Abstract

PURPOSE:To reproduce the record of a desired part only by recording a voice of a caller of a memory circuit corresponding to a selection signal from the caller. CONSTITUTION:After a voice signal for response is sent, a predetermined selection is sent from the caller side. Then a control circuit 7 stores a voice data to a number of a predetermined MEM (memory circuit) 5 corresponding to the selection signal. In reproducing the voice data stored in the MEM 5, a number corresponding to the number of the memory address desired to be reproduced from a PB (dial button) 11. Then the control circuit 7 controls the signal conversion circuit 4 and the MEM 5 to read a voice data desired to be reproduced in the designated address from the MEM 5 to inform the voice from the speaker 12.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a telephone with an answering machine function, and particularly to a memory circuit that has a receiving circuit for detecting a selection signal and corresponds to the output of the receiving circuit (corresponds to the selection signal). This invention relates to a telephone with an answering machine function that inputs and outputs voice data to and from an address.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, this type of telephone with an answering function is configured to record the voice of a caller in response to an incoming call while the user is away in the order of memory addresses or in the order of pre-programmed addresses.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

When the above-mentioned conventional telephone with an answering machine function is shared by multiple called parties, all recorded voice data must be played back in order to determine which one is for oneself. The disadvantage is that it does not. In addition, for telephones with an answering machine function that have a playback function by remote control via a telephone line (hereinafter referred to as remote control playback), all audio data must be played back for the same reason when playing the remote control. The drawback is that the fees are more burdensome than necessary.

[Means for solving problems]

A telephone with an answering function according to the present invention includes: a signal conversion circuit having a function of converting a calling circuit voice signal into voice data and a function of converting the voice data into the voice signal; and a memory circuit that records the voice data. a switching circuit that connects the telephone line to either the telephone call circuit or the signal conversion circuit; and a switching circuit that drives the switching circuit based on the output of the incoming call detection circuit and controls the signal conversion circuit and the memory circuit. 1. A telephone with an answering function, comprising: a control circuit for mutually converting the voice signal and the voice data; The circuit controls writing and reading of the audio data at an address of the memory circuit corresponding to the output signal in the memory circuit based on the output signal from the receiving circuit.

〔Example〕

Next, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing one embodiment of the present invention.

In the figure, in this embodiment, one end is connected to a transmitter/receiver (hereinafter referred to as TR) 2, and the other end is connected to a telephone line via a switching circuit (hereinafter referred to as SW) 6 having two switches s0 and S2. A telephone communication circuit (hereinafter referred to as SP) 1, an incoming call detection circuit (hereinafter referred to as DET) 3 that connects to the telephone line and detects an incoming signal, and a reception circuit that receives and detects a selection signal from the telephone line via SW6. A circuit (hereinafter referred to as REC) 8 and S
A memory circuit (hereinafter referred to as MEM) that converts the audio signal from the telephone line into audio data via W6, and converts the audio data into an audio signal and sends it to the signal conversion circuit via SW6 to the telephone line. 5 and DET3. It has a control circuit (hereinafter referred to as CTL) 7 that controls the CNV4゜MEM5.8W6 etc. by signals from the REC8 etc., and a dial button (hereinafter referred to as FB) 11 used for inputting dial and address designation of the MEM5. and a play button 12 and a record button 13 used for playing and recording audio data of MEMs.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be explained.

DET detects an incoming signal input via the telephone line
3 sends an incoming call detection signal to CTL 7.

Upon receiving this detection signal, CTL 7 controls Sl of 8W6 and switches the telephone line to connect to CNV 4 as shown by the solid line in FIG. Next, the CTL 7 controls the MEM 5, reads out the response audio data stored at a predetermined address in the MEM 6, and sends the response audio signal to the telephone line via the CNV 4 (response). mode)
.

During or after this response voice signal is sent to the telephone line,
A predetermined selection signal from the telephone line is REC8.
When the CTL 7 receives the selection signal from the REC 8, the CTL 7 controls the CNV 4 and the MEM 8 using the output signal generated by detecting the selection signal from the REC 8, and switches to the recording mode. Upon switching to this recording mode, the caller's voice signal from the telephone line is transmitted via the MEM5 predetermined in response to the selection signal.
The number is stored as voice data.

Next, when reproducing the audio data stored in the MEM5, after pressing the playback button 12, 82 of the SW6 is connected as shown by the dotted line under the control of the CTL7.
When you input the number corresponding to the memory address number of the audio data for the called party that you want to reproduce from the Bll, the REC8 receives that input signal, and the output signal from the REC8 causes the C
TL 7hCNV 4 and MEMsf control L, MEM5
The audio data to be reproduced at the address specified by J- et al. is read out, converted to an audio signal by CNV4, and sent to TR via SPl.
The audio signal can be heard from the speaker 12 or the speaker 12.

In addition, if you want to play back and listen to the audio data stored in the MEM 5 by remote control from a telephone line, after inputting a predetermined password from the telephone line, you can enter the playback code and the address of the MEM 5 where the audio data you want to play is stored. The code signal corresponding to
By inputting from the dial, the designated voice signal is transmitted to the calling party's handset by controlling the CTL 7 by the handheld device, which is almost the same as described above.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, the present invention provides a voice recording method in which a receiving circuit is provided to detect a selection signal from a caller, and the caller's voice is recorded at an address of a memory circuit corresponding to the selection signal. If the caller sends out a friend selection signal, an arrangement is made in advance between the calling party and the called party, and a voice message is recorded at the memory circuit address corresponding to the intended called party. Therefore, the called party can reproduce and listen to the message simply by specifying the address of the memory circuit corresponding to the selection signal.
