    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an earphone comprising a sound production component and an ear hook. In a wearing state, the ear hook is configured to place the sound production component at a position near an ear canal but not blocking the ear canal. An inner contour of the ear hook's projection on a user's sagittal plane includes a first curve having an extremum point in a first direction. The first direction is perpendicular to a long-axis direction of a projection of the sound production component on the sagittal plane. The extremum point is located behind a projection point of an upper vertex of the ear hook on the sagittal plane, and the upper vertex is a highest point of an inner contour of the ear hook along the user's vertical axis. An inclination angle of the long-axis direction relative to a horizontal direction is within a range of 13°-21°.

  • Patent number: 12212916
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides a headphone including a sound production component and an ear hook. The ear hook and the sound production component form a first projection on a user's sagittal plane. In a non-wearing state, an inner contour, a first end contour, a second end contour of the first projection, and a tangent segment connecting the first end contour and the second end contour jointly define a first closed curve. A first area of the first closed curve ranges 300 mm2-500 mm2. A portion of the inner contour corresponding to the ear hook includes a first curve. The first curve has an extremum point in a first direction perpendicular to a long axis direction of a projection of the sound production component, the extremum point is located behind a projection point of an upper vertex of the ear hook on the sagittal plane.

  • Patent number: 11910501
    Abstract: A lighting device capable of generating warm or neutral white light using blue light-emitting diodes (“LEDs”), red LEDs, and/or luminescent material that responds to blue LED emission is disclosed. The lighting device includes multiple first solid-state light-emitting structures (“SLSs”), second SLSs, and balancing resistor element. The first SLS such as a string of blue LED dies connected in series is able to convert electrical energy to blue optical light, which is partially turned into longer wavelength emission by the luminescent material. The second SLS such as a red LED die is configured to convert electrical energy to red optical light, wherein the second SLSs are connected in series. While the first SLSs and second SLSs are coupled in parallel, the balancing resistor element provides load balance for current redistribution between the first and second SLSs in response to fluctuation of operating temperature.
