摘要

A headphone having a first and a second ear pad each having a housing, a peripherally extending ear cushion, and a first electroacoustic reproduction transducer that emits sound outwardly, which is arranged in or on the housing of the ear pad. At least one second reproduction transducer emits sound toward a user's ear. In a first operating position, the ear pads are placed with the ear cushion on or around an ear. In a second operating position, the ear cushions of the first and second ear pads bear against each other so that provided therebetween is a closed volume that serves as a resonance chamber for the two first electroacoustic reproduction transducers when the two electroacoustic reproduction transducers are activated in the second operating position. Reproduction into the free field outwardly with a good quality can be effected by the provision of the internal volume as a resonance chamber.

主权项

1. A headphone comprising:
a first ear pad and a second ear pad, each of the first and second ear pads having:
a housing; anda peripherally extending ear cushion; at least one first electroacoustic reproduction transducer that is arranged in or on at the housing of one of the first and second ear pads to emit sound outwardly or away from the respective ear cushion; and at least one second reproduction transducer that is arranged within the housing of one of the first and second ear pads to emit sound inwardly or in the direction of the respective ear cushion; wherein the headphone has:
a first operating position in which the ear pads are placed with each ear cushion on or around an ear: anda second operating position in which the ear cushion of the first and second ear pads bear against each other over their full periphery so that formed therebetween is a closed continuous volume serving as a continuous resonance chamber for the at least one first electroacoustic reproduction transducer when the at least one first electroacoustic reproduction transducer is activated in the second operating position.
