Embodiments of this present disclosure describe a wearable device. In some embodiments, the wearable device may include a deflector structure configured to be worn on the head of a user. For example, when the wearable device is eyewear, the deflector structure may be an eyewear leg or a partial structure thereof. In some embodiments, the deflector structure may include a first connecting section, a second connecting section, and a concave section. The first connecting section, the concave section, and the second connecting section may be connected in sequence.

On the other hand, the small size of the wearable device provided by the embodiments of this present disclosure only requires a portion of the structure of the wearable device (e.g., the mirror legs) to be adjusted to a similar structure of the deflector structure. In addition, the wearable device provided by the embodiment of this present disclosure reduces wind noise by physical means, which is less damaging to the voice signal (e.g., the voice signal when the user is speaking) and leaves more room for subsequent algorithmic processing.

It should be understood that the framework diagram provided in <FIG> is for illustrative purposes only and is not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure. For those skilled in the art, various variations and modifications can be made under the guidance of this present disclosure. And these deformations and modifications will fall within the scope of the present disclosure. In some embodiments, the count of elements shown in the figures can be adjusted according to the actual situation. In some embodiments, one or more of the elements shown in <FIG> may be omitted, or one or more other elements may be added or removed. For example, the wearable device <NUM> may also include an acoustic output unit. In some embodiments, a component may be replaced by other components capable of performing similar functions.

To further describe the wearable device, the following description describes an exemplary wearable device. <FIG> is a schematic diagram illustrating a structure of a wearable device according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. The wearable device <NUM> shown in <FIG> is a VR device or an AR device, and as shown in <FIG>, the wearable device <NUM> may include a deflector structure <NUM>, a visual member <NUM>, and a first microphone <NUM>. In some embodiments, the deflector structure <NUM> may be a headband-type component, and the deflector structure <NUM> may be a structure made of resilient material or a structure with an adjustable length. The two ends of the deflector structure <NUM> may be connected to the two ends of the visual member <NUM>, and when the user wears the wearable device <NUM>, the deflector structure <NUM> and the visual member <NUM> may surround the head of the user, and the wearable device <NUM> may be worn through the pressure of the deflector structure <NUM> and the visual member <NUM> on the head of the user. In some embodiments, the connection between the deflector structure <NUM> and the visible member <NUM> may include, but is not limited to, a movable connection, such as a rotating connection or a telescoping connection, or a relatively fixed connection such as a snap, screwed or one-piece molded connection.

In some embodiments, the deflector structure <NUM> may include a first connecting section <NUM>, a concave section <NUM>, and a second connecting section <NUM> connected in sequence, wherein one end of the first connecting section <NUM> may be connected to the visible member <NUM>, another end of the first connecting section <NUM> may be connected to the concave section <NUM>, and the second connecting section <NUM> may be connected to the end of the concave section <NUM> that is away from the visible member <NUM>. It should be noted that when the deflector structure <NUM> is a headband-type component, the second connecting section <NUM> may be a structure similar to a headband to wrap around the head of the user. Alternatively, the second connecting section <NUM> may be a structure independent from the headband, for example, the headband may be detachably connected to (e.g., clamped on, bonded to, etc.) the second connecting section <NUM>. When the user wears the wearable device <NUM>, the concave section <NUM> may be located near the user's ear (e.g., front side, upper side, etc.), which allows the first microphone <NUM> to be located close to the user's mouth for easy reception of the sound signal when the user speaks. On the other hand, when the wearable device <NUM> includes an acoustic output unit, the acoustic output unit can be located close to the user's ear without blocking the user's ear canal opening, so that the user can hear the sound from the acoustic output unit while also receiving the sound from the external environment. As shown in <FIG>, the region of the concave section <NUM> that is depressed downward relative to the deflector structure <NUM> has a relatively low airflow rate relative to other locations (e.g., the first connecting section <NUM>, the second connecting section <NUM>, or the external environment). In order to reduce the effect of external airflow on the first microphone <NUM>, in some embodiments, the first microphone <NUM> may be located inside the concave section <NUM>, with the sound inlet hole opened in the side wall corresponding to the depression region, and the first microphone <NUM> picks up the external sound signal through the sound inlet hole. For example, the concave section <NUM> has a cavity inside that is connected to the external environment through a sound inlet hole, and the first microphone <NUM> or its components (e.g., a diaphragm, a transducer, etc.) may be located in this cavity, at which point the lower concave section <NUM> may be considered a housing structure for the first microphone. The airflow rate may be lower when the distance from downward depression region of the concave section <NUM> to the top of the deflector structure <NUM> is increased. To improve the quality of the sound signal collected by the first microphone <NUM> when the user is speaking, in some embodiments, the sound inlet hole may be located at the bottom side of the downward depression region in the concave section <NUM>. In some embodiments, the first microphone <NUM> may also be located in an external region of the concave section <NUM>. For example, the first microphone <NUM> may be a relatively independent structure relative to the concave section <NUM>, with the housing structure of the first microphone <NUM> connected to the side wall of the concave section <NUM>. In some embodiments, a sound inlet hole may be opened in the housing structure of the first microphone <NUM> to allow the internal elements of the first microphone <NUM> to pick up external sound signals, and descriptions about the location of the sound inlet hole opened in the housing structure of the first microphone <NUM> may refer to the contents about the sound inlet hole in the side wall of the concave section <NUM> described above.

It should be noted that the first microphone <NUM> can be a single microphone or a microphone array consisting of multiple microphones. In addition, the wearable device <NUM> may include microphones other than the first microphone <NUM>, such as a second microphone, a third microphone, etc. The other microphones may be located at other parts of the inflow structure <NUM>, for example, the other microphones may be located at the second connection segment <NUM> of the deflector structure, and the multiple microphones (e.g., dual microphones, triple microphones, etc.) on the wearable device <NUM> may further improve the call noise reduction effect.

