Benefits of technology
"The present disclosure provides methods, apparatus, instruments, and devices for stabilizing different types of ear-mounted devices. The stabilizing device includes a retainer, an earpiece, and a coupling member that can be attached to various ear-mounted devices. The retainer is adjustable and can be customized to fit different users' heads. The ear-mounted device can be eyeglasses or other devices that are worn on the user's head. The technical effects of this invention include improved stability and comfort for users wearing ear-mounted devices, making them more suitable for various activities such as sports or music performances."
Problems solved by technology
However, ear-mounted devices often fail to remain in the desired position for the user.
Activities such as walking or running increase the likelihood of ear-mounted devices failing to remain in the desired position for the user.
Existing stabilizers for ear-mounted devices fail to possess all of the desired characteristics of a stabilizing device.

A stabilizing device includes a retainer, an earpiece coupled to a first end of the retainer, and a coupling member secured to a second end of the retainer. The retainer is configured for extending around the back of the head of a user. The earpiece is configured for looping around the ear of a user. The coupling member is configured for coupling to a plurality of different types of ear-mounted devices. The retainer may include first and second slidably adjustable pieces, first and second interlocking extenders, or a unitary piece.
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION1. Field of the InventionThe present invention relates to a stabilizing device, and more particularly, to a device that effectively and easily stabilizes a plurality of different types of ear-mounted devices.2. Related ArtMany different types of ear-mounted devices such as, for example, earphones, ear buds, Bluetooth® earpieces, and the like are worn by users in conjunction with, for example, cellular phones, CD players, MP3 players and various other electronic devices. A given ear-mounted device may be pressed into the user's ear, or may, for example, be positioned just outside the user's ear. However, ear-mounted devices often fail to remain in the desired position for the user. Activities such as walking or running increase the likelihood of ear-mounted devices failing to remain in the desired position for the user.Existing stabilizers for ear-mounted devices fail to possess all of the desired characteristics of a stabilizing device. The desired charact...
