Detailed Description
Embodiments of the present application provide an earphone 200 that may be used in a conversation scenario as an accessory to an electronic device, including but not limited to a handheld device, an in-vehicle device, a wearable device, a computing device, or other processing device connected to a wireless modem. The electronic devices may include cellular phones (cellular phones), smart phones (smartphones), personal Digital Assistants (PDAs), tablet computers, laptop computers (laptop computers), car computers, smart watches (smart watches), smart bracelets (smartwatches), pedometers (pedometers), and other electronic devices having a call function. The electronic device in the embodiment of the present application may also be referred to as a terminal. The call scene includes, but is not limited to, an indoor call scene, an outdoor call scene, and a vehicular call scene. The call scenes may include quiet call scenes, noisy call scenes (e.g., scenes in streets, shopping malls, airports, stations, construction sites, in the rain, at tours, concerts, etc.), riding call scenes, outdoor windy call scenes, monaural call scenes, binaural call scenes, and other call-enabled scenes. The earphone 200 (ear-set) may be a pair of conversion units for receiving electrical signals from a media player or receiver and converting the electrical signals into audible sound waves by the speaker 120 near the ear.
The headset 200 may be generally classified into a wired headset 200 (wired headset) and a wireless headset 200 (wireless headset). The wired headset 200 has two headsets 200 and a connecting line, wherein the left and right headsets 200 are connected by the connecting line. The wired headset 200 may be inconvenient to wear and need to be connected to the electronic device through the jack of the headset 200, and the power of the electronic device needs to be consumed during the operation. The wireless headset 200 can communicate with an electronic device by using a wireless communication technology (e.g., bluetooth technology, infrared radio frequency technology, 2.4G wireless technology, ultrasonic wave, etc.), and compared with the wired headset 200, the wireless headset 200 is more convenient and fast to use due to the fact that the wireless headset 200 is free from the constraint of physical wires, so that the wireless headset is rapidly developed. Wherein, the left earphone 200 of the wireless earphone 200 can be connected to the right earphone 200 through bluetooth.
The true wireless bluetooth headset 200, also called True Wireless Stereo (TWS) headset 200, the TWS headset 200 completely eliminates the wire connection, including two headsets 200 (e.g., a master headset 200 and a slave headset 200). For example, when the earphone is used, an electronic device (also referred to as a transmitting device, such as a mobile phone, a tablet, a music player with bluetooth output, etc.) is wirelessly connected to the master earphone 200, and then the master earphone 200 is connected to the slave earphone 200 in a bluetooth wireless manner, so that the real bluetooth left and right channel wireless separation can be realized. The left and right earphones 200 of the TWS earphone 200 can form a stereo system through Bluetooth, and the performances of listening to songs, communicating and wearing are improved. In addition, either of the two earphones 200 can also work alone, for example, in case the master earphone 200 is not connected to the slave earphone 200, the master earphone 200 can return to mono sound quality. Due to the property that the left and right earphones 200 of the TWS earphone 200 have no physical connection, almost all of the TWS earphones 200 are equipped with a charging box having both charging and housing functions.
The TWS headset 200 has a limited internal space due to the limitation of the external shape, and compared to the wired headset 200, the internal of the TWS headset 200 needs to be provided with an acoustic device, a battery, a circuit board, and other devices, for example, in some technologies, the acoustic device includes a speaker and a microphone, the speaker and the microphone are disposed on the same circuit board and located on the same surface of the circuit board, the speaker and the microphone are independently disposed and staggered in the direction perpendicular to the sound emitting direction of the headset, so that the space utilization rate of the microphone and the speaker can be improved, but the planar size of the circuit board is too large, which may result in the installation space required by the circuit board being enlarged, thereby limiting the position of the circuit board in the headset, and further resulting in the distance between the speaker and the eardrum of the user's ear being increased and the high-frequency sound quality of the headset being insufficient.

As shown in fig. 1-3, the application embodiment provides a headset 200, where the headset 200 at least includes: a first housing 210, a second housing 220, and a microphone and speaker combination module 100. The first housing 210 and the second housing 220 are tightly connected and jointly define a containing cavity, and the containing cavity can be used for containing devices such as a battery, a microphone and loudspeaker combined module 100 and the like. The inner wall of the second housing 220 is provided with a sound outlet 230 communicated with the accommodating cavity, and the sound outlet 230 can be used for transmitting the sound emitted by the earphone 200 to the external space of the earphone 200.
