Head-mounted display

A head-mounted display includes a main body having a housing defining at least a portion of an exterior of the head mounted display; a built-in display disposed in the housing; a wearing band extending from the main body to a rear side and having a shape enclosing a head of a user as a whole; a right-side extending section configured to make up a right-side part of the wearing band; a left-side extending section configured to make up a left-side part of the wearing band; and a frame which is separate from the housing and constitutes at least a portion of a rear part of the main body, where the frame has left and right openings for receiving left and right lenses, respectively, and a recessed section for accommodating a user's nose when the head-mounted display is worn.

To propose a head-mounted display capable of enhancing convenience with respect to earphones. A head-mounted display () includes: a device main body () with a display device () incorporated therein; a mounting band () which extends toward the rear side from the device main body () and is used for mounting to a user's head; a right earphone holding section (R) which is provided at a right portion of the mounting band () and to and from which a right earphone (R) can be attached and detached; and a left earphone holding section (L) which is provided at a left portion of the mounting band () and to and from which a left earphone (L) can be attached and detached. According to the HMD, the user can recognize the positions of the earphones (R) and (L) without visual confirmation.

A head-mounted display configured to enhance the ease of wearing work and the stability of wearing is provided. A wearing band has an extending section and a movable section that is movable relative to the extending section in the length direction of the wearing band.

Accessory for head-mounted display

A head-mounted display configured to enhance the ease of wearing work and the stability of wearing is provided. A wearing band has an extending section and a movable section that is movable relative to the extending section in the length direction of the wearing band. A locking mechanism is capable of switching the wearing band between an unlocked state in which the movements of the movable section in the extending direction in which the length of the wearing band is increased and in the retracting direction in which the length of the wearing band is decreased are allowed and a locked state in which the movement of the movable section in the extending direction is restricted. The movable section is urged at least in the retracting direction in an unlocked state.
