The disclosure will be further elaborated below through specific embodiments with reference to drawings.

Embodiment 1

The embodiment of the disclosure provides a data processing method, applied to a charging device provided with a charging position. FIG. 1 shows a flowchart of a data processing method according to an embodiment 1 of the disclosure. As shown in FIG. 1, the method includes the steps as follows.

In step 101, when a wireless earphone is placed at the charging position of the charging device, a first connection is established between a first port of the charging device and a second port of the wireless earphone.

In step 102, the charging device supplies power to the wireless earphone through the first connection, and data is transmitted between the charging device and the wireless earphone via the first connection; or, a wireless connection is established between the charging device and the wireless earphone through a wireless communication module of the charging device, and data is transmitted between the charging device and the wireless earphone via the wireless connection.

In the present embodiment, the charging device is provided with at least one charging position, the charging position matching the wireless earphone in shape. FIG. 2A and FIG. 2B illustrate application diagrams of a charging device and a wireless earphone according to an embodiment of the disclosure respectively. As shown in FIG. 2A, the bottom end of the charging position is provided with a first port, and a second port is disposed at one end of the wireless earphone, wherein one end of the wireless earphone may be an end opposite to an in-ear side. When the wireless earphone is put into the charging position of the charging device, the first port and the second port come into contact so as to establish a first connection, specifically as shown in FIG. 2B. As an implementation manner, the first port and the second port have oppositely-polar magnetic materials, so the first port and the second port may serve as magnetic-attraction type charging interfaces; and when the wireless earphone is put into the charging position of the charging device, the first port and the second port are automatically attracted, and a connecting terminal of the second port and a connecting terminal of the first port are connected so as to establish the first connection. As other implementation manners, the first port and the second port may establish a first connection by using a Universal Serial Bus (USB) joint connecting manner, a DC-JACK joint connecting manner and other connecting manners.

In the present embodiment, as an implementation manner, a large-capacity rechargeable battery may be disposed in the charging device, and when the charging device is not connected with a power line, the rechargeable battery in the charging device may charge the wireless earphone via the first connection. As another implementation manner, the charging device may also be connected with a power line, and the charging device may charge the wireless earphone via the first connection based on electric energy supplied by the power line.

In the present embodiment, the first connection establish based on a physical connection manner has a function of transmitting electric energy, and may also transmit data, that is, data may be transmitted between the charging device and the wireless earphone via the first connection. Herein, the first port and the second port are based on the same communication protocol, and have the same structure. For example, the first port and the second port are provided with a first channel for transmitting electric energy and a second channel for transmitting data separately. The first connection based on the physical connection manner is higher in transmission speed, and does not need to be supported by a mobile terminal and a wireless network, thereby eliminating unnecessary flow consumption of the mobile terminal.

In the present embodiment, a wireless communication module may be disposed in the charging device, and the charging device may establish a wireless connection with the wireless earphone through the wireless communication module of the charging device. In the present implementation manner, it is not limited that data is transmitted between the charging device and the wireless earphone after the first connection is established between the wireless earphone and the charging device, that is, when the wireless earphone is placed in the charging device and charged, data is transmitted, and the charging device may also transmit data between the charging device and the wireless earphone via the wireless communication module of the charging device. Certainly, when the wireless earphone is not charged in the charging device, the charging device may also transmit data between the charging device and the wireless earphone via the wireless communication module of the charging device. Herein, the wireless communication module may, specifically, be at least one of a Wireless-Fidelity (Wi-Fi) module, a Bluetooth module or a mobile data network module (such as 2G/3G/4G networks).

