Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of wearable device technology, and more particularly to a pair of glasses. Background Technology
[0002] With the upgrading of consumer demand and the continuous development of technology, glasses are gradually moving towards intelligence, such as integrating sound modules into glasses to provide auditory experience, and integrating camera devices into glasses to provide visual assistance.
[0003] Currently, the sound module of glasses is usually fixed on the temple. When the user wears them, the sound module is usually located above the ear, which is a certain distance away from the ear. This results in a lower volume of sound transmitted to the ear. In order to hear the sound clearly, the volume needs to be turned up, which in turn leads to a decrease in the privacy of the sound transmission. Utility Model Content
[0004] This application discloses a pair of glasses that can increase the volume of sound transmitted to the human ear, while also improving the privacy of sound transmission.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, embodiments of this application disclose a pair of eyeglasses, including:
[0006] The main body of the glasses;
[0007] Two temples, the two temples being connected to the main body of the glasses;
[0008] A sound module is rotatably connected to the temple of the glasses. The sound module has a first state and a second state. In the first state, the sound module is stacked on the temple. In the second state, the sound module is unfolded relative to the temple and rotated relative to the temple to a preset angle so that the sound outlet of the sound module faces the ear when the glasses are worn. The preset angle is greater than 90°.
[0009] The glasses provided in this application connect a sound module to the temple of the glasses in a rotating manner. In the first state, the sound module is stacked on the temple, and in the second state, it can be unfolded relative to the temple and rotated to a preset angle. This allows the sound outlet of the sound module to face the ear when the glasses are worn, thereby shortening the distance between the sound module and the ear and increasing the volume of sound transmitted to the ear. This allows the user to hear the sound transmitted by the sound module clearly without having to turn up the volume, thus improving the privacy of sound transmission. Meanwhile, since the rotation angle of the sound module relative to the temple is greater than 90° in the second state, the sound module can be rotated to a tilt angle of more than 90°, causing the sound module to tilt towards the temple in the second state. That is, the distance from the sound outlet of the sound module to the temple in the height direction of the temple is shortened. Since the human ear canal is usually located on the front of the auricle and tilted slightly backward, when the temple is placed on the ear, a tilt angle of more than 90° can make the sound module closer to the ear and fit the periauricular area more ergonomically, minimizing the distance of sound transmission to the ear and thus making the sound transmission to the ear more effective.
[0010] Furthermore, by limiting the angle of rotation of the sound module relative to the temple to greater than 90° in the second state, the sound module can rotate to a larger range of angles. This allows the sound module to be closer to the ear, ensuring that the sound is transmitted to the ear more accurately and resulting in better sound quality. At the same time, the large range of rotation can also adapt to different head sizes (such as children or adults) and wearing habits (such as the height of the glasses), thereby improving the versatility of the glasses.
[0011] As an optional implementation, the temple is provided with an axle hole, and the eyeglasses also include a pivot assembly, which connects the sound module and the temple so that the sound module can rotate relative to the temple;
[0012] The rotating shaft assembly includes:
[0013] A shaft body, one end of which is fixedly connected to the sound module, and the other end of which passes through the shaft hole to allow the shaft body to be rotatably connected to the temple of the mirror. The shaft body is provided with a wire hole.
[0014] A damping element is sleeved on the outer periphery of the shaft, and the damping element is used to provide a damping force to keep the sound module in its current position;
[0015] The glasses also include:
[0016] A circuit board, wherein the circuit board is disposed on the temple of the mirror;
[0017] A connecting wire, one end of which is connected to the circuit board, and the other end of which passes through the wire hole and is electrically connected to the sound module.
[0018] By designing rotating components including shafts and damping components, the damping components provide damping force for the rotation of the shaft, allowing the sound module to be held at any rotation angle. This enables users to suspend the sound module at any position between the first and second states as needed, making the sound module more versatile and adaptable.
[0019] Meanwhile, wiring holes are provided on the shaft for connecting wires to pass through. Under the premise of realizing the electrical connection between the sound module and the circuit board, the circuit board can be placed on the temple, which simplifies the structural design of the sound module without excessively occupying the space on the sound module, and is conducive to realizing the miniaturization design of the sound module.
[0020] As an optional implementation, the temple is provided with a wiring groove on the side facing the shaft. The wiring groove extends along the extension direction of the temple and communicates with the wire through hole. The connecting wire is routed through the wire through hole to the wiring groove.
[0021] The shaft includes:
[0022] A first shaft portion, one end of which is fixedly connected to the sound module, and at least part of which is located in the shaft hole;
[0023] A second shaft portion is connected to the other end of the first shaft portion, and the diameter of the second shaft portion is larger than the diameter of the portion of the first shaft portion located in the shaft hole;
[0024] The temple has an inner wall surface for surrounding the shaft hole, and a groove is provided on the inner wall surface. The groove surrounds the shaft hole. The second shaft portion is connected to the groove to limit the position of the shaft body along the axial direction of the shaft hole. The damping element is sleeved on the outer periphery of the first shaft portion and located between the first shaft portion and the shaft hole.
[0025] By setting a cable routing groove and a cable passage hole on the side of the temple facing the axis, a guiding channel is provided for the connecting cable, so that the connecting cable is neatly arranged inside the temple, reducing assembly difficulty and maintenance costs.
[0026] By dividing the shaft into a first shaft part and a second shaft part, and setting the diameter of the second shaft part to be larger than the diameter of the portion of the first shaft part located in the shaft hole, a protrusion is formed at the end of the shaft near the temple. This protrusion, in conjunction with the groove on the inner wall of the shaft hole, restricts the axial movement of the shaft, preventing the sound module from loosening or falling off during rotation, and ensuring the axial stability of the shaft.
[0027] Because the temple face has a cable routing groove, the second shaft portion will cover the top of the cable routing groove after the shaft body is assembled. If the damping element is fitted around the outer periphery of the second shaft portion, the portion of the damping element corresponding to the cable routing groove will be suspended. When the damping element is made of rubber, its soft nature and insufficient bottom support may cause the damping element to deform due to uneven force during shaft rotation, thus failing to provide effective damping force. Based on this, this application fits the damping element around the outer periphery of the first shaft portion, so that the end face of the damping element contacts the second shaft portion. The second shaft portion can provide effective support for the damping element, ensuring that the damping element is not easily deformed during shaft rotation, thereby providing effective damping force. This not only does not affect shaft rotation but also allows the shaft to be suspended at any angle.
