TECHNICAL AREA:

The invention relates to a telephone handset holder that allows the user, the telephone receiver in one on his In a shoulder-supported position while keeping both hands free.

STATE OF THE ART:

As is known, telephone handsets generally do not allow users to make a call without holding one of their hands of the telephone receiver. If the user is on the phone Must view documents or make notes, so is. it forced an uncomfortable posture to try and pick up the listener For example, by tilting the head sharply to pinch it between the shoulder and chin, which is not only impractical, but also is a very tiring process.

Various devices for holding a telephone handset have been made on the shoulder of the user have been proposed, which are designed such that the listener to the ear of this user is pressed and the microphone is in front of his mouth; however, most of the time these devices are not very practical or they are not special aesthetic, and they can interfere with hanging up the handset on the cradle of the telephone set.

In this regard, it is possible to refer to that described in the American patent N ⁰ 2 525 or to the subject matter of the Belgian patent

N ° 552 476 forming device should be noted. ,

EXPLANATION OF THE INVENTION:

The aim of the invention is to provide a telephone receiver receiver for professional or other purposes that is simple, easy ·· and does not take up much space. ..:.

The device according to the invention should be able to be attached to all telephone receivers of conventional design, it should require little space, a light one Allow the handset equipped with it to be grasped and not hinder the handset from being placed on its holding fork.

Furthermore, the device according to the invention is intended to Handset holding hand can be brought into its position of use without the need to interrupt the phone call that has already started.

The inventive telephone listener holding device, which has a Having fastening means for attachment to the receiver equipped elongated base, is characterized in that it has two at the two ends this base has articulated arms, each of which between a pivoted position, in which the arm in question is pivoted on the base, and a position of use in which each of the arms with the The longitudinal axis of the base forms an approximately right angle, is movable, the arms being pivotable about two pins which are fixedly connected to the base and arranged substantially at right angles to one another, while the arm, the pin of which is close to the microphone, one on the user's chest supportable support crutch and the arm, the pin of which is located in the vicinity of the earpiece, a crooked support that can be supported on the neck of the user forms, and elastic means are provided, which strive to each arm from its pivoted position to its position of use

bring, as well as pressure releasable locking means that the Keep arms in the swiveled-in position.

Thus, by simply actuating the locking means, which, as explained below, can be done by means of a single finger, the arms released and under the action of the return means in brought the position of use, with the crook behind the The user's neck is placed against them and the support crutch is placed on it Supports the user's chest.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION:

For a better understanding of the invention, the following follows Description of an embodiment of the device according to the invention, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:

FIG. 1 is an overall view of a specific embodiment of the device according to the invention, specifically in the pivoted-in position and attached to the telephone receiver,

FIGS. 2 and 3 show two views of the device according to FIG. 1, the respective plane of the figure passing through the axis of the base and the arm forming the crutch-shaped support or the arm forming the crooked support is determined

Figure A and 5 are two partial views on a larger scale showing the inventive device in the direction of arrow IV or along the Represent line V-V viewed,

FIG. 6 shows a device according to the invention with a position in use Device equipped telephone receiver shows, Figure 7 shows a section along the line VII-VII in Fig. 1, FIG. 8 shows a section along the line VIII-VIII in FIG.],

FIG. 9 shows a view in the direction of arrow IX in FIG. 7, FIG. 10 shows a view in the direction of the arrow X in FIG. 8, FIG. 1J a view in the direction of the arrow XI in FIG. 7, and FIG FIG. 12 is a view in the direction of arrow XII in FIG.

The device described and illustrated here has a elongated base 1, to the retaining clip ™ 4 for attaching the base to the Telephone receiver B are attached. At the ends of the base 1, two movable arms 2 and 3 are articulated, which are between that shown in FIG Swivel-in position, in which the arms are in contact with the base 1, and the in Fig. 2 to 6 shown position of use are movable. The arm 2 which forms a support crutch supported on the user's chest rotatable about a pin 7 perpendicular to the axis of the base 1, and the arm 3 forming a crooked support 30 supported in the neck of the user is rotatable about a pin 12 which is also perpendicular to the axis of the base. The axes of the pins 7 and 12 are arranged substantially at right angles to one another. Furthermore, each of the axes of the pins 7 and 12 forms an acute angle with the perpendicular 17 of the plane of the base 1 on which the retaining clips 4 are attached.

The crooked support 30 resting against the neck of the user has has an enlarged cross-section and can have a somewhat rough surface which improves the adhesion. The same goes for the end of the Poor 2.

Furthermore, for the purpose of adjusting the position of use, the arm 3 can be designed telescopically in its rectilinear part, as a result of which moreover the space requirement of the device in the swiveled-in position can be reduced

can.

Each of the arms 2 and 3 cooperates with a return spring, endeavors to bring the arm in question into the position of use; this spring can for example be designed as a helical spring housed in the relevant pin 7 or 12, wherein the respective pin for the arm in question is a fixedly connected to the base 1, forming a spring cage for said spring 5 Part 8, as well as a part 18 firmly connected to the associated arm. The parts 8 and 18 of each pin are under friction in separate planes in contact with one another, the shoulders 15 formed by stops in order to limit the opening of the arms with one another are connected. The ends of the coil springs 5 are accommodated in bearings in the parts 8 and 18 of the journals.

An elastic one that holds the arms in their pivoted-in position Bracket 16 is attached to base 1 and receives arm 2 having a suitable recess. This arm also has a hook 14, which picks up and holds the arm 3 in the pivoted position.

Thus, the clamp 16 holds the arm 2, as well as, with the interposition same, the arm 3 firmly. Opening this bracket does this at the same time open both arms.

The device according to the invention is made of any suitable Material made, for example from ZAMAC or PVC or NYLON and vorii ttcls any suitable process, such as a molding process manufactured.

It can be incorporated into the telephone receiver when it is manufactured will.
