Abstract

PURPOSE:To attain the transmission of an opposite subscriber number by inputting information relating to the name of the opposite subscriber in a telephone device servicing the opposite subscriber via a communication exchange network. CONSTITUTION:When the name of the opposite subscriber is inputted from a name inputting section 33 and the opposite subscriber number is transmitted, a caller depresses an off-hook button 23 and a name display button 29 and inputs the name of the opposite subscriber from a name inputting button 33. Since the name of the opposite subscriber is displayed on a display section 21, when a number display button 30 is depressed, a control section 8 reads the name stored in a memory 7, and when the name is coincident each other, the opposite subscriber number stored on the same address is read and displayed on a display section 22. When the caller confirms the number and depresses a send button 25, the displayed opposite subscriber number is transmitted to an exchange station for attaining servicing.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Technical Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a telephone device capable of transmitting the subscriber number of the other subscriber by inputting information regarding the name of the other subscriber.

Prior Art and Problems Conventional telephone number storage and dialing methods and devices include the abbreviated dialing method of a telephone in a fixed telephone network. In the speed dialing method, the number of the other subscriber and the desired abbreviated digits (2 digits from 00 to 19) are registered in advance in the storage device of the exchange, and then the code (marked with an asterisk) and the abbreviated digits are dialed. This makes it possible to connect to the other subscriber. Speed dialing is extremely convenient because all you have to do is write or memorize the correspondence between the subscriber's name and the two-digit number on a notepad, so you don't have to memorize all the digits like you would for a regular call. It is highly sexual. However, with the speed dial system, the number of memorized numbers is 2.
There is a drawback that the number of numbers is limited to 0, and the calling party has to memorize the correspondence between abbreviated digits and subscriber names.

A possible solution to this problem is to use a phone memo pad or stick a memo on the phone. However, in the former case, it is very inconvenient to have a wireless telephone and also take out a memo pad and dial while looking at it.

In addition, in the latter case, there is not only an aesthetic problem, but also a privacy problem as the memo may be seen by others.

Purpose of the Invention The present invention is an attempt to improve the above-mentioned drawbacks, and its purpose is to make it possible to send out the subscriber number by inputting information regarding the name of the subscriber. . Examples will be described in detail below.

Embodiment of the Invention FIG. 1 is a block diagram of an embodiment of the present invention, in which the present invention is applied to a car telephone. In the figure, 1 is a transmitting and receiving antenna, 2 is a transmitting and receiving duplexer, 3 is a receiving section, 4 is a synthesizer section, 5 is a transmitting section, 6 is a power amplifying section, 7 is a memory, and 8 is from a microprocessor, etc. The control section includes a keyboard section 9, a display section 1o, and a handset and receiver 11.

FIG. 2 is an external view of the keyboard section 9 and the display section 1°, in which 21 is a name display section for displaying the name of the other subscriber, 22 is a number display section for displaying the subscriber number of the other subscriber, 25 is an off-hook button, 24 is an on-hook button, 25 is a send button, 26 is a clear button, 27 is a memory in button, 28 is a memory out button, 29 is a name display button, 30 is a number display button, 61 is an initial button, 52 33 is a dial number section, and 33 is a name and human resources section.

FIG. 3 is a diagram showing an example of the configuration of the memory 7, in which the first six words of each address #1 to ## are used as an area for storing the name of the other subscriber; This is for the case where the area corresponding to one word is used as an area for storing the subscriber number corresponding to the name of the other subscriber stored in the area corresponding to the first six words. In this case, assuming that one character of the name consists of 7 bits and one character of the dial number consists of 4 bits, one subscriber has 7 (bits) x 6 + 4 (bits) x 12 = 9.
A capacity of 0 (bit) is required. Therefore, if the number of stored subscribers is n, a capacity of 90 x n (bits) is required. For example, even if the number of stored subscribers is 50, the storage capacity will only need to be 4.5 bits. If you want to store the name and subscriber number of the other subscriber in the memory 7, press the memory in button 27 provided on the keyboard section 9, and then press the name input button 33 (3). ) Enter the name of the other subscriber, and enter the subscriber number of the other subscriber in the dial number section 32. When the above operation is performed, the control section 8 searches for an empty address in the memory 7, and stores the name inputted from the name input section 63 and the subscriber number inputted from the dial number section 32 at the empty address. It is something.

The operation of the telephone device shown in FIG. 1 when making a call will be described below with reference to the flowchart in FIG.

The operation at the time of receiving a call is the same as that of the currently available car telephone service, so the explanation will be omitted here.

When making a call, the caller first takes the receiver off-hook and then presses the off-hook button 23. Next, when performing normal dialing, the caller enters the subscriber number of the other party in the dial number section 32 and presses the send button 25. When the off-hook button 23 is pressed and the other party's subscriber number is input, the control unit 8 stores it in an internal memory (not shown).
After that, when it is detected that the send button 25 has been pressed, the long number (4) of the remote party stored in the memory is sent to the transmitter 5, the power amplifier 6, the transmitter/receiver duplexer 2, and the transmitter/receiver. It is transmitted via the shared antenna 1. Similarly, even after a certain period of time has passed after storing the other party's number in the memory, the send button 2
If it is not possible to detect that 5 has been pressed, the control unit 8
ends its operation and returns to the initial state.

In addition, when transmitting the subscriber number by inputting the name of the subscriber from the name input unit 33, the caller presses the off-hook button 23, then presses the name display button 29, and then Enter the name of the other subscriber through the name human resources section 33. When the name of the other subscriber is displayed after the name display button 29 is pressed, the control unit 8 allows the caller to press the number display button 30.
Press.

