On the other hand, the configuration of the present invention with respect to the ring size automatic control method of the wired and wireless telephone for achieving the above object is made as follows.

Registering the ringtone by transferring the ringtone data from the fixed device to the mobile device;

Storing data of the ringtone size step and ringtone size change time data displayed on the display unit by using the keypad;

Determining whether to change the ring size by comparing a current time and a time stored in the memory unit when a call is received;

If the change is requested in the step of determining whether to change the ringtone size, sending the data of the ringtone size step to the control unit ringing the ringtone corresponding to the corresponding ring size; is configured to include.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described a preferred configuration of the present invention.

As shown in Figure 2, the configuration and operation of the automatic ringtone control device of a wired and wireless telephone according to an embodiment of the present invention is performed as follows.

A keypad unit 20 for setting a ringtone size and setting a ringtone size change time;

A display unit 40 for displaying contents set by the keypad unit;

A memory unit (30) for storing data of a ringtone size step and ringtone size change time data set by the keypad;

A control unit 10 for controlling a ring size change when there is an incoming call;

Ringer control unit 50 for adjusting the ringer size under the control of the controller;

The keypad 20 has a key for setting a ringtone size and a ringtone change time, and the display 40 allows a menu window to be displayed on the LCD to adjust the ringtone according to time.

The memory unit 30 is the same memory as the EEPROM and stores the ringtone size step data and the ringtone size change time data by the keypad, and the controller 10 automatically adjusts the ringtone size so that the ringtone size can be automatically changed at the corresponding time. Overall control of the device.

On the other hand, as shown in Figure 3, the ring tone control unit 50 has two resistors and three TR switches to change the ring size by their operation.

The specific operation is as follows.

The first part of the ring output is composed of three TR switches and two resistors.

When TR switch 1 is turned on, TR switch 1 is connected in parallel with resistor 1. The resistance applied to TR switch 1 is smaller than resistor 1, so the ring tone is output through the switch. On the other hand, when the TR switch 1 is turned off, the ring tone passes through the resistor, so the ring size is smaller than before the ring tone passes through the resistor.

According to the 3bit value input to the ringer control unit 50, the ringtone size step can be divided into five stages. If the value is '001', step 1, '101' is step 2, and '011' is 3 Step, if it is '111' is 4 steps, if the value corresponding to the TR switch 3 is '0' is 5 steps (silence).

As described above, the ringer size can be adjusted using the resistor and the TR switch according to the 3bit value input to the controller 50.

If the DSP chip (CHIP) is used, it is possible to drive by adjusting the volume in the DSP chip without the above circuit. In other words, since the DSP chip has a volume adjustment value, it is possible to change the ring tone and change the size by changing the software.

If the DSP chip has a size of 1 to 10, the controller (CPU) can adjust the size by setting the corresponding value to the DSP chip.

Looking at a preferred embodiment of the ring size automatic control device of such a wired and wireless telephone with reference to Figures 2 and 3,

After displaying a menu window on the LCD that allows the ringer to be adjusted according to time using a function key of the keypad 20, the user selects a time and a ringtone size to change the ringtone using the keypad.

Then, the time and the ring tone level data are stored in the memory (EEPROM) unit 30. At this time, the time is stored in memory and the ringtone data is stored in 3bit format. In other words, if the ring size is set to 1 step and the time is set to 23:30 the next day, the time is stored in memory as 2300 and 0630, and the ring size level data value is 001 (the value in step 1). It is stored.

In this state, when there is an incoming call, the controller 10 checks whether data of a time for changing a ringtone is input to the memory 30 by using an interrupt routine. (10) sends the ringtone size step data of the default value to the ringtone control unit 50, and if there is input ringtone size change time data, compare the current time and the stored time, if the current time is within the stored time The ringer size step data stored in the memory 30 is transmitted to the ringer control unit 50. If the current time does not correspond to the stored time, the ringer size step data of the default value is sent to the ringer control unit 50.

The ring tone control unit 50 receiving the ring size level data outputs the corresponding ring tone to the speaker using a resistor and a TR switch.

The following describes the configuration operation of the present invention with respect to the automatic ring size control method.

Registering the ringtone by transferring the ringtone data from the fixed device to the mobile device;

Storing data of the ringtone size step and ringtone size change time data displayed on the display unit by using the keypad;

Determining whether to change the ring size by comparing a current time and a time stored in the memory unit when a call is received;

If the change is requested in the step of determining whether to change the ringtone size, sending the data of the ringtone size step to the control unit ringing the ringtone corresponding to the ring size corresponding thereto; is configured to include.

On the other hand, the step of registering the ringtone by transmitting the ringtone data from the fixed device to the portable device,

Changing and storing the ring type stored in the memory in the fixed device, sending the corresponding ring number changed from the fixed device to the mobile device as wireless data, receiving data from the mobile device and storing the ring number in memory. Characterized in consisting of steps.

Hereinafter, the configuration operation and the most preferable embodiment of the ring size automatic control method will be described with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5.

4 is a flowchart illustrating a method for automatically controlling a ring size. With reference to this it looks at a specific embodiment.

When the call is received, the ring number is registered to the fixed device and the portable device through the steps as shown in FIG. Then, the ringtone size step data and the ringtone size change time displayed on the display unit are stored in the memory using the keypad (S20).

When there is an incoming call (S30), it is determined whether the ringtone size is changed by comparing the current time with the stored time (40). At this time, if the current time does not fall within the stored time, the default value is sent to the ring control part, and the corresponding ring size is exported to the speaker. Send to the control unit (S50).

When the ring size change is required in the above, the ring size is received by the ring tone control unit so that the ring sounds through the speaker (60).

5 is a block diagram of registering a ringtone by transferring ringtone data from a fixed device to a portable device.

In order to register the ringtone to be heard when a call comes in, change the ringtone of the fixed device (S11) and store the ringtone number in the memory (S12). When a specific ring number is stored in the fixed device, the same ring number is sent to the mobile device as wireless data (S13).

As a general rule, the ring type stored in the fixed device and the portable device and the respective fixed number are stored in the same manner. Point. However, if the ringtone is stored separately only in the fixed device (such as when receiving a service by downloading) may be different from the above.

When the mobile device receives the data, the mobile device searches for the ringtone of the mobile device (S14) and determines whether the mobile device has the ringtone of the forwarded number (S15). (S16).

In the present invention as described above, when a call is received at a time set by the user, the phone ringer is changed to a ring tone different from the usual phone ring size and output to the speaker.

On the other hand, the matter shown in Figure 1 is shown only the control unit for adjusting the ring tone size of the normal phone, but other components of the configuration is a general matter as a configuration means of the general telephone, so the description on the drawings is omitted.

3 is shown only as a characteristic constituent means of the present invention, and a constituent means of a general telephone is not shown since it corresponds to known means.
