DISPOSITIVOS AUDITIVOS U OTROS ELEMENTOS  HEARING DEVICES OR OTHER ELEMENTS
OBJETO DE LA INVENCIÓN OBJECT OF THE INVENTION
La invención, tal como expresa el enunciado de la presente memoria descriptiva, se refiere a una pinza ergonómica para sujeción en el oido de dispositivos auditivos u otros elementos, la cual aporta, a la función a que se destina, varias ventajas que se describirán en detalle más adelante que suponen una destacable mejora frente a lo ya conocido en el mercado para el mismo fin. The invention, as expressed in the present specification, refers to an ergonomic clamp for clamping in the ear of hearing devices or other elements, which contributes, to the function to which it is intended, several advantages that will be described in detail later that represent a remarkable improvement compared to what is already known in the market for the same purpose.
Más en particular, el objeto de la invención se centra en un elemento de soporte que, fabricado en material flexible, está especialmente destinado a facilitar la sujeción en el oído, concretamente en el pabellón auricular del usuario, todo tipo de dispositivos auditivos, tales como auriculares de aparatos electrónicos de telefonía y/o música (bluetooth, manos libres, mp3, etc.) o de aparatos audífonos, así como también para sujetar otros elementos, por ejemplo, ornamentales, tales como pendientes o "piercings" sin necesidad de realizar perforaciones, para lo cual, dicho elemento, se configura a modo de pinza prensil diseñada ergonómicamente para quedar sujeta al oído entre el trago (prominencia de la oreja situada delante del conducto auditivo) y el conducto auditivo externo, de tal forma que mejora notablemente en sujeción y comodidad la eficiencia de los auriculares y elementos similares convencionales conocidos hasta ahora en el mercado . CAMPO DE APLICACIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓN More particularly, the object of the invention is centered on a support element which, made of flexible material, is especially intended to facilitate clamping in the ear, specifically in the user's ear, all types of hearing devices, such as headphones of electronic telephony and / or music devices (bluetooth, hands-free, mp3, etc.) or of hearing aids, as well as to hold other elements, for example, ornamental, such as earrings or piercings without the need to perform perforations, for which, said element, is configured as a prehensile clamp ergonomically designed to be attached to the ear between the swallow (prominence of the ear located in front of the ear canal) and the external ear canal, so that it significantly improves in clamping and comfort the efficiency of headphones and similar conventional elements known so far in the market. FIELD OF APPLICATION OF THE INVENTION
El campo de aplicación de la presente invención se enmarca dentro del sector técnico de la industria dedicada a la fabricación de accesorios para dispositivos auditivos para aparatos electrónicos, audífonos o elementos ornamentales de joyería y bisutería . The field of application of the present invention is part of the technical sector of the industry dedicated to the manufacture of accessories for hearing devices for electronic devices, hearing aids or ornamental items of jewelry and costume jewelery.
ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓN BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Como referencia al estado actual de la técnica, cabe señalar que, si bien existen en el mercado diferentes tipos de carcasas ajustables al oído para auriculares y otros dispositivos o elementos auditivos, por parte del solicitante se desconoce la existencia de ninguna pinza o invención de aplicación similar que presente unas características técnicas, estructurales y constitutivas semejantes a las que presenta la que aquí se preconiza, es decir, una pinza ergonómica para sujeción en el oído de dispositivos auditivos u otros elementos según las particularidades detalladas en las reivindicaciones finales que acompañan a la presente memoria. As a reference to the current state of the art, it should be noted that, although there are different types of ear-adjustable housings for headphones and other devices or hearing devices on the market, the existence of any clamp or application invention is unknown. similar to presenting technical, structural and constitutive characteristics similar to those presented here, that is, an ergonomic clamp for clamping in the ear of hearing devices or other elements according to the particularities detailed in the final claims that accompany the present memory
EXPLICACIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓN Así, la pinza ergonómica para sujeción en el oído de dispositivos auditivos u otros elementos que la presente invención propone se configura como una destacable novedad dentro de su campo de aplicación, ya que a tenor de su implementación y de forma taxativa se proporciona al mercado un nuevo sistema de sujeción de elementos auditivos en el oído que mejora notablemente los hasta ahora conocidos . EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION Thus, the ergonomic clamp for clamping in the ear of hearing devices or other elements that the present invention proposes is configured as a remarkable novelty within its field of application, since according to its implementation and in a taxative way it is provides the market with a new system of clamping of auditory elements in the ear that improves significantly The hitherto known.
De forma concreta, lo que la invención propone es una pinza de silicona o material flexible similar que está diseñada para quedar alojada sobre el trago (que como es sabido es la prominencia de la oreja que queda situada a la entrada del conducto auditivo) , fijándose sobre este de forma que uno de sus extremos se sitúa exteriormente sobre dicha prominencia o trago, mientras que el extremo opuesto queda alojado interiormente en el conducto auditivo externo. Specifically, what the invention proposes is a silicone clamp or similar flexible material that is designed to be housed over the swallow (which as is known is the prominence of the ear that is located at the entrance of the ear canal), being fixed on it so that one of its ends is located externally on said prominence or swallow, while the opposite end is lodged internally in the external auditory canal.