<FIG> is a schematic diagram illustrating a structure of another wearable device according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. The wearable device <NUM> shown in <FIG> may be an eyewear, and as shown in <FIG>, the wearable device <NUM> may include two deflector structures <NUM>, a visual member <NUM> (i.e., frames or lenses), and a first microphone <NUM>. In some embodiments, the deflector structure <NUM> may be considered as a mirror leg structure, with one end of the deflector structure <NUM> (i.e., a first connector <NUM>) connected to the end of the visible member <NUM>, and two second connector segments <NUM> of the deflector structure <NUM> matching with the user's left and right ears, respectively. When the user wears the wearable device <NUM>, the deflector structure <NUM> may be supported by the user's ears and the visual member <NUM> may be supported by the user's nose. In some embodiments, a connection manner of the deflector structure <NUM> to the visible member <NUM> may include, but is not limited to, a movable connection such as a rotating connection or a telescoping connection, or a relatively fixed connection such as a snap, screwed or one-piece molded connection. The structure of the first connecting section <NUM>, the concave section <NUM>, and the first microphone <NUM> shown in <FIG> may be similar to the structure of the first connecting section <NUM>, the concave section <NUM>, and the first microphone <NUM> shown in <FIG>, and may not be described herein.

It should be noted that the above description of the wearable device <NUM> and the wearable device <NUM> is for example and illustration purposes only and does not limit the scope of application of this present disclosure. For those skilled in the art, various corrections and changes can be made to the wearable device <NUM> and the wearable device <NUM> under the guidance of this present disclosure. However, these corrections and modifications are still within the scope of the present disclosure. For example, the deflector structure <NUM> of the wearable device <NUM> may be a mirror leg structure, and the deflector structure <NUM> of the wearable device <NUM> may be a headband-type component.

To further illustrate that the deflector structure can provide a stable low-flow rate region, <FIG> and <FIG> are provided. <FIG> is a schematic diagram illustrating flow fields of different airflow directions according to some embodiments of the present disclosure By way of illustration only, as shown in <FIG>, in some embodiments, a height of a deflector structure <NUM> may gradually increase, and then gradually decrease along the length of the deflector structure <NUM> (in a direction of the arrow x in the image a in <FIG>), and the slope of a plane having a gradually increasing height ( plane A shown in the image a in <FIG>, hereinafter referred to as plane A) in the deflector structure <NUM> may be less than the slope of a plane having a gradually decreasing height (plane B shown in the image a in <FIG>, hereinafter referred to as plane B). The height of the deflector structure <NUM> may refer to a height of the deflector structure <NUM> in the z-direction relative to a reference plane <NUM>. The slope may refer to a ratio of the height of the plane of the deflector structure <NUM> relative to the reference plane <NUM> to the distance in the horizontal direction.

As shown in the image a in <FIG>, the deflector structure <NUM> may be set along a flow direction L1 of the airflow, where the flow rate of the airflow is <NUM>/s, and the length direction of the deflector structure <NUM> may be the same as the flow direction L1 of the airflow, which can also be understood as an angle between the flow direction L1 of the airflow and the reference plane <NUM> is <NUM>°. The deflector structure <NUM> may change the flow direction of the airflow, when the airflow first flows along the external surface of the gradually increasing height part of a raised structure <NUM>, the height of the deflector structure <NUM> with the gradually increasing part can ensure a relatively smooth flow of airflow and prevent the airflow from generating eddy currents and introducing additional noise. Since the slope of the plane B in the deflector structure <NUM> is greater than the slope of the plane A, when the airflow passes the highest point of the deflector structure <NUM>, the height of the deflector structure <NUM> changes abruptly, so that the airflow does not flow along the plane B of the deflector structure <NUM>, but flows along the length of the deflector structure <NUM>, which in turn forms a low flow rate region <NUM> in the deflector structure <NUM>. As seen in the image a in <FIG>, under the condition of <NUM>/s incoming flow rate, the <NUM> height of the deflector structure <NUM> along the length of the deflector structure <NUM> can ensure that the flow rate in the region of about <NUM> after it is less than <NUM>/s.

As shown in the image b in <FIG>, when an angle between the flow direction L2 of the airflow and the reference plane <NUM> is <NUM>°, a low flow rate region <NUM> may be formed along the length of the deflector structure <NUM> in a region of about <NUM> after the deflector structure <NUM>. A length range of the low-flow rate region <NUM> may be significantly reduced relative to the length range of the low-flow rate region <NUM> in the image a in <FIG>, and there may also be a relatively high-speed reflux region in it. As shown in <FIG>, when an angle between the flow direction L3 of the airflow and the reference plane is <NUM>°, a low flow rate region <NUM> may be formed after the deflector structure <NUM> along the length of the deflector structure <NUM>.

