Electronic device that accommodates audio devices

[0001] The present disclosure relates to an electronic device accommodating an audio device.

[0002] With the development of electronic devices that provide various functions, such as mobile communication terminals, smartphones, tablet personal computers (PCs), and laptop computers, various wearable devices (e.g., earphones, headsets, smartwatches, or smart glasses) that can be connected to other electronic devices or used independently have emerged. Wireless audio output devices (e.g., wireless earphones) can receive audio data from electronic devices such as smartphones via wireless communication. Because wireless audio output devices do not include cables for electrical connection, they may be equipped with a battery to provide the necessary power. The electronic device and the wireless audio output device may be connected via a wired interface (e.g., a connector connection) or a wireless interface (e.g., a Bluetooth™ connection). The wireless audio output device may include double-ear, detachable wireless earphones that operate in pairs. For example, wireless earphones may include a first earbud (or earpiece) and a second earbud, each worn on a user's left and right ears.

[0003] The wireless audio output device may be stored within a separate electronic device (e.g., a charging case) to prevent loss while not in use, and the battery of the wireless audio output device may be charged while the wireless audio output device is stored within the separate electronic device. For example, the wireless audio output device may be stored by being at least partially inserted and seated within a recess or receiving space provided within the separate electronic device, and the battery of the wireless audio output device may be charged by electrically connecting the conductive pins arranged within the separate electronic device to the conductive connector of the wireless audio output device by making contact.

[0004] The above information may be provided as background art to aid in understanding the present disclosure. No claim or determination is made as to whether any of the above is applicable as prior art in connection with the present disclosure.

[0005] An electronic device according to one embodiment may include a first audio device that is wearable on a user's body and includes a first sensor that responds to magnetism, and a charging device that accommodates the first audio device and charges the accommodated first audio device.

[0006] The charging device may include a housing, a receiving member disposed within the housing, a second sensor responsive to magnetism disposed within the receiving member, a cover rotatably connected to the housing via a hinge, a first magnetic body that maintains a seating state of the first audio device seated on the receiving member, a second magnetic body that is disposed on a first edge portion of the hinge among edge portions of the cover and provides a magnetic force to the first sensor, a third magnetic body that is disposed on a second edge portion of the cover opposite the hinge and provides a magnetic force to the second sensor, a fourth magnetic body that provides a magnetic force to the first sensor and cancels at least a portion of the magnetic force of the second magnetic body affecting the first sensor and is disposed within the receiving member adjacent to the first sensor and the hinge, and a fifth magnetic body that provides a magnetic force to the second sensor and cancels at least a portion of the magnetic force of the first magnetic body affecting the second sensor and is disposed within the receiving member adjacent to the second sensor and the second edge portion.

[0035] The present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the attached drawings below.

[0036] FIG. 1 is a drawing showing an electronic device (1) in which an audio device is accommodated according to one embodiment.

[0037] Referring to FIG. 1, an electronic device (1) according to one embodiment may include a first audio device (10) wearable on a user's body and a charging device (100) in which the first audio device (10) is accommodated. For example, the charging device (100) may charge the accommodated first audio device (10).

[0038] A charging device (100) according to one embodiment may include a housing (300), a receiving member (200), and a cover (400). For example, the receiving member (200) may be disposed within the housing (300). For example, the first audio device (10) may be received in the receiving member (200). For example, the first audio device (10) may be seated in a state in which at least a portion of the first audio device (10) protrudes from the receiving member (200) while being received in the receiving member (200). For example, the cover (400) may be rotatably connected to the housing (300) via a hinge (401). For example, the cover (400) may cover an upper surface (e.g., a surface in the +X direction of FIG. 1) of the housing (300). For example, the cover (400) may be rotated via the hinge (401) to open and close the housing (300). For example, when the cover (400) is closed relative to the housing (300), a gap space may be formed between the cover (400) and the receiving member (200). For example, when the cover (400) is closed relative to the housing (300), at least a portion of the edge portion (410) of the cover (400) may correspond to the upper (e.g., +X direction of FIG. 1) edge portion (410) of the housing (300).

