ABSTRACT:
The conventional earpiece for a telephone handset includes a raised outer periphery surrounding a depression, the bottom of which is perforated for facilitating the transmission of sound from a receiver to the ear of the user. During normal usage, the raised periphery of the earpiece presses against the earlobe of a user. If the user is wearing an earring, use of the handset even for a short period of time can be uncomfortable. A simple solution to this problem is to provide a radially extending notch in the raised periphery of the earpiece for accommodating the earlobe and the earring of the user. Preferably the position of the notch can be changed to suit the particular user via a construction in which the notched outer portion is readily rotatable relative to an inner portion attachable to the handset, with the two portions being formed with a cooperating flange and groove arrangement permitting the relative rotation without affecting the attachment of the inner portion to the handset.
