    [0001] The present invention relates to the field of devices for transmitting sound, in particular, music. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION In the prior art is known headphones, adapted to be worn on the head, comprising two headphones connected by a bow which are intended to cover the ears of the wearer of the helmet. These headphones are commonly referred to as closed earphones. Similarly, there are known headphones without connecting hoop that are intended to be positioned directly in an ear. These headphones are commonly referred to as in-ear earphones. For example, an infra-ear earpiece is known having a closure cap of the ear canal entrance of an ear or an earphone installed freely in said ear canal as taught by the patent application FR2915049. Typically, an in-ear earpiece comprises an electronic speaker on which is mounted a flexible tip to be blocked directly in the conduit of an ear. Such an earphone emits sounds in the immediate vicinity of the eardrum, the sound flow path in the flexible tip being short, of the order of 2-3 cm.
    [0002] The sound performance of such in-ear headphones is not optimal. The sound performance can be determined according to several parameters, in particular, the quality of the highs, the quality of the mediums, the quality of the basses and the spatiality of the sounds emitted. As a reminder, spatiality corresponds to the ability of sounds to be interpreted by the listener's brain as coming from various sources and from different locations. For example, when a listener is able to restore spatiality, the listener hears sounds from various sources and positioned more or less distant from him. In particular, woodwind instruments may seem closer to him than copper instruments, which improves the immersion of the listener.
    [0003] In practice, the conventional in-ear headphones do not have sufficient spatiality since the speaker of the earphone is very close to the ear of the listener, which has a disadvantage.
    [0004] In order to solve this drawback, a headphone is known whose speaker comprises an electronic module capable of generating a spatiality of the sounds by shifting certain frequencies relative to others. Not to mention its high cost, such an earphone allows to offer an artificial spatiality, which is not optimal to allow the immersion of the listener.
    [0005] The invention therefore aims to overcome these disadvantages by providing a simple design earphone that is able to provide a sound with optimal spatial qualities to improve listening listeners.
    [0006] GENERAL PRESENTATION OF THE INVENTION To this end, the invention relates to a device for transmitting sounds for an earphone, having an input opening extending along an input axis, said input opening being adapted to receiving a source of sound emission, an output aperture adapted to be presented in an ear and a diffusion chamber adapted to conduct the upstream sound downstream from said inlet opening to said outlet opening. The device is remarkable in that said diffusion enclosure comprises, facing said inlet opening, a first vibration wall extending orthogonally to the input axis adapted to resonate following a sound emission along said axis of 'Entrance. The sound transmission device according to the invention thus fulfills a function of a vibration box which makes it possible to shift the frequencies of the sounds emitted by the sound emission source and thus to increase the spatiality of the sounds. Unlike a conventional earpiece, the immersion of the listener is increased. Such immersion is all the more pleasant that it is performed mechanically by vibration of a wall. An orthogonal wall at the source of emission allows an optimal vibration without deformation of the sounds. In addition, the distance between the entrance opening and the exit opening makes it possible to increase the spatiality in comparison with a conventional earpiece which is fixed close to the ear canal. Preferably, the inlet opening and the outlet opening are offset by at least 5 cm, preferably by at least 10 cm.
    [0007] Preferably, the sound transmission device has a curved shape adapted to be mounted on an upper part of an ear so as to improve the ergonomics. Thus, there is a synergy between the conduction function of the sounds and the wearing function of the earpiece.
    [0008] Preferably, the diffusion chamber comprises an upstream portion of decreasing cross section. Thus, the sounds can be advantageously compressed during transmission, which improves the dynamics and intensity of said sounds. According to a preferred aspect, the diffusion chamber comprises a second vibration wall substantially parallel to said first vibration wall. Thus, two vibration walls make it possible to increase the vibrations in the transmission device, thus increasing the spatiality of the sounds. Preferably, the inlet opening is formed in the second vibration wall, which limits the size of the transmission device. Preferably, the diffusion chamber comprises at least one upper core in contact with the first vibration wall for the tender. The upper core makes it possible to increase the tension of the first vibration wall so that it vibrates in the manner of a drum skin. In addition, this increases the power of the sounds and thus avoids using an oversized sound source. Preferably, the diffusion chamber comprising a second vibration wall parallel to the first vibration wall, said upper core is mounted between the first vibration wall and the second vibration wall to mechanically transmit the vibrations between said vibration walls. Thus, the vibrations of the two walls of vibration are synchronized, which increases the spatiality of the sound.
