Description

Computer device with telephone function

The present invention relates to a computer device with a telephone function, and more particularly, a computer using a computer main body having a display device, a USB hub, and a modem having a button for inputting a telephone number and a button having an on-hook function. The present invention relates to a computer device to which a telephone function is added to allow a telephone call to a counterpart while working with the main body.

Recently, as the technology related to the main body of the computer is newly developed and the functions to be performed gradually increase, the number of the medium and low speed peripheral devices such as the main body of the computer and the modem, the voice card, the scanner, and the game machine connected thereto can be expanded, Universal Serial Bus (USB) devices have been developed and used to provide a unified standard for transmission.

When data is input from the control means built into the main body of the computer, the USB device transfers the input data to a medium / low speed peripheral device that requires it, and when the data is input from the medium / low speed peripheral device, the computer transmits the data. Transfer via USB cable to the control means built in the main body.

However, a computer body and a display device having such a USB device may control a peripheral device connected to the computer body according to a key signal input by the user, or display data input from the peripheral device on the display device so that the user can view it. There was a problem in having a telephone system when making a call.

Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to work with a computer main body using a computer main body having a display device, a USB hub, and a modem having a button for inputting a telephone number and a button having an on-hook function so as to solve the above problems. The present invention provides a computer device with a telephone function for making a phone call with a counterpart.

In the computer device according to the present invention for achieving the above object, the device of the present invention is provided with a button having a number button and on-hook function for inputting a phone number on the front of the display device, and is input by the user Recognizing the hook signal from the control unit provided in the display device, and transmits the control signal for the recognized on-hook signal to the computer main body having a modem through a USB hub to form a telephone call line, through the formed telephone call line It is characterized by receiving a ring signal and a voice signal transmitted from the other party to the computer main body to enable a telephone call with the other party using a speaker and a microphone handset provided in the display device through a USB hub.

Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

1 is a block diagram schematically showing a configuration of a computer device to which a telephone function of the present invention is added.

As shown, the display apparatus 100 transmits a control signal according to the key signal for the on-hook input by the user and the key signal for the telephone number, and outputs the user's voice signal input to the microphone (MIC) The audio signal of the other party is output through the speaker SPK.

The computer device 200 includes a modem and a USB control unit therein, forms a telephone call line according to a control signal input from the display device through the USB control unit, and modulates a voice signal input from the display device through a modem to communicate. It transmits to the other party through the line, and demodulates the voice signal of the other party received through the communication line through the modem to output to the display device.

The display apparatus 100 converts an audio signal input through a handset 110 formed of a microphone MIC and a speaker SPK and a microphone MIC of the handset 110 into a digital signal. And a key input unit 130 having a number button and an on-hook button for inputting a plurality of telephone numbers, and outputting a key signal corresponding to a button selected by the user, and in the key input unit 130. The control unit 140 controls the overall system to form a telephone call line according to the input key signal, and the digital signal input from the A / D converter 120 according to the control signal of the control unit 140 is connected to the USB hub ( The demodulated counterpart inputted from the computer main body 200 through the USB control unit 160 and the USB hub 150 and the USB control unit 160 according to the control signal of the control unit 140 and the transmission to the computer main body through the 150. D / A converter 170 for converting an audio signal into an analog signal, and D The amplification unit 180 amplifies the analog signal input from the / A converter 170 to a predetermined level and outputs it through the speaker SPK of the handset 110.

Reference numeral 190 is a memory.

The handset 110 may be configured by connecting a headphone with a microphone (MIC) to a headphone jack provided in the display apparatus 100.

The operation of the computer device constructed as described above will be described in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

When the user presses the telephone call-on-hook button of the key input unit 120 provided on the front of the display apparatus 100, the controller 140 recognizes this, and accordingly, the control unit for forming a telephone call line is connected to the USB controller 160. ) And a USB hub 150 to the computer main body 200, the computer main body 200 receives an input through a USB control unit (not shown) provided therein and is connected by a modem (not shown). Make a call line.

Thereafter, when the user inputs a phone number using the number buttons of the key input unit 130, the controller 140 receives the input and outputs a control signal, and the control signal input from the controller 140 is the USB controller 160 and the USB. The hub 150 is transmitted to the computer main body 200.

Then, the computer main body 200 forms a call line with the other party's phone through the USB control unit and the modem, and the voice signal of the other party is transmitted through the formed phone call line, and the transmitted voice signal is transmitted to the modem of the computer main body 200. By demodulation is transmitted to the display device 100 via a USB hub provided in the computer main body 200.

Then, the demodulated voice signal of the counterpart is output to the control unit 140 through the USB hub 150 and the USB control unit 160 to be digitally processed, and then output to the D / A converter 170 and the signal processed voice. The signal is converted into an analog signal by the D / A converter 170, and the converted analog signal is amplified by a predetermined level by the amplifier 180, and then through the speaker SPK of the handset 110. It is output for the user who calls

When the user hears the voice signal output through the speaker (SPK) of the handset 110, the microphone is converted into a voice signal by the microphone (MIC) of the handset 110, the input voice signal is converted to A / D The digital signal is converted into a digital signal by the controller 120, and is processed by the controller 140, and then transmitted to the computer main body 200 through the USB controller 160 and the USB hub 150. The voice signal is modulated by the modem and outputted so that it can be heard through the other party's talker.

Therefore, the present invention provides an effect that the user can easily receive a call from the other party or make a call to the other party while performing a predetermined task using the computer main body.
