  • Patent number: 11290799
    Abstract: An ear unit for stably fitting in an ear includes a first surface facing inwardly toward the ear, a second, opposite surface facing outwardly from the ear and an outer circumferential surface formed between the first and second surfaces. The outer circumferential surface is shaped as a decremental curve. The distance between the ends of the decremental curve is approximately equal to the distance between a first cavity formed under the tragus of the ear and second cavity covered by the lower node of the antihelix of the ear. The first surface is provided with a curvature that provides a contact surface that substantially conforms to the concha, providing an improved attachment, thereby enabling the ear unit to fit closely against the concha when the ear unit is positioned into the ear.

  • Patent number: 9235271
    Abstract: An input device includes a small footprint keyboard with touch pad functionality. By disposing the touchpad and the mouse keys in the lower part and surrounded by the first and the second groups, one achieves a substantial ergonomic advantage in that the frequently used QWERTY keys are accessible, while at the same time the touch pad is within reach of any finger.

  • Publication number: 20040052389
    Abstract: Device by remote wireless transmission between a microphone/earpiece and a mobile telephone, telephone, exchange or the like where the earpiece (10) is formed as a large C and the distance between the ends of the C approximate equal the distance between a firts cavity formed under the tragus (4) of the ear and a second cavity covered by the lower node (15) of the antihelex (13) of the ear, and as the upper part of the C is protruding into the second cavity under a lap (2) covering the lower part of the second cavity. The earpiece unit comprises a transmitter/receiver, antenna, microphone (6) and a battery (7). The microphone (6) is connected to the earpiece (10) via a microphone rod (12) that also contains the antenna of the transmitter/receiver.
