- the sound source 401A is wrapped by the cavity-like structure 402, most of the sound radiated by it will reach the listening position by direct or reflected means.
- the setting of the cavity structure significantly improves the volume of the sound reaching the listening position.
- the anti-phase sound radiated by the anti-phase sound source 401B outside the cavity-like structure 402 will enter the cavity-like structure 402 through the leakage structure 403 of the cavity-like structure 402.
- This is equivalent to generating a secondary sound source 401B' at the leakage structure 403, whose intensity is significantly smaller than that of the sound source 401B and also significantly smaller than that of the sound source 401A.
- the sound generated by the secondary sound source 401B' has a weak anti-phase cancellation effect on the sound source 401A in the cavity, which significantly increases the listening volume at the listening position.
- the sound source 401A radiates sound to the outside through the leakage structure 402 of the cavity, which is equivalent to generating a secondary sound source 401A' at the leakage structure 402. Since almost all the sound radiated by the sound source 401A is output from the leakage structure 403, and the scale of the cavity-like structure 402 is much smaller than the spatial scale of the evaluated sound leakage (at least one order of magnitude difference), it can be considered that the intensity of the secondary sound source 401A' is equivalent to that of the sound source 401A, and still maintains a considerable sound leakage reduction effect.
- the outer wall surface of the shell of the sound-emitting part 11 is usually a plane or a curved surface, while the contour of the user's concha is an uneven structure.
- a cavity-like structure connected to the outside world is formed between the sound-emitting part 11 and the contour of the concha.
- the sound outlet hole is arranged at a position where the shell of the sound-emitting part faces the opening of the user's ear canal and close to the edge of the concha
- the pressure relief hole is arranged at a position where the sound-emitting part 11 is away from or far away from the opening of the ear canal, so as to construct the acoustic model shown in Figure 4, so that the user can improve the listening position at the ear opening when wearing headphones, and reduce the sound leakage effect in the far field.
- the sound-generating part of the earphone may include a transducer and a shell for accommodating the transducer, wherein the transducer is an element that can receive an electrical signal and convert it into a sound signal for output.
- the type of transducer may include a low-frequency (e.g., 30Hz to 150Hz) transducer, a medium-low frequency (e.g., 150Hz to 500Hz) transducer, a medium-high frequency (e.g., 500Hz to 5kHz) transducer, a high-frequency (e.g., 5kHz to 16kHz) transducer, or a full-frequency (e.g., 30Hz to 16kHz) transducer, or any combination thereof, by frequency.
- a low-frequency e.g., 30Hz to 150Hz
- a medium-low frequency e.g., 150Hz to 500Hz
- a medium-high frequency e.g., 500Hz to 5kHz
- a high-frequency e.g.,
- the low frequency, high frequency, etc. mentioned here only represent the approximate range of frequency, and different division methods may be used in different application scenarios.
- a crossover point may be determined, the low frequency represents the frequency range below the crossover point, and the high frequency represents the frequency above the crossover point.
- the crossover point may be any value within the audible range of the human ear, for example, 500Hz, 600Hz, 700Hz, 800Hz, 1000Hz, etc.
- the transducer may include a diaphragm.
- a front cavity (not shown) for transmitting sound is provided at the front side of the diaphragm in the housing 120.
- the front cavity is acoustically coupled to the sound outlet hole, and the sound at the front side of the diaphragm may be emitted from the sound outlet hole through the front cavity.
- a rear cavity (not shown) for transmitting sound is provided at the rear side of the diaphragm in the housing 120.
- the rear cavity is acoustically coupled to the pressure relief hole, and the sound at the rear side of the diaphragm may be emitted from the pressure relief hole through the rear cavity.
- the ear hook may include a first portion 121 and a second portion 122 connected in sequence, wherein the first portion 121 may be hung between the auricle of the user and the head, and the second portion 122 may extend to the outside of the ear (the side of the ear away from the human head along the coronal axis) and connect to the sound-emitting portion, thereby fixing the sound-emitting portion near the user's ear canal but not blocking the ear canal opening.
