TELEPHONE REST.
Application filed. August 23, 1922. Serial No. 583,890. I
My invention relates to improvements for holding a telephone receiver in position on the shoulder, whereby a person is enabled to listen to a telephone conversation, or await a telephone call, and at the same time have the hands free while attending to other work.
It is an object of my invention to provide simplified means whereby the telephone receiver may be supported on the shoulder and held against the car without danger of slipping ofi".
Another object of my invention is to provide simplified means for slipping on and off the telephone receiver, or attaching thereto, in a very easy manner.
Referring to the drawings in which like numbers indicate the same partsi Fig. 1 is an elevation of a telephone receiver showing my attachment in section fastened thereto.
Fig. 2 is a view showing the receiver and attachment held in position between the shoulder and the ear.
Fig. 3 is a view looking down on my attachment.
Fig. 4 is a bottom view of a modification.
Fig. 5 is a side view of the modification shown in Fig. 4.
At 1 is a telephone receiver having the wires for the current circuit 4. and .5 coming through the center portion of one end. An attachment 2 is for slipping over the end of 1 and is preferably made of resilient rubber.-
The attachment 2 has a central passage 3 molded therein through which the wires 4 and 5 pass and 2 is preferabl'y molded in hexagonal form and-having a'radial slot 6 cast therein, both for purposes-which will be later described.
The attachment 2 is so molded as to closely fit the small end of receiver 1 and is attached thereto simply by pressing downwards onthe larger face and inserting the wires through slot 6 which extends into p'assageway 3, whereupon the small end of 1 is easily inserted in the molded portion of 2 adapted to receive it and upon releasing the pressure on 2 the same is firmly held in position on 1.
The attachment 2 is molded preferably in hexagonal form, thus forming the frustumof a pyramid, the sides of which are of such a knurled side and the resistance of a slope or angle that when the-f receiver and the shoulder.
The modifications shown in Figs. 4. and 5 illustrate an attachment of like general r'tructure but having. a simple conical knurled surface. Many such modifications are apparentto those skilled in the art and come within the scope of my invention for which I claim. I
I claim:
1. An attachment for a telephone receiver comprising a molded rubber fitting having a polygonal base with a plurality of sides and.adaptcd to be slipped on the .smallend of the receiver and having a central passageway through which to pass the receiver wires and having a radial slot adapted to widen or contract by pressure when it is desired to attach or detach the fitting to or from the receiver. V
2. An attachmentior holding a telephone receiver against the ear, said receiver having a small end and a large end, comprising a rubber fitting adapted to be slipped on the small end of the receiver; said fitting order to preventany slipping of the telephone receiver from having a side sloping at'an angle to thelongitudinal axis of the receiver in order to maintain the receiver in a fixed position by the pressure of the ear against the large end and the resistance of the shoulder at the small end. 7
3. An attachment for holding a telephone receiver against the ear, said receiver having a small end and a large end, comprising a rubber fitting adapted to be slipped on the small end of the receiver; said fitting having sloping at an angle to the longitudinal axis of the receiver in order to maintain the receiver in a fixed position by the pressure of the ear against the large end small endp t Signed at Los 'Angeles, i'n'the county of Los Angeles, and State of California, this 18th day of August A. D. 1922'."
