1o DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS
Reference will now be made in detail to the present preferred embodiments of the invention, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings.
Wherever possible, the same reference numbers are used in the drawings and the description to refer to the same or like parts.
Figs. 1, 2 and 3 are the respective front view, top view and bottom view of a cable-spooling casing for spooling earphone transmission cable according to one preferred embodiment of this invention.
The cable-spooling casing 10 of this invention comprises cable-spooling guides 12 and 14. The cable-spooling guide 12 has an exterior surface 16 and an interior 2o surface 18, and the cable-spooling guide 14 similarly has an exterior surface 20 and an interior surface 22. The cable-spooling guide 12 and the cable-spooling guide 14 may both be of the same size or different sizes, and may have an oval shape, a rectangular shape or any other suitable shape.
FILE: 3433.RTF
The interior surfaces 18 and 22 of the respective guides 12 and 14 have protuberances 24 and 26, respectively, such that the size of the protuberance corresponds with the size of the protuberance 26. The guide 12 is joined to the guide 14 through their respective protuberances 24 and 26. The guides 12 and 14 together with their protuberances form the main body of the cable-spooling casing with a cable-spooling groove 32 in the middle for spooling up transmission cable of the earphone.
In addition, the guide 12 has a plurality of slots 34 on its perimeter for positioning the transmission cable coming out from the spool.
At least one clip is installed on the exterior surface 16 of the guide 12..
For to example, two clips 36 and 38 having their opening ends facing each other are mounted onto the exterior surface 16. The clip 36 and clip 38 can be used to fix the location of the transmission cable coming out from the spool near the earphone's end 42 and the plug's end 44, respectively. Fig. 4 is a sketch of the cable-spooling casing showing transmission cable wrapped around its spooling groove with each outlet end passing out from the spool through a slot. The transmission cable near the plug end and the earplugs end are each fixed by a clip to the casing.
Furthermore, on the exterior surface 20 of the guide 14, at least one clamp 40 is installed. Using the clamp 40 to clamp onto any item worn by a user (for example, a leather belt or pockets), the cable-spooling casing 10 can be easily carried.
The clamp 40 can be, for example, a sticky tape, a sticky clip or a suction cup. In addition, the clips 36 and 38 have a saw-tooth profile 46 or a wavy profile (not shown) for preventing the transmission cable from sliding out of the clipped positions.
When the user decides that too much loose transmission cable is outside the casing, excessive length can be wound back into the cable-spooling casing 10.
Since FILE: 3433.RTF
the cable-spooling casing 10 is light and also equipped with a clamp 40, the casing 10 can be fixed onto almost any item worn by the user, such as collar, pocket or belt.
With loose transmission cable returned to the cable-spooling casing 10, a user can freely move his or her body without having to worry about becoming entangled with the cable.
Thus, earplugs will not be so easily pulled out from the ear causing discomfort and then dropped to the floor resulting in damage.
On the other hand, when the user has finished using the earphones, the entire length of the transmission cable can be wound back into the cable-spooling casing 10 for easy carriage as shown in Fig. 4. No matter how long the length of transmission 1 o cable outside the casing, transmission cable near the earphone end 42 and the plugs end 44 can be fixed in position by sliding the cable down the slots 34, and then firmly gripping the cable with clips 36 and 38, respectively.
In summary, one aspect of this invention is the fixing of transmission cable by clips 36 and 38 that have a saw-tooth shaped profile on the exterior surface 16 of the cable-spooling guide 12. Hence, transmission cable near the earphone's end 42 as well as near the plug's end 44 can both be secured. Hence, transmission cable is prevented from slipping from the clips.
Another aspect of this invention is the clamp 40 on the exterior surface 20 of the cable-spooling guide 14. This has the advantage of being able to clamp the cable-2o spooling casing 10 on any items worn by the user, and hence makes its carriage convenient.
A third aspect of this invention is the introduction of slots 34 on the perimeter of the guide 14 so that the cables emanating from the spool can be fixed in position.
The interior surfaces 18 and 22 of the respective guides 12 and 14 have protuberances 24 and 26, respectively, such that the size of the protuberance corresponds with the size of the protuberance 26. The guide 12 is joined to the guide 14 through their respective protuberances 24 and 26. The guides 12 and 14 together with their protuberances form the main body of the cable-spooling casing with a cable-spooling groove 32 in the middle for spooling up transmission cable of the earphone.
In addition, the guide 12 has a plurality of slots 34 on its perimeter for positioning the transmission cable coming out from the spool.
At least one clip is installed on the exterior surface 16 of the guide 12..
For to example, two clips 36 and 38 having their opening ends facing each other are mounted onto the exterior surface 16. The clip 36 and clip 38 can be used to fix the location of the transmission cable coming out from the spool near the earphone's end 42 and the plug's end 44, respectively. Fig. 4 is a sketch of the cable-spooling casing showing transmission cable wrapped around its spooling groove with each outlet end passing out from the spool through a slot. The transmission cable near the plug end and the earplugs end are each fixed by a clip to the casing.
Furthermore, on the exterior surface 20 of the guide 14, at least one clamp 40 is installed. Using the clamp 40 to clamp onto any item worn by a user (for example, a leather belt or pockets), the cable-spooling casing 10 can be easily carried.
