Abstract

PURPOSE:To send a reproduced output from a sound recording and reproducing circuit as a background tone during calling by a transmitter by providing a mixing circuit inputting, a transmitter output and a sound recording and reproducing circuit output and outputting the result through mixture to a transmission circuit. CONSTITUTION:A recording medium recorded with music or audio or the like is mounted to a recording and reproducing circuit 1 and an output is given to a communication line 7 via a mixing circuit 6. A switch 3 switches the output of a transmitter 2 to the reproduced output of the reproduction circuit 1 to give an output to the mixture circuit 6 when a reproduction request of the message comes from a visiting location. The mixing circuit 6 has a mixing function for the voice from the transmitter 2 and the voice from the reproducing circuit 1 to adjust the sound volume to mix and output music or birdcall from the reproducing circuit 1 in mixture while the conversation from the transmitter 2, for example, as the background tone. Thus, the reproduced output from the sound recording and reproducing circuit is sent as the background tone during the conversation by the transmitter.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention inputs reproduced audio from a recording/reproducing circuit into a transmitting circuit that transmits transmitted audio from a telephone transmitter, and transmits the input to a communication line. Relating to a telephone with a recording/playback circuit.

[Conventional technology]

Conventional telephones with a recording/playback circuit extract the recorded voice directly from the recording/playback circuit and listen to it through a loudspeaker, or when a call is made from the communication line and a playback instruction is received, the transmitter circuit records and plays back the voice from the transmitter. It had a configuration that switched to the circuit and sent the reproduced audio to the communication line.

A conventional example will be explained with reference to FIG. In FIG. 2, the transmitting circuit of the telephone with a recording and reproducing circuit includes a recording and reproducing circuit 1. Transmitter 2. Switcher 3. and an amplifier 4, and is connected to a communication line 7 via a telephone circuit 5. The recording and reproducing circuit 1 normally serves as an answering machine and requests and records a message in response to an incoming call while the user is absent (the configuration for this function is not shown), and upon receiving a reproduction request, reproduces and outputs the recorded voice. The transmitter 2 is that of a normal telephone.

When the telephone is called and the switching device 3 receives a playback request from the recording/playback circuit 1 from the connection destination via the communication line 7 (the configuration of this function is not shown), the switch 3 switches the transmitter 2 in response to the playback request. Switch the connection to recording/playback circuit 1. amplifier 4
amplifies the output of the switching device 3 and outputs it to the communication line via the telephone circuit 5.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

As mentioned above, conventional telephones with a recording/playback circuit are configured so that when the recording/playback circuit is connected to a communication line, the switcher disconnects the transmitter, so the background sound can be played while transmitting. Furthermore, when the reproduced audio is frequently transmitted during a dialogue, a switching operation is required in addition to the reproduction operation, which is inconvenient.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a telephone with a recording/reproducing circuit that solves the above-mentioned problems.

[Means for solving problems]

The telephone set with a recording/reproducing circuit according to the present invention is characterized in that the transmitting circuit includes a mixing circuit that inputs and outputs a mixed voice from the transmitter and the reproduced voice from the recording/reproducing circuit.

〔Example〕

Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a functional block diagram showing one embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1, the transmitter circuit includes a switch 3 that inputs the transmitter 2, the playback output of the recording and reproducing circuit 1, and the transmitter 2, and outputs either one, and the output of the switch 3 and the output of the transmitter 2. Regeneration circuit 1
The telephone circuit 5 includes a mixing circuit 6 that inputs and mixes the outputs of the mixer 6, an amplifier 4 that amplifies the output of the mixing circuit 6, and a telephone circuit 5. Since the receiving circuit is not related to the gist of the present invention, illustration thereof is omitted.

The recording/playback circuit 1 is provided for a conventional answering machine, and it automatically answers an incoming call, receives and records a message, and also drives a switching device 3 to play the message when a message is requested from outside the home. Output the audio to the communication line 7.

Further, the recording and reproducing circuit 1 is equipped with a recording medium on which music, voice, etc. have been recorded, and outputs it to the communication line 7 via the mixing circuit 6. The switching device 3 switches the output of the transmitter 2 to the reproduction output of the recording and reproduction circuit 1 and outputs it to the mixing circuit 6 when there is a request to reproduce a message from outside. The mixing circuit 6 is the transmitter 2
It has a mixing function of the audio from the recording/playback circuit 1 and the sound from the recording/playback circuit 1, and adjusts the volume to mix music, bird sounds, etc. from the recording/playback circuit 1 as a background sound with dialogue from the transmitter 2. Output.

The output of the mixing circuit 6 is amplified by an amplifier 4 and connected to a communication line 7 via a telephone circuit 5.

Therefore, pre-recorded music is played as a background sound that cancels out the small but clearly audible sounds around the phone (family members talking, the sound of the radio, etc.), and the background sound is created for quiet conversations. can now be inserted and removed just by playing.

In the above embodiment, the mixing circuit is divided into blocks and is connected between the switch and the amplifier. The deployment position is not limited to the above description.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, the present invention provides a mixing circuit that inputs the output of the transmitter and the output of the recording/playback circuit to the transmitter circuit and outputs the mixed output. It is possible to obtain the effect of improving the service when using the telephone by being able to transmit the reproduction output from the reproduction circuit.