In the embodiment of the present application, the microphone and speaker assembly 100 includes the mems speaker 120 and the mems microphone 110 stacked, and the thickness of the mems speaker 120 and the thickness of the mems microphone 110 are small, so that the thickness of the microphone and speaker assembly 100 is small, and in addition, the length of the microphone and speaker assembly 100 in the direction perpendicular to the thickness direction thereof is small because the mems speaker 120 and the mems microphone 110 are stacked along the thickness direction (for example, the X direction in fig. 5) of the microphone and speaker assembly 100, so that the volume of the microphone and speaker assembly 100 is small, and the installation space required by the microphone and speaker assembly 100 is reduced, so that the layout range of the installation position of the microphone and speaker assembly 100 in the earphone 200 can be increased, and the microphone and speaker assembly 100 can be installed at a position where the distance between the microphone and speaker assembly 100 and the ear of the user can be reduced, so as to improve the high-frequency sound quality of the earphone 200. In addition, since the high frequency sound quality of the mems speaker 120 is good, the high frequency sound quality of the earphone 200 can be further improved.
In the embodiment of the present application, since the installation space required for the microphone 110 and the speaker 120 is small, as shown in fig. 1 and fig. 2, the microphone and speaker combination module 100 can be disposed close to the sound outlet 230, in other words, the microphone and speaker combination module 100 is disposed to cover the end of the sound outlet 230 communicating with the accommodating cavity, and thus the distance between the microphone and speaker combination module 100 and the eardrum of the human ear can be reduced, which is helpful for improving the high-frequency sound quality of the earphone 200. Of course, besides the microphone and speaker combination module 100 being located at the sound outlet 230, as shown in fig. 3 and 4, the microphone and speaker combination module 100 can be embedded in the sound outlet 230, so as to further reduce the distance between the microphone and speaker combination module 100 and the ear drum of the user, which is helpful to further improve the high-frequency sound quality of the earphone 200.
In order to further improve the sound generating effect of the earphone 200, as shown in fig. 2, the earphone 200 may further include a speaker unit 240, and the speaker unit 240 is located in the accommodating cavity and located between the microphone and speaker combination module 100 and the first housing 210, it can be understood that since the microphone and speaker combination module 100 has the mems speaker 120, the earphone 200 has two sound generating units, namely the speaker unit 240 and the mems speaker 120, which can meet different sound generating requirements of the earphone 200.
In the embodiment of the present application, the speaker unit 240 may be a moving coil unit or a moving iron unit, and it is understood that the moving coil unit refers to a moving coil speaker and the moving iron unit refers to a moving iron speaker, and of course, the speaker unit 240 may also be other types of speakers 120, and is not limited in particular herein.
In the embodiment of the present application, as shown in fig. 2 to 4, the earphone 200 further includes a bracket 250, the microphone and speaker combination module 100 may be fixedly connected to the second housing 220 through the bracket 250, and in addition, the microphone and speaker combination module 100 may cover one end of the sound outlet 230 or be located in the sound outlet 230 through the bracket 250.
The following explains an implementation of the microphone and speaker combination module 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application.
Fig. 5 is a cross-sectional view of a microphone and speaker combination module 100 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, referring to fig. 5, which at least includes: a microphone 110 and a speaker 120. The speaker 120 is a Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) speaker 120, which is helpful for reducing the thickness of the speaker 120 and improving the high-frequency sound quality of the speaker 120. The speaker 120 has a speaker front chamber 31, a speaker rear chamber 32, and a sound outlet hole 33. The speaker front chamber 31 communicates with the external space of the microphone and speaker combination module 100 through the sound outlet hole 33 so that the sound emitted from the speaker 120 can be transmitted to the external space of the microphone and speaker combination module 100. The microphone 110 is a mems microphone 110, which helps to reduce the thickness of the microphone 110. The microphone 110 has a microphone chamber 10 and a sound pick-up opening 20. The microphone cavity 10 is located below the rear speaker cavity 32 along a first direction (for example, the X direction in fig. 5), and the wall of the microphone cavity 10 facing the rear speaker cavity 32 along the first direction is opposite to at least part of the wall of the rear speaker cavity 32 facing the microphone cavity 10 along the first direction, so that the dimension of the microphone and speaker combination module 100 in a direction perpendicular to the first direction (for example, the Y direction in fig. 5) can be reduced, which helps to reduce the size of the microphone and speaker combination module 100. The microphone chamber 10 communicates with the external space of the microphone and speaker combination module 100 through the sound pickup hole 20 so that the microphone 110 can pick up sound in the external space of the microphone and speaker combination module 100.
