Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of Bluetooth headset technology, specifically a Bluetooth ear hook integrally molded from silicone, plastic and FPC. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, mainstream OWS (Open Source System) Bluetooth headphones on the market are roughly divided into two main types: ear-hook and ear-clip. Ear-hook Bluetooth headphones use an arc-shaped ear hook structure to hang on the upper outer side of the ear. One end of the ear hook connects to a speaker, which aligns with the ear canal for sound output. The other end of the ear hook is fixedly connected to the main body of the Bluetooth headset. The main body houses the battery and electronic components of the headset. The main body and the speaker are electrically connected via a flexible printed circuit board (FPC) for signal transmission. FPCs are typically encapsulated and protected by a rubber sleeve. However, encapsulating FPCs can lead to misalignment and damage, as FPCs are too soft and difficult to shape. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a Bluetooth ear hook integrally molded from silicone, plastic and FPC, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art, such as easy deviation and damage during FPC overmolding, and the difficulty in shaping FPC due to its softness.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a Bluetooth ear hook integrally molded from silicone, plastic, and FPC, comprising an ear hook, with a Bluetooth headset body and a speaker respectively fixedly connected to both ends of the ear hook. The ear hook includes an ear hook body, with a fixing plate fixedly connected to one end of the ear hook body and a connecting seat fixedly connected to the other end of the ear hook body. An FPC is fixedly disposed inside the ear hook body, and a rubber sleeve is fitted on the surface of the fixing plate. The ear hook body and the FPC are an integral structure, the fixing plate and the rubber sleeve are an integral structure, and the rubber sleeve, the ear hook body, and the connecting seat are an integral structure.

[0005] Preferably, the fixing plate is made of plastic.

[0006] Preferably, the rubber sleeve, ear hook body, and connector are all made of silicone.

[0007] Preferably, the fixing plate is fixedly installed inside the Bluetooth headset body, and the connecting seat is fixedly installed on the speaker, so as to realize the connection between the ear hook and the Bluetooth headset body and the speaker.

[0008] Preferably, a reinforcing rib is fixedly provided on the inner side of the fixing plate. The reinforcing rib is made of plastic, and the fixing plate and the reinforcing rib are integrally cast to enhance the structural strength of the fixing plate.

[0009] Preferably, the speaker is fitted with a detachable ear cap. When the earphone is in use, the ear cap is inserted into the ear canal to secure the Bluetooth earphone, prevent the speaker from falling out, and protect the ear canal from friction between the speaker and the ear canal skin, thus preventing skin damage.

[0010] Preferably, one end of the FPC extends into the fixed plate, and the other end of the FPC passes through the connector, connecting the speaker and the Bluetooth headset body for voice signal transmission.

[0011] Compared with the existing technology, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: a set of Bluetooth ear hooks is formed by integral molding of silicone, plastic and FPC, which solves the difficulties of FPC being prone to deviation and damage and difficult to shape.
