Stereophonic magnetic induction sound system
First Claim
1. A stereophonic magnetic induction sound system, comprising:
- a first ear piece having a first inductive pick-up coil, a second ear piece having a second inductive pick-up coil, and a magnetic induction transmitter capable of transmitting a first signal to said first inductive pick-up coil and a second signal to said second inductive pick-up coil, said first signal being different from said second signal, said magnetic induction transmitter comprising;
a supporting member comprising a flexible loop sized to fit about a neck of a user and having a frontal depending Y-junction, a first magnetic induction antenna disposed on said supporting member sufficiently close to said first pick-up coil to transmit a first signal to be received by said first pick-up coil, a second magnetic induction antenna disposed sufficiently close to said second pick-up coil to transmit a second signal to be received by said second pick-up coil, a jack;
a first conductor extending between said jack and said first antenna for transmitting said first signal to said first antenna, a second conductor extending between said jack and said second antenna for transmitting said second signal to said second antenna, a first ground extending between said first antenna and said jack, and a second ground extending between said second antenna and said jack.

Abstract
A stereophonic magnetic induction sound system is disclosed which has an audio source, two ear pieces, each having an inductive pick-up coil, and a magnetic induction transmitter connected to the audio source and capable of transmitting different signals to the pick-up coils in the two ear pieces. The transmitter may have two or more antennas, a first conductor for transmitting one signal to one of the antennas, a second conductor for transmitting a different signal to the other antenna, and grounds connected to each antenna. The antennas are comprised of a core with a wires coiled about the core and are shaped and positioned on a user'"'"'s neck to, at least partially, selectively transmit their respect signals toward a particular, near-by pick-up coil. A connector or stereophonic jack is used to connect the transmitter to an audio source, and a supporting member secures the antennas around a user'"'"'s neck and restricts movement of the antennas relative to the neck.
