1. A bone conduction-based clamping device, wherein the bone conduction-based clamping device comprises a handle, a clamping structure provided on one side of the handle, and a sound generating processor provided inside the handle; wherein
the sound generating processor comprises a controller and a sound generating member;
the controller is configured to drive the sound generating member to generate a vibration signal when the controller determines that food clamped by the clamping structure enters a mouth cavity, and transmit the vibration signal to an auditory system of a user by the food and/or the clamping structure when the food is in contact with an inside of the mouth cavity and/or teeth;
wherein the controller is further configured to stop driving the sound generating member and determine a duration for which a whole or a part of the clamping structure is held in the mouth cavity, when the controller determines that the clamping structure does not clamp the food and the whole or the part of the clamping structure enters the mouth cavity;
the controller is further configured to re-drive the sound generating member to generate the vibration signal, when the controller determines that the duration is greater than a preset duration threshold.
