Abstract: To avoid undesirable electrostatic discharge events while maintaining low leakage currents, earbuds may be provided with controlled electrostatic discharge paths. The discharge paths may include discrete components such as resistors or more distributed resistive components such as resistive elastomers. A resistive elastomer may be incorporated into an interior portion of an earbud between an earbud housing structure and a ground path. A resistive elastomer may also be used in forming an ear bud tip.

Abstract translation: 为了避免不必要的静电放电事件同时保持低的漏电流，耳塞可以设有受控的静电放电路径。 放电路径可以包括诸如电阻器之类的离散元件，或者诸如电阻弹性体的更分布的电阻元件。 电阻性弹性体可以结合到耳塞壳体结构和接地路径之间的耳塞的内部。 电阻性弹性体也可用于形成耳芽尖端。
