Abstract
The invention relates to a seamless pivot for a head-worn audio device. The seamless pivot includes a headband tube for interconnecting an earcup and a headband. The headband tube includes a channel extending from a top surface of the headband tube to an internal detent and an internal cavity of the headband tube. The seamless pivot also includes a spring member. A portion of the spring member is disposed within the channel of the headband tube and configured to allow rotation of the headband tube relative to the portion of the spring member. An end of the spring member terminates within at least one of the internal detent and the internal cavity of the headband tube. A range of the rotation of the headband tube, relative to the portion of the spring member within the channel, is limited by the internal detent of the headband tube.
