ABSTRACT:
A telephone apparatus includes a handset with a heel and a head with a recess, a base having a first depressed part with a lip to receive and hold the heel of the handset and a second depressed part adapted to receive the head of the handset when the handset is placed on the base, a locking arm with a boss, the arm being pivotally mounted on the base and the boss being located on the arm at a distance from the pivot thereof and being positioned to mate with the recess of the head of the handset and a spring loaded lever mechanism pivotally mounted on the base for keeping the locking arm in a locking position whereby its boss is kept mated in the recess of the second part of the base. The lever mechanism is also adopted to move the locking arm to withdraw the boss away from the recess to a released position in response to an external pressure applied thereto to release the handset.