In a specific implementation process, an indicator lamp for indicating a data transmission progress and/or a charging progress may be disposed in the charging device. As an implementation manner, the indicator lamp indicates the data transmission progress and/or the charging progress via a display state of the indicator lamp. For example, when the indicator lamp is red, it is indicated that data is transmitted currently or charging is performed currently, and when the indicator lamp is green, it is indicated that data transmission is already completed or charging is already completed. As another implementation manner, multiple indicator lamps indicate the data transmission progress and/or the charging progress via display states of the indicator lamps. For example, when the charging device is provided with three indicator lamps, only one or two of the three indicator lamps are turned on, and it is indicated that data is transmitted currently or charging is performed currently, and when all of the three indicator lamps are turned on, it is indicated that data transmission is already completed or charging is already completed. Certainly, the above example is only one of the implementation manners. An implementation manner of how to indicate, by an indicator lamp, a data transmission progress and/or a charging progress is not limited in the present embodiment.

Embodiment 2

Based on the embodiment 1, the embodiment of the disclosure also provides a data processing method, applied to a charging device provided with a charging position. FIG. 3 shows a flowchart of a data processing method according to an embodiment 2 of the disclosure. As shown in FIG. 3, the method includes the steps as follows.

In step 201, a second wireless connection is established between the charging device and a mobile terminal through a wireless communication module of the charging device.

In step 202, when a wireless earphone is placed at the charging position of the charging device, a first connection is established between a first port of the charging device and a second port of the wireless earphone.

In step 203, the charging device supplies power to the wireless earphone through the first connection, obtains, through the second wireless connection, data sent by the mobile terminal, and sends the data to the wireless earphone via the first connection.

In the present embodiment, a wireless communication module is also disposed in the charging device. The wireless communication module may, specifically, be at least one of a Wi-Fi module, a Bluetooth module or a mobile data network module (such as 2G/3G/4G networks). The wireless communication module is certainly not limited to the listed wireless communication modules. When the wireless communication module is Wi-Fi, the wireless communication module supports to connect routing equipment in a corresponding network. Correspondingly, the mobile terminal also has a corresponding wireless communication module. The charging device and the mobile terminal may establish a second wireless connection through the respective wireless communication modules. In the present embodiment, a process of establishing a first connection between the charging device and the wireless earphone may refer to the embodiment 1, and will not be elaborated herein. Certainly, in the present embodiment, a wireless connection may be established between the charging device and the wireless earphone via the wireless communication module of the charging device, so as to transmit data through the wireless connection. That is to say, in the present embodiment, a manner of data interaction between the charging device and the wireless earphone is not limited to the first connection based on a physical connection, or may be a wireless connection manner based on a wireless communication module.

In the present embodiment, as an implementation manner, a storage module may also be disposed in the charging device, the mobile terminal may send data to the charging device via the second wireless connection based on an operation of a user, and the sent data may be stored in the storage module of the charging device.

In the present embodiment, the wireless earphone is provided with a storage region, wherein relevant information (such as software version information) about the wireless earphone and audio data may be stored in the storage region. That is to say, even if the wireless earphone does not establish a wireless connection with the mobile terminal, audio data stored in the wireless earphone may be played. However, due to a small capacity of the storage region, the quantity of the stored audio data is small. Therefore, it is necessary to update the audio data stored in the storage region. On the basis of this, after a first connection is established between the wireless earphone and the charging device, the charging device may supply power to the wireless earphone through the first connection, and the charging device may send audio data stored in the charging device to the wireless earphone and update the audio data stored in the wireless earphone. Or, after a wireless connection is established between the wireless earphone and the charging device, the charging device may transmit data between the charging device and the wireless earphone through the wireless connection, so as to update the audio data stored in the wireless earphone. Herein, the storage module in the charging device may be specifically implemented by means of a non-volatile storage unit such as a flash EEPROM.

As another implementation manner, a storage module may not be disposed in the charging device. After a first connection is established between the charging device and the wireless earphone and the second wireless connection is established between the charging device and the mobile terminal, or after a wireless connection is established between the charging device and the wireless earphone and the second wireless connection is established between the charging device and the mobile terminal, the mobile terminal may send data to the charging device via the second wireless connection based on an operation of a user, and the charging device sends the received data to the wireless earphone directly via the first connection or the wireless connection.

Compared with direct transmission, the manner of storing and transmitting in sequence has the advantages that a more flexible choice in usage is provided for a user. For example, the user may self-select to update the stored contents to the earphone.
