Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to a telephone directory holder that allows a telephone directory in a public telephone to be installed in a state where it is easy to use and does not get in the way.

[Prior Art] Conventionally, the telephone directory of a public telephone is installed on a shelf or the like inside the telephone box in the case of a box-type public telephone, but the telephone directory of a public telephone mounted on a telephone stand supported by a pole is not enough. Due to the lack of installation space, it is almost impossible to install one, and especially in areas with a large number of subscribed telephones, the telephone directory spans multiple volumes, so the above-mentioned pole-supported public telephones only contain the telephone directory for the relevant area. was difficult to install.

Even if you install a shelf etc. around a bipedal public telephone and install the necessary telephone directory, if you also install a support stand to spread out the telephone directory and check it, the area around the aisle etc. The problem was that it got in the way.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, and makes it easy to use a necessary number of telephone directories in a pole-supported public telephone without disturbing the surrounding area. The present invention provides a telephone directory holder that can be installed in any state.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve the above object, the telephone directory holder of the present invention has a fixing part fixed to a post on which a telephone is mounted and a telephone directory hanging part at the upper end. A rotating arm that is rotatably attached to the front of the fixed part, a biasing device that always urges the rotating arm upward, and a biasing device that always pushes the rotating arm upward when the rotating arm is rotated to a predetermined angle. a swivel for stopping the swivel from rotating;
- It has a release mechanism for releasing the collar.

In such a telephone directory holder, if the rotating arm part and the fixed part are formed separately, and the rotating arm part is formed so that it can be locked and connected to the fixed part by an appropriate locking means, it is possible to connect the rotating arm part to the fixed part. It is desirable that one person can perform the height adjustment of the fixed part and the connection of the rotating arm part and the fixed part, making the installation easy.

Further, it is preferable that the above-mentioned fixing part is formed from a pair of split fixing parts that sandwich the outer circumferential surface of the support column from both sides, since the height of the fixing part can be easily adjusted.

In addition, if a release mechanism for releasing the stopper is provided near the phone book holder so that it is activated when the phone book is returned to its original holder, the phone can be used without any special operation. It is desirable to be able to automatically return the rotating arm to its original position by activating the release mechanism simply by returning the book, thereby preventing forgetting to return the rotating arm.

[Function] According to the telephone directory holder configured as described above, the telephone directory is suspended by being fixed to the pole on which the public telephone is mounted, so that the space below the public telephone can be used to hold many telephone directories. At the same time, when using the phone book, you can pull the phone book close to your hand by rotating the rotating arm forward and pulling it out. At this time, the stopper moves above the rotating arm. This prevents the rotating arm from returning unexpectedly, allowing you to use the phone book in a stable state. When the mechanism is activated, the rotating arm is urged upward by the urging device and automatically returns to its original upright position, thereby storing the telephone directory in the space below the public telephone. It is.
