DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a key telephone apparatus.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art In a conventional key telephone main unit, when transferring an incoming call, a key telephone which answers the call once picks up the telephone, answers the call, holds the incoming call, calls the transfer destination,
The receiver of the key telephone at the transfer source is kept on-hook as it is, and all control is thereafter transferred to the transfer destination.

[0003]

When the incoming call is transferred, the conventional key telephone main unit described above turns on the hook of the key telephone of the transfer source before the transfer destination answers the call, and thereafter all the key telephone handsets are transferred. Since the control is delegated to the transfer destination, the serviceability deteriorates, as the caller has to repeatedly say the same message to the transfer destination. To avoid this, it takes a long time for the incoming call to be transferred because the transfer source informs the transfer destination of the destination (caller) of the incoming call after waiting for the transfer destination's response and then goes on-hook on the transfer receiver. Is required.

[0004]

A key telephone main unit according to the present invention comprises a key telephone unit accommodating a plurality of key telephones, an external line unit accommodating a plurality of external lines, and a control circuit for controlling the entire main unit. The key telephone apparatus includes a voice recording circuit that records and reproduces voice message information from the key telephone in response to the incoming call on the outside line. After the transfer, the keypad phone
As a result of the recording start operation by the input of the talk number , the storage means for temporarily storing the voice message information on the incoming call for each outside line in the voice recording circuit, and the responding key telephone set perform the transfer operation. after the the response of key telephone rolling <br/> Okusaki, wherein were recorded in the audio recording circuit to reproduce a voice message information, the information is sent to the voice message information delivered to the destination EKT Means.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing one embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a sequence diagram showing an example of an operation in the present embodiment.

In FIG. 1, a key telephone main unit 1 of this embodiment includes a key telephone unit 3 for interfacing with key telephones 41, 42 to 4n, an external line unit 6 for interfacing with external lines 71 to 7m, and an initial response upon receiving a call. It comprises a voice recording circuit 5 for recording a message about a caller from a caller, and a main control circuit 2 for controlling the whole key telephone main unit 1.

Next, the transfer operation of this embodiment will be described with reference to FIGS.
This will be described with reference to FIG.

First, when an incoming call 201 enters the outside line 71, the outside line unit 6 notifies the control circuit 2 of an incoming call instruction 202. The control circuit 2 notifies the key telephone unit 3 of the key receiving instruction 203 so that the key telephone corresponding to the outside line 71 can be received. When the incoming key telephone 41 responds to the incoming call 204, the key telephone unit 3 returns a button incoming response 206 to the control circuit 2. The control circuit 2 notifies the outside line unit 6 of the connection request 207 and notifies the key telephone unit 3 of the button connection completion 20.
Notify 8 and connect.

After this, the temporary hold operation 2 of the key telephone 41 is performed.
09, the key telephone unit 3 notifies the control circuit 2 of the button temporary hold request 210.
Sends the hold request 211 to the external line unit 6 and returns the button temporary hold completion 212 to the key telephone unit 3 at the same time as waiting for the next request from the key telephone 41.

The transfer destination address from the key telephone 41 is notified to the control circuit 2 from the key telephone unit 3 as button dial information 213, and a dial completion notification 214.
Is notified from the key telephone unit 3 to the control circuit 2, the control circuit 2 instructs the voice recording circuit 5 to start recording 215.
Notify. Recording start response 216 from the voice recording circuit 5
Is returned, the control circuit 2 notifies the key telephone unit 3 of a button recording start instruction 217, and the key telephone 41
Wait for a voice message from.

When the input of the voice message is completed and the operation completion 218 of the key telephone 41 is notified from the key telephone unit 3 to the control circuit 2 as a button disconnection request 219, the control circuit 2 instructs the voice recording circuit 5 to end recording. 220
At the same time, and notifies the key telephone unit 3 of the completion of button disconnection 221 and terminates the processing for the key telephone 41.

When the recording end response 222 is returned from the voice recording circuit 5, the control circuit 2 notifies the key telephone unit 3 of the key receiving instruction 223 to make the key telephone set corresponding to the transfer destination receive. When the key telephone 42 responds 225 to the ring tone 224, the key telephone unit 3 returns a key response 226 to the control circuit 2.

The control circuit 2 notifies the audio recording circuit 5 of a reproduction start instruction 227, and the audio recording circuit 5
When 28 is returned, the control circuit 2 notifies the key telephone unit 3 of a button reproduction start instruction 229. When the reproduction of the voice message is completed and the reproduction completion notification 230 is returned from the voice recording circuit 5, the control circuit 2 notifies the external line unit 6 of the connection request 231 and notifies the key telephone unit 3 of the button connection completion 232. Connect the call to the key telephone.

[0015]

As described above, according to the present invention, when an incoming call is forwarded, the responder temporarily suspends the incoming call and then forwards the incoming call.
Start recording by entering the telephone number of the destination key telephone
By recording the information of the other party of the incoming call in the voice recording circuit and immediately hooking up the handset and letting everything go to the transfer destination thereafter, it is possible to respond finely at the transfer destination and improve serviceability. There is an effect that the time spent for transferring an incoming call as in the related art can be reduced without lowering.
