Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an accessory to enable 'hands-free' use of a mobile telephone.
  • the present invention relates to a personal portable hands-free device for mobile phones utilising a retractable cord, and, to a wireless personal portable hands-free device for mobile telephones.
  • the cord can often prove an obstruction to many tasks when the mobile phone is not in use. To overcome this obstruction many users wind the cord around the mobile phone to prevent the cord from snagging on various objects. The next time the hands-free device is required the coil of cord must be unwound prior to use of the mouth and ear speakers.
  • This problem identifies a need for a device that provides the benefits of the current hands-free devices for mobile phones whilst removing the obstructing cord when the phone is not in use.
  • the present invention seeks to provide a hands-free device for mobile phones that has mouth and ear pieces separate from the mouth and ear pieces of the mobile phone.
  • the present invention provides a telephone accessory device including a cord having a microphone and earpiece at a free end thereof, and which is adapted to retract into a housing and onto a retraction means.
  • said housing is embodied in a separate casing adapted to plug into a socket provided in a telephone casing.
  • said housing is formed integrally within a casing of a telephone.
  • said housing is embodied in a spearate casing adapted to be connected by a wireless communications channel to said telephone.
  • said telephone is a mobile telephone.
  • said retraction means is a spring tension mechanism, or other mechanically biased mechanism.
  • said retraction means retracts said cord in a spool-like manner.
  • said retraction mechanism includes a locking means to prevent automatic retraction of said cord.
  • said retraction means is driven by an electric motor or the like.
  • said microphone and earpeice are adapted to be housed within said device or telephone, or be hooked or otherwise retained on said device or said telephone.
  • Figure 2 illustrates a further preferred embodiment of the invention
  • Figure 3 illustrates a further preferred embodiment of the invention.
  • the retractable hands-free device for mobile phones 1 embodied as a mobile phone attachment comprises a spring tension mechanism 2 which retracts the cord when a locking mechanism 5 is released.
  • the cord and spring mechanism are both attached to a fixing 3 which provides neat storage of the cord and allows the cord to be locked when the desired length of cord protrudes from the device 1.
  • the casing for the accessory form of the retractable hands-free device for mobile phones 1 also comprises the electronic circuitry 6 necessary for use with an existing mobile phone.
  • the hands-free device 1 is fixed to the mobile phone by a mechanical means such as the locking pins 7 suitable for certain types of mobile phone accessory ports.
  • FIG. 2 Another preferred embodiment of the present invention is shown in figure 2.
  • the retraction mechanism is integrally formed within the casing of a mobile phone 8.
  • the cord may be pulled out and set at the desired length using the locking button 5.
  • the mouth piece 9, earpiece 10, and cord fixing clip 11, then act in the usual manner of a hands-free device for mobile phones.
  • the stored potential energy in the spring mechanism 2 is utilised to pull the cord inside the phone.
  • the phone may be provided with a clipping mechanism recess, or a housing to receive the ear and mouth pieces in a manner such that it is not loosely attached to the phone.
  • FIG 3 Yet another preferred embodiment of the present invention is shown in figure 3.
  • the mouth and ear pieces have no electrical connection to the mobile phone.
  • a transmitting device 12 integrally formed within, or attached to, a mobile phone
  • an electromagnetic signal 13 is received by an antenna wire 14.
  • An alternatively preferred embodiment is to incorporate the mouth and ear pieces into a headset embodiment which may be more comfortable to wear for extended periods and/or which may be easier to take on and off.

Abstract

L'invention concerne un dispositif (1) accessoire pour téléphone comprenant un câble (4) équipé d'un microphone (9) et d'un écouteur (10). Le câble (4) peut être rétracté dans un boîtier et s'enrouler autour de moyens de rétraction (2). Le boîtier peut être un élément séparé ou peut être logé dans le corps du téléphone. Le dispositif peut être connecté à un téléphone via une liaison par fil ou sans fil. Les moyens de rétraction (2) peuvent former un dispositif mécanique, tel qu'un mécanisme de tension par ressort (2) doté de moyens de blocage (5) associés ou peut comprendre un moteur électrique permettant d'enrouler le câble (4) comme une bobine. Le microphone (9) et l'écouteur (10) peuvent être logés dans ou être placés sur le corps ou le téléphone (8).