[0039] According to one embodiment, a first magnetic body (1010) may be placed inside a charging device (100) to maintain the placement of a first audio device (10) mounted on a receiving member (200). For example, the first magnetic body (1010) may be placed on the lower side (e.g., in the -X direction of FIG. 1) of the first audio device (10) while the first audio device (10) is accommodated in the receiving member (200).

[0040] According to one embodiment, a first audio device (10) may include a first sensor (11) that responds to magnetism. According to one embodiment, and a charging device (100) may include a second sensor (301) that responds to magnetism. For example, the first sensor (11) and the second sensor (301) may be configured as Hall sensors that respond to magnetism through the Hall effect (a phenomenon in which a voltage difference occurs at both terminals of a conductor when a magnetic field of a magnet acts perpendicularly to a current-flowing conductor or semiconductor). For example, the first audio device (10) may be activated based on a polarity change to which the first sensor (11) responds. For example, the charging device (100) may be activated based on a polarity change to which the second sensor (301) responds. Details regarding the polarity change to which the first sensor (11) and the second sensor (301) respond will be described later with reference to FIG. 14.

[0041] According to one embodiment, a cover (400) may be provided with a second magnetic body (1020) that provides a magnetic force to a first sensor (11). For example, the second magnetic body (1020) may be provided on a border portion (410) of the cover (400). For example, the second magnetic body (1020) may be provided on a hinge (401) of the cover (400). For example, the second magnetic body (1020) may be provided on a first border portion (411) of the hinge (401) that forms a part of the border portion (410) of the cover (400). For example, the second magnetic body (1020) may be provided adjacent to the first sensor (11).

[0042] According to one embodiment, a cover (400) may be provided with a third magnetic body (1030) that provides magnetic force to a second sensor (301). For example, the third magnetic body (1030) may be provided on a border portion (410) of the cover (400). For example, the third magnetic body (1030) may be provided adjacent to the second sensor (301).

[0043] According to one embodiment, a fourth magnetic body (1040) and a fifth magnetic body (1050) may be arranged in the receiving member (200). For example, the fourth magnetic body (1040) may provide a magnetic force to the first sensor (11). For example, the fourth magnetic body (1040) may cancel at least a portion of the magnetic force of the second magnetic body (1020) that reacts to the first sensor (11). For example, the fifth magnetic body (1050) may provide a magnetic force to the second sensor (301). For example, the fifth magnetic body (1050) may cancel at least a portion of the magnetic force of the first magnetic body (1010) that reacts to the second sensor (301).

[0044] Accordingly, by arranging the fourth magnetic body (1040) and the fifth magnetic body (1050) in the receiving member (200), the influence of the magnetic force of the first magnetic body (1010) on the first sensor (11) and the second sensor (301) is reduced, and the first sensor (11) and the second sensor (301) can effectively detect the opening and closing of the cover (400) for the housing (300).

For example, the eighth magnetic body (1080) may be positioned corresponding to the sixth magnetic body (1060) when the cover (400) is closed relative to the housing (300). For example, the ninth magnetic body (1090) may be positioned corresponding to the seventh magnetic body (1070) when the cover (400) is closed relative to the housing (300). For example, the cover (400) can be maintained in a closed state with respect to the housing (300) by an attractive force acting between the sixth magnetic body (1060) and the eighth magnetic body (1080) and an attractive force acting between the seventh magnetic body (1070) and the ninth magnetic body (1090).

[0070] Fig. 13 is a drawing of sensors and magnetic materials arranged inside an electronic device (1) according to one embodiment. Fig. 14 is a drawing showing the arrangement and polarity of magnetic materials according to the rotation angle of a cover (400) according to one embodiment. Fig. 14 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line A-A' of Fig. 7.

