A communication device configured for use in a user's ear canal including a sealing mechanism configured to acoustically seal a section of the ear canal and a sound conduit in acoustic communication with a sound source. The sound conduit has a first and second opening, a conduit housing, and a vent opening. To provide a reliable adjustment for the venting of sound waves between a sealed section of the ear canal and an ambient environment outside the sealed section, an acoustic valve having a valve member is moveably coupled with the conduit housing, which moveable coupling is configured to provide a relative motion of the valve member and the conduit housing, such that by such relative motion the acoustic valve provides for opening the vent opening, closing the vent opening, and/or adjusting a size of the vent opening. The communication device further includes an electrical actuator to activate the relative motion.

An auxiliary device charging case is used to facilitate translation features of a mobile computing device or auxiliary device. A first user, who may be a foreign language speaker, holds the charging case and speaks into the charging case. The charging case communicates the received speech to the mobile computing device, either directly or through the auxiliary device, which translates the received speech into a second language for a second user, who is the owner of the mobile computing device and auxiliary device. The second user may provide input in the second language, such as by speaking or typing into the auxiliary or mobile computing device. The mobile computing device may translate this second input to the first language, and transmit the translated input to the charging case either directly or through the auxiliary device. The charging case may output the translated second input to the first user, such as through a speaker or display screen.

Embodiments describe an eartip including an eartip body having an attachment end and an interfacing end opposite from the attachment end. The eartip body can include an inner eartip body having a sidewall extending between the interfacing end and the attachment end, the sidewall defining a channel and having a first thickness near the attachment end and a second thickness different from the first thickness at the interfacing end. The eartip can also include an attachment structure coupled to the inner eartip body at the attachment end, the attachment structure having an inner surface and an outer surface. The attachment structure can include an upper region interfacing with the sidewall and defining discrete through-holes, a lower region below the upper region where the inner surface defines a plurality of recesses positioned around the lower region, and a mesh extending across the channel and into the upper region.

A calibration device and method of manufacturing the same. The calibration device for a hearing earpiece configured to at least partially protrude into the ear canal of a user includes a calibration base. The calibration base a calibration insert. An air chamber is defined between the calibration base and the calibration insert. The calibration device also includes at least one earpiece receiving mechanism defined on the calibration insert. The at least one earpiece receiving mechanism is configured to create an sealed connection between given ear piece and the air chamber for calibration. The earpiece receiving mechanism is configured to at least partially receive the given earpiece. A corresponding method of manufacturing is also included.

A three-proof earbuds box protective case includes a bottom housing and a top cover mounted at the upper end of the bottom housing and can be opened or closed. One side of the bottom housing and one side of the top cover are hinged. A waterproof and dustproof ring is provided between the bottom housing and the top cover. The lower end of the bottom housing has a first shockproof flexible rubber having a first shockproof part fixed to the lower end surface of the bottom housing, and a second shockproof part fixed to the inner wall of the bottom housing. The upper end of the top cover has a second shockproof flexible rubber having a third shockproof part fixed to the upper end surface of the top cover, and a fourth shockproof part fixed to the inner wall of the top cover.

An ear-wearable electronic device includes one or more processors configured to detect presence of first and second hearing devices in a charging case, and to initiate a self-check protocol by at least one of the first and second hearing devices. The self-check protocol comprises wirelessly coupling the first and second hearing devices, selectively activating at least one electronic component of the first hearing device, and assessing performance of the second hearing device using an output or a response of the at least one electronic component of the first hearing device. The self-check protocol also comprises selectively activating at least one electronic component of the second hearing device, assessing performance of the first hearing device using an output or a response of the at least one electronic component of the second device, and storing results of the performance assessment in a memory.

A device includes a first electronic component and a case, wherein the case includes a first charging compartment configured to accommodate and charge the first electronic component. The device further includes a first magnet included in the first electronic component and a 3D magnetic field sensor included in the case. The device further includes a detection unit configured to detect a position of the first electronic component relative to the first charging compartment based on a magnetic field sensed by the 3D magnetic field sensor.

Wireless Blue Tooth® headphone controller comprises a game controller having a pair of wireless Blue Tooth® headphones removably stored within the game controller housing and a detachable pair of Blue Tooth® headphones in a separate case capable of being in electrical communication with the game controller.

The present disclosure relates to a wirelessly rechargeable in-ear hearing device, a charger for a wirelessly rechargeable in-ear hearing device, and a system comprising a wirelessly rechargeable in-ear hearing device and a charger for the wirelessly rechargeable in-ear hearing device.

The present invention discloses a miniature ear canal hearing aid, electronic elements other than a receiver being wrapped inside a housing, a front end of the housing being sealed and fixed at a rear end of the receiver, a sound outlet of the receiver being exposed to an outside of the housing, the receiver being wrapped with an eardrum head thereon, the eardrum head being fixed at the front end of the housing in a detachable manner, and the sound outlet of the receiver being located inside the eardrum head. The structure of the present invention can increase a degree of curvature of a portion going deep into the ear canal, reduce a volume of the hearing aid, and improve adaptability, comfort and concealment.
