Definitions
- the present invention relates to headphones according to the preamble of claim 1.
- an infrared headphone which consists of two playback transducers connected to one another via a chin guard, an electrical circuit that receives infrared signals and converts them into audio signals, and two microphones with downstream microphone amplifiers.
- the circuit of this infrared headphone is such that the playback transducers can be supplied with the signals derived from the infrared circuit or the microphone amplifiers either individually or in combination.
- the microphones are arranged at a distance from one another on the chin guard in such a way that they are symmetrical to the media plane of the head of a user, the signals derived from the microphones being supplied in phase opposition to the other microphone amplifier in the same ratio.
- infrared headphones are usually in operative connection with a transmitter that converts the emitted sound signals, for example from a television or a hi-fi system, into invisible infrared rays, and emits them into the room where they are received by the infrared headphones which can provide wireless infrared sound transmission. It makes sense that such a transmitter is both a charging station for the infrared receiver and for at least one a battery insert that is used to charge the infrared headphones when charged.
- WO 95/35011 A discloses an infrared headphone designed as a chin guard receiver.
- These infrared headphones essentially consist of a basic housing, two mounting brackets, each with a small loudspeaker arranged at the end.
- the two mounting brackets are mounted in the basic housing, each of which can be expanded in connection with a spring element acting in the area of the bearing, with which a pleasant ear attachment of the small loudspeakers can be achieved via these spring elements.
- the start-up and shutdown of these headphones is carried out by means of a manually operated switch.
- GB 2 304 488 A and FR 2 280 283 A also disclose cable-free headphones, in which the expandable temple ends designed as headband also enable flexible ear attachment and in which an on / off switch is integrated, the on / off of which Actuation is dependent on the stirrup, making manual operation of the switch unnecessary.
- the invention seeks to remedy this.
- the invention is based on the object of taking the measures for a headphone of the type mentioned at the outset which are capable of eliminating the above-mentioned disadvantages by correcting any change in the head position when the headphones are worn by means of a dispositive becomes.
- the small speakers or, in the case of conventional headphones, the surrounding attachment parts to the ear cups be further developed so that the relevant parts in the area of the auditory canal are designed to be easily rotatable and that they can adapt to the respective head and body posture of the user, or they depending on how the headband is worn Users can adjust without losing in the least the original position in the ear canal or in terms of the enclosure of the ear.
- the main advantage of the invention can be seen in the fact that this development can be implemented for any type of small loudspeaker, and that it achieves the highest possible level of sound transmission quality.
- the further development according to the invention ensures that the wearing comfort can be maximized, which can only increase the acceptance for such systems, namely chin strap receivers, headphones, etc., whether wired or wireless, the wireless variant being based on infrared, Radio frequency, etc., can be designed.
- FIG. 5 shows a small loudspeaker according to FIG. 3 with a rotatable one
- FIG. 6 shows a rotatable coupling of the small loudspeaker according to FIG. 4 in a side view
- Fig. 7 shows the basic view of the ear-side part of the small speaker
- FIG. 8 shows the rotatable coupling of the small loudspeaker according to FIG. 4 in
- the chin guard receiver 100 is shown in use to users. Such a chin guard receiver 100 is described in detail in WO 00/08894, this publication forming an integral part of the present description. In summary it can be stated here that this chin guard receiver 100 is a device which is used to receive wireless signals, such as infrared or radio signals, and is designed to convert them into a sound transmission in the listening area.
- This chin guard receiver 100 consists of a basic housing 101, two mounting brackets 102, 103 with small loudspeakers 300, 400 arranged at the ends.
- the two mounting brackets 102, 103 are mounted in the basic housing 101 and can be elastically expanded in at least one plane.
- brackets 102, 103 are operatively connected with at least one switch housed in the lever effective range of this level, in such a way that this switch switches on the receiver circuit in the case of a specific load-dependent spreading position of the carrying brackets 102, 103, with which an advantageous automatic switching on and off of the receiver depending on the wearing of the chin guard receiver. Furthermore, there is a sound management, which automatically intervenes in terms of circuitry, depending on the sound transmission quality that arises in the case of interfering reception, in such a way that either an improvement in the sound quality is acted on, or if the transmission falls below a certain sound quality, it automatically switches off the transmission and this transmission Restores the minimum requirements for the tone quality automatically.