It should be noted that the microphone cavity 10 is located below the speaker back cavity 32 with reference to the position of the microphone and speaker combination module 100 in fig. 10, and when the position of the microphone and speaker combination module 100 changes, the microphone cavity 10 is always arranged with the speaker back cavity 32 along the first direction.
Since the microphone 110 and the speaker 120 are both manufactured by using a Micro-Electro-Mechanical System (MEMS) process, the MEMS speaker 120 and the MEMS microphone 110 manufactured by using the MEMS process have the advantages of small size, light weight, low power consumption, high reliability, small thickness, high sensitivity, and easy integration, which is helpful for reducing the thickness of the microphone and speaker combination module 100.
Since the speaker front chamber 31 is located above the speaker back chamber 32 in the first direction, in other words, the speaker front chamber 31 wraps the speaker back chamber 32 toward the chamber wall of the speaker back chamber 32 in the first direction, a portion of the speaker front chamber 31 is located above the speaker back chamber 32 in the first direction, so that the speaker front chamber 31, the speaker back chamber 32, and the microphone chamber 10 are arranged from top to bottom in the first direction, and the microphone 110 and the speaker 120 are stacked in the first direction.
The microphone chamber 10 is disposed opposite to the wall of the speaker chamber 32 facing the wall of the microphone chamber 10 along the first direction, and the speaker chamber 32 is disposed opposite to the wall of the speaker chamber 10 along the first direction, so that the microphone 110 and the speaker 120 are prevented from being arranged in a staggered manner in the second direction (for example, the Y direction in fig. 10), which helps to reduce the length of the microphone and speaker combination module 100 in the second direction. The second direction is perpendicular to the first direction, the first direction refers to a thickness direction of the microphone and speaker combination module 100, and the first direction is also a thickness direction of the speaker 120 and a thickness direction of the microphone 110.
Therefore, in the microphone and speaker combination module 100 according to the embodiment of the present application, by stacking the mems microphone 110 and the mems speaker 120 in the first direction, the advantage of the small thickness of the mems microphone 110 and the advantage of the small thickness of the mems speaker 120 can be effectively utilized, the length of the microphone and speaker combination module 100 in the second direction can be reduced, in other words, the cross-sectional area of the microphone and speaker combination module 100 can be reduced, which is beneficial to reducing the installation space required by the microphone and speaker combination module 100, and further, the distance between the microphone and speaker combination module 100 and the eardrum of the human ear can be reduced, which is beneficial to improving the high-frequency sound quality of the earphone 200. Wherein the cross section of the microphone and speaker combination module 100 is parallel to the second direction and perpendicular to the first direction.
The process of actively reducing noise for the microphone and speaker combination module 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: external noise can enter the microphone cavity 10 through the sound pickup hole 20 and then be picked up by the microphone 110, the microphone 110 converts the picked-up sound signal into an electric signal and transmits the electric signal to the processing unit for processing, the processing unit can perform reverse processing according to the obtained electric signal and convert the obtained electric signal subjected to the reverse processing into a sound signal to be sent to the loudspeaker 120, and the loudspeaker 120 sends out reverse sound wave through the sound outlet hole 33 according to the sound signal to offset the external noise, so that active noise reduction is realized. It should be noted that the processing unit may be a processing chip of the microphone and speaker combination module 100 or a processing module separately disposed in the earphone 200, and is not limited in particular.
In the embodiment of the present application, the microphone cavity 10 includes the microphone front cavity 11 and the microphone rear cavity 12, and the sound pickup hole 20 may communicate with the microphone front cavity 11 or the microphone rear cavity 12, so that noise in the external space of the microphone and speaker combination module 100 may be picked up by the microphone 110 through the microphone rear cavity 12 or the microphone front cavity 11.
As shown in fig. 5, the microphone cavity 10 and the speaker front cavity 31 and the speaker back cavity 32 may be located on different sides of a substrate portion (e.g., the substrate assembly in fig. 10) of the microphone and speaker combination module 100 along the first direction, and the microphone cavity 10 and the speaker front cavity 31 and the speaker back cavity 32 are located on different sides of the substrate portion in the following detailed description.

