Definitions

  • the invention relates to a music playback device for a motor vehicle provided with an antenna and a receiver, comprising an input unit for operating the receiver, a display connected to the receiver and at least one loudspeaker.
  • GB-A-2 185 361 describes a terminal which is intended for professional use at home and via an interface with a transmission line by cable or satellite is connected.
  • the information intended for the terminal includes music, but also digital, fax, teletex and videotex information.
  • the terminal has a memory for the received information, a central unit and an output and display unit.
  • the connections to stationary devices are provided in the form of cables or lines, those to mobile devices such as hand displays are realized by radio, for example infrared remote transmission.
  • the known terminal should make it possible to transmit data at times with low tariffs and thus to save transmission costs.
  • a coin-operated music machine with a coin unit, a display, an input keyboard and at least one loudspeaker is known.
  • the music automat is connected to a central music store via a remote data transmission line, the remote data transmission line being suitable for the transmission of sound information and preferably being an ISDN line.
  • the known music machine therefore does not itself contain a playback unit with the corresponding associated further device units, but rather is connected to a central music store and can provide the desired information, i.e. retrieve the selected pieces of music.
  • the expenditure on equipment of the individual music automat is reduced and the scope of operating and maintenance work is also reduced.
  • a stocking and an exchange of records at individual music automats are omitted. This is only necessary with the central music store, which can contain a much larger number of pieces of music than a single music machine.
  • the capacity of the central music store which is expediently designed as a database, can be used better than that of an individual music machine.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a music player for motor vehicles, which is easy to use and at the same time allows music pieces stored at a fixed location to be played.
  • a music playback device for a motor vehicle provided with an antenna and a receiver thus comprises an input unit for operating the receiver, a display connected to the receiver and at least one loudspeaker. Furthermore, a central unit and an output unit for the output of commands and control signals are provided in the motor vehicle.
  • a music memory is provided which is expediently connected to one or more transmitters by means of a modem via a remote data transmission line suitable for the transmission of sound information.
  • the receiver of the motor vehicle is intended to receive the data sent by the at least one transmitter, and the output unit of the motor vehicle is provided for communication with the music memory and the retrieval of music pieces.
  • a playback device thus does not itself contain a playback unit with the corresponding associated further device units, but rather an external music storage device can be accessed by means of the music playback device and the desired information, ie the selected pieces of music, can be called up from this become.
  • the outlay on equipment for the individual music playback unit is lower, since pieces of music or corresponding information carriers only have to be stored in the external music store. It also no longer happens that a piece cannot be listened to simply because the cassette in question is not carried.
  • the solution according to the invention makes use of the possibilities of data transmission, which is now becoming increasingly common, but is conventionally only used with stationary transmitters and receivers.
  • the remote data transmission line is preferably an ISDN connection.
  • the use of such an integrated digital data transmission technology permits high transmission speeds.
  • the data reduction methods used here (1-bit reduction methods) also make it possible to transmit music with high sound quality.
  • the music playback device can advantageously access a central music store, which is preferably a database for pieces of music. This can be integrated accordingly in a data processing system.
  • the music store is a central storage at home. This enables the storage to be created individually and saves possible retrieval costs from a commercial database.
  • the music memory expediently comprises a memory for. Frequently played pieces of music that can be played directly and can be accessed more quickly. Different listeners can also access the music storage, with expensive data transmission time and distance of the data transmission line can be kept as small as possible.
  • a buffer is provided in the music playback device in the motor vehicle, in which the audio signals are stored and from which they are sent to the loudspeaker.
  • a diskette station with diskettes and / or a hard disk and / or a cache memory and / or a CD-ROM and / or MD are advantageously provided as the storage device.
  • the music store comprises a playback unit and optically or magnetically playable information carriers for pieces of music.
  • magnetic tape cassettes, records, etc. can also be used as a storage medium.
  • the music playback device is advantageously characterized in that the playback unit has a changer for changing the information carriers. In this way, the playback sequence can be accelerated and any pauses between the playback of various information carriers can be shortened.
  • the receiver of the motor vehicle is preferably the radio. In this way, no new part is required, which saves material and assembly costs.
  • the car telephone is expediently used as the receiver in the motor vehicle.
  • the radio loudspeaker is advantageously used as the loudspeaker.
  • Fig. 1 is a schematic block diagram of a system with a central music store and
  • Fig. 2 is a schematic representation of the structure of a music playback device according to the invention.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates a system with a central unit 2 and a multiplicity of music playback devices 4 which can access the central unit 2.
  • the central unit 2 comprises a central memory 10, which can be connected to a computer, not shown.
  • the central memory 10 can contain a magazine arrangement of records with a player or magnetic or optical records with stored sound information.
  • the central memory 10 is connected via a bus line 12 to an input / output unit 14, which can be equipped with a control unit, a computer, etc. in accordance with the design and configuration of the central memory.
  • a plurality of remote data transmission lines 16 are connected to the input / output unit 14 for example, it is an ISDN connection.
  • the remote data transmission lines 16 are each connected or also bundled to transmitters 18 which transmit the correspondingly transformed music data (cf. arrows 20).
  • the corresponding receivers 24, 26, 28 (cf. arrows 22) are connected via lines 30, 32, 34 to receiver devices 36, 38, 40 which are provided in motor vehicles.
  • the function of the system shown in FIG. 1 is as follows. If it is desired to play a certain piece of music using one of the music playback devices 36, 38, 40, a corresponding control command is sent via an operating input unit (not shown) of the music playback device (arrow 22).
  • the receiver unit connected to the transmitter 18 receives these commands (cf. arrow 20) and transmits them via the remote data transmission lines 16 to the input / output unit 14 of the central memory 10.
  • the relevant piece of music is played there or called up from a data carrier and converted into um ⁇ reverse direction as data signals to the music player concerned.
  • FIG. 1 A further exemplary embodiment of the music playback device according to the invention is illustrated in FIG.
  • the music store is a central storage at home, and a personal computer 50 is provided for access to the music store and data transmission.
  • a modem 52 is connected to the personal computer 50, by means of which the music data are transmitted to a transmitter 56 via a remote data transmission line in the form of an ISDN connection 54.
