DESCRIZIONE DESCRIPTION

Forma oggetto del presente trovato un dispositivo porta apparecchio telefonico agganciabile ad un supporto in forma di fascia o simile. The present invention relates to a telephone set holder device which can be hooked to a support in the form of a band or the like.

E' nota nel settore tecnico delle telecomunicazioni, la necessità di poter disporre di una comoda sede per i telefoni cellulari la quale sia atta a consentire un rapido e sicuro utilizzo sia dell telefono sia dell'auricolare ad esso collegato. It is known in the telecommunications technical sector the need to have a comfortable seat for cellular telephones which is capable of allowing rapid and safe use of both the telephone and the headset connected to it.

Esempi di tale necessità si verificano ad esempio all'interno dei veicoli per i quali la normativa impone, durante la guida, l'utilizzo di dispositivi viva-voce o dell auricolare. Examples of this need occur, for example, in vehicles for which the legislation requires the use of hands-free devices or earphones while driving.

In questo caso si prevedono sedi fisse per agganciare l'apparecchio telefonico al cruscotto della macchina e, nel caso di auricolare, un filo di opportuna lunghezza che consenta di inserire lo spinotto di estremità all'apparecchio fissato al cruscotto e l'auricolare nell'orecchio dell ' utilizzatore; . In this case, fixed seats are provided for hooking the telephone set to the dashboard of the car and, in the case of a headset, a wire of suitable length that allows you to insert the end plug to the appliance fixed to the dashboard and the headset into the ear. of the user; .

Sebbene funzionali questi dispositivi noti obbligano tuttavia ad una eccessiva lunghezza del filo dell'auricolare , filo che tende pertanto a disporsi in modo disordinato e di intralcio al conducente, durante la guida dell'autovettura, distraendo il medesimo al momento dell'utilizzo effettivo del telefono, con grave aumento dei rischi di incidente Although functional, these known devices nevertheless require an excessive length of the earphone wire, a wire which therefore tends to arrange itself in a disordered way and hinder the driver, while driving the car, distracting the same when actually using the telephone. , with a serious increase in the risk of an accident

Si pone pertanto il problema tecnico di realizzare un dispositivo atto a contenere un apparecchio telefonico e il corrispondente auricolare e a determinare un'ordinata disposizione del corrispondente filo di collegamento relativo, facilitando la presa di questi ultimi e rendendo il più possibile ripetibile le mosse di presa/uso/rilascio sia del telefono che dell'auricolare da parte dell'utilizzatore, al fine di ridurre le possibilità di distrazione del medesimo e diminuire il tempo di distacco delle mani dal volante, aumentando conseguentemente le condizioni di sicurezza, come necessario nel caso in cui l'utilizzatore sia ad esempio un conducente di veicoli; analoghe condizioni sono verificabili anche ad esempio per uno scalatore, un tecnico impegnato su un ponteggio o simili. The technical problem therefore arises of providing a device suitable for containing a telephone set and the corresponding earphone and for determining an orderly arrangement of the corresponding relative connection wire, facilitating the grasping of the latter and making the gripping movements as repeatable as possible. use / release of both the telephone and the headset by the user, in order to reduce the possibility of distraction of the same and decrease the time of detachment of the hands from the steering wheel, consequently increasing the safety conditions, as necessary in the event that the user is, for example, a vehicle driver; similar conditions can also be verified, for example, for a climber, a technician working on a scaffolding or the like.

Nell'ambito di tale problema si richiede inoltre che tale dispositivo sia di contenuti ingombri, di facile ed economica produzione, assemblaggio e installazione anche da parte di utilizzatori non specializzati . Within the scope of this problem, it is also required that this device be compact, easy and inexpensive to produce, assemble and install even by non-specialized users.

