Abstract

The automatic telephone answering machine is connected to a telephone set and records incoming conversations and replays a recorded message to the caller. After the message has been replayed, the machine connects the caller to the wanted subscriber. After changeover to the wanted subscriber a call signal is applied to the line until the called subscriber answers. The caller therfore receives the called party's recorded message before being connected through. The recorded message can be an advertisement, the name and profession of the subscriber, change of number etc.

Description

An ein Telefon oder eine Telefonanlage To a telephone or a telephone system

angeschlossene Einrichtung Die Erfindung betrifft eine an ein Telefon oder eine Telefonanlage angeschlossene Einrichtung zur Übermittlung einer auf einem Tonträger gespeicherten Information an einen Anrufer, mit einem Schalter, der nach Abgabe der Information den Anrufer mit einer Stelle zum Empfang einer Nachricht verbindet. connected device The invention relates to a telephone or a device connected to a telephone system for the transmission of one to one Sound carrier stored information to a caller, with a switch that turns after Providing the information to the caller with a point to receive a message connects.

Es sind Einrichtungen bekannt, die als Telefonanrufbeantworter bezeichnet werden und einen Schalter aufweisen, der nach Abgabe der auf einem Tonband gespeicherten Information an den Anrufer den Anrufer mit dem Aufnahmeteil des Anrufbeantworters verbindet, damit der Anrufer eine Nachricht auf das Tonband für den angewählten Teilnehmer sprechen kann. Derartige Einrichtungen haben sich für den Fall, daß der angewählte Teilnehmer nicht erreichbar ist, als nützlich erwiesen. Diese Einrichtungen sind aber ausgeschaltet, wenn der Teilnehmer sich in der Nähe der Teilnehmerstation (Telefonapparat) befindet, da in diesem Fall der Teilnehmer die ankommenden Gespräche annehmen kann.There are facilities known as telephone answering machines and have a switch which, after releasing the stored on a tape Information to the caller the caller with the recording part of the answering machine connects so that the caller has a message on the tape for the dialed Participant can speak. Such facilities have in the event that the selected subscriber cannot be reached has proven useful. These bodies but are switched off when the subscriber is in the vicinity of the subscriber station (Telephone set) is located, as in this case the subscriber receives the incoming calls can accept.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, Einrichtungen der eingangs genannten Art derart zu verändern, daß zusätzlich oder alternativ eine Information oder Nachricht auch dann an Anrufer abgebbar ist, wenn der Teilnehmer erreichbar ist.The object of the invention is to provide devices of the type mentioned at the beginning Art to be changed in such a way that additionally or alternatively an information or message can also be given to the caller if the subscriber can be reached.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die Stelle für den Empfang der Nachricht die Station des angewählten Teilnehmers ist.This object is achieved according to the invention in that the point the station of the selected subscriber is to receive the message.

Die erfindungsgemäße Einrichtung ist auch dann eingeschaltet, wenn der Teilnehmer des Anschlusses, an dem die Einrichtung angeschlossen ist, anwesend ist, und gibt ihre auf dem Tonträger gespeicherte Information an den Anrufer immer ab, ehe der Teilnehmer nach der Abgabe automatisch mit dem Anrufer verbunden wird. Diese von bekannten Einrichtungen vollständig abweichende Arbeitsweise erlaubt es dem Anrufe, regelmäßig, eine Vorabinformation zu geben, ehe sich der Teilnehmer melden kann. Diese Vorabinformation oder Vorabnachricht kann eine Werbemitteilung sein oder eine wichtige Information, die für jeden Anrufer von Bedeutung ist. So kann z. B. dem Anrufer der Name des Teilnehmers mitgeteilt werden, was z.B. bei Behörden von Vorteil ist, bei denen häufig die Teilnehmer der Nebenanschlüsse wechseln. Aber es kann z.B. auch dem Anrufer die Information gegeben werden, daß der angerufene Teilnehmer in Kürze eine andere Rufnummer erhalten wird.The device according to the invention is also switched on when the subscriber of the connection to which the facility is connected is present is, and always gives the information stored on the sound carrier to the caller before the subscriber is automatically connected to the caller after the transfer. This mode of operation, which is completely different from known devices, allows it the calls, regularly, to give advance information before the subscriber can report. This advance information or advance notice can be an advertising message his or an important piece of information that is important for every caller. So can e.g. B. the name of the subscriber can be communicated to the caller, which is e.g. Authorities, where the subscribers of the extension lines change frequently, is an advantage. But it can also be given to the caller, for example, that the called Subscriber will shortly receive a different number.

Vorzugsweise wird vorgeschlagen, daß nach der Umschaltung zum Teilnehmer auf die Leitung ein Rufzeichen geschaltet ist, bis der Teilnehmer seine Station bedient. Hierdurch wird dem Anrufer nach der Übermittlung der gespeicherten Information deutlich gemacht, daß der Teilnehmer durch Ertönen des Weckers im Teilnehmerapparat gerufen wird Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wird im folgenden näher beschrieben.It is preferably proposed that after switching to the subscriber A callsign is switched to the line until the subscriber reaches his station served. This will help the caller after the transmission of the stored information made it clear that the subscriber by sounding the alarm clock in the subscriber set is called An embodiment of the invention is described in more detail below.

Die Einrichtung ist einem Telefonanrufbeantworter ähnlich aufgebaut. Sie besitzt einen Schaltteil, der bei einem Anruf durch zwei Kontakte zwei Stromkreise schließt und dadurch die Verbindung zum Amt herstellt. Gleichzeitig wird ein Tonbandgerät in Gang gesetzt, das auf Widergabe geschaltet ist und auf ihm gespeicherte Informationen an den Anrufer übermittelt.The setup is similar to a telephone answering machine. It has a switching part which, when a call is received, has two electrical circuits through two contacts closes and thereby establishes the connection to the office. At the same time there is a tape recorder set in motion that is switched to playback and information stored on it transmitted to the caller.

Nach Abgabe der Informationen wird ein Schalter betätigt, der die vom Amt ankommende Leitung mit der zum Telefon des Teilnehmers führenden Leitung verbindet. Erst jetzt werden durch die zum Teilnehmerapparat führende Leitung Stromstöße gesandt, die den Wecker des Teilnehmerapparates in Funktion setzen, bis der Teilnehmer den Hörer seiner Station abnimmt.After submitting the information, a switch is operated that the Incoming line from the exchange with the line leading to the subscriber's telephone connects. Only now are current surges through the line leading to the subscriber set sent, which set the alarm clock of the participant set in function until the participant picks up the receiver at his station.
