A sliding cavity extending along the first head strip is provided on an end thereof. Limiting slots are provided at lateral intervals of the sliding cavity. An elastic piece is connected with the second head strip having connecting and bending portions in an end notch of the second head strip. The bending, portion is inserted into the sliding cavity and clamped into a limiting slot. A through hole extending along the bracket is provided on a sidewall close to the limiting slot. A button in the bracket has a pressing portion to be inserted into the through hole and connected to a baffle plate, with a fixed connection structure between the baffle plate and the second head strip. ## Claims ### Claim 1 An adjustable head-mounted structure, comprising an upper sheath, a groove-shaped bracket and a lower sheath which are integrated together, wherein the adjustable head-mounted structure further comprises: a first head strip and a second head strip, wherein one end of each of the first head strip and the second head strip is respectively arranged in the groove-shaped bracket; the ends of the first head strip and the second head strip are arranged in an overlapped and staggered manner; the first head strip is fixedly connected with the groove-shaped bracket; a sliding cavity extending in a length direction of the first head strip is provided at the end of the first head strip; a plurality of limiting slots are provided at intervals at a lateral side of the sliding cavity extending in the length direction of the sliding cavity, and a notch is provided at the end of the second head strip; an elastic piece fixedly connected with the second head strip, wherein the elastic piece comprises a connecting portion and a bending portion which is connected with the connecting portion and located in the notch; the bending portion is inserted into the sliding cavity and clamped into one of the limiting slots; an elongated through hole extending in the length direction of the groove-shaped bracket provided on a sidewall of the groove-shaped bracket which is close to the limiting slot; and a button provided in the groove-shaped bracket and connected with the bending portion, wherein the button comprises a pressing portion passing through the elongated through hole and a baffle plate connected with the pressing portion, and a fixed connection structure is provided between the baffle plate and the second head strip. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The adjustable head-mounted structure according to claim 1, wherein the bending portion is U-shaped, and a connecting hole is provided on a sidewall of the bending portion which is close to the limiting slot;
