Method for protecting hearing of human ears, earphone and mobile terminal

Abstract

The invention discloses a method, an earphone and a mobile terminal for protecting hearing of human ears. The method comprises the following steps: collecting sound pressure data in an external auditory canal of human being in real time through a sound pressure sensor in the earphone and sending the collected sound pressure data to the mobile terminal; receiving the sound pressure data by the mobile terminal and confirming a volume value corresponding to the collected sound pressure data according to a mapping relation between the sound pressure data and the volume value which is confirmed in advance; judging if the confirmed volume value is greater than a first preset sound threshold by the mobile terminal, if yes, reducing an output volume value of the earphone according to a preset range, or reducing the output volume value of the earphone to a preset volume value, thereby protecting the hearing of a user. According to the method provided by the invention, the playing volume of the earphone can be accurately adjusted according to the volume value practically received by the ears, and the ears are effectively protected.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of mobile terminals, in particular to a method for protecting human hearing, an earphone and a mobile terminal. Background technique [0002] In daily life, people like to listen to various favorite music by connecting earphones to a mobile terminal (the mobile terminal can be a mobile phone, MD player, CD, MP3, MP4). However, when using earphones to listen to music, as the external environment noise increases, the user will increase the volume of the earphones to cover the noise of the external environment in order to hear the sound emitted by the earphones, which invisibly makes the sound emitted by the earphones will be big. [0003] When the user puts on the earphones, the channel opening of the outer ear is tightly blocked by the earphone, and the almost sealed and blocked outer ear channel formed by the earphone, the external auditory canal and the eardrum, the audio played by the earphone is concentrated on th...

Problems solved by technology

However, when using earphones to listen to music, as the external environment noise increases, the user will increase the volume of the earphones to cover the noise of the external environment in order to hear the sound emitted by the earphones, which invisibly makes the sound emitted by the earphones will be big

[0003] When the user puts on the earphones, the channel opening of the outer ear is tightly blocked by the earphone, and the almost sealed and blocked outer ear channel formed by the earphone, the external auditory canal and the eardrum, the audio played by the earphone is concentrated on the small vibrating piece, the sound It is only transmitted to the eardrum through the narrow, sealed and blocked outer ear channel, and the audio effect received by the eardrum is more concentrated than that of the speaker. Therefore, listening with headphones is more likely to hurt people's ears than listening with speakers; long-term use of headphones in this way will cause people's Hearing loss, severe deafness

[0004] In the prior art, when people feel that the external noise is too loud, they can only adjust the playback sound intuitively, and cannot accurately adjust the playback volume of the earphones according to the actual sound received by the ear, which cannot protect the ears well. may bring safety hazards to the user, and may easily lead to hearing loss of the user