- the circuit-based sound management also means that a switch from mono to stereo reception or vice versa can be activated at any time.
- the features described here can of course also be transferred to conventional headphones with built-in receivers. All of the aforementioned functions relating to sound management are to be understood cumulatively and alternatively among themselves.
- FIG. 2 shows a hearing receiver 200 which is designed as a stethosclip, in which case the sound transmission can also be accomplished by means of a cable.
- the technology is concerned, reference is essentially made to the explanations under FIG. 1.
- FIG. 3 shows the embodiment of a small loudspeaker 300, which is designed in such a way that it closes the ear canal like a stopper or plug.
- FIG. 4 shows the embodiment of a lenticular loudspeaker body (405) which is guided parallel or quasi-parallel to the auditory canal, accordingly only partially closes the auditory canal and thus leaves it open.
- a small loudspeaker 300 essentially consists of a base body 301, which is provided on the ear side with acoustic sound openings 307 and on the rear side with further acoustic openings 302.
- the support bracket 303 which is only partially visible here, is connected to the base body 301.
- the small loudspeaker 300 On the ear side, the small loudspeaker 300 has a plug-shaped loudspeaker body 305 which closes off the ear canal.
- a coupling part 308 with a connected sleeve 309 is arranged between the base body 301 and the loudspeaker body 305 on the ear side, the connection of the latter parts 308 and 309 with respect to the base body 301 and speaker body 305 being designed in such a way that a free rotation 306 of one between the latter 305 and the base body 301 certain angle is possible.
- any change in the user's head position can be absorbed in such a way that the loudspeaker bodies 305 of the respective small loudspeaker 300, which are fixed in position in the ear canal, are not exposed to any rotational pressure due to their rotatability relative to the base body 301, as a result of which the carrying comfort is maximized, coupled with the highest degree of sound transmission quality is achieved because the latter effect eliminates a position-related acoustic changes in the sound transmission.
- Fig. 5 shows in a sectional plane the structure of such a small speaker according to Figs. 3a-3c.
- the coupling part 308 takes over the connection between the base body 301 and the loudspeaker body 305, which in turn is supplemented with a bush 309, which on the one hand takes over the mounting of the loudspeaker 310, and on the other hand as a stop and rotation lock 314 of the latching parts belonging to the coupling 308 313.
- the free rotatability of the loudspeaker body 305 relative to the base body 301 results from the fact that the coupling part 308 is firmly connected to the base body 301, and the resilient latching parts 313 arranged on the opposite side are pushed into the bush 309, where they are then locked with barbs , whereby these detents determine the predetermined angle of rotation, which always leaves sufficient scope, so that even unusual changes in head posture can always be absorbed by the user.
- the here through the The latching technique described, proposed rotatability between base body 301 and loudspeaker body 305 indicates a simple construction which can be used without restriction and in any case allows all body and head postures to be absorbed.
- Both the bush 309 and the coupling part 308 have a bore 312 through which the electrical connection line 311 can be passed to the loudspeaker 310.
- FIGS. 4a-4c show the structural design of the small loudspeaker 400 according to FIGS. 4a-4c, the acoustic openings 402 and the acoustic sound openings 407 being arranged in the large areas of the lens-shaped loudspeaker body 405 here.
- the main difference between this small speaker 400 and the previous 300 is that it is an insert parallel or quasi-parallel to the ear canal with a partial open ear canal.
- the structure of this small loudspeaker 400, as far as the rotatability 406 is concerned, is largely the same as that of the previous small loudspeaker (300), i.e.
- this small loudspeaker 400 is, of course, its own and it can be seen clearly from FIGS. 6-8.
- a snap mechanism 412/413 ensures that the cover part 409 can be latched in, and thus results in a compact, rounded geometry, which is very important for a correct wearing of the loudspeaker body in the ear.
- the remaining parts of this small speaker 400 have the same functionality as the previous small speaker (300).
- connection lines 311, 414 a connection by means of slip ring contacts can be provided for sound transmission in the area of the rotatable parts, which then ensure the electrical connection between the movable loudspeaker bodies 305, 405 and the respective base bodies 301, 401.
