Incoming/outgoing-talk unit and incoming-talk unit
First Claim
1. An eye-glasses type accessary unit for a mobile telephone, the eye-glasses type accessary unit arranged for attaching to an ear having a base and an auricle that includes an inner side to collect incoming sound into an external auditory meatus and that includes an outer side opposite the inner side, the eye-glasses type accessary unit comprising:
- a pair of temples for a right ear and a left ear arranged to come up against the bases of the right ear and the left ear, respectively;
a cartilage conduction vibration source within at least one of the temples,an outgoing-talk unit, anda unit for performing short-range wireless communication with the mobile telephone,wherein the cartilage conduction vibration source transmits vibration to the outer side of the cartilage of the base of the ear close to an inner entrance of the external auditory meatus by means of direct contact of the one of the temples to the outer side of the cartilage of the base of the ear without an audio source on the inner side of the auricle in a state where the eye-glasses type accessary unit is put on without crushing the auricle, and wherein the transmitted vibration generates air conduction sound from the inner wall of the external auditory meatus for transmission to the tympanic membrane.

Abstract
The present specification discloses an incoming/outgoing-talk unit having an ear-hook unit, a cartilage conduction vibration unit that makes contact with ear cartilage in a state where the hook unit is hooked to the ear, an outgoing-talk unit, and a unit for performing short-range wireless communication with the mobile telephone. Further disclosed is an incoming-talk unit having an ear-hook unit, and a cartilage conduction vibration unit for transmitting cartilage conduction from outside of ear cartilage in a state where the hook unit is hooked to the ear. Also disclosed is an incoming-talk unit having a three-dimensional viewing adjustment unit, a temple having a unit for adjusting contact of eyesight-adjusting eyeglasses with the temple when the unit is superposedly mounted on the eyesight-adjusting eyeglasses; and an audio information output unit provided to the temple.

7. An eye-glasses type hearing unit for attaching to an ear having a base and an auricle that includes an inner side to collect incoming sound into an external auditory meatus and that includes an outer side opposite the inner side, the eye-glasses type hearing unit comprising:
-
a pair of temples for a right ear and a left ear, respectively, each temple for contacting to the outer side of the base of a respective one of the ears; and a vibration source within at least one of the temples for transmitting vibration to at least one of the pair of temples to cause vibration transmission to outer side of the cartilage of the base of the ear close to an inner entrance of the external auditory meatus by means of direct contact of the one of the temples to the outer side of the cartilage of the base of the ear without an audio source on the inner side of the auricle in a state when the eye-glasses type hearing unit is put on without crushing the auricles, and wherein the transmitted vibration generates air conduction sound from the inner wall of the external auditory meatus for transmission to the tympanic membrane. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13)