[0028] As an optional implementation, the first shaft portion includes:
[0029] A first sub-part, one end of which is connected to the second shaft part, the first sub-part being located in the shaft hole, and the diameter of the second shaft part being larger than the diameter of the first sub-part;
[0030] The second sub-part is connected to the other end of the first sub-part, and the diameter of the second sub-part is larger than the diameter of the first sub-part.
[0031] The sound module is provided with a first mounting groove, the second sub-part is installed in the first mounting groove, the damping element is sleeved on the outer periphery of the first sub-part and along the axial direction of the shaft hole, and the damping element is located between the second shaft part and the second sub-part.
[0032] Since the diameter of the second sub-section is larger than that of the first sub-section, and the second sub-section is the part connected to the sound module, this provides a larger mounting surface, making the connection between the shaft and the sound module more stable, thereby making the rotation of the sound module relative to the temple more reliable.
[0033] Meanwhile, since the diameter of the second shaft is also larger than that of the first sub-shaft, the shaft body is roughly I-shaped. The first sub-shaft located in the middle serves as the carrier for the damping element, which is constrained between the second shaft and the second sub-shaft along the first axial direction. The structure of the shaft body itself can limit the position of the damping element, so that both ends of the damping element contact a flat and continuous surface, preventing the damping element from deforming or shifting along the shaft hole, ensuring constant damping force, and making the rotation of the sound module smoother.
[0034] As an optional implementation, the temple includes:
[0035] The temple body is connected to the eyeglass body. In the first state, the sound module is stacked on the temple body. In the second state, the sound module is unfolded relative to the temple body. The temple body is provided with a second mounting groove.
[0036] A fastener is provided in the second mounting groove to fix it to the temple body, and the fastener has the shaft hole and the groove.
[0037] By setting the fasteners for connection with the shaft independently, it is easier to form grooves on individual fasteners, reducing the difficulty of processing. On the other hand, if the fastener is damaged, only the fastener needs to be replaced, instead of replacing the entire temple, which helps to reduce the repair cost when the glasses are damaged.
[0038] As an optional implementation, the sound module has a first end and a second end opposite to each other. In the first state, the first end is the end away from the main body of the glasses, and the second end is the end close to the main body of the glasses. The first end is rotatably connected to the temple so that when the glasses are worn, the second end rotates toward the ear.
[0039] The temple is provided with a receiving groove with a first opening. In the wearing state, the first opening is oriented downward along the height direction of the temple. In the first state, the sound module is housed in the receiving groove. In the second state, the sound module is unfolded relative to the temple so that the second end of the sound module rotates out of the receiving groove from the first opening.
[0040] The temple has a first sidewall and a second sidewall disposed opposite to form the receiving groove. The first sidewall is a surface near the first end. The first sidewall is configured to restrict the sound module from continuing to rotate in a first direction in the first state and to restrict the sound module from continuing to rotate in a second direction in the second state.
[0041] Wherein, the first direction and the second direction are opposite, and the first direction is the direction of rotation toward the main body of the glasses, while the second direction is the direction of rotation away from the main body of the glasses.
[0042] By incorporating a receiving groove on the temples, the sound module can be housed within it in its initial state. This design achieves two advantages: firstly, by utilizing the space within the temples to accommodate the sound module without increasing the temple's thickness, a slimmer and lighter design can be realized; secondly, the receiving groove protects the sound module from damage during transport or storage, ensuring its integrity. Furthermore, it prevents the sound module from protruding excessively from the temple surface, contributing to a pleasing appearance for the glasses.
[0043] Furthermore, using the first sidewall of the receiving groove as a limiting surface for the sound module to rotate to the first and second states provides a restraining effect, limiting the rotation range of the sound module and preventing excessive rotation. This helps extend the service life of the connection between the sound module and the temple. Simultaneously, using the first sidewall as a physical stop eliminates the need for additional limiting structures, simplifying the temple structure design, reducing the number of parts used, and thus simplifying the eyeglass assembly process.
[0044] As an optional implementation, the first end has a first arcuate surface and a first plane that are connected to each other. In the first state, the first arcuate surface is disposed opposite to the first sidewall, and the first plane is located at the first opening.
[0045] The first sidewall includes:
[0046] The arc-shaped portion has the same radius as the first arc-shaped surface. In the first state, the arc-shaped portion is configured to abut against the first arc-shaped surface to restrict the sound module from continuing to rotate along the first direction.
[0047] The planar portion is connected to the arc-shaped portion along the rotation direction of the sound module. The planar portion is inclined away from the second sidewall relative to the extension direction of the temple, and the inclination angle is greater than 90°. The planar portion is configured to abut against the first plane in the second state to restrict the sound module from continuing to rotate along the second direction.
[0048] By dividing the first sidewall into an arc-shaped portion and a flat portion, in the first state, the arc-shaped portion engages with the first arc-shaped surface at the first end, achieving a limiting function. The curved surface contact between the two also reduces stress concentration and wear during rotation, resulting in smoother rotation of the sound module. In the second state, the flat portion contacts the first flat surface, providing a stop for the sound module. The planar contact between the flat portion and the first flat surface provides a larger stopping area, resulting in higher limiting accuracy for the sound module.
[0049] By setting the first plane to be inclined away from the second sidewall relative to the extension direction of the temple, the first opening is roughly flared. That is, the distance between the first sidewall and the second sidewall gradually increases from the inside of the receiving groove toward the first opening. The inclined plane portion causes the sound module to stop at the current position when it rotates to a preset angle, thereby allowing the sound module to rotate a larger range.
[0050] As an optional implementation, the temple has opposing inner and outer surfaces, the inner surfaces of the two temples are arranged facing each other, the receiving groove is disposed on the outer surface, and the receiving groove extends through the temple along the height direction of the temple, so that the receiving groove forms the first opening and the second opening in the height direction of the temple.
