Application: Securement for an electronic device (Patent ID: US20240210710A1)

The patent filed by Apple Inc. describes an electronic device with a band that has a bifurcated rear portion, allowing for size adjustment and tension force against the user's head. The band includes upper and lower elongate structures with outer and inner tubes, as well as a biasing member like an elastic cord. The inner tubes are anchored to the device, allowing the outer tubes to be moved backward to adjust the band size, with the elastic member providing resistance and tension when the device is worn.

The claims detail the specific components and configurations of the head-mountable display band, including tubular structures with outer and inner tubes, cords within the tubes, and bifurcation points for non-parallel structures. The elastic members within the tubes resist movement for size adjustment, with additional features like tensioners and external electronic components. The band design allows for flexibility, adjustability, and comfort when wearing the electronic device, enhancing the user experience and functionality of the product.
