Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a microphone positioning structure, and more particularly to a microphone positioning structure wherein a microphone can be hung on a user's auricle to prevent an earplug part from being easily fallen off or broken and separated at a connection place of a sound tube, due to an excessive stretching from a careless usage.
  • Sound signals produced by an audio playing machine are outputted through an audio output device having a trumpet or loudspeaker.
  • the sound outputted will not be concentrated to achieve a best propagation efficiency, thereby easily dissipating the sound.
  • a user puts his or her ears to close to the audio output device he or she will not be able to clearly listen the audio signals.
  • the power of audio output device is enlarged to allow the user to clearly receive the sound, the scattering of sound output of larger power will allow the surrounding non-users to receive the sound signals at the same time, resulting in some private sound signals of the user to be publicized to cause a trouble.
  • the power of audio output device is too large, a pollution of noise will be created to the non-users, thereby interfering with other people's calmness.
  • the earplug part As the earplug part is inserted into the user's ear, it can be fallen off or even broken and separated from a connection position of the sound tube due to excessively stretching the earplug part from a force of gravity, a natural shaking of user's body, or an abnormal pulling of the sound tube; which will cause a trouble in the usage to the user.
  • the primary object of present invention is to provide a microphone positioning structure which can be hung on a user's auricle to prevent from being fallen off or broken, thereby improving a quality of usage and prolonging a lifetime of usage.
  • the present invention provides a microphone positioning structure which includes a sound tube, an end of which is connected with an audio output device; an earplug part which is located at a tail end of the aforementioned sound tube; and an ear-hook part, an end of which is connected with the aforementioned sound tube.
  • an end of the sound tube is plugged to an audio output device such as a trumpet or a loudspeaker, the ear-hook part is hung on the user's auricle for positioning, and then the earplug part is inserted into the user's ear, such that the sound generated from the audio output device can be propagated to the earplug part through the sound tube to be listened by the user.
  • the ear-hook part is hung and fixed on the user's auricle; therefore, the earplug part is not subjected to a force, and will not be fallen off from a force of gravity or shaking.
  • the present invention is used to connect an audio output device which is provided with a connector 4 for connecting an audio playing machine.
  • An end of the connector 4 is extended with a leading wire 5, and a tail end of which is provided with a speaker 6.
  • a positioning clip 7 is located on the leading wire 5 for clipping on a user, to facilitate carrying and using.
  • the present invention includes a sound tube 1, an earplug part 2, and an ear-hook part 3.
  • the sound tube 1 is made by a soft tube material, an end of which is connected with the speaker 6, a middle section of which is provided with an elastic helical tube 11 to be extended elastically, and an outer rim at a tail end of which is formed with a tenon 12.
  • the earplug part 2 is correspondingly sheathed with the aforementioned tenon 12 at the tail end of sound tube 1, and an interior of the earplug part 2 is provided with a through-hole 21 to connect with the sound tube 1.
  • the ear-hook part 3 is provided with a hanging device 31 which is fitted with a shape of human auricle, and two ends of the hanging device 31 are provided with a sleeve 32 respectively, to be correspondingly sheathed on the sound tube 1.
  • an end of the sound tube 1 is first connected to the speaker 6 of audio output device, and the positioning clip 7 on the sound tube 1 is clipped on a user for fixing.
  • the user adjusts a pitch between the two sleeves 32 at one end of the hanging device 31 on the sound tube 1 to control a tightness of the hanging device 31 for fitting a size and shape of the user's auricle, and then puts the hanging device 31 on his or her auricle, followed by inserting the earplug part 2 into his or her ear-hole for fixing.
  • the sound tube 1 When the user is listening to sound messages, the sound will be outputted from the speaker 6, propagated along the sound tube 1, and finally entered into his or her eat through the through-hole 21 of earplug part 2.
  • a pulling force that the sound tube is subjected to is buffered initially through a deformation and stretching of the elastic helical tube 11, and then is transmitted to the hanging device 31 through the two sleeves 32 at one end of the hanging device 31, to be sustained by the user's auricle, without affecting the earplug part 2 in the user's ear.
  • the earplug part 2 gets loose in the user's ear, from a force of gravity or a shaking of user's head, it can be held due to the hanging device 31, without being fallen off along with the sound tube 1.
  • FIG. 5 it shows a second embodient of the present invention.
  • the sound tube 1 can be without the elastic helical tube 11 and is completely constituted by a straight tube. Therefore, the hanging device 31 will be used to sustain with the force resulting from the natural shaking of user's body and the pulling of sound tube 1, upon using the present invention.
