ABSTRACT:
An ear tip for use on stethoscopes, audio head sets and similar apparatus is shown having a relatively rigid inner body and an outer flexible soft body that can compress to accommodate outer ear canal configurations in comfort and efficient sealing contact without hinging or folding over so as to restrict sound transmission therethrough. A tubular guiding ferrule configuration insures proper alignment and maintenance of sound transmission efficiency with user comfort.
