Abstract

The present invention provides a waterproof cover structure with an array of microtubes, and the waterproof cover structure includes an elastic cover; and an arrayed microtube unit watertight combined within a second opening of the elastic cover and having multiple microtubes formed in the arrayed microtube unit. Such waterproof cover structure with an array of microtubes not just covers an earphone and complies with the comfortable wearing requirements only, but also has the effects of providing a waterproof function by the formation of the arrayed microtube unit, balancing the pressure, temperature and humidity of internal and external auditory canals, and preventing sound distortion.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A waterproof cover structure with an array of microtubes, comprising:
 an elastic cover, having a first opening and a second opening; and   an arrayed microtube unit, watertightly combined into the second opening, and having a first distal portion and a second distal portion, and the arrayed microtube unit having a plurality of microtubes formed therein, and each of the microtubes penetrating through the first distal portion and the second distal portion, and each of the microtubes having a diameter that prevent water molecules from passing through the microtubes.   
     
     
         2 . The waterproof cover structure of  claim 1 , wherein the elastic cover is made of a material selected from the group consisting of rubber, silicone, plastic, waterproof mesh and polymer. 
     
     
         3 . The waterproof cover structure of  claim 1 , wherein the arrayed microtube unit is integrally formed in the second opening. 
     
     
         4 . The waterproof cover structure of  claim 1 , wherein the arrayed microtube unit is embedded into the second opening. 
     
     
         5 . The waterproof cover structure of  claim 1 , wherein the first opening is greater than the second opening, and the second opening is a tubular structure. 
     
     
         6 . The waterproof cover structure of  claim 5 , wherein the second opening is extended to form a cup, and the tubular structure is formed at the center position of the cup. 
     
     
         7 . The waterproof cover structure of  claim 1 , wherein the elastic cover is a tube, and the second opening is extended to form a cup, and the tube is formed at the center position of the cup. 
     
     
         8 . The waterproof cover structure of  claim 1 , wherein the microtube has at least one bump, at least one flange or at least one rim formed therein. 
     
     
         9 . The waterproof cover structure of  claim 1 , wherein the microtube has a diameter falling within a range from 0.1 mm to 0.6 mm. 
     
     
         10 . The waterproof cover structure of  claim 1 , wherein the microtube has a length falling within a range from 1 mm to 5 mm.
