Abstract

The present disclosure embodiment may disclose a glasses including a glasses frame and two speakers. The glasses frame may include a glasses rim and two glasses temples. The two glasses temples may be rotatably connected to the glasses rim, respectively. The two speakers may include an earphone core. The two speakers may be connected to the two glasses temples via hinge components of the two glasses temples, respectively. The hinge components may be rotatable to change a position of each of the speakers relative to connected one of the glasses temples. The glasses temple may include a circuit component or a battery to drive the earphone core to vibrate to generate a sound. In the present disclosure, the glasses rim and the glasses temple may be connected through a rotating shaft, thereby protecting the connection wire in the glasses and extending the life of the connection wire.

First claim

1 . A glasses, wherein the glasses includes:
a glasses frame, the glasses frame comprising a glasses rim and two glasses temples, and the two glasses temples being rotatably connected to the glasses rim, respectively; and two speakers, the two speakers comprising an earphone core, the two speakers being connected to the two glasses temples via hinge components of the two glasses temples, respectively, and the hinge components being rotatable to change a position of each of the two speakers relative to connected one of the two glasses temples, wherein the glasses temple includes a circuit component or a battery to drive the earphone core to vibrate to generate a sound.

2 . The glasses of claim 1 , wherein the hinge component includes a hinge, a rod-shaped member, and a fixing member, and the hinge includes:
a hinge mount; a hinge arm rotatably connected to the hinge mount via a rotating shaft, and being rotatable relative to the hinge mount when an external force is applied to the hinge arm to change the position of the speaker relative to the glasses temple; a support member flexibly disposed on the hinge mount; and an elastic member configured to elastically offset the support member toward the hinge arm, so that the support member elastically abuts on the hinge arm.

3 . The glasses of claim 2 , wherein
the hinge arm includes a first support surface and a second support surface connected to each other; the support member includes a third support surface; when the elastic member elastically offsets the support member toward the hinge arm, the third support surface elastically abuts on the first support surface and the second support surface, respectively; and when the hinge arm is rotated relative to the hinge mount by the external force, a connection between the first support surface and the second support surface drives the support member against the elastic offset of the elastic member to move in an opposite direction, so that the third support surface is switched from being elastically abutting on one of the first support surface and the second support surface to being elastically abutting on the other of the first support surface and the second support surface.

4 . The glasses of claim 3 , wherein a ratio of a maximum distance from the rotating shaft to the connection to a shortest distance from the rotating shaft to the first support surface is between 1.1 and 1.5 in a section perpendicular to a central axis of the rotating shaft.

5 . The glasses of claim 3 , wherein an included angle between the hinge mount and the hinge arm becomes smaller when the third support surface is switched from elastically abutting on the first support surface to elastically abutting on the second support surface.

6 . The glasses of claim 3 , wherein an external force required when the third support surface is switched from elastically abutting on the first support surface to elastically abutting on the second support surface is different from another external force required when the third support surface is switched from elastically abutting on the second support surface to elastically abutting on the first support surface.

7 . The glasses of claim 3 , wherein the connection has an arc shape in a section perpendicular to a central axis of the rotating shaft.

8 . (canceled)

9 . The glasses of claim 3 , wherein an included angle between the first support surface and the second support surface is an obtuse angle in a section perpendicular to a central axis of the rotating shaft.

10 . The glasses of claim 3 , wherein
the hinge mount includes a mount body, and a first lug and a second lug protruding from the mount body and spaced apart from each other; and the hinge arm includes an arm body and a third lug protruding from the arm body, the third lug being inserted into an interval region between the first lug and the second lug, and rotatably connected to the first lug and the second lug via the rotating shaft.

11 . The glasses of claim 10 , wherein
the support member is at least partially disposed inside the interval region and located at a side of the third lug towards the mount body; and the mount body is disposed with an accommodation chamber communicating with the interval region, the elastic member is disposed inside the accommodation chamber and the support member elastically offsets toward the third lug.

12 . The glasses of claim 1 , wherein the glasses further includes:
a rotating shaft, the rotating shaft being configured to connect the glasses rim and the glasses temple, so that the glasses rim and the glasses temple are able to relatively rotate around the rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft being disposed with a rotating shaft wiring channel along an axial direction; and a connection wire, the connection wire passing through the rotating shaft wiring channel and extending to the glasses rim and the glasses temple, respectively.

13 . The glasses of claim 12 , wherein
the rotating shaft includes a first rotating shaft; two ends of the first rotating shaft are connected to the glasses rim and the glasses temple, respectively; the rotating shaft wiring channel is disposed along an axial direction of the first rotating shaft; the rotating shaft wiring channel communicates with the outside through a wiring port disposed on at least one end surface of the first rotating shaft; and the connection wire extends to the glasses rim or the glasses temple through the wiring port.

14 . The glasses of claim 13 , wherein
the rotating shaft wiring channel communicates with the outside through a first wiring port and a second wiring port, the first wiring port and the second wiring port being disposed on two end surfaces of the first rotating shaft, respectively; and the connection wire extends to the glasses rim and the glasses temple through the first wiring port and the second wiring port, respectively.

15 . The glasses of claim 13 , wherein
the rotating shaft wiring channel communicates with the outside through a first wiring port disposed on an end surface of the first rotating shaft and a second wiring port disposed on a side wall of the first rotating shaft; and the connection wire extends to the glasses rim and the glasses temple through the first wiring port and the second wiring port, respectively.

16 . The glasses of claim 15 , wherein the first rotating shaft is fixedly connected to one of the glasses rim and the glasses temple disposed near the second wiring port, and rotatably connected to another of the glasses rim and the glasses temple disposed near the first wiring port.

17 - 21 . (canceled)

22 . The glasses of claim 1 , wherein the speaker further comprises:
an auxiliary function module configured to receive an auxiliary signal and execute an auxiliary function; a flexible circuit board configured to electrically connect to an audio signal wire and an auxiliary signal wire of the control circuit, and electrically connect the audio signal wire and the auxiliary signal wire with the earphone core and the auxiliary function module via the flexible circuit board, respectively; and a core housing configured to accommodate the earphone core, the auxiliary function module, and the flexible circuit board.
