FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating a driving circuit unit disposed in a call receiver according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 8 is a detailed diagram illustrating a configuration of a call receiver according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention.

7 and 8, the call receiver 100 constituting the hybrid wireless paging system according to the embodiment of the present invention transmits and receives a call signal, notification (or display) of call information, charging of a battery, And a driving circuit 190 for a wireless charging function. Electronic circuits and integrated circuits are disposed on a printed circuit board (PCB) to constitute a driving circuit unit 190.

The driving circuit unit 190 includes a communication unit 191, a control unit 192, a plurality of connectors 193, a vibration driving unit 194, an acoustical driving unit 195, a power converter 196, a battery 197, 198 and a wireless charge driver 199. [

Referring to FIGS. 2 and 3, the battery 197 and the power converter 196 are electrically connected to the connector 193 through an electric wire. When the power cable 180 is connected to the power supply connector 110 of the call receiver 100, the power converter 196 converts the input power source to a direct current (DC) power of 3 to 18 V, (DC) power source to the battery 197. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the power source converter 196 can convert the input power to a direct current (DC) power source of 18V to 24V.

Also, the power converter 196 supplies the positive (+) of the direct current (DC) power source of 3 to 24 V to the first front charging terminal 162 and the first back charging terminal 172, (-) of the DC power source to the second front charging terminal 164 and the second rear charging terminal 174. In this way, a positive (+) power source of 3 to 24 V is supplied to the first front-side charging terminal 162 and the first back-side charging terminal 172 of the paging receiver 100, (-) of a direct current (DC) power source of 3 to 24 V is supplied to the double backside charging terminal 174 to simultaneously charge the stacked plurality of paging receivers 100 as shown in Figures 5 to 6C .

The communication unit 191 receives the call signal transmitted from the call transmitter 200 (see FIG. 1), converts the received call signal into data, and transmits the data to the control unit 192. Further, the communication unit 191 transmits the wait signal input by the control unit 192 to the call transmitter 200. [

Here, the paging signal transmitted from the paging transmitter 200 to the communication unit 191 is a signal informing the user of the end of the standby sequence and the standby sequence. The waiting signal transmitted from the communication unit 191 to the paging transmitter 200 is a signal for informing the paging transmitter 200 that the paging receiver 100 normally operates and is waiting for a paging signal. The call transmitter 200 can recognize that the paging receiver 100 of each ID (ID) operates normally within the communication radius and is waiting for a paging signal by receiving the paging signal.

The control unit 192 of the pager 100 operates the vibration driver 194 and the acoustical driver 195 to generate the standby sequence information and the standby sequence information So that the vibration and sound signals indicating the termination are outputted. That is, at the time of inputting the paging signal, the control unit 192 controls the vibration driving unit 194 to generate vibration indicating the end of the waiting sequence. When the call signal is input, the control unit 192 controls the acoustical driving unit 195 so that the standby sequence information and the end sequence of the standby sequence are output through the speaker (not shown).

The call receiver 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention not only has a function of notifying the user of the standby information (standby sequence, standby end), but also a function of driving the portable electronic device 184 190 includes a wired charge drive unit 198 and a wireless charge drive unit 199.

4, when the user wishes to charge the portable electronic device 184 with a wired charging method, one terminal of the charging cable 182 is connected to the charging connector 120, and the charging cable 182 is connected to the charging connector 182. [ It is possible to connect the other terminal of the portable electronic device 184 to the charging connector of the portable electronic device 184. [ When the charging cable 182 is connected to the charging connector 120, the wire charging driver 198 may transmit the electric charge stored in the battery 197 to the portable electronic device 184 so that charging is performed in a wired manner.

When the user wishes to charge the portable electronic device with a wireless charging scheme, the calling receiver 100 is placed on the wireless tag. Here, the wireless tag can be placed on a specific place or table in the store. The wireless charging driver 199 turns on the wireless charging function only when recognizing the wireless tag. On the contrary, the wireless charging driver 199 keeps the wireless charging function off when the wireless tag is not recognized. Here, the wireless charging function may be an inductive method or a magnetic resonance method, and the portable electronic device 184 may be disposed at an upper portion or a lower portion of the calling receiver 100 to charge the portable electronic device 184 in a non- have. The wireless charging function can not be used when the user takes out the calling receiver 100 out of the store because the wireless charging can be performed only when the user uses the wireless tag disposed in the store. That is, the wireless charging function can be used when the calling receiver 100 is located in the store, and it is possible to prevent the calling receiver 100 from being cut off for the purpose of using the wireless charging function outside the store.

Here, the control unit 192 may control the driving of the wired charge driver 198 and the wireless charge driver 199 according to the position of the paging receiver 100. Specifically, since the call receiver 100 is likely to be lost or stolen, the wired charging function and the wireless charging function are activated only in a predetermined communication radius (for example, inside the store).

To this end, when the calling receiver 100 is out of range, the controller 192 controls the wired charging driver 198 to turn off the wired charging function. In addition, when the calling receiver 100 is out of range, the controller 192 controls the wireless charging driver 199 to turn off the wireless charging function.

However, the present invention is not limited to this, and the wired charging function may be activated only when the wired charging driver 198 recognizes the wireless tag disposed in the store. The wired charging function can not be used even if the user brings the calling receiver 100 to the home because the wired charging can be performed only if the user uses the wireless tag disposed in the store.