[0071] Referring to FIGS. 13 and 14, the first audio device (10) according to one embodiment can be activated (e.g., the power of the first audio device (10) is turned on) based on a change in the polarity of the magnetic force to which the first sensor (11) responds. For example, the polarity of the magnetic force around the first sensor (11) to which the first sensor (11) responds can change as the cover (400) rotates with respect to the housing (300). For example, as illustrated in FIG. 14, the polarity of the magnetic force acting on the first sensor (11) can change depending on the angle at which the cover (400) closes or opens with respect to the housing (300). The change in the polarity of the magnetic force acting on the first sensor (11) will be described later with reference to FIGS. 15 and 16.

[0072] For example, referring to FIGS. 13 and 14, the second magnetic body (1020) that provides magnetic force to the first sensor (11) may be arranged so that the first pole (e.g., the N pole) of the second magnetic body (1020) faces the first sensor (11) when the cover (400) is closed with respect to the housing (300). For example, the first magnetic body (1010) that maintains the stability of the first audio device (10) may be arranged so that the first pole (e.g., the N pole) faces the lower side of the electronic device (1) (e.g., the -X direction of FIG. 14) and the second pole (e.g., the S pole) faces the upper side of the electronic device (1) (e.g., the +X direction of FIG. 14). For example, the first sensor (11) may be arranged at a position adjacent to the second pole (e.g., the S pole) of the first magnetic body (1010). For example, a fourth magnetic body (1040) that provides a magnetic force to the first sensor (11) and at least partially cancels out the magnetic force of the second magnetic body (1020) that reacts to the first sensor (11) may be positioned so that the second pole (e.g., the S pole) faces the first sensor (11).

[0073] According to one embodiment, the charging device (100) can be activated or deactivated (e.g., turning the charging device (100) on or off) based on a change in polarity to which the second sensor (301) responds. For example, the polarity of the magnetic force to which the second sensor (301) responds can change as the cover (400) rotates relative to the housing (300). The change in polarity of the magnetic force to which the second sensor (301) responds is described later in FIGS. 17 and 18 .

[0074] For example, referring to FIGS. 13 and 14, the third magnetic body (1030) that provides a magnetic force to the second sensor (301) may be positioned so that the first pole (e.g., the N pole) faces the second sensor (301) when the cover (400) is closed with respect to the housing (300). For example, the first magnetic body (1010) that maintains the stability of the first audio device (10) may be positioned so that the first pole (e.g., the N pole) faces the lower side of the electronic device (1) (e.g., the -X direction of FIG. 14) and the second pole (e.g., the S pole) faces the upper side of the electronic device (1) (e.g., the +X direction of FIG. 14). For example, the first sensor (11) may be positioned adjacent to the first pole (e.g., the N pole) of the first magnetic body (1010). For example, a fifth magnetic body (1050) that provides a magnetic force to the second sensor (301) and at least partially cancels out the magnetic force of the first magnetic body (1010) that reacts to the second sensor (301) may be positioned so that its second pole (e.g., S pole) faces the first sensor (11).

[0075] FIG. 15 is a drawing for explaining the operation of the first sensor (11) according to the rotation angle of the cover (400) when the fourth magnetic body (1040) is not arranged in the receiving member (200) according to one embodiment. FIG. 16 is a drawing for explaining the operation of the first sensor (11) according to the rotation angle of the cover (400) when the fourth magnetic body (1040) is arranged in the receiving member (200) according to one embodiment. FIGS. 15 and 16 are cross-sectional views taken along the line A-A' of FIG. 7.

[0076] For example, the first magnetic body (1010) may have a stronger magnetic force than the second magnetic body (1020) or the fourth magnetic body (1040).

