A conversion unit that converts the data signal extracted by the selection unit into a display signal; a control unit that processes the display signal from the conversion unit according to a display format that can be arbitrarily set; The display unit includes a separate display device for displaying the character information based on the above display format based on the signal processed by the control unit, and the processing signal from the control unit includes infrared rays, electric waves, and the like. This is achieved by a character information receiving / displaying device characterized by being transmitted wirelessly to a display device.

[0009]

[Action]

 According to the above configuration, by operating the selection unit, a channel related to desired character information is selected from the data signals related to character information of multiple channels, the data signal is taken out, and a data signal related to the character information is selected. Based on this, the character information is displayed on the display unit in the display format set in the control unit.Therefore, the selection unit selects the channel for the character information desired to be displayed from the multi-channel information. You can select to display the character information for that channel.

Then, when displaying the character information of the channel, by setting an arbitrary display format, for example, the speed and brightness of the display in the control unit, the character information of the above-mentioned channel is desired. Since various types of character information provided as multi-channel character information can be displayed in the desired display format, the character information of The visibility of the display can be improved.

Further, since the processed signal from the control unit is transmitted to the display device by a wireless method using infrared rays, radio waves, etc., in the case of the conventional case of performing the operation via a cable, for example, When the display device is installed outdoors, problems such as lengthening of the cable and relatively large transmission loss are solved, and the cable becomes an obstacle.

【Example】

 Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings. 1 and 2 show an embodiment of a character information receiving / displaying device according to the present invention. The character information receiving / displaying device 10 comprises a receiving device 11 and a display device 21.

As shown in FIG. 3, the receiving device 11 receives a desired signal from a receiving unit 12 to which a multi-channel broadcast signal from an information source such as a cable broadcast should be input, and a receiving signal from the receiving unit 12. The selection unit 13 for extracting the data signal relating to the character information of the broadcast channel, the conversion unit 14 for converting the data signal extracted by the selection unit 13 into the display signal, and corresponding to the display format that can be arbitrarily set, The control unit 15 includes a control unit 15 that processes the display signal from the conversion unit 14 into a display control signal, and an output unit 16 that outputs the display control signal from the control unit 15. The selection section 13 is adapted to receive a selection signal from a selection operation key 13a for selecting a broadcast channel.

Further, as shown in FIG. 3, the display device 21 includes an input unit 22 connected to the output unit 16 of the receiving device 11, and an input unit 22 connected to the input unit 22, so that the receiving device 11 has Based on the display control signal processed by the control unit 15, the control unit 23 that reads out the font data or the like for the character code from the ROM 23a and sends out the display drive signal, and the display drive signal from the control unit 23. A display unit 25 for displaying the character information based on the above-mentioned display format via the control circuit 24.

Here, as shown in FIG. 1, the receiving device 11 is housed in a case 17, and the front operation panel of the case 17 has a power switch 17 a, a display panel 17 b, and a band switching unit. Switch 17c, channel changeover switch 17d, input switch 17e, input end switch 17f, cancel switch 17g, time setting changeover switch 17h, mode changeover switch 17i, timer changeover switch 17j, reservation changeover switch 17k, time display changeover switch 17m. In addition, a display speed switching switch (not shown) and a brightness adjusting switch (not shown) are provided on the rear surface.

The band changeover switch 17c, the channel changeover switch 17d, the input switch 17e, the input end switch 17f and the cancel switch 17g constitute the selection operation key 13a.

The output unit 16 of the receiving device 11 modulates the display control signal from the control unit 15 into a radio wave and transmits it, and the input unit 21 of the display device 21 receives the radio wave and displays it. It demodulates to the indicated control conversion and outputs to the control unit 23.

The character information receiving / displaying device 10 according to the present invention is configured as described above, and operates the input switch 17e on the front operation panel to switch to the band / channel input mode to switch the band. By operating the switch 17c or the channel switching switch 17d, a plurality of bands, for example, 12 bands from A to L, or each channel, for example, 99 channels from 1 to 99 are sequentially, that is, The band / channel switching is completed by operating the input end switch 17f after switching in ascending order by one switching switch and by descending order by the other switching switch. At this time, if the cancel switch 17g is operated instead of operating the input end switch 17f, the band / channel switching is canceled.

In this way, when the desired band / channel is selected, the reception device 11 causes the selection unit 13 to correspond to the selected band and channel in the multi-channel broadcast signal from the reception unit 12. The data signal relating to the character information is taken out, and the data signal is converted into a display signal by the conversion unit 14 by adding control data adapted to the display device 21.

In addition, when the display control switch is operated, the display mode can be switched.

In this way, the radio wave that carries the display control signal sent from the receiving device 11 is received by the input unit 22 of the display device 21, demodulated into a display control signal, and the control unit 23. Based on this display control signal, the control unit 23 reads the font data or the like for the character code from the ROM 23a and outputs it to the display unit 25 via the display drive control circuit 24, thus The character information based on the display format can be displayed on the display unit 25.

The output unit 16 and the input unit 22 are bidirectional so that not only the signal can be sent from the receiving device 11 to the display device 21, but also the signal can be sent from the display device 21 to the receiving device 11. It can also be configured as a two-way transmission / reception system.

In this case, in the case of the radio wave system, as shown in FIG. 4A, the output unit 16 and the input unit 22 are bidirectional transmitting / receiving devices, and in the case of the infrared system, the output unit 16 and the input unit 22 are The output unit 16 and the input unit 22 are configured by including a light emitting device and a light receiving device, respectively.