    [0009] Preferably, said upper core extends substantially parallel to said input axis. Thus, said upper soul has a limited space in the diffusion chamber, which limits the risk of attenuation of the power of sounds.
    [0010] According to a preferred aspect, said diffusion chamber extending longitudinally, the diffusion chamber comprises at least one sounding part mounted in a lateral edge of said diffusion chamber and projecting into the cavity of said chamber of diffusion. The harmony piece allows, like a violin bar of a violin, to synthesize the sounds in order to balance the different sounds coming from the vibrations so as to form a coherent whole. Preferably, said diffusion chamber comprising an upper core, said sound piece is mounted downstream of said upper core. Thus, said harmony piece can filter all the sounds from vibrations. Advantageously, the harmony piece and the upper soul do not come into contact. Preferably, the sound transmission device comprises a blind lower chamber. Such a blind chamber makes it possible to lengthen the flow path of the sounds between the entrance opening and the exit opening, which improves the spatiality as well as the dynamics. Preferably, said blind lower chamber extends in the extension of the diffusion chamber. Thus, the communication between the lower chamber and the diffusion chamber is direct. More preferably, the first vibration wall forms part of the diffusion chamber and the lower chamber. Preferably still, the second vibration wall forms part of the diffusion chamber and the lower chamber. More preferably, said lower blind chamber has a lower core to increase vibrations in the lower chamber to enhance the spatiality effect. In addition, this increases the power of the sounds and thus avoids using an oversized sound source. Preferably, said blind lower chamber comprises a movable wall 35 adapted to modify the depth of said blind lower chamber. Advantageously, such a movable wall allows the listener to adjust the length of the sound flow path, which makes it possible to adjust the high, mid and low-frequency components of the sounds. In other words, the listener can adjust each listener according to his preference in order to benefit from an optimal listening with a spatiality adapted to his tastes. The invention also relates to an earpiece comprising a sound transmission device as presented above and a sound emission source mounted in the input opening of said sound transmission device.

    [0013] DESCRIPTION OF ONE OR MORE EMBODIMENTS OF IMPLEMENTATION AND IMPLEMENTATION With reference to FIG. 1, there is shown schematically an infra-auricular earphone 2 according to the invention mounted on a human ear 1 in the position of use.
    [0014] The in-ear earphone 2 comprises a sound transmission device 4 in which a sound emission source 3 is mounted. In this exemplary embodiment, the sound emission source 3 is in the form of a loudspeaker. speaker, of diameter between 12 and 15 mm, connected to a wired audio player. Nevertheless, it goes without saying that a wireless link, in particular Bluetooth, could be suitable.
    [0015] As illustrated in FIGS. 2 and 3, the sound transmission device 4 comprises an inlet opening 41, extending along an input axis X, which is capable of receiving the sound emission source 3, in particular a speaker. Also, preferably, the inlet opening 41 has an annular shape so as to cooperate by complementarity of shapes with a ring-shaped speaker. The sound transmission device 4 further comprises an outlet opening 42 adapted to be inserted into the duct of the ear. For this purpose, the outlet opening 42 has a diameter of the order of 3 to 5 mm so as to create a large final compression in order to obtain a significant decompression in the ear of the listener so as to increase the dynamic behavior of the sounds received. Preferably, the diameter of the outlet opening 42 is of the order of 3 to 4 mm. According to the invention, the sound transmission device 4 comprises a diffusion chamber 40 able to conduct the upstream sound downstream from said inlet opening 41 towards said outlet opening 42. In this embodiment, the device sound transmission unit 4 comprises a blind lower chamber 8 which extends from the inlet opening 41. By blind chamber 8 is meant a chamber with no opening except for the inlet opening 41. As will be shown below, the lower blind chamber 8 makes it possible to reflect the sounds coming from the inlet opening 41 before returning them towards the exit opening 42.
