Abstract
The present disclosure provides an earphone, comprising a sound production component and an ear hook configured to place the sound production component near an ear canal but not blocking an ear canal opening. An inner contour of a projection of the ear hook on a user's sagittal plane includes a first curve having an extremum point in a first direction. The first direction is perpendicular to a long-axis direction of a projection of the sound production component. The extremum point is located behind a projection point of an upper vertex of the ear hook on the sagittal plane. The upper vertex is a highest point of an inner contour of the ear hook along the user's vertical-axis. A housing of the sound production component and a first portion of the ear hook clamp the user's auricle and provide a clamping force of 0.03 N-1 N to the auricle.
