Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of electronic equipment technology, and more particularly to an electronic device. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of technology, Bluetooth headsets and their charging cases are widely used in people's work and daily lives. In these technologies, the main body and hinge of the charging case are generally made of metal for aesthetic and texture purposes, forming a mating relationship between the metal hinge and the metal body. However, since the metal hinge is made of a conductive material, the grounded metal body will conduct the static electricity it receives and accumulates to the metal hinge. This can cause electric shock when users hold the charging case and come into contact with the metal hinge, reducing the safety of using electronic devices and lowering the user experience. Furthermore, when the metal hinge and the metal body are not made of the same metal, the potential difference between the metal hinge and the metal frame can lead to electrolysis, causing corrosion of the metal frame and the metal hinge. This increases the wear rate of the metal casing and the metal hinge, further increasing the maintenance costs of electronic devices and reducing their lifespan. Utility Model Content

[0003] Therefore, this application provides an electronic device that can solve at least some of the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0004] This application provides an electronic device, including:

[0005] A housing, the housing including a metal frame, the metal frame including a body portion and a side frame portion, the side frame portion being mounted on the side periphery of the body portion;

[0006] A circuit board is mounted inside the main body, the circuit board includes a grounding portion, and the metal frame is connected to the grounding portion;

[0007] Insulation part;

[0008] A metal component, wherein the insulating portion is disposed between the metal component and the metal frame, the metal component is fixed to the metal frame by the insulating portion, and the metal component and the metal frame are electrically isolated by the insulating portion.

[0009] In this application, the metal component, distinct from the metal frame, is isolated from the metal frame by an insulating part. This prevents contact between the metal frame and the metal component, thus preventing the metal frame from conducting static electricity to the metal component. This avoids electric shock to the user when using the electronic device due to contact with the metal component, improving the safety of using the electronic device and enhancing the user experience. Furthermore, since the metal frame and the metal component are isolated, regardless of whether they are made of the same metal, there will be no electrolytic corrosion caused by static electricity. This fundamentally reduces the wear rate of the metal frame and the metal component, further reducing the maintenance cost of the electronic device and extending its service life.

Detailed Implementation

[0028] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0029] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 This is a three-dimensional structural diagram of an electronic device 100 provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 2 for Figure 1 An exploded view of an electronic device 100. The electronic device 100 includes a housing 1, a circuit board 2, an insulating part 3, and a metal component 4. The housing 1 includes a metal frame 11, which includes a body part 111 and a side part 112. The side part 112 is mounted on the side periphery of the body part 111. The circuit board 2 is mounted inside the body part 111 and includes a grounding part. The metal frame 11 is connected to the grounding part. The insulating part 3 is disposed between the metal component 4 and the metal frame 11. The metal component 4 is fixed to the metal frame 11 through the insulating part 3, and the metal component 4 and the metal frame 11 are electrically isolated through the insulating part 3.

[0030] Thus, the metal part 4, which is distinct from the metal frame 11, is isolated from the metal frame 11 by the insulating part 3, preventing the metal frame 11 from contacting the metal part 4. This also prevents the metal frame 11 from conducting the static electricity it receives and accumulates to the metal part 4, thus avoiding electric shock to the user when using the electronic device 100 due to contact with the metal part 4. This improves the safety of using the electronic device 100 and enhances the user experience. Furthermore, since the metal frame 11 and the metal part 4 are isolated, regardless of whether the metal frame 11 and the metal part 4 are made of the same metal, there will be no electrolytic corrosion caused by static electricity. This fundamentally reduces the wear rate of the metal frame 11 and the metal part 4, further reducing the maintenance cost of the electronic device 100 and increasing its service life.

[0031] Specifically, the metal frame 11 is electrically connected to the grounding part of the circuit board 2, forming a path with very low impedance. When external static electricity enters the metal frame 11, it will be conducted to the grounding part through this path, and the static electricity will be safely released. When a user touches the metal frame 11, they will not be electrostatically shocked, and there will be no electric shock. However, the metal part 4 is not grounded, so there is no path with low impedance including the metal part 4. Therefore, when the metal frame 11 comes into contact with the metal part 4 and conducts its own static electricity to the metal part 4, the metal part 4, having no path to release static electricity, can only accumulate the static charge on itself, and the potential of the metal part 4 will increase accordingly. When a user touches the metal part 4, they will be electrostatically shocked, resulting in an electric shock.

[0032] In this application, the metal part 4 and the metal frame 11 are isolated by the insulating part 3, thereby preventing the metal frame 11 and the metal part 4 from contacting each other. This also prevents the metal frame 11 from conducting the static electricity it receives and accumulates to the metal part 4, thus avoiding the accumulation of static charge on the metal part 4. When using the electronic device 100, the user will not experience electric shock due to contact with the metal part 4, improving the safety of using the electronic device 100 and enhancing the user experience.

[0033] More specifically, when two different metals (such as aluminum and stainless steel) come into direct contact, if there is humid air or other substances that can act as electrolytes in the surrounding environment, the two metals will form a galvanic cell. The two metals will become the cathode or anode of the galvanic cell, and due to the potential difference, electrons will spontaneously flow from the more reactive metal to the less reactive metal. Consequently, the more reactive metal will undergo an oxidation reaction and be corroded. Therefore, without the insulating part 3, corrosion is very likely to occur when the metal part 4 and the metal frame 11, made of different metal materials, come into contact. However, in this application, the metal part 4 and the metal frame 11 are isolated by the insulating part 3. Therefore, regardless of whether the metal frame 11 and the metal part 4 are made of the same metal, corrosion will not occur, thus fundamentally reducing the wear rate of the metal frame 11 and the metal part 4. Furthermore, this also reduces the maintenance cost of the electronic device 100 and increases its service life.

[0034] In some embodiments, the insulating part 3 is made of insulating materials such as plastic, rubber, or silicone.

[0035] Please see Figure 3 , Figure 3 for Figure 1A schematic diagram of the internal structure of the electronic device 100. The housing 1 also includes an upper housing 12. The metal part 4 is a rotating shaft 5. One end of the metal part 4 is connected to the insulating part 3 so as to be fixedly connected to the metal middle frame 11 through the insulating part 3. The other end of the metal part 4 is fixedly connected to the upper housing 12. The upper housing 12 and the metal middle frame 11 are rotatably connected through the metal part 4.

