JPS62242451A - Telephone terminal equipment for confirming called subscriber - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To remove the trouble and uselessness of telephone answering by reproducing a previously recorded message, inquiring a called subscriber's name and amplifying a message including the called subscriber's name sent from a calling subscriber. CONSTITUTION:When a call is terminated, the called side operates a remote control signal originating part 10 and sedns a dummy answer signal. Receiving the dummy answer signal, a remote cotrol signal receiving part 7 transmits a reproduction indicating signal. A recording/reproducing part 5 reproduces a previously recorded message and inquires a called subscriber to a calling subscriber. Receiving the message, a voice amplifying part 6 announces a message including the called subscriber's name sent from the calling subscriber.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial Field of Application) The present invention is directed to ``incoming call operation in a telephone switching system.
This invention relates to a telephone terminal device that takes into consideration simplicity.

(Prior Art) The conventional rowing operation in a telephone exchange system is as follows.

A well-known telephone test system connects to the called terminal and sends out a paging signal. At this point, the calling party does not know who the called party is, enters into a conversation with the person who answered, identifies the person who answered,
If the person you wish to talk to is not the person you want to talk to, you have to ask someone to replace you, which is extremely troublesome.

(Objective of the Invention) The object of the present invention is to solve the problem that operations become cumbersome depending on the answering person, and to enable the called party to quickly confirm who the calling party wishes to be on the other end of the conversation. An object of the present invention is to provide a terminal device for confirming the caller's introduction, which improves the service by making it possible to perform the caller's introduction.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above object, the called party confirmation telephone terminal device according to the present invention includes a sending circuit section, a receiving section, and a calling 1gl.
a response circuit section that connects the calling circuit to the telephone line in the on-hook state, and disconnects the telephone line +19I from the calling circuit in the off-hook state and reconnects it to the transmitting circuit section and the receiving circuit section; A voice amplifying section for amplifying the voice of the calling party sends out a response signal and a reproduction instruction signal, a control signal sending means for sending a disconnection signal when the call is disconnected, and a message to be sent to the calling party is stored, A recording/reproducing section for reproducing messages stored outside the reproduction instruction signal; It consists of a pseudo-response section that returns to the connected state.

(Example) Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the drawings.

#PJI diagram is a conceptual diagram showing an embodiment of a called party confirmation telephone terminal device according to the present invention. In this embodiment, remote control signal reception 87° is applied to f as the lJ injury signal sending means, and 1flIhX is applied from the general telephone terminal l, the attached part and the remote control signal receiving part lO. In the state of waiting for an incoming call, the hook switch H8 and the mechanical contact ah are in the positions shown. When there is an incoming call from a TM exchange machine (not shown), the paging circuit section 2 rings with a ringing signal. As a result, the called party becomes aware of the injury and operates the remote control DI signal transmitter 10 to transmit a pseudo response signal.

When the remote control signal receiving section 7 receives the pseudo response section 4g,
A response signal and a reproduction instruction signal are sent out.

The pseudo-response section 4 is controlled by a response signal, and the mechanical contact a is switched to a position opposite to that shown in the figure, forming a communication circuit via the sound-amplifying section 6 and the recording/reproducing section s5.

On the other hand, in response to a reproduction instruction signal, the recording/reproducing section S reproduces a prerecorded message. This reproduced message is sent to the telephone line via the pseudo response section 4 and the response (9) step section 3. The content of the message is to ask the caller for the name of the called party.

In response to this message, the message including the name of the called party sent from the calling party is announced by the voice amplifying section 6.

At this point, you can know who the '41 Fi caller wants to talk to. This allows the called party, who is the desired party to talk, to go off-hook. The attached part is disconnected from the general telephone terminal l by off-hook,
A transmitting circuit and a receiving circuit are connected to a telephone line.

If the intended called party is not present, the called party operates the relocation remote allocation signal transmitter IO to send a signal that causes the remote control signal receiver to send out a reproduction instruction signal different from that used in response. . Since the recording and reproducing section 5 also stores a message to inform the caller of the caller's absence, the absentee message is reproduced in response to this reproduction instruction signal and sent to the telephone line. If the calling party wishes to disconnect the call, the called party can enter the p-O state by sending a disconnection signal 9 to the pseudo response unit 4.

The embodiments using the remote control signal receiving section and the remote control signal receiving section as the control signal sending means have been described above, and when the control signal sending means receives the calling signal, it sends out the response signal and playback instruction No. 9g. By using the circuit, it is possible to send a message on call and then announce the message from the caller via the voice amplification section 6 without relying on a remote control response. This is the same as the case described above, in which the callee enters the talking state after knowing the person who wishes to make the call.

The control signal sending means configured as described above can also be realized by giving such a function to the remote control number receiving section by performing a specific operation on the telephone terminal device.

The telephone terminal device according to the present invention can be widely applied not only to ordinary homes but also to business use, and especially in ordinary households where there are few opportunities for the whole family to communicate, the telephone terminal device according to the present invention can be controlled by remote control according to the will of the called party. In addition, an automatic type that does not require remote control may be convenient for workplaces, meetings, etc. where the number of people present is high. Selecting remote control or automatic type can be achieved by switching.

(Effects of the Invention) As described above, the present invention is configured so that the caller's desired party can answer, thereby reducing the troublesome and wasteful time of ``WL conversation'' and improving efficiency. This has the effect of being able to achieve this goal.
