  • Publication number: 20250097624
    Abstract: A headband for a headset comprising a carrier, a first strap and a wrapping is disclosed. The carrier is curved to conform to a wearer's head. The first strap is attached to the carrier at two attachment points. The wrapping is attached to the carrier and arranged to conceal the first strap. The first strap and the wrapping together form a head abutment portion extending between the two attachment points and configured to abut to the wearer's head when the headband is worn by the wearer. At least one of the first strap and the wrapping comprises a flexible and elastic material configured to stretch along the length of the carrier between the two attachment points, thereby providing the head abutment portion configured to adapt to the shape of the wearer's head.

  • Patent number: 11317190
    Abstract: A headset comprising a first earphone and a microphone arm, which is rotatable around a first hinge axis, so it can rotate between a use position and a rest position. The microphone arm comprises a first arm part extending from the first hinge and a second arm part extending between the first arm part and a free end. The first arm part and the second arm part are interconnected by a second hinge. The second arm part comprises an engagement part, which during rotation of the microphone arm around the first axis from the use position to the rest position is adapted to engage the earphone, whereby the second arm part is forced to rotate from the second position to the first position.

  • Patent number: 10979798
    Abstract: A headphone (1) comprising a first earphone (2) and a headband (3) to be arranged around the head of a user. The headband (3) comprises a first headband part (4) and a second headband part (5), that are telescopically connected, so that the length of the headband (3) can be adjusted in a longitudinal direction (Y). The first headband part (4) comprises an inner wall (9) with a protruding longitudinal first rib (8), which first rib (8) has a first rib sidewall (35) with a first rib protrusion (33) and a second opposite rib sidewall (36) with a second rib protrusion (34). The second headband part (5) comprises an outer wall (7) with a first longitudinal groove (6), which first groove (6) has first groove sidewall (20) with a first groove protrusion (22) and a second opposite groove sidewall (21) with a second groove protrusion (23).

  • Patent number: 10972828
    Abstract: A headphone (1) comprising a first earphone (2) and a headband (3) to be arranged around the head of a user The headband (3) comprises a first headband part (4) and a second headband part (5), which are slidably connected to each other, so that the length of the headband (3) can be adjusted in a longitudinal direction (Y). There is provided a controlled friction mechanism, that controls the friction between the first headband part (4) and the second headband part (5). The friction mechanism comprises a first cantilever (8) comprised by the second headband part (5) and a first friction element (11) of elastomeric abutment material, which is attached to the first cantilever (8) and which due to elastic deformation of the first cantilever (8) abuts and exerts a force against a first contact area of the first headband part (4).
