The connecting component 30 can incur elastic deformation to change a distance between the two distal ends 32, so as to make the two headphone bodies 11 respectively connected to the two distal ends 32 approaching or departing from each other.

The present invention provides an embodiment in which the display device 20 of the wearable display equipment is connected to the headphone device 10 via the connecting component 30, and the connecting portion 213 of the display device 20 is disposed in the middle region 212 of the housing 21, i.e., the two ends along the axis direction Y of a side of the display device 20 adjacent to the two headphone bodies 11 are detachable from the connecting component 30. In the embodiment, the two ends of the display device 20 correspond to the two end regions 211. In the other embodiments, according to the different connecting manners between the connecting portion 213 and the connecting component 30, the middle region 212 could have a portion of unfixed region, and the two ends of the display device 20 further include the unfixed region of the middle region 212. When a user wears the wearable display equipment 1 and exerts force to separate the two headphone bodies 11 from each other, the two end regions 211 of the display device 20 are not connected to the connecting component 30. Thus, the portions of the connecting component 30 corresponding to the two end regions 211 further provide deformation space for the headphone bodies 11 to separate from each other.

The display device 20 is fixed to the connecting component 30 and projects image towards the direction of the two headphone bodies 11. In details, the housing 21 of the wearable display equipment includes a front-side display 21A having watching windows 216, and an exterior of the housing 21B opposite to the front-side display 21A. The watching window 216 is adapted for displaying the image content of the optical display module 22 within the housing 21. The connecting portion 213 is disposed in a middle region 212B of the exterior of the housing 21B that is remote from the two headphone bodies 11. In the embodiment, the display device 20 includes two sets of the optical display module 22, for providing two eyes of the user to watch the content of display respectively. In details, each set of the optical display modules 22 includes a set of micro display devices and optical modules (not shown), image produced by the micro display device is projected from the watching windows 216 to the left eye and the right eye of the user through the corresponding optical modules along a predetermined direction. Thus, the user can see the magnified virtual image of the display content of the micro display device. In the other embodiments, the optical display module could include a set of micro display devices as a single display source, project to the left eye and the right eye of the user respectively through two sets of the optical modules along its own projecting direction.

In the embodiment, the housing 21 further includes a housing topside 21C and a housing bottom-side (not shown), to build a sealed housing space, the two end regions 211 include two end regions 211A of the front-side display 21A adjacent to the two headphone bodies respectively, two end regions 211B of the exterior of the housing 21B adjacent to the two headphone bodies respectively, two end regions 211C of the housing topside 21C adjacent to the two headphone bodies respectively, and two end regions (not shown) of the housing bottom-side (not shown) adjacent to the two headphone bodies respectively. The middle region 212 includes a middle region 212A of the front-side display 21A, a middle region 212B of the exterior of the housing 21B, a middle region 212C of the housing topside 21C, and a middle region of the housing bottom-side. In details, the connecting component 30 covers the exterior of the housing 21B, the connecting portion 213 is disposed at the middle region 212B of the exterior of the housing 21B, and the two end regions 211B of the exterior of the housing 21B are not connected to the connecting component 30, so as to make the connecting component 30 made of the elastic materials having larger deformable region. The connecting portion 213 can be connected to the connecting component 30 in a manner selected from the group consisting of pasting, riveting, snap-fit structure, magnetic adsorption, pivoting junction and so on or combination of the above manners, because the above connecting manners are well known to the ordinary skilled person in the art, no more expatiation here. As shown in FIG. 1, in a natural state, i.e., without force exerted on the wearable display equipment, the connecting component 30 is in an original state. In the embodiment, in the original state the connecting component 30 is attached to the middle region 212B and the two end regions 211B of the exterior of the housing 21B. When a force is exerted to separate the two headphone bodies 11 from each other, as shown in FIG. 2, the portions of the connecting component 30 corresponding to the two end regions 211B in the original state are changed to depart from the two end regions 211B in an expanded state. In the embodiment, in the expanded state there is a certain predefined space X between the connecting component 30 and the side of the two end regions 211 adjacent to the headphone bodies 11, to provide an elastic space to separate the headphone bodies 11 from each other, so as to accommodate users having different width of face. The connecting component 30 is made of deformable elastic materials, it can provide a clamping force to make the two headphone bodies 11 approach each other when the user wears, to stabilize the state of wearing.