[0051] The receiving slot is set on the outer surface of the temple, meaning that when the glasses are worn, the sound module is located on a surface that is not close to the skin of the face. This allows the sound module to be rotated without interference from the face, providing a larger operating space, improving the user's ease of operation, and also enhancing the user's wearing comfort.
[0052] If the receiving slot is open on one side, the height dimension of the temple needs to be increased to accommodate the sound module while keeping the size of the sound module constant. This would increase the size and weight of the temple, hindering the lightweight design of the glasses. Therefore, this application sets the receiving slot as a through slot running through the height dimension of the temple. This ensures that the receiving slot is large enough to accommodate the sound module without excessively increasing the height dimension of the temple, making the glasses lighter. Furthermore, since the receiving slot has openings on both sides of the temple in the height direction, the first opening allows the sound module to rotate out of the receiving slot, while the second opening exposes the side of the sound module, providing operational space for rotation and improving user convenience. For example, the user can easily rotate the sound module out by pushing it from the side with the second opening (the upper side of the temple when the glasses are worn).
[0053] As an optional implementation, the second end has a second arcuate surface disposed opposite to the first arcuate surface. In the first state, the second arcuate surface is disposed opposite to the second sidewall, and the shape of the second arcuate surface is adapted to the shape of the second sidewall.
[0054] Both the second arcuate surface and the second sidewall are constructed as arcuate surfaces centered on the rotation axis of the sound module.
[0055] This design ensures that when the sound module is housed in the receiving slot, there is a minimum gap between the surface of the second end of the sound module and the second sidewall of the receiving slot, allowing for a good fit between the sound module and the temples. This also ensures that the outer surface of the temples is continuous without large gaps, thus guaranteeing the aesthetic appearance of the glasses.
[0056] With the width of the sound module remaining constant, the second arc surface with a larger radius has a gentler curvature compared to the second arc surface with a smaller radius. This allows for the freeing up of internal space in the sound module, providing more room for the internal components. Furthermore, it ensures that the second sidewall of the receiving slot can also be adapted to the second arc surface to achieve a minimum gap, while also ensuring that the second end does not interfere with the second sidewall when rotating out of the receiving slot, thus guaranteeing the smooth rotation of the sound module.
[0057] As an optional implementation, the preset angle ranges from 90° to 120°, and the length of the sound module is not less than 1.5cm.
[0058] If the preset angle is less than 90°, meaning the angle at which the sound module tilts relative to the temple's extension direction is less than 90° after the sound module is unfolded, the angle at which the sound module rotates towards the ear is small. This results in a limited range of adjustable rotation for the sound module. For users with different head sizes or wearing habits, the distance between the sound module and the ear may still be too large, leading to insufficient sound transmission. If the preset angle is greater than 120°, meaning the angle at which the sound module tilts relative to the temple's extension direction is greater than 120° after the sound module is unfolded, the angle at which the sound module rotates towards the ear is too large, potentially interfering with the ear and affecting user comfort.
[0059] Therefore, by limiting the range of rotation angle of the sound module relative to the temple in the second state to a reasonable range, the adjustable rotation range of the sound module relative to the temple can be controlled within a reasonable range. This ensures that the sound quality and privacy can be guaranteed while adapting to various wearing scenarios, and also ensures the user's comfort. In other words, by limiting the range of preset angles, this application can take into account both the functionality and wearing comfort of the sound module during use.
[0060] As the temples of current smart glasses become increasingly thinner, and the sound module also needs to be adapted to the thickness of the temples, this application sets the length of the sound module to be no less than 1.5cm. That is, the sound module is made into a thin, elongated strip structure. With this setting, after rotating the sound module more than 90°, the sound outlet of the thin sound module can more effectively face the human ear, making the distance between the sound outlet and the human ear closer, thereby making the volume of the sound transmitted to the human ear better.
[0061] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this application are:
[0062] The glasses provided in this application connect a sound module to the temple of the glasses in a rotating manner. In the first state, the sound module is stacked on the temple, and in the second state, it can be unfolded relative to the temple and rotated to a preset angle. This allows the sound outlet of the sound module to face the ear when the glasses are worn, thereby shortening the distance between the sound module and the ear and increasing the volume of sound transmitted to the ear. This allows the user to hear the sound transmitted by the sound module clearly without having to turn up the volume, thus improving the privacy of sound transmission. Meanwhile, since the rotation angle of the sound module relative to the temple is greater than 90° in the second state, the sound module can be rotated to a tilt angle of more than 90°, causing the sound module to tilt towards the temple in the second state. That is, the distance from the sound outlet of the sound module to the temple in the height direction of the temple is shortened. Since the human ear canal is usually located on the front of the auricle and tilted slightly backward, when the temple is placed on the ear, a tilt angle of more than 90° can make the sound module closer to the ear and fit the periauricular area more ergonomically, minimizing the distance of sound transmission to the ear and thus making the sound transmission to the ear more effective.
[0063] Furthermore, by limiting the angle of rotation of the sound module relative to the temple to greater than 90° in the second state, the sound module can rotate to a larger range of angles. This allows the sound module to be closer to the ear, ensuring that the sound is transmitted to the ear more accurately and resulting in better sound quality. At the same time, the large range of rotation can also adapt to different head sizes (such as children or adults) and wearing habits (such as the height of the glasses), thereby improving the versatility of the glasses.

[0082] The technical solution of this application will be further described below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings.
[0083] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 This application discloses a pair of glasses 100, which can be AR (Augmented Reality) glasses 100, VR (Virtual Reality) glasses 100, or other smart glasses 100.
[0084] In some embodiments, the eyeglasses 100 includes an eyeglass body 10 and two temples 20 connected to the eyeglass body 10. Specifically, the two temples 20 are located on both sides of the eyeglass body 10 and are rotatably connected to the eyeglass body 10 so that the two temples 20 can open and close in directions away from or close to each other.
[0085] See Figure 1 In some embodiments, the main body of the glasses 10 includes a frame 11 and a lens 12. The frame 11 is used to fix the lens 12, and the temples 20 are rotatably connected to both sides of the frame 11 and are used to rest on the ears.
[0086] When the glasses 100 are smart glasses 100, the lenses 12 can be used to display image information so that the image information can be projected onto the user's eyes to achieve image interaction with the user.
