Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of headphone technology, and in particular to an ear hook structure and headphone for TWS headphones. Background Technology
[0002] With the widespread adoption of wireless earbuds, TWS (True Wireless Stereo) and OWS (Open Wearable) earbuds coexist in the market due to their different usage scenarios. TWS earbuds use an in-ear design, offering good noise isolation but are prone to falling out during exercise; OWS earbuds are secured with ear hooks or clips, providing a stable fit but offering only one charging method. In existing technologies, the earbud form factor is usually fixed, making it impossible to freely switch between different scenarios. For example, while the modular interchangeable-shell earbuds disclosed in existing technology (CN202311603359) support switching between in-ear / semi-in-ear / open form factors, they do not solve the charging compatibility issue of the ear hook structure and lack a mechanical structure for quick switching. Users need to carry different earbuds for different scenarios, resulting in poor convenience. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an earbud structure that can freely switch between TWS / OWS form factors while also ensuring anti-fall-out and charging compatibility. Utility Model Content
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide an ear hook structure and earphones for TWS earphones, which can realize one-click switching between TWS / OWS modes and dual-mode charging, while optimizing the acoustic channel to ensure wearing stability and sound clarity in sports scenarios.
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the first aspect of this utility model discloses an ear hook structure for TWS earphones. The main body of the TWS earphone is provided with metal contacts for charging, the shell of the TWS earphone is provided with a magnet, the head of the TWS earphone is provided with a sound-generating unit, and includes an ear hook and a connecting part connected to the ear hook. The ear loop is C-shaped and elastic, used to fix it to the human ear; The surface of the connecting part is provided with a first groove for placing TWS earphones, and the bottom of the first groove is provided with a first through hole that extends axially and penetrates through the groove for placing the head of the TWS earphones. A second groove is provided next to the first through hole, and a magnetic module and a charging pin are provided in the second groove; the magnetic module is used to magnetically attract the magnet of the TWS earphone; the head of the charging pin is used to connect to the metal contact of the TWS earphone. The bottom of the second groove is provided with a second through hole, through which the tail of the charging pin is exposed.
[0005] As an optional implementation, the charging pin is a spring pin structure, and the head of the charging pin is a movable pin tip.
[0006] As another alternative implementation, the magnetic module is a magnet.
[0007] As another alternative implementation, a bracket is placed in the second groove, and the bracket is provided with a third through hole for fixing the charging pin.
[0008] As another optional implementation, the bracket has two third through holes, and there is a cavity between the two third through holes and the bottom of the second groove, in which the magnetic module is fixed.
[0009] As another optional implementation, both the ear loop and the connecting part are made of silicone.
[0010] As another optional implementation, the ear loop and the connecting part are integrally injection molded from silicone material.
[0011] The second aspect of this utility model discloses an earphone, including a TWS earphone and the ear hook structure described in the first aspect of this utility model.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the embodiments of this utility model have the following beneficial effects: This utility model embodiment uses a magnetic module to attach and fix the earphone magnet, and the charging pin contacts the metal contacts to achieve a quick conversion between TWS earphones and OWS ear hook mode, solving the problem of earphones easily falling off during exercise; in ear hook mode, charging is achieved through the exposed end of the charging pin, expanding the earphone's usage scenarios; the first through hole axially penetrates the design to avoid obstructing the sound unit and ensure the clarity of sound quality in OWS mode.
