Quasi-triangular in-ear device
The in-ear device is shaped to fit a wearer's ear morphology. The device includes a main body having at least three generally convex sides, an innermost face and an outermost face. A first side is shaped to fit the tragus of a wearer's ear, and a second side is shaped to fit an antitragus of a wearer's ear. At least three tips, generally rounded, join respective two adjacent sides. The main body is within an outer ear plane substantially perpendicular to an entrance of an ear canal of a wearer's ear.
1. An in-ear device for fitting a wearer's ear morphology, said device comprising a main body having three sides, an innermost face and an outermost face, a first side of said three sides being shaped for fitting the tragus of a wearer's ear, a second side of said three sides being shaped for fitting an antitragus of a wearer's ear, and three tips, wherein each of the three tips uniting respective two sides of said three sides, the main body being within an ear plane substantially perpendicular to an entrance of an ear canal of a wearer's ear and having at least one longitudinal plane of symmetry between the first side of said three sides being shaped for fitting the tragus of a wearer's ear and the second side of said three sides being shaped for fitting an antitragus of a wearer's ear, the three sides generally equal to one another, said three sides forming the in-ear device with a quasi-triangular shape of the main body.
2. The device of claim 1 , further comprising an inner protrusion protruding outwardly from on the innermost face of the main body, wherein said inner protrusion is intended for being inserted in the ear canal of the wearer.
3. The device of claim 2 , wherein the inner protrusion is substantially for fitting with an ear canal of the wearer.
4. The device of claim 3 , wherein the inner protrusion of the main body has at least one longitudinal plane of symmetry, said plane of symmetry coinciding with the longitudinal plane of symmetry between the first side of said three sides being shaped for fitting the tragus of a wearer's ear and the second side of said three sides being shaped for fitting an antitragus of a wearer's ear.
5. The device of claim 1 , wherein the three tips of the main body are rounded.
6. The device of claim 5 , wherein the main body has three longitudinal planes of symmetry, each said longitudinal plane of symmetry being between two respective ones of said three sides adjacent to one another.
7. The device of claim 1 , wherein the three sides of the main body are convex.
8. The device of claim 1 , wherein the main body has an outer protrusion protruding outwardly from one of the tips of the main body and defining an external gripping element.
9. The device of claim 8 , wherein the shape of the gripping element is designed for fitting the helix of a wearer's ear.
10. The device of claim 1 , wherein the main body has an outer protrusion protruding outwardly from the outermost face of the main body and defining an external gripping element.
11. The device of claim 10 , wherein the shape of the gripping element is designed for fitting the helix of a wearer's ear.
