Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of acoustic technology, and more particularly to a wearing structure and headphones. Background Technology
[0002] With the increasing popularity of electronic terminal technology and products, headphones have become a standard product in people's daily lives. They can be used with electronic devices such as mobile phones and computers. The use of headphones is gradually entering more and more daily life and work scenarios, providing users with convenient listening while also bringing various auditory experiences. Based on the common wearing methods of headphones on the market today, headphones are mainly divided into the following two types: In-ear headphones are the most common type of headphones. However, this type of headphone is supported by inserting ear tips into the ear canal. The disadvantage of this is that wearing them for a long time may cause ear fatigue or discomfort, which may be uncomfortable for some users.
[0003] Open-back headphones have also become increasingly popular in recent years. These headphones are typically secured to the ear via hooks or suspension structures, avoiding direct insertion into the ear canal. While this structure primarily provides support from the outside of the ear, it is not very stable when worn and can easily loosen or fall out during exercise or activity. Utility Model Content
[0004] This application discloses a wearing structure and headphones. The wearing structure and the sound transmission hole are located outside the ear canal, which can effectively protect the user's hearing from damage and is not easy to cause discomfort even after wearing for a long time. Furthermore, the wearing structure can be well fixed on the user's auricle through two-point support, which helps to make the headphones with this wearing structure have better stability when worn.

The wearing structure is connected to the earphone body through the sound transmission channel, and the sound transmission hole is connected to the earphone body through the sound transmission channel, so that the sound emitted by the transducer can be transmitted to the vicinity of the ear canal opening.
[0018] Compared with the prior art, the wearing structure and headphones provided in this application have the following advantages: The wearing structure includes a first support part and a second support part connected thereto. When the wearing structure is in the wearing state (i.e., the user is wearing the headphones), the first support part deforms under force to fit and lock into the concha cavity of the auricle, and the second support part deforms under force to lock into the cymba conchae of the auricle. That is, the first support part and the second support part work together to fix the wearing structure on the auricle. The wearing structure can be well fixed on the user's auricle with such two-point support, effectively improving the stability of the headphones. It is not easy to loosen or fall off during sports or activities. At the same time, the first support part and the second support part, which can deform under force, can adapt to auricles of different sizes and shapes, that is, it can be used by different people, improving the versatility of the wearing structure.
[0019] Furthermore, the first support and / or the second support have through-holes. When in the aforementioned state, the wearing structure is located outside the ear canal. Compared with in-ear headphones in related technologies, the wearing structure of this application does not directly insert into the user's external ear canal from the ear canal opening, and the through-hole does not directly enter the external ear canal. This can effectively protect the user's hearing from damage, and it is not easy to cause discomfort when worn for a long time. Attached Figure Description

[0024] In the description and claims of this application and the foregoing drawings, when an element is referred to as "fixed to," "mounted to," "set on," or "connected to" another element, it may be directly or indirectly located on that other element. For example, when an element is referred to as "connected to" another element, it may be directly or indirectly connected to that other element.
[0025] Furthermore, the reference to "embodiment" herein means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.
