Patent number: 8891799Abstract: An earphone includes a cylindrical portion having an opening in one end and an audio output unit which outputs sound from one face. The audio output unit is fixed to the cylindrical portion such that another face is in contact with an end face of the one end of the cylindrical portion. The audio output unit and the cylindrical portion are insertable at least partially in the external auditory canal of a human being. The earphone further includes a thin-wall part provided in the cylindrical portion and a ring, made of a material of a greater specific gravity than the cylindrical portion, which is fixed to the inner surface. The ring is fixed in a position such that the ring overlaps in the axial direction of the cylindrical portion with respect to the thin-wall part.Type: GrantFiled: June 4, 2009Date of Patent: November 18, 2014Assignee: JVC Kenwood CorporationInventors: Takashi Fujikura, Kazunori Ishizaka

Patent number: 8265327Abstract: An ear piece to be detachably attached to a sound tube protruding from a housing of an earphone has a base portion with a through hole. The through hole has an inner wall with a first, a second, and a third portion continuously provided in order when viewed from the housing. The first portion protrudes inwardly and has a first distance from a protruding inner surface of the first portion to an axis line passing through the cross section of the base portion and the through hole. The second portion has a circumferential inner surface having a second distance longer than the first distance to the axis line. The third portion is formed continuously with the second portion, having a circumferential inner surface with a third distance longer than the second distance to the axis line.Type: GrantFiled: December 20, 2010Date of Patent: September 11, 2012Assignee: Victor Company of Japan, Ltd.Inventor: Kazunori Ishizaka

Publication number: 20110110543Abstract: A headphone housing has a first and a second summit in cross section. A sound emitter protrudes from the housing in side section. In the cross section, the first summit protrudes as being away from a point of intersection of an axis line of the sound emitter, that is horizontal and vertical to the side and cross sections, respectively, and a first straight line going through a cord guide located in an outer edge of the cross section, in a first side with respect to the first line and in a second side far from the cord guide with respect to a second straight line going through the point and intersecting with the first line. The second summit protrudes as being away from the point in the second side and in a third side, the opposite of the first side with respect to the first line.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 3, 2010Publication date: May 12, 2011Applicant: Victor Company of Japan, Ltd.Inventors: Kazunori Ishizaka, Takuya Arimoto
