  • Patent number: 6744901
    Abstract: In a neckband type headphone device there is provided a band onto which speaker units are connected at both ends thereof. These speaker units are worn on the left and right ears. The band has a shape wherein the area close to the connecting part between both speaker units forms a curve and passes on one of a position above and below the ears of the listener when it is wound in a circular shape and extended. The band is formed from an elastic material into a shape that presses down at the approximate center on the rear of the head of the listener.

  • Patent number: 5324985
    Abstract: A semiconductor element such as an encapsulated or non-encapsulated semiconductor chip having a multitude of terminals is mounted on one surface of a quadrate substrate. A multitude of connector pins extend from the other surface of the substrate. A plurality of connector lands are formed on a surface of the substrate and electrically connected to the corresponding terminals of the semiconductor element. The connector lands are electrically connected to the connector pins through wiring. The connector pins have a pitch that is larger near the connector lands than at locations farther away from the lands. The pitch between adjacent connector pins is made larger as necessary or desired so as to allow the passage of an increased number of connecting wires between the adjacent connector pins, thus ensuring high density wiring with improved efficiency.

  • Patent number: 5313364
    Abstract: An IC card arranged so that a connector cannot come off a frame during an assembly process in which the connector and a circuit board are accommodated in the frame and panels are thereafter attached to obverse and reverse surfaces of the frame. Projections on sides of the connector and resilient engaging/fixing hooks with oblique surfaces on the frame are engaged. As the connector is forced into the frame, the projections of the connector are brought into engagement with and temporarily deflect the engaging/fixing hooks of the frame. The connector is thereby fixed firmly on the frame.
