Description

Earphone device

Technical Field

The present disclosure relates to a headset device.

Background

As a wearable audio playing device, such as a headphone device, which is widely used, users' demands for comfort thereof are continuously increasing. However, satisfactory results in terms of comfort of the product are often not obtained due to differences in the physical form of the user, in particular, differences in the ear structure, or due to differences in wearing habits. In existing designs, in-ear headphones are often provided with a plurality of earplugs of different sizes in order to obtain a satisfactory wearing effect for the user. However, there is no satisfactory design solution for the ear phones to solve this problem. When wearing the ear-mounted earphone device, it is necessary to wear the ear-mounted portion above the auricle of the user, while the device body connected thereto is brought into close contact with the outside of the auditory canal. If the ear of the user is too small or too large, the device body of a conventional ear-mounted earphone often cannot be aimed in the direction of the ear canal, which is either too high or too low, which on the one hand results in loosening of the ear-mounted earphone and even in the earphone device being dropped and damaged, on the other hand makes it difficult for the user to obtain a good acoustic effect.

In some embodiments according to the present disclosure, the device housing includes a housing upper portion and a housing lower portion, the housing lower portion including a rotational shaft, the receiving section including a central bore, the rotational shaft being rotatably received in the central bore, thereby allowing the receiving section to rotate relative to the device housing. Preferably, the rotation shaft is rotationally fixed with respect to the lower part of the housing.

In some embodiments according to the present disclosure, a circumferential groove is provided in an outer peripheral portion of the apparatus housing through which a transition section is passable, wherein the transition section is movably arranged in the circumferential groove, thereby allowing the accommodation section to rotate relative to the apparatus housing.

As shown in fig. 1 to 3, the earphone device of the present disclosure includes a device main body 1 and an ear hook 2 connected thereto.

The ear hook 2 may in this embodiment be formed from a resilient flexible material and have a hook-like configuration so as to fit snugly over the upper part of the pinna of the user.

The device body 1 includes a connection section 11 and a device housing 12. The connection section 11 is directly connected to the ear hook 2, while the device housing 12 is rotatably connected with respect to the ear hook 2. It is to be noted that in the example shown in fig. 1, the connection section 11 is fixedly connected to the ear hook 2 in a rotationally fixed manner, while in an alternative embodiment, not shown, the connection section 11 can also be connected in a rotationally fixed manner with respect to the ear hook 2 with an additional degree of freedom.

As shown in fig. 1 to 3, the connecting section 11 comprises a transition section 111 which is directly connected to the ear hook 2 and a receiving region 112 which is connected to the transition section 111, wherein the receiving region 112 can be constructed in one piece with the transition section 111, for example by injection molding, casting, or can be connected by means of material bonding such as adhesive bonding.

The device housing 12 comprises a housing upper part 121 and a housing lower part 122, wherein the housing upper part 121 and the housing lower part 122 can be fixedly connected and jointly enclose an inner cavity of the device housing. Functional elements of the earphone device, such as an earphone driver, a battery, an acoustic element, etc., are accommodated in the inner cavity.

The housing upper part 121 and the housing lower part 122 have substantially the same bottom shape, in the embodiment shown they have a substantially racetrack-like shape, i.e. they each have a semicircular outer contour at both ends and they are connected tangentially by two parallel straight sections.

The housing upper part 121 includes a top cover 121a, and the top cover 121a is similar in shape to the housing upper part 121 and/or the housing lower part 122, but has a slightly smaller area.

Fig. 2 shows a perspective view of the housing upper part 121 with the top cover 121a removed. Fig. 3 shows an individual view of the ear hook 2 and the connecting section 11 connected thereto. Fig. 4 shows an isolated view of the housing lower portion 122.

As shown in fig. 2 to 4, the transition section 111 of the connection section 11 extends outside the device housing 12 and is connected directly to the ear hook 2. The receiving section 112 is then arranged inside the interior of the device housing 12.

In an alternative embodiment, the housing upper part 121 and the housing lower part 122 are each provided with recesses of the circumferential wall at mutually corresponding peripheral parts, which recesses are mutually aligned so as to together form the circumferential groove 125 of the device housing 12. From this circumferential groove 125, the transition section 111 extends out of the device housing 12. And since the circumferential groove 125 extends more in the circumferential direction than the transition section 111 extends in this direction, the transition section 111 can be movably accommodated in the circumferential groove 125 in order to allow rotation of the device housing 12 relative to the earhook 2.

The receiving section 112 comprises a generally circular profile and has a through central bore 113 in its middle. The receiving section 112 further comprises a receiving groove 114 oriented perpendicularly to the center line of the central bore 113 for receiving the stop pin 3.

The housing lower part 122 comprises a rotation pin 123 which is rotationally fixed relative to the housing lower part 122. The rotation pin 123 may be integrally formed with the housing lower portion 122, for example, by injection molding, casting, or the like, or may be fixedly connected by caulking, screwing, bonding, or the like. The rotation pin 123 has a substantially cylindrical profile, and in the illustrated embodiment, the rotation pin 123 is preferably provided on its outer peripheral surface with a plurality of ribs protruding radially outward. The diameter of the circumcircle to which the outer circumferential surface of the rib is connected corresponds to the inner diameter of the central bore 113, so that the rotation pin 123 can be accommodated in the central bore 113 and rotated about the axis x of the central bore 113, so that a rotational connection of the accommodation section 112 with respect to the housing lower part 122 and thus of the connection section 11 with respect to the device housing 12 is achieved, in order to allow the device housing 12 to be oriented at different angles in a rotational manner with respect to the earhook 2.

By rotation of the device housing 12 relative to the ear hook 2, the position of the device housing 12 at the ear of the user can be adjusted to suit the physical condition of the user with better ergonomic characteristics, providing better wearing comfort for the user.

The earphone device further comprises stop means acting between the connection section 11 and the device housing 12, thereby fixing the angular position between the connection section 11 and the device housing 12.

In the embodiment shown, a receiving groove 114 extending perpendicular to the axial direction of the central bore is provided in the receiving section 112, in which receiving groove 114 the retaining pin 3 can be accommodated; on the lower housing part 122, an adjustment stop 124 is formed, and the angular position between the connecting section 11 and the device housing 12 is fixed by the cooperation of the locking pin 3 and the adjustment stop 124.

The stopper pin 3 includes a cylindrical pin housing 31, a spring member 32 accommodated in the pin housing 31, and a stopper ball 33 which is retractable in the longitudinal direction of the pin housing 31 by the spring member 32. The adjustment stop 124 then has a plurality of stops, in the illustrated embodiment three stops, namely a first stop 124a, a second stop 124b and a third stop 124c, which can receive the stop ball 33 in a form-fitting manner.

The pin housing 31 of the locking pin 3 rests with its bottom against the bottom of the receiving groove 114 and, by the pretensioning force of the spring element 32, the locking ball 33 is pressed against one of the adjustment stops 124, so that the rotation of the connecting section 11 relative to the housing lower part 122 is prevented, and the relative angular position between the two is maintained. When it is desired to adjust the angular position of the connection section 11 relative to the device housing 12, the device housing 12 is rotated slightly with force, so that the stop ball 33 is retracted into the pin housing 31 against the spring preload, thereby releasing the limitation of the rotation of the connection section 11 relative to the device housing 12. When the stop ball 33 moves into an adjacent stop as the connection section 11 rotates relative to the device housing 12, it is again locked in this stop by the spring element, thus locking the new angular position.

In alternative embodiments, not shown, more stops, for example four, five or even more stops, may also be provided to more finely adjust the rotation of the connection section 11 relative to the device housing 12.
