Embodiment Construction

[0033] Headphones refer to devices that fit around, on, or in the ears and radiate sound energy into the ear canal. Headphones are sometimes called earphones, earpieces, headsets, earbuds, or sports headphones, and can be wired or wireless. Headphones include acoustic drivers for converting audio signals into sound energy. Acoustic drivers can be housed in the earcups. While some of the figures and descriptions below show a single headset, the headset may be a single stand-alone unit or one of a pair of headsets (each comprising a corresponding acoustic driver and ear cups), One headset for each ear. A headset may be mechanically connected to another headset, for example by a headband and / or by leads that conduct audio signals to an acoustic driver in the headset. Headphones may include components for wirelessly receiving audio signals. Headphones may include components of an active noise reduction (ANR) system. Headphones can also include other features, such as micropho...

Abstract

A headphone with a headband and at least one earcup. The at least one earcup is movably coupled to the headband by a joint that is structured to allow rotation of the earcup relative to the headband about two mutually perpendicular axes, and translation along one of these axes.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to a headset. Background technique [0002] Headphones have one or two ear cups. To be adjustable to comfortably fit most heads, the ear cups should be able to rotate about a vertical axis and at least one axis orthogonal to the vertical axis. The ear cups should also be able to translate along a vertical axis. Many headphones use a yoke to attach the earcups to the headband to help with the necessary rotation, but the yoke is relatively large and not integral to the headband design. There is a need for an earcup to headband joint that provides rotation about two axes and translation along one axis while better integrating into the headband design. Contents of the invention [0003] A headphone connector configured to allow each earcup to rotate about two mutually perpendicular axes and to translate along one of these axes relative to the headband. The joints can be combined with parts of the headband and parts of t...