[0026] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of an exemplary auricle according to some embodiments of this specification. Figure 1As shown, the auricle 100 may include an ear canal opening 101, a concha cavity 102, a cymba conchae 103, a triangular fossa 104, an antihelix 105, a scaphoid fossa 106, an helix 107, an earlobe 108, and a crus of the helix 109. It should be noted that, for ease of description, in this embodiment, the upper crus 1011 and lower crus 1012 of the antihelix, as well as the antihelix 105, are collectively referred to as the antihelix region. In some embodiments, the stability of headphone wearing can be achieved by using one or more parts of the auricle 100 to support the headphones. In some embodiments, the ear canal opening 101, the concha cavity 102, the cymba conchae 103, the triangular fossa 104, etc., have a certain depth and volume in three-dimensional space, which can be used to meet the wearing requirements of headphones. For example, headphones (e.g., in-ear headphones) can be worn in the ear canal opening 101. In some embodiments, headphones can be worn using other parts of the auricle 100 besides the ear canal opening 101. For example, the headphones can be worn using parts such as the cymba conchae 103, triangular fossa 104, antihelix 105, scaphoid 106, or helix 107, or combinations thereof. In some embodiments, to improve the comfort and reliability of the headphones, parts such as the user's earlobe 108 can also be used. By using parts of the auricle 100 other than the ear canal opening 101 to achieve headphone wearing and sound propagation, the user's ear canal opening 101 can be "liberated". When the user wears headphones (open-back headphones), the headphones do not block the user's ear canal opening 101, and the user can receive both sound from the headphones and sound from the environment (e.g., horns, car bells, surrounding voices, traffic signals, etc.), thereby reducing the probability of traffic accidents. In some embodiments, the headphones can be designed to fit the auricle 100 according to its structure, so that the sound-producing part of the headphones can be worn at different positions on the auricle. For example, when the headphones are open-back headphones, they may include a suspension structure (e.g., a wearing structure) and a sound-producing part, which is physically connected to the suspension structure. The suspension structure may be adapted to the shape of the auricle to place the entire or part of the auricle's sound-producing part on the front side of the helix 109 (e.g., Figure 1 The area J enclosed by the dotted line. For example, when a user wears open-back headphones, the entire or partial structure of the sound-producing part can contact the upper part of the ear canal opening 101 (e.g., the location of one or more parts such as the helix crus 109, cymba conchae 103, triangular fossa 104, antihelix 105, scaphoid 106, and helix 107). For yet another example, when a user wears open-back headphones, the entire or partial structure of the sound-producing part can be located within the cavity formed by one or more parts of the auricle (e.g., the conchae cavity 102, cymba conchae 103, triangular fossa 104, etc.). Figure 1The region M1, enclosed by the dotted line, includes at least the cymba conchae 103 and the triangular fossa 104, and the region M2, which includes at least the cavum conchae 102. Individual differences may exist among users, resulting in variations in the shape, size, and other dimensions of the auricle. For ease of description and understanding, unless otherwise specified, this specification will primarily use an auricle model with a "standard" shape and size as a reference to further describe how the headphones in different embodiments are worn on this auricle model.
[0027] The description of the auricle 100 above is for illustrative purposes only and is not intended to limit the scope of this application. Those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications based on the description in this application. For example, a portion of the headphone structure may cover part or all of the ear canal opening 101. These changes and modifications are still within the protection scope of this application.
[0028] It should also be noted that the headphones may include, but are not limited to, air conduction headphones and bone conduction headphones. Specifically, in some embodiments, the headphones may be combined with products such as glasses, headphones, head-mounted displays, and AR / VR headsets.
[0029] This application provides a wearing structure 210, such as Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the wearing structure 210 can be applied to the earphone 200, and the wearing structure 210 includes: The wearing structure 210 includes a first support part 10 and a second support part 20 that can be connected to the first support part 10. The two can be arranged horizontally or have an inclined angle to each other.
[0030] The first support portion 10 and / or the second support portion 20 may be provided with a sound transmission hole 11. Optionally, the sound transmission hole 11 may be provided on the first support portion 10, or on the second support portion 20, or at the connection between the first support portion 10 and the second support portion 20.
[0031] When the earphone 200 is in the wearing state (mainly achieved by the wearing structure 210), the deformation characteristics of the first support part itself allow it to adapt to the force and the different contours of the concha 102 when it is pressed against the ear canal 102, ensuring that the first support part 10 can stably and snugly press against the ear canal 102. Specifically, combined with Figure 3 As shown, when the first support 10 is in a free state (i.e., not compressed), point m is the unformed shape of the first support 10, and no deformation occurs at this time; while when it is in the wearing state (i.e. compressed), the part of the first support 10 compressed by the concha 102 will deform according to the shape of the concha 102 at that point, see point m', and generate a force opposite to the direction of the force and able to abut against the concha 102.
[0032] The second support portion 20 can be locked into the concha 103 of the auricle 100. The second support portion 20 itself can have deformation characteristics. When it is locked into the concha 103, it can adaptively deform according to the force and the different contour curvature of the user's concha 102 to adapt to ensure the stability of the second support portion 20 in the concha 103. That is, the first support portion 10 and the second support portion 20 cooperate to fix the wearing structure 210 on the auricle 100, so that the earphone 200 using the wearing structure 210 is worn on the auricle 100, effectively improving the stability of the earphone 200, and it is not easy to loosen or fall off during sports or activities. Specifically, combined with Figure 3 As shown, when the second support 20 is in a free state (i.e., not compressed), point n is the unformed state of the second support 20, and no deformation occurs at this time; however, when it is in the wearing state (i.e. compressed), the part of the second support 20 compressed by the concha 103 will deform according to the shape of the concha 103 at that point, see point n', and generate a force opposite to the direction of the force and able to abut against the concha 103.
