JPH0686364A - Voice offer remote controller - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To use a receiver used for a radio headphone or the like by a user with a light load without feeling a sense of incompatibility by constituting a remote controller so that the voice of a reproducing and recording device can be offered to the user as the receiver. CONSTITUTION:Not only a television remote controller but also a voice receiver by radio are provided in a television remote controller, and one power source mechanism is shared. Then, a headphone terminal 1 for connecting the voice from the receiver to the headphone is provided at the side face of the television remote controller main body, and at the time of inserting a headphone jack, the voice can be offered to the user. And also, a mechanism which judges wether or not the headphone jack is set is incorporated in the terminal 1, and a power saving can be attained by driving the receiver in the remote controller according to the judged information, and the voice of a television main body can be automatically cut off by transmitting the judged information to the television main body. Thus, this device can be used without any inconvenience by the user at a remote place without losing mobility.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a remote control device used in general audio reproduction and recording devices using a wireless remote control such as audio, television and video equipment.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Originally, headphones are intended to provide a small number of users with the sound of a reproducing apparatus, and since they are worn on the body during use, they are infinitely lightweight, such as cords. It is ideal to avoid as much as possible the obstacles to mobility. However, in the past, most of them are wired, so they are not very mobile, and wireless is also considered.The ideal receiver, which is used as a wireless receiver, rather interferes with the user's behavior, so wireless It was a weak point of headphones and hindered its widespread use.

In the beginning of the wireless type headphones, the one with the receiver placed outside was used, but when the user moves, the receiver is also forced to move, so the wireless type with high mobility is also used. , I was not able to show its characteristics. In addition, there are some products that have a built-in receiver in the headphones and are designed to be completely cordless, but in addition to the weight of the headphones, the size and weight of the receiver and the weight of the battery for driving it can be adjusted directly by the user. It can be seen that it was a heavy burden on the user because there was no freedom to select headphones.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In the present invention, the user uses a receiver for providing audio of a reproducing device or the like, which is used for wireless headphones, which has been a hindrance to the user, without any resistance and with a light burden. The task is to make it possible.

[0005]

[Means for Solving the Problems] While using the reproducing / recording apparatus,
A receiver for providing audio is built into the wireless remote controller that the user feels necessary at hand.

[0006]

[Operation] In the first place, the wireless remote control is intended for remote control of the playback / recording device, and ideally should always be in the user's hand during use. By incorporating a receiver for voice inside the wireless remote controller, the user only has to carry the remote controller when moving, it is possible to prevent duplication of batteries, and it is possible to improve the mobility of the user.
The present invention is a combination of a receiver that is needed at hand and a characteristic of a remote controller that is indispensable for remote control when transmitting voice wirelessly, so that the user does not have a wasteful object,
It is intended to be used as a user in remote areas without any loss of mobility and as a user.

A description will be given below with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. The figure is a schematic view showing a television remote controller as an example of use of the present invention. In addition to the TV remote controller, there is a wireless voice receiver inside the TV remote controller, which shares one power supply mechanism. There is a headphone terminal (reference numeral 1) on the side of the TV remote control to connect the sound from the receiver to headphones, etc. When you insert the headphone jack,
Audio can be provided to the user. This headphone terminal has a built-in mechanism to determine whether or not the headphone jack is set, and the determination information can be used to drive the receiver inside the remote controller to save power, or the determination information. It is also possible to automatically shut off the sound of the TV body by sending to the TV body.

A description will be given below with reference to FIG. The figure is a block diagram showing a user's command (operation) to the reproducing / recording apparatus and transmission of voice. When the user operation is performed at a short distance, it is directly performed by the transmission method shown by reference numeral 5, and the voice is directly acquired as shown by reference numeral 6 or is acquired by using the headphones by the code. Further, when the user is at a long distance, direct operation cannot be performed, so the operation by the wireless remote controller (reference numeral 7 and reference numeral 8) is used, and it is understood that the user has the remote controller. According to the present invention, when a headphone or the like is used, sound is provided from the wireless remote controller. Therefore, it is possible to use a headphone that uses paths such as reference numerals 9 and 10 by using the reference numeral 11. To be processed while the headphones are in use.

[0009]

[Example] Use for TV, video remote control, etc.

[0010]

By implementing the present invention, a wireless remote controller having a high terminal capability has been put into practical use, polarization of each function of the main body and the remote controller has progressed, and a direction of development conforming to a user-friendly remote controller Can be suggested. On the user side, the remote voice providing mechanism, which may have been an obstacle to maneuverability, can be turned around to become a mechanism that has the original meaning of a wireless voice transmission device that can assist maneuverability, making the user light and easy. Will be able to use.
