JPS625755A - Emergency contact telephone set for aged and physically handicapped person - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To quickly perform the countermeasure in emergency time by a message receiver by dialing automatically depressing a push button and vocalizing an outgoing party number and a message registered in advance with a voice synthesis device. CONSTITUTION:By locating a remote box 4 in a handy place and only pushing a button in the emergency time, a sequence controller 3, with controlling a telephone line, calls a registered destination telephone set 1(8) and when absent, calls a registered destination telephone set 2(9) and N(10) one after another, and repeats this sequence. With raising the handset of the registered destination telephone set, the telephone line is connected and the voice synthesis device is operated and a register number and the message are read out from a sound data storing device and vocalized. At such a time, and at the same time, so that switching is performed so as to increase the gain/sensitivity of the handset of said telephone set by several times, a receiving side decides a status by the peripheral sound at a transmission side and an appropriate indication can be performed through a transmitter.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention enables elderly people living alone and disabled people to contact their family members, etc. in an emergency by a simple operation such as pressing a button. This invention relates to a telephone device that allows quick measures to be taken.

[Conventional technology]

In the event of an emergency, methods have been used in which the person himself/herself announces the situation out loud to those around him or by making a phone call to inform them of his/her situation.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

Conventionally, communication using a regular telephone has had problems such as the operation being complicated for people with physical strength and weakness, making it difficult to make contact in an emergency. In addition, even if contact was made, the situation could not be properly explained because the speaker's vocal function had deteriorated, and in the case of a person who did not have appropriate contact information at rH. ',! There was an inconvenient period;

[Purpose of the invention]

The present invention was made in order to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, and by placing a remote box separate from the telephone main body in a nearby place, a person with weakened physical strength can contact the telephone in an emergency by simply pressing a button. By increasing the sensitivity of the voice synthesizer and microphone, the receiver can make appropriate judgments about the situation due to a decline in his or her vocal ability, and by increasing the amplification of the speaker, the contact person can For those who need words of encouragement, or who do not have proper contact information, the service station can be used as a contact point, and the caller ID issued by a speech synthesizer before the message can be used to identify the address and name. The purpose of this invention is to provide an emergency contact telephone for the elderly and handicapped persons, which allows a third party to take appropriate emergency measures.

[Embodiments of the Invention] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described based on the drawings. Fig. 1 shows an overall configuration diagram. The present invention relates to a telephone that uses a regular public telephone line with the following functions added to it, and a technique for using the telephone. That is, the functions are: 1) Remote box Q connected by wire/wireless 2) Pre-setting of registered telephone number and automatic dialing.

3) Speech of the caller's number and the selected message by the speech synthesizer.

4) Automatic gain/sensitivity switching of loudspeaker/sound collection device.

The technologies used are: 1) Registrants can determine where the call is coming from based on the caller's number or message.

2) Since the caller number is spoken, central management is possible at the service station.

FIG. 2 shows a block diagram of the present invention, FIG. 4 shows a flowchart of the control program, and FIG. 3 shows a flowchart of the remote box.

The device controls the telephone line and sequentially calls the registered telephone 1 (8), and if it is not present, calls the registered telephone 2 (9) and N (10).
is called one after another, and this is repeated again.

When the handset of the registered telephone is picked up, the telephone line is connected, the voice synthesizer (26) operates, and the registered number and message are read out from the voice data storage (25) and uttered. The receiver can understand where the call is coming from based on the message or registration number without the sender saying anything. At this time, the gain/sensitivity of the transmitter/receiver of this telephone is switched several times over, so the receiver can judge the situation based on the surrounding sounds of the transmitter and give appropriate instructions through the transmitter. Ru.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, by adopting the unique functions and usage technology of the telephone system of the present invention, elderly people who are physically and mentally weak can contact each other with simple operations in an emergency, and can make appropriate judgments about the environment. , it was possible to achieve unique effects such as being able to take emergency measures quickly.

Claims (1)

[Claims] A main unit and a remote controller connected to the main unit for signal transmission.
It includes a box and a push button etc. provided on the remote box, and when the push button is pressed to generate a signal, the main unit receives this and automatically dials multiple pre-registered phone numbers. If the other party is not at home, the phone calls the next number, repeats this process, and when the receiver of the registered phone number is picked up, the device will voice the pre-registered caller ID and message. The synthesizer emits a voice, and at the same time increases the gain and sensitivity of the speaker and microphone of the receiver and transmitter of the main unit to make it easier for the receiver to understand the caller's surroundings, even if the caller does not actually make a sound. , it is possible to know from where the call is coming from based on the caller ID or message, it is possible to centrally manage the call from one station, it is possible to understand the surrounding situation of the registered destination, and it is possible to provide appropriate emergency information such as calling the caller with appropriate instructions.
