Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention is intended to prevent the cords of stereo earphones such as portable cassette players from becoming tangled. A holder provided on a pair of earphones and an earphone holder attached to the cords of a pair of earphones so that the two earphones can be integrated or separated from each other so that they can be detached and held, and two when stored. The two earphones are held separately so that the two earphones can be separated from each other when used, so that the earphone cord is not tangled.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, to prevent the cords of a stereo earphone such as a portable cassette player from becoming entangled, two earphones are put in a case, the lid is closed, the cord is wound up and stored, and the cord is taken out from the case when used. The method was done. Alternatively, the cord is wrapped around the body of a portable cassette player or the like and stored.

[0003]

In the former one of those described in the prior art, the storage case can be surely stored, but the storage case must be carried separately.
The work of putting it in the case and taking it out of the case is very troublesome, and when taking out from the case, two earphones were often hanging around and tangled.

Further, in the latter case, it takes a lot of time to wrap the cord around the body of a portable cassette player or the like, and the length of the cord of the earphone is different depending on the left and right. As it moves, the earphones get tangled with the cord. Therefore, when most people store their earphones, they just roll them up and put them in their bags or pockets. Then, when I take it out next time, I often find that the cord of the earphone is tangled and I am annoyed to untie it.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present invention allows two earphones to be integrated or separated and detached and held, so that a pair of earphones can be stored as they are. It is an object of the present invention to provide an earphone with a holder and an earphone holder in which a cord does not become entangled even when rolled and put in a bag, a pocket or the like.

[0006]

In order to achieve the above object, an earphone with a holder and an earphone holder in which the cord is not entangled according to the present invention is configured such that two earphones can be detachably held. When stored, since each earphone is attached to the tip of the cord, the two earphones make different movements to entangle and entangle the two cords.

In order to prevent this, it is sufficient that the two earphones move in the same manner. Therefore, when the earphones are stored, the two earphones are held so as to be united and listened to. When necessary, separate the two integrated earphones separately and bring them to both ears,
A pair of earphones can be attached and detached.

In this way, if the two earphones can be attached and detached and held, when the pair of earphones is stored, the two earphones are integrated and the cord attached to each earphone becomes one connected ring. , The cord will not get tangled even if it is rolled up and placed in a bag or pocket.

[0009]

When storing a stereo earphone of a portable cassette player or the like, the hooks for attaching and detaching provided on the pair of earphones are made to intersect with each other, and the earphones are pressed together with their spherical portions aligned. , The spherical contacts of the rings open and the rings enter into the ring and the contacts close and engage.