[0087] Combination Figure 2 In some embodiments, the glasses 100 includes a sound module 30, which is rotatably connected to the temple 20. The sound module 30 has a first state and a second state. In the first state, the sound module 30 is stacked on the temple 20. In the second state, the sound module 30 is unfolded relative to the temple 20 and rotated relative to the temple 20 to a preset angle α, so that the sound outlet 302 of the sound module 30 faces the ear when the glasses 100 is worn. The preset angle α is greater than 90°.
[0088] It is understood that the sound module 30 can rotate relative to the temple 20 toward the human ear, so that the sound outlet of the sound module 30 rotates toward the human ear.
[0089] It should be noted that the sound module 30 refers to a module that has an internal speaker and a sound outlet 302 on its surface to transmit sound. For example, the sound module 30 can be headphones, a speaker, etc. Specifically, the sound module 30 can include a housing and a speaker. The housing has a receiving space and a sound outlet 302 communicating with the receiving space. The speaker is disposed in the receiving space and is disposed corresponding to the sound outlet 302. The sound emitted by the speaker can be transmitted to the outside through the sound outlet 302.
[0090] Combination Figures 1 to 3 In some embodiments, the temple 20 has opposing inner surfaces 20e and outer surfaces 20f, with the inner surfaces 20e of the two temples 20 facing each other, and the sound module 30 may be disposed on the outer surface 20f of the temple 20.
[0091] It is worth noting that the temple 20 is usually provided with a wearing position 20a, which is a recess formed at the end of the temple 20 away from the main body 10 of the glasses. When wearing glasses 100, the recess is located above the ear and in contact with the ear. The sound module 30 is located on the side of the wearing position 20a closer to the main body 10 of the glasses, so that the sound module 30 can be located in front of the ear after wearing glasses 100.
[0092] It should be noted that the aforementioned first state can refer to the extreme position reached by the sound module 30 during its rotation away from the wearer's ear. For example, when the sound module 30 rotates clockwise relative to the temple 20 to the first state, and at this point, the sound module 30 can no longer rotate clockwise, then the first state of the sound module 30 can be the extreme position of its clockwise rotation relative to the temple 20. At this point, the sound module 30 is relatively far from the wearer's ear.
[0093] The second state can refer to the extreme position reached by the sound module 30 during its rotation towards the ear. For example, when the sound module 30 rotates counterclockwise relative to the temple 20 to the second state, it can no longer rotate counterclockwise. Therefore, the second state of the sound module 30 can be the extreme position of its counterclockwise rotation relative to the temple 20. In other words, when the sound module 30 rotates to the second state, it reaches its maximum angle, meaning that the preset angle α is the maximum angle of tilt relative to the temple 20's extension direction Y during rotation. At this point, the distance between the sound module 30 and the wearer's ear is closest.
[0094] The glasses 100 provided in this application connects the sound module 30 to the temple 20 by rotating it. In the first state, the sound module 30 is stacked on the temple 20. In the second state, it can be unfolded relative to the temple 20 and rotated to a preset angle α. This allows the sound outlet 302 of the sound module 30 to face the ear when the glasses 100 is worn, thereby shortening the distance between the sound module 30 and the ear. This increases the volume of sound transmitted to the ear, allowing the user to hear the sound transmitted by the sound module 30 clearly without having to turn up the volume, thus improving the privacy of sound transmission. Meanwhile, since the rotation angle of the sound module 30 relative to the temple 20 is greater than 90° in the second state, the sound module 30 can be rotated to a tilt angle of more than 90°, causing the sound module 30 to tilt towards the temple 20 (tilt upward) in the second state. That is, the distance from the sound outlet 302 of the sound module 30 to the temple 20 in the height direction of the temple 20 is shortened. Since the human ear canal is usually located on the front side of the auricle and tilted slightly backward, when the temple 20 is placed on the human ear, a tilt angle of more than 90° can make the sound module 30 closer to the human ear and fit the periauricular area more ergonomically, thus minimizing the distance of sound transmission to the human ear and making the sound transmission to the human ear more effective.
[0095] Furthermore, by limiting the angle of rotation of the sound module 30 relative to the temple 20 in the second state to greater than 90°, the sound module 30 can rotate to a larger range of angles. This allows the sound module 30 to be closer to the ear, ensuring that the sound can be transmitted to the ear more accurately and resulting in better sound quality. At the same time, the large range of rotation can also adapt to different head sizes (such as children or adults) and wearing habits (such as the height of the glasses 100), thereby improving the versatility of the glasses 100.
[0096] It is understood that, in the embodiments of this application, in the first state, the sound module 30 is stacked on the temple 20, which can maintain the overall thin and streamlined appearance of the glasses 100 and not affect daily wear. In the second state, the sound module 30 is extended to a preset angle α, ensuring that the sound module 30 is precisely close to the ear when the glasses 100 is worn, ensuring the volume of sound transmitted to the ear, reducing sound leakage, and improving sound quality clarity and volume efficiency. In addition, the sound module 30 can switch between the first state and the second state, which facilitates the user to quickly switch between using and not using the sound module 30, enhancing the versatility of the glasses 100.
[0097] Optionally, to ensure the lightweight and symmetry of the glasses 100, sound modules 30 can be installed on both temples 20 and arranged symmetrically, so as to transmit sound to the left and right ears of the human body respectively.
[0098] In some embodiments, the preset angle α ranges from 90° to 120°. Optionally, the preset angle α can be 90° to 110°, 100° to 120°, or 105° to 115°, for example, it can be 100°, 105°, 110°, or 120°.
[0099] If the preset angle α is less than 90°, that is, after the sound module 30 is unfolded relative to the temple 20, the angle of inclination of the sound module 30 relative to the extension direction Y of the temple 20 is less than 90°. This results in a smaller angle of rotation of the sound module 30 towards the ear, thus limiting its adjustable range. For users with different head sizes or wearing habits, this may still result in a larger distance between the sound module 30 and the ear, leading to insufficient sound transmission. If the preset angle α is greater than 120°, that is, after the sound module 30 is unfolded relative to the temple 20, the angle of inclination of the sound module 30 relative to the extension direction Y of the temple 20 is greater than 120°. This results in an excessively large angle of rotation of the sound module 30 towards the ear, potentially interfering with the ear and affecting user comfort.
