Since the gateway information is read and transmitted, and subsequently the telephone number of the called party is transmitted, one operation merely for transmitting the gateway information can be omitted.

The matters to be described below relate to a part of the functions of the telephone device and are also common to a part of the functions of the portable telephone device. I will also serve.

The details of one embodiment of the present invention are shown in FIG.
This will be described with reference to FIGS.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the structure of a telephone device according to one embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a schematic diagram showing a transmission method for transmitting gateway information by pressing a direct button of the telephone device according to one embodiment of the present invention, and FIGS. 3 and 4 are telephone devices according to one embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 7 is a schematic diagram showing a transmission method of transmitting gateway information by the operation saving method of FIG. FIG. 5 is a block diagram showing a structure of a main part of the mobile phone device according to one embodiment of the present invention.

In FIG. 1, the telephone device comprises a master unit 1 and at least one slave unit 2 connected to a line, and the master unit 1 and the slave unit 2 are each within a certain distance (100
１５０150 m), enabling cordless communication in both directions.

Although the telephone device described in FIG. 1 is cordless, the telephone device itself may be either cordless or not.

Under the control of the control unit 3, the base unit 1 transmits and receives voice signals to and from the other party of the telephone, and bidirectionally communicates with the slave unit 2 through the wireless transmission unit 4 and the wireless reception unit 5 of the cordless communication unit. Perform cordless communication. The control unit 3 includes a CPU and RA
It is composed of an M, a ROM, etc., and is responsible for overall control of the master unit 1. This base unit 1 has a receiver 6 connected by a cord.
When the receiver 6 is picked up and off-hook, a cordless call with the slave unit 2 (extension call) and a call with the outside through a line (external call) are possible. In addition, since base unit 1 is also provided with speakerphone communication unit 7, when the switch of speakerphone communication unit 7 is pressed and off-hook, it is possible to make a free-to-use call. Since the base unit 1 is equipped with an answering machine 8, if the bell does not go off-hook on both the base unit 1 and the handset 2 even if a bell comes in from the line, the answering machine unit 8 is activated. Incoming messages can be recorded. At this time, if the off-hook is not performed even if the bell rings a predetermined number of times (for example, six times), the control unit 3 switches the changeover switch 9 from the call circuit unit 10 to the answering machine unit 8 side.

Since the base unit 1 is provided with the electronic telephone directory 11, when the operation unit 12 is operated to search the electronic telephone directory 11, a target telephone number can be displayed on the display unit 13. Further, since the base unit 1 is compatible with Internet telephones, if the provider's telephone number, user ID, password, and the like are registered in the gateway information registration unit 14 as gateway information in advance, the direct When the button is pressed, the gateway information registered in the gateway information registration unit 14 can be transmitted to the gateway.

Various methods can be selected when making an Internet telephone call from the base unit 1. In any case, it is assumed that the gateway information is already registered in the gateway information registration unit 14.

First, as shown in FIG. 2, a method of transmitting the gateway information by pressing the direct button of the operation unit 12 will be described. It is a so-called direct button mode. In this mode, a two-stage transmission operation is required.

The caller (user) operates the operation unit 12 to search the electronic telephone directory 11, selects the telephone number of the called party surrounded by the dashed block, and displays it on the display unit 13. The contents of the output instruction storage unit 15 corresponding to the selected telephone number indicate that there is no instruction to output the gateway information. Then, as a transmission operation in the first stage, the direct button of the operation unit 12 is pressed to transmit the gateway information registered in the gateway information registration unit 14 to the gateway. Then, as a second stage transmission operation, when the telephone number of the called party being displayed on the display unit 13 is transmitted from the electronic telephone directory 11 by operating the operation unit 12, the caller side and the called party side Between the gateways, a call is made from the calling party to the called party via the Internet.

Next, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, a method will be described in which the gateway information can be transmitted together with only the operation of transmitting the telephone number selected from the electronic telephone directory 11. FIG. In short, it is the shortened mode.

FIG. 3 shows a case where a telephone number and gateway information are paired and registered in the electronic telephone directory 11, and FIG. 4 shows the presence / absence of an instruction to output the telephone number and the gateway information corresponding to the telephone number. This is a description of a case where the information is registered in the electronic telephone directory 11 as a pair.

In FIG. 3, the caller (user) operates the operation unit 12 to search the electronic telephone directory 11, selects the telephone number of the called party surrounded by the dashed block, and displays it on the display unit 13. To be displayed. The contents of the output instruction storage unit 15 corresponding to the selected telephone number indicate that there is no instruction to output the gateway information.

When registering a telephone number in the electronic telephone directory 11, first, a telephone number to be registered is displayed on the display unit 13. Then, a predetermined operation is performed on the telephone number to be registered by the operation unit 12 (for example, a direct button is pressed), and the gateway information registered in the gateway information registration unit 14 is read. In FIG. 3, the telephone number is prefixed with "@", which is the gateway information mark. Then, the telephone number being displayed and the read gateway information are paired and registered in the electronic telephone directory 11. That is, since the gateway information has been registered in the gateway information registration unit 14, the data in the gateway information registration unit 14 is copied to the electronic telephone directory 11, thereby simplifying the input operation of the gateway information to the electronic telephone directory 11. is there.

