  • Patent number: 9337594
    Abstract: An electrical connector device (1), which extends along a longitudinal axis (X) and having an interface part (2) comprising a first set (3) of electrical contact elements (3a, 3b, 3c, 3d) arranged along a first line (L1), which is orthogonal to the longitudinal axis (X). The connector device (1) comprises mechanical engagement elements (17, 18, 19) being shaped such that the electrical connector device (1) can be electrically and mechanically connected with an identical connector device (1) when they are aligned along the longitudinal axis (X) and one of them rotated 180 degrees about a transversal axis (Y) parallel with the first line (L1). The interface part (2) comprises a second set (4) of electrical contact elements (4a, 4b, 4c, 4d) and a third set (5) of electrical contact elements (5a, 5b, 5c, 5d).
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9031275
    Abstract: A headset (1) comprising an attachment device (2) for attaching the headset (1) to the head of a user and a speaker housing (3). The speaker housing 3 is connected slidable along and rotatable about a first axis (X) to the attachment device (2), such that it can be placed into a selected longitudinal and angular position within a longitudinal interval (LI) and an angular interval (AI). The longitudinal interval (LI) comprises a first zone (Z1) and a second zone (Z2), and the speaker housing (3) can rotate through a first angular interval (AI1), when in the first zone (Z1) and through a second angular interval (AI2), when in the second zone (Z2). The first angular interval (AI1) is larger than the second angular interval (AI2).