[0100] Therefore, by limiting the range of rotation angle of the sound module 30 relative to the temple 20 in the second state to a reasonable range, the adjustable rotation range of the sound module 30 relative to the temple 20 can be controlled within a reasonable range. This ensures that the sound quality and privacy can be guaranteed while adapting to various wearing scenarios, and also ensures the user's comfort. In other words, by limiting the range of the preset angle α, this application can take into account both the functionality and wearing comfort of the sound module 30 during use.
[0101] In some embodiments, the length of the sound module is not less than 1.5cm. Optionally, the length of the sound module can be 1.5cm, 2cm, 2.5cm, etc.
[0102] As the temples of current smart glasses become increasingly thinner, and the sound module also needs to be adapted to the thickness of the temples, this application sets the length of the sound module to be no less than 1.5cm. That is, the sound module is made into a thin, elongated strip structure. With this setting, after rotating the sound module more than 90°, the sound outlet of the thin sound module can more effectively face the human ear, making the distance between the sound outlet and the human ear closer, thereby making the sound volume transmitted to the human ear better.
[0103] Please refer to the following: Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the temple 20 is provided with a shaft hole 20b, and the eyeglasses 100 also includes a pivot assembly 40, which connects the sound module 30 and the temple 20 so that the sound module 30 can rotate relative to the temple 20.
[0104] In some embodiments, the pivot assembly 40 includes a shaft 41, one end of which is fixedly connected to the sound module 30, and the other end of which passes through the shaft hole 20b so that the shaft 41 is rotatably connected to the temple 20.
[0105] In some embodiments, the pivot assembly 40 includes a damping element 42, which is sleeved on the outer periphery of the shaft body 41 and is used to provide a damping force to keep the sound module 30 in its current position.
[0106] By designing a rotating component including a shaft 41 and a damping component 42, the damping component 42 provides damping force for the rotation of the shaft 41, allowing the sound module 30 to be held at any rotation angle. This allows the user to suspend the sound module 30 at any position between the first and second states as needed, making the sound module 30 more adaptable.
[0107] It is worth noting that the damping element 42 is used to provide damping force to keep the sound module 30 in the current position, meaning that after the sound module 30 is rotated to any position, the damping element 42 can make the sound module 30 stop in the current position. For example, when the sound module 30 is rotated to the second state, the current position is the position where the sound component is in the second state.
[0108] Optionally, the damping element 42 can be a rubber ring, spring ring, or other element that can be fitted around the outer periphery of the shaft 41 to provide friction during the rotation of the shaft 41 and keep the sound module 30 at its current position.
[0109] It is understandable that the sound module 30 configured on the glasses 100 is usually small in size. If electrical components are integrated on the entire sound module 30 to realize the function of the sound module 30, then higher requirements are placed on the stacking design of the sound module 30.
[0110] Based on this, in some embodiments, the shaft 41 is provided with a wire-passing hole 41a, that is, the shaft 41 is hollow to allow the connecting wire 50 to pass through. The wire-passing hole 41a can penetrate both end faces of the shaft 41 along its axial direction, and the wire-passing hole 41a is coaxial with the shaft 41. It can be understood that the inner diameter of the wire-passing hole 41a depends on the size of the connecting wire 50. Typically, the inner diameter of the wire-passing hole 41a is larger than the wire diameter of the connecting wire 50 to ensure that the connecting wire 50 can easily enter and exit the shaft 41.
[0111] In some embodiments, the eyeglasses 100 also includes a circuit board (not shown) disposed on the temple 20.
[0112] In some embodiments, the glasses 100 further includes a connecting wire 50, one end of which is connected to a circuit board, and the other end of which passes through a wire hole 41a and is electrically connected to the sound module 30.
[0113] By providing a wiring hole on the shaft 41 for the connecting wire 50 to pass through, the circuit board can be placed on the temple 20 while ensuring the electrical connection between the sound module 30 and the circuit board is achieved. This simplifies the structural design of the sound module 30 without excessively occupying space on the sound module 30, which is beneficial for achieving a miniaturized design of the sound module 30.
[0114] In some embodiments, a wiring groove 21b is provided on the side of the temple 20 facing the shaft 41. The wiring groove 21b extends along the extension direction Y of the temple 20. The wiring groove 21b communicates with the wire hole 41a, and the connecting wire 50 is routed through the wire hole 41a to the wiring groove 21b.
[0115] By providing a cable routing groove 21b on the side of the temple 20 facing the shaft 41 and communicating with the cable passage hole 41a, a guiding channel is provided for the connecting wire 50, so that the connecting wire 50 is neatly arranged inside the temple 20, reducing assembly difficulty and maintenance costs.
[0116] It is understandable that the wiring channel 21b can guide the connecting wire 50 that passes through the wire hole 41a of the shaft 41 away from the connection between the sound module 30 and the temple 20, so that the circuit board is at a certain distance from the rotating connection, and the components on the temple 20 are arranged reasonably.
[0117] Combination Figures 4 to 6 In some embodiments, the shaft 41 includes a first shaft portion 411, one end of which is fixedly connected to the sound module 30, and the first shaft portion 411 is at least partially located in the shaft hole 20b.
[0118] Optionally, the first shaft portion 411 can be entirely located within the shaft hole 20b. In this case, the first shaft portion 411 can be fixed to the surface of the sound module 30 facing the temple 20. Alternatively, a portion of the first shaft portion 411 can be fixed inside the sound module 30, while another portion of the first shaft portion 411 can extend out of the sound module 30, with the extended portion located within the shaft hole 20b. The specific configuration will be explained in conjunction with subsequent embodiments.
[0119] In some embodiments, the shaft 41 includes a second shaft portion 412 connected to the other end of the first shaft portion 411, and the diameter of the second shaft portion 412 is larger than the diameter of the portion of the first shaft portion 411 located in the shaft hole 20b.
[0120] In some embodiments, the temple 20 has an inner wall surface 20c for surrounding the shaft hole 20b, and a groove 20d is provided on the inner wall surface 20c. The groove 20d is disposed around the shaft hole 20b, and the second shaft portion 412 is engaged with the groove 20d to limit the position of the shaft body 41 along the axial direction of the shaft hole 20b.
