Abstract

See full text

An earpad is provided with a base and a sheath. The base is adapted to connect to a headphone housing or an earmuff housing and is formed with a continuous perimeter about a longitudinal axis. The sheath extends from the base and forms a contact surface that is longitudinally spaced apart from the base for engaging a portion of a user's head around an outer ear. The sheath defines a single enclosed cavity for receiving compliant material. The longitudinal spacing of the contact surface corresponds to a depth of the earpad. The depth of the earpad is generally uniform within a first portion of the perimeter of the earpad and increases to an enlarged depth within a second portion of the perimeter of the earpad. The sizing of the earpad may be based on average dimensions of the adult human head.