<FIG> is a schematic diagram illustrating a flow rate variation curve according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in <FIG>, the horizontal coordinate ("x-coordinate (mm)" shown in <FIG>) may correspond to the horizontal coordinate in <FIG>, and the vertical coordinate may indicate an airflow rate (m/s) relative to the different locations. A curve <NUM> (a curve labeled "<NUM>° incoming flow" in <FIG>) may refer to a flow rate variation curve at different locations when the angle between the flow direction and the reference surface <NUM> is <NUM>°, a curve <NUM> (a curve labeled "<NUM>° incoming flow" in <FIG>) may refer to a flow rate variation curve at different locations when the angle between the flow direction and the reference surface <NUM> is <NUM>°, and a curve <NUM> (the curve labeled "<NUM>° incoming flow" in <FIG>) may refer to a flow rate variation curve at different locations when the angle between the flow direction and the reference surface <NUM> is <NUM>°. As shown in <FIG>, when the angle between the flow direction of the airflow (e.g., the flow direction L1 of the airflow in the image a in <FIG>) and the reference plane <NUM> is <NUM>°, the horizontal coordinate may be within a range of <NUM>-<NUM>, which indicates a low-flow rate (e.g., less than <NUM>/s), wherein the very small values of the airflow rate are at <NUM>-<NUM> and <NUM>-<NUM> in the x coordinate. When the flow direction of the airflow (for example, the flow direction L1 of the airflow in <FIG>, FIG. b) has an angle of <NUM>° with the reference plane <NUM>, wherein the minimum value of the airflow rate may be at <NUM>-<NUM> and <NUM>-<NUM> in the x coordinate. When the angle of the flow direction of the airflow and the reference plane <NUM> is <NUM>°, the minimum value of the airflow rate may be at <NUM>-<NUM> and <NUM>-<NUM> in the x coordinate.

As shown in <FIG> and <FIG>, the deflector structure <NUM> may provide a corresponding low-flow rate region when facing airflow in different incoming directions. However, the location of the low-flow rate region (e.g., less than <NUM>/s) in the deflector structure <NUM> has some variability when facing airflow in different incoming directions. In some embodiments, the mounting location of the microphone or the sound inlet hole corresponding to the microphone may be adapted to the different application scenarios of the wearable device. For example, when a user wears a wearable device for running or cycling, the direction of external airflow may be mainly in the direction opposite to the user's movement. At this time, the deflector structure <NUM> can be specifically set, for example, the height direction of the deflector structure (e.g., a direction of the arrow y shown in the image a in <FIG>) may be perpendicular or approximately perpendicular to the direction of the user's movement, thereby ensuring that the inlet aperture corresponding to the microphone is in the low-flow rate region.

In order to ensure that the microphone is in the low-flow rate region in different incoming flow directions, the present disclosure also provides a deflector structure in <FIG> and their corresponding contents.

<FIG> is a schematic diagram illustrating a deflector structure according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in <FIG>, the deflector structure <NUM> may include a first connecting section <NUM>, a concave section <NUM>, and a second connecting section <NUM> connected in sequence, wherein the concave section <NUM> has a downward depression region relative to the deflector structure <NUM>. In some embodiments, the first connecting section <NUM> and the second connecting section <NUM> may have rod-like structures.

The second connecting section <NUM> may include a third end portion <NUM> and a fourth end portion <NUM>. The third end portion <NUM> may be connected to an end of the concave section <NUM> away from the first connecting section <NUM>. In some embodiments, the concave section <NUM> may include a first connecting portion <NUM> and a second connecting portion <NUM>, the first connecting portion <NUM> may be obliquely connected to the second end portion <NUM> of the first connecting section <NUM> and extending downward, the second connecting portion <NUM> may be obliquely connected to the third end portion <NUM> of the second connecting section <NUM> and extending downward, the end of the first connecting portion <NUM> away from the first connecting section <NUM> may be connected to the end of the second connecting portion <NUM> away from the second connecting section <NUM>, thereby forming a region having a downward depression region relative to the deflector structure <NUM>. To ensure that the depression region of the concave section <NUM> can provide a more stable low-flow rate region at the corresponding sound inlet hole of the microphone, in some embodiments, a distance between the first connecting portion <NUM> and the second connecting portion <NUM> may decrease gradually along a depressed direction of the concave section <NUM>. The distance between the first connecting portion <NUM> and the second connecting portion <NUM> may be a distance between the sidewalls positioned opposite each other in the first connecting portion <NUM> and the second connecting portion <NUM> along the length of the deflector structure <NUM> (characterized by the "D" shown in the figure). In some embodiments, the shape of the concave section <NUM> formed by the first connecting portion <NUM> and the second connecting portion <NUM> may be other shapes such as a circular arc, a quadrilateral (e.g., an inverted trapezoid), a V-shape, etc. It should be noted that the shape of the lower concave section <NUM> is not limited to the above-mentioned shape, but can be any shape that can achieve that the first connecting portion <NUM> and the second connecting portion <NUM> form a downward depression region relative to the deflector structure <NUM>. For more information about the specific shape of the concave section <NUM>, please refer to <FIG> and relevant descriptions.