- a sound outlet may be provided on the side wall of the housing facing the auricle, thereby directing the sound generated by the transducer out of the housing and then transmitting it to the ear canal opening of the user.
- the ear hook itself is elastic, and the relative position of the sound-emitting part 11 and the ear hook may be different in the wearing state and the non-wearing state.
- the distance from the end FE of the sound-emitting part 11 to the ear hook in the non-wearing state is smaller than the distance from the end FE of the sound-emitting part 11 to the ear hook in the wearing state, so that the sound-emitting part 11 tends to move closer to the ear hook in the wearing state, forming a clamping force to clamp the auricle.
- the earphone 10 can be projected onto a specific plane, and the earphone 10 can be described by parameters related to the projection shape on the plane.
- the earphone 10 in the wearing state, can be projected onto the sagittal plane of the human body to form a corresponding projection shape.
- a first plane similar to this can be selected with reference to the relative position relationship between the sagittal plane of the human body and the earphone 10, so that the projection shape formed by the projection of the earphone 10 on the first plane is close to the projection shape formed by the projection of the earphone 10 on the sagittal plane of the human body.
- the first plane when the user is not wearing the earphone 10, the first plane can be determined according to the shape of the ear hook.
- the first plane can be determined in the following manner: the ear hook is placed on a flat support surface (such as a horizontal desktop, a ground plane, etc.), and when the ear hook is in contact with the support surface and placed stably, the support plane is the first plane corresponding to the earphone 10 at this time.
- the first plane can also be the sagittal plane of the human body.
- the non-wearing state here can be represented by removing the auricle structure in the user's head model, and using a fixing piece or glue to fix the sound-emitting part 11 to the human head model in the same posture as in the wearing state.
- the first plane can also refer to the plane formed by the bisector that bisects the ear hook along its length extension direction or approximately bisects it.
- FIG5 is a schematic diagram of the structure of an earphone in a non-wearing state according to some embodiments of the present specification
- FIG6 is a first projection formed by projecting the earphone in a non-wearing state on a first plane according to some embodiments of the present specification.

- the end FE please refer to the relevant description of Figure 3 of this specification.
- the second end contour may be a projection contour of the free end BE of the suspension structure 12 on the first plane, and the two endpoints Q0 and Q1 of the second end contour are projection points of the junction between the free end BE and other parts of the suspension structure 12 on the first plane.

- the end of the first part of the suspension structure 12 away from the second part may be a structure with a regular or irregular shape.
- an exemplary description is given to further illustrate the free end BE of the suspension structure 12. For example, when the end of the first part of the suspension structure 12 away from the second part is a rectangular parallelepiped structure, its end wall surface is a plane. At this time, the free end BE of the suspension structure 12 is the end side wall of the end of the first part of the suspension structure 12 away from the second part.
- the free end BE of the suspension structure 12 may be an area obtained after extending a specific distance from the farthest position away from the second part to the second part in the extension direction of the first part of the suspension structure 12.
- the ratio of the specific distance to the total extension distance of the first part of the suspension structure 12 may be in the range of 0.05 to 0.2.
- the first end contour can be a straight line segment or a circular arc, and point P0 and point P1 respectively represent the two ends of the first end contour.
- point P0 can be the intersection point of the arc formed by the projection of the end FE and the line segment of the projection of the upper side wall
- point P1 can be the intersection point of the arc formed by the projection of the end FE and the line segment of the projection of the lower side wall.
- the end of the ear hook away from the sound-emitting part 11 also has a free end, and the projection of the free end of the ear hook on the first plane forms a second end contour, the second end contour can be a straight line segment or a circular arc, and point Q0 and point Q1 respectively represent the two ends of the second end contour.
- point Q0 and point Q1 can be the two end points of a line segment or an arc projected from the free end of the first part 121 of the ear hook in the direction away from the second part 122 of the ear hook on the first plane. Furthermore, in the long axis direction Y of the sound-emitting part 11, the end point close to the sound-emitting part 11 is point Q0, and the end point away from the sound-emitting part 11 is Q1.
- the projection shape of the earphone 10 in the first plane and the sagittal plane of the human body can reflect the wearing method of the earphone 10 on the ear.
