- the extension unit also has at least one coupling element for coupling the upper part to the ring.
- the extension unit has at least two legs as coupling elements.
- One leg is coupled to a first end of the upper part and a second leg is coupled to the second end of the lower part.
- the invention relates to an expansion adapter with a ring for coupling with a
- the extension unit has a curvature which turns into a crus Inferius Anthelicis, an anti-helix and / or a concha of an user's ear.
- the invention relates to the idea to use an expansion adapter or an extension unit, which is made for example of a soft rubber, which allows bending and fitting in different ears.
- an extension unit can be attached to the housing of the in-ear, whereby a secure and tight fit in the user's ear is made possible in particular on the Crus Inferius Anthelicis, the anti-helix and the Concha.
- the extension unit may be interchangeable.
- FIG. 1A and 1B show schematic representations of an expansion adapter according to a first embodiment
- 2A to 2D show a plan view, a front view, a side view, an isometric view A, and an isometric view B of an ear listener according to a second embodiment.
- FIG. 1A and 1B show a schematic representation of an expansion adapter according to a first embodiment.
- the expansion adapter can be interchangeably attached to a housing of an in-ear earpiece.
- the expansion adapter or the expansion adapter unit has a ring 10 with a hole 11 and an extension unit 20.
- the ring 10 and the hole 11 are selected so that the ring fits securely on a housing of an in-ear earpiece.
- the expansion adapter unit can be mounted or attached to a housing of an in-ear listener.
- the extension unit 20 is connected to the ring 10 and serves as means for securing the expansion adapter in an ear of a user.
- the extension The unit 10 has four legs 22, 23, 24 and 25 and an upper and a lower part 26, which has a certain curvature.
- the upper portion 26 may be placed on the Crus Inferius Anthelicis, the anti-helix and / or the concha of an ear and has a first end 28 and a second end 29.
- the first end 28 of the upper part 26 is coupled to the first leg 22 of the extension unit 20, while the fourth leg 25 is coupled to the second end 29 of the upper part 26.
- the first leg 22 of the extension unit 20 is at a first connection point 22, the second leg 23 is connected to a second connection point 13, the third leg 24 is connected to a third connection point and the fourth leg 24 is coupled to a fourth connection point 15.
- the first, second, third and fourth connection points 12, 13, 14 and 15 are provided on the ring 10.
- the ring 10 and the extension unit 20 can be made in one piece or as a part. Alternatively, the extension unit 20 may be provided on the ring 10.
- the ring may be configured as a closed or open ring.
- first, second, third and fourth legs 22-25 have been shown with a particular curvature, these legs may also be implemented as straight lines. It should be noted that although four different legs 22-25 have been shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B, the extension unit 20 may be implemented with fewer or more than these four legs. The extension unit 20 can also be implemented without legs, for example as a solid body.
- the curvature 27 of the upper portion 26 is selected to fit (certainly) in a Crus Inferius Anthelicis, an anti-helix, and a concha of an user's ear.
- extension unit 20 and in particular the material of the four legs have been described above as one material, the extension unit may be implemented, wherein the upper part 26 may be made of a different material than the legs 22-25.
- an in-ear listener can be safely and comfortably adapted to almost every ear of a user.
- an expansion adapter may be provided which has a one-size-fits-all or fits all ears.
- the material of the expansion adapter according to the first embodiment is preferably soft rubber. Alternatively, other materials may be used which are sufficiently flexible and which allow comfortable and safe use of the expansion adapter in the ears of the users.

- the legs are preferably made of a soft rubber.
- the upper portion 26 with the curvature is selected to fit within the crus inferius anthelicis, anti-helix and concha of a user, with the second ends 29 on the crus inferius anthelicis, and the first end 28 in the concha of the User can rest.
- the upper part 26 can match the curvature in differently complex shapes of an ear of a user.
- the upper part 26 may bend as necessary. If the curvature of the Crus Inferius Anthelicis, the anti-helix, and the concha of a user is great, then the curvature of the upper portion 26 may be adjusted to such curvature as the flexible legs 22-25 will bend accordingly.
- the expansion adapter is configured substantially in the form of a shark fin.
