Publication number: 20230262878Abstract: A wireless earphone incorporates a wire antenna having a form factor driven innovative antenna shape that minimizes antenna detuning caused by user interactions with the earphones. The wire shape, diameter, and distance of the wire antenna from the printed circuit board (PCB) are selected for an acceptable tradeoff between antenna bandwidth and radiated efficiency. By inserting an end through a through-hole of the PCB, the wire antenna is electrically connected to a multi-layer PCB without traditional approaches such as springs, pogo pins, and the like. An antenna holder further secures the antenna within a thin profile housing for precise placement and manufacturing consistency. A PCB-specific RF VIA geometry is also utilized for partial impedance matching of a transmission line to the wire antenna. In addition, a more constant impedance is maintained along the transmission line connecting a radio device with the wire antenna.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 24, 2023Publication date: August 17, 2023Applicant: Shure Acquisition Holdings, Inc.Inventors: Christopher Zachara, Truong Vu Luu, Christopher Richard Knipstein

Patent number: 7388166Abstract: The present invention provides a stretchable fabric that may serve as a switch device or coupling to an electronic device and a power source by merely stretching or pushing the fabric. The stretchable fabrics may be usable in a wearable garment, furniture, or other suitable locations where it can be incorporated to close a circuit. Through a releasable stretching or pushing action by the user, electrically conductive strips integrated in the fabrics come in contact to activate related ancillary equipment such as power supplies or electronic devices.Type: GrantFiled: June 23, 2004Date of Patent: June 17, 2008Assignee: Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V.Inventors: George Marmaropoulos, Giang Truong Vu, Katharine Pulford

Patent number: 7378608Abstract: The present invention provides a stretchable fabric that may serve as a switch device or coupling to an electronic device and a power source by merely stretching or pusing the fabric. The stretchable fabrics may be usable in a wearable garment, furniture, or other suitable locations where it can be incorporated to close a circuit. Through a releasable stretching or pushing action by the user, electrically conductive strips integrated in the fabrics come in contact to activate related ancillary equipment such as power supplies or electronic devices.Type: GrantFiled: June 2, 2004Date of Patent: May 27, 2008Assignee: Koninklijke Philips Electronics N.V.Inventors: George Marmaropoulos, Giang Truong Vu, Katherine Pulford