- the area of the first projection can reflect the area of the auricle that the earphone 10 can cover when worn, as well as the contact method between the sound-emitting part 11 and the ear hook and the ear.
- the inner contour, outer contour, first end contour, and second end contour in the first projection form a non-closed area.
- the size of this area is closely related to the wearing effect of the earphone 10 (for example, wearing stability, sound-emitting position, etc.).
- the tangent segment 50 connecting the first end contour and the second end contour can be determined, and the area enclosed by the first closed curve defined by the tangent segment 50, the outer contour, the first end contour, and the second end contour is taken as the area of the first projection (also referred to as the "first area").
- the sound-emitting efficiency can be understood as the ratio of the listening volume at the ear canal opening to the sound leakage volume in the far field.
- the position of the sound-emitting part 11B relative to the ear, the size of the sound-emitting part 11 can be set smaller to adapt to the size of the concha cavity.
- the distance between the sound-emitting part 11 and the first part 121 of the ear hook should not be too far, so that by providing a suitable clamping force, it can be ensured that the earphone 10 is not completely supported only by the upper edge of the ear in the wearing state, thereby improving the wearing comfort.
- the first area enclosed by the first closed curve can be set smaller in the non-wearing state. In some embodiments, the range of the first area enclosed by the first closed curve is not greater than 1500 mm 2 .
- the ear hook is at least partially arranged to abut against the ear and/or the head in the wearing state, so as to form a force to press the ear, if the first area is too small, some people (such as people with larger auricles) may feel a foreign body sensation after wearing it.
- the first area of the first closed curve is not less than 1000 mm2 ; at the same time, in some embodiments, considering that the relative position of the sound-emitting part 11 and the user's ear canal (such as the concha cavity) will affect the number of leakage structures of the cavity-like structure formed by the sound-emitting part 11 and the user's concha cavity and the opening size of the leakage structure, and the opening size of the leakage structure will directly affect the listening quality, which is specifically manifested in that if the first area is too small, the sound-emitting part 11 may not abut against the edge of the concha cavity, resulting in an increase in the sound components directly radiated outward by the sound-emitting part 11, and a decrease in the sound reaching the listening position, thereby reducing the sound efficiency of the sound-emitting part 11.
- the first area of the first closed curve may be between 1000 mm2 and 1500 mm2.
- the range of the first area of the first closed curve is not less than 1150 mm 2 .
- the range of the first area of the first closed curve is not greater than 1350 mm 2 . Therefore, in some embodiments, the range of the first area of the first closed curve can be between 1150 mm 2 and 1350 mm 2 to ensure the sound efficiency of the sound-emitting part 11 and the comfort of the user wearing the earphone 10.
- the appropriate first area can ensure the listening volume of the earphone 10 at the listening position (for example, at the ear canal opening), especially the listening volume of the mid-low frequency, while maintaining a good far-field sound leakage cancellation effect.
- the relative size between the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 on the first plane and the first area can be set.
- the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 on the first plane and the first area can be made smaller when the earphone 10 is not worn, so as to ensure that the user does not block the user's ear canal when wearing the earphone 10, and also reduce the user's load when wearing it, so as to facilitate the user to obtain ambient sound or daily communication during daily wear.
- the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 on the first plane can be made not more than half of the first area (that is, the ratio is not greater than 0.5).
- the ratio of the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 on the first plane to the first area can be between 0.22 and 0.43. Further, the ratio of the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 on the first plane to the first area can be between 0.25 and 0.4, thereby reducing the user's wearing feeling.
- the overall size of the sound-emitting part 11 should not be too large or too small. For example, if the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 is too small, the sound-emitting part 11 cannot fully cover the concha cavity, and the gap between the sound-emitting part 11 and the concha cavity is large, resulting in a low listening volume at the user's ear canal opening.
- the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 may cover the user's ear canal opening, making it impossible for the ear canal opening to remain open, affecting the user's acquisition of sounds in the external environment.
- the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 may be between 202 mm 2 and 560 mm 2 .
