[Figure 2] This diagram shows the structure of a storage case according to an embodiment. [Figure 3] This is a block diagram showing a schematic system configuration of a storage case according to an embodiment.

[Figure 6] This is a diagram showing the operation of wireless earphones. [Modes for carrying out the invention]
[0009] Embodiment 1 Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. The storage case according to this embodiment is configured as a charging case that stores and simultaneously charges items such as wireless earphones, rechargeable dry cell batteries, and mobile batteries. An example where the stored items are a pair of left and right wireless earphones will be described below.
[0010] Figure 1 is a perspective view showing a schematic configuration of the storage case according to this embodiment. Note that Figure 1 is partially transparent. Figure 2 is a diagram showing the structure of the storage case according to this embodiment.
[0011] Note that in Figure 2, for clarity, only the storage compartment of the right-hand wireless earphone 100 is shown. The configuration of the storage compartment of the left-hand wireless earphone 100 is almost identical to that of the right-hand wireless earphone 100, and is therefore omitted.
[0012] The storage case 1 according to this embodiment comprises a storage section 2, a lid section 3, and a movable section 4.
[0013] The storage unit 2 is configured as a housing. The storage unit 2 houses each wireless earphone 100 inside, and a pair of openings 21 are formed for taking in and out each wireless earphone 100. In the storage unit 2, for example, a left storage chamber 22 for storing the left wireless earphone 100 and a right storage chamber 22 for storing the right wireless earphone 100 are respectively formed. The left storage chamber 22 is a space corresponding to the shape of the left wireless earphone 100. The right storage chamber 22 is a space corresponding to the shape of the right wireless earphone 100.
[0014] The lid portion 3 covers the opening 21. The lid portion 3 is capable of opening and closing with respect to the storage unit 2 via a hinge or the like. On the inner surface of the lid portion 3, ribs 31 protruding toward the storage unit 2 side are formed.
[0015] The moving portion 4 moves toward the opening 21 in conjunction with the opening operation of the lid portion 3. The moving portion 4 is, for example, an arm-shaped member extending in the vertical direction. At the lower end of the moving portion 4, a base portion 41 extending in a plate shape toward the left and right storage chambers 22 side is formed. On the base portion 41, the lower ends of each wireless earphone 100 stored in the left and right storage chambers 22 are respectively placed. The base portion 41 supports its lower end. Note that the moving portion 4 is not limited to the above arm shape, and may be formed, for example, in a cage shape or the like.
[0016] On the lower surfaces of the left and right storage chambers 22, electrode portions 5 protruding toward the opening 21 are respectively provided. Each electrode portion 5 is connected to a battery (not shown). The electrode portion 5 and the battery are a specific example of a charging portion described later. Note that the battery is provided inside the storage unit 2, but is not limited thereto, and may be provided outside the storage unit 2 and connected by wiring via a connection portion of the storage unit 2.
[0017] The base portion 41 of the movable portion 4 has through holes 43 formed at positions corresponding to the mounting positions of the electrode portions 5. Each electrode portion 5 passes through the through hole 43 of the base portion 41 and contacts the charging electrodes 102 at the lower ends of the left and right wireless earphones 100 stored in the left and right storage compartments 22. This allows power to be supplied from the battery to the left and right wireless earphones 100 stored in the left and right storage compartments 22 via the electrode portions 5, thereby enabling charging.
[0018] The movable part 4 is provided between the left and right storage compartments 22 so as to be movable in the vertical direction. A spring member 6 is provided between the lower end of the movable part 4 and the lower side surface of the storage compartment 2. This spring member 6 biases the movable part 4 toward the opening 21 (upwards).
[0019] When the lid 3 is closed, the tip of the rib 31 of the lid 3 comes into contact with the upper end of the movable part 4. Therefore, by closing the lid 3, the movable part 4 is pushed down into the storage part 2 (downward) by the rib 31 of the lid 3, against the biasing force of the spring member 6.
[0020] When the left and right wireless earphones 100 are stored in the left and right storage compartments 22, the left and right wireless earphones 100 are resting on the base portion 41 at the lower end of the movable part 4. Therefore, when the base portion 41 of the movable part 4 moves downward in conjunction with the closing operation of the lid portion 3, the left and right wireless earphones 100 resting on the base portion 41 also move downward and are stored in the left and right storage compartments 22.