The out of range of the calling receiver 100 can be confirmed by the following method. When the call receiver 100 does not receive any signal from the call transmitter 200 within a predetermined time in the call waiting state of the call receiver 100, the controller 192 determines that the call receiver 100 is out of the communication radius, It can be turned off. To this end, the call receiver 100 and the call transmitter 200 transmit / receive a signal for confirming the call waiting time on a predetermined time basis. It is possible to determine that the paging receiver 100 is out of the communication radius when the transmission / reception of the signal for confirming the call waiting is not normally performed. On the other hand, when the signal for confirming the call waiting is normally transmitted, it can be determined that the paging receiver 100 is normally positioned within the communication radius.

Here, if the call transmitter 200 does not receive any signal from the call receiver 100 of the specific ID (ID) after transmitting the call signal to the call receiver 100 of the specific ID, It is determined that the receiver 100 is out of the communication radius. Thereafter, the call transmitter 200 registers the communication radius deviation of the paging receiver 100, and deletes the paging receiver deviated from the communication radius from the paging list.

Since the wireless charging function is activated only when the wireless charging driver 199 recognizes the wireless tag, the wireless charging function can be automatically turned off when the calling receiver 100 is out of the communication radius.

However, not only the paging receiver 100, but also radio tags placed on the table can be stolen or lost. The controller 192 controls the wireless charging driver 199 to turn off the wireless charging function when the calling receiver 100 is outside the communication radius even if the wireless tag is recognized. .

That is, when the user goes out of the store with the paging receiver 100, the wired charging function and the wireless charging function can not be used, so that the paging receiver 100 is taken out of the store using the additional function of the paging receiver 100 (Loss or theft) can be prevented.

When the calling receiver 100 is out of range, the controller 192 controls the power converter 196 to turn off the charging function of the battery 197, It is possible to prevent the generation of a direct current (DC) power source.

As an additional function of the paging receiver 100 of the present invention, when the paging receiver 100 is out of range, it is possible for the paging receiver 100 to vibrate and acoustically display an out of communication radius have. This allows the call receiver 100 to recognize that it is outside the communication radius if the user inadvertently takes the call receiver 100 out of the store.

In addition, when the paging receiver 100 is out of range, it is possible to acoustically output that all the functions of the paging receiver 100 are off. This enables the user to recognize that the additional function of the paging receiver 100 can not be used.

9 is a diagram illustrating a driving method of a hybrid radio paging system according to an embodiment of the present invention.

9, the IDs of the plurality of paging receivers 100 are registered in the paging transmitter 200 to initiate communication between the paging receiver 100 and the paging transmitter 200 (S10). Thereafter, the call receiver 100 is paid to the user so that the waiting sequence information and the end of the waiting sequence can be announced.

Then, when the communication between the paging receiver 100 and the paging transmitter 200 is started, the wired charging function of the paging receiver 100 is turned on in a paging standby state of the paging receiver 100 (S20).

Then, in the call waiting state of the paging receiver 100, the recognition of the wireless tag is confirmed in order to activate the wireless charging function (S30).

As a result of the determination in S30, when the wireless tag is recognized, the wireless charging function is turned on (S40). On the other hand, if it is determined in step S30 that the wireless tag is not recognized, the wireless charging function is not activated. That is, the wireless charging function is turned off.

Then, it is confirmed whether the paging receiver 100 is located within a communication radius (for example, inside the store) (S50). If the call receiver 100 can not receive any signal from the call transmitter 200 within a predetermined time in the call waiting state of the call receiver 100, the call receiver 100 may determine that the communication radius is out of the range. For this purpose, the call receiver 100 transmits and receives a signal for confirming a call waiting time on a unit of a predetermined time interval between the call receiver 100 and the call transmitter 200, and when the signal for confirming the call waiting is not normally transmitted, Can be determined to be out of the communication radius.

As a result of the determination in S50, when the paging receiver 100 deviates from the communication radius, the paging transmitter 200 registers with the paging transmitter 200 that the paging receiver 100 deviates from the communication radius, A paging receiver is deleted (S60).

The controller 192 of the call receiver 100 controls the wired charge driver 198 and the wireless charge driver 199 to control the wired charge function and the wireless charge And turns off the function (S70).

When the calling receiver 100 is out of range, the controller 192 controls the power converter 196 to turn off the charging function of the battery 197, It is possible to prevent the generation of a direct current (DC) power source. Thus, it is possible to prevent the call receiver 100 from being lost or stolen by preventing all functions of the call receiver 100 from being activated in a space other than the designated space (store).

Then, when the paging receiver 100 is out of range, the paging receiver 100 vibrates and acoustically outputs a state outside the communication radius. It is possible for the user to recognize that the paging receiver 100 is out of the communication radius. In addition, when the paging receiver 100 is out of range, it is possible to acoustically output that all the functions of the paging receiver 100 are off. This enables the user to recognize that the additional function of the paging receiver 100 can not be used.

On the other hand, if the paging receiver 100 is located within the communication radius as a result of the check in S50, the call waiting operation is maintained (S80).

Then, the wired and wireless charging functions of the paging receiver 100 are maintained (S90).

The hybrid wireless paging system and its driving method according to an embodiment of the present invention may be configured to turn off the wired and wireless charging functions when the user takes the paging receiver 100 out of the store and out of range, off to prevent loss or theft of the paging receiver 100 to take advantage of the additional function of the paging receiver 100. [

In addition, when the paging receiver 100 is out of range, the paging receiver 100 vibrates and acoustically displays a state outside the communication radius so that the paging receiver 100 can inform the user of the communication radius It is possible to recognize an off state.

It is also possible to provide the user with an additional function of the paging receiver 100 by acoustically indicating that all functions of the paging receiver 100 are turned off when the paging receiver 100 is out of range It can be recognized that it is not available.

It will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes in form and details may be made therein without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention as defined by the following claims and their equivalents.
