Abstract
Description
また、電気信号に基づく振動を耳軟骨に伝達させることが可能であって、装用時に対珠、耳珠、及び外耳道の入口のうち少なくとも2箇所に当接するイヤホンにおいては、耳介に接触する部位が少なくても安定して保持できるため、発生させた振動を耳軟骨に効率よく伝えることができる。更に、耳介に接触する部位が少なくて済むことから軽い装用感を得ることができる。
そして、電気信号に基づく振動を耳軟骨に伝達させることが可能であって、本体部に被さるカバーに外耳道に通じる開口を設けたイヤホンにおいては、カバーによって耳介に安定して保持できるうえ、外耳道が塞がれずに開放感が生じるために装用感も軽くなる。
