Headset

A headset in accordance with an embodiment of the present technology includes a headpiece, an earpiece, an arm extending therebetween, and a cord extending through the arm. The arm includes elongate first and second segments through which the arm is operably connected to the earpiece and the headpiece, respectively. The first and second segments have a telescoping arrangement such that the arm is movable between a lengthened state and a shortened state. The arm further includes a hinge operable to rotate the arm about an axis and thereby move the arm relative to the headpiece between a folded state and an unfolded state. Increased slack in the cord preferentially gathers within an interior region of the second segment when the arm moves from the lengthened state toward the shortened state and when the arm moves from the folded state toward the unfolded state.

A headset in accordance with an embodiment of the present technology includes a headpiece, an earpiece, a yoke rotatably connected to the earpiece, and an arm extending between the yoke and the headpiece. The yoke at least partially defines a channel including a constriction at which a transverse cross-sectional area of the channel is non-circular. The arm includes a foot at least partially disposed within the channel. The foot is shaped to move through the constriction or be blocked from moving through the constriction depending on a rotational position of the arm relative to the yoke. The headset further includes a plug at least partially disposed within the channel. The plug restricts rotation of the arm relative to the yoke and thereby prevents movement of the foot out of the channel and corresponding separation of the arm from the yoke.
