Abstract
Description
本願発明は、イヤフォン、ワイヤレスマイクなどの音響アクセサリーを取り付けて、耳に装着させる音響アクセサリーの耳装着具に関するものである。 The present invention relates to an ear accessory for an acoustic accessory that is attached to an ear by attaching an acoustic accessory such as an earphone or a wireless microphone.
従来、イヤフォンは、耳にかけたり耳穴に入れたりして使い、ワイヤレスマイクは、耳にかけたり頭につけたりして使用していた。 Conventionally, earphones are used by placing them on ears or in ear holes, and wireless microphones are used by placing them on ears or on the head.
そのためにつぎのような問題があった。
イヤフォンは、ずれやすく抜けやすかった。
ワイヤレスマイクは、ずれやすい上、頭につけるものは大型で使いづらかった。
耳や頭などに負担がかかって、長時間の使用は辛かった。
製品ごとの個別な装着法で互換性もないから、高価な上に小型化も遅れていた。
耳装着の技術が遅れているため、耳装着型製品の種類が少なかった。
本願発明は、以上の問題点を解決するとともに耳装着の新分野に道を開くものである。Therefore, there were the following problems.
Earphones were easy to slip off and easy to come off.
The wireless microphone was easy to slip off, and the one that attached to my head was large and difficult to use.
It was difficult to use for a long time due to strain on the ears and head.
The individual mounting method for each product is not compatible, so it was expensive and was downsized.
Due to the delay in ear wearing technology, there were few types of ear wearing products.
The present invention solves the above problems and opens the way to a new field of ear mounting.
らせんに巻いた楕円部の前端にU字部を設け、後端につなげて耳の付け根形の輪にし、輪の一部に音響アクセサリーを取り付け、楕円部を耳輪にかけ入れ、回してU字部に耳たぶを導入し、耳の付け根を取り囲んではめ込むことを特徴とする音響アクセサリーの耳装着具である。 A U-shaped part is provided at the front end of the ellipse wound around the helix, and it is connected to the rear end to form a ring at the base of the ear. An ear accessory for an acoustic accessory, wherein an earlobe is introduced into the ear, and the ear is surrounded and fitted.
1)装着、取りはずしが簡単である。
2)ずれない構造であるから、スポーツ、芸能などの激しい動きにも、安心して使える。3)荷重を耳の付け根全体で支えるから、小型、軽量にでき軽快な装着感が得られる。
4)耳に負担がかからないから、長時間の装着が楽になりストレスがない。
5)小型、軽量の上、汎用であるから、安価に製造できる。
6)音響アクセサリーのコードレス、ワイヤレス化を促進し、超小型化に貢献する。
7)耳に装着して使いたいものは、小型であればほとんどの物を本願発明に取り付けることができる。したがって、全く新しい分野に用途が生まれ、耳装着型製品の種類が増える。1) Easy to install and remove.
2) Since it is a structure that does not slip, it can be used with peace of mind even in intense movements such as sports and performing arts. 3) Since the load is supported by the entire base of the ear, it can be made small and light, and a light wearing feeling can be obtained.
4) Since it does not put a burden on the ear, it is easy to wear for a long time and there is no stress.
5) Since it is small, lightweight and general-purpose, it can be manufactured at low cost.
6) Contribute to ultra-miniaturization by promoting cordless and wireless use of acoustic accessories.
7) As long as it is small and can be worn on the ear, almost anything can be attached to the present invention. Therefore, applications are born in completely new fields, and the types of ear-mounted products increase.
以下、本発明の実施の形態を説明する。
(イ)金属などの線材を、らせんに巻いた楕円部1の前端に、U字部3を設け、直線または、ゆるやかな円弧状の前部2でつなげて、耳の付け根形の輪を形づくる。
(ロ)U字部3は、楕円部1のらせんで立ち上がり、中をのぞかせて耳たぶ6の導入を助け、そのつけ根に密着する。
(ハ)前部2は、頬に接して風当5のつけ根に密着する。
(ニ)楕円部1は、耳輪4のつけ根に密着する。
(ホ)図1から図4は、右耳用の耳装着具を示している。左耳用は、楕円部1のらせん方向やU字部3の立ち上がりが、逆になって対称形になる。
(ヘ)図5は、線材の断面図である。これ以外にも、芯入りにしたり、表面にコーティングをしたりできる。また、薄くすれば耳の付け根にならって変形するから、らせんを限りなく小さくした形、すなわち平板状となるので加工しやすくなる。
(ト)素材は、金属、樹脂、ゴムなどを使用する。
(チ)素材の種類と表面状態、U字部の幅で入れやすさ、はずしやすさは決まる。U字部3の幅を適正にした上で滑り止めをコーティングする方法もある。
(リ)本願発明を耳に装着するには、図3のように耳輪4に楕円部1をかけ入れ、左に回せば耳たぶ6がU字部3の中に導入される。次に、耳たぶ6を指で引き出すようにしてU字部3を押し付け、耳たぶ6の付け根に密着させれば、楕円部1は、耳輪4のつけ根に密着し、前部2は頬に接して風当5のつけ根に密着、耳の付け根をぐるりと取り囲んではまり込む。
(ヌ)これを耳からはずすには、U字部3に指をかけ、前部2が風当5からはずれるまで耳たぶ6を抜き、右に回して残りを抜き去り、耳輪4からはずす。
(ル)試作品で試してみると、一見、複雑に見える装着、取り外しが、それぞれなめらかに合成された一動作で一瞬にできたのである。
(ヲ)耳に比べて耳の付け根の形は、個人差が小さいのでサイズの種類を小さくできる。また、素材によっては、耳の付け根に合わせて削り合わせることもできる。
(ワ)耳に装着して使いたいものを列挙すると、イヤフォン、ワイヤレスマイク、音楽プレーヤー、補聴器、トランシーバ、カメラ、携帯電話などがある。
(カ)本願発明は、このまま市販する場合と上記製品のメーカーに提供して、耳装着型製品となる場合がある。したがって、汎用性が強く求められている。
(ヨ)そのため、同じ断面を持つ輪にして、輪のどこにでも取り付けできる形である。また、断面形状を数種類用意して、汎用の要求に応えている。
(タ)メーカーの仕様に合わせて、本願発明の一部を広げたり、肉を盛ったりする場合は、耳の付け根に接する面を変えないようにする。