[0036] Thus, by isolating the metal hinge 5 and the metal frame 11 through the insulating part 3, contact between the metal frame 11 and the hinge 5 can be prevented, thus preventing the metal frame 11 from conducting static electricity to the hinge 5. This avoids electric shock to the user when using the electronic device 100 due to contact with the hinge 5, improving the safety of the electronic device 100. Moreover, since the metal frame 11 and the hinge 5 are isolated, corrosion will not occur regardless of whether the metal frame 11 and the hinge 5 are made of the same metal. This improves the smoothness of the relative rotation between the upper housing 12 and the metal frame 11, preventing jamming due to corrosion of the hinge 5. It also fundamentally reduces the wear rate of the metal frame 11 and the hinge 5, further reducing the maintenance cost of the electronic device 100 and increasing its service life.

[0037] In some embodiments, the metal part 4 has an insulating plating layer on the side near the metal frame 11.

[0038] Therefore, in addition to being isolated from the metal frame 11 at one end by the insulating part 3, the metal part 4 also has an insulating plating layer on the side near the metal frame 11, which can completely isolate the metal frame 11 and the metal part 4. Even when the upper housing 12 is rotatably connected to the metal frame 11 through the metal part 4 (rotating shaft 5), the metal frame 11 will at most contact the insulating plating layer, but will not contact the metal part 4. This can prevent the metal frame 11 from conducting static electricity to the metal part 4, and thus avoid electric shock to the user when using the electronic device 100 due to contact with the metal part 4. Moreover, the metal frame 11 and the metal part 4 will not corrode, fundamentally reducing the wear rate of the metal frame 11 and the metal part 4, and further reducing the maintenance cost and service life of the electronic device 100.

[0039] The insulating coating can be mainly made of insulating materials such as resin and ceramics.

[0040] In some embodiments, the metal frame 11 may have a gap between it and the insulating coating.

[0041] In some embodiments, the metal component 4 and the metal frame 11 are made of different metal materials.

[0042] Since the metal part 4 and the metal frame 11 are isolated and do not come into contact, corrosion will not occur even if they are made of different metal materials. Therefore, the selection of materials for the metal part 4 and the metal frame 11 is not limited, providing more options for the materials used in the manufacture of the metal part 4 and the metal frame 11.

[0043] The metal part 4 can be made of carbon steel, alloy steel, brass, aluminum alloy and other metal materials, and the metal frame 11 can be made of aluminum alloy, stainless steel, magnesium alloy and other metal materials.

[0044] In some embodiments, the metal frame 11 is provided with a mounting groove 113, the insulating part 3 is installed in the mounting groove 113 to fix the metal frame 11, and one end of the metal part 4 is connected to the insulating part 3.

[0045] Therefore, the insulating part 3 is installed in the mounting groove 113, which can reduce the volume of the electronic device 100 and prevent the electronic device 100 from increasing in size due to the presence of the insulating part 3, making it easier for the user to carry the electronic device 100; in addition, the insulating part 3 is fixedly connected to the metal frame 11, which can improve the connection stability between the insulating part 3 and the metal frame 11, prevent the insulating part 3 from falling off and losing its isolation function, and thus strengthen the isolation between the metal frame 11 and the metal part 4.

[0046] In some embodiments, the insulating part 3 is provided with a first mounting hole 31, one end of the metal part 4 is provided with a second mounting hole 41, and the electronic device 100 further includes a connector 6, which passes through the first mounting hole 31 and the second mounting hole 41 and is fixed to the first mounting hole 31 and the second mounting hole 41, so that one end of the metal part 4 is connected to the insulating part 3.

[0047] Thus, the metal part 4 is fixedly connected to the insulating part 3 through the connector 6, which facilitates the installation of the metal part 4 and also makes it easy to replace the metal part 4.

[0048] In some embodiments, the connector 6 may be a screw, bolt, or other similar component.

[0049] Specifically, when the connector 6 is made of metal and the first mounting hole 31 is a through hole, the height of the first mounting hole 31 and / or the connector 6 is limited to prevent the connector 6 from contacting the metal frame 11 after passing through the first mounting hole 31, thereby preventing the metal frame 11 from connecting to the metal part 4 through the connector 6. When the connector 6 is made of metal and the first mounting hole 31 is a blind hole, the connector 6 will not contact the metal frame 11, thereby also preventing the metal frame 11 from connecting to the metal part 4 through the connector 6.

[0050] In some embodiments, the insulating part 3 is a plastic formed by nano-injection molding within the mounting groove 113, wherein the insulating part 3 is fixedly integrated with the metal frame 11 to form an integral structure.

[0051] Therefore, by using the plastic formed by nano-injection molding as the insulating part 3, the insulating part 3 and the metal frame 11 are fixed to form an integral structure, which can improve the connection stability of the insulating part 3 and the metal frame 11, prevent the insulating part 3 from falling off and losing its isolation function, and thus strengthen the isolation between the metal frame 11 and the metal part 4.

[0052] The insulating part 3 can not only be injection molded into the mounting groove 113, but can also be fixed with other parts of the metal frame 11 by injection molding to form an integral structure, so as to isolate the metal frame 11 from other metal parts 4.

[0053] Please see Figure 4 , Figure 4 for Figure 1 The diagram shows a three-dimensional structure of the electronic device 100 without its upper housing 12. The electronic device 100 also includes a metal bracket 7, which is fixedly mounted on the upper housing 12. The metal bracket 7 has an insertion portion, and the metal frame 11 has a groove 114. When the upper housing 12 rotates to a position covering the metal frame 11, the insertion portion of the metal bracket 7 is inserted into the groove 114. The metal bracket 7 and the main body 111 are made of the same metal material.

[0054] Therefore, since the metal bracket 7 and the body part 111 are made of the same material, corrosion will not occur when the metal bracket 7 and the body part 111 come into contact, thereby fundamentally reducing the wear rate of the metal frame 11 and the metal bracket 7, further reducing the maintenance cost of the electronic device 100 and increasing the service life of the electronic device 100.

[0055] The metal support 7 is provided with a third magnetic element 120, and the metal frame 11 is provided with a fourth magnetic element 130. The metal support 7 is inserted into the groove 114 by the magnetic attraction of the third magnetic element 120 and the fourth magnetic element 130. Before the metal support 7 is inserted into the groove 114, the user can release his hand directly, and the metal support 7 will be aligned and inserted into the groove 114 by the magnetic attraction.

[0056] In some embodiments, the metal bracket 7, after being inserted into the groove 114, does not contact the metal frame 11 but remains suspended, thus avoiding the reception of static electricity. Furthermore, since the upper housing 12 is made of the plastic material, the metal bracket 7 receives static electricity conducted by the metal frame 11 but does not conduct it to the upper housing 12. Also, because the metal bracket 7 does not protrude from the side of the upper housing 12, users are less likely to touch it.