[0033] Based on the above structure, the sound transmission hole 11 is arranged so that the sound emitted by the transducer inside the earphone 200 can be conducted to the outside of the earphone 200 through the sound transmission hole 11. When the earphone 200 is in the wearing state, the first support part 10 can be located outside the ear canal opening 101 of the auricle 100. It can be understood that since the first support part of the wearing structure 210 is located outside the ear canal opening 101 when the earphone 200 is in the wearing state, when the sound emitted by the transducer is conducted to the outside of the earphone 200 through the sound transmission hole 11 on the first support part 10, it first reaches the vicinity of the ear canal opening 101, and then enters the ear canal from the ear canal opening 101. That is, the wearing structure 210 avoids direct insertion into the ear canal, and thus also avoids the sound emitted by the earphone 200 directly reaching the ear canal, which can effectively protect the user's hearing from damage, and is not easy to cause discomfort even after wearing for a long time.
[0034] In summary, compared with existing technologies, the wearing structure 210 has at least the following beneficial effects: The first support portion 10 of the wearing structure 210 deforms under force to fit and engage within the concha 102 of the auricle 100, while the second support portion 20 deforms under force to engage within the cymba concha 103 of the auricle 100. Together, they ensure that the earphone 200 using this wearing structure 210 is worn on the auricle 100, effectively improving the stability of the earphone 200 and preventing it from easily loosening or falling off during exercise or activity. Furthermore, the deformable first and second support portions can adapt to auricles of different sizes and shapes, thus accommodating different users and improving the versatility of the wearing structure.
[0035] Furthermore, the first support portion 10 and / or the second support portion 20 are provided with a sound transmission hole 11. When in the aforementioned state, the wearing structure 210 is located outside the ear canal opening 101. Compared with in-ear headphones in the related technology, the wearing structure 210 of this application will not be directly inserted into the user's external ear canal from the ear canal opening 101, and the sound transmission hole 11 will not directly enter the external ear canal. This can effectively protect the user's hearing from damage, and it is not easy to cause discomfort when worn for a long time.
[0036] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the following will be discussed in conjunction with the appendix. Figures 1 to 8 The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described.
[0037] In some embodiments, as a first arrangement of the first support portion 10 and the second support portion 20, such as Figure 4 As shown, the first support portion 10 may include a first arc-shaped portion 12 and a second arc-shaped portion 13, the opening ends of which may be arranged facing each other and connected end to end. The arc of the first arc-shaped portion 12 and the second arc-shaped portion 13 differs, so that the first support portion 10 can form an irregular ring structure and surround a hollow structure. The first support portion 10 mainly abuts against the concha cavity 102 through the first arc-shaped portion 12. The side of the second arc-shaped portion 13 facing away from the first arc-shaped portion 12 may be connected to the second support portion 20. The side of the second arc-shaped portion 13 facing the opening end may extend toward the first arc-shaped portion 12 to form a connecting portion 14. The sound transmission hole 11 may be provided in the connecting portion 14 so that the sound transmission hole 11 can be arranged close to the space between the first support portion 10 and the second support portion 20. When the wearing structure 210 is applied to the earphone 200, the connecting portion 14 can also play a role in improving rigidity and strength.
[0038] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, when the wearing structure 210 is in the wearing state, the distance between the side of the connecting part 14 facing the ear canal opening 101 and the ear canal opening 101 can be greater than the distance between the side of the first arc-shaped part 12 and the second arc-shaped part 13 facing the ear canal opening 101 and the ear canal opening 101, so that there is a gap between the sound transmission hole 11 and the ear canal opening 101, which allows the user to hear the sound of the headphones 200 clearly while also easily hearing the surrounding environmental sounds.
[0039] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the first arc-shaped portion 12 and the second arc-shaped portion 13 can be integrally molded structures. Furthermore, the first support portion 10 and the second support portion 20 can also be integrally molded structures. Integral molding structures can effectively reduce manufacturing costs.