[0121] By dividing the shaft 41 into a first shaft portion 411 and a second shaft portion 412, and setting the diameter of the second shaft portion 412 to be larger than the diameter of the portion of the first shaft portion 411 located in the shaft hole 20b, a protrusion is formed at one end of the shaft 41 near the temple 20. This protrusion engages with the groove 20d of the inner wall surface 20c of the shaft hole 20b, which restricts the axial movement of the shaft 41, prevents the sound module 30 from loosening or falling off during rotation, and ensures the axial stability of the shaft 41.
[0122] Since the temple 20 has a wiring groove 21b on the side facing the temple 20, after the shaft 41 is assembled, the second shaft part 412 will cover the top of the wiring groove 21b. If the damping member 42 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the second shaft part 412, the part of the damping member 42 corresponding to the wiring groove 21b will be suspended. When the damping member 42 is a rubber part, its soft characteristics may cause the damping member 42 to deform due to uneven force during the rotation of the shaft 41 due to insufficient support at the bottom, thus failing to provide effective damping force.
[0123] Based on this, in some embodiments, the damping member 42 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the first shaft portion 411 and located between the first shaft portion 411 and the shaft hole 20b.
[0124] This application incorporates a damping element 42 fitted around the outer periphery of the first shaft portion 411, such that the end face of the damping element 42 contacts the second shaft portion 41. The second shaft portion 41 provides effective support for the damping element 42, ensuring that it is not easily deformed during the rotation of the shaft portion 41, thereby providing effective damping force. This not only does not affect the rotation of the shaft portion 41 but also allows the shaft portion 41 to be suspended at any angle. Furthermore, while providing effective damping force, it also reduces the contact area between the damping element 42 and the inner wall surface 20c, as well as the shaft portion 41, avoiding excessive friction that could lead to uneven rotation.
[0125] In some embodiments, the first shaft portion 411 includes a first sub-portion 411a, one end of which is connected to the second shaft portion 412. The first sub-portion 411a is located in the shaft hole 20b, and the diameter of the second shaft portion 412 is larger than the diameter of the first sub-portion 411a.
[0126] It can be understood that the first sub-part 411a is the part of the shaft 41 described above located in the shaft hole 20b.
[0127] In some embodiments, the first shaft portion 411 includes a second sub-portion 411b, which is connected to the other end of the first sub-portion 411a. The diameter of the second sub-portion 411b is larger than the diameter of the first sub-portion 411a. The sound module 30 is provided with a first mounting groove 301, and the second sub-portion 411b is mounted in the first mounting groove 301. Therefore, the second sub-portion 411b is connected to the sound module 30 to achieve a fixed connection between the shaft 41 and the sound module 30.
[0128] Since the diameter of the second sub-part 411b is larger than that of the first sub-part 411a, and the second sub-part 411b is a component connected to the sound module 30, it can provide a larger mounting surface, making the connection between the shaft 41 and the sound module 30 more stable, thereby making the rotation of the sound module 30 relative to the temple 20 more reliable.
[0129] Furthermore, the different diameter designs of the first sub-part 411a and the second sub-part 411b form a stepped shaft. By utilizing the first mounting slot 301 on the sound module 30, the second sub-part 411b can be installed in the first mounting slot 301, which can further increase the contact area between the shaft 41 and the sound module 30 and improve the stability of the shaft 41 installation.
[0130] Optionally, the second sub-part 411b can be fixed to the sound module 30 by adhesive or screw. It can be seen that when connected by adhesive, the larger diameter of the second sub-part 411b compared to the first sub-part 411a and the design of being installed in the mounting groove can provide a larger adhesive area for the second sub-part 411b, thereby improving the stability of the adhesive.
[0131] It is understood that the aforementioned wire hole 41a passes through the second sub-part 411b, the first sub-part 411a, and the second shaft part 412, so that the connecting wire 50 passes through the shaft body 41 continuously.
[0132] Continue reading Figure 6 In some embodiments, the damping member 42 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the first sub-part 411a and is located along the axial direction of the shaft hole 20b between the second shaft part 412 and the second sub-part 411b.
[0133] Since the diameter of the second shaft portion 412 is also larger than the diameter of the first sub-portion 411a, the cross-section of the shaft body 41 is approximately I-shaped. Thus, by using the first sub-portion 411a located in the middle as a carrier for the damping member 42, the damping member 42 is constrained axially between the second shaft portion 412 and the second sub-portion 411b along the first axial direction. The structure of the shaft body 41 itself can limit the position of the damping member 42, so that both ends of the damping member 42 are in contact with flat and continuous surfaces, preventing the damping member 42 from deforming or shifting axially along the shaft hole 20b, ensuring constant damping force, and making the rotation of the sound module 30 smoother.
[0134] It is understandable that the diameter of the second sub-part 411b is not only larger than the diameter of the first sub-part 411a, but also larger than the outer diameter of the damping member 42, so that the end of the damping member 42 away from the second shaft 412 abuts against the second sub-part 411b. Since the second sub-part 411b is installed in the first mounting groove 301, there will be a connection between the second sub-part 411b and the sound module 30. If the end of the damping member 42 away from the second shaft 412 abuts against this connection, in order to ensure that the damping member 42 contacts a relatively flat surface, it is necessary to ensure that the gap between the sound module 30 and the second sub-part 411b is small. That is, the radial dimension of the second sub-part 411b must match the depth of the first mounting groove 301. This also places high demands on the machining accuracy of both and increases the machining difficulty. Based on this, this application defines the damping member 42 as being located between the second shaft portion 412 and the second sub-portion 411b along the axial direction of the shaft hole 20b. By utilizing the structure of the shaft body 41 itself, the surfaces that the end face of the damping member 42 contacts are all the surfaces of the same component, so that the damping member 42 acts uniformly on the rotation center and avoids deformation due to unstable force.
[0135] Continue reading Figure 4 and Figure 5 In some embodiments, the temple 20 includes a temple body 21, which is connected to the eyeglass body 10. In a first state, the sound module 30 is stacked on the temple body 21. In a second state, the sound module 30 is unfolded relative to the temple body 21. The temple body 21 is provided with a second mounting groove 21a.
