Abstract

A telephone set having a reading device for memory cards contains a call number evaluation device which evaluates a call number, which has been read from the memory card and is to be dialled, as a function of a local telephone area code programmed into the telephone set and outputs it with or without a prefixed local telephone area code, depending on the result.

Description

Telefonapparat mit Leseeinrichtung für Speicherkarten Telephone with reader for memory cards

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Telefonapparat nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs.The invention relates to a telephone set according to the preamble of Claim.

Bekannt sind Telefonapparate mit einem Speicher zur Aufnahme ganzer Rufnummern. Das Komforttelefon alpha der Deutschen Bundespost, beispielsweise, besitzt einen derartigen Speicher (Unterrichtsblätter der DBP, Jg. 34/1981, Nr. 10, Seiten 364 bis 366). Bei anderen Apparaten ist der Speicher in einem Beistellgerät, dem Zieltaster, untergebracht. Die Rufnummern können vom Benutzer durch einfache Handlungen, z.B. durch Betätigen von Tasten, eingespeichert und wieder abgerufen werden.Telephone sets are known with a memory for recording whole Phone numbers. The comfort telephone alpha of the Deutsche Bundespost, for example, has such a memory (teaching sheets of the DBP, Jg. 34/1981, No. 10, pages 364 to 366). With other devices, the memory is in an add-on device, the Target button, housed. The phone numbers can be set by the user through simple actions, e.g. by pressing buttons, can be stored and retrieved again.

Durch diesen vereinfachten Eingabemodus geht beim Benutzer zunehmend das Erinnerungsvermögen für Rufnummern verloren, weil er es nicht mehr nötig hat, sich die Nummern zu merken.This simplified input mode is increasingly used by the user lost the ability to remember phone numbers because he no longer needs it, memorize the numbers.

Kommt er dann in die Lage, von einem anderen Telefonapparat anrufen zu müssen, so hat er die sonst verwendeten Telefonnummern nicht mehr parat.If he is then able to call from another telephone set to have to, he no longer has the phone numbers that are normally used to hand.

Im Bereich der öffentlichen Münzfernsprecher sind Geräte im Betrieb, bei denen die Bezahlung der Gesprächseinhei ten statt durch Münzen durch Kredit- oder Wertkarten erfolgen kann bzw. muß. Die Wertkarten enthalten im wesentlichen nur Informationen über ihren gegenwärtigen Wert, der sich im Verlauf eines Telefongespräches laufend verändert. Um die Karten universeller verwendbar und damit attraktiver zu machen, ist vorgeschlagen worden, für den Fernsprechteilnehmer eine Buchungskarte zu entwickeln, bei der die Gebührendaten auf der Karte gespeichert und erst bei Erreichen eines vorgegebenen Wertes zur Belastung des eigenen Fernmeldekontos zur Vermittlungsstelle übertragen werden. Mit einer solchen Karte kann von allen Telefonapparaten angerufen werden, die mit Kartenlesegeräten ausgerüstet sind. Außerdem kann der Kartenspeicher für zusätzliche Leistungsmerkmale, wie Kurzwahl, genutzt werden, d.h er enthält dann außer persönlichen und Kontendaten auch oft gebrauchte Rufnummern (ZPF 2/83, Seiten 28 bis 31).In the area of public payphones there are devices in operation, in which the payment of the call units by credit card instead of coins or prepaid cards can or must be done. The prepaid cards essentially contain only information about their current value, which is revealed in the course of a telephone conversation constantly changing. To make the cards more universally usable and thus more attractive It has been proposed to make a booking card for the telephone subscriber to develop in which the charge data is saved on the card and only when Reaching a specified value for debiting one's own telecommunications account for Exchange are transferred. Such a card can be used by all telephones that are equipped with card readers. In addition, the Card memory can be used for additional features, such as speed dialing, i.e. it then contains not only personal and account data but also frequently used phone numbers (ZPF 2/83, pages 28 to 31).

