ABSTRACT:
A telephone ear piece lock is disclosed to prevent unauthorized use of a protected telephone instrument. The ear piece lock includes a rim mounting bracket that is permanently affixed near the receiver end of the telephone and has a flat arm radially outwardly extending therefrom. The arm is provided with a transverse slot for instrument locking purposes. A disc-like cover overfits the receiver end to function as a sound barrier when tightly held over the receiver end. A bent locking finger extends from the cover and is configured to insert through the bracket slot. The locking finger is provided with an opening to receive a portion of a portable lock therethrough, the lock serving to prevent removal of the cover from its shielding position over the telephone receiver end.