[0021] In this way, the closing operation of the lid 3 allows the left and right wireless earphones 100 to be easily stored in the left and right storage compartments 22. At this time, as described above, each electrode 5 passes through the through hole 43 of the base 41 and contacts the charging electrodes 102 at the lower ends of the left and right wireless earphones 100 stored in the left and right storage compartments 22, thereby supplying power from the battery to the left and right wireless earphones 100 via the electrode 5 and enabling charging.
[0022] On the other hand, when the lid 3 is opened, the upper end of the movable part 4 is released from the rib 31 of the lid 3 and is pushed upward toward the opening 21 by the biasing force of the spring member 6. In this way, the movable part 4 is configured to move upward in conjunction with the opening operation of the lid 3.
[0023] When removing the left and right wireless earphones 100 from the left and right storage compartments 22, the base 41 of the movable part 4 moves upward in conjunction with the opening of the lid 3. As a result, the left and right wireless earphones 100, which are resting on the base 41, also move upward and come out of the left and right storage compartments 22. In this way, the left and right wireless earphones 100 can be easily removed from the left and right storage compartments 22 by opening the lid 3.
[0024] Preferably, the amount of upward movement of the movable part 4 is set to ensure both ease of removal of the wireless earphone 100 and prevention of dropping.
[0025] Incidentally, conventionally, wireless earphones were stored magnetically inside the storage compartment to prevent them from falling out. As a result, when opening the lid 3 to remove the stored items from the storage compartment, a problem may arise in that the magnetically attached items are difficult to remove.
[0026] In contrast, in this embodiment, the storage case 1 is equipped with a fixing and releasing part 7 that, when the movable part 4 moves downward in conjunction with the closing operation of the lid 3, moves toward the wireless earphone 100 in conjunction with the movement of the movable part 4 and comes into contact with the wireless earphone 100, thereby fixing the wireless earphone 100 to the movable part 4, and when the movable part 4 moves toward the opening 21 in conjunction with the opening operation of the lid 3, moves toward the wireless earphone 100 in conjunction with the movement of the movable part 4 and releases the wireless earphone 100.
[0027] As a result, the wireless earphone 100 is secured to the movable part 4 by the fixing / release part 7 in conjunction with the closing operation of the lid part 3, preventing it from falling out. Then, the wireless earphone 100 is released from the movable part 4 in conjunction with the opening operation of the lid part 3, allowing the user to easily remove the wireless earphone 100 from inside the storage part 2.
[0028] Next, the method of fixing the wireless earphones 100 using the fixing release section 7 will be described in detail. The fixing release section 7 is configured, for example, as a rod-shaped member or a plate-shaped member extending in the left-right direction. The fixing release section 7 is provided on the side walls 23 of the left and right storage compartments 22 so as to be movable in the left-right direction. The left fixing release section 7 fixes the left wireless earphone 100, and the right fixing release section 7 fixes the right wireless earphone 100.
[0029] A diagonal slit 71 is formed at the rear end of the fixed release portion 7. A pin 42 attached to the movable portion 4 is inserted into the slit 71 at the rear end of the fixed release portion 7, and the pin 42 of the movable portion 4 engages with the slit 71 of the fixed release portion 7.
[0030] With the above configuration, when the movable part 4 moves downward in response to the closing operation of the lid part 3, the pin 42 of the movable part 4 pushes the slit 71 of the fixed release part 7 toward the wireless earphone 100. As a result, the fixed release part 7 moves toward the wireless earphone 100, and its tip comes into contact with the wireless earphone 100.
[0031] Here, the wireless earphone 100 has a concave portion 101 formed therein. The tip of the fixed release portion 7 contacts this concave portion 101 of the wireless earphone 100. Furthermore, the tip of the fixed release portion 7 has a rounded R shape formed therein, and this tip contacts the corner of the concave portion 101 so as to be pressed against it.