Bei der Benutzung der Karte im überregionalen Bereich treten jedoch insofern Schwierigkeiten auf, als entweder im Speicher der Karte nur Teilnehmernummern ohne Ort snetzkennzahl enthalten sind (letztere müßte manuell vorgewählt werden) oder wenn vollständige Nummern gespeichert sind, so wird die Ortsnetzkennzahl auch dann mitgewählt, wenn im Ortsnetz angerufen wird, ihre Wahl also überflüssig ist.When using the card in the supra-regional area, however, occur Difficulties in that either only subscriber numbers in the memory of the card are included without local network code (the latter would have to be preselected manually) or if full numbers are stored, the area code is also then also dialed when a call is made in the local network, so your selection is superfluous.

Dadurch werden Fernvermittlungseinrichtungen unnütz belegt.As a result, long distance switching facilities are uselessly occupied.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Telefonapparat mit Leseeinrichtung für Speicherkarten zu schaffen, der bei Wählen einer ausgelesenen Rufnummer das unnötige Belegen von Fernvermittlungseinrichtungen vermeidet. Gelöst wird diese Aufgabe durch die im Kennzeichen des Anspruchs angegebenen Merkmale.The invention is based on the object of a telephone set with To create a reading device for memory cards that is read out when one is selected Number avoids unnecessary occupation of long distance switching equipment. Solved this task is achieved by the features specified in the characterizing part of the claim.

Die Erfindung wird im folgenden näher erläutert.The invention is explained in more detail below.

Der Benutzer des Telefonapparates besitzt eine Speicherkarte mit magnetischem, Halbleiter- oder ähnlichem Speicher, in der er seine häufig benutzten Rufnummern mit Ortsnetzkennzahl einspeichern kann. Das Speichermedium kann auch statt der Karten- eine Stab-, Schlüssel- oder andere Form haben. Durch diesen jederzeit mitführbaren Speicher ist der Benutzer in der Lage, den gewohnten Telefonkomfort auch außerhalb des ihm zugeordneten Telefonapparates zu verwenden. Zweckmäßig sollte der Speicher umprogrammierbar sein.The user of the telephone set has a memory card with a magnetic, Semiconductor or similar memory in which he stores his frequently used phone numbers can store with area code. The storage medium can also be used instead of the card have a rod, key or other shape. This can be carried at any time Memory, the user is able to use the usual telephone convenience outside of it of the telephone set assigned to him. The memory should be practical be reprogrammable.

Der Speicher wird bei Bedarf in einen Schlitz oder einen anderen Aufnehmer am Telefonapparat eingeschoben und der Leseeinrichtung zugeführt. Diese liest z.B. durch Betätigen einer Taste die gewünschte Rufnummer aus. Eine Rufnummernauswerteeinrichtung vergleicht diese Rufnummer mit der eigenen Ortsnetzkennzahl des Telefonapparates, die ihm bereits beim Anschluß einprogrammiert wurde. Durch den Vergleich wird festgestellt, ob beim nachfolgenden Wählen der Rufnummer die Ortsnetzkennzahl vorzusetzen ist oder nicht. So wird z.B. bei einer im Kartenspeicher abgelegten Rufnummer 0711 123456 bei Benutzung im Stuttgarter Ortsnetz nur die Nummer 123456 gewählt, bei Benutzung im Münchner Ortsnetz jedoch die gesamte Ziffernfolge 0711 123456.If necessary, the memory is placed in a slot or another receptacle inserted into the telephone and fed to the reading device. This reads e.g. select the desired number by pressing a key. A call number evaluation device compares this phone number with the local area code of the telephone set, which was already programmed into it when it was connected. The comparison determines Whether the area code is to be added when dialing the number afterwards or not. For example, a phone number 0711 123456 when using in the Stuttgart local network only dialed the number 123456, when using In the Munich local network, however, the entire sequence of digits 0711 123456.