One or more downward depression regions relative to the deflector structure <NUM> may be formed in the deflector structure <NUM> by providing a first connecting section <NUM>, a second connecting section <NUM>, and a concave section <NUM>, which may provide a stable low-flow rate region in a particular airflow direction. For example, when the air flow direction is parallel to the length direction of the deflector structure <NUM>, the first connecting section <NUM> of the deflector structure <NUM> may direct the air to a position higher than the deflector structure <NUM>, so that the depression region at the concave section <NUM> is a low-flow rate region. As another example, when the air flow direction is perpendicular to the length direction of the deflector structure <NUM>, the air flow may flow out from both sides of the concave section <NUM> that are perpendicular to the length direction of the vertical deflector structure <NUM> due to the action of the concave section <NUM>, and the bottom side of the depression region in the concave section <NUM> may be a stagnant region of the air flow. Setting the first microphone corresponding to the first sound inlet hole <NUM> at this region can reduce the influence of external airflow on the first microphone. In some embodiments, the first microphone may be located inside the concave section <NUM>. For example, the concave section <NUM> has a cavity that is connected to the external environment through a first sound inlet hole <NUM>, and the components of the first microphone (e.g., a diaphragm, a transducer, etc.) may be located in this cavity, and the lower concave section <NUM> may be considered a housing for the first microphone. In some embodiments, the first microphone may be a separate component relative to the concave section <NUM>. For example, the first microphone may include a housing, which is connected to the concave section <NUM>, and the diaphragm, the transducer, and other components of the first microphone are located in the housing, which may include a first sound inlet hole <NUM> through which external sound may act on the diaphragm of the first microphone. The further the location of the depression region of the concave section <NUM> is from the top of the deflector structure <NUM>, the lower the airflow rate. In order to improve the quality of the sound signal collected by the first microphone when the user is speaking, in some embodiments, the first sound inlet hole <NUM> corresponding to the first microphone may be located on the side wall corresponding to the depression region. Preferably, the first microphone corresponding to the first sound inlet hole <NUM> may be located at the bottom side of the depression region in the concave section <NUM>. In some embodiments, the first microphone may be made less susceptible to external airflow by adjusting the height of the first sound inlet hole <NUM> relative to the bottom side of the depression region. In some embodiments, a ratio of a distance from the first sound inlet hole <NUM> to the bottom side of the depression region to a distance from the second end portion <NUM> to the bottom side of the depression region may range from <NUM>-<NUM>. Preferably, the ratio of the distance from the first sound inlet hole <NUM> to the bottom side of the depression region to the distance from the second end portion <NUM> to the bottom side of the depression region may range from <NUM>-<NUM>. Further preferably, the ratio of the distance from the first sound inlet hole <NUM> to the bottom side of the depression region to the distance from the second end portion <NUM> to the bottom side of the depression region may range from <NUM>-<NUM>. More preferably, the ratio of the distance from the first sound inlet hole <NUM> to the bottom side of the depression region to the distance from the second end portion <NUM> to the bottom side of the depression region may range from <NUM>-<NUM>. It should be noted that the distance from the first sound inlet hole <NUM> to the bottom side of the depression region may be a minimum distance from the first sound inlet hole <NUM> to the plane where the bottom part of the depression region is located when the user is wearing the wearable device. The distance from the second end portion <NUM> to the bottom side of the depression region is the distance from the highest point of the second end portion <NUM> to the plane where the bottom side of the depression region is located when the wearable device is worn by the user. It should be noted that in some embodiments, the bottom side of the depression region may be a flat, convex, concave or irregular surface. When the bottom side of the depression region is non-planar, the plane where the bottom side of the depression region is located may be determined by connecting the boundaries of the bottom side of the first connecting portion <NUM> with the second connecting portion <NUM> and the depression region.

In some embodiments, the wearable device may also include one or more second microphones, and a second sound inlet hole <NUM> corresponding to the second microphone(s) may be located at the second connecting section <NUM>. In some embodiments, the second sound inlet hole <NUM> corresponding to the second microphone(s) may also be located at the second connecting portion <NUM> of the concave section <NUM>. For example, the second sound inlet hole <NUM> corresponding to the second microphone(s) may be located on the side wall of the depression region corresponding to the second connecting portion <NUM>. As another example, the second microphone <NUM> may be located on the side of the second connecting portion <NUM> that is back away from the depression region.

<FIG> is a schematic diagram illustrating a structure of a deflector structure according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. In the deflector structure in the image a in <FIG>, a concave section 712a has an approximate V-shaped structure. In order to direct airflow from the external environment to a location above the depression region of the concave section 712a, in some embodiments, the height of the first end portion <NUM> of the first connecting portion <NUM> relative to the bottom side of the concave section 712a may be not greater than the height of the second end portion <NUM> relative to the bottom side of the concave section 712a. The height of the first end portion <NUM> relative to the bottom side of the concave section 712a may refer to a distance D1 between the upper end face of the first end portion <NUM> and the plane in which the bottom side of the concave section 712a is located. The height of the second end portion <NUM> relative to the bottom side of the concave section 712a may refer to a distance D2 between the upper end face of the second end portion <NUM> and the plane in which the bottom side of the concave section 712a is located. The plane in which the bottom side of the concave section <NUM> is located (indicated by a dotted dashed line O in <FIG>, hereinafter referred to as plane O) may be parallel or approximately parallel to the direction of the length of the deflector structure. In some embodiments, a height of the third end portion <NUM> relative to the bottom side of the concave section 712a may be not less than a height of the fourth end portion <NUM> relative to the bottom side of the concave section 712a. The height of the third end portion <NUM> relative to the bottom side of the concave section 712a may be a distance D3 between the upper end face of the third end portion <NUM> and the plane (i.e., the plane O) in which the bottom side of the concave section 712a is located. The height of the fourth end portion <NUM> relative to the bottom side of the concave section 712a may be a distance D4 between the upper end face of the fourth end portion <NUM> and the plane (i.e., the plane O) in which the bottom side of the concave section 712a is located. When the external airflow passes through the second end portion <NUM>, in order to prevent the airflow from being blocked by the third end portion <NUM> and entering the depression region, in some embodiments, a height of the second end portion <NUM> relative to the bottom side of the concave section 712a may be not less than the height of the third end portion relative to the bottom side of the concave section, that is, the distance D2 is not less than the distance D3.

The deflector structures shown in images b, c, and d in <FIG> may be substantially the same as those in the image a in <FIG>, and the difference is the deflector structures in the images b, c, and d have different concave sections. As the deflector structure shown in the image b in <FIG>, the concave section 712b has structure similar to an inverted trapezoid, such that the concave section 712b forms a low flow rate region similar to the inverted trapezoidal region. As the deflector structure shown in the image c in <FIG>, if the concave section 712c is circular, the concave section 712c may form a circular low-flow rate region. As the deflector structure shown in the image d in <FIG>, if the concave section 712d is a W-like structure, the concave section 712d may form a W-like low-flow rate region. For more information about the first connecting section, the second connecting section, and the height between their ends and the base in <FIG>, please refer to descriptions about the image a in <FIG> above.