As the first-stage transmission operation, when the telephone number of the called party being displayed on the display unit 13 is transmitted from the electronic telephone directory 11 by operating the operation unit 12, the electronic telephone directory 11 automatically transmits the telephone number. Is transmitted to the gateway, and the telephone number of the called party is subsequently transmitted to the gateway. In other words, apparently, one operation of transmitting the gateway information is omitted, and the operation procedure for making an Internet call is not different from the operation procedure for making a normal call. In this manner, a call is connected from the caller to the callee via the Internet between the gateways of the caller and the callee.

In FIG. 4, the caller (user) operates the operation unit 12 to search the electronic telephone directory 11 and selects the telephone number of the called party surrounded by the dashed block to display the display unit 13 To be displayed. The contents of the output instruction storage unit 15 corresponding to the selected telephone number indicate that there is an instruction to output gateway information.

Here, a method of setting the presence / absence of an instruction to output gateway information will be described. When registering a telephone number in the electronic telephone directory 11, first, a telephone number to be registered is displayed on the display unit 13. Then, a predetermined operation is performed on the telephone number to be registered by the operation unit 12, and the output instruction storage unit 15 is stored with the presence of the gateway information output instruction, and the telephone number and the presence or absence of the gateway information output instruction are registered in the electronic telephone directory 11. Keep it. For example, a flag may be set as a mark indicating that there is a gateway information output instruction. In this way, the method of registering the telephone number and the presence / absence of the gateway information output instruction in the electronic telephone directory 11 is more electronic than the method of registering the entire gateway information paired with the telephone number in FIG. The storage capacity used by the telephone directory can be reduced.

As a first stage transmission operation, when the telephone number of the called party being displayed on the display unit 13 is to be transmitted from the electronic telephone directory 11 by operating the operation unit 12, the control unit 3 receives the incoming call. Before transmitting the telephone number of the caller, the gateway information registered in the gateway information registration unit 14 is read and transmitted to the gateway, and thereafter, the telephone number of the called party is transmitted. That is, the control unit 3 also reads the contents of the output instruction storage unit 15 when reading the telephone number of the electronic telephone directory 11,
The contents of the output instruction storage unit 15 corresponding to the selected telephone number are always known. If the contents of the output instruction storage unit 15 include an instruction to output gateway information, the control unit 3 determines that an Internet telephone is to be used for this telephone number, and reads the gateway information registered in the gateway information registration unit 14. It is. In other words, apparently, one operation of transmitting the gateway information is omitted, and the operation procedure for making an Internet call is not different from the operation procedure for making a normal call. In this manner, a call is connected from the caller to the callee via the Internet between the gateways of the caller and the callee.

Claims 5 to 8 relate to the description of the portable telephone device, and FIG. 5 used in this description shows only the main part for simplification. The mobile phone device 16 shown in FIG. 5 also has the same gateway information registration unit 14 and electronic telephone directory 15 as the main device 1 shown in FIG. 1, and if the main device 1 and the mobile phone device 16 are interchanged, Since the description of the main unit 1 can be diverted as it is, a duplicate description will be omitted. However, in claims 1 to 4, the base unit 1 transmits and receives voice signals through a telephone line, whereas in claims 5 to 8, the mobile phone device 16 transmits and receives voice and image signals through wireless. Is the difference.

As described above, in the prior art, to make an Internet telephone call, the gateway information had to be transmitted in the first operation and the telephone number had to be transmitted in the second operation. However, in the present invention, the trouble of transmitting the gateway information in the operation of the first stage is hidden by the telephone device because it is automatically processed by the telephone device.
Since only the operation of transmitting the telephone number is required in the stepwise operation, the Internet telephone can be quickly made.

[0053]

As described above, according to the present invention, an electronic telephone directory for registering a telephone number while transmitting and receiving a voice signal through a line, and a gateway information registration unit for registering gateway information necessary for an Internet telephone are provided. A telephone device having an output instruction storage unit for storing the presence or absence of an output instruction of gateway information for a telephone number registered in the electronic telephone directory, and an output instruction of gateway information for a telephone number selected from the electronic telephone directory. Is stored in the output instruction storage unit, the gateway information registered in the gateway information registration unit is transmitted to the gateway, and then the telephone number is transmitted.

Further, according to the present invention, a portable telephone having an electronic telephone directory for registering a telephone number and a gateway information registering section for registering gateway information necessary for Internet telephone calls while transmitting and receiving voice signals and the like through wireless communication. A telephone device, comprising: an output instruction storage unit that stores the presence / absence of an instruction to output gateway information for a telephone number registered in an electronic telephone directory; and an output instruction to output gateway information to a telephone number selected from the electronic telephone directory.