- the first area may be in the range of 1000 mm 2 to 1500 mm 2. Further, in order to enable the sound-emitting portion 11 to produce a better listening effect, the first area may be in the range of 1150 mm 2 to 1350 mm 2 , the projection area of the sound-emitting portion 11 may be in the range of 330 mm 2 to 440 mm 2 , and the ratio of the projection area of the sound-emitting portion 11 on the first plane to the first area may be in the range of 0.25 to 0.4.
- the inner contour, the first end contour, the second end contour, and the tangent segment 50 connecting the first end contour and the second end contour jointly define a third closed curve.
- the area enclosed by the third closed curve can be used as the area of the third projection (also referred to as the "third area").
- the third closed curve can reflect the degree of fit between the sound-emitting portion 11 and the ear hook and the ear when the earphone 10 is worn.
- the relative position of the sound-emitting part 11 and the user's ear canal (e.g., the concha cavity) will affect the number of leakage structures of the cavity-like structure formed by the sound-emitting part 11 and the user's concha cavity and the size of the opening of the leakage structure, and the size of the opening of the leakage structure will directly affect the listening quality, specifically, when the third area is too large, the sound-emitting part 11 may not be able to abut the edge of the concha cavity, resulting in an increase in the sound components directly radiated outward by the sound-emitting part 11, and a decrease in the sound reaching the listening position, thereby reducing the sound efficiency of the sound-emitting part 11.
- the third area should not be too large, so the ratio of the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 on the first plane to the range of the third area of the third closed curve is not less than 0.6.
- a too small third area will cause the clamping force of the ear hook and the sound-emitting part 11 on the user's auricle to be too large, so in some embodiments, the ratio of the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 on the first plane to the range of the third area of the third closed curve is not greater than 1.12.
- the ratio of the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 on the first plane to the range of the third area of the third closed curve is between 0.6 and 1.12. Furthermore, an excessively large third area may reduce the clamping effect between the ear hook and the sound-emitting part 11. At this time, the weight of the earphone 10 is supported by the upper edge of the user's ear, resulting in an increased foreign body sensation. In order to ensure the comfort of the user's wearing and avoid the excessively small third area affecting the sound-emitting part 11 from extending into the concha cavity, the ratio of the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 on the first plane to the range of the third area is between 0.67 and 1.06.
- the third area may be in the range of 200 mm 2 to 600 mm 2. Furthermore, to ensure the listening volume of the earphone 10 at the listening position (e.g., at the opening of the ear canal) and to improve the wearing comfort of the user, the third area is in the range of 300 mm 2 to 500 mm 2 .
- the difference between the first area and the third area is equal to the projection area of the earphone 10 on the first plane (i.e., the sum of the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 on the first plane and the projection area of the ear hook on the first plane).
- the size of the transducer or increase the input power (or input voltage) of the battery to the transducer, and increasing the size of the transducer will lead to an increase in the size of the sound-emitting part 11, and under the premise of not affecting the battery life of the earphone 10, increasing the input power of the battery to the transducer will lead to an increase in the area of the battery compartment.
- the sound-emitting part 11 since the sound-emitting part 11 is at least partially inserted into the concha cavity in the wearing mode, the sound-emitting efficiency of the sound-emitting part 11 can be improved, so the sound-emitting part 11 can be in a smaller volume (i.e., the earphone 10 has a smaller volume), ensuring that the sound-emitting part 11 can provide a higher listening volume at the listening position.
- the ratio of the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 on the first plane to the projection area of the earphone 10 on the first plane is not greater than 0.65.
- the size of the sound-emitting part 11 should not be too small.
- the ratio of the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 on the first plane to the projection area of the earphone 10 on the first plane is not less than 0.28.
- the ratio of the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 on the first plane to the projection area of the earphone 10 on the first plane is between 0.28 and 0.65.
- the ratio of the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 on the first plane to the projection area of the earphone 10 on the first plane is between 0.35 and 0.59.
- the difference between the first area and the third area is equal to the projection area of the earphone 10 on the first plane.
- the ratio of the projection area of the sound-emitting portion 11 on the first plane to the projection area of the earphone 10 on the first plane is between 0.28 and 0.65, and the projection area of the earphone 10 on the first plane ranges from 500 mm 2 to 1180 mm 2.
