Abstract

When a telephone ringing signal is detected, an LED transmits a stored mute code to the audio or video system to silence it. The device may include in infrared sensor for reading in the mute code from a remote control unit. The device may be integrated in a telephone, a cordless telephone or a mobile telephone.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Stummschal­ ten einer über eine Infrarot-Fernbedienung steuerbaren Audio- oder Videoanlage.The invention relates to a device for silent scarf ten controllable via an infrared remote control Audio or video system.

Bei dem Telefonieren sind die von einer Audio- oder Vi­ deoanlage kommenden Geräusche störend. Dies veranlaßt den Verwender regelmäßig, zunächst die Anlage von Hand (oder über eine Fernbedienung) stummzuschalten, bevor er das Telefongespräch annimmt. When making calls, they are from an audio or Vi deodorant coming disturbing noises. This causes the user regularly, first the system by hand (or via a remote control) to mute before accepts the phone call.  

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vorrich­ tung zu schaffen, bei der die Audio- oder Videoanlage automatisch stummgeschaltet wird.The invention has for its object a Vorrich to create the audio or video system is automatically muted.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe gelöst durch eine Einrichtung zum Erkennen eines Telefonrufsignals, einen Speicher zum Speichern des Stummschalt-Codes der Anlage und eine Infrarot-LED, die bei Erkennen eines Telefon­ rufsignals die LED mit dem Stummschalt-Code der Anlage betrieben wird.According to the invention, this object is achieved by Device for recognizing a telephone call signal, a Memory for storing the mute code of the system and an infrared LED that lights up when a phone is detected call signal the LED with the mute code of the system is operated.

Die Vorrichtung weist vorzugsweise einen zum Einlesen des Stummschalt-Codes der Anlage dienenden Infrarot- Sensor auf, der zum Einlesen des Stummschalt-Codes von der Fernbedienung der stummzuschaltenden Anlage mit dem Code beaufschlagt wird, diesen erkennt und in den Spei­ cher der Vorrichtung einspeichert.The device preferably has one for reading the mute code of the system serving infrared Sensor that is used to read the mute code from the remote control of the system to be muted with the Code is acted upon, recognizes it and stores it in the memory cher the device stores.

Die Vorrichtung kann ein vom Telefon gesondertes, paral­ lel zu diesem an der Anschlußbuchse liegendes Gerät sein, besonders bevorzugt ist jedoch eine Ausgestaltung, bei der die Vorrichtung in das Telefon integriert ist, wobei es sich besonders bevorzugt um ein schnurloses Te­ lefon oder ein Handy handeln kann.The device can be a separate, separate from the telephone lel to this device lying on the connection socket However, an embodiment is particularly preferred, where the device is integrated into the phone, a cordless Te being particularly preferred phone or cell phone.

Es versteht sich, daß die Vorrichtung weiter so ausge­ bildet sein kann, daß die Infrarot-LED auch bei abgehen­ den Telefongesprächen anspricht.It is understood that the device continues so can be formed that the infrared LED also go off appeals to the phone calls.

Es versteht sich weiter, daß der Speicher so ausgebildet sein sollte, daß sie zum Einspeichern (und abgeben) ei­ ner Mehrzahl von Stummschalt-Codes eingerichtet ist, da­ mit eine entsprechende Mehrzahl von Audio- oder Videoan­ lagen stummgeschaltet werden. It is further understood that the memory is designed in this way should be that they should be saved (and released) A plurality of muting codes is set up there with a corresponding plurality of audio or video were muted.  

Bei Ausgestaltung der Vorrichtung als ein gesondertes Gerät oder bei dessen Integration in ein mit einer Schnur versehenem Telefon ist darauf zu achten, daß die Infrarot-LED auf die stummzuschaltende Anlage ausgerich­ tet ist. Bei Integration der Vorrichtung in ein schnur­ loses Telefon oder ein Handy muß der Verwender darauf achten, daß er bei Entgegennahme des Gesprächs die LED auf die stummzuschaltende Anlage ausrichtet.When designing the device as a separate Device or when integrating it with one Make sure that the corded telephone is connected to the Infrared LED aligned to the system to be muted is. When integrating the device into a cord The user must have a loose telephone or cell phone on it make sure that the LED is on when you answer the call aligns to the system to be muted.