[0077] In a case where the fourth magnetic body (1040) is not arranged within the receiving member (200) according to one embodiment, the first sensor (11) can react to the first pole (e.g., the N pole) from the state in which the cover (400) is closed to the housing (300) to the state in which it is fully open. For example, the first sensor (11) can react to the first pole (e.g., the N pole) by a magnetic path formed by the first magnetic body (1010) and the second magnetic body (1020) from the state in which the cover (400) is closed to the housing (300) to the state in which it is fully open. For example, the first sensor (11) can react only to the first pole (e.g., the N pole) of the second magnetic body (1020) due to the influence of the first magnetic body (1010). For example, the first audio device (10) may not be activated (e.g., an On / Off signal of the first audio device (10) is generated by the first sensor (11)) when the cover (400) is opened at an angle greater than a first angle (e.g., 45 degrees) with respect to the housing (300).

[0078] When a fourth magnetic body (1040) is arranged within the receiving member (200) according to one embodiment, the first sensor (11) can react to the first pole (e.g., N pole) of the second magnetic body (1020) from a state in which the cover (400) is closed with respect to the housing (300) to a state in which the cover (400) is opened at a first angle (e.g., 45 degrees) with respect to the housing (300). For example, the first sensor (11) can react to the first pole (e.g., N pole) by a magnetic path formed by the first magnetic body (1010) and the second magnetic body (1020) from a state in which the cover (400) is closed with respect to the housing (300) to a state in which the cover (400) is opened at a first angle (e.g., 45 degrees) with respect to the housing (300). For example, the first audio device (10) may not be activated (e.g., an On / Off signal of the first audio device (10) is generated by the first sensor (11)) from a state in which the cover (400) is closed relative to the housing (300) to a state in which the cover (400) is opened at a first angle (e.g., 45 degrees) relative to the housing (300).

[0079] When a fourth magnetic body (1040) is arranged within the receiving member (200) according to one embodiment, the first sensor (11) can react to a second pole (e.g., an S pole) opposite to the first pole (e.g., an N pole) of the fourth magnetic body (1040) when the cover (400) is opened at an angle greater than a first angle (e.g., 45 degrees) with respect to the housing (300). For example, the first sensor (11) can react to the second pole (e.g., an S pole) by a magnetic path formed by the first magnetic body (1010), the second magnetic body (1020), and the fourth magnetic body (1040) when the cover (400) is opened at an angle greater than the first angle (e.g., 45 degrees) with respect to the housing (300). For example, the fourth magnetic body (1040) can change the magnetic path formed by the first magnetic body (1010) and the second magnetic body (1020) when the cover (400) is opened at an angle greater than a first angle (e.g., 45 degrees) with respect to the housing (300), and cause the first sensor (11) to react to the second pole (e.g., S pole) of the fourth magnetic body (1040). For example, the first audio device (10) can be activated (e.g., generation of an On / Off signal of the first audio device (10) by the first sensor (11)) when the cover (400) is opened at an angle greater than a first angle (e.g., 45 degrees) with respect to the housing (300).

[0080] FIG. 17 is a drawing for explaining the operation of the second sensor (301) according to the rotation angle of the cover (400) when the fifth magnetic body (1050) is not arranged in the receiving member (200) according to one embodiment. FIG. 18 is a drawing for explaining the operation of the second sensor (301) when the fifth magnetic body (1050) is arranged in the receiving member (200) according to one embodiment. FIGS. 17 and 18 are cross-sectional views taken along the line A-A' of FIG. 7.

[0081] For example, the first magnetic body (1010) may have a stronger magnetic force than the third magnetic body (1030) or the fifth magnetic body (1050).

[0082] In a case where the fifth magnetic body (1050) is not disposed within the receiving member (200) according to one embodiment, the second sensor (301) may respond to the first pole (e.g., the N pole) when the cover (400) is closed with respect to the housing (300). For example, the second sensor (301) may respond to the second pole (e.g., the S pole) at an angle (e.g., 3 degrees) less than the second angle (e.g., 12 degrees) when the cover (400) is closed with respect to the housing (300). For example, the second sensor (301) may respond to the first pole (e.g., the N pole) by a magnetic path formed by the first magnetic body (1010) and the third magnetic body (1030) when the cover (400) is closed with respect to the housing (300). For example, the second sensor (301) may react to the second pole (e.g., the S pole) by a magnetic path formed by the first magnetic body (1010) and the third magnetic body (1030) at an angle (e.g., 3 degrees) less than the second angle (e.g., 12 degrees) of the cover (400) with respect to the housing (300). For example, the charging device (100) may be activated (e.g., by generating an On / Off signal of the charging device (100) by the second sensor (301)) at an angle (e.g., 3 degrees) less than the second angle (e.g., 12 degrees) of the cover (400) with respect to the housing (300).

