Thesecond part 21B is displaced in the axis direction of the releasingmember 22. - As shown in the drawing, the
first part 21A of the engagingmember 21 includes an attachinghole 21E, and an attaching member (screw) 18 inserted into the attaching hole is attached to an attachingcounterpart 16E of the connectingpart 16 such that thefirst part 21A is fixed to the inside of the connectingpart 16. On the other hand, thesecond part 21B of the engagingmember 21 is attached to afirst flange part 22A provided at the end part of the releasingmember 22 by an attachingmember 22E. - The
second part 21B of the engagingmember 21 includes an engaging part 21B1, which is engaged with an engaging counterpart 13A1, which is arranged inside the connectingpart 16. A part of the first sidepressure supplying member 13 has the engaging counterpart 13A1. The engaging counterpart 13A1 is provided at theend part 13A of the first sidepressure supplying member 13. - The engaging counterpart (recessed part) 13A1 provided at the end part13A of the first side
pressure supplying member 13 includes a recessed cross-sectional shape toward the inside of theend part 13A. In contrast, the engaging part 21B1 of the engagingmember 21 includes a cross-sectional shape, which is folded from thesecond part 21B in the axis direction of theend part 13A of the first sidepressure supplying member 13 to the axis direction of the releasingmember 22. - The releasing
member 22 includes one end part arranged inside the connectingpart 16 and the other end part arranged outside the connectingpart 16, and the one end part of the releasingmember 22 is connected with thesecond part 21B of the engagingmember 21. And, the releasingmember 22 includes afirst flange part 22A connected with thesecond part 21B of the engagingmember 21, asecond flange part 22B opposite the inner side face of the connectingpart 16, and a release-operatingpart 22C arranged outside the connectingpart 16. A release-operatingpart 22C passes through the inside of thehole part 16A of the connectingpart 16 and projects to the outside. Further, the outer diameter of thesecond flange part 22B is larger than the inner diameter of thehole part 16A. Thereby, thesecond flange part 22B functions as retaining that allows the release-operatingpart 22C to project outside the connectingpart 16 by a predetermined length. - The releasing
member 22 includes apole part 22D between thefirst flange part 22A and thesecond flange part 22B, and thepole part 22D has a face opposing theend part 13A of the first sidepressure supplying member 13, which is provided on the side of the connectingpart 16. When theend part 13A of the first sidepressure supplying member 13 is inserted into the insertinghole part 16B of the connectingpart 16, the tip of theend part 13A has contact with the face of thepole part 22D of the releasingmember 22, thus the length of theend part 13A inserted into the connectingpart 16 is defined. Further, as shown inFig. 4 , when the tip of theend part 13A has contact with thepole part 22D, the engaging part 21B1 of the engagingmember 21 is engaged with the engaging counterpart 13A1 of theend part 13A. Further, when theend part 13A is attached to the connectingpart 16, theend part 13A may have contact with thepole part 22D or a given interval may be provided between theend part 13A and thepole part 22D. - The
end part 13A of the first sidepressure supplying member 13 includes an inclined face 13A2. This inclined face 13A2 is configured such that the outer diameter of theend part 13A is decreased from the engaging counterpart 13A1 to the tip of theend part 13A. On the other hand, thesecond flange part 22B has an inclined face 22B1 opposite the inclined face 13A2 provided at theend part 13A of the first sidepressure supplying member 13. This inclined face 22B1 is configured to have contact with the inclined face 13A2. For example, the inclined face 22B1 has a face along the inclined face 13A2. - The inside of the connecting
part 16 has a space that allows the engagingmember 21 and the releasingmember 22 to be displaced. When the release-operatingpart 22C of the releasingmember 22 is pressed, a part of the releasingmember 22 is displaced in the space inside the connectingpart 16. In response to the displacement of the part of the releasingmember 22, thesecond part 21B of the engagingmember 21 attached to thefirst flange part 22A of the releasingmember 22 is displaced against thefirst part 21A. In response to the displacement of thesecond part 21B, the engagement between the engaging part 21B1 of the engagingmember 21 and the engaging counterpart 13A1 provided at theend part 13A of the first sidepressure supplying member 13 is released. Further, the engagement between the engaging part 21B1 and the engaging counterpart 13A1 is released, while the displacement of the releasingmember 22 in the direction from thesecond flange part 22B to thefirst flange part 22A causes theend part 13A of the first sidepressure supplying member 13 to be displaced in the direction from the inside to the outside of the connectingpart 16. That is, the displacement of the releasingmember 22 causes the inclined face 22B1 provided at thesecond flange part 22B of the releasingmember 22 to have contact with the inclined face 13A2 provided at theend part 13A of the first sidepressure supplying member 13, and the contact between the inclined face 22B1 and the inclined face 13A2 and the displacement of the releasingmember 22 causes theend part 13A of the first sidepressure supplying member 13 to be pushed toward the outside of the connectingpart 16. - The headphone 1 may have a plurality of different first side