[0057] In other embodiments, an insulating part 3 may be provided in the groove 114 of the metal frame 11, and the metal bracket 7 is inserted into the groove 114, which is actually inserted into the insulating part 3, so that static electricity will not accumulate.

[0058] In some embodiments, the electronic device 100 further includes an earcup 8, which is mounted on the metal frame 11. The earcup 8 has a storage slot 81 for storing a second electronic device adapted to the electronic device 100. The electronic device 100 is an earphone case, and the second electronic device is an earphone.

[0059] Therefore, the earphones can be placed inside the earphone case, and the earphones do not need to take up other space, thus saving the total space occupied by the case and earphones, making it convenient for users to carry both the earphone case and earphones together.

[0060] In some embodiments, the metal frame 11 is provided with an ear cup hole 115, the ear cup 8 is installed in the ear cup hole 115, the ear cup 8 is provided with a protruding edge, and the ear cup hole 115 is provided with a stepped portion. The protruding edge matches the stepped portion of the ear cup hole 115 to prevent dust from entering the metal frame 11.

[0061] In some embodiments, the electronic device 100 further includes a button 9 disposed on the metal frame 11, the button 9 being electrically connected to the circuit board 2, and the button 9 being used to control the pairing connection between the electronic device 100 and the second electronic device in response to a trigger operation.

[0062] The triggering operation can be either a long press or a single click.

[0063] Please see Figure 5 , Figure 5This is a three-dimensional structural diagram of the electronic device 100 provided in the second embodiment of this application. In some embodiments, the upper housing 12 and the metal frame 11 are fitted together, the metal component 4 is an antenna assembly 50, the metal component 4 is disposed on the side of the metal frame 11 facing the upper housing 12, or the metal component 4 is disposed on the side of the metal frame 11, and the insulating portion 3 is disposed around the area of ​​the metal component 4 adjacent to the metal frame 11 to electrically isolate the metal frame 11 from the metal component 4.

[0064] Thus, the insulating part 3 isolates the antenna assembly 50 from the metal frame 11, so that the antenna assembly 50 is not interfered with by the metal frame 11. This isolation design also ensures that the electromagnetic energy generated by the antenna assembly 50 can be effectively radiated into free space instead of being interfered with by the metal frame 11, thereby enhancing the strength of the transmitted signal and improving the stability of the signal transmission, so that the antenna assembly 50 can better perform its own function.

[0065] In some embodiments, the metal frame 11 includes a boss 116, and the insulating part 3 is also disposed on the boss 116. The electronic device 100 includes a first magnetic member 10 and a second magnetic member (not shown in the figure). The earrest 8 is provided with a first plastic contact area. The first magnetic member 10 is disposed in the first plastic contact area. The insulating part 3 of the boss 116 constitutes a second plastic contact area. The second magnetic member is disposed in the second plastic contact area. The first magnetic member 10 and the second magnetic member are respectively used to attract the two ends of the second electronic device.

[0066] Therefore, by using the first magnetic 10 and the second magnetic 10 to attract the two ends of the second electronic device and store the second electronic device inside the electronic device 100, the second electronic device can be stored in a fixed position more efficiently without the need for multiple manual adjustments. Furthermore, when the first magnetic 10 and the second magnetic 10 attract the two ends of the second electronic device, the second electronic device will have an impact movement. By placing the first magnetic 10 and the second magnetic 10 in the first plastic contact area and the second plastic contact area respectively, the impact movement of the second electronic device can be prevented from damaging the second electronic device.

[0067] In some embodiments, the first plastic contact area is the groove wall of the ear support 8's storage groove 81.

[0068] In some embodiments, the metal component 4 is a metal pin 40, the metal component 4 passes through the metal frame 11 and is exposed at the boss 116, one end of the metal component 4 is electrically connected to the circuit board 2, and the other end of the metal component 4 is electrically connected to the second electronic device.

[0069] Therefore, isolating the metal pins 40 and the metal frame 11 through the insulating part 3 prevents contact between the metal frame 11 and the metal pins 40, thus preventing the metal frame 11 from conducting static electricity to the metal pins 40. This also prevents static electricity from being conducted to the circuit board 2 through the metal pins 40 and damaging the chip, thereby preventing damage to the circuit board 2. Moreover, since the metal frame 11 and the metal pins 40 are isolated, corrosion will not occur regardless of whether the metal frame 11 and the metal pins 40 are made of the same metal. This fundamentally reduces the wear rate of the metal frame 11 and the metal pins 40, further reducing the maintenance cost of the electronic device 100 and increasing its service life.

[0070] As mentioned above, when the electronic device 100 is an earphone case and the second electronic device is an earphone, when the earphone is stored in the storage slot 81, the electrical connector 6 of the earphone stem will connect with the metal pin 40, and then the earphone case will charge the earphone through the metal pin 40.

[0071] In some embodiments, the housing 1 includes a first surface and a second surface, and the electronic device 100 further includes a functional component. The first surface is provided with a third mounting hole 13. The functional component is disposed at and / or near the third mounting hole 13. When the third mounting hole 13 is disposed on the metal frame 11, the insulating part 3 is disposed around the third mounting hole 13 to insulate the metal frame 11 and the functional component. The functional component includes one or more of the following: an antenna assembly 50, a display assembly 101, a charging interface 90, a sound-emitting device, and a microphone.

[0072] Thus, by isolating the functional components and the metal frame 11 through the insulating part 3, contact between the metal frame 11 and the functional components can be prevented, thereby avoiding interference from the metal frame 11 with the operation of the functional components. It also prevents the metal frame 11 from conducting static electricity to the metal functional components, thus preventing electric shock to the user when using the electronic device 100 due to contact with the functional components, improving the safety of the electronic device 100. Furthermore, since the metal frame 11 and the functional components are isolated, corrosion will not occur regardless of whether the metal frame 11 and the functional components are made of the same metal, fundamentally reducing the wear rate of the metal frame 11 and the functional components, further reducing the maintenance cost of the electronic device 100, and increasing its service life.

[0073] In some embodiments, the functional components include an antenna assembly 50 and a first microphone 60, and the electronic device 100 further includes a button 70. The antenna assembly 50 is disposed in the third mounting hole 13 and has a first sound receiving hole 14. The first microphone 60 is disposed in the metal frame 11 and close to the first sound receiving hole 14 and communicates with the first sound receiving hole 14. The button 70 is disposed on the second surface.

