A headphone device having a headband assembly worn on the head and a headphone main body attached to one end of the headband assembly. The headphone device is provided with an ear device that prevents slipping when worn and stabilizes wearability. The headphone main body is attached to the headband assembly in a rotatable manner so that the axis of rotation may be inclined with the center line of the headphone main body. The headphone main body can be matched to the inclination of the ear and th...

A headphone system includes a headphone; and a signal processing circuit for outputting an acoustic signal to the headphone. The headphone includes a first speaker and a third speaker for a right ear of a listener, a second speaker and a fourth speaker for a left ear of the listener, and a support for supporting the first through fourth speakers so that the first and second speakers are located forward with respect to a vertical plane including a straight line connecting the hole of the right ea...

A headphone device having the function of detecting the head turning angle, in which attempts to realize sound image localization in the forward direction and that in the rear direction simultaneously does not result in the impulse response processing becoming voluminous. If a headphone 7 experiences a rotary movement, a rotational angular velocity sensor 8, mounted on a headband 7a, outputs a voltage proportionate to the angular velocity. The output voltage is filtered by a bandwidth limiting f...

A headphone assembly includes a pair of headphones that are operationally coupled together. Each of the headphones includes a housing having a first wall, a second wall and a peripheral wall extending between the first and second walls. A plurality of openings extends into first wall. A sound emitter is mounted within the housing. A tubular member has a first end and a second end. Each of the first and second ends is open. A fastener is adapted for selectively attaching the first end of the tubu...

A headphone earpiece for wearing on a person's ear, comprises an annular pad adapted to engage around the ear and a sound transducer having a transducer diaphragm supported within said pad so as to define a coupling space between the transducer diaphragm and the person's ear. The support means includes a rigid plate between the diaphragm and the pad which has frictional resistances distributed thereover and which may advantageously comprise the material of the plate itself or a plurality of open...

In order to construct a headphone composed of a housing which holds a driver unit and an arm attached to the housing easily and favorably, a driver unit driven by an inputted audio signal, a housing 110 that therein accommodates the driver unit and has on its periphery a first flange portion for attaching an ear pad on the outside and an arm connected to the housing are provided. Then, a second flange portion that is connected to the first flange portion on the housing side is provided so that b...

Herein disclosed is a wireless headphone apparatus, comprising: a plurality of light signal receiving units each for receiving a light signal to produce an electric signal having a signal level; a plurality of light signal limiting units respectively connected with the plurality of light signal receiving units in one to one relationship, each of the light signal limiting units operative to allow only an electric signal having a signal level lower than a predetermined threshold value to pass ther...

A headphone structure comprises a pair of headband arms, a pair of phone units having joint arms, a first joint member for pivotally connecting the pair of headband arms, and a pair of second joint members for pivotally connecting the pair of phone units through their joint arms to the pair of headband arms, respectively. The headband arms and the phone units are collapsible via the first joint member and the second joint members. Rotational paths of the second joint members are included in a si...

A band comprising many beam portions and arcuate hinge portions formed integrally so as to be alternately arranged, a fitting force being obtained at least due to the returning force of the hinge portion so that the band can be expanded even with a small force and, in spite of the repeated use over a long period, the fitting force and winding action will not deteriorate and the band will not crack. The bands are connected symmetrically to both ends of a top band and are utilized as head bands fo...

A multimedia speaker headphone has a headband, two ear-covers and a control and transmission device. The ear-covers are mounted pivotally on the headband and each ear-cover has an earphone speaker and an audio speaker. The control and transmission device has a controller and a transmission apparatus. The controller is connected one of the ear-covers and has a switch to selectively switch on the earphone speakers or the audio speakers. The transmission device has at least one transmission cord ha...
