Abstract: Communication unit comprising a housing in which at least one transducer is placed, and on which a microphone arm is suspended. The housing also has means, such as an ear hook, for fastening the communication unit to the head of a user. The microphone arm is pivotally connected to the housing by a hinge link, and at an outer area of the housing, so that the microphone arm can be moved between a first position in which it lies up against the housing, and a second position in which it extends away from the housing. The microphone arm has a length, which in the main is less than or of the same order as the greatest extent of the housing, so that in the folded-in state the microphone arm does not project out over the circumference of the housing. The communication unit can be used on both the right and the left side of the head, in that the ear hook (6) can be suspended in two different positions, corresponding to the communication unit being worn on the right or the left ear, respectively.

Abstract: An earpiece device (300) provides automatic left/right ear sensing for stereo reception as well as the ability to receive two separate and distinct channel signals. The earpiece device (300) provides an orientation indication as to which ear or channel it is coupled. A pair of such devices can be used as stereo headphones providing interchangeability between ears. The devices can also be used to receive distinct and separate channel signals. Thus, a communication system can automatically adjust a transmission to the headphone device in response to the orientation of the earpieces with minimal effort on the part of the user.

Abstract translation: 听筒装置（300）提供用于立体声接收的自动左/右耳感测以及接收两个独立且不同的声道​​信号的能力。 听筒装置（300）提供关于其耦合哪个耳或通道的取向指示。 一对这样的设备可以用作提供耳朵之间的互换性的立体声耳机。 这些装置也可以用于接收不同的和单独的通道信号。 因此，通信系统可以以用户的最小的努力响应于耳机的取向来自动调整到耳机设备的传输。

Abstract: A headphone includes two earphones attached to a headband by flexible adjusting bands for properly positioning and orienting the earphones with respect to ears of a wearer. Each earphone has a casing inside which a front-position speaker, a rear-position speaker, a middle-position speaker between the front-position and rear-position speakers and a lower-position speaker below the front-position, rear-position and middle-position speakers are arranged. The headband forms a casing inside which two top-position speakers are mounted, respectively associated with the earphones. The speakers are arranged to generate a multi-channel surrounding sound. The headphone also forms a chamber inside which a fan is fixed for generation of airflow to remove heat from the wearer.

Abstract: An ear mike phone as a hand-free device is disclosed, in which switches and the like for supplying a power to the mike and the speaker are efficient, and therefore, the driver's driving attention can be prevented from being dissipated. The ear mike phone includes a main body part connected to a mike and a speaker, and connected to a cable to be connected to a hand phone. A switch is installed on an adjustment board of the main body part, for activating the mike and the speaker. A switch control part is provided, with its one side contacting to the switch, and with its another side projecting from a side of the main body part. Upon activation of the switch, the main body part is more firmly settled into the ear, and therefore, the ear mike phone is operated in a sure manner.