[0136] As mentioned above, the temple 20 has a wiring groove 21b on the side facing the shaft 41. When the temple 20 includes the temple body 21 and the fixing member 22, the wiring groove 21b is located on the bottom wall of the second mounting groove 21a, which is the side facing the shaft 41.
[0137] In some embodiments, the temple 20 includes a fixing member 22, which is disposed in a second mounting groove 21a to fix it to the temple body 21. The fixing member 22 is provided with a shaft hole 20b and a groove 20d.
[0138] By setting the fastener 22 for connection with the shaft 41 independently, it is easier to form the groove 20d on the individual fastener 22, reducing the processing difficulty. On the other hand, when the fastener 22 is damaged, only the fastener 22 needs to be replaced, without replacing the entire temple 20, which helps to reduce the repair cost when the glasses 100 is damaged.
[0139] In some embodiments, the sound module 30 has a first end 30a and a second end 30b opposite to each other. In a first state, the first end 30a is the end away from the glasses body 10, and the second end 30b is the end close to the glasses body 10. The first end 30a is rotatably connected to the temple 20 so that when the glasses 100 is worn, the second end 30b rotates toward the ear. That is, the first end 30a is the connecting end, and the second end 30b is the free end, which can rotate around the first end 30a.
[0140] It is understandable that when the glasses are worn, the sound module 30 is located in front of the ear. When it is necessary to switch the sound module 30 from the first state to the second state, the sound module 30 can be rotated from front to back, so that the sound module 30 rotates backward to face the ear.
[0141] Optionally, the sound module 30 can be a long strip-shaped plate structure or a block structure. Then, the first end 30a and the second end 30b can be the two ends of the sound module 30 along its own length direction. This allows the sound module 30 to have sufficient extension length when unfolded relative to the temple 20, so that it faces the human ear to the maximum extent.
[0142] Optionally, in order to make the sound outlet 302 face the human ear when the sound module 30 is unfolded relative to the temple 20 and is in its second state, the sound outlet 302 is positioned close to the second end 30b, so that the sound outlet 302 moves closer to the human ear as the second end 30b of the sound module 30 rotates.
[0143] See Figures 7 to 10 In some embodiments, the temple 20 is provided with a receiving groove 201 having a first opening 201a. In the wearing state, the first opening 201a is oriented downward along the height direction Z of the temple 20.
[0144] In the first state, the sound module 30 is housed in the receiving groove 201. In the second state, the sound module 30 is unfolded relative to the temple 20 so that a portion of the sound module 30 rotates out of the receiving groove 201 from the first opening 201a.
[0145] By providing a receiving groove 201 on the temple 20, the sound module 30 can be housed in the receiving groove 201 in the first state. On the one hand, while keeping the thickness of the temple 20 unchanged, the space on the temple 20 can be used to house the sound module 30, so that the sound module 30 does not add extra thickness to the temple 20, thus achieving a thinner and lighter design for the temple 20. On the other hand, housing the sound module 30 in the receiving groove 201 can protect the sound module 30 from damage during transportation or storage, thus ensuring the integrity of the sound module 30. At the same time, it also prevents the sound module 30 from protruding excessively from the surface of the temple 20, giving the glasses 100 a good appearance.
[0146] Optionally, when the sound module 30 is housed in the receiving groove 201, the outer surface 20f of the temple 20 is flush with the outer surface 20f of the sound module 30, so that the sound module 30 is completely housed in the receiving groove 201, and the outer surface 20f of the temple 20 is flat and without protrusion, so as to ensure the aesthetics of the glasses 100.
[0147] Combination Figure 9 In some embodiments, the temple 20 has a first sidewall 202 and a second sidewall 203 disposed opposite to each other for surrounding a receiving groove 201, the first sidewall 202 being the surface near the first end 30a. In a first state, the second sidewall 203 is the surface near the second end 30b.
[0148] Combination Figure 9 and Figure 10 In some embodiments, the first sidewall 202 is configured to restrict the sound module 30 from continuing to rotate along a first direction X1 in a first state, and to restrict the sound module 30 from continuing to rotate along a second direction X2 in a second state. The first direction X1 and the second direction X2 are opposite, with the first direction X1 being a direction of rotation towards the glasses body 10, and the second direction X2 being a direction of rotation away from the glasses body 10. For example, the first direction X1 is clockwise, and the second direction X2 is counterclockwise. Of course, in other examples, the first direction X1 can be counterclockwise, and the second direction X2 can be clockwise.
[0149] Preferably, in the first state, with the first end 30a being the end furthest from the main body 10 of the glasses and the second end 30b being the end closest to the main body 10 of the glasses, when the glasses 100 are worn, the first end 30a is the end closest to the ear. Combined with the fact that the sound module 30 is located on the outer surface 20f of the temple 20, the first direction X1 is clockwise, and the second direction X2 is counterclockwise. This arrangement ensures that in the second state, the sound module 30 is maximally close to the ear, and that there is no interference with the ear during rotation, balancing the volume of the sound transmitted by the sound module 30 with wearing comfort.
[0150] By using the first sidewall 202 of the receiving groove 201 as a limiting surface for the sound module 30 to rotate to the first and second states, a restraining effect can be provided for the sound module 30, limiting its rotation range and preventing excessive rotation. This helps extend the service life of the rotational connection between the sound module 30 and the temple 20. Simultaneously, using the first sidewall 202 as a physical stop eliminates the need for additional limiting structures, simplifying the structural design of the temple 20, reducing the number of parts used, and thus simplifying the assembly process of the glasses 100.
[0151] Continue reading Figure 7 and Figure 8 In some embodiments, the first end 30a has a first arcuate surface 30c and a first plane 30d connected to each other. In the first state, the first arcuate surface 30c is disposed opposite to the first sidewall 202, and the first plane 30d is located at the first opening 201a.
[0152] As can be seen from the foregoing, the sound module 30 can be elongated, with the first end 30a and the second end 30b arranged opposite each other along the length of the sound module 30. The sound module 30 also has two sides along its width, and the first plane 30d mentioned above is the side of the sound module 30.