It could be understood that, in the other embodiments, the wearable display equipment is in the natural state, there is a certain predefined space between the connecting component 30 and the housing 21 including the side of the two end regions 211 where the connecting portion 213 is located, that is, non-attaching disposed. Additionally, it must be noted that, the partition and the proportion of the middle region 212 and the two end regions 211 are not limited to what is shown in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3. Two opposite ends of the display device 20 adjacent to the two headphone bodies 11 respectively are just not fixedly connected to the connecting component 30, compared with the state in which the connecting component 30 is fixedly connected, the connecting component 30 has a larger deformable space.

Preferably, the wearable display equipment further includes a head mounted bracket 40 connected to the two headphone bodies 11, which combines with the headphone bodies 11 to form a similar headphone. The two distal ends 32 of the connecting component 30 are rotatably connected to the corresponding headphone body 11 respectively. In details, the two distal ends 32 of the connecting component 30 each includes a rotating ring 33, each is connected to the corresponding headphone body 11, the rotating ring 33 and the headphone body 11 can correspondingly set up a meshing rotational tooth structure or a hinged structure to achieve rotation connection. Thus the headphone is rotatable relative to the display device 20 via the connecting component 30. When it is rotated approximately 90 degree, i.e. the headphone is worn correctly, the display device 20 is positioned in front of the eyes of the user, and what the two eyes watch is the content of image provided by the optical display module 22 within the housing 21 through the corresponding watching window 216. In the other embodiments, when the wearable display equipment is worn correctly, an angle between the display device 20 and the head mounted bracket 40 can be flexibly disposed according to different forms of the headphone. When the headphone rotates with the display device 20 to be in a tucked state, that is the head mounted bracket 40 is tucked to the display device 20, the space volume occupied by the product decreases, it is convenient for the user to store and carry. Additionally, in the other embodiments, each distal end 32 further includes a telescopic structure, so that the user can adjust the distance between the display device 20 and the eyes of the user.

In the other embodiments, the connecting portion can be disposed in the middle region 212A of the front-side display 21A of the housing, the detailed position can be flexibly disposed according to the detailed design of the product, as long as it does not affect the viewing perspective of the user through the watching window 216 of the front-side display 21A. The connecting portion 213 can also be disposed at the middle region 212C of the housing topside 21C, the middle region of the housing bottom-side, or simultaneously disposed at the housing topside 21C and the housing bottom-side. Thus the connecting component 30 can be two connecting belts, multiple connecting portions also can be disposed at any side of the housing 21, are connected to the connecting component 30 consisting of multiple connecting belts respectively. The connecting portion 213 also can be disposed at the middle region 212 in the housing 21, thus the connecting components 30 can be disposed in the housing 21 and each extend through the lateral sides of the housing 21 correspondingly facing the headphone bodies 11. It could be understood that, the housing 21 can include multiple lateral sides according to the detailed form, the connecting portion 213 is flexibly disposed at the middle region 212 constructed by the multiple lateral sides, as long as the connecting portion 213 is not disposed at the two end regions 211 of the display device 20 adjacent to the headphone bodies 11. Thereby, the two end regions 211 of the display device 20 are in a non-connecting state, the portions of the connecting component 30 corresponding to the two end regions 211 increase the deformation space to be provided, when the user wears the wearable display equipment 2 and exerts force to separate the two headphone bodies 11 from each other, via the connecting component 30 partially connected to the display device 20 it reduces limitations that the form of the display device imposing on the connecting component 30.