[0040] In other embodiments, the first arcuate portion 12 and the second arcuate portion 13 may also be separate structures.
[0041] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, each connection point between the first arc-shaped portion 12 and the second arc-shaped portion 13 can be rounded to enhance the aesthetics of the wearing structure 210.
[0042] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, one end of the second support portion 20 can be connected to the second arcuate portion 13, and the other end can extend away from the second arcuate portion 13 and be hook-shaped to fit the contour shape of the ear armor 103. Furthermore, the width of the second support portion 20 can gradually decrease along its curvature direction.
[0043] In some embodiments, the thickness of the second support portion 20 may be less than the thickness of the first support portion 10, so that the elasticity of the second support portion 20 is slightly higher than that of the first support portion 10.
[0044] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the first support part 10 and / or the second support part 20 may be provided with weight reduction holes 21, which can not only realize the miniaturization and weight reduction of the overall structure, but also increase the deformation capacity of the first support part 10 and the second support part 20, and further optimize the comfort of the first support part 10 and the second support part 20 when they are locked in the ear armor boat 103.
[0045] Optionally, the weight reduction hole 21 may be provided only on the first support part 10, or the weight reduction hole 21 may be provided only on the second support part 20; of course, the weight reduction hole 21 may be provided on both the first support part 10 and the second support part 20 at the same time.
[0046] In some embodiments, when the first support portion 10 is provided with a weight reduction hole 21, the shape of the weight reduction hole 21 in the cross-section is at least partially the same as the shape of the first support portion 10 in the cross-section, and the cross-section is the intersection of the length direction and the width direction of the first support portion 10.
[0047] This makes the wall thickness of the first support part 10 relatively uniform, which helps to ensure the structural strength of the first support part 10 itself. At the same time, it also makes the deformation capacity of the first support part 10 relatively uniform when subjected to force deformation, further improving the adaptability of the first support part 10.
[0048] Optionally, the shape of the weight-reducing hole 21 in cross-section being at least partially the same as the shape of the first support portion 10 in cross-section means that the shape of the weight-reducing hole 21 in cross-section can be partially the same as the shape of the first support portion 10 in cross-section, or the shape of the weight-reducing hole 21 in cross-section can be completely the same as the shape of the first support portion 10 in cross-section.
[0049] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4As shown, when the second support 20 is provided with a weight reduction hole 21, the shape of the weight reduction hole 21 in the cross-section is at least partially the same as the shape of the second support 20 in the cross-section, and the cross-section is the intersection of the length direction and the width direction of the second support 20.
[0050] This allows the wall thickness of the second support portion 20 to be relatively uniform, which helps to ensure the structural strength of the second support portion 20 itself. At the same time, it also makes the deformation capacity of the second support portion 20 relatively uniform when subjected to force deformation, further improving the adaptability of the second support portion 20.
[0051] Optionally, the shape of the weight-reducing hole 21 in cross-section being at least partially the same as the shape of the second support portion 20 in cross-section means that the shape of the weight-reducing hole 21 in cross-section can be partially the same as the shape of the second support portion 20 in cross-section, or the shape of the weight-reducing hole 21 in cross-section can be completely the same as the shape of the second support portion 20 in cross-section.
[0052] In some embodiments, such as Figure 4 As shown, the curvature of the first arc-shaped portion 12 can be greater than the curvature of the second arc-shaped portion 13. Understandably, since the first arc-shaped portion 12 needs to abut against the concha 102, its curvature needs to be larger to accommodate the size of the concha 102; since the second support portion 20 is hook-shaped, the curvature of the second arc-shaped portion 13 can be smaller to allow for a smooth transition with the second support portion 20. Of course, the curvature of the first arc-shaped portion 12 can also be equal to or smaller than the curvature of the second arc-shaped portion 13, depending on the specific design requirements.
[0053] In some embodiments, as a second arrangement of the first support portion 10 and the second support portion 20, such as Figure 5 As shown, the first support portion 10 may be in the shape of a hook or a sheet, and the second support portion 20 extends in a direction opposite to the first support portion 10 and is in the shape of a hook, and the length of the second support portion 20 may be greater than the length of the first support portion 10.