[0032] This contact causes the tip of the fixed release portion 7 to push the wireless earphone 100 downwards, pressing the lower end of the wireless earphone 100 against the base portion 41 of the movable portion 4. This not only fixes the wireless earphone 100 to the base portion 41 of the movable portion 4, but also ensures that the charging electrode 102 at the lower end of the wireless earphone 100 makes sufficient contact with the electrode portion 5 that passes through the through hole 43 of the base portion 41, thereby enabling reliable charging.
[0033] On the other hand, when the movable part 4 moves upward in response to the opening of the lid part 3, the pin 42 of the movable part 4 pushes the slit 71 of the fixed release part 7 toward the movable part 4. As a result, the fixed release part 7 moves toward the movable part 4, its tip separates from the concave part 101 of the wireless earphone 100, and the wireless earphone 100 is released from the fixed release part 7. The wireless earphone 100 then moves upward due to the upward movement of the movable part 4 and the base part 41 and comes out of the storage compartments 22 on the left and right sides. This allows the user to easily remove the wireless earphone 100 from the storage compartments 22.
[0034] Furthermore, as described above, by disconnecting and reconnecting the charging electrodes 102 of the wireless earphone 100 in conjunction with the opening and closing of the lid 3, the self-cleaning (activation of the contacts) of the charging contacts can be promoted simply by opening and closing the lid 3, without having to attach or detach the wireless earphone 100, thereby preventing contact problems. For example, even when using only one of the wireless earphones 100 (either the left or right), the contacts of the unused wireless earphone 100 can be activated.
[0035] In this embodiment, the left and right wireless earphones 100 are stored in the left and right storage compartments 22, respectively, but the system is not limited to this configuration. One wireless earphone 100 may be stored in a single storage compartment 22.
[0036] Embodiment 2 Figure 3 is a block diagram showing a schematic system configuration of the storage case according to this embodiment. The storage case 1 according to this embodiment 2 includes a charging unit 8 that charges the left and right wireless earphones 100, a charging detection unit 9 that detects the charging status of the left and right wireless earphones 100, and an interlocking control unit 10 that controls whether or not to link the opening operation of the lid 3 with the movement of the movement unit 4.
[0037] The charge detection unit 9 detects, for example, the charge levels of the left and right wireless earphones 100. The charge detection unit 9 is composed of, for example, a current sensor and a voltage sensor. The charge detection unit 9 outputs the detected charge levels of the left and right wireless earphones 100 to the interlock control unit 10.
[0038] The interlocking control unit 10 controls whether or not to link the movement of the movement unit 4 to the opening operation of the lid unit 3, based on the charge levels of the left and right wireless earphones 100 detected by the charge detection unit 9.
[0039] The interlocking control unit 10 has a hardware configuration similar to that of a typical computer, comprising, for example, a processor such as a CPU (Central Processing Unit) or GPU (Graphics Processing Unit), internal memory such as RAM (Random Access Memory) or ROM (Read Only Memory), storage devices such as an HDD (Hard Disk Drive) or SSD (Solid State Drive), an input / output interface for connecting peripheral devices such as a display, and a communication interface for communicating with devices outside the device.
[0040] For example, the movable part 4 is provided with a latch mechanism 11 that allows or stops the vertical movement of the movable part 4. The latch mechanism 11 is operated by an actuator such as an electromagnetic switch and is configured to stop the movement of the movable part. When the interlocking control unit 10 determines that the charge level of the left and right wireless earphones 100 detected by the charge detection unit 9 is below a predetermined amount and is unsuitable for use, it controls the actuator of the latch mechanism 11 to stop the movement of the movable part 4.
[0041] As a result, even if the user opens the lid 3, the movable part 4 does not move upward in conjunction with the opening operation. In this case, the left and right wireless earphones 100 remain stored in the left and right storage compartments 22 and do not come out. Therefore, the user can easily recognize that the left and right wireless earphones 100 are not fully charged because they do not come out. Furthermore, since charging of the left and right wireless earphones 100 continues via the electrode part 5, reliable charging can be ensured.
