Abstract

PURPOSE:To differentiate originating subscribers by means of set code numbers by providing a personal identification number analyzing section and a specific transfer mode corresponding to the analyzed results of the analyzing section and setting the personal identification numbers. CONSTITUTION:The personal identification number analyzing section 4 (5) built in a call transfer equipment 6 is provided with a number analyzing and personal identification number accumulating section 9 (11) and personal identification number colldting section 10 (12). A transmitted code number is collated with a register in the accumulating section 9 (11) and whether a message accumulating device 8 is to be actuated or a transfer equipment is to be actuated and the incoming call is to be transferred is identified in accordance with a collated result after the number is once stored in a number storing section 13 (14). The accumulating section 9 (11) is the registration section for accumulating personal identification numbers of the originating subscribers for whom the incoming calls are to be transferred and those for whom the incoming calls are to be connected directly in a specific presence mode and analyzes the accumulated code numbers at the time of code number collation. Therefore, such the need of a subscriber that all incoming calls are to be responded by means of automatic answering telephone except those from specific originating subscribers with whom the subscriber wants to talk directly can be satisfied.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Industrial Application Field) The present invention includes a message storage device that stores a message from a caller when an incoming call is received while the user is absent. The present invention relates to a service system for a telephone having a so-called answering machine function, and more specifically, a telephone having a function to transfer incoming calls to a predetermined terminal when the user is absent.

(Prior Art) A conventional service system for this type of telephone will be explained using diagram M4. In the figure, the call transfer device 43 is a separate device or is included in the receiving terminal 42 .

The message service function used when the receiving terminal 42 is absent, the so-called answering machine transfer function, is activated after the call is received.
The absent call transfer device R43 is activated to transfer the call to a preset address (terminal 44) regardless of the caller of the first calling terminal 41.

In other words, conventional telephones had only two forwarding functions: at-home mode and call forwarding mode.

(Problem to be Solved by the Invention) Therefore, the conventional call forwarding service activates the call forwarding device regardless of the caller's status if the caller is in call forwarding mode. There is no need for normal incoming calls to be forwarded to the customer in one minute with an answering machine message, but if you want to talk to a specific caller, or you want to be completely absent in case of an emergency. Call forwarding mode activates the call forwarding device regardless of the caller when the caller is actually absent in certain cases, the absentee mode activates the message storage device regardless of the caller, and the same as with ordinary telephones. Do you even require just home mode to make a call? A friend who can't make friends.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide an absentee telephone service system that can meet the above requirements.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a telephone service system during an absence, which has at least a specific transfer mode and an absence mode, a means for setting the mode, and an incoming call. If so, a mode confirmation unit that determines the set mode;
If the mode confirmation unit determines that the mode is the specific transfer mode, the message has been sent from the sender. #A number storage section for storing an identification number, a PIN storage section for storing a PIN for a caller, and a PIN number in the number storage section and a PIN stored in the PIN storage section. When the verification results in the PIN analysis section consisting of the PIN verification section and the PIN analysis section do not match.

! When no PIN is entered, or when the mode confirmation section determines that the caller is in absentee mode, a message storage device that is connected to the incoming call and stores messages from the caller, and a verification process in the PIN analysis section. When the results match.

It consists of a call transfer device that transfers the incoming call to a predetermined terminal.

(Example) Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram for explaining an embodiment of the telephone service system during absence according to the present invention. Figure 2 is the first
For the specific transfer mode shown in the figure.

FIG. 7 is a preliminary block diagram illustrating the flow of operations of a password analysis section and a call transfer device section when a password has been registered. FIG. 3 is a block diagram for explaining the flow of operations from the code number analysis unit to the message storage device when the code number is not registered in the specific transfer mode shown in FIG.

First, the overall flow of the present invention will be explained with reference to FIG.

When terminal 1 goes off-hook and makes a call to terminal 2.

Add a PIN to the phone number and send. In the receiving terminal 2, after confirming the mode set by the switching unit etc. in mode confirmation g3, the following operations are performed depending on the mode.

■When in absentee mode.

The message storage device 8 is operated regardless of whether the password is registered or not.

■When using specific transfer mode.

(It is analyzed by the al password analysis unit 4, and the message storage device 8 activates the 8f ID number not registered message when the password is not input.)

(b) On the other hand, when the PIN number has been registered, call forwarding fctt6
is activated to send a calling signal to the transfer destination terminal 7.

■When in specific home mode.

(a) The password is analyzed by the password analysis section 5, and if the password is not registered, the message storage device 8 is activated when the password is not input.

(b) On the other hand, when the #identification number has been registered, the ejection signal is continuously sent, and -i calls can be made.

■When in home mode.

To enable a general call in the same way as a general call.

The PIN number analysis unit 4 built into the call transfer device 6 is shown in FIGS. 2 and 3.
As shown in the figure, it is configured to include a number analysis/PIN storage section 9.11 and a password verification section 10.12, and the transmitted password ("4567" in FIG. 2, 000 in FIG. 3).
0'') is temporarily stored in the number storage section 13.14, and the number is checked against the register in the storage section 9.11, and depending on the verification result, the message storage device 8 is activated or the transfer device 4ILyt is activated. It is determined whether or not to transfer all the information.

The number analysis/PIN storage unit 9.11 is a registration unit for storing the ID number of the caller who should receive call forwarding, or who should make the entire call in the case of special at-home mode. Analyze the number given.

(Effects of the Invention) As explained above, the present invention provides a PIN number analysis section and a specific transfer mode corresponding thereto, so that it is possible to set an ELI PIN number, and to differentiate callers by setting the number. be able to. In other words, if you want to use an answering machine while you are away, but you also want to contact a specific caller by phone, you can make all the difference.
This has the effect of maintaining privacy, improving serviceability, and diversifying uses.