[0074] Therefore, this application places the first microphone hole 14 and the antenna assembly 50 on the same side. This design exposes the first microphone hole 14 when the user holds the electronic device 100, so that when the first microphone 60 collects the first audio signal through the first microphone hole 14, the user's hand does not cover the antenna assembly 50, thereby enhancing the signal strength transmitted by the antenna assembly 50 and improving its signal transmission stability. Furthermore, during the transmission of the first audio signal, the stronger signal greatly reduces the number of stutters, thus improving the smoothness of the signal transmission of the antenna assembly 50 and allowing the antenna assembly 50 to better perform its function.

[0075] Furthermore, the user can hold the electronic device 100 and directly press the button 70 to trigger the operation and control the first microphone 60 to collect the first audio signal, which improves the convenience of the user in collecting audio signals using the electronic device 100. In addition, the button 70 and the first microphone hole 14 are located on different surfaces of the housing 1, so the user can press the button 70 without blocking the first microphone hole 14, so that the user can input voice signals directly into the first microphone hole 14.

[0076] Specifically, when a user holds the electronic device 100, the palm can only touch the surfaces other than the first surface, thus exposing the first surface and the first sound hole 14. At this time, the first surface is exposed, and the antenna assembly 50 disposed on the first surface is also exposed. As a result, the user's hand will not cover the antenna assembly 50, allowing the antenna assembly 50 to better perform its own functions.

[0077] Furthermore, when the user holds the electronic device 100, the user's mouth is close to and directly facing the first sound-receiving hole 14 to output the voice signal. Therefore, the signal-to-noise ratio of the first audio signal, which includes the voice signal and ambient noise, collected by the first microphone 60 through the first sound-receiving hole 14 is high. Thus, the electronic device 100 can collect the user's voice signal with high quality in noisy environments, thereby improving the user's user experience.

[0078] Moreover, the antenna assembly 50 and the first sound receiving hole 14 are both located in the area corresponding to the third mounting hole 13, which can reduce the number of windows (i.e. openings) on the first side of the electronic device 100, thereby enhancing the aesthetic appearance of the electronic device 100.

[0079] In some embodiments, the first microphone hole 14 is provided with a waterproof and breathable membrane and a dustproof mesh, etc., to prevent moisture and dust from entering the housing 1, thereby avoiding affecting the operation of the electronic device 100.

[0080] In some embodiments, the antenna assembly 50 includes a base 140 and a radiator. The base 140 is disposed on a first surface of the housing 1, and the radiator is disposed on the base 140 and electrically connected to the circuit board 2. The first microphone hole 14 is disposed on the base 140, and the first microphone 60 is disposed on the side of the base 140 near the circuit board 2. The electronic device 100 transmits signals through the radiator.

[0081] In some embodiments, a base 140 is installed in the third mounting hole 13. A radiator may or may not be provided on the base 140. An avoidance mounting hole 150 is provided on the base 140, and the charging interface 90 and the display component 101 pass through the corresponding avoidance mounting hole 150.

[0082] In some embodiments, the antenna assembly 50 includes a radiating body and an extension, the radiating body being mounted in the third mounting hole 13, the extension being connected to the radiating body and extending toward the circuit board 2 for electrical connection with the circuit board 2.

[0083] The antenna assembly 50 is entirely made of metal and is a radiator. The antenna assembly 50 is electrically connected to the circuit board 2, and the electronic device 100 transmits signals through the antenna assembly 50.

[0084] In some embodiments, the electronic device 100 further includes a metal spring connected between the extension and the circuit board 2. The extension is electrically connected to the circuit board 2 via the metal spring, facilitating the electrical connection between the radiating body and the circuit board 2.

[0085] In some embodiments, the electronic device 100 includes a charging interface 90 disposed on the first surface and electrically connected to the circuit board 2. The charging interface 90 is used to connect to an external power source to charge the electronic device 100. The antenna assembly 50 also includes a clearance portion 501 through which the charging interface 90 passes.

[0086] Therefore, by placing the antenna assembly 50 and the charging interface 90 in the same area, the number of windows on the first side 18 of the electronic device 100 can be reduced, thereby enhancing the aesthetic appearance of the electronic device 100.

[0087] The charging interface 90 passes through the clearance portion 501 from inside the housing 1, but does not protrude from the first surface; instead, it is located inside the clearance portion 501.

[0088] In some embodiments, the interior of the avoidance part 501 avoids the charging interface 90, specifically by hollowing out the interior to isolate it from the charging interface 90.

[0089] In some embodiments, the electronic device 100 further includes a display component 101 disposed on the housing 1 and electrically connected to the circuit board 2. The circuit board 2 controls the display component 101 to display different status effects based on the different operating states of the first microphone 60, so as to indicate the operating state of the first microphone 60 through the status effects. The display component 101 can visually prompt the user about the operating state of the first microphone 60 through the status effects it displays, so as to facilitate the user's understanding of the operating state of the first microphone 60.

[0090] In some embodiments, the display component 101 may be an LED light or other element that displays lighting effects. Taking an LED light as an example, the LED light can display different lighting effects based on the operating state of the first microphone 60. For instance, when the first microphone 60 is not working, the LED light does not display any lighting effects or displays a first color light; when the first microphone 60 is working, the LED light displays a second color light. The first and second color lights can be red, green, orange, or other colors, and are not limited here. For example, when the electronic device 100 records audio through the first microphone 60, the LED light displays yellow light; when the electronic device 100 makes a call through the first microphone 60, the LED light displays green light.

[0091] In some embodiments, the display component 101 may be a display screen, which may display different information based on the working state of the first microphone 60. For example, when the first microphone 60 is not working, the display screen does not display any information or displays text information indicating that the first microphone 60 is working. When the first microphone 60 enters the working state, the display screen displays information such as "collecting", "recording", and "calling". In addition, the display screen may also display information such as recording duration and call duration.

[0092] In some embodiments, the antenna assembly 50 is further provided with a display clearance hole, and the display assembly 101 is mounted in the display clearance hole.

[0093] In some embodiments, the electronic device 100 further includes a battery 102 and a wireless charging unit 103. The battery 102 is disposed within the metal frame 11 and is electrically connected to the circuit board 2 to power the circuit board 2. The wireless charging unit 103 is electrically connected to the battery 102 and wirelessly charges the battery 102 by contacting an external power source.

[0094] In some embodiments, the electronic device 100 further includes a sound-generating device disposed within the housing 1 and electrically connected to the circuit board 2. The housing 1 has a sound outlet, which communicates with the sound-generating device. The sound-generating device is used to output audio signals to the outside of the housing 1 through the sound outlet.

