Description

Description

This application is related to U.S. patent application Ser. No. 15/592,126 filed May 10, 2017, now U.S. Pat. No. 10,235,997, U.S. patent application Ser. No. 15/592,128 filed May 10, 20 2017, now U.S. Pat. No. 10,332,516, U.S. patent application Ser. No. 15/593,236 filed May 11, 2017, now U.S. Pat. No. 10,402,450, and U.S. patent application Ser. No. 15/592,137 filed May 10, 2017, each of which is incorporated by reference in its entirety.

FIG. 1 is a front, left side perspective view of a panel of a voice interface device in a first illuminated state showing our new design;

FIG. 2 is a front, left side perspective view of the panel of the voice interface device in a second illuminated state;

FIG. 3 is a front elevational view of the panel of the voice interface device in the first illuminated state;

FIG. 4 is a front elevational view of the panel of the voice interface device in the second illuminated state;

FIG. 5 is a rear elevational view of the panel of the voice interface device;

FIG. 6 is a right-side elevational view of the panel of the voice interface device, the left-side elevational view being a mirror image of the right-side elevational view;

FIG. 7 is a top plan view of the panel of the voice interface device in the first illuminated state;

FIG. 8 is a top plan view of the panel of the voice interface device in the second illuminated state; and,

FIG. 9 is a bottom plan view of the panel of the voice interface device.

The broken lines depict environmental structure of the panel of the voice interface device that form no part of the claimed design.

The subject matter in this patent includes illuminated indicator lights, in grayscale, of a panel of a voice interface device. The grayscale shading in FIGS. 1-4 and 7-8 depicts a contrast of the illuminated indicator lights which is part of the claimed design without claiming any particular color. The appearance of the transition from the first illuminated state to the second illuminated state is sequential from FIG. 1 to FIG. 2, from FIG. 3 to FIG. 4, and from FIG. 7 to FIG. 8. The process or period in which the panel of the voice interface device transitions from the first illuminated state to the second illuminated state forms no part of the claimed design. The transition can be in response to user interaction to cause the lights on the panel of the voice interface device to transition from the first illuminated state to the second illuminated state.

Claims

The ornamental design for a panel of a voice interface device, as shown and described.
