Abstract

PURPOSE: A card paying telephone is provided, so that a user can call in a place required and pay telephone fees by a card, by connecting one card paying telephone with other general telephone. CONSTITUTION: A card paying telephone builds a data storage(20) and a controller(16) thereon. The telephone automatically delivers a connecting number, a card number, and an input completing signal of a communication server(30). The telephone comprises a connection terminal(2), an external dial signal receiver(12), a connection confirming signal recognizer(14), and the controller(16). The connection terminal connects other general telephone(40). The external dial signal receiver detects a dial button input signal of the general telephone. The connection confirming signal recognizer receives a connection-confirming signal transmitted from the communication server. The controller controls the dial button input signal, if the dial button input signal is detected through the external dial signal receiver. The telephone delivers a signal to connect the dial button input signal to the communication server. If the connection-confirming signal of the communication server is sensed through the connection confirming signal recognizer, a card number and a telephone number of other person are delivered.

Description

Card payment telephone {Card payment telephone}

The present invention relates to a card payment type telephone, and more particularly, to a card payment type telephone, which is able to receive a card payment type telephone bill even through a connected general telephone.

In homes and offices, several telephones can be connected to a single CO line and installed at each necessary place so that the telephone can be conveniently called at the place where the telephone is located.

On the other hand, the so-called 'separate communication' card payment telephone bill system is a method in which users purchase a card with a certain amount of money to register with the telecommunications company, and pay the call charges using the registered card, using a general telephone There is a benefit of discounting the call charges rather than making calls, and users are increasing.

However, in order to make such a card payment method using a general telephone, it is inconvenient to use because it requires pressing a large number of digit-specific communication access numbers and card numbers before pressing the other party's telephone number. Therefore, in recent years, a card-payment type telephone that automatically transmits the number has been introduced. However, since such a card-type telephone can not cope with all of the multiple phones installed in the home or office, there is a need to make it possible to simply use a conventional telephone and receive the card payment telephone benefits.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made to solve the problems described above, and an object of the present invention is to provide a card-payment type telephone that allows the phone to benefit from the card payment method as well as the other general telephone connected.

According to the present invention, in the card payment method telephone 10 in which the data storage unit 20 and the control unit 16 are built in to automatically transmit a connection number, a card number, and an input completion signal of the separate communication server 30. The card payment telephone 10 has a connection terminal 2 for connecting another general telephone 40 and an external dial signal receiver 12 for detecting a dial button input signal of another general telephone 40. The connection confirmation signal recognition unit 14 for receiving the connection confirmation signal transmitted from the separate communication server 30 is configured to be connected to the control unit 16, respectively. When the dial button input signal of the telephone 40 is detected, it is controlled by the control unit 16 to transmit a signal to be connected to the separate communication server 30, and through the connection confirmation signal recognition unit 14, the separate communication server 30 ) When the connection confirmation signal of) is detected And the card number by a fisherman 16, the other side is provided with a telephone number such as a payment card, characterized in that telephone system adapted to be sent out.

Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings. 1 is a block diagram according to an embodiment of the present invention. Referring to this, the card payment telephone 10 includes a control unit 16, a data storage unit 20 connected to the control unit 16, a tone generating unit 17, a remote control unit 25 and The connection confirmation signal recognition unit 24, the keypad 18 and the like are provided as in the prior art.

In addition, the card payment type telephone 10 is connected to the other terminal telephone 40 to the other terminal phone 40, and another general telephone 40 in order to receive a card payment method of the other general telephones Hook switch 22 for connecting or disconnecting the 40 to the trunk line 32, and between the card payment telephone 10 and the other general telephone 40 and the impedance of each telephone (10, 40) Impedance matching unit 11 for separating the ground, and under the control of the control unit 16 and the other general telephone 40 to transmit the phone number in the transmission mode, in the receiving mode so that the card number is not sent A relay 13 operating, an external dial receiver 12 for detecting a dial button input signal of another general telephone 40, a voltage sensing unit 15 for detecting a voltage drop flowing in a trunk line, and the separate communication server Contacts sent from The connection confirmation signal recognition unit 14 which receives the quick confirmation signal is further connected to the control unit 16.

At this time, the external dial receiver 12 receives a dial button input signal of another general telephone 40 and transmits it to the controller 16, and the voltage sensing unit 15 is a handset (not shown) of another general telephone 40. When a voltage drop generated from the trunk line is detected and the voltage drops below the set value when the voltage is dropped. The connection confirmation signal recognition unit 14 detects the connection confirmation signal transmitted from the separate communication server 30 and transmits a predetermined signal to the control unit 16, thereby controlling the card number, telephone number, and connection by the control unit 16. The completion signal can be sent. The control unit 16 via the tone generating unit 17 to be connected to the special communication server 30 when a dial button input signal of another general telephone 40 is detected through the external dial signal receiving unit 12. After transmitting the access number, when the access confirmation signal is detected through the access confirmation signal recognition unit 14, a card number, an area code, a phone number, an input completion signal, and the like are transmitted to make a call.

Therefore, the card payment method telephone 10 can receive the card payment method call service to other general telephones 40 connected thereto, so that consumers who are using conventional telephones continue to use the general telephones as well. There is an advantage that you can receive the discount rate of payment method.

As described above, according to the present invention, the card payment method phone can be connected to another general phone to one card payment method phone while receiving a convenient telephone call at the place where the user wants to receive a discount on the card payment method There is an advantage.