pressure supplying members 13. As plurality of the first sidepressure supplying members 13, for example, the cross-sectional shape for one of the first sidepressure supplying members 13 may have an outer diameter larger than that for another one of the first sidepressure supplying members 13. In this example, the outer shapes (curving diameters) of the first sidepressure supplying members 13 may be substantially equal to each other, or the outer shapes (curving diameters) of the plurality of the first sidepressure supplying members 13 may be changed to be different from each other. With the cross-sectional shapes or the outer shapes of the first side pressure supplying members configured to be different each other, the bending rigidities of the first sidepressure supplying members 13 are different each other, thereby the side pressures of the plurality of the first sidepressure supplying members 13 can be altered. Further, as described above, the positions of a pair of thesound emitting parts 10 with respect to the ears of a user is changed in accordance with the position change of the positioning headband with respect to the second sidepressure supplying member 14. In this case, a side pressure can be adjusted by attaching the first sidepressure supplying member 13 that is suited to the user to the connectingpart 16, even if the side pressure of thesound emitting parts 10 for ears of the user is changed. - According to the headphone 1 as configured above, the
end part 13A of the first sidepressure supplying member 13 is inserted into the insertinghole part 16B of the connectingpart 16, and thereby the engaging part 21B1 of the engagingmember 21 is engaged with the engagingcounterpart 13 A1 of theend part 13A. When replacing a first sidepressure supplying member 13 with the one, which is selected from a plurality of the first sidepressure supplying members 13 so as to supply a preferable side pressure for the user, theend part 13A of the first sidepressure supplying member 13 can be easily removed from the connectingpart 16 by pressing the release-operatingpart 22C of the releasingmember 22. - As such, the adhesive property between the
sound emitting part 10 and the ears of a user can be preferably improved by selecting a first sidepressure supplying member 13, which is suited to the user. Also, the cumbersome replacement operation of the first sidepressure supplying member 13 can be resolved by the easy attachment and removal of the first sidepressure supplying member 13. - The headphone 1 according to the embodiment of the present invention includes the aforementioned removable part of the first side
pressure supplying member 13 as well as a vibration preventing part, which prevents the vibration of the speaker unit from being transmitted to theheadband part 12.Figs. 5 and6 are views illustrating the vibration preventing part of the headphone according to the embodiment of the present invention. - In the headphone 1, the

The coveringmember 10B may be configured with a metal member having a plurality of hole parts. - Both end parts of the supporting
arm part 11 is connected withhousing 10A via an attachingmember 19 having a pole part and a flange part. The attachingmember 19 may be fixed to the supportingarm part 11. If the supportingarm part 11 is fixed to the attaching member19, the supportingarm part 11 is rotatably connected with thesound emitting part 10 via a rod-shaped member inserted into the hole part of theattachment member 19 and arranged inside thehousing 10A. The attachingmember 19 and the rod-shaped member are configured with a metal member. Also, thehousing 10A includes an attaching hole 10A1 in which the attachingmember 19 is arranged. Thefirst resin member 3 is provided so as to cover the periphery of this attachingmember 19. Thefirst resin member 3 has a hole into which the attachingmember 19 is inserted. The attachingmember 19 is inserted into the hole of thisfirst resin member 3 and thefirst resin member 3 is placed between the supportingarm part 11 and thehousing 10A, and thereby the vibration transmitted from thespeaker unit 2 to the supportingarm part 11 can be reduced by thefirst resin member 3. That is, the vibration generated by thespeaker unit 2 can be prevented from being transmitted to the supportingarm part 11. - Further, the covering
member 10B is attached to the backside of the speaker unit 2 (opposite to sound emission side) via aspacer 10D, and asecond resin member 4 is fitted in the attachingcounterpart 2A arranged on the backside of the speaker unit 2 (opposite side with respect to sound emission side), and thespacer 10D and the covering member10B are attached via thissecond resin member 4.