[0042] On the other hand, if the interlocking control unit 10 determines that the charge level of the left and right wireless earphones 100 detected by the charge detection unit 9 is greater than a predetermined amount, it controls the actuator of the latch mechanism 11 not to operate, thereby linking the opening of the lid 3 to the movement of the movement unit 4. The left and right wireless earphones 100 come out from inside the left and right storage compartments 22. Therefore, the user can easily recognize that the left and right wireless earphones 100 have sufficient charge by seeing them come out.
[0043] The charging detection unit 9 may also detect charging abnormalities in the charging status of the left and right wireless earphones 100. For example, the charging detection unit 9 detects a charging abnormality if the charging time of the left and right wireless earphones 100 has been elapsed for a certain period of time or more, but the charge level is below a predetermined amount.
[0044] The charging detection unit 9 may notify the user of any charging abnormality by sound or light. For example, the warning sound or light may be output using the speakers or LEDs (Light Emitting Diodes) of the left and right wireless earphones 100 or the storage case 1. The user can easily recognize the charging abnormality by the warning sound or light, and can easily and quickly repair the abnormality by, for example, opening and closing the lid 3 to self-clean the charging contacts. During the opening and closing of the lid 3, the interlocking control unit 10 controls the movement of the moving part 4 by operating the actuator of the latch mechanism 11.
[0045] In this embodiment, the interlocking control unit 10 may control whether or not to link the movement of the left and right movable parts 4 to the opening operation of the lid 3, based on the charge levels of the left and right wireless earphones 100 detected by the charge detection unit 9. In this case, the storage unit 2 is provided with a pair of left and right movable parts 4 corresponding to the pair of left and right wireless earphones 100.
[0046] For example, if the interlocking control unit 10 determines that the charge level of the left wireless earphone 100 detected by the charge detection unit 9 is below a predetermined amount, it controls the actuator of the latch mechanism 11 to stop the movement of the left movable part 4. Similarly, if the interlocking control unit 10 determines that the charge level of the right wireless earphone 100 detected by the charge detection unit 9 is below a predetermined amount, it controls the actuator of the latch mechanism 11 to stop the movement of the right movable part 4.
[0047] This allows the user to individually recognize when the left and right wireless earbuds 100 are sufficiently charged by the earbuds protruding outwards, and also makes it easier to remove the wireless earbuds 100 when they are sufficiently charged for use.
[0048] Embodiment 3 Figure 4 is a block diagram showing a schematic system configuration of the storage case according to this embodiment. In this embodiment, the storage section 2 is provided with a pair of left and right buttons 12 and left and right movable parts 4, corresponding to a pair of left and right wireless earphones 100.
[0049] The interlocking control unit 10 controls whether or not to link the movement of the left and right movable parts 4 to the opening of the lid 3, in response to the operation of each of the left and right buttons 12. The left and right buttons 12 are each connected to the interlocking control unit 10. The left and right buttons 12 are configured as switches that can be switched on or off by pressing them. The left and right buttons 12 may switch to the ON state and output an ON signal when pressed.
[0050] The interlocking control unit 10 moves the left and right movable parts 4, which correspond to the operation of the left and right buttons 12, toward the opening 21 in conjunction with the opening operation of the lid 3, thereby moving the left and right wireless earphones 100, which correspond to the operation of the left and right buttons 12, toward the opening 21.
[0051] For example, as shown on the left side of Figure 5, when the user presses the right button 12, the right button 12 turns ON and outputs an ON signal to the interlocking control unit 10. When the interlocking control unit 10 receives the ON signal from the right button 12, it controls the movement of only the right movable part 4, which corresponds to the operation of the right button 12, toward the opening 21 in conjunction with the opening operation of the lid 3.
[0052] In this case, when the user opens the lid 3, only the right-side movable part 4 moves toward the opening 21, and as shown on the right side of Figure 5, the right wireless earphone 100 comes out of the right-side storage compartment 22. This allows the user to easily remove the right wireless earphone 100 from the right-side storage compartment 22.
[0053] Note that in Figure 5, for clarity, only the storage compartment of the right-hand wireless earphone 100 is shown. The configuration of the storage compartment of the left-hand wireless earphone 100 is almost identical to that of the right-hand wireless earphone 100, and is therefore omitted.
