformation of the elastic element 34, and the smaller the pressure of the elastic element 34 on the pivot mounting part. Correspondingly, a smaller force is needed to drive the connector 21 to rotate. Thus, by setting the elastic element 34 to cooperate with the pivot nut 33, the magnitude of the torque can be adjusted.
[0076] The specific implementation of the elastic element 34 is not limited; it can be a spring, a silicone component, etc., and is not limited here. In some embodiments, the elastic element 34 includes an arched elastic pad. Corresponding to the solution in this embodiment, by setting the elastic element 34 as an arched elastic pad, the arched design of the elastic pad allows the pad to distribute the load evenly on the contact surface when compressed. This characteristic is particularly suitable for applications requiring the bearing of large pressure or uneven loads, and the deformation and pressure can be adjusted by adjusting its height.
[0077] Please refer to general information. Figure 8 and Figure 9 In order to suspend the bone conduction module 20 at certain angles, in some embodiments, the rotating mounting structure 30 further includes a nut washer 35, which is sleeved on the pivot stud 32 and abuts against the pivot nut 33; the outer periphery of the nut washer 35 is provided with a plurality of limiting notches 351 at intervals, and the temple 10 is fixedly provided with a pivot spring 36, which is used to at least partially extend into the limiting notches 351 to suspend the bone conduction module 20.
[0078] In this embodiment, by setting the nut washer 35, the pressure applied by the pivot nut 33 can be made more uniform. In addition, a number of limiting notches 351 are provided at intervals on the outer periphery of the nut washer 35. When the nut washer 35 rotates with the connector 21, when it rotates to certain angles, the limiting notches 351 will cooperate with the pivot spring 36. The pivot spring 36 extends at least partially into the limiting notches 351, thereby suspending the bone conduction module 20 at that angle. When the user needs to continue rotating, after applying a large torque to the connector 21, the nut washer 35 can continue to rotate, allowing the pivot spring 36 to disengage from the limiting notches 351.
[0079] Specifically, the number of the limiting notches 351 is not limited, and can be 1, 2, 3, etc., which is not limited here. The multiple limiting notches 351 can be evenly distributed or non-uniformly distributed, which is not limited here. In some embodiments, multiple limiting notches 351 are provided. By providing multiple limiting notches 351, the bone conduction module 20 can achieve multiple levels of suspension.
[0080] In order to power the bone conduction speaker 22, in some embodiments, the pivot stud 32 is hollow to form a wire passage 321. The bone conduction module 20 also includes a connecting wire 23, which passes through the wire passage 321 and is connected to the bone conduction speaker 22.
[0081] In the scheme of this embodiment, since the connecting wire 23 passes through the wire passage 321, the connecting wire 23 is located in the part of the wire passage 321 during the rotation of the shaft and will not be displaced, thereby improving the stability of the electrical connection.
[0082] The smart glasses provided in the embodiments of this application have been described in detail above. Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of this application. The description of the above embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core ideas of this application. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the ideas of this application. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this application.
