Headset and headphone
There is provided a headset having a head band, at least one fork for receiving an earpiece and a receiving portion between an end of the head band and one of the forks. The fork is arranged pivotably about a pivot axis. The fork has a first end having a support element. The receiving portion has a slider having at least two receiving positions. The support element engages into one of the at least two receiving positions of the slider and thus limits the maximum deflection of the fork about the pivot axis.
1. A headset comprising:
a head band;
at least one fork having a top end and a bottom end, the top end including a support element, and the bottom end of the fork for receiving an earpiece;
a receiving portion configured to pivotally couple the top end of the fork to the headband on a pivot axis, the pivot axis being perpendicular to a plane formed by the headband, and the receiving portion including a slider having at least two receiving,
wherein the support element engages into one of the at least two receiving positions of the slider, each of the at least two receiving positions configured to position the at least one fork at a different angle relative to the headband.
2. A headset as set forth in claim 1 wherein the support element is fixedly connected to the fork.
3. A headset as set forth in claim 1 wherein the at least two receiving positions of the slider limit different maximum deflections of the fork.
4. A headset as set forth in claim 1 wherein the slider at least partially projects out of the receiving portion.
5. A headset as set forth in claim 1 ,
wherein the earpiece has at least one electroacoustic reproduction transducer, a microphone and a cover element for screening the microphone from the useful sound produced by the electroacoustic reproduction transducer,
wherein the cover element is at least partially provided between the electroacoustic reproduction transducer and the microphone.
6. A headset as set forth in claim 1 , wherein a locking member is provided at the bottom end of the fork,
wherein in the region of the pivot axis the earpiece has a support for receiving the locking member,
wherein in a first operative position the locking member at the bottom end of the fork does not engage into the support,
wherein in a second operative position the locking member engages into the support and locks the fork to the earpiece.
7. A headset as set forth in claim 1 wherein the earpiece has a receiving portion for receiving a microphone,
wherein the microphone is fixed in the receiving portion by means of a capsule mounting,
wherein the capsule mounting has an elastic material so that the microphone is provided in the receiving unit in structure-borne sound-decoupled relationship.
8. A headphone or earphone comprising:
a head band;
at least one fork having a top end and a bottom end, the top end including a support element and the bottom end for receiving an earpiece; and
a receiving portion configured to pivotally couple the top end of the fork to the head band on a pivot axis, the pivot axis being perpendicular to a plane formed by the head band, and the receiving portion including a slider having at least two receiving positions,
wherein the support element engages into one of the at least two receiving positions of the slider, each of the at least two receiving positions configured to position the fork at a different angle relative to the head band.
9. A headset comprising:
a head band;
a fork having a top end and a bottom end, the top end including a support element;
an earpiece coupled to the bottom end of the fork; and
a receiving portion configured to pivotally couple the top end of the fork to the headband on a pivot axis, the pivot axis being perpendicular to a plane formed by the headband, and the receiving portion including a slider having at least two receiving positions,
wherein the support element of the fork bears against one of the at least two receiving positions of the slider, each of the at least two receiving positions configured to position the fork at a different angle relative to the headband.
