Abstract

PURPOSE:To use a telephone set as a complete personal use by providing a magnetic card reader to a telephone set and performing dialing only when an ID code registered in the inside of the telephone set in advance and the read ID code are coincident. CONSTITUTION:When a modular plug is connected to the line, an exchange of a station 13 detects it to prepare reception. When a card is inserted to the telephone set 1, a card reader 5 reads the ID code and it is sent to a CPU 2 via a card reader interface 4. The CPU 2 uses an ID code comparator circuit 8 and compares the possessor ID code in an ID code storage circuit 7 with the read ID code. When a coincidence signal is outputted, an ID information corresponding pulse is sent from a pulse sending circuit 6 via a network 9. A station 13 refers to a data base 14 based on the received card information, analyzes reception propriety, accumulated or residual personal information and returns a dial tone in case of proper dialing. Thus, the caller applies conventional dialing.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (Field of Application of the Filter) The present invention relates to a telephone equipped with a service function for individuals.

(Prior Art) Some conventional telephones are equipped with a card reader. This telephone has a function of automatically sending the information of the card read by the card reader to the telephone station according to a certain procedure, but there is no known telephone that stores the user's ID code in advance. Also, the size is quite large, so it is not suitable for carrying.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) Plug-in telephones have been known for some time, but
Since exchanges cannot identify callers, they have the disadvantage of being unable to provide services based on analysis of callers' personal information, such as restricting calls and collecting charges.

Additionally, some public telephones are equipped with card readers. This is configured to deduct the call fee from the predetermined amount based on the billing pulse from the station, and does not have a function to automatically send the caller's personal information to the station.

Furthermore, since it does not have a function to process a call only when the ID code stored in the T-phone internally and the ID code of the card match, there is a drawback that the phone cannot be used completely for personal use. .

The object of the invention is to provide a telephone that can be used completely for personal use.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above object, a personal telephone according to the present invention includes a transmitter/receiver circuit for making calls, a modular plug that is detachable from a telephone line, and a card ID [@]. A magnetic card reader to read the information, and the ID of the owner of the telephone.1) A code storage circuit, and the ID read by the magnetic card reader.
The code and the ID code are comprised of a comparison circuit that compares the contents of the circuit, and a control means that sends the ID information read from the card reader to the station when the comparison circuit detects a match. .

(Example) Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to all the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram illustrating one embodiment of a telephone according to the invention.

In the figure, the telephone '@1 has a central processing unit 2, a keypad 3, a card reader interface 4, and a card reader 5.
, pulse sending circuit 6. ID code storage circuit 7. It is composed of an ID code comparison circuit 8, a network 9, and a microphone 10.

Network 9 has earphone 11 and modular plug 12
is connected.

N The stuffing machine 1 is connected to the station 13 through all the modular plugs 12. The station database 14 is connected to the station 13 n1
The database 14 stores sender's personal information.

The operation of the telephone according to the present application is as follows.

First, the caller connects the modular plug 12 to the line.

The central office exchange@13 detects that the modular plug 12 is connected to the line and prepares to receive all card information from the telephone.

When the card is inserted into the telephone 1, the Il'l code registered in the card is read out by the card reader 5 and sent to the central processing unit 2 via the card reader interface 4. The central processing unit 2 sends the ID code of the telephone owner stored in the ID code storage circuit 7 and the ID code read and sent by the card reader 5 to the iID code comparison circuit 8 for comparison. When a match detection signal is output from the ID code comparison circuit 8, the card information is analyzed and the pulse sending circuit 6 is instructed to send a pulse corresponding to the information to the station 13 via the network 9. do.

The station 13 refers to the entire database 14 based on the received card information, analyzes the personal information stored in the database 14, such as whether or not the call is possible, accumulated or remaining charges, etc., and if the call is 4*0'T. Returns a dial tone to the caller. When the caller hears the dial tone from the station 13, he or she will connect using the normal calling operation.

(Effects of the Invention) As explained above, the present invention provides a telephone with a magnetic card reader, and performs a call process only when the ID code registered in advance inside the telephone matches the ID code read from the card. This configuration has the advantage that the telephone can be used completely for personal use.

In addition, since the card information read from the card reader is sent to the bureau, the bureau refers to the personal information stored in the database and analyzes it before providing services. This has the effect of being able to receive services.

Furthermore, since the data information storage section is located on the central office side and the telephone itself does not have a storage section for storing all such information, the telephone can be made smaller and lighter, making it convenient for use in three bands.
