An inspection device is provided, including a base, a circuit assembly, an electrocardiogram sensor, a diaphragm, an annular member, and a positioning member. The base has a top surface, a bottom surface, a guiding portion, an opening, and an accommodating space. The guiding portion is formed on the top surface, the opening is formed on the bottom surface, and the accommodating space is formed between the top surface and the bottom surface. The circuit assembly is disposed in the accommodating space, and has a first contact and a second contact. The electrocardiogram sensor is disposed on the bottom surface and electrically connected to the circuit assembly. The diaphragm covers the opening. The annular member is rotatably connected to the base and has a guiding member. The guiding member is slidably connected to the guiding portion. The positioning member is affixed to the annular member and has a contacting portion.

A stethoscope includes a headset including a first eartube terminating in a first earpiece and a second eartube terminating in a second earpiece, and a chestpiece having a diaphragm. The stethoscope further includes flexible acoustic tubing having a first tubing segment connected to the headset and a second tubing segment connected to the chestpiece. The first tubing segment is manually disconnectable from the second tubing segment, and the first tubing segment is manually connectable to the second tubing segment to align and seal the first and second tubing segments and form an acoustic passageway extending from the chestpiece through the first and second tubing segments and the first and second eartubes to the first and second earpieces. Optionally, the flexible acoustic tubing with the disconnectable and connectable segments may be provided as a replacement component for a stethoscope.

The invention discloses a novel passive sound transformer, either a sound-booster or a sound-silencer, embodied as an acoustic waveguide, a specific shape of which provides for either amplifying the intensity of acoustic waves at the expense of both the heat energy and the concomitant turbulence of moving fluid wherein the amplified intensity of the acoustic waves is manifested as sound loudness boosting or, contrarywise, transforming the wave power of elastic waves into the heat of the ambient fluid.

A case that includes an acoustic horn and a microphone input therein to enhance the sound emitted from and input into a smart phone.

An acoustic meta material (AMM) spiral device for passive amplification of sound is described. The AMM amplifier device employs at least one deep sub-wavelength spiral design with high refraction index, based on an exponential spiral shape. The AMM spiral amplifier is used to focus on low frequency sound amplification and to cover broadband frequency range. Sound emanating from a speaker travels into a spiral channel until reaching the apex of the spiral. When twin spirals are used, the sound then enters a second spiral for radiating into open air.

A multi-audio stethoscope head comprising a head body (1) including a sound collecting surface (11), a vibrating diaphragm, and a fastener. The sound collecting surface (11) is provided with a sound guiding hole (16), and the fastener (3) is provided with an axial through hole (33), a fastener sidewall (31) for attaching to the head body (1), and a diaphragm pressing portion (32) for tightly attaching the vibrating diaphragm (2) to the head body (1). The vibrating diaphragm (2) is disposed between the diaphragm pressing portion (32) and the head body (1). Protruding poles (6) protruding toward the vibrating diaphragm (2) is arranged on the sound collecting surface (11) at the radially inner side of the through hole (33), and when the vibrating diaphragm (2) is not subject to external pressure, the vibrating diaphragm (2) is spaced from the protruding poles (6).

A system for improving accuracy of self-detection of a voice includes a first cup element having a forward end configured to contact a human face and a rear end configured to be spaced from a human head on which the human face is located such that the first cup element defines a first void configured to receive a first ear of the human head, the first cup element defining an opening to an environment of the system to provide a pathway for sound waves to travel into the first void. The system further includes a second cup element being a mirror image of the first cup element and defining a second void configured to receive a second ear of the human head.
