Abstract:
A cradle includes a main body having a seating portion in which an earbud is seated, a folder body capable of being converted between a closed state and an opened state of the seating portion, and a hinge portion configured to couple the folder body to the main body, wherein the hinge portion includes a first hinge coupled to the main body, a second hinge coupled to the folder body, a shaft extending through the first hinge and the second hinge, a first magnet coupled to the first hinge, and a second magnet coupled to the second hinge or to the folder body, and wherein the first magnet and the second magnet maintain a repulsive force therebetween while the folder body is converted into the opened state from the closed state. The semi-automatic opening structure of the cradle is simplified so as to simplify the manufacturing process and reduce manufacturing costs.
