Abstract

PURPOSE:To rationalize information transmitting job, by informing it to a caller automatically when a called party is absent or busy on another phone and making the caller possible for communication, in a private branch exchange system using a computer. CONSTITUTION:A caller inputs an exclusive code of a called party from a telephone set nearby, e.g., An, to activate a master set 4 with an instruction from a computer 2 and to call a required slave set, e.g., B1. Then, the called party operates an exchange 1 via a telephone set nearby, e.g., A1 to communicate with the An. If the called party is absent due to a meeting, the absence is inputted to the computer 2 from an absence recorder 5 in advance. The computer 2 transmits an absence signal to the An via the exchange 1 to inform the absence to the caller. Similarly, if the called party is occupied on another phone, the computer 2 informs it to the caller via the exchange 1.

Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention relates to a private telephone system.

The majority of communication within the premises is by telephone.

However, in the case of conventional land-line telephones, it often occurred that the person on the other end was absent and could not be contacted, or that a third Akane was required to act as an intermediary, which hindered the smooth operation of business.

This invention is as follows:
Eliminate the need for intermediaries, and always communicate directly between the sender and receiver.
If possible, or if the receiver is absent, the caller is immediately notified of this fact, thereby streamlining and shortening the telephone contact work.

In other words, this local telephone system consists of a computer, an exchange, an entry/exit recording device that manually records the presence or absence of each person, a non-N payout machine (main unit) for each person's call, and a radio for each person's call/receiver A5. Receiver (handset), device to notify the caller that the caller is absent or busy, and a keyboard for manually inputting the affiliation, name, etc. of the other party, which is also applicable to manual switching operations such as external telephone lines. The system is comprised of a voice input device, a message output device that communicates with the switchboard that the person is absent or is on a call, and will be explained in detail below using the embodiments shown in the drawings.

In the drawings, A1. A2.・・・・・・An is a multiple telephone set in the premises, and is connected to a computer (2
)l\, and is also connected to the cash exchange (3) for external telephone calls.

(4J is a wireless transmitter (hereinafter referred to as the base unit),
- Portable radio receiving device (hereinafter referred to as slave device) 13+, B2.・・・
Send a call signal to... (5) is a computer (2)
(6) is a terminal to record the presence and absence of each person manually, and (6) is a computer (2). Or name the fame human powered equipment respectively. In addition, (7) is a message output device that, when the receiver is absent or busy, notifies the switchboard (31) of this fact and contacts the outside line caller, which is of course activated by commands from the console computer (2). (3) is a switchboard, and C is a 4-speaker for outside lines.

Next, explain the action. Each person is assigned a dedicated code and uses handset B, which is a dedicated wireless receiver.

In other words, the caller inputs the special code of the person he/she wishes to contact from a nearby telephone, for example, an The machine (4) is activated and calls a handset with a dust 1 code, for example, B1.As a result, the other party carrying the Dango machine receives the call signal, and calls a nearby telephone, for example, A1. (1) is activated for the first time, and the caller is connected to the telephone An of the caller, and a call can be made.

If the other party is away due to a meeting, etc., the other party (lull)
9. (1) The entry/exit recording device (5) records the entry/exit record device (5) to the computer (2) in the absence of the user's power.
The telephone number 14 is sent to the caller's telephone An to inform the caller that the other party is absent. Similar pot,
If the person on the other end of the first episode is busy on another phone, even if there is a problem,
The computer (1) detects the signal input/output from the exchange (1) and informs the caller (1) that the person on the other end of the line (1) is currently on the phone.

Of course, if the person on the other end of the call is not present or in a 4-to-5 situation, the computer (2) will send a call signal to the corresponding handset via the above-mentioned machine (4). At the same time, the receiver on the caller's side issues a message saying "I'm going to call you" and tell the caller that the caller is currently on a call.

Next, we will explain the call terminal via the outside line switching board (3).In other words, from the switching board (3) 1 to the computer (2) (keyboard or voice input terminal (6) connected to this
) to manually input the affiliation, name, etc. of the person on the other end of the call, and the Konopi computer (2) uses an entry/exit recording device (
Based on the f number in 5), it is determined whether the person is present or absent, and whether or not the person is on the phone via Bunkyatsuki α.

As a result, if the other party is absent or busy, this is communicated to the switchboard (3) via the message output device (7), and the switchboard (3) sends a message to the switchboard (3) via the outside line equipment WC'. Concatenate whether the external caller is absent or busy. If the person on the other end of the call is neither absent nor in the middle of a call, the optical signal will be output via the base unit (4) to the corresponding code slave unit BX's number 46, and this call signal will be sent to the switchboard at the same time. (3) is also sent to inform you that you are currently on a call.If the other party enters a nearby telephone (this code is entered), the telephone will be connected to an exchange (IJ). It connects to the intermediary switchboard (3), and connects to the outside line telephone C (if connected to this, it connects to the caller's telephone outside the premises and allows a call to be made.

In addition, the telephones Ai, A2. ...An is the same code regardless of whether it is the sender or the receiver, and it is unclear whether it is a call from Pano J, that is, a call from the transmitter 4, or a response from the receiver at the other end, and therefore, the code is not sent. A push button is provided to distinguish between the speaker side and the receiver side, and a push button for calling the switchboard (3) is provided.

As described above, the present invention uses a computer-based private telephone system to automatically notify the caller when the caller is absent or is busy on another phone. If the other party is not present or in traffic mode, a call signal is issued to the corresponding handset, and the called party inputs his/her own code from a nearby telephone, and as a result, the call is connected and the call is made. The contractor and the contractor were able to make calls in a specified state at all times without causing trouble to third parties such as intermediaries, etc., and these functions were also used excessively for calls made through switchboards such as external telephones. Compared to conventional private telephone systems, call time and waiting time are both shortened, and information transmission operations can be streamlined in a timely manner. An additional effect of this system is the removal of telephone bells from the office, and even a small amount of noise reduction can contribute to the reduction of office noise.