Tali risultati sono ottenuti secondo il presente trovato da un dispositivo porta apparecchio telefonico comprendente un primo elemento di contenimento dotato di mezzi per l'alloggiamento dell'apparecchio telefonico stesso, un secondo elemento di contenimento dotato di mezzi di alloggiamento di un auricolare, detti mezzi di contenimento essendo dotati di rispettivi elementi di aggancio ad un supporto, atti a consentire la traslazione dei detti elementi di contenimento su detto supporto. These results are obtained according to the present invention by a telephone set-holder device comprising a first containment element equipped with means for housing the telephone set itself, a second containment element equipped with means for housing an earphone, said means of containment elements being provided with respective elements for attachment to a support, suitable for allowing the translation of said containment elements on said support.

Nell'esempio di figura detti mezzi di bloccaggio 13a sono realizzati tramite elementi in velcro Two transversal strips 13 of fabric are constrained to the rear part of the base 11, arranged at a suitable distance in the longitudinal direction and at the end of which relative locking means 13a are provided, so as to determine a substantially ring-like closure of the band. In the example of the figure, said locking means 13a are made by means of Velcro elements

Analogamente , la parte 20 di contenimento dell'auricolare è costituita da una base 21 sulla cui superficie anteriore, a vista, sono disposti un elemento di trattenuta 22 dell'auricolare e una sede 24 associata ad un elemento di fermo 24a, ad esempio attuato tramite una striscia di velcro; alla parte posteriore della base 21 è vincolata una striscia trasversale di tessuto 23 alle cui estremità sono previsti mezzi 23a di bloccaggio relativo, in modo da determinare una chiusura sostanzialmente ad anello della fascia stessa. Similarly, the part 20 containing the earphone consists of a base 21 on the front surface of which, at sight, a retaining element 22 of the earphone and a seat 24 associated with a stop element 24a, for example implemented by means of a a velcro strip; a transverse strip of fabric 23 is constrained to the rear part of the base 21 at the ends of which relative locking means 23a are provided, so as to determine a substantially ring-like closure of the band itself.

Nell'esempio di figura detti mezzi di bloccaggio 23a sono realizzati tramite elementi in velcro. In the example of the figure, said locking means 23a are made by means of Velcro elements.

Il funzionamento del dispositivo è il seguente: The operation of the device is as follows:

nel caso di utilizzo del dispositivo in associazione a una cintura di sicurezza 1 di un veicolo in the case of use of the device in association with a safety belt 1 of a vehicle

si applic il supporto 10 del cellulare 2 alla cintura stessa, ripiegando dietro quest'ultima le fasce trasversali 13 e chiudendo le stesse tramite il velcro 13a; the support 10 of the mobile phone 2 is applied to the belt itself, folding the transversal bands 13 behind the latter and closing the same by means of the velcro 13a;

si appli il supporto 20 dell'auricolare 4 alla cintura stessa in posizione superiore rispetto al porta cellulare 10 e si ripiega dietro quest'ultima la fascia trasversale 23 chiudendo le rispettive estremità una sull'altra tramite il velcro 23a; the support 20 of the earphone 4 is applied to the belt itself in an upper position with respect to the mobile phone holder 10 and the transverse band 23 is folded behind the latter, closing the respective ends one over the other by means of the velcro 23a;

si inserisce il cellulare 2 nella tasca 12 facendo passare il filo 3 dell'auricolare 4 nella sede 14 al cui interno rimane bloccato tramite la chiusura dei mezzi di bloccaggio 14a; si inserisce il filo dell'auricolare nella sede 24 del supporto 20 chiudendo l'elemento di chiusura 24a; the mobile phone 2 is inserted into the pocket 12 by passing the wire 3 of the earphone 4 into the seat 14 inside which it remains blocked by closing the locking means 14a; the earphone wire is inserted into the seat 24 of the support 20 closing the closing element 24a;

si inserìsce l'auricolare 4 nella propria sede 22 the headset 4 is inserted in its seat 22

Come illustrato in figura 4, durante l'utilizzo le fasce trasversali 13 e 23 consentono di traslare il supporto 10 di contenimento del telefono 2 in una posizione di non intralcio per il conducente e il supporto 20 di contenimento dell'auricolare 4 in una posiz , prossima all'orecchio, dalla quale sia facile prelevare l'auricolare stesso per il suo inserimento nel 'orecchio e viceversa. As shown in Figure 4, during use, the transverse bands 13 and 23 allow the support 10 for containing the telephone 2 to be translated into a position that does not hinder the driver and the support 20 for containing the headset 4 in a position. close to the ear, from which it is easy to take the earphone itself for insertion into the ear and vice versa.