[0083] When the fifth magnetic body (1050) is arranged within the receiving member (200) according to one embodiment, the second sensor (301) can react to the first pole (e.g., the N pole) of the third magnetic body (1030) from a state in which the cover (400) is closed with respect to the housing (300) to a state in which the cover (400) is opened at a second angle (e.g., 12 degrees) with respect to the housing (300). For example, the second sensor (301) can react to the first pole (e.g., the N pole) by a magnetic path formed by the first magnetic body (1010), the third magnetic body (1030), and the fifth magnetic body (1050) from a state in which the cover (400) is closed with respect to the housing (300) to a state in which the cover (400) is opened at a second angle (e.g., 12 degrees) with respect to the housing (300). For example, the fifth magnetic body (1050) can change the magnetic path formed by the first magnetic body (1010) and the third magnetic body (1030) from a state where the cover (400) is closed relative to the housing (300) to a state where the cover (400) is opened at a second angle (e.g., 12 degrees) relative to the housing (300), and cause the second sensor (301) to react to the (e.g., N pole) of the third magnetic body (1030). For example, the charging device (100) can be activated (e.g., generation of an On / Off signal of the charging device (100) by the second sensor (301)) when the cover (400) is opened at a second angle (e.g., 12 degrees) or more relative to the housing (300).

[0084] Fig. 19 is a drawing for explaining how the sensing surface (305) of the second sensor (301) is arranged to have an incline according to one embodiment. Fig. 19 is a cross-sectional view taken along the line A-A' of Fig. 7.

[0085] Referring to FIG. 19, the second sensor (301) may include a sensing surface (305) that responds to a magnetic force. For example, the sensing surface (305) may be arranged to have a tilt at a third angle (e.g., 25 degrees) with respect to a first direction (e.g., the -X direction of FIG. 19). For example, the second sensor (301) may respond to the first pole of the third magnetic body (1030) from a state in which the cover (400) is closed relative to the housing (300) to a state in which the cover (400) is opened at the second angle relative to the housing (300) by having the sensing surface (305) tilted at the third angle (e.g., 25 degrees).

[0086] Fig. 20 is a plan view of an electronic device (1) according to various embodiments. Fig. 21 is a drawing for explaining detailed locations of sensors and magnetic materials arranged in an electronic device (1) according to various embodiments. Fig. 21 is a cross-sectional view taken along line B-B' of Fig. 20.

[0087] Referring to FIGS. 20 and 21, the electronic device (1) according to various embodiments may have the magnetic pole arrangement of FIG. 14 reversed. For example, in a cross-section taken along the B-B' portion, the second magnetic body (1020) that provides magnetic force to the first sensor (11) may be arranged so that the second pole (e.g., the S pole) faces the first sensor (11) when the cover (400) is closed with respect to the housing (300). For example, in a cross-section taken along the B-B' portion, the first magnetic body (1010) that maintains the fixation of the first audio device (10) may be arranged so that the second pole (e.g., the S pole) faces the lower side of the electronic device (1) (e.g., the -X direction of FIG. 14) and the first pole (e.g., the N pole) faces the upper side of the electronic device (1) (e.g., the +X direction of FIG. 14). For example, the first sensor (11) may be positioned adjacent to the second pole (e.g., S pole) of the first magnetic body (1010). For example, in a cross-section taken along the line B-B', the fourth magnetic body (1040) that provides a magnetic force to the first sensor (11) and at least partially cancels out the magnetic force of the second magnetic body (1020) that reacts to the first sensor (11) may be positioned so that the first pole (e.g., N pole) faces the first sensor (11).