[0054] On the other hand, when the user presses the left button 12, the left button 12 turns ON and outputs an ON signal to the interlock control unit 10. When the interlock control unit 10 receives the ON signal from the left button 12, it controls the movement of only the left movable part 4, which corresponds to the operation of the left button 12, toward the opening 21 in conjunction with the opening operation of the lid 3. In this case, when the user opens the lid 3, only the left movable part 4 moves toward the opening 21, and the left wireless earphone 100 comes out of the left storage compartment 22. This allows the user to easily remove the left wireless earphone 100 from the left storage compartment 22.
[0055] In this way, the user can individually remove the wireless earphone 100 from the left or right side by pressing the button 12 corresponding to the earphone they want to remove, which is particularly convenient when holding the storage case with one hand and removing the wireless earphone 100 with the other. Note that there does not need to be multiple buttons 12 corresponding to the left and right wireless earphones 100; a single button 12 is sufficient as long as it can be set to correspond to each of the left and right wireless earphones 100. For example, it could be a single slide switch with multiple setting positions.
[0056] In this embodiment, a configuration in which the stored items are two wireless earphones 100 has been described, but the number of stored items may be three or more, and is arbitrary.
[0057] For example, if three items are stored in three storage compartments 22, the storage unit 2 is provided with three buttons 12 and three movable parts 4, each corresponding to one of the three items. The interlocking control unit 10 may move each movable part 4 corresponding to the operation of each button 12 toward the opening 21 in conjunction with the opening operation of the lid 3, thereby moving each item corresponding to the operation of each button 12 toward the opening 21. The buttons 12 can be one or fewer buttons corresponding to three or more storage compartments 22, and should be able to be set to correspond to each of the three or more storage compartments 22. For example, it may be a single slide switch with multiple setting positions.
[0058] Embodiment 4 This embodiment In this configuration, the storage section 2 is provided with guide sections (not shown) that rotate or tilt the left and right wireless earphones 100 when the moving section 4 moves the wireless earphones 100 toward the opening 21.
[0059] As a result, the left and right wireless earphones 100 pop out from the storage compartments 2 on the left and right sides, creating a gap between the left and right wireless earphones 100 and the storage compartments 2 for the user to insert their fingers when removing the earphones, thereby improving ease of removal.
[0060] For example, the storage compartment 2 may be provided with a guide portion that rotates the wireless earphone 100 when the moving portion 4 moves the wireless earphone 100 upward toward the opening 21. The guide portion may be a concave groove formed diagonally in the vertical direction on the inner surface of the storage chamber 22.
[0061] The wireless earphone 100 is provided with a projection that is inserted into and engages with this groove. When the wireless earphone 100 moves upward toward the opening 21, it rotates due to this groove, as shown in the upper right of Figure 6. The guide portion is a projection formed on the inner surface of the storage chamber 22, and the wireless earphone 100 may have a concave portion that engages with this projection.
[0062] The storage compartment 2 may be provided with a guide section that tilts the wireless earphone 100 when the moving section 4 moves the wireless earphone 100 upward toward the opening 21. The guide section may be an inclined surface provided near the opening 21 of the storage compartment 22. The wireless earphone 100 moves upward and, near the opening 21, is tilted by this inclined surface as shown in the lower right of Figure 6.
[0063] As a result, when the wireless earphones 100 are stored in the storage compartment 22, the storage position can be set within the storage compartment 22 with priority given to making the storage unit 2 smaller. Furthermore, when removing them, the position can be adjusted by rotating or tilting the wireless earphones 100 as described above, taking into consideration the ease of removal by the user. In other words, it is possible to achieve both miniaturization of the storage unit 2 and user convenience.
[0064] Note that in Figure 6, for clarity, only the operation of the right wireless earphone 100 is shown. The operation of the left wireless earphone 100 is omitted because it is almost identical to the operation of the right wireless earphone 100.
[0065] While several embodiments of the present invention have been described, these embodiments are presented as examples only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. These novel embodiments can be carried out in a variety of other forms, and various omissions, substitutions, and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit of the invention. These embodiments and their variations are included in the scope and spirit of the invention, as well as in the claims and their equivalents. [Explanation of Symbols]
