Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a telephone set, and particularly to a structure of a handset/receiver base portion of a telephone set that can be used both as a tabletop type and a wall-mounted type.

When using a telephone as a tabletop type, the handset/receiver base of the phone is normally configured to be horizontal or slightly inclined, so it is difficult to place the handset/receiver stably on the handset/receiver base. However, if the phone is used as a wall-mounted phone, the handset/receiver part of the phone is vertical or slopes close to vertical, so if the phone is in its original shape, the handset/receiver cannot be placed on the handset/receiver stand. It is not possible to do so, and some kind of handset holding means is required.

As the above-mentioned conventional handset holding means, for example, there is a telephone set in which a projection is fixedly provided on the lower side wall surface of the handset stand on which the handset is placed, and a recess is provided in the handset portion of the handset with which the projection engages. According to such a structure, when the phone is used as a tabletop type, the protrusion is not only useless, but in some cases, when the handset is lifted, the protrusion may be inserted into the recess provided in the handset. It can even become an obstacle when making a call, such as getting caught or when placing the handset, the protrusion may get caught on the handset and prevent it from being placed correctly on the handset stand.

In addition, in order to reduce the above-mentioned disadvantages when used as a tabletop type, the protrusion is made smaller and the recess provided in the handset and receiver is also formed shallowly. However, when such a phone is used as a wall-mounted type, vibrations may cause the phone body to The handset can easily come off, making it impossible to hold it stably.

The present invention proposes a novel handset/receiver hanging structure for a telephone in order to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems.

1 to 5 are diagrams for explaining an embodiment of the present invention, in which FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the main parts of a telephone housing, FIG. 2 is a perspective view of a handset-receiver hanging member,
FIG. 3 is a perspective view of the handset, and FIGS. 4 and 5 are perspective views showing the main parts of the telephone housing when the telephone is used as a tabletop type and a wall-mounted type, respectively.

As shown in FIG. 1, a hook switch button (not shown) is attached to the receiver mounting portion 11, which is formed in a concave shape in the receiver/transmitter stand portion of the housing 1, from the bottom surface 12 to the lower wall surface 13. A space 14 is formed, and a fitting space 15 for the transmitter/receiver hanging member 2 shown in FIG. 2 is formed in a substantially central portion of the lower wall surface 13 in a continuous state with the mounting space 14.
A pair of guide protrusions 16 are formed on both inner side walls of this fitting space 15 (side surfaces of the attachment portion 19 of the handset/receiver hanging member 2) to guide the installation of the handset/receiver hanging member 2 and to define the attachment position. has been done. The guide protrusion 16 does not extend over the entire side wall of the fitting space 15, but is cut in the middle.

Further, a counterbore portion 17 into which the decorative panel 3 is fitted is formed below the handset mounting portion 11 of the housing 1, and a portion of the bottom surface of the counterbore portion 17 is cut out so that the counterbore portion 17 is continuous with the fitting space 15. A space 18 is formed in. This space 18 serves as an escape hole when attaching the transmitter/receiver hanging member 2 to the fitting space 15.

As shown in FIG. 2, the handset/receiver hanging member 2 has a relatively long protrusion 21 and a relatively short embolization part 22 connected in opposite directions and in a stepped manner.
It is formed in a letter shape, and has a protrusion 21 and an embolization part 22.
1 at symmetrical positions on each side end face of
Mounting grooves 23 and 24 are provided one by one.

The decorative panel 3 is formed to have a thickness equal to the depth of the counterbore 17 of the housing 1.

As shown in FIG. 3, the handset 4 usually has a handset part 42 connected to a cord 41 side, a handset part 43 connected to a handle part 44 on the opposite side, and an inside of the handset part 43. A recess 46 is formed in the wall surface 45 and has a shape into which the protrusion 21 of the transmitter/receiver hanging member 2 fits and engages.

