PROTECTIVE COMMUNICATION DEVICE HOUSING FOR RETRACTABLE AUDIO DEVICES HAVING OPTIONAL GRIPPING MECHANISM

摘要

A retractable audio device housing system includes a housing having internal dimensions substantially the same as external dimensions of a mobile communications device that includes an internal cavity for mounting a retracting cord mechanism. The internal cavity has at least one wall that separates a first end of a cord capable of transmitting an electrical signal from a second end of the cord, the first end of the cord has a connector plug adapted to be connected to an output port of the mobile communications device and the second end of the cord has at least one earpiece, wherein when the second end of cord is extracted, the retracting mechanism becomes tensioned. The housing further includes an internal chamber for securing the retracting mechanism and for positioning the first end of the cord and the second end of the cord on opposite sides of the wall.
