Abstract

PURPOSE:To perceive a voice message and an alarm tone selectively by generating a voice message at the set time when a voice output unit is mounted to a memo input unit while an alarm tone is generated from the memo input unit when it is separated therefrom. CONSTITUTION:When a voice output unit 3 is mounted to a memo input unit 1 and then, a switch 6 is turned ON, a gate circuit 13 is closed and a gate circuit 14 opened. Data of a memory circuit 7 is read out every minute and the set time data is compared with the current time by a comparator circuit 11 and a message selection data is fed to a decoder 17. When the set time data coinciding with the current time is found, a coincidence signal is generated from the circuit 11 and then, fed to the decoder 17 through the circuit 14. A corresponding message data is read out from a message data memory circuit 16. A voice synthesization is performed on the data with a voice synthesization circuit 18 to generate a voice message from a speaker 5.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Technical Field] The present invention relates to an electronic memo device that generates a voice message at a set time.

[Prior art and its problems]

An electronic memo pad that generates a message at a set time,
Since multiple messages must be stored, it is difficult to pack it into a compact K that can be carried around. Even if you are able to carry around with you, it can still be awkward if you hear ``Metsushichi'' on the train or in a meeting, for example.

〔the purpose〕

According to the present invention, the memo input device and the audio output device can be separated, and when the two are separated, the memo input device generates an alarm sound at the set time, and when both are attached, the memo input device generates an alarm sound at the set time. To provide a lightning memo device that emits messages.

〔Example〕

In FIG. 1, 1 is a memo input device, and a number key Ko-
, message selection keys Ka, ~Kh and display section 2
Equipped with: It is an audio output device that can be attached to and detached from the memo input device 1 through the 3-pin connector 4, and can be connected to the speaker 5 and ON.
It is equipped with a 10 FF switch 6 and records the contents of eight types of messages A to H. For example, when the key α of the memo input device 1 is pressed, message A is selected, and a message ``The meeting will begin'' is generated at the set time.

Circuit configuration of memo input device 1 and voice output device 30? What is shown is FIG. 2, in which the configuration of the memo input device 1 will be explained first. A storage circuit consisting of 7 RAM, sets time data for keys Ko~ and α for keys.
-Kh, message selection keys are stored. The 8-digit memory control section controls reading and writing of data in the memory circuit 7. 96 clock circuit, 1
0 is a display control section that controls the display of the display section 2. ,1
A comparison circuit that compares the current time and set time data;
12 is an alarm device, 13 and 14 are gate circuits, and 15 is an inverter.

Next, the configuration of the audio output device 6 will be explained.

A message data storage circuit consisting of 16 ROMs, 8
Data such as voice messages such as ``There is a meeting'', ``Everyone is coming 1. ``It's time for dinner'', etc. are stored. A decoder for 17 address instructions converts message selection data into address output. 1
8 is a speech synthesis circuit and a 19-digit amplifier.

Next, the operation will be explained. First, the time and parisage setting operations will be explained. Attach the voice output device 3 to the memo input device 1, input the time data Thf-Ko-, and select the set time data and message selection using α to Kh for all messages at that time. The data is stored in the storage unit i11!7 via the storage control unit 8.

This set number is determined by the storage capacity of the storage circuit 7.

In this way, data is set in the memory circuit 7. If this device is used entirely on a desk, etc., the memo input device 1 and the voice output device 3
is attached, and the switch 6f is turned on, that is, the switch 61r in FIG. 2 is closed. This closes the gate circuit 13 and opens the gate circuit 14.

The data in the memory circuit 7 is read out every minute, and the set time data is compared with the current time in the comparison circuit 11, and the message selection key is supplied to the decoder 17. , if there is set time data that matches the plastic time, a matching signal is generated from the comparing circuit 11 and is supplied to the decoder 17 via the gate circuit 14. As a result, the decoder 17 generates an address designation output based on the message selection data, and the corresponding message data is retrieved from the message data storage circuit 16.

Based on this data, voice synthesis is performed in the voice synthesis circuit 18, and a voice message is generated from the speaker 5.In this way, when the voice output device 3 is attached to the memo input device 1, When a voice message is generated and you go out, etc., disconnect the voice output device 3 and carry only the memo input device 1 with you. By separating the two, gate circuit 13 is opened and gate circuit 14 is closed. Therefore, when a matching signal is generated from the comparison circuit 11, it is supplied to the alarm device 12 via the gate circuit 13, and an alarm sound is generated. In other words, an alarm sound is generated at each set time to notify the user of the warning.

Therefore, it is possible to eliminate the inconvenience of voice disturbances occurring when the user is out or in a meeting.

By replacing the voice output device, it is possible to generate different messages using a common memo input device.
lll: For example, as shown in Figure 5, a memorandum of messages for home use such as waking up, going to bed, television, etc. is memorized at home, and the one in Figure 1 is used at work, and a memo input device is used. It is convenient to carry it with you so that you can use it at work and at home.

〔effect〕

According to the present invention, the memo input device and the voice output device can be separated, and when both are fully loaded, a voice message is generated at a set time (C voice message), and when they are disconnected, an alarm sound is generated from the memo input device at the set time. Now, when you use it at work or at home, you can know your schedule by voice message.When you are out or in a meeting, you can know your schedule by an alarm sound instead of voice message. You will no longer be inconvenienced.

'If you replace all the audio output devices in the market, you can use many types of audio media.
It is convenient because the memo can be generated using a common memo manual and can be used for home use and office use, for example.
