Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to a telephone number receiving and transmitting system, particularly when a telephone number is checked and then a telephone call is made. The present invention relates to a telephone number receiving and transmitting system that is easy to operate for users.

[Conventional technology'']

In the past, if you wanted to know a phone number, you either looked it up in the phone directory yourself or dialed ``rlG4'' and then asked the operator for the phone number you were looking up.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

By the way, as mentioned above, when you ask an operator to look up your phone number, (1) you cannot write down the number unless you have a memo, (2) you may mishear the number, and (3) the number. (4) If there are multiple numbers of the target party, the problems in (1) to (3) above are more likely to occur. Become
・There is a problem.

Furthermore, the same problem as above occurs when the telephone number of a third party or the other party is asked from the other party during the telephone call.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to solve the above-mentioned problems in conventional telephone number searches and to make it possible to receive and send telephone numbers with simpler operations. The purpose of this invention is to provide a telephone number receiving and calling system.

[Means for solving problems]

The above objects of the present invention include a push button signal receiving device, a push button signal transmitting device, a dial pulse transmitting device,
It has a display device with a touch sensor that enables touch input, is connected to a telephone line, and is capable of displaying a third party's telephone number sent by a push-button signal from a directory assistance operator's seat or a general push-button telephone. The push-button signal receiving device receives the signal and displays it on the display device, and the push-button signal transmitting device or dial pulse transmitting device displays a telephone number corresponding to the touch point by a touch operation on the display on the display device. This is achieved by a telephone number receiving and transmitting system that is characterized in that it performs a dialing operation by transmitting data to a telephone line.

[Effect]

In the present invention, a device with a special function is added to a conventional two-wire interface telephone, and this special function is used to receive and display a third party's telephone number sent by a push button signal from the other party. At the same time, the device performs a calling service according to instructions from the user of the device.
The system is characterized in that it organically combines various conventionally used means to construct a device having the above-mentioned special functions, and incorporates this into a telephone line to form a system.

〔Example〕

Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of the present invention. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes an additional device which is a main part of the present invention, and the details thereof will be described later.

Also, 2 is a push button (hereinafter referred to as rPBJ) or dial pulse (hereinafter referred to as rDPJ) telephone, 3 is a directory assistance operator's seat, 4 is a PB telephone, 5 is the same additional device as 1, and 6 is the same as 2. , and 7 indicates a telephone switching network.

FIG. 3 shows the internal configuration of the additional devices 1 and 5. In the figure, 11 is a PB signal receiving device that receives the PB double signal, 12 is a PB signal sending device that sends out the PB double signal,
13 is a DP signal sending device that sends out a DP double signal; 14 is a display device with a touch sensor that allows touch input; 15 is a memory that stores the received telephone number; 16
Reference numeral 17 indicates a line control device, and 17 indicates a control unit that controls each of the above-mentioned devices.

The operation of this embodiment configured as described above will be explained below by taking as an example a case where a telephone number is received from a directory assistance operator.

A user of telephone 2 with additional device 1 first selects "104
” to connect to the directory assistance operator seat 3.

Then, similar to the conventional method, the user uses a voice signal to inform the operator of the desired telephone number. The operator checks the desired telephone number, notifies the user by a voice signal, and then sends the telephone number as a PB signal to the line.

The additional device 1 receives the PB multiplied signal by the PB signal receiving device 1fll, stores it in the memory 15, and displays it on the display device 14 with a touch sensor.

If the user wants to make a call immediately.

The above display device with touch sensor! ! 14, the control section 17 detects this and the line control device 16 temporarily disconnects the call with the operator, and sends the PB signal sending device 1] 12 or the DP signal. The device 13 touches the ??
Sends the information on the 4th episode number to the telephone line.

Connect automatically.

FIG. 1 shows the processing flow of each section in the above operation.

According to the above embodiment, the telephone number sent as a PB double signal from the directory assistance operator's seat is received, displayed, and stored, and also sent as a PB double signal or DP signal by the user's touch. This has the effect of being possible only through manipulation.

In the above embodiment, an example was shown in which a telephone number notification is received from the directory assistance operator's seat, but the PB telephone 4
When receiving a telephone number from a caller who has a telephone number, the same operation can be performed and the same effect can be obtained.

Next, additional equipment! 1 from the caller with t5! A case in which an IJ number is received will be explained.

In the embodiment described above, the received telephone number is stored in the memory 15.
As mentioned above, the data can be stored by adding a backup battery to the data. Then, add some or all of these accumulated phone numbers to an additional device! It is also possible to send a knee to a user with 5. In this case, the display device with a touch sensor! Touch the phone number displayed on 14 and send the information of the touched phone number to the PB signal sending device! 12 to the telephone line.

Similarly, if a user who has an additional device sends the telephone number 1 held in the memory of the additional device, the additional device 1 can receive the telephone number through the PB signal receiving device 11. Therefore, the same operation as in the embodiment shown above is possible.

Note that by adding a device for driving an information storage medium such as an IC card or a floppy disk to the additional device 1, and storing the telephone number stored in the memory 15 in the information storage medium, the storage medium can be carried around. , it is also possible to perform the same operation as above using additional devices of different users.

Further, a function is added to the touch sensor-equipped display device 14 of the additional device 11 to display kana characters, alphanumeric characters, etc., and write a character string to the memory 15 by touching the displayed characters. By associating it with the telephone number stored in the memory 15, the user of the 5-additional device 1 can:
It is also possible to set the number to 1 so that the desired person can be searched for by name, etc., rather than by telephone number. In this case, the present invention □ can be utilized even more effectively.

[Effects of the Invention] As described above, according to the present invention, a device with special functions is added to a conventional two-wire interface telephone,
Using this special function, we received and displayed the telephone number of a third party sent a PR double signal from the other party, and also performed an outgoing call service based on instructions from the user of the device. The above-mentioned additional device has the remarkable effect of realizing a telephone number receiving and transmitting system that solves the problems of Since it can be used without the need to organize networks or terminals, it has the great effect of simply being practical;
By writing the name corresponding to the phone number, the present invention can be
Than.

It can be used more effectively.　　　　　′
