Both the first through-hole 131 and the second through-hole 132 have a cross-sectional size smaller than that of the stepped hole 133. The boss 140 is located in the inner cavity of the casing 100, the boss 140 is connected to the inner surface 120 of the casing 100, the boss 140 protrudes a certain height relative to the inner surface 120, and the shape of the boss 140 may be substantially rectangular. The first through hole 131 and the second through hole 132 are spaced apart from each other such that the first through hole 131 and the second through hole 132 are respectively disposed at opposite sides of the boss 140. The stepped hole 133 is formed by a portion of the outer surface 110 of the housing 100 being recessed to a predetermined depth toward the inner surface 120, and the stepped hole 133 may be a substantially curved racetrack-shaped hole, but the stepped hole 133 may also be an elliptical hole or other regular polygonal hole.

When the contact piece 330 is fitted to the stepped hole 133, the contact surface 331 is brought into smooth abutment with both the exterior surfaces 110 of the housing 100. For example, the tangent planes of the contact surface 331 and the appearance surface 110 at the interface coincide with each other, in colloquial terms, such that the contact surface 331 and the appearance surface 110 are "flush" with each other. In fact, the outer surface of the whole earphone 10 includes the contact surface 331 of the contact piece 330 and the outer surface 110 of the casing 100, and when the contact surface 331 and the outer surface 110 are smoothly butted, the uneven structure on the outer surface of the whole earphone 10 can be eliminated, so that the outer surface of the whole earphone 10 is smoothly transited everywhere, the defects that the outer surface of the earphone 10 is concave or convex due to the fact that the contact surface 331 and the outer surface 110 cannot be flush are avoided, the outer surface of the earphone 10 forms a muddy integral visual feeling, and the integrity of the outer surface of the earphone 10 is well ensured.

The first connecting section 311 is inserted into the first through hole 131. The second connecting section 312 abuts between the second elastic sheet 302 and the boss 140, when the second elastic sheet 302 exerts abutting force on the second connecting section 312, the second connecting section 312 can be clamped between the boss 140 and the second elastic sheet 302, obviously, the mounting stability of the whole first elastic sheet 301 can be improved to a certain extent through the abutting and limiting effects of the boss 140 and the second connecting section 312, and the whole first elastic sheet 301 is prevented from being withdrawn from the limiting hole 130 under the abutting force of the second elastic sheet 302. In fact, the second connecting section 312 has two surfaces facing opposite directions, one of the surfaces is denoted as a first abutting surface 312a, the first abutting surface 312a is disposed toward the second spring plate 302, the first abutting surface 312a directly contacts with the second spring plate 302 to form an abutting relationship, and the other surface directly abuts against the boss 140 to abut against the surface of the boss 140. Meanwhile, the first connecting section 311 can also be tightly attached to the boss 140, so that the whole first connecting piece 310 has a certain coating effect on the boss 140, and the mounting stability of the first elastic piece 301 is further improved.

The second connecting piece 320 may be bent such that a portion of the second connecting piece 320 is inserted into the first through hole 131 and another portion of the second connecting piece 320 abuts against the inner surface 120 of the casing 100. Through the abutting relation between the second connecting piece 320 and the inner surface 120, the interference between the first elastic piece 301 and the shell 100 can be further increased, the whole first elastic piece 301 is prevented from being withdrawn from the limiting hole 130 under the abutting force of the second elastic piece 302, and the mounting stability of the whole first elastic piece 301 is further improved.

Because the first abutting surface 312a is a plane and the area is larger than the second abutting surface 351 which is a circular arc curved surface, in the process of abutting the first elastic sheet 301 and the second elastic sheet 302, the second abutting surface 351 which is a circular arc curved surface can smoothly slide relative to the first abutting surface 312a which is a plane, so that the frictional resistance between the first elastic sheet 301 and the second elastic sheet 302 is reduced, and the abutting positions can be smoothly found by the first elastic sheet 301 and the second elastic sheet 302. Meanwhile, the area of the first abutting surface 312a is relatively large, so that a sufficient space can be provided for the contact between the first abutting surface 312a and the second abutting surface 351, the second abutting surface 351 is prevented from being unable to contact with the first abutting surface 312a, a stable elastic force is ensured to exist between the first elastic sheet 301 and the second elastic sheet 302, and finally, the stability of the conduction of the whole charging assembly 300 is improved.
If the charging assembly 300 employs a copper post that mates with a circular hole in the housing 100, typically, the end surface of the copper post is not designed to be "flush" with the exterior surface 110. Even if make the terminal surface of copper post and the outward appearance face 110 parallel and level of casing 100 in the design, however, in the welding process of copper post and circuit board 200, the copper post can produce the rotation and lead to installation error relative to the round hole to change the position of copper post terminal surface, including casing 100's outward appearance face 110 is the curved surface usually, make the terminal surface of this copper post after the installation accomplish unable and the parallel and level of outward appearance face 110.

On the one hand, the uneven structure on the outer surface of the earphone 10 can be prevented, the visual perception of the whole body formed on the outer surface of the earphone 10 is ensured, and the integrity of the outer surface of the earphone 10 is improved.

Therefore, after glue is solidified to form the glue joint layer, on the one hand, the glue joint layer can play a good sealing effect for the gap, so that external liquid drops and dust are prevented from entering the shell 100 through the gap, erosion of the liquid drops and the dust on parts such as the circuit board 200 of the shell 100 is avoided, and the service life of the whole earphone 10 is prolonged. On the other hand, the adhesive layer can fix the first elastic sheet 301 on the housing 100, so that the installation stability of the first elastic sheet 301 is improved, and the first elastic sheet 301 is prevented from shaking relative to the housing 100, so that the first elastic sheet 301, the second elastic sheet 302 and the charging terminal are in good contact with each other, and the conductive stability of the whole charging assembly 300 is ensured.
The second elastic sheet 302 is fixed on the circuit board 200, and the first elastic sheet 301 is abutted against the second elastic sheet 302, so that the first elastic sheet 301 and the second elastic sheet 302 are prevented from forming an integrally formed connecting structure.