The dimensional relationship between the housing 1 and the handset hanging member 2 is as follows. That is, the height a of the embolus portion 22 is set equal to the height c of the attachment portion 19, and the height b of the projection portion 21 is set longer than the height c of the attachment portion 19. Further, in the protrusion 21 and the embolization part 22, the mounting grooves 23 and 24 are provided in an open shape toward the distal end, leaving a height e on each side surface, and the height e is set in the mounting part 19. The length d is set equal to the length d of the portion beyond the reach of the guide protrusion 16 provided on the side surface.

The engagement relationship between the housing 1 and the handset/receiver hanging member 2 when the telephone is used as a tabletop type will be explained with reference to FIG. 4.

If the telephone is a tabletop type, before fitting the decorative panel 3 into the counterbore 17 of the case 1, insert the transmitter/receiver hanging member 2 into the fitting space 15 of the case 1 in its embolization part 22.
With the guide protrusion 16 facing upward, the mounting groove 24 is aligned with the guide protrusion 16, and the plug is fitted in such a direction that the embolus part 22 comes into the fitting space 15. After that, when the decorative panel 3 is fitted into the counterbore 17, the transmitter/receiver hanging member 2 is fixed between the guide protrusion 16 and the upper end surface 31 of the decorative panel 3 due to the above-mentioned dimensional relationship, and the housing is fixed. The embolization part 2 is placed on the handset mounting part 11 of 1.
2 does not protrude. That is, the upper surface of the embolus part 22 forms a horizontal plane that is on the same level as the lower wall surface 13 of the handset rest part 11, and when the telephone is used as a tabletop type, the handset hanging member 2 is placed in the fitting space. It is used as a plug member to fill the 15. Further, at this time, the protrusion 21 of the handset hanging member 2 is hidden inside the housing 1 by the decorative panel 3 and is not visible from the outside.

Next, the engagement relationship between the housing 1 and the handset/receiver hanging member 2 when the telephone is used as a wall-mounted telephone will be explained with reference to FIG.

If the telephone is wall-mounted, before fitting the decorative panel 3 into the counterbore 17 of the housing 1, place the handset hanging member 2 into the fitting space 15 of the housing 1 with its protrusion 21 facing upward. The guide protrusion 16 is aligned with the mounting groove 23, and the guide protrusion 16 is fitted in such a direction that the protrusion 21 comes into the fitting space 15. After that, when the decorative panel 3 is fitted into the counterbore 17, the transmitter/receiver hanging member 2 is fixed between the guide protrusion 16 and the upper end surface 31 of the decorative panel 3 due to the above-mentioned dimensional relationship, and the housing is fixed. The above-mentioned protrusion 21 protrudes from the lower wall surface 19 of the receiver mounting portion 11 of No. 1 . The length of the protrusion is "b-c" from the above-mentioned dimensional relationship. When the telephone is used as a wall-mounted telephone in this manner, the handset/receiver hanging member 2 fills the fitting space 15 and also partially fills the fitting space 15 (the portion with the dimensions “b-c” above).
is used as a member that protrudes and hooks and supports the handset/receiver 4. Further, at this time, the embolization part 22 of the handset hanging member 2 is hidden inside the housing 1 by the decorative panel 3 and is not visible from the outside.

Further, the recess 46 of the handset 4 is formed in such a shape and depth that it fully engages with the protruding portion of the projection 21 of the handset hanging member 2.

As explained above, according to the present invention, the protrusion for hanging the handset comes out in the handset mounting space only when the phone is used as a wall-mount type, so the phone can be used as a tabletop type. In this case, there are no unnecessary protrusions, so the handset hanging member does not become an obstacle to the operation of raising and lowering the handset. In addition, when using the phone as a wall-mount type, the height of the protrusion for hanging the handset/receiver can be set to a sufficient height since there is no need to consider the above-mentioned case of using the phone as a table-top type. This provides a handset/receiver hanging structure that does not easily dislodge due to vibrations, etc., and ensures reliable operation of the switch when used as a portable telephone. As described above, the present invention has various advantages and its effects are extremely large.
