Abstract: 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.

Abstract: This application relates to earbuds configured with one or more biometric sensors. At least one of the biometric sensors is configured to be pressed up against a portion of the tragus for making biometric measurements. In some embodiments, the housing of the earbud can be symmetric so that the earbud can be worn interchangeably in either a left or a right ear of a user. In such an embodiment, the earbud can include a sensor and circuitry configured to determine and alter operation of the earbud in accordance to which ear the earbud is determined to be positioned within.
Abstract translation: 本申请涉及配置有一个或多个生物测定传感器的耳塞。 生物测定传感器中的至少一个被配置为被压靠在一部分耳屏上以进行生物测量。 在一些实施例中，耳塞的外壳可以是对称的，使得耳塞可以互换地佩戴在使用者的左耳或右耳中。 在这样的实施例中，耳塞可以包括传感器和电路，其被配置为根据耳朵被确定位于哪个耳朵来确定和改变耳塞的操作。

Abstract: A balanced armature ("BA") based valve is described. The valve includes a motor having a coil assembly and a magnetic system, an armature extending through or being located adjacent to the motor, a drive pin coupled to the armature, and a valve flap of a membrane having a hole therein. The valve flap is actuated by the drive pin into open and closed positions, in response to respective motions of the armature. A housing contains the motor, the armature, the drive pin, and the membrane. In one embodiment, the membrane is attached to the housing and divides the housing into an upper space and a lower space, and there is airflow through the hole, between the upper space and the lower space, only when the valve flap is open.
Abstract translation: 描述了一种基于平衡电枢（“BA”）的阀。 阀包括具有线圈组件和磁性系统的电动机，延伸穿过或位于电动机附近的电枢，耦合到电枢的驱动销以及其中具有孔的膜片。 响应于电枢的相应运动，阀瓣由驱动销致动到打开和关闭位置。 外壳包含电机，电枢，驱动销和膜。 在一个实施例中，仅当阀瓣打开时，膜附接到壳体并将壳体划分成上部空间和下部空间，并且在上部空间和下部空间之间存在通过孔的气流。

The valve flap is actuated by the drive pin into open and closed positions, in response to respective motions of the armature. A housing contains the motor, the armature, the drive pin, and the membrane. In one embodiment, the membrane is attached to the housing and divides the housing into an upper space and a lower space, and there is airflow through the hole, between the upper space and the lower space, only when the valve flap is open. A first spout of the housing may deliver sound generated by an acoustic driver in the housing into a wearer's ear canal, and is also open to the upper space. A second spout of the housing is open to the bottom space and to an ambient environment. Other embodiments are also described.
