Jay Victor has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Publication number: 20070099499
    Abstract: The present invention is a leveraged electronic plug for audio and video appliances having an easy-to-grip first portion and collar fitted onto the back end of the plug. Locating the first portion and collar behind the body of the plug creates a lever capable of reducing the amount of force necessary to insert or pull out the plug. A flat gripping surface on the collar may be used to place a trademark or another symbol that otherwise could not be placed on the plug.

  • Patent number: 7170008
    Abstract: An audio signal cable consisting of various combinations of two or more distinct types of conductors. The cable contains at least two conductors of different types. The individual conductors within the cable may be individually insulated or uninsulated. The individual conductors may also be of varying shapes and sizes. The conductors are surrounded by a common insulation. Combining at least two types of different conductors within the cable provides the cable with a versatility to be adaptable to a wide variety of sound applications.

  • Publication number: 20060289196
    Abstract: An audio signal cable, the features of which are that the audio signal cable has arrayed solid and tinsel wire conductors. After each of the conductors are insulated and bundled, they are placed into a surrounding insulation. The solid conductors are of a circular and a flat, thin shape. The solid conductors are of differing larger and smaller diameters and, furthermore, disposed in unequal quantities.

  • Publication number: 20060050508
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a luminous A/V cable assembly. The luminous A/V cable assembly comprises an A/V transmission line and a power line, wherein a plurality of light bulbs is connected to the power line; the plurality of light bulbs is connected in series to define a light bulb group, or using in series and(or) in parallel or any combination of in series and in parallel connecting method; the A/V transmission cable and the power cable being connected to the plurality of light bulb groups are clad with a plastic material to constitute an A/V cable having an overall different colored luminous effect.

  • Publication number: 20060027392
    Abstract: An audio and video signal cable consisting of combined conductors of various geometric shapes and cross-sectional areas that are parallel arrayed. All conductors are surrounded by a common insulation, and may be individually insulated. Tinsel, or enamel covered wire, will be utilized as one type of conductor, which not only reduces cable outer diameter and increases tensile strength, but also effectively reduces skin effect issues and enhances high frequency transmission, while larger cross-sectional area circular conductors facilitate rapid low frequency passage and flat conductors facilitate midrange reproduction by eliminating interaction from other frequencies. As such, the present invention is capable of high- and low-frequency band phase synchronicity as well as optimal balance across all frequencies.

  • Publication number: 20050011667
    Abstract: An improved structure of audio signal cable, the features of which are that the audio signal cable is comprised of arrayed solid and tinsel wire conductors. After each of the conductors are insulated and bundled, they are placed into a surrounding insulation. The solid conductors are of a circular and a flat, thin shape. The solid conductors are of differing larger and smaller diameters and, furthermore, disposed in unequal quantities. The smaller diameter tinsel wires are twisted to increase distance and enlarge their surface area to reduce skin effect for better high frequency transmission, while the larger diameter conductors enable the rapid conveyance of low frequencies. As such, the present invention achieves the synchronous phasing of high and low frequency signals.
