Benefits of technology

The technical effect of this patent is to create an attachable device for phones that offers both protection and easy attachment to users without requiring any special mechanics on the phone itself.

Problems solved by technology

The technical problem addressed in this patent is how to enable mobile wireless phone users to safely and easily use the services while driving or performing other activities that require them to handle the phone separately. Existing solutions like hands-free heads or retractable headsets come with limitations such as requiring extra equipment or being unable to protect the phone from damage. Therefore, what is required is an integrated solution that allows for convenient hands-free usage without adding any physical burden to the user.

Embodiment Construction

[0024] 1. Describe Existing Non-retracting Headset Assembly.

[0025] FIG. 1 shows a conventional headset cable assembly 10. Headset cable assemblies 10 such as these are used with cordless and wireless phones 50. Headset cable assembly 10 typically includes an earphone 16, and a microphone 12. These components are connected mechanically and electrically by the headset cable 8. Headset cable 8 is a plastic-coated, wound assembly of conductors and insulators such that earphone 16 and microphone 12 are functionally connected to a connector 4, which is plugged into a wireless phone 50. Headset cable assemblies 10 are used by plugging connector 4 into a receptacle in wireless phone 50, and placing earphone 16 in a user's ear. Microphone 12 captures the user's speech because it is spaced away from earphone 16 such that it is in proximity to the user's mouth. Earphone 16 and microphone 12 may be in separate housings, such as the design shown in FIG. 1, or they may be integrated into one sing...
