Description

[0001] Accessory Apparatus with Anti-tangle Cable [0002]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an accessory device having an anti-tangle cable, and more particularly to an accessory device capable of preventing tangling by winding a cable in a spiral manner by a slide fastener.

The accessory device usually uses a cable to electrically connect to the host. An accessory device such as an earphone device is electrically connected using an earphone cable to receive a voice signal from a host such as a smart phone, MP3 player, tablet, notebook computer, personal computer, television receiver or FM radio receiver.

Thus, since the cable of the earphone device is formed by twisting a plurality of strands of copper wire, the cable itself is twisted in the unwinding direction, so that the cable itself is easily twisted. In addition, since the earphone cable is long and thin with a length of about 100 to 150 cm and branched into a pair of earbuds on the left and right sides, there is a problem that these branch cables are easily entangled.

As a conventional technique for solving cable entanglement, a reel winding method, a zipper method, and a cable folding method are introduced.

The conventional reel winding method is disclosed in Korean Patent Laid-Open Nos. 2014-0031691, 2004-0092116, 2002-0078001, and U.S. Patent No. 8,560,031. The reel winding method is advantageous in that the cable length can be reduced and neatly arranged, but since it is complicated in structure and bulky, it is difficult to reduce the weight and size.

The conventional zipper system is disclosed in Korean Patent Publication Nos. 2012-0140274, 2009-0041618, 2006-0032593, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2004-56636, U.S. Patent Application Publication No. 2014/0050349, U.S. Patent No. 8,269,111, International Patent Publication No. WO 2014-101317, WO 2012-070940 .

Since the conventional zipper type stereo earphone device is a method of zipper coupling from a pair of earbud connection positions to a plug connector, the cable itself can be prevented from being twisted, but the entire length of the cable, for example, 100 to 150 cm, And is not shortened. Therefore, if a single cable is long, it is not easy to manage and there is a risk of tangling itself.

The cable folding method is disclosed in Korean Patent Laid-Open Nos. 2011-0094282, 2007-0006715, Korean Utility Model Publication 2000-0013014, Japanese Laid-Open Patent Application No. 2013-62784, US Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 2013/0301864, 2002/0117326,

 The conventional cable folding method has the advantage of reducing the length of the cable by folding and fixing the cable to the cable folder. However, since the cable is overlapped with multiple strands, the cable is visually complicated and the design is poor.

An object of the present invention is to provide an accessory device capable of preventing tangling by winding a cable in a spiral manner by a slide fastener.

It is another object of the present invention to provide an accessory device capable of providing a spirally wound loop to a host holder.

It is a further object of the present invention to provide an accessory device capable of providing a spirally wound internal space into the storage space of cables and accessories.

It is still another object of the present invention to provide an accessory device capable of arbitrarily adjusting the diameter of a spiral wound.

It is still another object of the present invention to provide an accessory device capable of varying the length of the earphone cable by adjusting the number of times the loop is wound.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a wearable accessory device by adjusting the circumferential length of the ring to various sizes such as the wrist, forearm, neck and head of the body.

In order to achieve the above object, the accessory device of the present invention has a cable for electrically connecting the electrical connector for host connection and the conversion device. The apparatus includes a fastener element row including a plurality of first and second fastener elements arranged in the longitudinal direction and protruding in opposite directions to each other, and a slider slidably engaged with the plurality of first and second fastener elements, And an insert pin fixed to the cable adjacent to one side of the fastener element row and engaged with the slider so as to be detachably engaged with an arbitrary second fastener element. Therefore, the insert pin is fitted to the slider, and the first fastener element of the fastener element row is engaged with the arbitrary second fastener element, so that the cable can be formed in a ring shape spirally wound at least once.

In the present invention, the fastener element rows include a plurality of element bodies arranged at regular intervals along the longitudinal direction of the core portion and having first and second side faces facing each other, One fastener element is projected, and a corresponding second fastener element protrudes from the second side.

In the present invention, the insert pin includes a pin-type body and at least one fastener protrusion protruding from at least one of the left and right side surfaces of the body and detachably engaged with the first or second fastener element. Wherein the fastener boss is an asymmetric head portion inserted between the head portions of the pair of fastener elements to be engaged and engaged with the line-joining fastener element and not engaged with the succeeding combination fastener element, and an asymmetric head portion Neck portion.

The apparatus further includes a stopper fixed to the core portion adjacent to the other end of the fastener element row, and the cable is branched to the first branch cable and the second branch cable at the stopper.

In the apparatus of the present invention, the conversion device includes a pair of earbuds each connected to the ends of the first and second branch cables.

In the apparatus of the present invention, the handle of the slider may be provided with a fastener for holding the host.

In the present invention, the inner space portion surrounded by the spirally wound ring can be provided in the accommodating space of the transducer. Also, the outer circumferential surface of the spiral wound loop may have a character, symbol, graphic, or a combination thereof, which is completed by a combination of a plurality of loops. The spiral wound ring can also be provided as a host holder.

In the accessory device according to the above-described embodiments of the present invention, since the cable is wound with the spiral, the length of the cable can be greatly reduced, and tangling can be prevented. In addition, since the spirally wound cable portion has a ring shape or a flexible sleeve shape (sleeve shape), it can be provided as a holder of the host or the space inside the sleeve can be provided as a storage space. In addition, since the size of the spiral wound diameter can be adjusted to any size, it can be wound by matching the size wound on the wrist or the host. Therefore, it is possible to produce a variety of designs in which the cable is wound in a spiral shape, thereby improving the visual design of the accessory device.

However, the effects of the present invention are not limited to the above-mentioned effects, and other effects not mentioned above can be clearly understood by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention.