To further illustrate that the deflector structure can provide a stable low-flow rate region in various airflow directions, <FIG> are provided. <FIG> is a schematic diagram illustrating flow fields of different flow directions according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. The following descriptions take a concave section having a V-shaped structure as an example. As shown in the image a in <FIG>, the deflector structure is set along the flow direction of the airflow, wherein the flow rate of the airflow is <NUM>/s, and the length direction of the deflector structure is the same as the flow direction of the airflow. The first connecting section <NUM> of the deflector structure may change the flow direction of the airflow, and the flow direction of the airflow changes under the action of the first end of the first connecting section <NUM>. A portion of the airflow acting on the first end of the first connecting section <NUM> flows along the location above the first connecting section <NUM>, continues to flow in the direction of the length of the deflector structure when it passes through the concave section <NUM> and forms a low flow rate region <NUM> in the depression region of the concave section <NUM>. As shown in the images b and c in <FIG>, when an angle between the flow direction of the airflow and the length direction of the deflector structure is <NUM>° and <NUM>°, respectively, the airflow may flow out from both sides of the concave section <NUM> that are perpendicular to the length direction of the deflector structure due to the action of the concave section <NUM>, and the bottom side of the depression region in the concave section <NUM> is the stagnant region of the airflow (e.g., the region <NUM> shown in the image b in <FIG> and the region <NUM> shown in the image c in <FIG>).

<FIG> is a schematic diagram illustrating a flow rate variation curve according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in <FIG>, the horizontal coordinate may indicate the length (mm), where the length may be a length of a path of an object starting at the second end portion <NUM> (illustrated in <FIG>) and moving along the surface of the side wall corresponding to the depression region in the concave section. The vertical coordinate may indicate an airflow rate (m/s) at different locations having different distances with respect to the second end portion. A curve <NUM> (the curve marked by "parallel incoming flow" in <FIG>) represents a flow rate variation curve at different locations when the flow direction is parallel to the length direction of the deflector structure, a curve <NUM> (the curve marked by "<NUM>° incoming flow rate" in <FIG>) is a flow rate variation curve at different locations when the angle between the flow direction and the length direction of the deflector structure is <NUM>°, and a curve <NUM> (the curve marked by "<NUM>° incoming flow rate" in <FIG>) is a flow rate variation curve at different locations when the angle between the flow direction and the length direction of the deflector structure is <NUM>°. As shown in <FIG>, in the region <NUM>-<NUM> to the right of the second end portion <NUM> of the first connecting section <NUM> (i.e., within the depression region of the concave section <NUM>), the airflow rates in different incoming flow directions may be less than <NUM>/s, and the airflow rate in this region may be much less than that of the external airflow (<NUM>/s). In addition, in the region <NUM>-<NUM> to the right of the second end portion <NUM> of the first connecting section <NUM> (the bottom side of the depression region), the airflow rates in different incoming flow directions have very small values.

As shown in <FIG> and <FIG>, it can be seen that the depression region of the concave section in the deflector structure may provide a location-specific low flow rate region when facing the airflow in different incoming directions, and at the same time, a minimal value of the airflow rate in different incoming directions may occur within a specific region when facing the airflow in different incoming directions in the deflector structure. In order to reduce the influence of external airflow on the first microphone and to ensure the quality of the sound signal captured by the first microphone when the user is speaking, in some embodiments, the corresponding sound inlet hole of the first microphone may be located at the side wall corresponding to the concave section of the depression region. In some embodiments, starting from the second end portion, along the side wall corresponding to the depression region of the concave section (e.g., the V-shaped profile illustrated in the image a in <FIG>), the inlet hole corresponding to the first microphone may be located at a location <NUM>- <NUM> from the second end portion of the first connecting section. Preferably, the corresponding sound inlet hole of the first microphone may be located at a location <NUM>- <NUM> from the second end portion of the first connecting section. Further preferably, the corresponding sound inlet hole of the first microphone may be located at a location <NUM>- <NUM> from the second end portion of the first connecting section. More preferably, the corresponding sound inlet hole of the first microphone may be located at a location <NUM>- <NUM> from the second end portion of the first connecting section. Merely by way of example, the corresponding sound inlet hole of the first microphone may be located at a location <NUM> from the second end portion in the first connecting section. It should be noted that the distance from the second end portion of the first connecting section is the length of the path of an object moving from the second end portion <NUM> (illustrated in <FIG>) along the side wall surface corresponding to the depression region in the concave section. In some embodiments, the impact of external airflow on the first microphone may also be reduced by adjusting the ratio of the size of the corresponding sound inlet hole of the first microphone relative to the bottom side of the depression region to the length of the first connecting portion or the second connecting section. When the sound inlet hole corresponding to the first microphone is on the side wall of the first connecting portion, in some embodiments, a ratio of the size of the sound inlet hole relative to the bottom side of the depression region to the length of the first connecting portion may range from <NUM> to <NUM>. Preferably, the ratio of the size of the inlet hole relative to the bottom side of the depression region to the length of the first connecting portion may range from <NUM>-<NUM>. Further preferably, the ratio of the size of the inlet hole relative to the bottom side of the depression region to the length of the first connecting portion may range from <NUM>-<NUM>. When the sound inlet hole corresponding to the first microphone is in the second connecting portion, a ratio range of the size of the inlet hole relative to the bottom side of the depression region to the length of the second connecting portion can be referred to the ratio range of the size of the sound inlet hole relative to the bottom side of the depression region to the length of the first connecting portion. It should be noted that the size of the sound inlet hole corresponding to the first microphone relative to the bottom side of the depression region refers to the length of the path of an object moving from the sound inlet hole to the bottom side of the depression region. In some embodiments, a side wall of the first connecting portion or the second connecting portion corresponding to the depression region is a flat plane or a curved plane.

