Abstract

PURPOSE:To effectively repulse a door-to-door salesman, a burgler and annoyance by arbitrarily registering and sending a voice message. CONSTITUTION:A voice message accumulator 17, a control circuit 18 to control the registration and sending of the voice message, and operation instructing switches 19 to 21 are provided. The message conforming to circumstances is selected from a selective key 21, and by pushing down a sending key 20, the message can be sent to the other party. For the registration of the voice, the selective key 21, the registration key 19 and a transmitter 14 are used, and the arbitrary message can be registered at an arbitrary selective number by means of the arbitrary voice. Thus, the arbitrary voice message can be accumulated and sent so as to repulse the door-todoor salesman, etc.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to an intercom system used in homes, and more particularly to an intercom system equipped with a message sending function.

[Prior Art] FIG. 3 is a circuit diagram of a conventional intercom system, and FIG. 4 is an external view of an intercom device in the intercom system of FIG. 3.

In FIG. 3, 00 is an intercom side block, and 01 is an outphone side block. Further, 11 and 21 are receivers, 12 and 22 are induction coils, 13 and 23 are balance circuits, 14 and 24 are transmitters, and 15 is a chime. Furthermore, 16 is an off-hook switch (off when on-hook) of the handset, and 26 is a chime button.

On the other hand, in FIG. 4, 30 is a handset and 31 is a speaker.

A conventional intercom system with such a configuration is
It only had the simple function of allowing conversations between an outphone installed near a gate and an intercom installed inside the room.

[Problems to be Solved] The above-mentioned conventional intercom system only allows conversation between the outphone and the interphone, and does not have a particularly effective means of repelling pushy sales or harassment from the outphone. The person on the intercom had no choice but to repel them using his own voice. However, in ordinary households, where the majority of users are housewives, the person responding to the service is a housewife, so there is a problem in that damage can be caused by exploiting their weaknesses.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide an intercom system capable of storing and transmitting arbitrary voice messages in order to repel pushy sales.

[Means for Solving Problems] In order to achieve the above object, an interphone system of the present invention includes an interphone and an outphone, and the interphone has an operation instruction switch and an arbitrary voice message that is stored and transmitted. The apparatus is configured to include a voice message storage means, and a control means for controlling the voice message storage means to store and transmit voice according to instructions from the operation instruction switch.

[Example] Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in detail based on the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a circuit diagram of an intercom system according to an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is an external view of an intercom device in the intercom system of FIG. Note that parts common to or corresponding to those of the conventional example are represented by the same reference numerals.

In FIG. 1, 17 is a voice message storage device, 18
19 is a message registration key 20 is a voice message sending key; 21 is a selection key; and the control circuit 18 performs control based on each of the keys 19-21. Note that each of the keys 19 to 21 serves as an operation instruction switch.

On the other hand, in FIG. 2, 32 is a selection key (0 to 9);
3 is a voice message registration key, and 34 is a voice message sending key.

In the above configuration, the handset 11.14 on the interphone side
is off-hook, the off-hook switch 16
is closed, and you can talk to the outgoing/receiving phone 621.24 on the outphone side. In this respect, it is similar to a conventional intercom system.

By the way, for example, if the other person is trying to push you or harass you, responding with a powerful male voice will have a greater effect on repelling them.

Therefore, in this embodiment, by selecting a message at the time using the selection key 21 and pressing down on the send key 20, the message can be sent to the other party. At this time, the control circuit 18 controls the address of the voice message storage device 17 and sends messages based on key operations.

For example, the following voices may be registered in advance depending on the selection key, and selected depending on the situation.

Note that when making selections, you should do so while looking at the memo of the message.

〈Message example〉 00..."(in a low, deep voice) I have changed a bit, but what are the requirements?" Ol... "We are on time now, so please do it next time." 02... " Anyway, do it next time. If you keep nagging me too much, I'll call the police.'' 03... Also, you can register your voice locally as you like. That is, by using the selection key 21, the registration key 19, and the transmitter 14, it is possible to register any message in any voice to any selection number.

As described above, the intercom system of this embodiment has a selection key and a voice storage device, and allows any voice message to be stored for each combination of selection keys, while the voice storage device stores an arbitrary voice message for each combination of selection keys. This allows voice messages stored in the device to be sent to the outphone at will.

It should be noted that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, but includes various modifications within the scope of the gist. For example, in the embodiments described above, music could be sent instead of a voice message so that the person can wait comfortably while being greeted at the door.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, the present invention enables any voice message to be arbitrarily registered and sent.
This has the effect of providing an intercom system that can effectively repel pushy sales, coercion, and harassment.