- the ratio of the projection area of the sound-emitting portion 11 on the first plane to the projection area of the earphone 10 on the first plane is between 0.35 and 0.59, and the projection area of the earphone 10 on the first plane ranges from 650 mm 2 to 970 mm 2 .
- FIG8 is a schematic diagram of the morphological difference between the earphone 10 in the wearing state and the non-wearing state according to some embodiments of the present specification.
- the dotted area represents the first part of the ear hook in the wearing state, which is farther from the end FE of the sound-emitting part 11 than the first part of the ear hook in the non-wearing state.
- the ear hook and the sound-emitting part 11 form a second projection on the sagittal plane of the human body, similar to the first projection shown in FIG5 , and the second projection also includes an outer contour, a first end contour, an inner contour, and a second end contour, and the outer contour, the first end contour, the second end contour, and the tangent segment connecting the first end contour and the second end contour jointly define a second closed curve.
- the projection shape formed by the projection of the earphone 10 on the first plane is close to the projection shape formed by the projection of the earphone 10 on the sagittal plane of the human body.
- the contour boundary points as shown in FIG5 i.e., point P0, point P1, point Q0, and point Q1
- the definitions of the outer contour, the first end contour, the inner contour, the second end contour, and the tangent segment in the second projection are similar to those of the first contour, and are not repeated here.
- the area enclosed by the second closed curve is regarded as the area of the second projection (also referred to as the “second area”).
- the second area can reflect the fit between the earphone 10 and the ear of the user when the earphone 10 is worn.
- the second area of the second closed curve can be obtained by simulating the shape of the earphone 10 in the wearing state.
- the relative positions of the various parts of the earphone 10 can be fixed in the wearing state to ensure that the relative positions of the various parts of the earphone do not change after the earphone parts are removed from the ear (or the ear model is removed), thereby obtaining the shape of the earphone in the wearing state.
- the second area can be determined based on the projection of the earphone in this shape on the first plane.
- the second area enclosed by the second closed curve is larger than the first area enclosed by the first closed curve.
- the difference between the second area and the first area should be within a certain range.
- the second area may be 20 mm 2 to 500 mm 2 larger than the first area.
- the second area may be 50 mm 2 to 400 mm 2 larger than the first area.
- the second area may be 60 mm 2 to 100 mm 2 larger than the first area.
- the ratio of the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 on the first plane to the second area of the second closed curve is slightly smaller than the ratio of the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 on the first plane to the first area of the first closed curve.
- the ratio of the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 on the first plane to the second area is in the range of 0.18 to 0.42.
- the ratio of the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 on the first plane to the second area of the second closed curve is between 0.2 and 0.35.
- an appropriate second area can ensure the listening volume of the earphone 10 at the listening position (e.g., at the ear canal opening), especially the listening volume of the mid-low frequency, while maintaining a good far-field sound leakage cancellation effect.
- the second area ranges from 1100 mm 2 to 1700 mm 2. Further, considering the ratio range of the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 to the second area, the second area can range from 1300 mm 2 to 1650 mm 2 , so as to take into account both the listening quality and the sound leakage reduction effect.
- the inner contour, the first end contour, the second end contour, and the tangent segment 50 connecting the first end contour and the second end contour jointly define a fourth closed curve. Similar to the third area, in some embodiments, the area enclosed by the fourth closed curve can be used as the area of the fourth projection (also referred to as the "fourth area"). The difference between the fourth closed curve and the third closed curve can reflect the degree of fit between the sound-emitting portion 11 and the ear hook and the ear when the earphone 10 is worn.
- the distance between the ear hook and the sound-emitting part 11 increases in the wearing state, so the fourth area formed by the earphone 10 in the wearing state is greater than the third area formed in the non-wearing state.
- the sound-emitting part 11 when the fourth area is too large, the sound-emitting part 11 may not be able to abut the edge of the concha cavity, resulting in an increase in the sound components directly radiated outward by the sound-emitting part 11, and a decrease in the sound reaching the listening position, which in turn leads to a decrease in the sound-emitting efficiency of the sound-emitting part 11; and a too small fourth area will cause the clamping force of the ear hook and the sound-emitting part 11 on the user's auricle to be too large. Therefore, in some embodiments, the ratio of the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 on the first plane to the fourth area of the fourth closed curve is between 0.46 and 0.77.