When a user wears the wearable device, one side of the concave section may be close to or fits the user's skin (hereinafter referred to as a first side section), and the other side of the concave section may be away from the user's skin (hereinafter referred to as a second side section). To further improve the quality of the sound signal captured by the first microphone, in some embodiments, the corresponding sound inlet hole of the first microphone may be located in the depression region in the concave section near the first side portion when the user is wearing the wearable device. For example, a sound inlet hole corresponding to the first microphone may be located on the first connecting section, the second connecting portion, or the bottom side of the depression region near the first side section. In some embodiments, a distance between the corresponding sound inlet hole of the first microphone and the first side section may be <NUM> - <NUM>.

To further reduce the effect of external airflow on the first microphone, the wearable device may also include a sound conduction structure for transmitting external sound, the sound conduction structure may be connected to the concave section, the sound conduction structure may have an internal pass through structure, one end of the sound conduction structure may be connected to the external environment, and the first microphone may be located at the other end of the sound conduction structure.

As shown in <FIG>, the sound conduction structure <NUM> may be an internal passthrough structure, and the sound conduction structure <NUM> may be provided with a plurality of sound conduction channels inside, and the plurality of sound conduction channels may be obliquely connected in sequence. The sound conduction channel located at the top of the sound conduction structure <NUM> may be connected to the external environment, and the first microphone may be located at the sound conduction channel at the bottom side of the sound conduction structure <NUM>. When the external airflow enters the sound conduction structure <NUM>, the airflow may form a vortex when it meets the bending connection of the two sound conduction channels, the kinetic energy of the airflow is consumed at this time, and when the airflow reaches the first microphone, the rate of the airflow may be greatly reduced, thus further reducing the impact of the external airflow on the sound signal collected by the first microphone. In some embodiments, the shape of the sound conduction channel <NUM> may be cylindrical, polygonal (e.g., rectangular, trigonal), trapezoidal, or other regular shapes. In some embodiments, the sound conduction channel <NUM> may also be non-regularly shaped, for example, horn-shaped.

In order to ensure the wind noise reduction effect of the sound conduction structure, a bending angle of each sound conduction channel in the sound conduction structure <NUM> is set within a specific range of angles. Merely by way of example, in some embodiments, the bending angles of the sound conduction channels in the sound conduction structure <NUM> may be in a range of <NUM>°-<NUM>°. Preferably, the bending angle of each sound conduction channel in the sound conduction structure <NUM> may be in a range of <NUM>°-<NUM>°. Further preferably, the bending angle of each sound conduction channel in the sound conduction structure <NUM> may be in a range of <NUM>°-<NUM>°. More preferably, the bending angle of each sound conduction channel in the sound conduction structure <NUM> may be <NUM>°. It should be noted that the bending angles of different sound conduction channels may be the same or different, and the bending angle of each sound conduction channel in the sound conduction structure <NUM> is not limited to the above range, but may also be greater than <NUM>° or less than <NUM>°. In some embodiments, the cross-sectional shape of the sound conduction channel may be polygonal (e.g., triangular, quadrilateral, pentagonal, etc.), circular, semicircular, elliptical, semi-elliptical, and other shapes. In some embodiments, the dimensions of the different locations of the sound conduction channels may be the same or different. For example, the sound conduction channel may be a cylindrical channel, where the radius of each location of the sound conduction channel is the same. As another example, the sound conduction channel may be horn-shaped, in which case the radius of the channel increases or decreases gradually. In some embodiments, the shapes of the plurality of sound conduction channels may be the same or different. In addition, the bending portion between different sound conduction channels may be chamfered so that the airflow can create turbulence at the bend.

In some embodiments, the total length of the sound conduction channels in the sound conduction structure <NUM> (the sum of the lengths of all the sound conduction channels) may be adjusted to ensure the wind noise reduction effect of the sound conduction structure. Merely by way of example, in some embodiments, the total length of the sound conduction channels may be greater than <NUM>. Preferably, the total length of the sound conduction channels may be greater than <NUM>. Further preferably, the total length of the sound conduction channels may be greater than <NUM>. Preferably, the total length of the sound conduction channels may be greater than <NUM>. For example, the total length of the sound conduction channels may be <NUM>. In some embodiments, the wind noise reduction effect of the sound conduction structure may also be ensured by adjusting the count of bends between the sound conduction channels in the sound conduction structure <NUM>. Merely by way of example, in some embodiments, the count of bends between the sound conduction channels may be greater than five. In some embodiments, the count of bends between the sound conduction channels may be greater than eight. In some embodiments, the count of bends between the sound conduction channels may be greater than <NUM>.