    [0016] Preferably, the sound transmission device comprises only a single inlet opening 41 and a single outlet opening 42 in order to avoid any reduction in the power of the sounds between the inlet opening 41 and the outlet opening 42. Preferably, the inlet opening 41 comprises a damper (glue, elastomer seal, etc.) for damping the vibrations generated by the sound emission source 3. As illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 3 , the sound transmission device 4 is curved so as to allow its ergonomic suspension on an ear 1.
    [0017] Diffusion chamber 40 As will be presented hereinafter, the diffusion chamber 40 allows direct transmission of sounds between the inlet opening 41 to the outlet opening 42 and a mechanical sound treatment by vibrations. In this embodiment, the diffusion chamber 40 comprises successively an upstream portion 5, an intermediate portion 6 and a downstream portion 7 for conducting the sound between the inlet opening 41 and the outlet opening 42. For example, the parts 5, 6, 7 are connected together by interlocking, but it goes without saying that certain parts could form a one-piece assembly, in particular the upstream and intermediate parts 6, so that the downstream part 7 remains orientable by the listener to facilitate the introduction of the earpiece 2 on his ear.
    [0018] The parts 5, 6, 7 of the diffusion chamber 40 will henceforth be presented independently. The upstream part 5 The upstream part 5 advantageously makes it possible to generate a resonance in the diffusion chamber 40 in order to mechanically shift the sound frequencies in order to create a spatiality of the sounds. Subsequently, the upstream portion 5 will also be designated resonance chamber 5.
    [0019] Preferably, the upstream portion 5 extends in a plane orthogonal to the input axis X at the inlet opening 41. For this purpose, with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3, the upstream portion 5 comprises a first vibration wall 51 facing the inlet opening 41 and extending orthogonally to the input axis X. Similarly, the upstream portion 5 comprises a second vibration wall 52 which is substantially parallel at the first vibration wall 51. As illustrated in FIG. 2, the inlet opening 41 is formed in the second vibration wall 52 so that the sound waves emanating from the sound emission source come into contact with each other. with the first vibration wall 51 to then be guided upstream downstream between the vibration walls 51, 52. Still referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, the vibration walls 51, 52 are connected laterally by an inner side wall 53 and an outer side wall 54. The paros Is of vibration 51, 52 can be curved while remaining parallel to each other in order to fit the shape of the listener's skull while ensuring optimal vibration.
    [0020] Referring to Figures 2 and 3, the upstream portion 5 of the diffusion chamber 40 has a decreasing cross section from upstream to downstream so as to allow compression of sounds. Preferably, the upstream portion 5 is curved at its downstream end so as to allow its mounting to an ear 1 as previously described. Preferably, the upstream portion 5 is formed of a rigid material of the PVC type in order to allow an optimal vibration of the vibration walls 51, 52 but it goes without saying that other materials could also be suitable.