[0095] Please see Figure 6 and Figure 7 , Figure 6 for Figure 1 A three-dimensional structural diagram of the electronic device 100 in another direction. Figure 7 for Figure 6 A front view of the electronic device 100. In some embodiments, the electronic device 100 further includes a second microphone 104, and the housing 1 further includes a third surface with a second sound-receiving hole 15. The second microphone 104 is disposed within the metal frame 11 and communicates with the second sound-receiving hole 15. The second microphone 104 is disposed within the metal frame 11 in a region away from the first microphone 60, and the first microphone 60 is located within the range of a first pickup angle of the second microphone 104.

[0096] Therefore, when the user inputs the first audio signal into the first microphone hole 14, the second microphone 104 will also collect the second audio signal. By setting the two microphones at an interval and collecting audio signals simultaneously, the noise reduction effect of the collected audio signals can be improved, so as to obtain a clearer and higher quality target voice signal, thereby improving the user experience of using the electronic device 100 for calls and recording.

[0097] In some embodiments, the button 70 responds to a trigger operation to control the first microphone 60 to receive a first audio signal input from the outside of the housing 1, and to control the second microphone 104 to receive a second audio signal input from the outside of the housing 1.

[0098] In some embodiments, the second electronic device is provided with at least one third microphone, and the button 70 is also used to control whether the first microphone 60 and the third microphone collect corresponding audio signals in response to a trigger operation, or the circuit board 2 controls whether the first microphone 60 and the third microphone collect corresponding audio signals based on the magnitude of the detected ambient noise.

[0099] Specifically, when the third microphone acquires the third audio signal, the button 70 responds to the trigger operation to control the first microphone 60 to acquire the first audio signal, and the third microphone stops working; or, while the button 70 responds to the trigger operation to control the first microphone 60 to acquire the first audio signal, the third microphone continues to acquire the third audio signal. When the ambient noise in the user's environment is too loud, the circuit board 2 controls the first microphone 60 to acquire the first audio signal, causing the third microphone to stop working. When the ambient noise in the user's environment is within an acceptable range, the circuit board 2 controls the third microphone to acquire the third audio signal, causing the first microphone 60 to stop working.

[0100] Therefore, the third microphone of the second electronic device can work with the first microphone 60 as needed to control the corresponding microphone to collect audio signals in the corresponding scenario, thereby improving the user experience.

[0101] In some embodiments, at least a portion of the button 70 protrudes from the second surface. The weight of the electronic device 100 is greater than the pressing force required for the button 70 to respond to the pressing operation. When the electronic device 100 is placed on a flat surface (e.g., a desktop), the button 70 can directly contact the flat surface. Since the weight of the electronic device 100 is greater than the pressing force required for the button 70 to respond to the pressing operation, this contact can trigger the button 70 to control the first microphone 60 to collect the first audio signal. This operation allows the user to continuously control the first microphone 60 without pressing the button 70, but simply by pressing the button 70 against the flat surface. This frees up one hand to perform other tasks, improving work efficiency.

[0102] In some embodiments, the weight of the electronic device 100 may be less than the pressing force required for the button 70 to respond to the pressing operation, so as to avoid accidental operation of the button 70 when the electronic device 100 is placed on the plane.

[0103] When the user inputs the voice signal, ambient noise is also collected by the first microphone 60 along with the voice signal. Therefore, the first microphone 60 and the second microphone 104 collect a first audio signal and a second audio signal that include ambient noise and voice signal.

[0104] Specifically, the first microphone 60 collects the first audio signal, which includes ambient noise and the user's output voice signal. The second microphone 104 collects the second audio signal, which also includes ambient noise and the user's output voice signal. Since the user's mouth is directly facing the first microphone hole 14 and is some distance from the second microphone hole 15, the voice signal in the second audio signal collected by the second microphone 104 through the second microphone hole 15 will have a certain delay relative to the voice signal in the first audio signal. However, the noise collected by the first microphone 60 and the second microphone 104 comes from all directions and therefore has no time delay. The ENC algorithm can then be used to calculate the time difference between the voice signal in the first audio signal and the voice signal in the second audio signal, and to align the voice signal in the second audio signal with the voice signal in the first audio signal in the time domain to achieve time synchronization. Furthermore, since the ambient noise in the second audio signal and the ambient noise in the first audio signal are not synchronized at this time, adding them together can eliminate some noise, thus achieving noise reduction of the audio signal. After the two audio signals are synchronously added, an enhanced target voice signal including the user's input voice signal is obtained.

[0105] Since environmental noise originates from all directions, the environmental noise collected by the first microphone 60 and the second microphone 104 is basically the same. However, since the user is speaking directly into the first microphone hole 14, the voice signal is emitted from a specific direction. Therefore, the voice signals collected by the first microphone 60 and the second microphone 104 are different in timing. Thus, the ENC noise reduction mechanism can be used to reduce the noise of the collected audio signal to obtain the target voice signal.

[0106] As mentioned above, the ENC noise reduction mechanism of the first microphone 60 and the second microphone 104 needs to make the distance between the first microphone 60 and the second microphone 104 as far as possible so that the speech signal in the first audio signal and the second audio signal has a time delay due to the distance.

[0107] In some embodiments, the housing 1 includes a top surface 16, a bottom surface 17 opposite to the top surface 16, and adjacent first side surface 18 and second side surface 19 disposed between the top surface 16 and the bottom surface 17, wherein the first side surface 18 is the first surface, the second side surface 19 is the second surface, and the bottom surface 17 is the third surface; or, the first side surface 18 or the second side surface 19 is the first surface, the top surface 16 is the second surface, and the bottom surface 17 is the third surface; or, the bottom surface 17 is the first surface, the first side surface 18 is the second surface, and the second side surface 19 is the third surface; or, the second side surface 19 is the second surface, and the first side surface 18 is the third surface.

[0108] Therefore, the button 70 and the first microphone hole 14 are located on different surfaces of the housing 1, so that the user can press the button 70 without blocking the first microphone hole 14, so that the user can input voice signals directly into the first microphone hole 14.

[0109] Taking the first side 18 as the first surface, the second side 19 as the second surface, and the bottom surface 17 as the third surface as an example, the first microphone hole 14 is disposed on the first side 18, the button 70 is disposed on the second side 19, and the second microphone hole 15 is disposed on the bottom surface 17.

[0110] In some embodiments, the bottom surface 17 includes four endpoints. Two endpoints that are far from the first microphone hole 14 are selected and connected to a point on the bottom surface 17 that is directly opposite the first microphone hole 14 to form a fan-shaped area. The second microphone hole 15 and the second microphone 104 are located within this fan-shaped area. This arrangement ensures that when the user holds the electronic device 100 and speaks directly into the first microphone hole 14 to output a voice signal, the second microphone hole 15 is located in the direction of voice signal propagation, allowing the second microphone 104 to collect the second audio signal through the second microphone hole 15.