[0088] For example, in a cross-section taken along the B-B' portion, the third magnetic body (1030) that provides magnetic force to the second sensor (301) may be arranged so that the second pole (e.g., the S pole) faces the second sensor (301) when the cover (400) is closed with respect to the housing (300). For example, in a cross-section taken along the B-B' portion, the first magnetic body (1010) that maintains the fixation of the first audio device (10) may be arranged so that the second pole (e.g., the S pole) faces the lower side of the electronic device (1) (e.g., the -X direction in FIG. 14) and the first pole (e.g., the N pole) faces the upper side of the electronic device (1) (e.g., the +X direction in FIG. 14). For example, the first sensor (11) may be arranged at a position adjacent to the second pole (e.g., the S pole) of the first magnetic body (1010). For example, in a cross-section cut along the B-B' section, a fifth magnetic body (1050) that provides a magnetic force to the second sensor (301) and at least partially cancels out the magnetic force of the first magnetic body (1010) that reacts to the second sensor (301) may be arranged so that the first pole (e.g., the N pole) faces the first sensor (11).

[0089] Meanwhile, referring to FIG. 1, an electronic device (1) according to one embodiment may include a first audio device (10) wearable on a user's body, a second audio device (20) wearable on a user's body, and a charging device (100) in which the first audio device (10) and the second audio device (20) are accommodated. For example, the charging device (100) may charge the accommodated first audio device (10) and second audio device (20).

[0090] For example, the first audio device (10) and the second audio device (20) may be accommodated in the receiving member (200). For example, the first audio device (10) and the second audio device (20) may be arranged in a state in which at least a portion thereof protrudes from the receiving member (200) while being accommodated in the receiving member (200).

[0091] According to one embodiment, a charging device (100) may be disposed inside a first magnetic body (1010) that maintains the placement of a first audio device (10) mounted on a receiving member (200) and a tenth magnetic body (1100) that maintains the placement of a second audio device (20) mounted on the receiving member (200). For example, the first magnetic body (1010) may be disposed on the lower side (e.g., in the -X direction of FIG. 1) of the first audio device (10) when the first audio device (10) is accommodated in the receiving member (200). For example, the tenth magnetic body (1100) may be disposed on the lower side (e.g., in the -X direction of FIG. 1) of the second audio device (20) when the second audio device (20) is accommodated in the receiving member (200).

[0092] A second audio device (20) according to one embodiment may include a third sensor (21) that responds to magnetism. For example, the third sensor (21) may be configured as a Hall sensor that responds to magnetism through the Hall effect (a phenomenon in which a voltage difference occurs at both terminals of a conductor or semiconductor when a magnetic field of a magnet acts perpendicularly to a current-carrying conductor or semiconductor). For example, the second audio device (20) may be activated based on a change in polarity to which the third sensor (21) responds.

[0093] According to one embodiment, a cover (400) may include a second magnetic body (1020) that provides magnetic force to the first sensor (11) and the third sensor (21). For example, the second magnetic body (1020) may be disposed on a border portion (410) of the cover (400). For example, the second magnetic body (1020) may be disposed on a hinge (401). For example, the second magnetic body (1020) may be disposed on a first border portion (411) of the hinge (401). For example, the second magnetic body (1020) may be accommodated in a first groove (421) formed on the first border portion (411) of the hinge (401). For example, the first border portion (411) may be located on an upper side of the hinge (e.g., in the +X direction of FIG. 6). For example, the second magnet (1020) may be placed adjacent to the first sensor (11) and the third sensor (21).

[0094] Referring to FIG. 2, a second audio device (20) according to one embodiment may include a head portion (23) of the second audio device (20) and a grip portion (25) of the second audio device (20). For example, the second audio device (20) may output sound through at least a portion of the head portion (23) of the second audio device (20). For example, the grip portion (25) of the second audio device (20) may have a shape extending from at least a portion of the head portion (23) of the second audio device (20). For example, the third sensor (21) may be disposed inside the head portion (23) of the second audio device (20).

