Filed:

Jul 26, 2007

Appl. No.:

11/816806

Inventors:

David A. Walsh - Reading MA, US
Carl Arthur Knobloch - Oviedo FL, US
Daniel R. Baker - Seattle WA, US

Assignee:

Biotechni America Spine Group, Inc. - Palm Harbor FL

International Classification:

A61B 17/86

US Classification:

606308, 606305

Abstract:

A locking mechanism () and method of fixation, such as the fixation of a fixation device () like a bone screw and of a rod () to the spine. The locking mechanism () includes a body (), an insert (), a rod seat () and a set screw. The body () includes a bottom portion (114) configured to receive the fixation device () and the insert () but prevents the insert () and fixation device () from passing therethrough once the insert () and fixation device () are engaged. The body () further includes a side portion (120) configured to receive the rod (). Between the rod () and the insert () is a rod seat ().

International Classification:

H04R 1/34
H04R 1/10

Abstract:

An open audio device includes an acoustic radiator that emits front-side acoustic radiation from its front side and emits rear-side acoustic radiation from its rear side, a front acoustic cavity that receives front-side acoustic radiation, and a rear acoustic cavity that receives rear-side acoustic radiation. At least one sound-emitting opening is acoustically coupled to the front acoustic cavity or the second acoustic cavity. The open audio device also includes a removable accessory that includes an acoustic transmission line that is acoustically coupled to the at least one sound-emitting opening when the removable accessory is attached to the open audio device.

International Classification:

H04R 1/10

Abstract:

An open audio device includes a housing and an acoustic radiator in the housing and that emits front-side acoustic radiation from its front side and emits rear-side acoustic radiation from its rear side. A front acoustic cavity in the housing receives front-side acoustic radiation, wherein the housing defines a front sound-emitting opening. A rear acoustic cavity in the housing that receives rear-side acoustic radiation, wherein the housing defines a rear sound-emitting opening. A support structure is configured to carry the housing on a user's head such that the housing is held proximate an ear of the user with one of the front or rear sound-emitting openings anterior of and proximate the tragus of the ear. The housing comprises an inner end that is configured to be closest to the user's head. The one of the front or rear sound-emitting openings that is anterior of and proximate the tragus of the ear lies at an angle to the inner end of the housing.

International Classification:

H04R 1/10

Abstract:

Aspects of the present disclosure provide an intentional leak from a rear volume of an ear cup to the atmosphere. The leak is created via a vent in the driver plate acoustic assembly. The vent reduces an acoustic load the ear cup cover creates on a rear cavity of an electroacoustic transducer contained within the driver plate acoustic assembly of a headset. Additionally, the vent is hidden on an assembled ear cup of a headset. Due to the placement of the vent, ear cup cover may have a smooth, seamless surface.
