1 part.

Therefore, according to the present invention, by rotating the handset downward using the engaging recess and the fixed engaging claw as a fulcrum in the engaged state, the engaging recess is movable for engaging against the elasticity of the spring. At the same time as it engages with the claw, the recess for horizontal movement restriction and the protrusion fit together, and the handset is released upward by the engagement of the engagement recess and the fixed engagement claw and the engagement of the engagement recess and the movable engagement claw. The handset can be prevented from moving in the horizontal direction and detached from the handset by fitting the horizontal movement regulating portion and the protrusion, and can be held in a locked state. When using the handset, the handset is rotated upward using the engagement portion between the engagement recess and the fixed engagement claw as a fulcrum, and the engagement recess is detached from the movable engagement claw against the elasticity of the spring. At the same time, the recess and protrusion for regulating horizontal movement are released, and the handset is unlocked.
The handset can be removed from the handset mount. Since the movable engaging pawl is rotatably supported, it is possible to prevent the handset from coming off upward even if the spring pressure to be applied is set weak, and it is possible to prevent the handset from moving upward. This allows it to be removed from the handset mount.

EXAMPLES Hereinafter, examples of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

1 and 2 show a handset mounting device according to an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 1 is a perspective view of the handset before it is mounted on the handset mount, and FIG. 2 is a perspective view of the handset before it is mounted on the handset mount. FIG.

In Figures 1 and 2, 1 is a handset mount fixed on a console box (not shown), etc.;
is a handset that is removably mounted on a handset mount l. In the handset mount 1, side plates 4 are connected to three sides of a box-shaped bottom plate 3, and a housing part 6 is formed with the negative side open so that a receiver part 5 of a handset 2 can be housed therein. A fixed engagement claw 7 is protruded from the upper center of the side plate 4 of the handset mount 1 on the side opposite to the open part, and a movable engagement claw 8 is protruded from the center of the open end of the bottom plate 3. has been done. The fixed engagement claw 7 and the movable engagement claw 8 are oriented such that their tips face inward, and the movable engagement claw 8 is set at a lower position than the fixed engagement claw 7. The movable engaging claw 8 has its base connected to the bottom plate 3.
It is rotatably supported by a shaft 9 inside, and the distal end side is rotated so that it approaches the engagement fixing claw 7 as shown by arrow C or moves away from it as shown by arrow. A spring 10 is fitted to the shaft 9, and one side of the spring 1o is a movable engaging claw 8.
The other side of the spring 10 is locked to the fixed part 11 in the bottom plate 3, and the elasticity of the spring 10 causes the tip of the movable engagement claw 8 to move as shown by arrow C into the fixed engagement claw. 7
Pressure is applied to the side. A protrusion 12 for regulating horizontal movement is integrally provided on the bottom plate 3, located slightly inward of the movable engaging claw 8. On the other hand, at the outer end of the receiver part 5 of the handset 2, there is a retaining recess 1 that can be engaged with the engaging fixing claw 7.
3 is formed, and an engaging recess 15 that can engage with the movable engaging claw 8 is formed on the transmitting part 14 side of the receiving part 5, and a position slightly closer to the engaging recess 16 than the engaging recess 18 is formed. A recess 16 for horizontal movement regulation is formed in which the protrusion 12 for horizontal movement regulation can be fitted.

The above configuration will be described in more detail below along with its operation.

First, as shown in FIG. 2, by engaging the engagement portion 5 of the handset 2 with the engagement fixing claw 7 of the handset mount 1, and rotating the transmitting section 14 side of the handset 2 downward. , the receiver 5 side passes through with the movable engagement claw 8 released in the direction of the arrow against the elasticity of the spring 10, stores the receiver 5 in the storage section 6, and opens the recess 16 for regulating horizontal movement. It fits into the protrusion 12 for regulating horizontal movement. When the engaging recess 15 of the handset 2 faces the engaging movable pawl 8, the engaging movable pawl 8 rotates in the direction of arrow C due to the elasticity of the spring 10 and engages with the engaging recess 15. Therefore, when the car is running, the engaging recesses 13 and 15 of the handset 2 are prevented from engaging with the fixed engaging claw 7 and the movable engaging claw 8 of the handset mounting base 1 against vertical vibrations, shocks, etc. The handset 2 can be held in a locked state by fitting the recess 16 for horizontal movement restriction into the horizontal movement restriction protrusion 12 of the handset mount 1 against stress in the front and rear horizontal directions. The handset 2 can be held in the locked state by the engagement and fitting of the above-mentioned parts against stress in the left and right directions, and the handset 2 can be held in the handset mount due to vibrations or impacts while the car is running. It is possible to prevent it from going beyond l.

On the other hand, when using the handset 2, the transmitting section 1 of the handset 2
By grasping the 4th side and forcibly rotating it upward,
The movable engagement claw 8 is released in the direction of the arrow against the elasticity of the spring 10, the engagement recess 15 is separated from the movable engagement claw 8, and the horizontal movement restriction recess 16 is moved to the horizontal movement restriction protrusion. 12, the handset 2
can be unlocked. Thereafter, by separating the engagement recess 13 from the engagement fixed claw 7,
As shown in FIG. 1, the handset 2 can be removed from the handset mount 1.

As described above, since the movable engagement claw 8 is supported so as to be able to move once, the force of the spring 10 that pressurizes the movable engagement claw 8 and holds the handset 2 in the locked state is due to vibrations while the handset 2 is running. It is set to a strength that can be held sufficiently against shocks, etc., so that when the transmitter section 14 side of the handset 2 is rotated upward, the movable engagement claw 8 can easily escape in the direction of arrow D. By providing a draft angle to the movable engagement claw 8, the handset 2 can be attached to the handset mount 1 without having to provide a button for removing the handset 2 as in the conventional case.
It can be easily attached and detached from the

Note that the engagement fixing claw 7 may be provided on the handset 2 side, and the engagement recess 13 may be formed on the handset mount 1 side. The present invention can be modified in various other ways without departing from its basic technical idea.

Effects of the Invention As described above, according to the present invention, by rotating the handset downward using the engaging recess and the engaging fixed claw as a fulcrum in the engaged state, the retaining recess is moved by the elasticity of the spring. At the same time, the movable engagement claw engages with the movable engagement claw, and the horizontal movement regulating recess and the protrusion are engaged, and the engagement recess and the fixed engagement claw engage, and the engagement recess and the movable engagement claw engage with each other. The fitting of the horizontal movement regulating recess and the protrusion prevents the handset from moving in the horizontal direction and leaving the handset in the locked state. When using the handset, the handset is rotated upward using the engagement portion between the engagement recess and the fixed engagement claw as a fulcrum, and the engagement recess is detached from the movable engagement claw against the elasticity of the spring. At the same time, the recess and protrusion for regulating horizontal movement are separated, the handset is unlocked, and the handset can be removed from the handset mount. Since the movable engaging pawl is rotatably supported, it is possible to prevent the handset from coming off upward even if the applied spring pressure is set weakly, and it is also possible to prevent the handset from turning upward. This allows it to be removed from the handset mount. Therefore, the operability of attaching and detaching the handset can be improved, and the configuration can be simplified and costs can be reduced.