In some embodiments, channels having different volumes may be provided in the sound conduction structure to reduce the airflow rate at the first microphone. <FIG> is a schematic diagram illustrating a structure of a sound conduction structure according to some embodiments of the present disclosure. As shown in <FIG>, in some embodiments, the sound conduction structure <NUM> may include a cavity <NUM>, which is connected to the external through a connecting hole <NUM>. In some embodiments, the count of cavities <NUM> may be more than one, and the plurality of cavities <NUM> may be located at intervals along the length of the sound conduction structure <NUM>, wherein the adjacent cavities <NUM> may also be connected to each other by a connecting hole <NUM>. In some embodiments, the size of a cavity <NUM> along the width of the sound conduction structure <NUM> is larger than the size of a connecting hole <NUM> along the width of the sound conduction structure <NUM>. When the external airflow enters the sound conduction structure <NUM>, the airflow may form a vortex system structure after encountering the connection between the connecting hole <NUM> and the cavity <NUM> due to the sudden change in volume, which causes the kinetic energy of the airflow to be consumed, and when the airflow reaches the first microphone, the rate of the airflow is greatly reduced, thus further reducing the effect of the external airflow on the sound signal collected by the first microphone.

In some embodiments, the dimensions (e.g., length, width, volume, or surface area) of a cavity or a connecting hole may be adjusted to ensure the wind noise reduction of the sound conduction structure. In some embodiments, the volume of a single cavity <NUM> may be greater than <NUM><NUM>. Preferably, the volume of a single cavity <NUM> may be greater than <NUM><NUM>. Further preferably, the volume of a single cavity <NUM> may be greater than <NUM><NUM>. More preferably, the volume of a single cavity <NUM> may be greater than <NUM><NUM>. More preferably, the volume of a single cavity <NUM> may be greater than <NUM><NUM>. For example, the volume of a single cavity <NUM> may be <NUM><NUM>. In some embodiments, the surface area corresponding to a single cavity <NUM> may be greater than <NUM><NUM>. Preferably, the surface area corresponding to a single cavity <NUM> may be greater than <NUM><NUM>. More preferably, the surface area corresponding to a single cavity <NUM> may be greater than <NUM><NUM>. More preferably, the surface area corresponding to a single cavity <NUM> may be greater than <NUM><NUM>. For example, the surface area corresponding to a single cavity <NUM> may be <NUM><NUM>. In some embodiments, the diameter of a connecting hole <NUM> may be <NUM>-<NUM>, and the length of the connecting hole <NUM> may be less than <NUM>. In some embodiments, the diameter of a connecting hole <NUM> may be <NUM>-<NUM>, and the length of the connecting hole <NUM> may be less than <NUM>. For example, in some embodiments, the diameter of a connecting hole <NUM> may be <NUM> and the length of the connecting hole <NUM> may be <NUM>. In some embodiments, the cross-sectional shape of a cavity <NUM> may be polygonal (e.g., triangular, quadrilateral, pentagonal, etc.), circular, semicircular, elliptical, semi-elliptical, and other shapes.

It should be noted that the sound conduction structure <NUM> shown in <FIG> and the sound conduction structure <NUM> shown in <FIG> can be installed in any microphone other than the first microphone, for example, the second microphone may also be provided with the sound conduction structure <NUM> or the sound conduction structure <NUM>. In some embodiments, the sound conduction structure may also be a combination of the sound conduction structure <NUM> shown in <FIG> and the sound conduction structure <NUM> shown in <FIG>. In some embodiments, the ends or internals of a sound conduction structure (e.g., the sound conduction structure <NUM> and the sound conduction structure <NUM>) may also be provided with a mesh structure (not shown in the figures) to further reduce the effect of wind noise on the first microphone. In addition, the mesh structure prevents dust and particles in the outside world from entering the microphone.

In some embodiments, the wearable device may include a first microphone and a second microphone, wherein when the user wears the wearable device, the connection line of the first microphone and the second microphone is in the direction of the mouth of the user, and the distance between the first microphone and the mouth of the user is smaller than the distance between the second microphone and the mouth of the human body. At this time, the first microphone may primarily be used to pick up the sound signal when the user is speaking, the second microphone may also pick up the sound signal when the user is speaking, and the processor of the wearable device may determine the sound signal when the user is speaking among the sound signals picked up by the first microphone and the second microphone through an algorithm, so that other sound signals (e.g., wind noise) can be filtered and processed. In some embodiments, the distance between the first microphone and the second microphone may be <NUM>-<NUM>. Preferably, the distance between the first microphone and the second microphone may be <NUM> to <NUM>. Preferably, the distance between the first microphone and the second microphone may be <NUM>-<NUM>. In some embodiments, the vibration direction of the diaphragm in the first microphone may be substantially perpendicular to the vibration direction of the diaphragm in the second microphone. The substantially perpendicular means that the vibration direction of the diaphragm in the first microphone may be <NUM>° to the vibration direction of the diaphragm in the second microphone, or an angle close to <NUM>°, such as <NUM>°, <NUM>°, <NUM>°, <NUM>°, etc. As shown in <FIG>, in some embodiments, a first sound inlet hole <NUM> corresponding to the first microphone may be located at the side wall corresponding to the depression region in a concave section <NUM>. For example, the first sound inlet hole <NUM> corresponding to the first microphone may be located at the first connecting portion or the second connecting portion of the concave section <NUM>, or the connection between the two connecting portions. In order to further determine the wind noise in the sound signal picked up by the microphone, the vibration direction of the diaphragm of the first microphone is set perpendicular or approximately perpendicular to the vibration direction of the diaphragm of the second microphone, and the wind noise picked up by the microphone (e.g., the first microphone and the second microphone) may be further cancelled by an algorithm based on the correlation of the wind noises. In some embodiments, a second sound inlet hole <NUM> corresponding to the second microphone may be located at the second connecting section <NUM> such that when the user wears the wearable device, a line connecting the first sound inlet hole <NUM> corresponding to the first microphone and the second sound inlet hole <NUM> corresponding to the second microphone directs toward the mouth of the user. In some embodiments, the second sound inlet hole <NUM> may also be located at the concave section <NUM>. For example, the second sound inlet hole <NUM> is located on the side of the second connecting portion of the concave section <NUM> away from the first sound inlet hole <NUM>. As another example, the second sound inlet hole <NUM> may also be located at the side wall of the second connecting portion corresponding to the depression region of the concave section <NUM>. In order to describe the length direction and width direction of the sound conduction structure more clearly, it is described in the context of the scenario when the user wears the wearable device. A three-dimensional coordinate system is established with any point of the head of the user as the origin, wherein the x-axis in the three-dimensional coordinate system is parallel to the horizontal plane, the z-axis is perpendicular to the horizontal plane, and the y-axis is perpendicular to the x-axis and z-axis. The length direction of the sound conduction structure may be regarded as the x-axis direction, the height direction of the sound conduction structure may be regarded as the z-axis direction, and the width direction of the sound conduction structure may be regarded as the y-axis direction. The length direction, width direction, or height direction of the sound conduction structure shown in each of the above accompanying figures (e.g., <FIG>, <FIG>, FIG. 12D) may refer to the scenario in <FIG> when a user is wearing a wearable device.