[0054] In some embodiments, as a third arrangement of the first support portion 10 and the second support portion 20, such as Figure 6 As shown, the first support portion 10 and the second support portion 20 can be connected end to end to form a ring structure, and the length of the second support portion 20 can be greater than the length of the first support portion 10. Specifically, the ring structure can be an oval ring, and the arc of the end of the first support portion 10 away from the second support portion 20 can be greater than the arc of the end of the second support portion 20 away from the first support portion 10. Of course, the arcs of the two ends of the first support portion 10 and the second support portion 20 that are opposite to each other can also be set to be the same; or the arc of that end of the first support portion 10 can be smaller than the arc of that end of the second support portion 20.
[0055] Figure 7 This is a front view of the earphone 200 with the wearing structure 210 of this application in a wearing state, based on the side of the first support portion 10 facing the ear canal opening 101. Based on this, for the convenience of the following description of the corresponding embodiments, an XY plane coordinate system is established on the aforementioned plane, with the first horizontal direction as the X-axis direction and the first vertical direction as the Y-axis direction. It is understood that the aforementioned coordinate system setting can be flexibly set according to actual needs and is not limited to... Figure 7 The structure can be applied to, for example Figure 5 and Figure 6 Other variations not shown in this specification are not specifically limited herein.
[0056] In some embodiments, such as Figure 7 As shown, the wearing structure 210 may include the following design parameters: Along the first horizontal direction (X-axis direction), the distance a between the longitudinal centerline and the endpoint of the first arc-shaped part 12; Along the first vertical direction (Y-axis direction), the distance b between the horizontal centerline and the lower end point of the first arc-shaped part 12; Along the first vertical direction (Y-axis direction), the distance c between the horizontal centerline and the upper end point of the second support 20; The distance d between the longitudinal centerline and the endpoint of the second support 20 along the first horizontal direction (X-axis direction); The first horizontal direction (X-axis direction) and the first vertical direction (Y-axis direction) can both be used as references when the wearing structure 210 is in the wearing state: the first vertical direction (X-axis direction) can be set as the height direction of the auricle 100, and the first horizontal direction (X-axis direction) can be set as a direction that is perpendicular to the first vertical direction (Y-axis direction) and coplanar with the side of the wearing structure 210 facing the auricle 100; The longitudinal centerline can be set to pass through the center O of the sound transmission hole 11 and be parallel to the first vertical direction (Y-axis direction), and the transverse centerline can be set to pass through the center O and be parallel to the first horizontal direction (X-axis direction).
[0057] Understandably, the above design parameters are set in a coordinated manner, each with a set range of values, and they influence and coordinate with each other so that the wearing structure 210 can fit, securely and comfortably fit into the concha 102 and the cymba concha 103.
[0058] In some embodiments, the range of a can be 7mm~15mm; the range of b can be 3mm~12mm; the range of c can be 10mm~20mm; and the range of d can be 10mm~20mm. Understandably, when a, b, c, and d are simultaneously within their respective numerical ranges, the wearing structure 210 as a whole has a relatively adaptable deformation capability. When the wearing structure 210 is in the wearing state, the first support portion 10 can adaptively deform according to the force applied and the different contours of the user's concha 102 to adapt, and can be securely and comfortably locked within the concha 102. Simultaneously, the second support portion 20 can adaptively deform and bend according to the force applied and the different contours of the user's cymba concha 103 to adapt, and can be securely and comfortably locked within the cymba concha 103.
[0059] Preferably, at least one of a, b, c, and d satisfies the following corresponding range: The range of a is 8mm~12mm; the range of b is 5mm~8mm; the range of c is 15mm~18mm; the range of d is 15mm~18mm.
[0060] In some specific embodiments, the value of a can be 9mm; the value of b can be 6mm; the value of c can be 15mm; and the value of d can be 15mm. The wearing structure 210 produced based on the aforementioned specific parameters can be securely and comfortably fitted into the user's auricle 100.
