Application: Modular acoustic systems (Patent ID: US20230412967A1)
The patent filed by Bose Corp describes a modular audio system that includes an acoustic module designed to be removably engaged with a head-worn peripheral device, such as eyeglass frames. The acoustic module is configured to magnetically couple to the peripheral device, providing magnetic retention force in at least two orthogonal axial directions when in a resting, coupled position. The acoustic module housing contains circuitry and an acoustic transducer to produce acoustic energy near the user's ear, with the housing featuring a tapered surface with a magnetic element for coupling to the peripheral device.
The claims detail the construction and functionality of the removable acoustic module, emphasizing the magnetic coupling mechanism and the prevention of rotation once engaged with the head-worn peripheral device. The modular audio system includes the acoustic module and a head-worn peripheral device in a wearable eyeglass form-factor, with corresponding tapered surfaces and magnetic elements for secure coupling. The system ensures proper alignment and retention of the acoustic module through recesses and protrusions on both the module and the peripheral device, with the magnetic elements comprising permanent magnets or materials with high magnetic permeability. Overall, the patent focuses on a versatile and secure audio system that can be easily integrated with wearable devices for convenient use.
