Abstract

PURPOSE:To attain sure notification by providing an interrupt generating pulse from a timer circuit to a main control signal via an AND circuit controlled by an FF so as to easily detect the emergency of a carrying person with a simple configuration. CONSTITUTION:A timer circuit 7 outputs an operation request pulse C at a setting time to set a FF 8 and an AND circuit 10 gets 'through' and an alarm by a buzzer 9 is raised. Then an interrupt generating pulse (e) from the circuit 7 is applied to a main control section 5, in which determined emergency information is automatically sent. Thus, the emergency of the carrying person is easily detected with simple configuration and sure notification is attained. Furthermore, in this case, the FF 8 is reset by operating an operation section 2, and as soon as the buzzer 9 is deenergized, the circuit 10 gets open.

Next, a portable telephone according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of the present invention. In the mobile phone having the auto dial function shown in FIG. 1, a transmitting / receiving unit 1, an operation unit 2, a display unit 3,
The voice input / output unit 4, the transmission / reception unit 1, the operation unit 2, the display unit 3, the main control unit 5 for controlling the voice input / output unit 4, and the presence of a preset operation input to the operation unit 2 are detected. Then, the operation unit input detection circuit 6 that outputs the operation unit input detection signal a, and the interrupt generation pulse signal b that generates the interrupt generation pulse signal b at each preset time, and includes the interrupt generation pulse signal b. Also, a timer circuit 7 that generates an operation request pulse signal c that rises early for a certain period of time, and a flip-flop circuit 8 that sets an operation request instruction signal d by the operation request pulse signal c and resets and outputs the operation unit input detection signal a And a buzzer 9 that generates an operation request sound by the operation request instruction signal d, and the logical sum of the interrupt generation pulse signal b and the operation request instruction signal d Configured to include an AND circuit 10 for outputting a signal only e to the main control unit 5.

As shown in FIG. 2, the timer circuit 7 generates an operation request pulse signal c at a set time.
As a result, the operation request instruction signal d, which is the output of the flip-flop circuit 8, is set, and the sound is generated by the buzzer 9,
An input instruction is given to the carrier. At this time, when the carrier performs the set input, the operation unit input detection circuit 6 detects this, and
The operation unit input detection signal a is output. The operation request instruction signal d previously set by the operation unit input detection signal a is reset, the buzzer 9 stops sounding, and at the same time, the interrupt generation pulse signal b output from the timer circuit 7 is invalidated by the AND circuit 10, and The dial interrupt signal e is not output.

On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 3, if the operation section input detection signal a is not generated within the time from the rise of the operation request pulse signal c to the rise of the interrupt generation pulse signal b, the flip-flop circuit 8 Is not reset, the interrupt generation pulse signal b becomes valid in the AND circuit 10, and the auto dial interrupt signal e is sent to the main control unit 5.
Is output, and the main control unit 5 starts transmitting information to a preset partner by the auto dial function. Therefore, when the user of the mobile phone of the present invention is in a state in which the input operation of the operation unit 2 cannot be performed, it is possible to contact a preset partner.

In the above embodiment, the operation request instructing means is constituted by the buzzer 9 which produces the operation request sound by the operation request instructing signal d, but the operation request instructing means makes the operation request by the operation request instructing signal. LED indicating by light