When the control unit 8 detects that the number display button 50 has been pressed, it sequentially reads out the names of the other subscribers stored in the memory 7 starting from address 1, and selects the same name as the name input from the name input unit 33. When detected, the other party's subscriber number stored at the same location as the name is read out and the other party's subscriber number is displayed on the number display section 22. For example, if "Taro Yoshida" is input as the name of the other subscriber from the name input section 33, the control section 8 will send the other subscriber number 03-314-4225 stored at address 1 of the memory 7 (see FIG. 3). ) will be displayed on the number display section 22. Similarly, if the name input from the name input unit 36 is not stored in the memory 7, the control unit 8 displays this on the number display unit 22.

After confirming the other party's subscriber number displayed on the number display section 22, the calling party presses the send button 25. When the control unit 8 detects that the send button 25 has been pressed within a certain period of time after displaying the partner subscriber number, the controller 8 transmits the partner subscriber number displayed on the number display unit 22 to the transmitting unit 5, the power amplifying unit 6, Transmission/reception duplexer 2,
The signal is sent to the exchange via the transmitting/receiving antenna 1, and a conversation is established. Further, if it is not detected that the send button 25 has been pressed even after a certain period of time has elapsed, the operation is terminated and the operation returns to the initial state. If there is no need to confirm the subscriber number of the other party, the calling party presses the send button 25 after the name of the other subscriber is displayed on the name display section 21.

Accordingly, the control unit 8 operates the memory 7 in the same manner as described above.
The subscriber number of the other party is read out from the subscriber station, and the subscriber number of the other party is sent to the exchange.

In the above-described embodiment, the subscriber number is sent by inputting the name of the subscriber; however, by inputting the first letter of the subscriber's name,
It is also possible to send out the subscriber number of the other party. Hereinafter, with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 5, the operation when transmitting the subscriber number of the other party by inputting the first character of the name will be explained.

After the caller goes off-hook, press the off-hook button 23.
, then press the initial button 61, then enter the first letter of the other subscriber's name from the name input section 65 (for example, if the other subscriber's name is Taro Yoshida, enter y), then press Memory out button 28
Press. When the control unit 8 detects that the memory out button 28 (7) has been pressed after the first letter of the name has been input, the control unit 8 sequentially reads the first letter of the other subscriber's name stored in the memory 7 starting from address 1. reading,
When the first character that is the same as the first character input from the name input section 33 is detected, the name and subscriber number of the other subscriber stored at that address are displayed on the name display section 21 and number display section 22, respectively.

When the name and subscriber number of the other subscriber are displayed on the name display section 21 and the number display section 22, the caller presses the send button 25 if the displayed name and subscriber number are the ones desired. , if it is not what you want, press the memory out button 28. When the control section 8 detects that the send button 25 has been pressed, it sends the subscriber number displayed on the number display section 22 to the exchange, and when it detects that the memory out button 28 has been pressed, it displays the name of the subscriber. The same process as described above is performed starting from the address next to the address where the name displayed in section 22 is stored. Similarly, after the control section 8 displayed the name and subscriber number on the name display section 21 and the number display section 22, the send button 25 or (8) was not pressed even after a certain period of time had passed. If so, the operation ends and returns to the initial state.

Furthermore, if the name of the subscriber desired by the caller is not stored in the memory 7, the control section 8 displays this on the number display section 22.

Although this was not explained in the above embodiment, it is useful to provide a password to prevent others from viewing the contents of the memory 7. This will be explained with reference to FIG. 6 (2), ω).

Figure 6 (2) shows that only when the correct pin code is entered,
12 is a flowchart showing operations when operations after off-hook are enabled. When the control unit 8 detects that the off-hook button 23 has been pressed, it checks whether the current operation mode is the password mode by referring to the internal memory. If it is not the password mode, the lock is released to enable subsequent operations, and if it is the password mode, the password code input from the keyboard section 9 is compared with the password code stored in the internal memory.

If the comparison matches, the lock is unlocked and subsequent operations are possible, and the same PIN code as the PIN code is stored in the internal memory even after a certain period of time has passed after detecting that the off-hook button 23 has been pressed. If no code is input, the control section 8 ends its operation and returns to the initial state. Similarly, when the operation mode is set to the password mode, the caller presses a predetermined button (for example, # and 0) in the dial number section 62, and
When # and 0 are pressed, the internal memory stores information that the operation mode will be the password mode.

Further, FIG. 6 (5) is a flowchart showing the operation when the memory contents of the memory 7 can be read out only when the correct password code is input. When it is detected that it has been pressed, it is checked whether the operating mode is the password mode or not, and if it is not the password mode, the lock is released and the contents stored in the memory 21 are displayed on the name display section 21 and number display section 22. In the case of the password mode, the password code input from the keyboard section 9 is compared with the password code stored in the internal memory.

If the comparison matches, the contents stored in the memory 7 are displayed, and even if a certain period of time has elapsed after detecting that the memory out 28 was pressed, the same PIN code as the PIN code stored in the internal memory is displayed. If not entered,
The control unit 8 ends its operation and returns to the initial state.

Similarly, in the above-mentioned embodiment, the present invention is applied to a car telephone device, but it goes without saying that the present invention may also be applied to a general telephone device.

As described in detail, the present invention stores the name of the other subscriber and the subscriber number of the other subscriber in correspondence in the memory, and controls the control means (in the embodiment, the control unit 8). ) reads out the subscriber number of the other party from the memory based on the input means (Kiji character etc. in the embodiment) and sends the subscriber number of the other party, so it is necessary to input the name of the subscriber. However, there is an advantage that it is possible to talk to the other subscriber.
