(a) Field of the Invention
The present invention is related to a MP3 headphone with enhanced functions, and more particularly to a multi-functional headphone of being a MP3, or a radio, or a conventional headphone.
(B) Description of the Prior Art
A conventional headphone includes a headband and ear coverings, wherein a cable is made to connect to a stereo or a computer. Besides serving as an audible device when connecting to a loaded MP3, the headphone does not serve other purposes, which is not convenient.
The present invention relates to an improved MP3 headphone structure that allows the headphone to be able to listen in to a MP3 or a radio alone and also able to connect with a stereo to listen in to music or with a computer for a video conference.
The present invention comprises a headband with an ear covering and a fixing seat formed each end, wherein a battery groove formed at one fixing seat and a MP3 and radio circuit board, a control key, and an USB outlet formed at the other, to be connected with a computer to download MP3 programs to the circuit board, thereby enabling the headphone to play MP3 programs or to serve as a radio.
The headphone structure according to the above, wherein an amplified circuit connecting with a microphone formed on the circuit board, thereby enabling the headphone to receive and transmit radio-wave when in the video conference.
The headphone structure according to the above, wherein an outlet connecting with the circuit board formed, to be connected with the stereo or the computer, thereby forming a conventional headphone.
To enable a further understanding of the said objectives and the technological methods of the invention herein, the brief description of the drawings below is followed by the detailed description of the preferred embodiments.
Referring to FIGS. 1˜3. The present invention comprises a headband 1 with an ear covering 4 and a fixing seat 2 (or 3) formed each end, wherein a battery groove 21 formed at the fixing seat 2 and a MP3 and radio circuit board 31 formed at the fixing seat 3, with a control key 311, a volume control roller 312, an USB outlet 313, an outlet 314, and a microphone 315 formed thereof. The power for the circuit board 31 is supplied by batteries through a wire inside the headband 1. Outer lids 22 and 32 are formed to cover fixing seats 2 and 3, respectively, wherein a button 321, corresponding to the control key 311, formed on the lid 32.
With the above structure, a headphone 100 is thereby formed, wherein the USB outlet 313 connecting with a computer to download MP3 programs to the circuit board 31, thereby enabling to listen in to MP3 programs through the ear coverings 4, with the button 321 to make a selection of MP3 programs or radio channels when listening in to the radio. Through the outlet 314, the microphone 315 on the headphone 100 can be used in the video conference when connecting with the computer or to listen in to music when connecting with the stereo.