- the ratio of the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 to the fourth area is between 0.51 and 0.72.
- the fourth area of the fourth closed curve is in the range of 350 mm 2 to 900 mm 2. Furthermore, an excessively large fourth area may reduce the clamping effect between the ear hook and the sound-emitting portion 11. At this time, the weight of the earphone 10 is supported by the upper edge of the user's ear, resulting in an increased wearing feeling.
- the fourth area is in the range of 450 mm 2 to 750 mm 2 .
- the wearing effect of the earphone 10 can be effectively improved. Since the ear shapes and sizes of different users may be different, this specification will take the average range of the projection area of the auricle on the sagittal plane of the human body as a reference, and the average range is in the range of 1300mm 2 to 1700mm 2.
- the ratio of the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 on the first plane to the projection area of the auricle on the sagittal plane of the human body is between 0.15 and 0.35.
- the ratio of the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 on the first plane to the projection area of the auricle on the sagittal plane of the human body is within the aforementioned range, which can ensure good sound efficiency and listening effect of the sound-emitting part 11. It should be noted that, for some users, due to individual differences among users, the projection area of the auricle on the sagittal plane of the human body may be less than 1300 mm 2 or greater than 1700 mm 2 .
- the ratio of the first area to the projection area of the auricle on the sagittal plane of the human body may be greater than 0.33 or less than 0.15.
- the ratio of the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 on the first plane to the projection area of the auricle on the sagittal plane of the human body is between 0.1 and 0.38.
- the sound-emitting part 11 when the user wears the earphone 10, at least part of the sound-emitting part 11 thereof can extend into the user's concha cavity, forming the acoustic model shown in FIG. 4 . Since the sound-emitting part 11 cannot be closely fitted with the concha cavity, a gap is formed, which corresponds to the leakage structure 403 shown in FIG. 4 . That is, when the earphone 10 is in the wearing state, when part or the entire structure of the sound-emitting part 11 extends into the concha cavity, the projection of the sound-emitting part 11 on the sagittal plane of the human body and the projection of the concha cavity on the sagittal plane of the human body have an overlapping area.
- the ratio of the overlapping area will affect the size of the opening area of the leakage structure 403 of the cavity-like structure 402 in the acoustic model shown in FIG. 4 .
- the overlapping ratio between the sound-emitting part 11 and the concha cavity is relatively large, the sound-emitting part 11 can cover a larger part of the concha cavity.
- the size of the gap between the sound-emitting part 11 and the concha cavity is small, that is, the opening area of the leakage structure 403 of the cavity-like structure 402 is small.
- FIG9 is a schematic diagram of a cavity-like structure according to some embodiments of the present specification
- FIG10 is a graph of a listening index of a cavity-like structure with leakage structures of different sizes according to some embodiments of the present specification.
- the opening area of the leakage structure on the cavity-like structure is S
- the area of the cavity-like structure directly affected by the contained sound source (“+” shown in FIG9 ) is S 0 .
- “Direct action” here means that the sound emitted by the contained sound source directly acts on the wall of the cavity-like structure without passing through the leakage structure.
- the distance between the two sound sources is d 0
- the distance from the center of the opening shape of the leakage structure to the other sound source (“-” shown in FIG9 ) is L.
- the listening index may refer to the sound pressure level intensity measured at the listening position. This is because the larger the relative opening, the more sound components directly radiated outward by the contained sound source, and the less sound reaching the listening position, causing the listening volume to decrease as the relative opening increases, thereby causing the listening index to decrease. It can be inferred that the larger the opening, the smaller the listening volume at the listening position.
- the overlap ratio of the projection area of the sound-emitting part 11 and the projection area of the concha cavity on the sagittal plane of the human body can be controlled within a specific range to control the size of the opening.

- the ratio of the second area to the projection area of the auricle on the sagittal plane of the human body is in the range of 0.8 to 1.1, so as to reduce the sound leakage to the outside of the cavity-like structure formed by the sound-emitting part 11 and the user's ear, so that more sound enters the ear canal to ensure the listening effect.
