DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS

[0019] As shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the present invention provides a clothes having a detachable hidden communication wire, which comprises a clothes 10 and a communication wire 20. The clothes 10 can be a jacket or a shirt, and is preferable to be a jacketing open at the front side. The clothes 10 is a conventional structure and thus will not be further described.

[0020] The present invention is characterized in that a receiving space 11 for receiving the communication wire 20 is disposed on the clothes 10. In this embodiment of the present invention, the receiving space 11 is disposed on a lapel 12 of the clothes 10. The lapel 12 is the portion of the clothes 10 where a zipper is sewed up or buttons are sewed on. That is, the receiving space 11 is disposed at one side of the zipper or the buttons. In this embodiment of the present invention, the receiving space 11 is disposed at one side of a zipper 13 on the lapel 12 of the clothes 10.

[0021] The receiving space 11 is sewed up on the clothes 10. The receiving space 11 forms a long and thin hole, with a first opening 11 and a second opening 12 respectively formed at the upper and lower ends thereof. A plurality of through holes 113 are alternately disposed on the sidewall of the receiving space 11. The through holes 113 are situated between the first opening 111 and the second opening 112. The through holes 113 penetrate from the receiving space 11 to the outside.

[0022] Two ends of the communication wire 20 are connected to a first connector 21 and a second connector 22, respectively. The communication wire 20 passes through and is received in the receiving space 11. The first connector 21 and the second connector 22 protrude out of the receiving space 11 from the first opening 111 and the second opening 112 of the receiving space 11, respectively, or protrude out from the through holes 113 to match each user's height. The disposition of the through holes 113 can let a user conveniently see the communication wire 20 in the receiving space 11 so that the communication wire 20 can successfully pass through the receiving space 11. The communication wire 20 can thus be assembled with the clothes 10. A clothes having a detachable hidden communication wire is thus formed.

[0023] As shown in FIG. 4, the communication wire 20 is hidden inside the clothes 10. The communication wire 20 can be used to connect a portable electronic device 30 and a handfree earphone 40. The portable electronic device 30 in this embodiment is a mobile phone. The portable electronic device 30 is plugged with a connection wire 31. One end of the connection wire 31 has a third connector 32, which is plugged with the second connector 22 at one end of the communication wire 20. The earphone 40 is connected with a connection wire 41. One end of the connection wire 41 has a fourth connector 41, which is plugged with the first connector 21 at the other end of the communication wire 20. The communication wire 20 can thus be connected between the portable electronic device 30 and the earphone 40 so that signals of the portable electronic device 30 can be transferred to the earphone 40 via the communication wire 20. Of course, the communication wire 20 can also be used to connect a portable electronic device and a microphone.

[0024] As shown in FIG. 5, the communication wire 20 of the present invention can also be used to connect a portable electronic device 50 and an earphone (or a microphone) 60. The portable electronic device 50 in this embodiment is a walkman. The portable electronic device 50 is plugged with a connection wire 51. One end of the connection wire 51 has a fifth connector 52, which is plugged with the second connector 22 at one end of the communication wire 20. The earphone 60 is connected with a connection wire 61. One end of the connection wire 61 has a sixth connector 61, which is plugged with the first connector 21 at the other end of the communication wire 20. The communication wire 20 can thus be connected between the portable electronic device 50 and the earphone 60 so that signals of the portable electronic device 50 can be transferred to the earphone 60 via the communication wire 20.

[0025] In the present invention, the communication wire 20 is hidden inside the clothes 10. The communication wire 20 can thus be well positioned, will not swing, and will not disturb a user's action, hence facilitating action and work of user.

[0026] Moreover, in the present invention, the communication wire 20 is disposed inside the clothes 10 in mobile assembly way. The detachment and replacement is easy, the assembly is simple and convenient, and the cost is lower.

[0027] As shown in FIG. 6, in the present invention, the lower end of the receiving space 11 can also extend to the lower edge at one side of the clothes 10, and the portable electronic device 30 can be directly plugged with the second connector 22 at one side of the communication wire 20.

[0028] As shown in FIG. 7, the receiving space 11 in this embodiment is disposed on the lapel 12 of the clothes 10. The lapel 12 is the portion of the clothes 10 where buttons is sewed on. That is, the receiving space 11 in this embodiment is disposed at one side of buttons 14 on the lapel 12 of the clothes 10.

[0029] As shown in FIGS. 8 and 8A, the receiving space 11 in this embodiment is disposed on the lapel 12 of the clothes 10. A sheet body 15 extends from the lapel 12. Corresponding connection elements 16 and 17 are disposed on the sheet body 15 and the lapel 12. In this embodiment, the connection elements 16 and 17 are buckle bands. The connection elements 16 and 17 are connected with each other so that the sheet body 15 and the lapel 12 can be joined together with the receiving space 11 formed between the sheet body 15 and the lapel 12. The communication wire 20 can be placed in from the side of the receiving space 11, and the connection elements 16 and 17 are then connected, thereby receiving the communication wire 20 in the receiving space 11.

[0030] As shown in FIG. 9, in this embodiment, a winding retractable portion 23 is disposed on the communication wire 20 so that the length of the communication wire 20 can be properly extended or contracted. Moreover, the upper end of the receiving space 11 can extend to a collar 18 of the clothes 10. Additionally, the communication wire 20 can be used to connect an earphone 70 and a vibration type microphone 71. The earphone 70 and the microphone 71 are connected with a connection wire 72. One end of the connection wire 72 has a seventh connector 73, which is plugged with the first connector 21 at the other end of the communication wire 20.

[0031] Although the present invention has been described with reference to the preferred embodiment thereof, it will be understood that the invention is not limited to the details thereof. Various substitutions and modifications have been suggested in the foregoing description, and other will occur to those of ordinary skill in the art. Therefore, all such substitutions and modifications are intended to be embraced within the scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
