Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a desk-top/wall-mounted telephone, and more particularly to a holding structure for a handset and receiver in a desk-top/wall-mounted telephone.

[Technical background of the invention]

FIGS. 1 and 2 show a general desk-top/wall-mounted telephone. This phone is the first
As shown in the figure, when used as a tabletop, the box-shaped stand (high heels 1) is attached to the phone housing 2.
The housing 2 is mounted on the bottom surface of the computer so that the front end thereof is higher than the tabletop, and as shown in FIG.
When used as a wall hanging, the high heel 1 is mounted in the opposite direction, that is, with the lower side higher than the wall 3. When the telephone is used as a wall-mounted telephone, the bottom wall 1a of the high heel 1 is first fixed to the wall 3 with screws, and then the telephone housing 2 is fitted onto the high heel 1. In this case, since there is a risk that the handset 4 may fall from the telephone housing 2, a mounting piece having an engaging head is provided on the telephone housing 2, while the handset 4 is provided with a mounting piece having an engaging head. forming a recess that engages with the joint head;
The recessed portion of the handset 4 is engaged with the engaging head of the telephone housing 2, and the handset 4 is held securely.
However, when the telephone is used on a tabletop, the engaging head of the attachment piece gets in the way, so in this case the attachment piece is removed from the telephone housing.

FIG. 3 shows a main part of a telephone casing of a conventional tabletop/wall-mounted telephone in which such a mounting piece is used. In this telephone housing 2, a pair of holes 5b,
5b, and a pair of claw-shaped legs 6a, 6a that fit into these holes.
are prepared in advance. On the other hand, this phone case 2
As shown in FIG. 4, the handset 4 held in the earpiece 4 has a recess 4b formed in its earpiece 4a. When using the telephone as a wall-hanger, the legs 6a of the mounting piece 6 are fitted into the holes 5b of the lower surface 5a of the cradle, and the engaging head 6b of the mounting piece 6 is made to protrude from the lower surface 5a of the cradle 5. . At this time, the mounting piece 6 is fastened to the telephone housing 2 by the elastic force of the legs 6a, 6a of this piece. The transmitter/receiver 4 then connects the recess 4b to the engaging head 6b of the mounting piece 6.
It is held on the telephone housing 2 by being hooked onto the telephone body 2. FIG. 5 shows another version of this mounting piece 6. The mounting piece 7 in this example is formed by protruding an L-shaped tongue piece 7b from a flat base 7a.
is formed in a shape that fits into a number card mounting recess 8 located near the earpiece cradle 5. The mounting piece 7 formed in this manner has its base 7a fitted into the number card mounting recess 8, the tongue piece 7b of the mounting piece 7 protruding from the lower surface 5a of the earpiece cradle 5, and the screw 9 It is attached to the telephone housing 2 by. And the above-mentioned handset 4
is held in the telephone housing 2 by hooking its recess 4b onto the tongue piece 7b of the mounting piece 7.

By the way, in conventional desk/wall-mountable telephones, the mounting piece 6 or 7 used when the telephone is used as a wall-mounter gets in the way when the telephone is used on a desk, and it is difficult to remove the telephone from the telephone housing 2. Must not be. However, the work of attaching or removing the mounting piece 6 or the mounting piece 7 from the telephone housing 2 is time-consuming, and the work of removing the mounting piece 6 is particularly difficult. Moreover, when the telephone is used on a tabletop, the attachment piece 6 or 7 must be kept when necessary, and there is a risk that it may be lost.

[Purpose of the invention]

In view of the above-mentioned circumstances, the object of the present invention is to provide a desk-top/wall-mounted telephone that can be easily changed to a holding structure for the handset and receiver, regardless of whether the telephone is used on a desk or on a wall. It is about providing.

[Summary of the invention]

That is, in the present invention, on the panel surface of the telephone housing,
forming a recess adjacent to the earpiece cradle;
A mounting piece is accommodated in this recess in a different manner, so that when the telephone is used as a wall-hanger, the engaging head of the mounting piece protrudes into the earpiece cradle, and the telephone is used as a tabletop. At this time, the engaging head of the mounting piece is retracted from the earpiece cradle, and the pin is pushed in to disengage the mounting piece, and the mounting piece is attached to the phone case. In addition to making it easy to pull out from the recess,
In any of the above embodiments of the mounting piece, the recessed portion of the telephone housing is closed to improve the appearance and achieve the above object.
