Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of VR devices, specifically relating to a VR headset. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, existing VR devices are developing towards lightweight and convenient designs. For example, VR glasses typically include a base, temples, a hinge connecting the base and temples, and lenses mounted on the base. The temples are opened or folded relative to the base by rotating the hinge, and a switch is provided on the base or temples for turning the VR glasses on or off.
[0003] However, in actual use, whether folded or unfolded, the existing VR glasses' switch components are exposed and cannot be hidden. This makes it easy for users to accidentally operate them when wearing or storing them. In addition, the exposed switch components affect the overall aesthetics of the VR glasses and the user experience. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide an improved VR glasses.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0006] A VR headset includes a base, temples, hinges, and a control module with an operating end. The base has first connecting ends on both sides, and the temples have second connecting ends rotatably connected to the corresponding first connecting ends via hinges. An installation space is formed between the first and second connecting ends on either side. The operating end of the control module is disposed in the installation space. The rotation center line of the hinge is located in the installation space. The temples are rotatably disposed from the second connecting ends around the rotation center line. As the temples unfold relative to the base, the operating end of the control module is exposed from the installation space. As the temples fold relative to the base, the first and / or second connecting ends obstruct the operating end of the control module.
[0007] According to a specific embodiment and preferred aspect of this utility model, a first clearance groove is formed on the inner side of the first connecting end, and a second clearance groove communicating with the first clearance groove is formed on the inner side of the second connecting end, wherein an installation space is formed between the first clearance groove and the second clearance groove. Here, the operating end of the control module is located on the inner side of the temple of the lens mount, thereby preventing accidental touches even during use, and simultaneously concealing the operating end, resulting in a simpler appearance for the VR glasses.
[0008] Preferably, the end faces of the first connecting end and the second connecting end are open and communicate with the corresponding first and second clearance grooves. When the temple is unfolded relative to the mirror base, the first and second clearance grooves are spliced together from the end faces. Here, the structure is simple and easy to process and implement.
[0009] Preferably, the operating end has a circular cross-section. When the temple is unfolded relative to the base, a circular groove matching the operating end is formed between the first and second clearance grooves. Here, in the open state, the gap between the operating end and the circular groove is small, reducing the probability of external dust entering, and the rounded shape increases aesthetics.
[0010] Preferably, when the temple is folded relative to the base, the second connecting end rotates around the rotation center line to the inside of the operating end, and the opening of the first connecting end intersects with the opening of the second connecting end. This provides omnidirectional shielding of the operating end in three-dimensional space, preventing accidental operation.
[0011] According to another specific embodiment and preferred aspect of the present invention, the hinge includes a first connecting seat fixed at a first connecting end and a second connecting seat fixed at a second connecting end. One of the first connecting seat and the second connecting seat has a guide groove formed on it, and the other of the two is provided with a movable block that reciprocates along the guide groove. The guide groove extends in an arc shape with respect to the rotation center line.
[0012] Preferably, there are two guide grooves distributed on opposite sides of the first connecting seat. The first connecting seat also has an insertion groove that connects the two guide grooves. Movable blocks are provided on opposite sides of the second connecting seat. The second connecting seat is inserted into the insertion groove and inserted into the guide groove from the movable blocks on both sides.
[0013] Preferably, the guide groove has an inner arc-shaped guide wall and an outer arc-shaped guide wall extending around the rotation center line, and the inner and outer end faces of the movable block are respectively fitted to the inner arc-shaped guide wall and the outer arc-shaped guide wall. This increases the stability of the hinge rotation and improves the rotational feel.
[0014] Preferably, the hinge further includes an elastic element disposed on the first connecting seat and located at one end of the guide groove. As the temple unfolds relative to the lens base, the second connecting seat gradually compresses the elastic element. This increases the resilience of the temple when it opens.
[0015] In addition, the elastic element includes a fixed post fixed on the first connecting seat, a movable block slidably connected on the first connecting seat, a spring sleeved on the fixed post and abutting between the movable block and the first connecting seat from both ends, and an abutting part formed on the second connecting seat that can abut or release the movable block.
[0016] Due to the implementation of the above technical solution, this utility model has the following advantages compared with the prior art:
[0017] In existing VR glasses, whether folded or unfolded, the switching components are exposed and cannot be hidden. This easily leads to accidental operation when wearing or storing the glasses. Furthermore, the exposed switching components affect the overall aesthetics of the VR glasses and the user experience. This application addresses these shortcomings by redesigning the VR glasses' structure. The new design creates an installation space between the first and second connecting ends of the frame and temples, which are connected by a hinge. The hinge's rotation center line is kept within this space, allowing the control module's operating end to be installed. Therefore, when in use, as the temples unfold relative to the frame, the control module's operating end is exposed from the installation space, facilitating user operation. When folded away or not in use, the temples fold relative to the frame, and the first and / or second connecting ends shield the control module's operating end, effectively preventing accidental activation. Therefore, compared with the prior art, this utility model forms an installation space between the rotating connection end of the frame and the temple, and sets the operation end of the control module in the installation space. As the temple unfolds or folds relative to the frame, the operation end is exposed or covered, which makes it convenient for users to unfold and use. When folded for storage, the operation end can be prevented from being accidentally touched, and the appearance is simple and improves aesthetics. Attached Figure Description

[0031] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the VR glasses in this embodiment include a base 1, temples 2, hinges 3, and a control module with an operation terminal d0.
[0032] Specifically, the lens mount 1 is used to install the lens, and any conventional lens mount can be used, without any restrictions; there are two temples 2, which are rotatably connected to opposite sides of the lens mount 1, and can be unfolded or folded relative to the lens mount 1.