- the frequency response curves corresponding to different overlapping ratios and the frequency response curves corresponding to the centroid of the first projection and the centroid of the projection of the ear canal opening on the sagittal plane of the human body measured in the embodiments of this specification are measured by changing the wearing position of the sound-emitting part 11 (for example, translating along the sagittal axis) when the wearing angle of the sound-emitting part 11 (the angle between the upper side wall or the lower side wall and the horizontal direction), and the dimensions in the long axis direction, the short axis direction and the thickness direction are constant.
- the positional relationship between the sound-producing part 11 and the auricle, the concha cavity or the ear canal opening involved in the embodiments of the present specification can be determined by the following exemplary method: first, at a specific position, a photograph of a human head model with an ear is taken in the direction opposite to the sagittal plane, and the edge of the concha cavity, the outline of the ear canal opening and the auricle outline (for example, the inner outline and the outer outline) are marked.
- These marked outlines can be regarded as the projection outlines of various structures of the ear on the sagittal plane of the human body; then, at the specific position, a photograph of the earphone 10 is taken on the human head model at the same angle, and the outline of the sound-producing part 11 is marked.
- the outline can be regarded as the projection of the sound-producing part 11 on the sagittal plane of the human body.
- the positional relationship between the sound-producing part 11 for example, the centroid, the end, etc.
- the edge of the concha cavity, the ear canal opening, the inner outline or the outer outline can be determined by comparative analysis.
- the aforementioned Figures 1 to 14B and the corresponding contents of the specification are about the situation where the sound-emitting part is wholly or partially extended into the concha cavity when the earphone is worn.
- the sound-emitting part may not be extended into the concha cavity.
- at least part of the sound-emitting part 1201 shown in Figure 15 covers the antihelix area.
- the sound-emitting part 1201 may be suspended relative to the concha cavity.
- the earphone 1200 shown in Figure 15 is taken as an example to explain the earphone 1200 in detail.
- the structure of the earphone 1200 of Figure 15 and its corresponding parameters can also be applied to the earphone mentioned above in which the sound-emitting part is extended into the concha cavity.
- the output effect of the earphone 1200 can be improved, that is, the sound intensity at the near-field listening position is increased, while the volume of far-field sound leakage is reduced.
- one or more sound outlet holes can be set on the side of the shell of the sound-emitting part 1201 close to or facing the user's ear canal, and one or more pressure relief holes are set on the other side walls of the shell of the sound-emitting part 1201 (for example, the side walls away from or away from the user's ear canal).
- the sound outlet hole is acoustically coupled with the front cavity of the earphone 1200
- the pressure relief hole is acoustically coupled with the back cavity of the earphone 1200.
- the sound output by the sound outlet hole and the sound output by the pressure relief hole can be approximately regarded as two sound sources, and the sound of the two sound sources is equal in magnitude and opposite in phase.
- the sound emitted by the sound outlet can be directly transmitted to the user's ear canal without hindrance, while the sound emitted by the pressure relief hole needs to bypass the shell of the sound-emitting part 1201 or pass through the sound-emitting part 1201 to form an acoustic model similar to that shown in FIG16.
- the sound field of the point sound source A2 needs to bypass the baffle to interfere with the sound wave of the point sound source A1 at the listening position, which is equivalent to increasing the sound path from the point sound source A2 to the listening position.
- the amplitude difference between the sound waves of the point sound source A1 and the point sound source A2 at the listening position increases compared to the case where no baffle is provided, thereby reducing the degree of cancellation of the two-way sound at the listening position, thereby increasing the volume at the listening position.
- the sound waves generated by the point sound source A1 and the point sound source A2 can interfere in a larger spatial range without bypassing the baffle (similar to the case without a baffle), the sound leakage in the far field will not increase significantly compared to the case without a baffle. Therefore, by setting a baffle structure around one of the sound sources of the point sound source A1 and the point sound source A2, the volume at the near-field listening position can be significantly increased without significantly increasing the volume of the far-field sound leakage.
