４は音孔である。[Detailed Description of the Invention] This invention relates to an earphone, and particularly to an earphone in which an earplug inserted into the ear canal is coupled to an earphone body containing an electroacoustic transducer. This type of earphone is widely used in various electroacoustic devices such as televisions, radios, and hearing aids, and is used for listening to sounds. The ear plugs mentioned here also include ear-shaped ear plugs (earmolds). By the way, conventional earphones are
As shown in the figure, the sound emitting part 1a that is integrally formed and protrudes from the earphone body 1 also serves as an earplug, or as shown in Fig. 2, the sound emitting part 1b that protrudes from the earphone body 1 is separate. There was one in which ear plugs 3 were press-fitted onto the body. In addition,
4 is a sound hole.
しかしながら、上記従来のイヤホンはいずれも
イヤホン本体に対して耳せんの突出角度が固定的

つて具合よく装着できず、たとえば外耳道壁で耳
せんの音孔をふさいだり、あるいは装着が不安定
となり耳せんが外耳道より脱落するといつた不都
合を生じ、使いづらいものであつた。 However, in all of the conventional earphones described above, the protrusion angle of the ear plug is fixed with respect to the earphone body. This means that users are forced to wear the earphones in a uniform way, ignoring the fact that the degree of curvature of the human ear canal varies from person to person. Therefore, users often do not fit the earplug properly along the curve of their own ear canal, and for example, the sound hole of the ear plug is blocked by the wall of the ear canal, or the ear plug becomes unstable and falls out of the ear canal. This caused some inconvenience and was difficult to use.

の不都合を解消したイヤホンを得ることを目的と
するものである。 Therefore, the object of this invention is to provide an earphone that eliminates the above-mentioned disadvantages by configuring the angle of the ear plug with respect to the earphone body to be variable.
以下、この考案の一実施例を図に沿つて説明す

に圧入結合することにより、イヤホン本体１１と
の結合を果たしている。 An embodiment of this invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. In FIG. 3, 11 is the earphone body.
Reference numeral 12 denotes a sound output section that protrudes from the earphone body 11, and is configured integrally with the earphone 11. The tip end 12A of the sound guide portion 12 is formed into a substantially spherical shape such as a spherical shape or a polyhedral shape.
12B is a sound hole. Reference numeral 13 denotes an earplug, and a sound hole 13A is formed in the center in the axial direction of the earplug, making it possible to transmit sound. This ear plug 1
3 is usually made of flexible synthetic resin, and its one end, the connecting end 13B, is connected to the tip 12A of the sound emitting part 12.
The earphone body 11 is connected to the earphone body 11 by being press-fitted to the earphone body 11.
かように構成することにより耳せん１３は回動
可能となり、使用者は各々自己に適応するように
耳せん１３の角度を調節して装着し得るものであ

３の結合端部１３Ｂの内側に、音導出部１２の略
球状に形成された先端部１２Ａと嵌合するように
略球状の凹部である嵌合部１３ｃを形成すればさ
らに好ましい。 With this configuration, the ear plugs 13 can be rotated, and each user can adjust the angle of the ear plugs 13 to suit his or her needs and wear the ear plugs 13. In order to prevent the earplug 13 from falling off from the sound emitting part 12 and to achieve a more stable connection, or to facilitate the rotation of the earplug 13, the earplug 1 is
It is more preferable if a fitting part 13c, which is a substantially spherical recess, is formed inside the connecting end part 13B of No. 3 so as to fit with the substantially spherically formed tip part 12A of the sound guide part 12.
上記実施例では、音導出部１２とイヤホン本体
１１を一体に形成したが、イヤホン本体１１に形
成した突部にアダプタを結合して音導出部を形成
してもよい。 In the above embodiment, the sound guide portion 12 and the earphone main body 11 are formed integrally, but the sound guide portion may be formed by coupling an adapter to a protrusion formed on the earphone main body 11.
また上記実施例ではイヤホン本体から突出する
音導出部の先端部を略球状に形成したものについ

に、音導出部１２の先端部に略球状の凹部１２Ｃ
を形成すればさらに好ましい。 Further, in the above embodiment, the tip of the sound emitting portion protruding from the earphone body is formed into a substantially spherical shape, but the present invention is not limited to this.
The point is that the earplugs only need to be rotatable relative to the earphone body, so as shown in FIG. The sound deriving unit 1 is
2 may be fitted. In this case, in order to help the earplug 13 rotate smoothly,
In order to prevent the earphone from falling off from the earphone body 11, a substantially spherical recess 12C is provided at the tip of the sound emitting portion 12.
It is even more preferable to form.
以上述べたごとくこの考案は、イヤホン本体か

もしくは音導出部と結合される耳せんの一端部の
いずれか一方を略球状に形成することにより、イ
ヤホン本体に対する耳せんの角度を可変に、換言
すると回動自在にするものである。したがつて、
耳せんの角度を変化するのに音導出部１２、耳せ
ん１３、その他の部分に何らの弾性変形を伴わな
いので、イヤホン使用者は、長時間使用しても弾
性変形の反力によつて外耳道や耳介に疼痛を来す
ことなく、自己の外耳道に具合よく装着、使用す
ることができる。 As mentioned above, this invention is based on the tip of the sound emitting part provided so as to protrude from the earphone body,
Alternatively, by forming one end of the earplug connected to the sound emitting portion into a substantially spherical shape, the angle of the earplug with respect to the earphone body can be made variable, in other words, the earplug can be freely rotated. Therefore,
Since the sound emitting part 12, the earplug 13, and other parts do not undergo any elastic deformation when changing the angle of the earplug, the earphone user can use the earphones for a long period of time without being affected by the reaction force of the elastic deformation. It can be comfortably attached to one's own external auditory canal and used without causing pain to the external auditory canal or pinna.
また音導出部の先端部あるいは耳せんの一端部
のうち、略球状に形成しなかつた方の端部に略球
状の凹部である嵌合部を形成すれば、より耳せん
の回動が円滑となり、しかも両者の脱落防止に資
することができる。 In addition, if a fitting part, which is a roughly spherical recess, is formed at the tip of the sound emitting part or one end of the earplug, which is not formed into a roughly spherical shape, the earplug can rotate more smoothly. Moreover, it can contribute to preventing both from falling off.