Al momento dello sgancio della cintura di sicurezza 1, la stess a viene richiamata dall'arrotolatore (non illustrato) e porterà entrambi i supporti 20 e 10, liberi di traslare, in corrispondenza dello stesso senza tuttavia impedire l'ulteriore scorrimento della cintura fino alla sua normale posizione di riposo, When the safety belt 1 is released, it is recalled by the reel (not shown) and will carry both supports 20 and 10, free to move, in correspondence with the same without however preventing further sliding of the belt up to the his normal sleeping position,

In figura 5, è illustrato un secondo esempio di attuazione si dispositivo secondo il presente trovato in cui si prevede un arrotolatore 115 solidale all base 11 del supporto 10; al detto arrotolatore è associato un filo 115a la cui estremità libera è agganciabile/sganciabile al/dal elemento di contenimento 20 dell'auricolare 4, essendo inoltre previsti mezzi 115b di bloccaggio (di per sé convenzionali e quindi solamente schematizzati in figura e non descritti in dettaglio) atti a determinare il fermo dell 'arrotolatore 115 e quindi del filo 115a. Figure 5 illustrates a second example of embodiment of the device according to the present invention in which a reel 115 integral with the base 11 of the support 10 is provided; associated with said reel is a wire 115a whose free end can be hooked / unhooked to / from the containment element 20 of the earphone 4, locking means 115b being also provided (conventional per se and therefore only schematized in the figure and not described in detail) adapted to determine the stop of the reel 115 and therefore of the thread 115a.

In tale configurazione i due supporti 10 e 20 risultano tra loro vincolati per una più facile manovra e trasporto quando staccati dalla cintura di sicurezza essendo comunque liberi di muoversi l'uno rispetto all'altro quando agganciati alla cintura 1. In this configuration the two supports 10 and 20 are constrained to each other for easier maneuvering and transport when detached from the safety belt, being in any case free to move relative to each other when fastened to belt 1.

Si prevede inoltre che il dispositivo possa essere applicato anche a strisce di tessuto funzionalmente differenti da una cintura di sicurezza quali ad esempio lo spallaccio di uno zaino e/o una imbragatura di sicurezza del tipo usato dagli scalatori di montagna, dagli operai sui ponteggi e simili . It is also envisaged that the device can also be applied to strips of fabric that are functionally different from a safety belt such as for example the shoulder strap of a backpack and / or a safety harness of the type used by mountain climbers, by workers on scaffolding and the like. .

Numerose varianti delle parti componenti possono essere introdotte nell'attuazione pratica del dispositivo, così ad esempio: Numerous variants of the component parts can be introduced in the practical implementation of the device, for example:

-gli elementi di bloccaggio in velcro possono essere sostituiti da bottoni automatici e simili; - i materiali di attuazione delle basi 11,21 dei supporti 10,20 e/o della tasca 12 del supporto 10 possano essore realizzati con vari materiali di differente rigidità, purché funzionali allo scopo. - the Velcro locking elements can be replaced by automatic buttons and the like; - the materials for implementing the bases 11, 21 of the supports 10, 20 and / or of the pocket 12 of the support 10 can be made of various materials of different stiffness, provided they are functional for the purpose.

In particolare si prevede che la tasca porta cellulare possa essere realizzata in materiali plastici stampati nei quali siano integrati gli spinotti di collegamento dell'auricolare con il relativo filo, in tal caso ciascun elemento di contenimento del cellulare sarà specializzato in relazione a quest'ultimo. In particular, it is envisaged that the cell phone holder pocket can be made of molded plastic materials in which the connection pins of the headset with the relative wire are integrated, in which case each cellular containment element will be specialized in relation to the latter.
