Headset With Adjustable Headband

View page
US Patent:
8160287, Apr 17, 2012
Filed:
May 22, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/470660
Inventors:
Gordon Slippy - Murrysville PA, US
Doug Keeports - Murrysville PA, US
Assignee:
Vocollect, Inc. - Pittsburgh PA
International Classification:
H04R 25/00
US Classification:
381377, 381367, 381374, 381379
Abstract:
A headset includes an element to be held to the head of a wearer and a headband coupled to the element and configured for engaging a head of a wearer to hold the element thereon. The headband includes a plurality of headband arms coupled to pivot with respect to each other. A torsion spring is positioned between the arms and portions of the torsion spring are coupled to the arms for acting on the arms with a torsion force. An adjustment member is coupled between the torsion spring and a headband arm and is operable for adjusting the torsion force of the torsion spring to adjust the torsion force on the arms.

Electrical Cable With Strength Member

View page
US Patent:
8241053, Aug 14, 2012
Filed:
Mar 18, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/726477
Inventors:
Gordon Slippy - Murrysville PA, US
Paul Reynolds - Harmony PA, US
Don Hines - Butler PA, US
Assignee:
Vocollect, Inc. - Pittsburgh PA
International Classification:
H01R 13/627
US Classification:
439353
Abstract:
A cord assembly for an electronic device includes a cord having an insulation layer with a first end and an exterior surface, as well as at least one electrical conductor extending within the insulation layer. A strength member also extends within the insulation layer and includes a first end extending beyond the first end of the insulation layer. A securing element couples the first end of the strength member with the first end of the insulation layer along the exterior surface. The strength member is pre-tensioned to carry any additional tensile loads on the cord, at least initially. The cord assembly may also include a strain relief member molded over the first end of the strength member and the securing element.

Break-Away Electrical Connector

US Patent:
8262403, Sep 11, 2012
Filed:
Sep 10, 2009
Appl. No.:
12/557011
Inventors:
Gordon Slippy - Murrysville PA, US
Donald E. Hines - Butler PA, US
Charles Amurgis - Mars PA, US
Jon J. Danzak - Pittsburgh PA, US
Assignee:
Vocollect, Inc. - Pittsburgh PA
International Classification:
H01R 13/627
US Classification:
439353
Abstract:
An electrical connector for electrically connecting a terminal to a cord of a peripheral device, the electrical connector including a plug member, a lever arm pivotally attached to the plug member, and a biasing member. The plug member and lever arm each include an engagement claw adapted to engage complementary surfaces on the terminal, and the biasing member imparts a biasing force on the lever arm to force the engagement claws to close onto the complementary surfaces on the terminal. The lever arm advantageously includes a first gripping surface with a contoured concave profile for a user to apply a releasing force against the biasing force to remove the plug member from the terminal. A second surface includes a concave surface for engaging a user's finger and forming a grip bump.

Headset With Electrostatic Discharge Reduction

View page
US Patent:
20120045082, Feb 23, 2012
Filed:
Aug 20, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/860414
Inventors:
James Wahl - Pittsburgh PA, US
Gordon Slippy - Murrysville PA, US
Paul Reynolds - Harmony PA, US
International Classification:
H04R 1/10
US Classification:
381375, 381384
Abstract:
Embodiments of the invention provide for a headset and system including a portable device, wherein the headset includes an electrically conductive band configured to engage a portion of a head of a user and coupling together a headpiece and an earpiece assembly. The headpiece includes an electrically conductive portion that is configured to engage and electrically couple to the user's head. The headpiece is electrically coupled with the conductive band. The earpiece assembly is coupled with the conductive band to engage an ear of a user and has a ground conductor that is electrically coupled between the conductive band and a portable device for coupling the portable device to the head of a user for reducing electrostatic discharge at the head of the user of the portable device.
