Rockin’ (Design) Patent – Bang & Olufsen’s “Subwoofer”

  • Rockin’ (Design) Patent: US Design Patent No. 634,733
  • Filed: 18 February 2010
  • In the name of: Bang & Olufsen A/S
  • Title: Subwoofer
  • What’s claimed: “The ornamental design for a subwoofer, as shown and described”
  • Why this (design) patent rocks: this is a ‘design patent’ (aka registered design) rather than a ‘utility patent’. It therefore relates to the appearance of a product rather than how it works as such. The design shown in this design patent seems to correspond to Bang & Olufsen’s BeoLab 11 subwoofer.
