Abstract

PURPOSE:To simplify operations by setting the state of cutting or holding a line according to whether a hand set is loaded in advance from the transmitter loading part side of a cradle part or from the receiver loading part side. CONSTITUTION:A hook switch 3 is provided at a receiver loading part 1a and a holding switch 4 is provided at a transmitter loading part 16. According to whether a hand set 2 is loaded in advance form the receiver loading part 1a side of a cradle part 1 or from the transmitter loading part 1b side, a central processing unit 5 senses the operational states of the holding switch 4 and the hook switch 4 and based on the result, a speech network circuit 6 can be set to the state of cutting or holding the line.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Industrial Application) The present invention relates to a multifunctional telephone equipped with a line hold function.

(Prior art) Conventionally, the hold function on multi-function telephones has been used to keep the line connected when you are busy with other things during a call, so as not to leak unnecessary surrounding sounds to the other party. It is used for the purpose of

To switch from a call state to a hold state on a telephone equipped with this hold function, turn on the hold switch to put the line on hold, place the handset in the cradle part of the telephone body, and then hook the handset to the cradle part. This is done by putting the switch on-hook.

When the call is resumed, the user picks up the handset to turn the hook switch off-hook, and then turns the hold switch off to release the hold state.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, with conventional telephones, it is necessary to perform two operations: turning on the hold switch and placing the handset in the cradle. Furthermore, in order to release the handset from the hold state, it is necessary to perform two operations: picking up the handset from the cradle and turning off the hold switch.

Therefore, the user is forced to perform double operations as described above, both when the line is on hold and when the line is released from hold.
You will feel that the operation is cumbersome.

The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a multifunction telephone that can be placed on hold simply by placing the handset in the cradle.

(Means for Solving the Problems) A multifunctional telephone according to the present invention includes a hook switch that detects an on-footer or off-footer state, and a hold switch that can switch between a call state and a hold state in an off-hook state. In addition, the multifunction telephone is configured such that a handset and a handset are placed on a handset rest and a handset rest formed in the cradle part, A hook inch is provided on either the handset rest or the handset rest, and a hold switch is provided on the other, and the handset is placed on the handset rest side of the cradle first. It is possible to set whether the line is in a disconnected state or on hold depending on whether the handset is placed on the handset rest side first.

(Function) For example, if a hold switch is provided on the handset rest of the cradle and a hook switch is provided on the handset rest, the handset in a talking state can be removed from the handset rest of the cradle. If placed first, the hook switch will go on-hook before the hold switch, and the line will be disconnected. Also, if you place the handset in a talking state on the handset holder side of the cradle first,
The hold switch is turned on before the hook switch, and the hold state is entered.

Additionally, if the handset rest of the cradle is equipped with a hook switch and the handset rest is equipped with a hold switch, place the handset in a talking state first on the handset rest of the cradle. If you place it, the hold switch will be turned on before the hook inch, and it will be on hold. Additionally, if you place the handset in a talking state on the handset mount side of the cradle first, the hook inch will go to the on-footer state before the hold switch.
The line becomes disconnected.

(Example) Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram showing the main structure of a multifunction telephone according to this embodiment, and FIG. 2 is a block diagram of the overall structure of the multifunction telephone.

That is, this multi-function telephone has a multifunction telephone in which a handset rest part 1a and a handset rest part 1b are formed in a cradle part 1, on which a handset 2a and a handset 2b of a handset 2 are placed. This is a functional telephone, in which a hook switch 3 is provided on a handset holder 1a, and a hold switch 4 is provided on a transmitter holder 1b.

Depending on whether the handset 2 is placed on the handset holder 1a side or the transmitter holder 1b side of the cradle 1 first, the operating state of the hold switch 4 and the hook switch 3 is determined. is sensed by the central processing bag W5, and based on the result, the speech network circuit 6 is set to either a line disconnection state or a hold state.

The central processing bag W5 includes a melody control means 5a, a hold control means 5b, an m control means 5C, and a sock-sui-nochi control means 5.
d, a hold switch control means 5e, and a switch control means 5f which perform mutual input/output control of each of these control sections.

The hold switch 4 is configured to inform the hold switch control means 5e whether the hold switch 4 is on or off.

The hook switch 3 uses a hook switch control means 5d to determine whether the hook switch 3 is in an off-footer state or an off-footer state.
This is done to inform the public.

Further, the input terminal ring 7 and the speech network circuit 6 are connected when the hook switch 3 is in an on-hook state.

The network control circuit 8 is controlled to be in an on state or an off state by a signal sent from the network control means 5c. When in the on state, the input terminal chip 9 and the speech network circuit 6 are connected to form a direct current loop that allows communication.

The speech network circuit 6 is configured to control whether it is in a call state or a hold state by a signal sent from the hold control means 5b. Then, when in a call state, the speech network circuit 6 and the handset 2 are connected, and a call can be made through the handset 2. Further, when in a hold state, the speech network circuit 6 and the melody generation circuit 10 are connected, and a melody is sent to the line through the melody generation circuit 10.

Next, the operating procedure for setting hold and disconnecting the circuit will be described.

When setting hold during a call, as shown in FIGS. 3(a) to 3(C), first place the handset 2 on the handset holder 1b side of the cradle 1, and then place the handset 2 on the receiver. Place it on the storage section 1a side.

Then, before the hook switch 3 enters the on-footer state, the central processing unit 5 senses that the hold switch 4 is turned on. Then, the central processing unit 5 sends a signal from the hold control means 5b to the speech network circuit 6 to inform the speech network circuit 6 of the hold status, and also sends a melody from the melody control means 5a to the speech network circuit B6 via the melody generation circuit 10. Send.

In addition, when disconnecting the circuit during a call, the handset 2
is placed first on the handset mount section 1a side of the cradle section 1, and then placed on the transmitter mount section 1b side. Then, before the hold switch 4 is turned on, the central processing unit 5 senses that the hook switch 3 is in the on-footer state. Then, the central processing unit 5 sends a signal informing the network control circuit 8 of circuit disconnection from the network control means 5c, and disconnects the speech network circuit 6 and the input terminal chip 9.

In this embodiment, the hook switch 3 is provided on the handset rest 1a, and the hold switch 4 is provided on the handset rest 1b, but the hold switch 4 is provided on the handset rest 1a,
A hook switch 3 may be provided on the telephone receiver 1b.

(Effects of the Invention) As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to set the hold state and the line disconnection state simply by placing the handset in the cradle, thereby simplifying the operation.
