JPH037454A - Automatic answering telephone set - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To record the information sent automatically even during the absence of the user by automatically receiving message recording during absence transferred automatically from an automatic answering telephone set of a caller side after the transmission of a key dial signal (PB signal) and recording it. CONSTITUTION:A caller automatic answering telephone set reproduces and sends a message informing the transfer request. After the end of transmission of a reply message, a preset PB signal is sent from a PB signal dialing circuit 15 for a preset period. When the password of the caller automatic answering telephone set is the same that in the sent PB signal, the caller automatic answering telephone set transfers automatically the message recorded and the message transferred automatically is recorded by a recording reproduction circuit 13. Thus, even during the absence of the user, the message transferred automatically is received and recorded automatically.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] The present invention relates to an answering machine.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, this type of answering machine has a function that automatically forwards calls to a pre-stored phone number with recorded messages while you are away. The system is configured to transfer recorded messages by receiving a PIN number from a person using a push-button dial signal (hereinafter referred to as PB signal), and if the receiving party is an answering machine, The configuration was such that the user manually recorded the recorded messages that were forwarded to them.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

With the conventional answering machine described above, when a message recorded while the other party is away is transferred to the other party's answering machine, the user manually sends a PIN code using a PB signal, and then the message that is automatically forwarded is transferred to the answering machine. Since it is configured to record manually, it has the disadvantage that it cannot automatically receive and record automatically forwarded business matters if no one is using it.

[Means to solve the problem]

The answering machine of the present invention includes a signal sending means for automatically sending a response message when a call arrives, and then sending a push button dial signal preset as a PIN code signal for a preset period; and recording means for automatically recording information.

〔Example〕

Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a functional block diagram showing one embodiment of the present invention.

In FIG. 1, the present embodiment includes a line control circuit (hereinafter referred to as H3) 17 including an I11 output signal detection circuit for detecting a calling signal from a telephone line, and a handset cell l to 12. fls
17, a voice recording/reproducing circuit 13 for recording and reproducing a response message at the time of an incoming call and a message received from the telephone line, and a PB signal receiving circuit 14 for receiving the PB double signal from the telephone line. , a PB signal transmitting circuit 15 that automatically answers an incoming call and then transmits a PB double signal as a predetermined password for a preset period, and a control circuit 16 that controls the entire answering machine of this embodiment. It is configured as follows.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be explained.

When there is an automatic forwarding call from the calling party's answering machine through the telephone line, the H917 detects the lIr output signal and automatically sends out a response message by the 0-order voice recording/playback circuit 13 that automatically receives the call. (e.g., "Please tell me your business after the beep.")

At this time, the calling party's answering machine also plays and sends a message informing that the call has been forwarded.

In this embodiment, after the response message is sent out, a preset PB multiplication signal is sent to the PB signal transmitting circuit 15 for a preset period.
If the signal is the same as the sent PB double signal PIN, the calling party's answering machine will automatically forward the message that has already been recorded.
The answering machine of this embodiment records the automatically transferred message in the voice recording/reproducing circuit 13. When the transfer is finished,
The phone lines for both parties are automatically disconnected.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, the present invention provides a signal transmitting means that transmits a preset PB multiplied signal for a preset period instead of a confirmation tone after automatically sending out a response message when a call arrives, and an answering machine for the calling party after sending the PB signal. By having a recording means for automatically receiving a recording of business during an answering machine automatically transferred from a telephone set and recording the message during an answering machine, the information automatically transferred can be recorded even when the user is not present.