[0111] In other embodiments, the midpoint of the edge of the bottom surface 17 away from the first microphone hole 14 is selected, and a line is drawn between this midpoint and a point on the bottom surface 17 directly opposite the first microphone hole 14. The second microphone hole 15 is located on the surface corresponding to this line. This arrangement ensures that when the user holds the electronic device 100 and speaks directly into the first microphone hole 14 to output a voice signal, the second microphone hole 15 is located in the direction of voice signal propagation, allowing the second microphone 104 to collect the second audio signal through the second microphone hole 15.

[0112] Please see Figure 8 , Figure 8 for Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the first microphone 60 of the electronic device in the image acquiring the first audio signal. (See diagram for example.) Figure 8As shown, when a user holds the electronic device 100, one finger touches a portion of the bottom surface 17 and the side surface of the electronic device 100, and the other fingers touch a portion of the bottom surface 17 and the side surface, while the palm of the user covers the top surface of the electronic device 100. However, the user's hand does not cover the second sound-receiving hole (not shown in the figure, but can be regarded as the part corresponding to the second microphone 5), and therefore does not hinder the first microphone 60 (not shown in the figure, but can be regarded as being located at the top of the fan-shaped area corresponding to A2) and the second microphone 104 from collecting the first audio signal and the second audio signal. A1 is the second pickup angle of the first microphone 60, and A2 is the first pickup angle of the second microphone 104. The angle between the first pickup angle A2 of the second microphone 104 and the second pickup angle A1 of the first microphone 60 can be greater than or equal to 30°. For example, when the first pickup angle A2 is 60° and the second pickup angle A1 is also 60°, and since the first microphone 60 is closer to the mouth 1000 than the second microphone 104 (i.e., the first microphone 60 is closer to the sound source), the second microphone 104 can receive a wider range of audio signals than the first microphone 60. However, the second microphone 104 will also collect more cluttered audio signals than the first microphone 60. Therefore, the angle of the first pickup angle A2 needs to be set smaller than the angle of the second pickup angle A1. For example, if the second pickup angle A1 is 60°, then the angle of the first pickup angle A2 can be 30°, 45°, or other angles less than 60° to more accurately collect the speech signal. However, the angle of the first pickup angle A2 should not be set too small, as this would reduce the range of the speech signal collected by the second microphone 104. Figure 6 The fan-shaped area in the image is too narrow to capture the voice signal.

[0113] However, in order to enable the second microphone 104 to pick up sound from multiple angles, the angle of the first pickup angle of the second microphone 104 can be greater than or equal to 30°. The angle of the first pickup angle can be 30°, 45°, 60°, 90°, 120°, 150°, 180°, 210°, 240°, 270°, 300°, 330°, 360°, etc. The angle of the first pickup angle is not limited to the aforementioned angles and can be any angle greater than 30°. However, at this time, it is necessary to limit the position of the fan-shaped area formed by the first pickup angle, and the fan-shaped area formed by the first pickup angle and the fan-shaped area formed by the second pickup angle should largely overlap.

[0114] In some embodiments, the minimum distance between the second microphone hole 15 and the edge of the bottom surface 17 is greater than or equal to 2 mm, which can prevent the user from covering the second microphone hole 15 with their finger when holding the electronic device 100, thereby avoiding affecting the second microphone 104 in collecting the second audio signal.

[0115] Specifically, when a user holds the electronic device 100, the user's palm is mainly located on the top surface 16, and the other fingers are mainly located on the side of the housing 1 where the first sound-receiving hole 14 is not provided. The user's fingers will partially contact the bottom surface 17. Therefore, when the minimum distance between the second sound-receiving hole 15 and the edge of the bottom surface 17 is greater than or equal to 2mm, the fingers in contact with the bottom surface 17 will not block the second sound-receiving hole 15. Thus, the second microphone 104 can normally collect the second audio signal.

[0116] Furthermore, since the surface of a human hand is soft, it will deform when the electronic device 100 is grasped. For example, when a human hand touches the side, the tissue of the human hand will deform and may extend to the bottom surface 17 or the top surface 16. Therefore, if the first microphone hole 14 and the second microphone hole 15 are too close to the edge, they are easily covered by the tissue of the human hand. Therefore, the minimum distance between the second microphone hole 15 and the first microphone hole 14 and the edge can be set to be greater than or equal to 2mm.

[0117] Please see Figure 9 , Figure 9 for Figure 6 A top view of the electronic device 100. In some embodiments, the bottom surface 17 includes a first bottom surface 171 and a support surface 173 formed by a protrusion 172 connected to the first bottom surface 171. When the electronic device 100 is placed on a plane, the support surface 173 abuts against the plane. The second microphone hole 15 is disposed in a region of the bottom surface 17 that is not on the support surface 173.

[0118] Therefore, the presence of the protrusion 172 and the support surface 173 ensures that when the electronic device 100 is placed on a plane, the second microphone hole 15 does not contact the plane, thus avoiding the situation where the second microphone hole 15 is blocked and unable to collect the second audio signal. Furthermore, the protrusion 172 can surround part of the second microphone hole 15 to reduce the impact of wind noise on the second audio signal collected by the second microphone 104, thereby improving the signal-to-noise ratio of the second audio signal collected by the second microphone 104.

[0119] Furthermore, the user can output voice signals without removing the electronic device 100. The electronic device 100 can be placed on the plane with the support surface 173 abutting against the plane. When outputting voice signals to the first microphone hole 14, since the second microphone hole 15 is located in the area of ​​the bottom surface 17 that is not supported by the support surface 173, the second microphone hole 15 is not blocked by the plane. The second audio signal can enter from the gap between the second microphone hole 15 and the plane and be collected by the second microphone 104, thus avoiding the situation where the second microphone hole 15 is blocked and the second audio signal cannot be collected.

[0120] In some embodiments, the bottom surface 17 further includes a transparent surface 175 formed by a transparent member 174 protruding from the first bottom surface 171, wherein the protrusion height between the transparent surface 175 and the first bottom surface 171 is less than the protrusion height between the support surface 173 and the first bottom surface 171.

[0121] Therefore, the height of the protrusion between the transparent surface 175 and the first bottom surface 171 is less than the height of the protrusion between the supporting surface 173 and the first bottom surface 171, so that the protrusion 172 can support the electronic device 100 on a plane. The transparent surface 175 will not contact the plane, so there will be no wear when the electronic device 100 moves on the plane. In addition, the transparent part 174 can also surround part of the second sound hole 15 to reduce the influence of wind noise on the second audio signal collected by the second microphone 104, thereby improving the signal-to-noise ratio of the second audio signal collected by the second microphone 104.

