Abstract

A wireless headphone system is disclosed that provides a hands-free and cord-free way to listen to a personal electronic device. The wireless headphone system comprises an earpiece component with an embedded wireless receiver and a headphone jack component with an embedded transmitter, wherein the transmitter and the wireless receiver are in communication with each other. The earpiece component comprises a protruding ear bud component, a curved arm component that wraps around a user'"'"'s ear to secure the earpiece component in place, and a wireless receiver. The headphone jack component comprises a jack adapter component which is plugged into an electronic device to transmit music to the earpiece component, and a transmitter. The transmitter and the wireless receiver are in communication with each other to transmit signals from the headphone jack component to be received by the wireless receiver in the earpiece component.

Claims

1. A wireless headphone system, comprising:

an earpiece component comprising a front surface and a back surface;

a wireless receiver embedded within the earpiece component;

a headphone jack component comprising a top end and a bottom end; and

a transmitter embedded within the headphone jack component; and

wherein the transmitter and the wireless receiver are in communication with each other.

2. The wireless headphone system of claim 1, wherein the earpiece component comprises a protruding ear bud component secured to the back surface.

3. The wireless headphone system of claim 2, wherein the protruding ear bud component is secured to the back surface via at least one of gluing, threading, or ultrasonic welding.

4. The wireless headphone system of claim 2, wherein the protruding ear bud component is made of a sweat-resistant material.

5. The wireless headphone system of claim 1, wherein the earpiece component comprises a curved arm component that wraps around a user'"'"'s ear to secure the earpiece component in place.

6. The wireless headphone system of claim 1, wherein the headphone jack component comprises a jack adapter component.

7. The wireless headphone system of claim 6, wherein the jack adapter component is plugged into an electronic device to transmit music to the ear piece component.

8. The wireless headphone system of claim 7, wherein the electronic device is at least one of a smart phone, a MP3 player, a tablet, or a cellular phone.

9. The wireless headphone system of claim 1, wherein the headphone jack component is manufactured of plastic.

10. The wireless headphone system of claim 1, wherein the earpiece component comprises a microphone, and wherein verbal utterances of a user are transmitted to the headphone jack component so that a user can verbally choose a song or a playlist.

11. The wireless headphone system of claim 1, wherein the earpiece component comprises a visible light source to indicate when power is being supplied to earpiece component.

12. A wireless headphone system, comprising:

an earpiece component comprising a front surface and a back surface;

a wireless receiver embedded within the earpiece component;

a headphone jack component comprising a jack adapter component and a transmitter embedded within the headphone jack component;

wherein the transmitter and the wireless receiver are in communication; and

wherein the jack adapter component is plugged into an electronic device to transmit music to the earpiece component.

13. The wireless headphone system of claim 12, wherein the electronic device is at least one of a smart phone, a MP3 player, a tablet, or a cellular phone.

14. The wireless headphone system of claim 12, wherein the earpiece component comprises a protruding ear bud component secured to the back surface.

15. The wireless headphone system of claim 14, wherein the protruding ear bud component is secured to the back surface via at least one of gluing, threading, or ultrasonic welding.

16. The wireless headphone system of claim 14, wherein the protruding ear bud component is made of a sweat-resistant material.

17. The wireless headphone system of claim 12, wherein the earpiece component comprises a curved arm component that wraps around a user'"'"'s ear to secure the earpiece component in place.

18. A wireless headphone system, comprising:

an earpiece component comprising a protruding ear bud component, a curved arm component that wraps around a user'"'"'s ear to secure the earpiece component in place, and

a wireless receiver embedded within the earpiece component;

a headphone jack component comprising a jack adapter component and a transmitter embedded within the headphone jack component;

wherein the transmitter and the wireless receiver are in communication; and

wherein the jack adapter component is plugged into an electronic device to transmit music to the earpiece component.

19. The wireless headphone system of claim 18, wherein the electronic device is at least one of a smart phone, a MP3 player, a tablet, or a cellular phone.
