Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

0001

[Industrial Field of Application] The present invention allows a subscriber to dial a dial code number during a call, thereby receiving a push-tone telephone that responds to the dial tone (dial pulse tone).
The present invention relates to a service communication system capable of transmitting button sounds to a calling party.

0002

[Prior Art] Conventionally, touch-tone button signals (hereinafter referred to as P
There is a system in which various services are provided by a subscriber dialing a B signal.

[0003] In general, in order for a DP signal type subscriber to transmit a PB signal to the other party, he or she must either use the DP/PB signal switching function attached to some telephones, or
Alternatively, a method using a separate device that generates a PB signal has been known.

[0004] In addition, speed dialing is used because the caller needs to dial many numbers such as the other party's subscriber number, password, and service code. It was up to the person's number.

[0005]

The above-mentioned service system has a problem in that the service cannot be received unless a PB telephone subscriber or a device that generates a PB signal is used in conjunction with the service system.

[0006] Furthermore, in order to receive these services, the caller is required to dial a number of information such as a subscriber number, password, and service code. Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and even a subscriber who does not have the function of transmitting a PB signal can send P to the other party during a call.
The technical problem is to make it possible to transmit a B signal, and to make it possible to register a series of dials from the other party's subscriber number to passwords, services, etc. in the speed dial, and to simplify the operation of the caller.

The service signal storage means 5 is a means for storing a service signal corresponding to the dial code number from the subscriber 1, and the signal control means 4 stores the service signal requested by the subscriber 1 from the storage means 5. It is a means of selecting and transmitting signals.

Furthermore, the service providing means 3 is a means for providing a service by receiving a service signal. During a call between the subscriber 1 and the service providing means 3, when the signal control means 4 detects the dial code number from the subscriber 1, the signal control means 4 interrupts the call line (L in the figure) and transmits the service signal. A service signal transmission control system is adopted in which a service signal corresponding to the dial code number is read from the storage means 5 and is transmitted to the service providing means 3.

[0011] The signal control means 4 also controls the communication line (L in the figure) after a certain period of time has elapsed after transmitting the service signal.
It is possible to interrupt the interruption and restore the subscriber 1 and the service providing means 3 to the original normal conversation state.

Furthermore, the service signal storage means 5 includes:
The system is equipped with a tone generator 6 which sends out a touch-tone button tone corresponding to the dial pulse tone from the subscriber 1.

[0013]

[Operation] According to the present invention, while subscriber 1 is on a call,
When a dial code number is transmitted as a service signal transmission command, the dial number signal is transmitted to the signal control means 4.

The signal control means 4 selects a service signal corresponding to the dial code number from among the service signals stored in the service signal storage means 5. Then, the signal control means 4 interrupts the communication line L connecting the subscriber 1 and the service providing means 3 and transmits the selected service signal to the service providing means 3.

[0015] The service providing means 3 that has received the service signal provides a service according to the service signal. Here, the signal control means 4 interrupts the interruption to the communication line L after a certain period of time after transmitting the service signal, and restores the communication line L to its original talking state.