(レ)耳に装着して使いたいものは、小型であればほとんどの物を、本願発明に取り付けることができる。したがって、全く新しい分野に用途が生まれ、耳装着型製品の種類が増えてゆくのである。
(ソ)耳装着型製品の特異な例を述べると、イヤリングでは、今までにない重量のイヤリングを耳につけることができ、全体がひとつのイヤリングとなる。また、防寒具に用いれば、耳型のデザインで小型のものができる。
(ツ)全く新しい耳装着法である本願発明の提供は、各メーカーの技術者間の小型化競争を促し、音響アクセサリーのコードレス、ワイヤレス化をはじめとする超小型の耳装着製品の実現に貢献する。
本願発明は、以上の構成よりなっている。
本願発明を使用するときは、上記の耳装着具の一部に、図4のように音響アクセサリーを取り付け、(リ)の装着法で耳に装着し、(ヌ)のはずし方で耳からはずす。耳の付け根をぐるりと取り囲んではめ込まれた耳装着具は、U字部3から耳たぶ6を抜かない限り、ずらすことも、はずすこともできない。また、荷重は耳の付け根に広くかかるため、軽い装着感で重量を支えることができる。Embodiments of the present invention will be described below.

(F) FIG. 5 is a cross-sectional view of the wire. Besides this, it can be cored or coated on the surface. Also, if the thickness is reduced, it deforms in accordance with the root of the ear, so that it becomes easy to process because it has a spiral shape that is as small as possible, that is, a flat plate shape.
(G) Metal, resin, rubber, etc. are used for the material.
(H) The ease of insertion and removal are determined by the type and surface condition of the material and the width of the U-shaped part. There is also a method of coating the anti-slip after making the width of the U-shaped
(I) In order to attach the present invention to the ear, as shown in FIG. 3, the earlobe 6 is introduced into the
(N) To remove this from the ear, put a finger on the
(Lu) When I tried it with a prototype, it seemed that the installation and removal seemingly complicated at first glance was made instantly with a smoothly synthesized action.
(Wo) The shape of the base of the ear is smaller than that of the ear, so there are few individual differences, so the type of size can be reduced. In addition, depending on the material, it can also be trimmed to match the base of the ear.
(W) When listing what you want to wear on your ear, there are earphones, wireless microphones, music players, hearing aids, transceivers, cameras, mobile phones, and so on.
(F) The present invention may be marketed as it is or provided to the manufacturer of the product to become an ear-mounted product. Therefore, versatility is strongly demanded.
(Yo) Therefore, it is a shape that can be attached anywhere on the ring as a ring with the same cross section. In addition, several types of cross-sectional shapes are prepared to meet general-purpose requirements.
(T) When expanding a part of the present invention or adding meat to the manufacturer's specifications, do not change the surface in contact with the base of the ear.
(L) Most things that are worn on the ear and used can be attached to the present invention as long as they are small. Therefore, applications are born in completely new fields, and the types of ear-mounted products are increasing.
(Seo) To give a specific example of an ear-mounted product, earrings can be worn with unprecedented weight, and the entire earring becomes one. Moreover, if it is used for a cold protection device, it can be made small with an ear-shaped design.
(Iv) The provision of the present invention, which is a completely new ear wearing method, encourages competition among engineers from manufacturers to contribute to the realization of ultra-small ear wearing products such as cordless and wireless acoustic accessories. To do.
The present invention has the above configuration.
When using the invention of the present application, attach an acoustic accessory to a part of the above-mentioned ear wearing tool as shown in FIG. 4 and attach it to the ear using the (R) wearing method, and remove it from the ear using the (N) removing method. . The ear wearing tool that is fitted around the base of the ear cannot be displaced or removed unless the earlobe 6 is removed from the
U字部3の底円部を、少し曲げることで指のかかりが良くなって、はずしやすくなる。 Bending the bottom circle part of the U-shaped
耳の付け根形の輪の一部を切り離し、つき合わせた形にすれば、製作しやすくなり、安くできる。 If you cut off a part of the ring at the base of the ear and put it together, it will be easier to manufacture and cheaper.
