Abstract
Description
本願は、米国仮特許出願第61/152,545号(2009年2月13日出願)の利益を主張し、この出願の開示は、その全体が本明細書に参考として援用される。
本発明は、概して、イヤホン(earphone、earpiece、earbud)の適合および密閉技術に関するデバイスならびに方法に関し、特に、限定的ではないが、耳栓および耳栓のためのポンピングシステムに関する。
例えば、分子量4.817E−26Kg/分子、密度p 1.29kg/m^3、温度20Cまたは293K、半径7mm、内圧P1=1.2atm、外圧P0=1.0atm、表面積6.15cm^2、バルーン厚δ=0.002インチまたは0.005cmを有し、圧力が、t=8時間内に1.2atmから1.0atmまで降下する空気が使用される場合、以下の透過率値εが得られる。
したがって、同等またはそれ以下の透過率を有する材料は、設計基準を満たすであろう。例えば、ブチルゴム、ポリスチレン、高密度ポリエチレン、ナイロン6、テフロン(登録商標)、および他の類似材料である。
(3b)P3=P1+[(2σ)/R4]
ここで、σは、拡張した膨張要素の表面張力である。例えば、V4=1000mm^3、P3=1.2atm、およびP0=1.0atmを有することを所望する場合、V2=1.2cm^3である。
バルーン(膨張可能要素)が一定体積、従ってV1がおよそV4であると仮定すると、必要とされるリザーバ体積は、以下のように表すことが可能である。
例えば、V4=1000mm^3、内圧1.2atm、外圧1.0atmとして設計する場合、V2=0.2cm^3を得ることが可能である。
