The present invention relates to stereo sound image forward headphones, and more particularly, to a stereo sound image forward headphone utilizing a speaker provided on an ear hanger such that sound from the speaker is on the front side of the user's ear.
Headphones are often used in daily life of people nowadays. Speakers of conventional headphones always abut against the user's ears. Referring to
The Human ear is capable of discerning the source of sound. The left ear and the right ear discern the direction of sound from the same source as long as the sound reaches the left ear and the right ear at different time. As mentioned earlier, the left ear and the right ear perceive sound from a conventional headphone respectively, and thus sound images unfold in the ear canal between both ears of the user wearing the headphone. The brain's discernment of sound depends on experience. A headphone plays music by reproducing genuine music previously recorded, whether the genuine music is pop music, classical music, or even music performed live at a concert. While the source of the genuine music played by the headphone should be located in front of the user's ears, nonetheless sound images generated by a conventional headphone unfold in the ear canal between both ears. As revealed by the theory of acoustic psychology, the human brain continuously tries to discern the source of sound, but all such attempts are in vain in the aforesaid headphone usage condition. As a result, the conventional headphones eventually stretch the users' auditory function at a subconscious level. Therefore, long use of the conventional headphones is tiring.
Accordingly, a problem that calls for immediate solution and to be solved by the present invention involves providing a stereo headphon. The stereo sound image forward headphone utilizes a speaker provided on ear hanger, which is spaced apart from a user's ear by a distance, such that sound from the speaker is on the front side of the user's ear. The stereo sound image forward headphone not only creates a natural impression of sound heard from various directions as in natural hearing, but also protects the user's ear from hearing loss which might otherwise result from long use of a headphone.
In view of the aforesaid drawbacks of the prior art, the inventor of the present invention realized the room for improvement of the prior art. Hence, the inventor endeavored to devise a stereo sound image forward headphone based on the inventor's expertise and years of practical experience. The stereo sound image forward headphone utilizes a speaker provided on an ear hanger. Sound from the speaker is on the front side of the user's ear. The stereo sound image forward headphone creates a natural impression of sound heard from various directions as in natural hearing.
The primary objective of the present invention is to provide stereo sound image forward headphones, and more particularly, to a stereo sound image forward headphone utilizing a speaker provided on an ear hanger, which is spaced apart from a user's ear by a distance such that sound from the speaker is on the front side of the user's ear, thereby allowing the stereo sound image forward headphone to create a natural impression of sound heard from various directions as in natural hearing and protect the user's ear from hearing loss which might otherwise result from long use of a headphone.
The present invention provides a stereo sound image forward headphone. The stereo sound image forward headphone comprises at least one ear hanger capable of being hung on a user's ear, and at least one speaker provided on the ear hanger, which is spaced apart from a user's ear by a distance, such that sound from the speaker is on the front side of the user's ear.
Accordingly, utilizing the speaker provided on the ear hanger, which is spaced apart from a user's ear by a distance, such that sound from the speaker is on the front side of the user's ear allows the stereo sound image forward headphone to create a natural impression of sound heard from various directions as in natural hearing.
The present invention is herein illustrated with specific embodiments and the accompanying drawings, so that one skilled in the pertinent art can easily understand objectives, features, other advantages and effects of the present invention from the following disclosure of the invention.
