(a) Technical Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to an earphone cum microphone, and in particular, an earphone cum microphone structure provided with independent transmission connector allowing adaptor of various connector for entertainments such as MP3, Creative Destruction, or computer application such as MSN, SKYPE, or communication such as handphone.
(b) Description of the Prior Art
In conventional earphone and microphone technology the user of the earphone and microphone is restricted by the connector of the device and the female connector of the sound source. In other words, if the earphone and the microphone are not corresponding transmission signal connectors, signal transmission is not possible. As a result, the application of earphone and microphone is very restricted, and therefore, consumers are required to buy separate microphone or earphone for entertainment or PC application, which is a burden to consumer and is inconvenient to the user.
In some conventional microphone cum earphone devices have transmission cables which are extended from the earphone. The outermost end of the device is a signal plug which is adapted to a specific sound source. If the earphone is to be provided with a microphone, the extended transmission cable is mounted with a microphone. This is the structure of earphone cum microphone structure available in the market. The drawback of the conventional earphone cum microphone has been mentioned earlier, wherein the application of the earphone and microphone is depending on the transmission connector and the female connector of the sound source.
In view of the above, it is an object of the present invention to provide a novel structure of earphone cum microphone which mitigates the above drawbacks.
The primary purpose of the present invention is to provide a multi-functional earphone cum microphone device with independent transmission connector comprising an earphone, a microphone, a call-transferring box and transmission cable or wire, characterized in that the earphone includes a main earphone and a secondary earphone being connected by a connection wire, and from the interior of the main earphone, a specific length of earphone signal wire is extended and the end head of the signal wire is mounted with the call-transferring box having a connection male socket for the linkage with connector of any transmission source.
Yet still another object of the present invention is to provide a multi-functional earphone cum microphone, wherein the call-transferring box is a minute box body having on/off switches, volume adjusting button, microphone receiving port and components of corresponding socket.
A further object of the present invention is to provide a multi-functional earphone cum microphone, wherein the microphone is mounted either within the box body of the earphone cum microphone device or is connected separately.
Yet a further object of the present invention is to provide a multi-functional earphone cum microphone, wherein the transmission wire comprises two ends provided respectively with a male connector at one end to connect with the female socket on the call-transferring box and a connector for connecting with entertainment, work application and communication audio supplies.