Cabe mencionar que en el citado primer extremo de la pinza, es decir, el que queda situado externamente sobre el trago, se acopla el cable del dispositivo, en caso de llevarlo, o los adornos o abalorios que se desee en caso de servir como elemento ornamental, siendo en el extremo opuesto, el que queda situado interiormente en el conducto auditivo, donde se incorporan interiormente el auricular o dispositivo auditivo del aparato correspondiente. It should be mentioned that in the said first end of the clamp, that is, the one that is located externally on the swallow, the device cable is attached, if it is carried, or the ornaments or beads that are desired if it serves as an element ornamental, being at the opposite end, that which is located internally in the ear canal, where the earpiece or hearing device of the corresponding apparatus is incorporated internally.
Hay que señalar que, preferentemente, el auricular será del tipo conocido como intraural, es decir, ya que dichos auriculares están diseñados con unas dimensiones muy reducidas para caber en el interior del conducto auditivo. It should be noted that, preferably, the earpiece will be of the type known as intraural, that is, since said earphones are designed with very small dimensions to fit inside the ear canal.
La ventaja fundamental de la pinza ergonomica que la invención propone es la adherencia o fijación anatómica al pabellón auditivo que proporciona, gracias a la cual no se cae nunca al realizar cualquier tipo de actividad, ni siquiera al practicar deporte. Para conseguir la fijación de la pinza, esta se configura a partir de un cuerpo en forma de U cuyos extremos, preferentemente algo más gruesos que el puente que los une, tienden a aproximarse entre si, debiendo destacarse que, además, la presión de la pinza puede ser regulable mediante fuerzas de tensión que pueden ejercerse, o bien mediante una adecuada flexión de la propia pieza o cuerpo conformante de la pinza o bien mediante la incorporación en ella de elementos suplementarios, que pueden consistir en piezas metálicas imantadas o en pletinas flexibles, preferentemente de aluminio. The fundamental advantage of the ergonomic clamp that the invention proposes is the anatomical adhesion or fixation to the auditory pavilion that it provides, thanks to which it never falls down when performing any type of activity, even when practicing sports. To achieve the fixing of the clamp, it is configured from a U-shaped body whose ends, preferably somewhat thicker than the bridge that joins them, tend to approximate each other, it should be noted that, in addition, the pressure of the clamp can be regulated by tension forces that can be exerted, or by proper flexion of the proper piece or body forming the clamp or by incorporating additional elements therein, which may consist of magnetized metal parts or flexible plates, preferably of aluminum.
Por otra parte, al quedar la parte de la pinza que incorpora el auricular alojada en el interior del conducto, se mejora el rendimiento de los aparatos utilizados, evitando la necesidad de incrementar el volumen para tener una buena percepción auditiva. On the other hand, when the part of the clamp that incorporates the earpiece housed inside the duct remains, the performance of the devices used is improved, avoiding the need to increase the volume to have a good auditory perception.
Lógicamente, dada la variedad anatómica del pabellón auditivo externo, sobre todo en función del sexo y la edad, el diseño de la pinza podrá presentar diferentes formas y tamaños para adaptarse a las necesidades de cada usuario. Logically, given the anatomical variety of the external auditory pavilion, especially according to sex and age, the design of the clamp may have different shapes and sizes to adapt to the needs of each user.
Visto lo que antecede, se constata que la descrita pinza ergonómica para sujeción en el oído de dispositivos auditivos u otros elementos representa una innovación de características estructurales y constitutivas desconocidas hasta ahora para tal fin, razones que unidas a su utilidad práctica, la dotan de fundamento suficiente para obtener el privilegio de exclusividad que se solicita. In view of the foregoing, it is found that the described ergonomic clamp for clamping in the ear of hearing devices or other elements represents an innovation of structural and constitutive characteristics unknown until now for this purpose, reasons that together with its practical utility, provide it with a foundation enough to obtain the privilege of exclusivity that is requested.

REALIZACIÓN PREFERENTE DE LA INVENCIÓN PREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION
A la vista de las mencionadas figuras, y de acuerdo con la numeración adoptada, se puede apreciar en ellas un ejemplo de realización preferida de la invención, la cual comprende las partes y elementos que se describen en detalle a continuación. In view of the aforementioned figures, and in accordance with the numbering adopted, an example of a preferred embodiment of the invention can be seen therein, which comprises the parts and elements described in detail below.
