Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce the time for redialing and troublesomeness by applying automatic redialing if no reply comes from a called party after a preset time elapses and sending the next incoming subscriber number automatically. CONSTITUTION:A telephone set TEL-A1 is provided with a dial section 11 inputting a specific dial number corresponding to an incoming subscriber number, a storage section MEM 12 storing plural incoming subscriber numbers in the order, an incoming subscriber number sending section SND 13 and a time count section TIM 14. The SND 13 applies time measuring start to the TIM 14 after the sending of the subscriber number of the TEL-B2 to the exchange 4 and the TIM 14 applies measurement for a preset prescribed time. When no response comes from the exchange 4 after a prescribed time about the TEL-B2, the MEM 12 sends the subscriber number of the TEL-C3 to the SND 13 as the next subscriber number. Thus, the time for redialing is reduced.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a telephone set, and more particularly to a telephone set having an automatic re-calling function that can send out called subscriber numbers stored in an ordered manner in accordance with that order.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, in a telephone set capable of storing this type of incoming subscriber number, the originating subscriber stores the incoming subscriber number in advance in the telephone in association with a specific speed dial number using a known method. When dialing a stored called subscriber number, the called subscriber number is automatically sent by dialing a corresponding specific speed dial number.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

The above-mentioned conventional telephones capable of remembering the called subscriber are capable of remembering the called subscriber when the called subscriber is busy or does not answer, the calling subscriber can restore the telephone once when making a re-call, and use the same identification number to make the call again. or if the called subscriber has more than one telephone set and has multiple called subscriber numbers, the calling subscriber may have to dial the same called subscriber number again. There is a drawback in that, when making the call again, the user must search for and dial a specific speed-dial number that corresponds to another pre-stored subscriber number.

In any of the above cases, the originating subscriber recovers the telephone and
The disadvantage is that the specific speed dial number must be remembered because the specific speed dial number must be manually dialed again when making a second call.

[Means for solving problems]

A telephone set of the present invention stores a called subscriber number, and includes a storage means for storing a plurality of said called subscriber numbers possessed by each called subscriber in a preset order, and said stored called called subscriber number. and a measuring means for measuring a predetermined period of time set as the incoming subscriber number transmission link, and the incoming subscriber number transmitted when there is no response from the other party after the elapse of the predetermined time. The next called subscriber number in the order is automatically read out from the storage means and automatically sent out by the sending means for re-calling.

〔Example〕

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

FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing an example of a telephone switching system to which an embodiment of the present invention is applied.

In FIG. 1, the telephone switching system of this application example includes a telephone A (hereinafter referred to as TEL--A) 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention, and a normal telephone B (hereinafter referred to as TEL-B). ) 2, a normal telephone C (hereinafter referred to as TEL-C) 3, and an exchange 4.

The station-A1 includes a dial section (hereinafter referred to as DIAL) 11 for inputting a specific dial number corresponding to the incoming subscriber number;
A storage unit that stores multiple incoming subscriber numbers in order of use (
(hereinafter referred to as MEM) 12, a sending unit (hereinafter referred to as SND) 13 that sends out the called subscriber number, and a time measuring unit that measures a preset fixed time for automatic re-calling after sending out the called subscriber number. (hereinafter referred to as TIM) 14.

Next, the operation of this application example will be explained.

First, in order to store the called subscriber number in position -Al, T'
The EL-Al subscriber presses the DIAL II registration switch (not shown). After that, 'T' E L -82
The subscriber number and the corresponding specific dial number are dialed using DIAL1, 1, for example, °゛*110#'''.

The MEM12 prepares to store the called subscriber number by pressing the registration switch, and here, for example, the first digit following the dial signal is designated as the sending order of the called subscriber number, and the following two digits are The number is recognized and stored as a specific dialed number corresponding to the called subscriber number. The subscriber at Station-A1 registers the subscriber number at Station-82 and its specific dial number in MEM12, and then restores the registration switch.

Similarly, the subscriber at location Al dials a specific dial number corresponding to the subscriber number at location C3, for example, as *210#, thereby storing it in MEM12 as described above.

Next, when making a call, the subscriber dials the specific dial number "*10#" at station-A1.

This “*10#” dial signal is DIALII
.

It is sent to MEMl2 via. Based on the dial number "*10#", MEMl2 selects, according to the ordering, among the subscriber numbers corresponding to the stored specific dial number,
The subscriber number of the latest device B2 is read out and sent to the 5ND13.

After receiving the subscriber number TE', L-82 from MEM12, 5ND13 sends the subscriber number B2 to the exchange 4 in a known manner. 5ND13 is switch 4
After sending the subscriber number of B2, time measurement is started for the TIM 14. The TIM 14 measures a preset period of time when activated, and if there is no response from the exchange 4 to set-B2 after this period of time has elapsed, the 5ND 13 and M
Notify EMl 2 that a certain amount of time has passed.

By knowing that a certain amount of time has passed, 5ND13
A restoration signal is sent to the exchange 4 using a known method, and then the call is placed again. By knowing that a certain period of time has elapsed, MEM12 dials a specific dial number "'*lO
The subscriber number of C3 is sent to the 5ND 13 as the next subscriber number corresponding to #'''.The subsequent operations are as described above.

Furthermore, if there is no response from the other party, the subscriber number to be sent for re-calling after a certain period of time will be set according to the order of memory in the MEM 12: - Subscriber number of B2 - Subscriber number of C3 - Place The subscriber number -82 is sent out in a circular manner.

In addition, if the called subscriber answers before a certain period of time has elapsed, the TIM1
The measurement for a certain period of time in step 4 is canceled.

It is also possible to always re-call to the same subscriber number by setting the first digit to 0, for example "*010#", at the time of registration as a specific dial number corresponding to the called subscriber number.

Furthermore, the caller may input the called subscriber number directly from DIALII without inputting the DIAL II *11 indicating a specific dial number when dialing, and send the called subscriber number from SND 13 without using MEM12 and TIM14. can.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, the present invention stores a plurality of called subscriber numbers in order, sends the called subscriber numbers, and automatically re-calls if there is no response from the called subscriber after a preset certain period of time has elapsed. By having a sending means that automatically sends the next called subscriber's number, the calling subscriber avoids the hassle of having to dial again when the called subscriber is busy or does not answer. This reduces the hassle of having to accurately remember the specific speed dial number that corresponds to the incoming subscriber's number, which was done in the past, and reduces the time it takes to re-call. .
