Description

Wireless headset set

The present invention relates to a wireless device group for listening to audio messages; in particular, the device transmits and receives signals completely by using a wireless signal, and the wireless device group is not connected by any wire, and the user can use the wireless device when listening to music or voice conversation. The method transmits the voice message of the audio source device of the media player to the playing sound device group, and can also transmit the control setting message to the playing sound device group setting wirelessly by using the program software installed in some audio source device.

In the past decade or so, personal handheld systems (such as smart phones, personal digital assistants, palm-sized electric toys, etc.) have been widely used by the public. Most of these devices include media playback. It can play music, watch videos, and some devices include functions that can communicate with each other (such as smart phones). In addition, digital listening devices (such as iPods, MP3 players, etc.) are becoming smaller and smaller. It is more convenient for users to carry, and the popularity of urbanization and mass transit has greatly increased the commuting population. Therefore, more and more people use these portable electronic devices to listen to music, watch movies, or listen to headphones through the headphones. It is a telephone conversation.

With the miniaturization and generalization of wireless devices, in addition to the devices mentioned in the previous paragraph, there is a considerable proportion of wireless modules directly embedded in the device that can be paired with other devices. And many home audio-visual devices (eg, digital TV...etc) also include wireless modules, so wireless headsets that can be paired with these devices are an easy-to-use option.

Furthermore, the advancement of electronic wafer fabrication and the miniaturization of finished products have enabled many electronic products requiring wafer control to shrink the size of their finished products. Many small products that could not be controlled by wafers have been incorporated into the wafers to control the electronic wafers. And due to the improvement of wafer fabrication technology, the electronic wafer finished product is miniaturized, and the power consumption of the wafer is also reduced.

In addition to the miniaturization and power saving of the electronic chip, the device loaded with the electronic chip can also provide the user with the possibility of setting and adjusting the device through the corresponding software, thereby increasing the convenience of the device. And gains the flexibility of the device.

In addition, in recent years, the battery manufacturing technology and the selective selection of the battery types have increased the storage power of the battery, the battery has been reduced in size, and the stability of the power transmission has also increased. The combination of miniaturized wafers can be used for different device detail control settings, and with a well-used battery, many electronic devices can be reduced in size, portable and increased in use time.

Although there are wireless audio headsets or talk microphones on the market, such products can be used simultaneously on both sides of the user's ears, although the headset and the sound source device can be wirelessly connected. Transmitting the signal, however, a sound source cable must still be connected between the two side headphones. Such a design may cause inconvenience when worn. For example, the user may only allow one of the earphones to be worn in some occasions. Music, however, the other side of the earphones still need to be carried around due to the connection of the audio source line; for another use occasion, if the user listens to music with headphones while exercising, the sound is connected between the two headphones of the user. The source line is very likely to cause a dangerous situation; or if the user uses the headset for the call, the headset may only have a microphone on one side of the call, but even in some situations, the user only needs to The call function in the earphone is used, but since the two-side earphones are connected to each other by the audio source line, it is impossible to wear only the side in which the microphone is included, and the other side is ignored, so that the flexibility of the earphone is reduced.

The present invention considers from the above point of view. If the user uses a wireless earphone set that does not require an audio source cable to connect the two-side earphones, the user can decide to use the two ears or one of the ear ears to listen to the situation according to the situation; Because there is no audio cable between the two earphones, the risk of injury may be greatly reduced; when only the call function is needed, only the side earphone with the microphone can be worn, and the other earphone can be used by itself or not, and the earphone can be added. The elasticity of use. It can be seen that the aforementioned inconvenience, danger, and low-elasticity problems can be solved by using a wireless earphone set without a connected audio source line.

Furthermore, if the user wants to listen to the music for the equalizer of the listening music, it must be set by other software, or through other devices connected to the audio playback device, such as: equalizer, amplifier.. In order to fine-tune the settings, the user cannot directly store the user's favorite listening music equalization settings in the earphone. However, the present invention incorporates an electronic chip in the earphone so that the user can load the corresponding software. Among the compatible devices, the wireless settings are transmitted through the software settings, and the preferences for personal listening to music are fine-tuned and stored in the earphones. Even if the user uses different audio devices, they can still listen while using the same set of headphones. Music preferences, no need to repeatedly fine-tune settings, increase the convenience and flexibility of use.

The wireless earphone set device of the present invention comprises a pair placed in or close to the ear An ear, a left and right playing sound device, and a wireless transmitter that can be wirelessly paired with the playing sound device, wherein each of the left and right playing sound devices includes a control center including a core processor and a wireless module Group and battery system; the wireless headset group can be directly connected to a music device having a wireless function and can be paired to transmit a message, or when the device playing music does not have a wireless transmission function, the music device can be played After the wireless transmitter in the present invention is connected, the wireless transmitter is paired with the playing sound device in the wireless earphone group, so that the listening can also be used in the wireless transmission mode.

The playing sound device in the wireless earphone set of the present invention comprises a core processor for processing signal transmission and reception, and has a function of setting related parameters through a corresponding software, and the user installs the software corresponding to the device of the present invention on the computer or In mobile phones, etc., the playback mode of the playback sound device is adjusted by wireless means, and the power usage status, wireless pairing status, etc. of the wireless headset group can also be viewed through the software.
