JPS63300656A - Telephone set - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To inform time information to a call opposite party even at a dark place at night or during communication or on a telephone set to which no display device can be attached by applying voice synthesis to the time data and outputting it from a loudspeaker. CONSTITUTION:In depressing a switch 7, a control section 5 receives time information from a clock section 6 and transfers the time data to a voice synthesis section 4. The synthesis section 4 applies voice synthesis to the transferred time data and outputs the time information from a speaker 3 through an amplifier 2. In this case, in throwing the loudspeaker switch 11 to the position of break side, that is, a make contact connecting to the amplifier 2 and the voice synthesis section 4 while parting from connection of the talking circuit 12, since the synthesized voice is also sent to the trunk line, the time information is sent to the opposite party during communication. Thus, the time is informed to the opposite party even with a telephone set to which no display device is attached or at dark place at night, or further during communication.

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 capable of outputting speech synthesis time information.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, this type of clock-equipped telephone uses LC to store clock time information.
It was visually displayed as text information using a display such as D.

[The problem that the invention attempts to solve]

The above-mentioned conventional clock phones display time information on a display such as an LCD, so there is a disadvantage that a clock cannot be attached to a phone that cannot be equipped with a display, especially at night. It was difficult to see the time display in dark places unless it was a certified display, and visually impaired people were unable to tell the time.

[Means for solving problems]

The telephone of the present invention is a telephone having an amplifier and a speaker for loudspeaker reception, and includes a voice synthesis section connected to an input of the amplifier, a clock section that outputs time data, and a time data of the clock section that is transferred to the voice synthesis section. and a sui-sochi connected to the control section, and the control section uses the press of the switch as a trigger to transmit the time data read from the clock section to the speech synthesis section, so that speech is synthesized. It is characterized in that time information is output from the speaker.

〔Example〕

Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a circuit block diagram showing an embodiment of the telephone according to the present invention, including a public address switch 11, a communication circuit 12, and a handset 1.
3, a clock section 6 that outputs time data, a control section 5 that receives the time data from the clock section 6 and transmits the time data to the voice synthesis section 4 using the press of the switch 7 as a trigger; 5, an amplifying section 2 connected to the output section of the speech synthesizing section 4 and a meter contact of the public address switch 11 to amplify the sound; Speaker 3 to connect
It consists of

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be explained.

When the switch 7 is pressed, the control section 5 receives time data from the clock section 6 and transfers the time data to the speech synthesis section 4.The speech synthesis section 4 synthesizes the transferred time data into speech, for example, "8". Amplifier 2
At this time, if you leave the loudspeaker switch 11 or the contact connected to the flake side, that is, the communication circuit 12, and connect it to the meter contact connected to the amplifier 2 and the voice synthesizer 4, the voice synthesized sound will be amplified by the speaker 3. It is transmitted from the line side and can convey time information to the other party during the call using synthesized speech.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, the present invention has the effect that by synthesizing time data and outputting it from a loudspeaker, it is possible to know the time even from a telephone that cannot be equipped with a display due to its design. Even people with visual impairments can tell the time under conditions where it is difficult to see the display in the dark.
Additionally, if you want to know who is on the phone or what time it is, you can tell them the time using a synthesized voice.