[0153] Optionally, the sound outlet 302 is disposed on the first plane 30d and close to the second plane, so that when the sound module 30 switches from the first state to the second state, the sound outlet 302 can gradually move closer to the human ear as the sound module 30 rotates, and finally, when the second state is reached, the distance between the sound outlet 302 and the human ear is the shortest.
[0154] In some embodiments, the first sidewall 202 includes an arcuate portion 202a, the radius of which is the same as the radius of the first arcuate surface 30c. In a first state, the arcuate portion is configured to abut against the first arcuate surface 30c to limit the sound module 30 from continuing to rotate along the first direction X1.
[0155] Combination Figure 9 and Figure 10 In some embodiments, the first sidewall 202 includes a planar portion 202b, which is connected to the arcuate portion 202a along the rotation direction of the sound module 30. The planar portion 202b is inclined away from the second sidewall 203 relative to the extension direction Y of the temple 20, and the inclination angle is greater than 90°. The planar portion 202b is configured to abut against the first plane 30d in the second state to restrict the sound module 30 from continuing to rotate along the second direction X2.
[0156] By dividing the first sidewall 202 into an arc-shaped portion 202a and a flat portion 202b, in the first state, the arc-shaped portion 202a engages with the first arc-shaped surface 30c of the first end 30a. This not only provides a limiting function, but the curved surface contact between the two also reduces stress concentration and wear during rotation, resulting in smoother rotation of the sound module 30. In the second state, the flat portion 202b contacts the first flat surface 30d, providing a stop for the sound module 30. The planar contact between the flat portion 202b and the first flat surface 30d provides a larger stopping area, resulting in higher limiting accuracy for the sound module 30.
[0157] By setting the first plane 30d to be inclined away from the second sidewall 203 relative to the extension direction Y of the temple 20, the first opening 201a is roughly flared. That is, the distance between the first sidewall 202 and the second sidewall 203 gradually increases from the inside of the receiving groove 201 toward the first opening 201a. The inclined plane portion 202b causes the sound module 30 to stop at the current position when it rotates to the preset angle α, thereby allowing the sound module 30 to rotate a larger range.
[0158] It is understandable that since the planar portion 202b abuts against the first plane 30d in the second state to limit the sound module 30 from continuing to rotate along the second direction X2, it can be seen that the design of the planar portion 202b affects the size of the preset angle α. By tilting the planar portion 202b relative to the extension direction Y of the temple 20 away from the second sidewall 203, and setting the tilt angle to be greater than 90°, the preset angle α to which the temple 20 rotates in the second state is greater than 90°.
[0159] Continue reading Figure 7 In some embodiments, the receiving groove 201 is disposed on the outer surface 20f, and the receiving groove 201 extends through the temple 20 along the height direction Z of the temple 20, so that the receiving groove 201 forms a first opening 201a and a second opening 201b in the height direction Z of the temple 20.
[0160] It can be understood that the receiving groove 201 is a through groove that runs through the height direction Z of the temple 20. That is, the first opening 201a is set vertically in the height direction Z of the temple 20, with the first opening 201a located at the bottom and the second opening 201b located at the top, so that the sound module 30 can be rotated out from the receiving groove 201 from top to bottom.
[0161] The receiving slot 201 is set on the outer surface 20f of the temple 20. That is, when the glasses 100 is worn, the sound module 30 is located on a surface that is not close to the skin of the face. In this way, when the sound module 30 is rotated, it can be operated without interference from the face, with a large operating space, which improves the user's operation convenience and also improves the user's wearing comfort.
[0162] If the receiving slot 201 is open on one side, the height dimension of the temple 20 needs to be increased to accommodate the sound module 30 while keeping the size of the sound module 30 unchanged. This would increase the volume and weight of the temple 20, which is detrimental to the lightweight design of the glasses 100. Therefore, this application sets the receiving slot 201 as a through slot in the height direction Z of the temple 20. This ensures that the size of the receiving slot 201 is sufficient to accommodate the sound module 30 without excessively increasing the height dimension of the temple 20, thus making the glasses 100 lighter. At the same time, since the receiving slot 201 has openings on both sides in the height direction Z of the temple 20, the first opening 201a allows the sound module 30 to rotate out of the receiving slot 201, while the second opening 201b allows the side of the sound module 30 to be exposed, providing operating space for rotating the sound module 30 and improving the convenience of user operation. For example, the user can easily rotate the sound module 30 by pushing it from the side where the second opening 201b is located (the upper side of the temple 20 when the glasses 100 is worn).
[0163] Combination Figure 7 and Figure 9 In some embodiments, the second end 30b has a second arcuate surface 30e disposed opposite to the first arcuate surface 30c. In the first state, the second arcuate surface 30e is disposed opposite to the second sidewall 203, and the shape of the second arcuate surface 30e is adapted to the shape of the second sidewall 203.
[0164] With this configuration, when the sound module 30 is housed in the receiving groove 201, the surface of the second end 30b of the sound module 30 and the second side wall 203 of the receiving groove 201 are minimized, so that the sound module 30 and the temple 20 are well fitted, and the outer surface 20f of the temple 20 is continuous without large gaps, thus ensuring the aesthetic appearance of the glasses 100.
[0165] In some embodiments, both the second arcuate surface 30e and the second sidewall 203 are constructed as arcuate surfaces centered on the rotation axis of the sound module 30. In other words, when the temple 20, the sound module 30, and the pivot assembly 40 are projected onto a plane parallel to the height direction Z of the temple 20, if a circle is drawn with the axis of the pivot assembly 40 as the center and the distance from the axis to the second arcuate surface 30e, this circle not only matches the second arcuate surface 30e but also matches the second sidewall 203.
[0166] With the width of the sound module 30 remaining unchanged, the second arc surface 30e with a larger radius has a gentler curvature compared to the second arc surface 30e with a smaller radius. This can, on the one hand, free up internal space in the sound module 30, providing more space for the internal components of the sound module 30. On the other hand, it can ensure that the second sidewall 203 of the receiving groove can also be adapted to the second arc surface 30e to achieve a minimum gap, while also ensuring that the second end 30b does not interfere with the second sidewall 203 when rotating out of the receiving groove 201, thereby ensuring the smooth rotation of the sound module 30.
