Description

Internet phone interface device with a key input device {INTERNET PHONE INTERFACE DEVICE HAVING KEY INPUTTING DEVICE}

The present invention relates to an Internet phone interface device using a telephone, and more particularly, to an Internet phone interface device provided with a dedicated key input device having a shortcut function, which enables the use of an Internet phone client device as a general telephone.

Currently, most versions of Internet phone clients in use are handled mostly by software, and sound cards are used for voice input and output. Internet phone using such a sound card can be used only to use a headset equipped with a separate microphone and speaker function for input and output of voice signals, it is impossible to talk without the headset.

Referring to FIG. 1, in order to use the existing Internet phone client apparatus 1, a microphone for inputting a voice and a speaker for outputting a voice, or a headset 2 having the microphone and speaker functions, the microphone and the speaker Or you can connect the headset to the sound card that connects the headset to input and output voice.

However, since the Internet phone is used separately from the general telephone, it is inconvenient to have a telephone and a headset at the same time.

Therefore, in order to use the conventional Internet phone client version, not only has a disadvantage of having to separately provide a headset and a general telephone, but also has a disadvantage in that user convenience is reduced because there is no shortcut function.

The present invention has been made to improve the above-mentioned conventional problems, and allows a user to use an Internet phone client as a general telephone and includes a key input device equipped with a shortcut function, and connects it with a game port of a computer. It is an object of the present invention to provide an Internet phone interface device that allows a shortcut key to be used when using an Internet phone.

The present invention for achieving the above object, a key input device having a shortcut function; A computer used as an Internet phone client having a game port, a speaker, and a microphone port for receiving a shortcut key signal of the key input device; An internet phone server controlling internet phone calls by a signal from an internet phone client; And a telephone-sound card interface device for connecting the Internet phone client and the general phone to use the general phone as the Internet phone.

The Internet phone client stores a key input device application for analyzing a key input signal of a key input device, and an Internet phone client application for processing a connection between a speaker and a microphone port and a general telephone to enable an Internet phone function through a general telephone. It features.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings an embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail.

2 is a block diagram of an Internet phone interface device using a general telephone according to the present invention.

In Fig. 2, since the tip and ring signals of the general telephone 5 are not separated from the voice information of the microphone and the speaker, the device performing the SLIC function separates them and adjusts the level. In Fig. 2, the microphone and speaker signals separated through the speaker and microphone port 12 are connected to the sound card of the computer and the stereo connector.

Therefore, when the computer is used as the Internet phone client 10, the user can use the general telephone 5 as the Internet phone. At this time, the key input device 20 having a shortcut function is connected to the game port 11 of the computer to transmit a key input signal, the game port connection device to supply power to the Internet phone interface device of the present invention It is composed.

The Internet phone client 10 of FIG. 2 includes a speaker and a microphone port connected to the interface device 30.

3 is a block diagram of an Internet phone interface device according to the present invention.

In FIG. 3, the Internet phone client 10 includes an Internet phone client application 13 and a key input device application 14, and inputs an interface device 50 and a key input for performing an interface with the Internet phone. The device 20 is connected for signal transmission and reception, and the Internet phone client application 13 is connected with the Internet phone server 40 for signal transmission and reception.

The key input device 20 is configured to transmit a key input signal to the Internet phone client application 13 through the key input device application program 14.

By configuring in this way, a general telephone can be used as a speaker and a microphone function in an Internet phone client device, and a key input device having a shortcut function can be provided to significantly improve user convenience. The operation will be described as follows. The key input device 20 causes the application 14 for this to transmit the key input to the Internet phone client application 13. Therefore, each key input of the key input device 20 is connected through the game port 11 of the computer, and this game port has a plurality of input ports such as up, down, left, right, buttons, and the like. (13) monitors the input of the game port 11, and when a key input signal is input to perform the action corresponding to each shortcut key. For example, if the input of the redial button is connected to the game port of the 'up' When an input comes in, the key input device application 14 causes the Internet phone client application 13 to redial the most recently entered telephone number. In addition, by inputting the existing Internet address to correspond to the shortcut key in advance to make a phone call by pressing the shortcut key directly connected to the application.

Although the present invention has been described with specific examples, the present invention is not limited to these examples, and those skilled in the art may make various modifications and changes within the scope of the technical idea of the present invention.

As described above, according to the Internet phone interface device of the present invention, the Internet phone client device using the Internet, including a key input device having a shortcut key function to enable the use of the Internet phone client by using a normal telephone, By connecting to the game port, there is an advantage that the user can improve the convenience when using the Internet phone.