[0095] According to one embodiment, the receiving member (200) may include a first receiving portion (210) and a second receiving portion. For example, a first recess (211) and a third recess (213) may be formed in the first receiving portion (210). For example, a second recess (221) and a fourth recess (223) may be formed in the second receiving portion (220).

[0096] According to one embodiment, the second audio device (20) may be mounted in the third recess (213) and the fourth recess (223). For example, the head portion (23) of the second audio device (20) may be mounted in the third recess (213). For example, the grip portion (25) of the second audio device (20) may be mounted in the fourth recess (223). For example, the second audio device (20) may be accommodated such that the head portion (23) of the second audio device (20) faces the hinge (401) of the cover (400) (e.g., the +Z direction in FIG. 4) and the grip portion (25) of the second audio device (20) faces the front of the accommodation member (200) (e.g., the -Z direction in FIG. 4).

[0097] Referring to FIG. 9, a second receiving portion (220) according to one embodiment may be fastened to a lower side (e.g., in the -X direction of FIG. 3) of a first receiving portion (210). For example, a third recess (213) may be formed in the first receiving portion (210) into which a head portion (23) of a second audio device (20) is seated. For example, a fourth recess (223) may be formed in the second receiving portion (220) into which a grip portion (25) of the second audio device (20) is seated. For example, the third recess (213) may have a shape in which at least a portion of the first receiving portion (210) is sunken toward the inside of the housing (300) (e.g., in the -X direction of FIG. 9). For example, the fourth recess (223) may have a shape in which at least a portion of the second receiving portion (220) is sunken toward the inside of the housing (300) (e.g., in the -X direction of FIG. 9), but one side facing the front of the housing (300) (e.g., in the -Z direction of FIG. 9) is open. For example, the open portion of the fourth recess (223) may be closed by a rubber member (520).

[0098] For example, at least a portion of the head portion (23) of the second audio device (20) may be formed in a shape corresponding to the shape of the third recess (213). For example, when the second audio device (20) is accommodated in the receiving member (200), the third recess (213) may support at least a portion of the head portion (13) of the first audio device (10). For example, at least a portion of the grip portion (25) of the second audio device (20) may be formed in a shape corresponding to the shape of the fourth recess (223). For example, when the second audio device (20) is accommodated in the receiving member (200), the fourth recess (223) may surround at least a portion of the grip portion (15) of the first audio device (10). For example, the third recess (213) and the fourth recess (223) can be formed so that at least some space is connected while the first receiving portion (210) and the second receiving portion (220) are connected.

[0099] Referring to FIGS. 3 and 9, the first receiving portion (210) according to one embodiment may include a connecting portion (215).

For example, the connecting portion (215) may be positioned between the first edge portion (411) and the second edge portion (412) of the cover (400).

[0100] According to one embodiment, the fourth magnetic body (1040) may be positioned adjacent to the first sensor (11) and the second magnetic body (1020) between the connecting portion (215) and the hinge (401). According to one embodiment, the fifth magnetic body (1050) may be positioned adjacent to the second sensor (301) and the first magnetic body (1010) between the connecting portion (215) and the hinge (401).

A second magnetic body (1020) is arranged and provides a magnetic force to the first sensor (11), a third magnetic body (1030) is arranged on a second edge portion (412) of the edge portion (410) of the cover (400) that faces the hinge (401) and provides a magnetic force to the second sensor (301), a fourth magnetic body (1040) is arranged within the receiving member (200) so as to be adjacent to the first sensor (11) and the hinge (401) and a fifth magnetic body (1040) is arranged within the receiving member (200) so as to be adjacent to the second sensor (301) and the second edge portion (412) and provides a magnetic force to the first sensor (11) and cancels at least a portion of the magnetic force of the second magnetic body (1010) that affects the second sensor (301). It may include a magnetic body (1050).
