JP2724042B2 - Devices to avoid direct contact of mouth and ear with transmitter and receiver of public telephone or private telephone handset - Google Patents

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a device for avoiding direct contact of the mouth and ear with the transmitter and receiver of a public or private telephone handset. The same device can be used indiscriminately for the ear and mouth.

In fact, telephones are increasingly being replaced by mail, which has increased the importance of public telephone booths in everyday life.

By the way, these telephone booths are used by everyone. Considering the amount of use and handling, cleaning and disinfection of the transceiver is clearly inadequate.

Often, some users “spit” while talking.

Thus, their constant handling and "spit-spitting" will eventually lead to:-accumulation of dirt on the handset, and more specifically on the transmitter;-an unpleasant and unhealthy odor (transmitter-receiver); -Induces complete hygiene which can cause the propagation of microorganisms such as viruses which become severe during epidemics such as influenza, angina and colds;

Already in this field:-a metallic handset based on French patent FR-A485239 (Oranie), in the form and dimensions of a handset that can be detachably fixed and disinfected on the handset by means of an elastic system or the like; Protective device for a handset consisting of a disc;-according to French patent FR-A1596574 (Pladier), consisting of a receiver for the handset, a sterile material disc on the case of the microphone or on the case of the stand-alone handset, Device for disinfecting filters to effect a modification of the receiving part of the handset;-according to DE-A 2 344 727 (Carlsberg), a circular plug for mounting the filter and its disinfectant being able to soak the filter Have the upper closure part on the outside (part), use a suitable small tool such as pliers to pull out this closure part That requires some like, covering the transmission and reception dexterity telephone, it is known.

To compensate for these drawbacks, the present invention takes the form of a fork that can be removably fixed on the receiver or transmitter of the handset without changing or improving the handset (transmitter-receiver). For the purpose of a device for avoiding direct mouth and ear contact with the transmitter and receiver of a handset or private telephone handset of the type consisting of a protective device with holes or slots with fasteners I have. The device consists of a two-part case that encloses disinfecting and deodorizing particles or filters. One of the two components has a slight inward in-use position, i.e., when the stop is deployed as shown in FIG. 1, to help tighten the central portion M of the handset (FIG. 1). There is a hinged stop with a curved end, and on one of the outer surfaces is unused or tied-up position, ie when the stop is folded (FIG. 2), for storing this stop. It has a hollow.

According to a preferred-embodiment, the device can be made of plastic material in a single injection molding operation.

According to the invention, one of the two components of the case
One is provided with a hinged stop which can be hooked on the central part of the telephone handset by elastic deformation of the component material.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS The invention will be better understood from the following description, given solely with reference to the accompanying drawings, given by way of reference.

 In the drawings, FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the case in a use position.

FIG. 2 is a front view showing the case which is not used or is in a position at the time of clearing.

FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken along line III-III in FIG.

The device consists of a case consisting of two components, designated 1 and 3, respectively, in which disinfecting and deodorizing particles or filters 2 are housed.

According to the invention, part 3 of the case, called the "cover", is provided with a hinged stop 6.

According to one embodiment, the stop 6 has a fork 7 with its end folded inward at 7a.

The stop 6 constitutes a fixing mechanism of the case 1-3 on a normal handset, which has a branch of the fork 7 capable of clamping the central part M of the handset (FIG. 1).

Installation and removal of the case is performed by elastic deformation of the material forming the fork 7.

Preferably, the part 6 is connected between the wings 8 of the hinge integrated with the cover 3 and can be elastically fitted laterally into a receptacle provided in the inner surface of the wing 8. It has a pivot 9. For this purpose, the stop 6 has a notch 10 (FIG. 2).

In the clearing position, the stops 6, 7 are accommodated in a cutout 11 provided in the outer surface of the cover 3.

It is to be understood that the invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments illustrated, but rather contemplates any variations in shape and dimensions.

Claims (1)

(57) [Claims] 1. A hole fixed to a fork-shaped stop which can be removably fixed on a handset receiver or transmitter without changing or improving the handset (transmitter-receiver). Also, in a device for avoiding direct contact between the mouth and ear of the transmitter and the receiver of the handset of a public telephone or a private telephone of the type constituted by a protective device having a slit, the protective device may be disinfected. It consists of a case consisting of two components (1-3) that contain the deodorant particles (2), one of the two components being a hinge wing (8) integrated with this component; ), There is a stop (6) connected thereto, and this stop (6)
When the stop is deployed (the device is in the use position), it takes the form of a fork (7) with a slightly curved inward end (7a) intended to clamp the central part M of the handset. That one of the outer surfaces of this one component
On the top, when the stopper (6-7-7a) is folded (the device is in the non-use position or clearing position), there is a hollow (11) for storing the stopper. An apparatus characterized by the above.
