Abstract
Die vorgeschlagene Erfindung gehört zu den Ohrhörern, insbesondere zu den kabellosen Ohrhörern.
Hauptanspruch: Ohrhörer, ein bestimmter Teil welcher im äußeren Gehörgang platziert werden soll, der mit einem Tonwiedergabegerät verbunden ist und einen Geber hat, wobei das Tonwiedergabegerät eine Einrichtung hat, die nach Daten des besagten Gebers feststellen kann, ob der besagte bestimmte Teil des Ohrhörers im äußeren Gehörgang platziert wird, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass
das besagte Geber als einen Temperaturgeber ausgeführt ist, der sich auf der Oberfläche des besagten Teils des Ohrhörers befindet
die besagte Einrichtung die vom Temperaturgeber gemessene Temperatur mit dem erlaubten Temperaturinterwall vergleicht und falls die gemessene Temperatur in dem erlaubten Temperaturinterwall liegt, der Ohrhörer als der im äußeren Gehörgang platzierter erkennt.
The proposed invention belongs to the earphones, in particular to the wireless earphones.
Main claim: earphones, a specific part which is to be placed in the external auditory canal, which is connected to a sound reproduction device and has a transmitter, the sound reproduction device having a device which can determine, according to data from said transmitter, whether said specific part of the earphone is in outer ear canal is placed, characterized in that
said transmitter is designed as a temperature transmitter located on the surface of said part of the earphone
the said device compares the temperature measured by the temperature sensor with the permitted temperature interval and, if the measured temperature lies within the permitted temperature interval, the earphone recognizes that it is placed in the external auditory canal.
Description
Die vorgeschlagene Erfindung gehört zu den Ohrhörern, die eine Einrichtung haben, welche prüft, ob der Ohrhörer sich in einer Arbeitsposition befindet.The proposed invention belongs to the earphones that have a device that checks whether the earphone is in a working position.
Es ist ein Ohrhörer mit Tonwiedergabegerät bekannt.
wobei der Ohrhörer mit dem Tonwiedergabegerät verbunden ist, und der Ohrhörer aufweist
- - einen bestimmten Teil, welcher im äußeren Gehörgang platziert ist und mit der Haut des Benutzers in Kontakt stehen soll
- - mehrere Temperaturgeber, wobei einige der Temperaturgeber sich auf der Oberfläche des bestimmten Teils des Ohrhörers befinden,
- - und einen zusätzlichen Temperaturgeber, die sich nicht an der Oberfläche des bestimmten Teils des Ohrhörers befindet, sondern an einer Stelle, wo ein Kontakt mit der Haut des Benutzers nicht stattfinden soll,
- - das Tonwiedergabegerät eine Einrichtung hat, die von diesen Temperaturgebern gemessenen Temperaturen mit einem erlaubten Temperaturinterwall vergleicht,
- - und feststellt, dass der bestimmte Teil des Ohrhörers im äußeren Gehörgang platziert ist, wenn mindestens eine der gemessenen Temperaturen an der Oberfläche des bestimmten Teils des erlaubten Temperaturinterwalls liegt und der Wert des zusätzlichen Temperaturgebers außerhalb des erlaubten Temperaturinterwalls liegt, (siehe
US 2014/0 129 010 A1 US 2009/0 003 641 A1
wherein the earphone is connected to the sound reproducing device, and the earphone has
- - a specific part which is placed in the external auditory canal and is intended to be in contact with the skin of the user
- - multiple temperature sensors, some of which are located on the surface of the specific part of the earphone,
- - and an additional temperature sensor, which is not located on the surface of the specific part of the earphone, but in a place where contact with the user's skin should not take place,
- - the sound reproduction device has a device that compares the temperatures measured by these temperature sensors with a permitted temperature interval,
- - and determines that the specific part of the earphone is placed in the external auditory canal if at least one of the measured temperatures is on the surface of the specific part of the permitted temperature range and the value of the additional temperature sensor is outside the permitted temperature range (see
US 2014/0 129 010 A1 US 2009/0 003 641 A1
Der bekannte Ohrhörer hat ein Nachteil, eine relativ geringe Präzision. Das Temperaturintervall, mit welcher die gemessenen Temperaturen vergleichen werden sollen und der Temperatur im äußeren Gehörgang des Benutzers entsprechen soll, soll möglichst präzis eingegeben werden. Einerseits kann diese Temperatur für verschiedene Menschen wesentlich verschieden sein. Nach Daten der medizinischen Literatur befindet sich eine normale Menschliche Temperatur bei verschiedenen Menschen zwischen 35,4°C und 37,2°C. Dem Anmelder ist aber sein Kommilitone bekannt, der eine normale Temperatur 37,4°C hat, was ihm erlaubte, ständig Sportunterricht zu schwänzen. Beim intensiven Sporttreiben kann Körpertemperatur bis auf 39°C und mehr erhöhen. Bei den Menschen mit einer Erkältung, die im Bett liegen und ihre Langweile mit Musik über Ohrhörer vertreiben, kann Körpertemperatur einige Tage 38° und mehr betragen. Die Temperatur von anderen Körperteilen eines Menschen kann um 1° bis 2° kleiner sein. Folglich falls ein Ohrhörer sich unter seiner Bettdecke befindet, kann seine Temperatur in dem Temperaturintervall von „üblichen“ Körpertemperaturen sein. Das kann zu einigen Fehlfunktionieren führen.The known earphone has a disadvantage, a relatively low precision. The temperature interval with which the measured temperatures are to be compared and to correspond to the temperature in the user's external auditory canal should be entered as precisely as possible. On the one hand, this temperature can be significantly different for different people. According to data in the medical literature, a normal human temperature in various people is between 35.4 ° C and 37.2 ° C. However, the applicant is aware of his fellow student, who has a normal temperature of 37.4 ° C, which allowed him to constantly skip physical education. During intense exercise, body temperature can increase to 39 ° C and more. For people with a cold who are in bed and dispel their boredom with music through earphones, body temperature can be 38 ° and more for a few days. The temperature of other parts of the human body can be 1 ° to 2 ° lower. Thus, if an earphone is under its covers, its temperature can be in the temperature range of "usual" body temperatures. This can lead to some malfunctions.
Der Erfinder ist der Meinung, dass die Präzision der Eingabe des erlaubten Temperaturintervalls erhöht werden soll, das erlaubte Temperaturintervall an einen konkreten Benutzer angepasst werden soll. Das ist mittels Einführung einer Einrichtung, eines Eingabeblocks, mittels welcher man das erlaubte Temperaturintervall für einen konkreten Benutzer eingeben kann. Technisch kann man eine solche Einrichtung zum Beispiel als ein Teil des Programmes des Smartphones, an dem der Ohrhörer eingeschaltet ist, ausführen.The inventor is of the opinion that the precision of the input of the permitted temperature interval should be increased and the permitted temperature interval should be adapted to a specific user. This is by introducing a device, an input block, by means of which one can enter the permitted temperature interval for a specific user. Technically, such a device can be implemented, for example, as part of the program of the smartphone on which the earphone is switched on.
Auf der Zeichnung ist ein Paar vorgeschlagenen Ohrhörer, die mit einem Smartphone verbunden sind, schematisch abgebildet.In the drawing, a pair of proposed earphones connected to a smartphone is shown schematically.