[0122] The ear rest 8 is the aforementioned transparent part 174. The ear rest 8 is made of transparent material, so that when the second electronic device is stored inside the electronic device 100, the user can see the state inside the housing 1 of the second electronic device without opening the upper housing 12.

[0123] In some embodiments, the upper housing 12 is made of a transparent material, allowing the user to see the second electronic device through the upper housing 12.

[0124] In some embodiments, the side of the frame portion 112 adjacent to the side corresponding to the pivot 5 forms the first side surface 18, and the side of the frame portion 112 opposite to the side corresponding to the pivot 5 forms the second side surface 19.

[0125] Therefore, by not setting the antenna assembly 50, the first microphone hole 14, and the button 70 on the side of the frame portion 112 corresponding to the pivot 5, it is possible to avoid the pivot 5 from interfering with the user's operation such as inputting voice signals directly into the first microphone hole 14 when it is in motion, and also to avoid the pivot 5 from interfering with the antenna assembly 50's signal transmission and reception, thus providing convenience for the user in using the electronic device 100.

[0126] In some embodiments, the housing 1 further includes a bottom shell 109, the bottom shell 109, the metal middle frame 11 and the upper shell 12 are assembled to form the basic structure of the housing 1, wherein the aforementioned bottom surface 17 is the side of the bottom shell 109 away from the metal middle frame 11.

[0127] In some embodiments, the housing 1 further includes a third side 20 opposite to the second side 19, and the second sound hole 15 is disposed on the bottom surface 17. When the user holds the electronic device 100, the button 70 contacts a finger and forms a first point of force, and the third side 20 contacts at least one other finger and forms at least one second point of force.

[0128] When a user holds the electronic device 100, the button 70 contacts a finger and forms a first point of force, while the third side 20 contacts at least one other finger and forms at least one second point of force. The presence of the second point of force allows the user to grip the electronic device 100 tightly. Thus, the electronic device 100 can be held while the user is holding it, triggering the button 70. This facilitates the first microphone 60 to promptly acquire the first audio signal through the first sound-receiving hole 14, avoiding missing important voice information and improving the timeliness and convenience of the electronic device 100 in acquiring audio signals.

[0129] Furthermore, in the case of headphone cases with a basic rectangular shape, when a user's finger (thumb) is on the second side 19 to trigger the button 70, and another finger (index finger) is on the third side 20 to provide relative gripping force, the palm bends and creates an arc. The other fingers are generally on the same side as the index finger, so the first side 18 and bottom 17 where the first microphone 60 and the second microphone 104 are located are difficult to be blocked.

[0130] Please see Figure 10 , Figure 10 This is a three-dimensional structural diagram of the electronic device 100 provided in the third embodiment of this application. Specifically, as shown... Figure 10As shown, the electronic device 100 is a square box. The housing 1 of the electronic device 100 includes an upper housing 12 and a lower housing 105. The upper housing 12 is provided with a rotating groove 121. A rotating component 106 is installed in the rotating groove 121. The rotating groove 121 is provided with a notch 122. The notch 122 has a first end 123 and a second end 124, exposing the side of the rotating component 106 in the notch 122, so that the user can rotate the rotating component 106 from the exposed part. The first microphone hole 14 (not shown in the figure) can be provided on the top surface 16. The first microphone 60 (not shown in the figure) is provided in the upper housing 12 and communicates with the first microphone hole 14. The first microphone hole 14 can also be provided on the rotating component 106. The first microphone 60 is provided in the rotating component 106 and communicates with the first microphone hole 14. The first microphone 60 is connected to the circuit board 2 through the rotating component 106. The positions of the button 70 and the second microphone hole 15 are as described above.

[0131] Please see Figure 11 , Figure 11 This is a three-dimensional structural diagram of the electronic device 100 provided in the fourth embodiment of this application. Figure 11 As shown, the electronic device 100 is also a square box, but the upper shell 12 and the lower shell 105 of the housing 1 are provided with protruding edges 107 on the periphery of their openings. Due to the presence of the protruding edges 107, if the button 70 is set on the side of the housing 1, the protruding edges 107 will prevent the user from triggering the button 70 when holding the electronic device 100. In order to facilitate the user to trigger the button 70, the button 70 (not shown in the figure) can be set on the bottom surface 17, the first microphone hole 14 (not shown in the figure) is set on the side of the housing 1, and the second microphone hole 15 (not shown in the figure) is set on the bottom surface 17 along with the button 70.

[0132] The lower housing 105 can be regarded as an assembly of the metal middle frame 11 and the bottom housing 109 in this application.

[0133] Please see Figure 12 , Figure 12 This is a three-dimensional structural diagram of the electronic device 100 provided in the fifth embodiment of this application. Figure 12As shown, two opposite sides of the housing 1 are curved surfaces, and the other two opposite sides of the housing 1 are rectangular surfaces. The side with the rectangular plane is longer than the other side. Therefore, the button 70 (not shown in the figure) can be placed on the longer side so that the user can press the button 70 when holding the electronic device 100. The first microphone hole 14 (not shown in the figure) can be placed on the shorter side, and the second microphone hole 15 (not shown in the figure) can be placed on the bottom surface 17.

[0134] Please see Figure 13 , Figure 13 This is a three-dimensional structural diagram of the electronic device 100 provided in the sixth embodiment of this application. Figure 13 As shown, the housing 1 is a cylindrical structure, including a top surface 16, a bottom surface 17 (not shown in the figure), and a peripheral surface 108 connecting the top surface 16 and the bottom surface 17. The first microphone hole 14 (not shown in the figure) is disposed on the peripheral surface 108, and the button 70 and the second microphone hole 15 (not shown in the figure) are disposed on the top surface 16 or the bottom surface 17; or, the first microphone hole 14 is disposed on the top surface 16 or the bottom surface 17, and the button 70 and the second microphone hole 15 are disposed on the peripheral surface 108.

[0135] In addition, the button 70 can also be disposed on the top surface 16 at the same time as the first microphone hole 14. In this case, the second microphone hole 15 is disposed on the peripheral side surface 108. When the user holds the electronic device 100, the user's thumb presses the button 70, while the other part of the hand contacts the peripheral side surface 108 and exposes the second microphone hole 15.

[0136] Please refer to 14. Figure 14 This is a three-dimensional structural diagram of the electronic device 100 provided in the seventh embodiment of this application. In some other embodiments, the electronic device 100 is a watch-like device, and the housing 1 is the watch head. Since the dial of the watch head needs to display information such as time, the first microphone 14 (not shown in the figure) is disposed on the top surface 16 around the dial, and the button 70 and the second microphone 15 (not shown in the figure) are both disposed on the side of the watch head.

