Abstract

PURPOSE:To provide a telephone set with the sense and easy to use by forming the telephone set so that at least part of the telephone set is moved upon the receipt of a call signal and housing a receiver in the telephone set main body in the usual state thereby providing it with the sense of integration in terms of design. CONSTITUTION:A telephone set 2 is housed usually in the inside of a telephone set main body 1. Furthermore, upon the receipt of a call signal, a receiver 2 is lifted upward. That is, in the normal state, the smart telephone set in which the receiver 2 and the telephone set main body 1 are integrated is expressed, and when a phone call is received, the reception state is informed to a person in a gentle way through its 'movement' so as to move the receiver to a position easily held. Furthermore, when a switch is depressed, the receiver 2 is lifted up to set an on-hook dialing state automatically. Since the telephone set 2 is housed usually in the telephone set main body 1 and the operation is not easy, the receiver is prevented from being left off.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

FIELD OF THE INVENTION This invention relates to telephones.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art FIGS. 2A and 2B are a front view and a side view of a conventional telephone, wherein 1 is a telephone body and 2 is a receiver. In the prior art, as described in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open No. 3-2707, a light emitting member is provided on the antenna barrel to receive a call signal to make it light up. A method has been proposed in which a connection cord is pulled out and an incoming indicator light is attached to the end of the cord. However, there was no idea of adding "motion" to the phone.

[0003]

In the prior art, the means for notifying that a call came is a combination of "sound" and recent "light" and is limited to the human "ears" and "eyes". It was a thing. Further, as shown in FIG. 2, the handset 2 is raised in a cross section so that it can be picked up by hand at all times, and therefore, there are problems in terms of design, "harmony with the telephone body" and "smartness".

Therefore, the object of the present invention is to solve such a problem. The object of the present invention is to perform "operation" on a telephone as a means of handing a handset from person to person as means for notifying that a call has arrived. By giving it, it is possible to make the phone have "human friendliness" and "sensitivity", and it is possible to store the handset in the phone body under normal conditions, so it is harmonious in design. It is about realizing a smart phone.

The above-mentioned "operation" is not limited to the handset part, and can be applied to all parts of the telephone such as the cassette tape, the display part (liquid crystal panel etc.), the operation button part, the antenna, etc.
Overall, it is possible to realize a great improvement in the relationship between the telephone and humans.

[0006]

The above object is achieved by having a movable part, at least a part of which moves when receiving a ringing signal.

[0007]

1 (a) and 1 (b) are side views of a telephone showing an embodiment of the present invention.
It is housed in the telephone body 1 as described above. After receiving the call signal, the handset 2 is lifted up as shown in (b). In other words, in normal times, a smart phone in which the handset 2 and the phone body 1 are integrated is realized, and when receiving a phone call, it gently informs the person by "action" and moves the phone to a position where it is easy to hold. . Of course, a method in which the above-mentioned "sound" and "light" are successfully combined can be considered.

FIG. 3 is a side view of a telephone showing another embodiment of the present invention, in which the handset 2 is moved to the upper front side. 4 and 5 are also front views of a telephone according to another embodiment of the present invention, in which FIG. 4 moves the handset to the left side.
Shows an example of rotating.

Next, FIGS. 6 (a) and 6 (b) are side views of a telephone (vertical type) showing another embodiment of the present invention, in which the handset is moved upward to the front side.

In the above examples, the case where the handset 2 operates has been described, but examples of "operation" of other parts are shown below.

FIG. 7 is a side view of a telephone showing an embodiment of the present invention, showing an example in which the antenna 3 rises up when receiving a call signal. Recently, cordless telephones have been spreading rapidly, but the antenna is erected to ensure its performance, but it is dangerous for children's eyes because it is a solid rod. Therefore, it is an effective method to get up and rotate only when necessary, and to add a means to confirm the position of the cordless slave unit and change the direction to the optimum position. Of course, in normal times, the antenna can be stored in the phone body.

Next, FIG. 8 is a front view showing another embodiment of the present invention. The telephone body 1 is provided with a slide table 4, a cassette tape 5, operation buttons 6 and the like. If the slide table 4 automatically slides when a call signal is received, various cassette operations such as call recording can be quickly handled.

FIG. 9 is a front view of a telephone showing an embodiment of the present invention, showing that when the switch 7 is pushed, the handset is lifted and the on-hook dial state is automatically set. This means that the handset 2 is normally housed in the telephone body 1 as shown in FIG. 1 (a), so it is difficult to lift the handset when making a call. At the same time, it will be on-hook dialing state (you can dial without picking up the handset). The switch 7 may be used as it is as a conventional call key (on-hook dial state). Similarly, the switch 7 can be returned to the original position by pressing the switch 7 again.

Finally, FIG. 10 shows a block diagram of a telephone showing an embodiment of the present invention. 8 is an NCU circuit for detecting a calling signal, 9 is a CPU, 10 is a speaker amplifier, 11
Is a speaker, and a conventional telephone generates a ringing tone by this route. In the present invention, in parallel, the processing signal from the CPU 9 is transmitted to the motor 13 via the motor driver 12. As a result, the motor 13 is rotated at the same time when the ringing tone is generated (of course, it may be shifted),
By operating the operating mechanism 14, it is possible to give the telephone a "movement" such as lifting the handset described above. This "motion" may be lifted little by little in response to the ringing tone, or may be instantly lifted by detecting the number of times or time. On the contrary, if no one answers the telephone due to absence or the like after the operating mechanism 14 operates to lift the handset, the CPU counts the ringing signal for a certain number of times or for a certain period of time, and then gives the motor 13 a reverse rotation. If you do
You can put the handset back up. This method is also effective for the cassette tape portion, the display portion, the operation button portion, the antenna portion, and the like, as the "operating" portion.

[0015]

As described above, according to the present invention, by having a movable part, at least a part of which moves when a call signal is received, by adding a motion such as moving the receiver and the front side upward, a human It is possible to give a telephone a "gentleness" and "sensitivity" like handing a handset to a person. As a side effect, it is possible to store a handset in the main body of the telephone during normal operation to realize a smart telephone with a unified design.

Further, there is no problem that the handset is accidentally touched and the handset is disconnected during normal operation.

The above-mentioned "operation" is not limited to the handset part, but can correspond to all parts of the telephone, such as the cassette tape portion, the display portion, the operation button portion, the antenna portion, etc., and the relationship between the telephone and the human being in a new form. Improvement can be realized.
