Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) This invention relates to a pocket bagger that is carried in a pocket of a user's clothing and selectively called up via telephone or radio waves. ) Conventionally, there have been small wireless receivers that can also be used as clocks to display the time, but they usually do not have a timer function that can issue an alarm at a preset scheduled time. (Problem to be solved by the invention) The time that this small cotton-free receiver is used for calling and contacting as its original function is relatively short, and it is desirable to make effective use of the overwhelmingly unused time. It was. Although they are carried around all the time, they are only used for a few functions, such as making calls and displaying the time, so their usage rate is low and they are also felt to be inconvenient. For example, if you use it as an alarm clock when commuting long distances on public transportation, or to set a meeting time for group activities such as school trips, the operating rate will improve, and it will be used effectively and conveniently. The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned conventional problems, and its purpose is to provide a pocket pager that can also be used as a timer that issues an alarm at a set scheduled time. (Means for Solving the Problems) The gist of the present invention for achieving the above object is to provide a call display system that, when receiving a self-station selection call signal, drives a call display means such as sound, light emission, and vibration to notify the user of the call signal. In the pager, a clock means, a timer time setting means, a comparison means for comparing the set timer time of the timer time setting means and the time measured by the time measuring means and sending out a match signal when they match, and a comparison means for sending out a match signal when they match; and control means for driving and controlling the display means according to the invention. In addition, drive control of the display means gives priority to the reception of the own station selection call signal over the arrival of the set timer time;
The operating mode of the display means is different when a call signal is received and when the set timer time has arrived, the timer time setting signal is mixed with the call signal, and the timer time is set. This method consists in allowing multiple stations belonging to the group to set the timer time simultaneously using a mixed timer time setting signal. (Function) In the Pocket Beger configured in this way, whether or not the set time (time) has arrived is determined by the clock time (
When the matching signal is sent out, the display means is driven and controlled to notify the mobile user of the arrival of the set timer time, thus fulfilling the timer function. Therefore, the Pocket Beger can also be used as a timer, making effective use of free time when not in use, expanding its functional uses, and making it more convenient. Furthermore, by giving priority to the calling function over the timer function, there is no problem with the original functions of the pocket pager, and by making the operation of the display means different between the calling operation and the timer operation, both Easily identified. Furthermore, by transmitting a timer time setting signal mixed with the call signal to set the timer time, the timer setting operation on the pocket pager side becomes unnecessary, and by using it together with the group call signal,・Timer time settings are made for all pagers at the same time. (Example) Next, an example of the present invention will be described based on the drawings. FIG. 1 is a circuit block diagram of a pocket pager with a timer function, in which a receiving antenna 10 receives a calling signal radio wave, and a receiving unit 1 demodulates a calling signal from the received signal.
1. An address verification unit 12 that determines whether the selected address data included in the calling signal matches the local address; and a local address setting unit 13 in which the local address is set. A call display unit l4 having a sound part 14a, a light emitting part 14b, and a vibrating part 14C, a call mode operating part l5 for selecting and operating the FL of the 1,000-stage call display l4, a display part l7 for various information such as received data, and operations of each part. The Pocket Beger is composed of a control section 16 that controls the Pocket Beger. A 1,000-stage clock 20, which has a clock oscillator 18 and a clock counter 19 that counts the oscillation pulses to obtain year, month, day, day of the week, and time data; Timer time setting means 2 having a timer memory 2l for accumulating timer setting time and a timer time setting operation section 22 for performing timer time setting operations.
3. Comparison means 24 that compares the set timer time and the current time and sends out a matching signal when they match; a sounding section 14A and a light emitting section 14B that are driven and controlled by different types of sound generation, light emission, and vibration during call display; - Equipped with vibrating part 14c, etc. When the reception of the selective call signal and the arrival of the set timer time occur in the same time period, the control unit 16 gives priority to the call signal processing, which is the original function of the Pocket Beger, and
The call display units 14a to 14C are operated. If the received selective call signal includes timer time setting data, for example "-8-00", the control unit 16
is determined to be a timer time setting command, and the timer time is set in the timer memory 2l.
In addition, in the case of a group selection call signal, the timer time is set simultaneously for all Pocket Bejars belonging to that group. Figure 2 is a plan view and a front view of the Pocket Beja.
They are written next to each other on the left and right using two-point chain cotton. On the information display section 17, Sunday to Saturday are printed on the display surface,
A 7-segment display element (LC) corresponds to the lower row of each day of the week.
D) is placed to display received data such as telephone numbers, and using the upper part of these 7 segments,
The specified day of the week can be displayed by underlining the day of the week. In addition, the states set by the call mode operation unit l5, that is, the distinction of the sounding part 14a, the light emitting part 14b, the built-in vibrating part 14c, etc., the current time, the set timer time, the timer setting state, for example, A circle L mark etc. is now displayed. To set the timer time, for example, the switch on the call mode operation section 15, the light switch 25, and the message switch 26 are used in combination, but these switches are not connected to the timer time setting operation section shown in FIG. It also serves as the switch mechanism section 22a of 22, and the switch circuit section 22b is built-in. In this way, by adding a timer function to a regular pocket pager, it can be used for multiple purposes other than calling and displaying the time, making it even more convenient as it can be used as an alarm clock or for managing meeting times. ．． In addition, the call display section l4 and the timer time setting operation section 22
Most of the parts, such as 6, can be used as is in the ordinary pocket camera 6, and only minor changes to the circuit or the software of the control unit 16 are required, so the timer function can be added at low cost. ．． (Advantageous effect) As described above, according to the present invention, a timer function can be added to the pocket pager function at low cost, and the uses of the pocket pager can be expanded and added. Not only can you increase value, you can also make effective use of your free time to improve convenience, which can have particularly significant effects.