[0137] Please see Figure 15 , Figure 15This is a three-dimensional structural diagram of the electronic device 100 provided in the eighth embodiment of this application. In other embodiments, the user does not need to hold the electronic device 100 in their hand, but can instead magnetically attach / fix it to a non-screen area of ​​a mobile terminal such as a mobile phone. Taking a mobile phone as an example, the electronic device 100 can be pasted or installed on the back of the phone via a snap-fit ​​structure. The side of the electronic device 100 facing away from the phone has a microphone and a button 70 (not shown in the figure), making it convenient for the user to carry the mobile phone and the electronic device 100. Furthermore, when the mobile terminal is not needed, the user can detach the electronic device 100 from the mobile terminal.

[0138] In some embodiments, the electronic device 100 may also be an action camera. The button 70 is located in the function button 70 area of ​​the action camera. The first microphone hole 14 is located on the side of the action camera housing 1 that is close to the human body when the user is shooting. The first microphone 60 is located inside the action camera housing 1 and communicates with the first microphone hole 14, so as to achieve the effect of recording without other devices when the user shoots videos such as vlogs.

[0139] In other embodiments, as described above, the mobile terminal is an action camera. The electronic device 100 can be attached or clipped to the side of the action camera's housing 1 closest to the user when shooting. The side of the electronic device 100 away from the action camera's housing 1 is equipped with a microphone and a button 70 for recording audio when shooting videos such as vlogs. Furthermore, when the action camera is not needed, the user can detach the electronic device 100 from it.

[0140] In some embodiments, the electronic device 100 establishes a communication connection with the mobile terminal through at least a portion of the antenna assembly 50, and the circuit board 2 is further configured to transmit at least a portion of the first audio signal to the mobile terminal through the antenna assembly 50; or, the electronic device 100 establishes a communication connection with the second electronic device through the antenna assembly 50, and the circuit board 2 is further configured to transmit at least a portion of the first audio signal to the second electronic device through at least a portion of the antenna assembly 50, and the second electronic device transmits at least a portion of the received first audio signal to the mobile terminal; the mobile terminal performs processing operations on the received at least a portion of the first audio signal.

[0141] Therefore, at least a portion of the first audio signal can be transmitted to the mobile terminal via the antenna, and at least a portion of the first audio signal can be transmitted to the second electronic device via the antenna. Then, at least a portion of the received first audio signal can be transmitted to the mobile terminal via the second electronic device. This ensures that even when the mobile terminal or the second electronic device loses its communication connection with the electronic device 100, there is still another signal transmission method, preventing the mobile terminal from being unable to receive at least a portion of the first audio signal.

[0142] At least a portion of the antenna assembly 50 is a portion that can serve as a radiator.

[0143] Currently, when users make calls or record audio in noisy environments, the high ambient noise reduces the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the acquired audio signal, easily leading to poor recording quality and difficulty for the other party to hear the conversation. This is especially true in today's AI era, where AI has significantly improved audio signal processing capabilities (real-time conversion of speech signals into text, summarization of speech signals, translation of speech signals, etc.), increasing the demand for audio signal clarity and SNR. Furthermore, in many everyday scenarios, noise from environments such as high-speed trains, airports, subways, and crowds can significantly impair the sound reception of electronic devices. Even with ENC algorithms to reduce noise in noisy environments, it's still difficult for the other party to hear the conversation clearly.

[0144] In this application, the user can speak close to the earphone box to output a voice signal, which improves the signal-to-noise ratio of the acquired audio signal compared to related technologies. Therefore, the earphone box can acquire the user's voice signal with high quality even in noisy environments, ensuring the other party can clearly hear the conversation and recording. Furthermore, when a user is in a public place and their speech is inconvenient to be heard by others, but cannot leave the public place (e.g., when discussing private information and wanting to speak quietly, but unable to leave their workstation (e.g., with earphones plugged into a computer)), they need to output a voice signal at a lower volume. In this case, the user can output a voice signal at a lower volume by bringing the first microphone 60 close to the earphone box, thus satisfying the user's desired privacy.

[0145] Specifically, both of the aforementioned signal transmission methods can be applied to recording and call scenarios. When a user uses the electronic device 100 to record, at least a portion of the first audio signal collected by the electronic device 100 is transmitted to the mobile terminal, and the mobile terminal stores the received audio signal as a recording file. When a user uses the electronic device 100 to make a call, at least a portion of the first audio signal collected by the electronic device 100 is transmitted to the mobile terminal, and the mobile terminal can transmit the received audio signal to realize the call.

[0146] Taking the example of an electronic device 100 equipped with only a first microphone 60, the electronic device 100 can perform noise reduction processing on the acquired first audio signal through the circuit board 2 to obtain a target voice signal, and then transmit the target voice signal to the mobile terminal. The mobile terminal stores the received target voice signal as an audio file or transmits the received target voice signal to achieve a call. Alternatively, the electronic device 100 can also transmit the acquired first audio signal through the antenna assembly 50 to the second electronic device or the mobile terminal. The second electronic device or the mobile terminal performs noise reduction processing on the received first audio signal to obtain a target voice signal, and the mobile terminal stores the target voice signal as an audio file or transmits the target voice signal to achieve a call. Therefore, depending on the processing device, it needs to be explained that at least a portion of the first audio signal is transmitted to the mobile terminal or the second electronic device through the antenna. The same applies to the electronic device 100 equipped with a first microphone 60 and a second microphone 104, which will not be elaborated further here.

[0147] In some embodiments, the mobile terminal includes an artificial intelligence application, and the electronic device 100 sends at least a portion of a first audio signal to the mobile terminal, and the artificial intelligence application processes the at least portion of the first audio signal to convert the at least portion of the first audio signal into second modal information.

[0148] Therefore, by performing intelligent processing operations such as analysis, summarization, and extraction on at least a portion of the first audio signal through the artificial intelligence application, the key information contained in at least a portion of the first audio signal can be better identified and converted into second modal information, allowing users to see the key information in a targeted manner and improving the user experience.

[0149] The second modal information may be image information, voice information, text information, etc.

[0150] In some embodiments, the electronic device sends at least a portion of a first audio signal and at least a portion of a second audio signal to the mobile terminal, and the artificial intelligence application processes the at least a portion of the first audio signal and at least a portion of the second audio signal to convert the at least a portion of the first audio signal and at least a portion of the second audio signal into second modal information.