    [0021] Preferably, the upstream portion 5 has a length of between 3 and 5 cm and an upstream width of between 10 and 15 mm and a downstream width of between 3 and 5 mm. Advantageously, the upstream width is adapted to the width of the sound emission source, that is to say, the loudspeaker. It goes without saying that other dimensions could also include. More preferably, the thickness of the upstream portion 5 is of the order of 1-3 mm so that a source of sound emission can vibrate the first vibration wall optimally. The intermediate portion 6 advantageously allows the compressed sound to be guided between the upstream part 5 and the downstream part 7. With reference to FIGS. 2 and 3, the intermediate part 6 of the diffusion enclosure 40 has a substantially constant cross section of the upstream to downstream and is curved. The downstream part 7 The downstream part 7 advantageously allows the compressed sound of the intermediate part 6 to be guided towards the duct of the lug 7. For this purpose, the downstream part 7 is bent in such a way as to facilitate its insertion into the duct of the duct. 1 ear after its passage around the flag of the ear 1. With reference to Figures 2 and 3, the intermediate portion 6 of the diffusion chamber 40 has a substantially constant cross section from upstream to downstream. Optionally, the downstream end of the downstream portion 7 may be provided with a tip 9 (Figure 4) to improve the interaction between the sound transmission device 4 and the ear 1 of the listener. Preferably, said tip 9 is made of elastomeric material. In another aspect, the diffusion chamber 40 is configured to maintain the output aperture of the transmission device in the entrance of the conch so as to allow the listener to listen to the external sounds as taught by the speaker. patent application FR2915049. Lower blind chamber 8 In addition to the diffusion enclosure 40, the sound transmission device 4 comprises a blind bottom chamber 8 which extends in the extension of the upstream part 5 of the diffusion enclosure 40. In other words, the lower blind chamber 8 is diametrically opposed to the diffusion chamber 40 with respect to the input opening axis 41 as illustrated in FIG. 2. Preferably, the diffusion chamber 40 and the blind lower chamber 8 are made from the same material, in particular PVC.
    [0022] The lower blind chamber 8 is preferably hollow, that is to say, provided with a cavity. Also, the lower blind chamber 8 guides the sounds in its cavity before guiding them in the diffusion chamber 40 before escaping at the outlet opening 42. The sound guidance in the blind lower chamber 8 makes it possible to increase the spacing of the frequencies of the sound (treble, midrange and bass) and thus reinforce the spatiality of the sounds perceived by the user. Such a lower chamber 8 is thus particularly advantageous.
    [0023] In a similar manner to the resonance chamber 5, the lower chamber 8 has a first vibration wall 81 extending in the extension of the first vibration wall 51 of the resonance chamber 5 and a second vibration wall 82 extending in the extension of the second vibration wall 52 of the resonance chamber 5.
    [0024] The length of the lower chamber 8 is set so that the superposition of the sounds circulating directly in the diffusion chamber 40 (direct sounds) and those circulating indirectly after reflection in the bottom of the lower chamber 8 (indirect sounds) is not noticeable. by the human ear. Preferably, the length of the lower chamber 8 is less than 30 mm to avoid an unpleasant overlay of direct and indirect sounds and is greater than 10 mm so as to generate a spatiality perceptible by the human ear. In practice, the length of the lower chamber 8 is equal to about 20% of the length of the resonance chamber, that is to say, the length of the downstream part 5 of the diffusion enclosure 40. preferred, the walls of the lower chamber 8, in particular its side walls, are thickened compared to the walls of the diffusion chamber 40 so as to favor the medium and low components of the sounds circulating in the lower chamber 8. As a For example, the thickness of the side walls of the lower chamber 8 are of the order of 2-4 mm. The lower blind chamber 8 is optional and it goes without saying that the sound transmission device 4 may not include such a blind lower chamber 35 8.
    [0025] Advantageously, when the sound transmission device 4 has no lower chamber 8, the latter may be provided with a wedging member adapted to be placed near the lobe of the ear 1 in order to stabilize the earphone 2 on the ear 1. Thanks to the sound transmission device 4 according to the invention, the noise emissions cause a vibration of the first vibration wall 51 of the resonance chamber 5, which causes an offset of the "ordered" sounds. from the input aperture 41. This results for the listener a sensation of auditory aperture, that is, an increase in the gap between the "right" and "left" parts of a music stereo while listening. In addition, sensory perceptions are increased. The listener advantageously does not need to increase the volume to enjoy a better immersion.
