Headset with earphones configured for connection to electronic device

Description

FIG. 1 is a front perspective view of a headset configured for connection to an electronic device showing my new design, the headset having beads that are selectively moveable to a desired location along the lengths of the cords, enabling the cords to be retained in a desired position about the neck of the user; and,

FIG. 2 is a front elevational view thereof, all sides opposite the sides shown of the earphones are a mirror image, the opposite sides of the microphone and volumn controller are plane and unornamented, and the opposite sides of the controller and junction are plane and unornamented.

The objects shown in broken, phantom lines are provided for environmental purposes only and form no part of the claimed design. The pairs of closely spaced, adjacent separation lines shown along the lengths of the cords of the headset indicate that, for ease of illustration, the precise lengths of the cords of the headset are not claimed. The closely spaced, adjacent lines at the separation points along the cords form no part of the claimed design, but serve as separation marks to indicate that, for ease of illustration, the precise lengths of the cords of the headset are not claimed.

Claims
