  • Patent number: 10440476
    Abstract: The present disclosure generally relates to the field of headphones. A pair of headphones (200) may have a headband (210) comprising a flexible elongated strip (211) and a rigid leg (220) such as a spring wire. The elongated strip (211) may have a first end (211a) attached to a first earpiece (230a) and a second end (211b) attached to a second earpiece (230b). Furthermore, the elongated strip (211) is configured to extend in a curvature from the first end (211a) to the second end (211b) to form an arced strip (211) which is configured to extend along a portion of a head of a user of the pair of headphones (200). The leg (220) abuts against the elongated strip (211) and further extends along the elongated strip (211) from the first end (211a) to the second end (211b). Moreover, the leg (220) may advantageously be positioned along a center portion of the elongated strip (211).

  • Publication number: 20050017645
    Abstract: A multi-grid ion beam source has an extraction grid, an acceleration grid, a focus grid, and a shield grid to produce a highly collimated ion beam. A five grid ion beam source is also disclosed having two shield grids. The extraction grid has a high positive potential and covers a plasma chamber containing plasma. The acceleration grid has a non-positive potential. The focus grid is positioned between the acceleration grid and the shield grid. The combination of the extraction grid and the acceleration grid extracts ions from the plasma. The focus grid acts to change momentum of the ions exiting the acceleration grid, focusing the ions into a more collimated ion beam than previous approaches. In one embodiment, the focus grid has a large positive potential. In another embodiment, the focus grid has a large negative potential.