[0033] In this example, the base 1 has a first connecting end d1 located on both sides, and the two temples 2 have a second connecting end d2 that is rotatably connected to the corresponding first connecting end d1 via a hinge 3. The temples 2 rotate from the second connecting end d2 about the rotation center line of the hinge 3 to unfold or fold relative to the base 1.
[0034] Simultaneously, an installation space q is formed between the first connecting end d1 and the second connecting end d2 on either side. The rotation center line of the hinge 3 is located in the installation space q. The operating end d0 of the control module is located in the installation space q. As the temple 2 unfolds relative to the base 1, the operating end d0 of the control module is exposed from the installation space q. As the temple 2 folds relative to the base 1, the first connecting end d1 and / or the second connecting end d2 obstruct the operating end d0 of the control module. The control module is installed within the internal space of the base 1 and the temple 2, which is a conventional technique and will not be elaborated here.
[0035] For ease of implementation, a first clearance groove c1 is formed on the inner side of the first connecting end d1, and a second clearance groove c2, communicating with the first clearance groove c1, is formed on the inner side of the second connecting end d2, wherein an installation space q is formed between the first clearance groove c1 and the second clearance groove c2. Here, the operating end of the control module is located on the inner side of the temple of the lens mount, thus preventing accidental touches even during use and simultaneously concealing the operating end, resulting in a cleaner appearance for the VR glasses.
[0036] In some specific embodiments, the end faces of the first connecting end d1 and the second connecting end d2 are respectively open and correspondingly connected to the first clearance groove c1 and the second clearance groove c2. When the temple 2 is unfolded relative to the base 1, the first clearance groove c1 and the second clearance groove c2 are spliced from the end faces. The cross-section of the operating end d0 is circular. When the temple 2 is unfolded relative to the base 1, a circular groove matching the operating end d0 is formed between the first clearance groove c1 and the second clearance groove c2. Here, in the open state, the gap formed between the operating end and the circular groove is small, reducing the probability of external dust entering, and the rounded shape increases aesthetics.
[0037] When the temple 2 is folded relative to the base 1, the second connecting end d2 rotates around the rotation center line to the inside of the operating end d0, and the opening of the end face of the first connecting end d1 intersects with the opening of the second connecting end d2. This provides omnidirectional shielding of the operating end in three-dimensional space, preventing accidental operation.
[0038] In this example, the hinge 3 includes a first connecting seat 31 fixed to the first connecting end d1, a second connecting seat 32 fixed to the second connecting end d2, and an elastic element 33. One of the first connecting seat 31 and the second connecting seat 32 has a guide groove c3, and the other has a movable block k that reciprocates along the guide groove c3. The guide groove c3 extends in an arc shape with the rotation center line as a reference.
[0039] In some specific embodiments, there are two guide grooves c3 and they are distributed on opposite sides of the first connecting seat 31. The first connecting seat 31 is also formed with an insertion groove c4 that connects the two guide grooves c3. The two opposite sides of the second connecting seat 32 are respectively provided with movable blocks k. The second connecting seat 32 is inserted into the insertion groove c4 and inserted into the guide groove c3 from the movable blocks k on both sides.
[0040] Meanwhile, the guide groove c3 has an inner arc-shaped guide wall m1 and an outer arc-shaped guide wall m2 extending around the rotation center line, respectively. The inner and outer end faces of the movable block k are respectively fitted to the inner arc-shaped guide wall m1 and the outer arc-shaped guide wall m2. This increases the stability of the hinge rotation and improves the rotational feel.
[0041] Furthermore, the elastic element 33 is disposed on the first connecting seat 31 and located at one end of the guide groove c3. As the temple 2 unfolds relative to the base 1, the second connecting seat 32 gradually compresses the elastic element 33. This increases the resilience when the temple is opened.
[0042] In some specific embodiments, the elastic element 33 includes a fixed post 330 fixed on the first connecting seat 31, a movable block 331 slidably connected on the first connecting seat 31, a spring 332 sleeved on the fixed post 330 and abutting between the movable block 331 and the first connecting seat 31 from both ends, and an abutting portion 320 formed on the second connecting seat 32 that can abut or release the movable block 331.
[0043] In summary, by adopting this VR glasses, an installation space is formed between the first and second connecting ends, which are rotatably connected by a hinge between the base and the temples. The rotation center line of the hinge is kept within the installation space, and the operating end of the control module is installed within the installation space. Therefore, when in use, as the temples unfold relative to the base, the operating end of the control module is exposed from the installation space, making it convenient for the user to operate. When stored or not in use, as the temples fold relative to the base, the operating end of the control module is blocked by the first and / or second connecting ends, effectively preventing accidental touches. Therefore, compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages: First, by forming an installation space between the rotating connection ends of the frame and the temple, and placing the operating end of the control module within the installation space, the operating end is exposed or covered as the temple unfolds or folds relative to the frame, thus facilitating user use. When folded for storage, it prevents accidental touches of the operating end and has a simple appearance, enhancing aesthetics. Second, by placing the operating end of the control module inside the frame and temple, accidental touches are prevented even during use, while the operating end is hidden, resulting in a simpler appearance for the VR glasses. Third, in the open state, the gap between the operating end and the circular groove is small, reducing the probability of external dust entering, and the rounded shape enhances aesthetics. Fourth, it provides all-around coverage of the operating end in three-dimensional space, preventing accidental operation.
[0044] The present utility model has been described in detail above, with the aim of enabling those skilled in the art to understand its contents and implement it. However, this description should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present utility model. All equivalent changes or modifications made in accordance with the spirit and essence of the present utility model should be included within the scope of protection of the present utility model.
