Personal Audio Set With Adjustable Force Mechanisms
Alexander S. Danielson - Vancouver WA, US Jason Lin - Washougal WA, US Neil O'Connell - Portland OR, US
Assignee:
Logitech Europe S.A. - Morges
International Classification:
H04R 25/00
US Classification:
381374, 381377
Abstract:
A personal audio device including a flexible headband is disclosed. The flexible headband includes a left and right headband portion. The headband has a longitudinal centerline which occupies a substantially single plane. The personal audio device also includes a left earphone, which is secured to a first end of the left headband portion, and a right earphone, which is secured to a first end of the right headband portion. A connector portion connects a second end of the left headband portion with a second end of the right headband portion. The connector portion is linearly adjustable, which enables a distance between the left headband portion and right headband portion to be variable. A change in the distance causes an inversely proportional change in bent compression force applied by a left earphone and applied by the right earphone.

A charging stand is provided including a body having a first surface, and a bump having a top region and one or more sides. The one or more sides extend between the first surface and the top region. The charging stand further includes one or more base contact pins that are coupled to the body. Each base contact pin has an exposed end disposed at a first distance in a first direction from the first surface. The charging stand further includes a bump contact pin extending from the top region of the bump. The bump contact pin has an exposed end disposed a second distance in the first direction from the first surface, the second distance is greater than the first distance, and the first direction is perpendicular to the first surface.

Abstract:
Embodiments of the disclosure provided herein are configured to desirably distribute and thus withstand forces that are applied to an audio device assembly during regular use. The configurations discussed herein can be used to prevent the various device related components from becoming damaged during use. The application of these forces can cause immediate failure of the electrical connections in extreme cases, or more typically cause eventual failure of the electrical connections and device due to repetitive application of the applied force. Therefore, it is desirable to minimize the stress applied to the various electrical connection points during use, such as the electrical connection points.