[0061] Understandably, based on the numerical ranges of the aforementioned design parameters, the latter numerical ranges represent further optimization. When at least one of a, b, c, and d falls within the corresponding numerical range of the latter, the overall adaptability of the wearing structure 210 is further improved. Thus, when the wearing structure 210 is in the wearing state, the first support portion 10 can adaptively deform according to the force applied and the different contours of the user's concha 102 to adapt, and can be further securely and comfortably locked within the concha 102; simultaneously, the second support portion 20 can adaptively deform and bend according to the force applied and the different contour curvatures of the user's sclera 103 to adapt, and can be further securely and comfortably locked within the sclera 103. The more items (a, b, c, d) that satisfy the corresponding numerical ranges of the latter, the higher the adaptability of the wearing structure 210.
[0062] Figure 8 for Figure 7The cross-sectional view at point BB is specifically the cross-section of the first arc-shaped portion 12. Based on this, for the convenience of the description of the corresponding embodiment below, an X'Y' plane coordinate system is established on the aforementioned cross-section, with the horizontal plane being the X'Y' plane (the cross-section is located on the horizontal plane), the second horizontal direction being the X' axis direction, and the second vertical direction being the Y' axis direction. It is understood that the aforementioned coordinate system settings can be flexibly configured according to actual needs, and are not specifically limited here.
[0063] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 As shown, based on the cross-section of the first arcuate portion 12 in the horizontal plane (X'Y' plane), the cross-section may include an upper end face and a lower end face respectively disposed in the second vertical direction (Y' axis direction). Specifically, the upper end face of the cross-section may be set as the side of the first arcuate portion 12 facing the opening end, and the lower end face of the cross-section may be set as the side of the first arcuate portion 12 away from the opening end. The lower end face may be planar, and the upper end face may be an arcuate surface concave to the lower end face. Along the second horizontal direction (X' axis direction), the two ends of the lower end face may be bent and extended to the two ends of the upper end face respectively to connect with the upper end face and form a protrusion.
[0064] The horizontal plane (X'Y' plane) can be set as the intersection of the first horizontal direction (X-axis direction) and the vertical direction. The vertical direction can be set as the direction perpendicular to the intersection of the first horizontal direction (X-axis direction) and the first vertical direction (Y-axis direction). The second horizontal direction (Y' axis direction) can be set as the width direction of the cross-section on the horizontal plane (X'Y' plane). Of course, the cross-section of the first arc-shaped portion 12 can also be set to other shapes, which will not be elaborated on here.
[0065] In some embodiments, such as Figure 8 As shown, the wearing structure 210 may also include the following design parameters: The distance e between the protrusion and the lower end face along the second vertical direction (Y' axis direction); Along the second vertical direction (Y' axis direction), the distance e1 between the lowest point of the upper end face and the lower end face; Along the second horizontal direction (X' axis direction), the distance e2 between the two ends of the cross section; The second vertical direction (Y' axis direction) can be set as the height direction of the cross section on the horizontal plane (X'Y' plane).
[0066] Understandably, the above design parameters are set in a coordinated manner, each with a set range of values, and they influence and coordinate with each other so that the wearing structure 210 can fit, securely and comfortably fit into the concha 102 and the cymba concha 103.
[0067] In some embodiments, e ranges from 1mm to 5mm; e1 ranges from 0.5*e to 0.8*e; and e2 ranges from 1mm to 7mm. Understandably, when e, e1, and e2 are simultaneously within their respective numerical ranges, the wearing structure 210 as a whole has a relatively adaptable deformation capability and adapts to the contact surface of the concha 102. This allows the first arcuate portion 12 of the first support portion 10 to deform and fit against the contact surface of the concha 102 when the wearing structure 210 is in the wearing state, and to be securely and comfortably abutted within the concha 102.
[0068] Preferably, at least one of e and e2 satisfies the following corresponding range: The range of e is 1.5mm to 2mm; the range of e2 is 3mm to 5mm.
[0069] In some specific embodiments, the value of e is 2mm; the value of e1 is 1.2mm; and the value of e2 is 3.5mm. The wearing structure 210 produced based on the aforementioned specific parameters can be very securely and comfortably fitted into the user's auricle 100, and can effectively reduce the presence of the first support 10 in the concha cavity 102.