    [0026] A second embodiment of the invention is described with reference to FIGS. 4 to 6. The references used to describe the elements of structure or function identical, equivalent or similar to those of the elements of FIGS. 2 and 3 are the same, to simplify the description. Moreover, the entire description of the embodiment of Figures 2 and 3 is not repeated, this description applies to the elements of Figures 4 to 6 when there are no incompatibilities. Only notable differences, structural and functional, are described. According to a second embodiment of a sound transmission device 4 'according to the invention, with reference to FIGS. 4 to 6, the sound transmission device 4' comprises a sounding part 10 mounted in the outer lateral edge 54 of the upstream portion 5 of the diffusion enclosure 40 and extending into the cavity of the diffusion enclosure 40. In other words, the sounding part 10 comprises a fixing edge 10A and a free edge 10B as illustrated in figure 4.
    [0027] In this example, the harmony piece 10 extends from the outer lateral edge 54 towards the inner lateral edge 53 of the upstream part 5 as illustrated in FIG. 4. The fastening edge 10A of the sounding piece 10 is sealingly secured in the outer lateral edge 54 to avoid any loss of power of the transmitted sounds. Preferably, the free end of the sounding piece 10 extends away from the inner side edge in order to form a bottleneck of sounds to adapt the component of the midrange sounds. The sounds thus circulate above, below and at the free end of the piece of harmony 10 to be modified by said piece of harmony 10. With reference to FIG. 5, the piece of harmony 10 presents itself in the form of a flat part which extends between the first vibration wall 51 and the second vibration wall 52 in order to influence the sounds coming from the inlet opening 41. The harmony part 10 preferably extends parallel to the vibration walls 51, 52. The harmony piece 10 makes it possible, in the manner of a harmony bar of a violin, to equalize the components of the sounds of the diffusion chamber 40. Thus, the vibrations coming from the vibration walls 51, 52 of the upstream part 5 are smoothed by the harmony part 10. In other words, the harmony part 10 fulfills an equalizer function for the sounds of the part upstream 5. The harmony piece 10 is preferably made of wood, plastic or material c omposite. The nature of the material forming the sounding part 10 results from a compromise between its resonance properties and its absorption properties. Alternatively, the sound component 10 may be material from the upstream portion of the diffusion chamber 40. Such an alternative can reduce the cost of the sound transmission device 4 ', no assembly step of the piece of harmony 10 is no longer necessary. Preferably, again with reference to FIGS. 4 to 6, the sound transmission device 4 'comprises an upper core 11 and a lower core 12 which are respectively accommodated in the resonance chamber 5 and in the lower blind chamber 8. The upper core 11 is arranged to exert a mechanical tension between the vibration walls 51, 52 in order to improve their vibratory characteristics in the manner of a violin core. In other words, the upper core 11 makes it possible to mechanically connect the first vibration wall 51 with the second vibration wall 52 so that any vibration of the first vibration wall 51 is communicated to the second vibration wall 52. lower 12 makes it possible to fulfill the same function for the vibration walls 81, 82 of the lower chamber 8.
    [0028] As illustrated in FIG. 4, the upper core 11 is mounted in the diffusion enclosure 40 near the center of the upstream portion 5. Similarly, the lower core 12 is mounted in the lower blind chamber 8 in the vicinity from its center.
    [0029] Preferably, when an upper core 11 is used with a sound piece 10 in a resonance chamber 5, the sounding part 10 comprises an upstream portion of smaller section so as to allow the introduction of the upper core 11 in the diffusion chamber 40 near the sounding part 10 as shown in Figure 4, the upper core 11 and the sound part 10 not being in contact. In this example of implementation, each core 11, 12 is in the form of an element extending orthogonally to the vibration walls 51, 52, 81, 82, that is to say substantially parallel to the axis X. Each core 11, 12 furthermore has a length slightly greater than that of the thickness of the chambers 5, 8 in which they are housed, preferably, of the order of 10%. In other words, each web 11, 12 is mounted prestressing in the chambers 5, 8 in order to tension the vibration walls 51, 52, 81, 82 in the manner of a drum.