In some embodiments, the wearable device may also include an acoustic output unit <NUM>, and the acoustic output unit <NUM> may be located at the concave section <NUM>. In some embodiments, the acoustic output unit <NUM> may be located on the external surface of the concave section <NUM>. For example, when the acoustic output unit <NUM> is a bone conduction speaker, the acoustic output unit <NUM> may be located on the side of the concave section <NUM> that is in contact with the user. As another example, when the acoustic output unit <NUM> is an air conduction speaker, the acoustic output unit <NUM> may be located on the side of the concave section <NUM> that is not in contact with the user. In some embodiments, the acoustic output unit <NUM> may be located inside the concave section <NUM>. For example, the concave section <NUM> has an accommodation cavity (not shown in <FIG>), and the acoustic output unit <NUM> may be located in this accommodation cavity. When the acoustic output unit <NUM> is located in this accommodation cavity, the concave section <NUM> may serve as a housing for the acoustic output unit <NUM>, and other components of the acoustic output unit <NUM> (e.g., a magnetic circuit structure, a diaphragm, etc.) may be located in the concave section <NUM>. In some embodiments, the acoustic output unit <NUM> may include a diaphragm and a magnetic circuit structure (not shown in <FIG>), the diaphragm is connected to a voice coil, the voice coil extends into a magnetic gap of the magnetic circuit structure, the magnetic circuit structure is connected to the housing of the acoustic output unit <NUM> (or the concave section <NUM>). The side of the diaphragm facing the magnetic circuit structure forms the front of the acoustic output unit <NUM>, the side of the magnetic circuit structure facing the diaphragm forms the back of the acoustic output unit <NUM>, and the diaphragm vibrates so that the acoustic output unit radiates sound outward from its front and back, respectively. In some embodiments, the housing of the acoustic output unit <NUM> (or lower concave section <NUM>) may include at least two sound conduction holes (not shown in <FIG>), which may include a first sound conduction hole (also referred to as a sound outlet hole) and a second sound conduction hole (also referred to as a pressure relief hole). The first sound conduction hole may be used to output sound from the front of the acoustic output unit <NUM>, the second sound conduction hole may be used to output sound from the back of the acoustic output unit <NUM>, and the phase of the sound output from the first sound conduction hole and the phase of the sound output from the second sound conduction hole may be considered opposite so that the sound output from the first sound conduction hole and the sound output from the second sound conduction hole may form a dipole. When the user wears the wearable device, the first sound conduction hole is close to the user's ear canal opening and the second sound conduction hole is back to the user's ear canal opening, which makes the acoustic output unit <NUM> have a better acoustic output effect. In some embodiments, the count of first sound conduction holes and second sound conduction holes may be one or more. In some embodiments, the number, size, location, acoustic resistance, and other parameters of the first or second sound conduction hole may be adjusted to further improve the listening effect and sound leakage reduction effect of the wearable device.

The first microphone plays the main sound pickup function in picking up the sound signal when the user is speaking. In order to reduce the influence of the sound occurring in the acoustic output unit on the first microphone, in some embodiments, the vibration direction of the diaphragm of the first microphone is perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to the vibration direction of the diaphragm of the acoustic output unit. To further reduce the effect of the sound occurring in the acoustic output unit on the microphones, the first microphone and/or the second microphone may be located in the area least affected by the acoustic output unit, such as the acoustic zero region of the acoustic output unit. <FIG> are schematic diagrams illustrating a sound field radiation of an acoustic output unit according to some embodiments of the present disclosure, wherein <FIG> shows the sound field radiation diagram from the viewpoint indicated by the arrow M in <FIG>. As shown in <FIG>, the acoustic zero region of the acoustic output unit <NUM> is the darker colored region in the figures (i.e., a region <NUM>). The housing of the acoustic output unit <NUM> may include at least two sound conduction holes, which may include a first sound conduction hole <NUM> (also referred to as a sound outlet hole) and a second sound conduction hole <NUM> (also referred to as a pressure relief hole), the first sound conduction hole <NUM> may be configured to output sound from the front of the acoustic output unit <NUM>, and the second sound conduction hole <NUM> may be configured to output sound from the back of the acoustic output unit <NUM>. The phase of the sound output from the first sound conduction hole <NUM> and the phase of the sound output from the second sound conduction hole <NUM> may be considered opposite, such that the sound output from the first sound conduction hole <NUM> and the sound output from the second sound conduction hole <NUM> may construct an acoustic dipole and form an acoustic zero region <NUM>. In some embodiments, the location of the first microphone and the second microphone may be selected and determined based on the acoustic zero region of the acoustic output unit.