Así, tal como se observa en dichas figuras, la pinza (1) en cuestión, aplicable para la sujeción de auriculares (2) u otros dispositivos auditivos o para sujetar otros elementos, por ejemplo, ornamentales, en la oreja de un usuario, se configura a partir de un cuerpo de material plástico flexible, tal como silicona u otro material similar, que presenta una configuración en U, donde los extremos (3, 4) del mismo tienden a aproximarse entre sí, estando dicho cuerpo dimensionado para quedar alojado sobre el trago de la oreja del usuario, fijándose sobre este mediante presión de forma que un primer extremo (3) se sitúa exteriormente sobre dicho trago mientras que el extremo opuesto (4) queda alojado interiormente en el conducto auditivo externo. Cuando la pinza está destinada para la sujeción de auriculares (2) u otros dispositivos auditivos, como es el caso del ejemplo representado en las figuras 1 y 2, en el primer extremo (3) de la pinza (1) se acopla el cable (6) de conexión al aparato, en caso de llevarlo, y en el extremo opuesto (4) , el que queda situado interiormente en el conducto auditivo, se incorpora interiormente el auricular (2) o dispositivo auditivo del aparato correspondiente, siendo, preferentemente, dicho auricular (2) de tipo intraural, es decir, de dimensiones muy reducidas. Lógicamente, en dicho extremo (4) se habrá previsto uno o más orificios (7) que permitan el paso del sonido. Thus, as observed in said figures, the clamp (1) in question, applicable for holding headphones (2) or other hearing devices or for holding other elements, for example, ornamental, in a user's ear, is configured from a body of flexible plastic material, such as silicone or other similar material, which has a U-shaped configuration, where the ends (3, 4) thereof tend to approximate each other, said body being sized to be housed over the swallow of the user's ear, being fixed on it by pressure of such that a first end (3) is positioned externally on said swallow while the opposite end (4) is internally housed in the external ear canal. When the clip is intended for holding headphones (2) or other hearing devices, as is the case in the example shown in Figures 1 and 2, the cable (1) is attached to the first end (3) of the clip (1). 6) for connection to the device, if worn, and at the opposite end (4), the one that is located internally in the ear canal, the earpiece (2) or hearing device of the corresponding device is incorporated inside, preferably being said earpiece (2) of intraural type, that is to say, of very small dimensions. Logically, at said end (4) one or more holes (7) that allow the passage of sound will be provided.
En dicha realización de la invención, los extremos (3 y 4) de la pinza, preferentemente, son de mayor grosor que el puente (5) que los une, permitiendo así la cabida en su interior del auricular (2) y del cable (6), si bien esta no es una característica limitativa, ya que el diseño y forma de la pinza se adaptará a las necesidades de cada caso. In said embodiment of the invention, the ends (3 and 4) of the clamp are preferably thicker than the bridge (5) that joins them, thus allowing the earpiece (2) and the cable (inside) 6), although this is not a limiting feature, since the design and shape of the clamp will adapt to the needs of each case.
Por otra parte, para conseguir la presión de la pinza (1) ésta cuenta con fuerzas de tensión que determinan la tendencia de aproximación entre sus extremos (3 y 4) las cuales consisten, o bien en una pronunciada flexión del propio material que conforma el cuerpo de la pinza (1) en la zona del puente (5), o bien en la incorporación de elementos suplementarios, por ejemplo piezas metálicas imantadas (8) incorporadas cerca de los extremos (3, 4) que propician su mutua aproximación, o una pletina flexible, preferentemente de aluminio, que actúa como flexo en la zona del puente (5) (elemento no representado) . On the other hand, to achieve the pressure of the clamp (1) it has tension forces that determine the tendency of approximation between its ends (3 and 4) which consist, or a pronounced flexion of the material that forms the body of the clamp (1) in the area of the bridge (5), or in the incorporation of supplementary elements, for example magnetized metal parts (8) incorporated near the ends (3, 4) that favor their mutual approximation, or a flexible plate, preferably of aluminum, which acts as a flex in the area of the bridge (5) (element not shown).
Descrita suficientemente la naturaleza de la presente invención, así como la manera de ponerla en práctica, no se considera necesario hacer más extensa su explicación para que cualquier experto en la materia comprenda su alcance y las ventajas que de ella se derivan, haciéndose constar que, dentro de su esencialidad, podrá ser llevada a la práctica en otras formas de realización que difieran en detalle de la indicada a título de ejemplo, y a las cuales alcanzará igualmente la protección que se recaba siempre que no se altere, cambie o modifique su principio fundamental. Describing sufficiently the nature of the present invention, as well as the way of putting it into practice, it is not considered necessary to make its explanation more extensive so that any person skilled in the art understands its scope and the advantages that derive from it, stating that, within its essentiality, it may be carried out in other embodiments that differ in detail from that indicated by way of example, and to which it will also achieve the protection that is sought provided that it does not alter, change or modify its fundamental principle .
