  • Patent number: 6185302
    Abstract: The invention relates to a telephone holder, especially a holder (2) installable on a car in which a phone (1) is kept during driving. The holder has an enclosed structure and it comprises a cup-like inner shell part (4), an outer shell part (5) and a locking element (7) fitted in the cavity between the shell parts and movable with respect to the shell parts, a thrust block (12) and locking claw (15) in the locking element being located in a hole (11) formed in the inner shell part. The phone is locked into the holder with a turning movement wherein the phone pushes the thrust block (12) and at the same time a guiding surface (16) in the outer shell part wedges the locking claw (15) into a hollow (17) on the side of the phone. The pushing movement is directed against the end (23) of a double torsion spring (22) in the holder so that the middle part of the spring turns a shaft (18) and thus locks the locking element (7) into the locked position.