As shown in fig. 5, the substrate assembly 130, the first housing 121, and the first transducer assembly 122 together define the speaker 120, and due to the arrangement of the first mems transducer, the first transducer assembly 122 can convert an electrical signal into an acoustic signal, so as to implement a sound generating function of the speaker 120. The first housing 121 and the first transducer assembly 122 are both mounted on a first surface of the substrate assembly 130, the first transducer assembly 122 is disposed within the first housing 121 and together with the substrate assembly 130 defines the rear speaker cavity 32, and the first housing 121, the first transducer assembly 122, and the substrate assembly 130 together define the front speaker cavity 31.

With this configuration, the installation space required by the microphone and speaker combination module 100 can be reduced, so that the microphone and speaker combination module 100 is closer to the ear drum of the user, which is helpful for improving the high-frequency sound quality of the earphone 200.
The sound emitting hole 33 may be provided on a side wall (e.g., shown in fig. 5) or a top wall (e.g., shown in fig. 13 or 14) of the first housing 121 so that the speaker 120 can realize a front sound emission or a side sound emission.

In addition, the vibrating element 1221, the first substrate 1222, and the substrate assembly 130 collectively define the speaker back volume 32. The vibration element 1221 is made of a piezoelectric material, and the vibration element 1221 can deform under the action of an electric field to push air to produce sound.

The inner surface of the second housing 111 and the fourth substrate 134 together define the microphone cavity 10, and the sound pickup hole 20 is disposed on the fourth substrate 134, ensuring that the microphone 110 can pick up external noise. The microphone 110 and the speaker 120 share the same substrate, so that the thickness of the microphone and speaker combination module 100 in the first direction can be reduced to reduce the size of the microphone and speaker combination module 100, and the difficulty in producing the microphone and speaker combination module 100 can be reduced to improve the production efficiency of the microphone and speaker combination module 100.
Since the microphone 110 and the speaker 120 share the fourth substrate 134 and can be stacked in the first direction, the thickness of the microphone and speaker combination module 100 in the first direction is reduced, so that the installation space required for the microphone and speaker combination module 100 can be reduced. In addition, since the microphone 110 and the speaker 120 are fabricated by using the same surface of the fourth substrate 134, and the first transducer assembly 122 is located on the outer surface of the second housing 111, the position of the fourth substrate 134 does not need to be moved or turned over during the process of fabricating the microphone and speaker combination module 100, which is helpful for reducing the fabrication steps of the microphone and speaker combination module 100, reducing the difficulty in producing the microphone and speaker combination module 100, and improving the production efficiency of the microphone and speaker combination module 100.
It is understood that the fourth substrate 134 may be a fourth circuit board, and the fourth circuit board may be electrically connected to the first transducer assembly 122 and the second transducer assembly 112 through the wires 140, so as to transmit electrical signals.
It will be appreciated that the second transducer assembly 112 and the fourth substrate 134 together define a rear microphone cavity 12, and the second housing 111, the second transducer assembly 112 and the fourth substrate 134 together define a front microphone cavity 11. In addition, one end of the sound pickup hole 20 communicates with the microphone front cavity 11 or the microphone rear cavity 12, and the other end of the sound pickup hole 20 communicates with the external space of the microphone and speaker combination module 100. When the sound pickup hole 20 is communicated with the microphone rear cavity 12, the sound pickup effect of the microphone 110 is improved.
In order to improve the anti-interference capability of the microphone 110, the second casing 111 may be an electromagnetic shielding casing made of an electromagnetic shielding material, for example, the second casing 111 is made of a metal material.
In order to improve the noise immunity of the microphone 110 and improve the connection effect of the first transducer assembly 122 and the second housing 111, the second housing 111 includes an electromagnetic shielding layer 1111 and a resin layer 1112 which are stacked in the first direction. The resin layer 1112 is adapted to be securely coupled to the second transducer assembly 112 and to define the speaker backing 32 in cooperation with the second transducer assembly 112.

It is understood that the second housing 111 can be partially located within the receiving slot 1341 or the second housing 111 is located above the receiving slot 1341. For example, the second housing 111 has a flat plate structure, and the second housing 111 is disposed to cover the receiving groove 1341.
It should be noted that, since the first transducer assembly 122 may employ a plurality of vibration elements 1221 with cantilever beam structures, the first transducer assembly 122 has a gap structure 1223, and the gap structure 1223 may enable the speaker back cavity 32 and the speaker front cavity 31 to communicate with each other, and may also enable the pressure between the speaker back cavity 32 and the speaker front cavity 31 to be balanced, so as to enable the pressure between the speaker back cavity 32 and the external space of the microphone and speaker combination module 100 to be balanced.