    [0030] It goes without saying that the sound transmission device 4 'could comprise only a single core 11, 12. Similarly, the sound transmission device 4' could comprise one or more souls 11, 12 without a sounding piece 10. The cores 11, 12 make it possible to transmit the vibrations of the first vibration walls 51, 81 to the second vibration walls 52, 82 mechanically. The vibration of several vibration walls 51, 52, 81, 82 of a chamber 5, 8 makes it possible to increase the offset of the frequencies of the sounds and thus to increase the spatiality.
    [0031] Souls 11, 12 allow to act on the dynamics of sounds by increasing the gap between weak sounds and loud sounds so as to offer a striking proximity effect. For example, on certain acoustic music, the listener has the feeling that the sounds are played in front of him, which reinforces the impression of immersion.
    [0032] According to a third embodiment of a sound transmission device 4 "according to the invention, with reference to FIGS. 7 to 9, the blind lower chamber 8 comprises an adjustable movable wall 13 adapted to modify the volume of the blind lower chamber 8. For this purpose, the sound transmission device 4 "comprises a control member 14 adapted to move in translation said movable wall 13 in the lower blind chamber 8. In this embodiment, the control member 14 is in the form of a rotary wheel which is connected by a rack connection to the adjustable movable wall 13 but it goes without saying that the connection could be different. In particular, the control member could be in the form of a button secured to the movable wall 13 and adapted to translate in a groove of the lower chamber 8. The displacement stroke of the movable wall 13 is 10-15 mm order in this example of implementation.
    [0033] In this embodiment, the listener can adjust for each earphone the spatiality of the sound he wants by acting on the control member 14 and thus move the movable wall 13.
    [0034] In the present case, manipulation of the control member 14 and the mobile wall 13 makes it possible to act on the frequency components of the sounds in order to reach the "point of auditory satisfaction" known to those skilled in the art under the English designation "sweet spot", such a point of auditory satisfaction being specific to each listener.
    [0035] With a setting adapted to each ear of the listener, listening is more comfortable and natural. In particular, there is an enrichment of the bass giving more depth to the sounds and an increased presence in the mediums providing a better intelligibility to the whole of the sound rendering.35 Preferably, with reference to FIG. 8, the transmission device 4 "sound includes a damping layer 99, preferably of elastomer, fixed on the outer face of the first vibration wall 51 so as to attenuate the vibrations of the lower components of the sounds. Damping device 99 can be applied to any embodiment of sound transmission device according to the invention Example of implementation As an example, a user equips each of his ears with a headphone 2 according to the invention. invention suspending it to its transmission device sounds 4 whose shape is curved as shown in Figure 2. The user activates his music player that emits sounds via his loudspeaker ur 3 in the inlet opening 41 to vibrate the first vibration walls 51, 81 which extend orthogonally to the input axis X facing the inlet opening 41. With the souls 11 , 12, the second vibration walls 52, 82 also vibrate synchronously, which increases the offset between the frequencies of the sounds from the speaker 3 and therefore spatiality.
    [0036] Some vibrating sounds are conducted directly to the outlet opening 42 while others are conducted indirectly after having circulated in the lower blind chamber 8. Advantageously, the user adjusts the depth of the blind chamber 8 in order to adapt the spatiality and dynamics of sounds.
    [0037] The vibrating sounds, direct or indirect, are then synthesized together by the piece of harmony 10 which smooths the sounds and improve the auditory perception. The synthesized sounds are then driven by the intermediate part 6 and the downstream part 7 to increase their spatiality before being sent into the ear of the user via the outlet opening 42. Unlike the prior art in which sounds are emitted very close to the ear, the sounds are emitted at a distance from the ear in order to undergo a mechanical treatment that increases the spatiality of the sounds and the immersion of the listener. Thanks to the invention, by synergy of its various components, one obtains a dynamic, an equalization and a spatiality of the improved sounds.
    [0038] The headphones according to the invention allow optimal listening and natural.
