Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To confirm a dial number by ear by constituting a system so as to permit the number corresponding to a dial button to be heard from a receiver by means of voice when the dial button is depressed at the time of executing dial call originating in a telephone set. SOLUTION: When the receiver 1 is picked-up and the dial button is depressed, the number information is transmitted to a dial transmitting circuit 6 and a voice uttering circuit 4. The dial transmitting circuit 6 receives number information and transmits a dial signal to a line. In the meantime, the voice issuing circuit 4 receives number information. After that, an instruction is given to a call change-over control part 9 and a call passage change-over switch 8 is operated so that connection is obtained with a reception part 2. After connection, the voice uttering circuit 4 transmits the number corresponding to number information from the dial button 5 by voice to the reception part 2. Then, the call passage change-over switch 8 is operated after the transmission of the dial number by voice is completed so that the reception part 2 changes- over a call passage from the voice issuing circuit 4 to a network line 7.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a telephone which makes a dial call by operating a dial button.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, when dialing a telephone, the receiver is raised and a dial button is pressed to transmit a dial signal. At this time, the dial signal is heard as a side tone from the receiver. In this case, even if the user mistakenly presses the dial button, he or she does not notice at that time, but notices that the other party makes a wrong call only after answering.

[0003]

As described above, in the conventional telephone, when the dial button is pressed, the dial signal is only heard from the handset as a side tone. I can't notice.

[0004] It is an object of the present invention to prevent a wrong telephone call by allowing a dial number to be confirmed when a dial button is pressed.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a telephone having a handset and a dial button, wherein the dial button is pressed when the dial button is pressed. And a means for transmitting the audio signal to the receiver. Thus, the dial number can be confirmed by the voice from the receiver.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Embodiments of the present invention will be specifically described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a telephone according to the present invention. Reference numeral 1 denotes a receiver, which comprises a receiver 2 and a transmitter 3. Reference numeral 10 denotes a switching circuit, which mainly includes a communication path switching switch (SW) 8 and a communication path switching control unit 9 for controlling the switch. Reference numeral 4 denotes a voice utterance circuit, 5 denotes a dial button, 6 denotes a dial transmission circuit, and 7 denotes a network circuit. FIG. 2 is an external view of the telephone according to the present invention. Figure 1 below
The operation of the present invention will be described below.

When the receiver 1 is lifted and the number of the dial button 5 is depressed, the number information is transmitted to the dial transmitting circuit 6 and the voice utterance circuit 4. The dial sending circuit 6 receives the number information and sends a dial signal to the line. On the other hand, after receiving the number information, the voice utterance circuit 4 issues an instruction to the communication path switching control section 9 and operates the communication path switching switch 8 to connect to the reception section 2. After the connection, the voice utterance circuit 4 transmits a number corresponding to the number information from the dial button 5 to the receiver 2 by voice. After the transmission of the dial number by voice is completed, by operating the call path switch 8,
The receiver 2 switches the communication path from the voice utterance circuit 4 to the network circuit 7.

[0009]

According to the present invention, when dialing with a telephone, when the dial button is pressed, the number corresponding to the dial button is heard by voice from the receiver, so that the dial number can be confirmed by ear. . Thereby, even if the dial button is mistakenly pressed, the user can notice at the time when the mistake is made, so that a wrong telephone call can be prevented.
