the cable receptacles are adapted for rotational and translational locking of the cables; the multi-cable positioning device further comprising a first and a second device arm, each comprising a fastening end and a cable end, wherein the fastening ends are arranged adjacent to each other to form the fastening portion and the cable ends are arranged adjacent to each other to form the cable management portion.
2. The multi-cable positioning device of claim 1 , wherein the first and second cable receptacles are arranged spaced from each other.
3. The multi-cable positioning device of claim 1 , wherein at least one of the first and second cable receptacles are formed as cable clamps.
4. The multi-cable positioning device of claim 1 , wherein at least one cable receptacle is formed for receiving a flat cable.
5. The multi-cable positioning device of claim 1 , wherein at least one cable receptacle is formed as a c-shaped cable clamp.
6. The multi-cable positioning device of claim 1 , wherein the first device arm and the second device arm are pivotally connected with each other about an axis of rotation, which axis is oriented perpendicular to a plane in which the device arms are arranged.
7. The multi-cable positioning device of claim 6 , further comprising a spring, which exerts a force onto the device arms towards a closed position of the fastening portion.
8. The multi-cable positioning device of claim 1 , wherein the cable end of at least one device arm comprises a clamp protrusion, which clamp protrusion extends from a base section of the cable end to form the respective cable receptacle.
9. The multi-cable positioning device of claim 8 , wherein the clamp protrusion extends from the base section to form a c-shaped cable receptacle.
10. The multi-cable positioning device of claim 9 , wherein the c-shaped cable receptacle defines a receptacle diameter, wherein the c-shaped cable receptacle further comprises an opening to receive a cable, which opening has a width that is less than the receptacle diameter.
11. The multi-cable positioning device of claim 8 , wherein the clamp protrusion is formed at least partly from elastic material.
12. The multi-cable positioning device of claim 8 , wherein the clamp protrusion is arranged on a side of the base section, facing the respective other device arm.
13. The multi-cable positioning device of claim 8 , wherein the cable ends of both device arms comprise respective clamp protrusions.
14. The multi-cable positioning device of claim 1 , wherein the device is generally x-shaped.
15. The multi-cable positioning device of claim 1 , wherein the cable receptacles are configured so that respective cable can be unlocked from the cable receptacle upon exertion of a user adjustment force.
16. A headset with a first and a second earphone, wherein a first cable extends from the first earphone and a second cable extends from the second earphone, and with a multi-cable positioning device with at least
a fastening portion for removable attachment to clothing, and
a cable management portion; wherein
the cable management portion comprises at least
a first cable receptacle in which a portion of the first cable is arranged, and
a second cable receptacle in which a portion of the second cable is arranged;
wherein the cable receptacles are configured for rotational and translational locking of the cables; the multi-cable positioning device further comprising a first and a second device arm, each comprising a fastening end and a cable end, wherein the fastening ends are arranged adjacent to each other to form the fastening portion and the cable ends are arranged adjacent to each other to form the cable management portion.
17. A multi-cable positioning device with at least
a first device arm; and
a second device arm; wherein
each device arm comprises a fastening end and a cable end;
the fastening ends are arranged adjacent to each other to form a fastening portion for removable attachment to clothing;
the cable end of the first arm comprises a first cable receptacle;
the cable end of the second arm comprises a second cable receptacle; and wherein
each cable receptacle is adapted for rotational and translational locking of a cable.
18. The multi-cable positioning device of claim 17 , wherein each cable receptacle is formed as a cable clamp.
