Abstract
A holder for a telephone handset, in particular for use in cars, which is to provide a hands-free function comprises a stationary holder part and a pivotable holder part which can pivot relative to the former about a holder pivot axis between an open position, in which the pivotable holder part encloses an angle with the stationary holder part, and a closed position, in which the pivotable holder part lies substantially parallel to the stationary holder part. The pivotable holder part has a connector which cooperates with a mating connector of a cordless telephone handset so as to achieve an automatic electrical connection thereof when a cordless telephone handset is inserted.
