Description


FIG. 1 is a top view of an example wing of an earbud that may be attached to a bud of a headset.



FIG. 2 is a bottom view of the example wing of an earbud of FIG. 1.



FIG. 3 is a side view of the example wing of an earbud of FIG. 1; the wing of an earbud is symmetric in this view, so the opposing side view is the same.



FIG. 4 is a front view of the example wing of an earbud of FIG. 1.



FIG. 5 is a rear view of the example wing of an earbud of FIG. 1.



FIG. 6 is an off-angle view of the example wing of an earbud of FIG. 1.



FIG. 7 is an isometric view of the example wing of an earbud of FIG. 1.



FIG. 8 is a top view of an example wing of an earbud that may be attached to a bud of a headset; the wing of an ear bud depicted in FIGS. 8-14 correspond to FIGS. 1-7, respectively, but depict a larger-sized wing of an earbud.



FIG. 9 is a bottom view of the example wing of an earbud of FIG. 8.



FIG. 10 is a side view of the example wing of an earbud of FIG. 8; the wing of an earbud is symmetric in this view, so the opposing side view is the same.



FIG. 11 is a front view of the example wing of an earbud of FIG. 8.



FIG. 12 is a rear view of the example wing of an earbud of FIG. 8.



FIG. 13 is an off-angle view of the example wing of an earbud of FIG. 8.



FIG. 14 is an isometric view of the example wing of an earbud of FIG. 8.



FIG. 15 is a top view of an example wing of an earbud that may be attached to a bud of a headset; the wing of an ear bud depicted in FIGS. 15-21 correspond to FIGS. 1-7, respectively, but depict an even larger-sized wing of an earbud.



FIG. 16 is a bottom view of the example wing of an earbud of FIG. 15.



FIG. 17 is a side view of the example wing of an earbud of FIG. 15; the wing of an earbud is symmetric in this view, so the opposing side view is the same.



FIG. 18 is a front view of the example wing of an earbud of FIG. 15.



FIG. 19 is a rear view of the example wing of an earbud of FIG. 15.



FIG. 20 is an off-angle view of the example wing of an earbud of FIG. 15; and,



FIG. 21 is an isometric view of the example wing of an earbud of FIG. 15.


Each of the wings of an ear bud in the accompanying figures may be a part of an ear bud of a headset that may be placed, i.e., worn, in a person's ear.


Stipple shading is used in the accompanying Figures to convey surface contouring and not texture. The broken lines shown in the drawings illustrate portions of the wing of an earbud that form no part of the claimed design; in such unclaimed portions the shading has also been removed.