[0070] Understandably, based on the numerical ranges of the aforementioned design parameters, the latter numerical ranges represent further optimization. When at least one of e and e2 falls within the corresponding numerical range of the latter, the overall deformation of the wearing structure 210 and the fit between the first arcuate portion 12 and the contact surface of the concha 102 are further improved. The more items of e and e2 that satisfy the corresponding numerical ranges of the latter, the higher the overall deformation of the wearing structure 210 and the fit between the first arcuate portion 12 and the contact surface of the concha 102.
[0071] In some embodiments, the shape of the first arcuate portion 12 is not limited to Figure 8 As shown, there are many other variations. Combined with... Figure 9 The figure shows various alternatives to the cross-section of the first arc-shaped portion 12 at BB (essentially alternatives to the shape of the first arc-shaped portion 12), including but not limited to the following: As shown in Figure (a), the upper and lower surfaces of the first arc-shaped portion 12 can both be horizontally arranged; as shown in Figure (b), the upper and lower surfaces of the first arc-shaped portion 12 protrude in opposite directions to make the cross-section elliptical; as shown in Figure (c), the upper and lower surfaces of the first arc-shaped portion 12 are slightly concave downwards, giving the overall shape a downward arched shape; as shown in Figure (d), the upper surface of the first arc-shaped portion 12 is concave towards the lower surface, and the lower surface is concave towards the upper surface, giving the overall shape a bow-like shape; as shown in Figure (e), the upper surface of the first arc-shaped portion 12 is horizontally arranged, and the middle of the lower surface protrudes downwards, giving the overall shape an isosceles inverted triangle.
[0072] Based on the aforementioned wearing structure 210, such as Figure 2 As shown, this application embodiment also provides an earphone 200, wherein the earphone 200 may include an earphone body 220 with a built-in transducer (not shown in the figure), a sound transmission channel 230 and the above-mentioned wearing structure 210.
[0073] Specifically, a transducer can convert electrical energy into mechanical energy through different physical principles, thereby driving the diaphragm to vibrate and produce sound. Optionally, the transducer can be a moving-coil transducer, a capacitive transducer, or a piezoelectric transducer, etc.
[0074] In addition, the headset body 220 also includes, but is not limited to: a Bluetooth chip, responsible for wireless connection and signal transmission; an energy storage device, such as a battery or battery pack, to provide power for the headset 200; a microphone for calls and voice input; an indicator light to provide feedback on the status of the headset 200, such as charging status and pairing status; and a charging interface, usually a Type-C interface or a Lightning Dock interface, for charging and data transfer.
[0075] The wearing structure 210 can be connected to the headphone body 220 via the sound transmission channel 230, and the sound transmission hole 11 can be connected to the headphone body 220 via the sound transmission channel 230, so that the sound emitted by the transducer can be transmitted to the vicinity of the ear canal opening 101. The headphone body 220 can be tilted relative to the wearing structure 210 so that when the headphone 200 is in the wearing state, the headphone body 220 can contact the auricle 100 to generate friction, so that the auricle 100 can help support the headphone 200.
[0076] In some embodiments, such as Figure 10 As shown, the sound transmission duct 230 can extend and protrude along the thickness direction of the headphone body 220, and the wearing structure 210 is sleeved on the sound transmission duct 230 through its sound transmission hole 11 to achieve the connection between the wearing structure 210 and the headphone body 220; or, the sound transmission duct 230 can extend and protrude from the first side of the wearing structure 210 along the thickness direction of the headphone body 220, and the headphone body 220 is sleeved on the sound transmission duct 230 through its sound outlet hole (not shown in the figure) to achieve the connection between the wearing structure 210 and the headphone body 220.
[0077] In other embodiments, the sound transmission conduit 230 may also extend in a direction inclined relative to the thickness direction of the earphone body 220.
[0078] In some embodiments, such as Figure 10As shown, the two ends of the sound transmission duct 230 may have a first connecting surface Q1 connected to the headphone body 220 and a second connecting surface Q2 connected to the wearing structure 210, respectively. The first connecting surface Q1 may be inclined relative to the second connecting surface Q2, so that when the wearing structure 210 is installed on the headphone body 220, at least the wearing structure 210 can be inclined relative to the headphone body 220, so that when the headphone 200 is in the wearing state, the headphone body 220 can be inclined toward the earlobe 108 and contact the earlobe 108, and generate a frictional force to assist in supporting the wearing of the headphone 200.

Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the scope of the claims of this application.
