Definitions
- the present invention relates generally to an automatic dialing device for telephones, which is used when positioned on or near the body of a telephone, and more particularly to an automatic dialing device for telephones, which can easily dial one or more specific telephone numbers by a one-touch operation using a button.
- One of advertising methods is to distribute a variety of commodities for sales promotion. Most of conventional advertising methods using commodities for sales promotion are achieved by printing telephone numbers of publicizing companies on commodities for sales promotion to be publicized. However, if the commodities are used for a long time, the printing may be worn off, so the commodities are unable to function as sales promotion items.
- an object of the present invention is to provide an automatic dialing device for telephones, which is convenient to install, does not require an additional power supply, and prevents operating errors in dialing.
- the present invention provides an automatic dialing device installed as a separate body from a telephone, comprising a manipulation button for allowing a user to manipulate the device; a Dual Tone Multi Frequency (DTMF) storage and output unit for storing at least one specific telephone number and outputting a DTMF signal of a stored telephone number according to manipulation of the manipulation button; first and second connectors for transmitting the output DTMF signal and connecting with a trunk line and a telephone, respectively; and an interfacing unit for interfacing the DTMF storage and output unit with the trunk line and the telephone so that the DTMF signal is used only while the handset of the telephone is picked up to turn a hook switch of the telephone off.

- Fig. 2 is a circuit diagram of the automatic dialing device connected to a telephone according to the present invention
- Fig. 3 is a cross sectional view showing the installation of the automatic dialing device of this invention.
- an automatic dialing device 6 of the present invention is installed as a separate body from a telephone 2.
- an adhesion surface is formed on the bottom of a casing 6, and a manipulation button 10 is arranged for user manipulation on the top of the casing 60.
- the automatic dialing device 6 of the present invention comprises a Dual Tone Multi Frequency
- DTMF DTMF storage and output unit 610
- first and second connectors 660 and 670 first and second connectors 660 and 670
- an interfacing unit 620 The
- DTMF storage and output unit 610 stores specific telephone numbers and outputs DTMF signals of stored telephone numbers according to manipulation of the manipulation button 10.
- the first and second connectors 660 and 670 transmit the output DTMF signals, and are connected to a trunk line 4 and the telephone 2, respectively.
- the interfacing unit 620 interfaces the DTMF storage and output unit 610 with the trunk line 4 and the telephone 2 so that the DTMF signals are used only while the handset of the telephone is picked up, that is, the telephone 2 is off hook. In this case, one or more telephone numbers can be designated or stored.
- the DTMF storage and output unit 610 is constructed using a read only memory (ROM) in which prestored DTMF signals are not erased. Alternatively, the DTMF storage and output unit 610 can be constructed using a flash memory in which DTMF signals can be randomly restored during the use of the automatic dialing device 6. If the randomly restorable flash memory is used as the DTMF storage and output unit 610, it can be constructed such that a user is prevented from randomly restoring DTMF signals in the DTMF storage and output unit 610 by removing a storage button.
- ROM read only memory
- the DTMF storage and output unit 610 can be constructed using a flash memory in which DTMF signals can be randomly restored during the use of the automatic dialing device 6. If the randomly restorable flash memory is used as the DTMF storage and output unit 610, it can be constructed such that a user is prevented from randomly restoring DTMF signals in the DTMF storage and output unit 610 by removing a storage button.
- the manipulation button 10 is realized as a typical contact switch or a touch switch.
- the interfacing unit 620 constitutes a closed circuit together with the calling circuit unit 220 of the telephone 2 through the first and second connectors 660 and 670 when the handset 202 of the telephone 2 is picked up, that is, the hook switch 210 is turned off, thus allowing DTMF signals outputted from the DTMF storage and output unit 610 to be transmitted to the trunk line 4 through the calling circuit unit 220 of the telephone 2.
- the interfacing unit 620 is comprised of a transformer 622 for impedance matching and a tone signal switch 621.
- the tone signal switch 621 is turned on for a predetermined period of time on the basis of a control signal Sc provided by charge stored in a capacitor C as power is supplied after the manipulation button 10 is pressed and turned on.
- a typical analog switch integrated device can be used as the tone signal switch 621.
- Input and output terminals of the tone signal switch 621 are disposed between a signal ground and a primary coil TI of the impedance matching transformer 622. Accordingly, the flow of the signal outputted from the DTMF storage and output unit 610 can be controlled.
- both ends of a secondary coil T2 of the impedance matching transformer 622 constitute a closed circuit together with the calling circuit unit 220 of the telephone 2 with respect to the trunk line 4 when the hook switch 210 of the telephone 2 is turned off.
- the interfacing unit 620 constitutes a closed circuit together with calling circuit unit 220, so DTMF signals outputted from the DTMF storage and output unit 610 can be transmitted to the trunk line 4. These operations are described in detail with reference to Fig. 2.
- a DTMF signal outputted from the DTMF storage and output unit 610 is applied to the primary coil TI of the impedance matching transformer 622.
- the DTMF signal is induced in the secondary coil T2 , so a first tone signal of the DTMF signal is applied to a first terminal 661 of the first connector 660, and a second tone signal thereof is applied to the first terminal 671 of the second connector 670.
- the second tone signal of the DTMF signal which is applied to the first terminal 671 of the second connector 670, is transmitted to the calling circuit unit 220 of the telephone 2 through a first signal line 501 of the telephone cable connected to the plug 52. Then, the transmitted tone signal of the DTMF signal flows to the second terminal 662 of the first connector 660, which is connected to the second terminal 672 of the second connector 670, through the second signal line 502 of the telephone cable via a switching device TR which is turned on as the hook switch 210 is turned off.
- the second tone signal of the DTMF signal is transmitted to the trunk line 4 together with the first tone signal of the DTMF signal, which is outputted to the first terminal 661 of the first connector 660, thus allowing the DTMF signal stored in the DTMF storage and output unit 610 to be transmitted to the trunk line 4.
- reference numeral 230 in the telephone 2 is a control circuit unit to turn on the switch device TR by turning off the hook switch 210.
- the casing 60 of the automatic dialing device 6 of the present invention is adhered to a cover of the telephone 2 through a typical double-sided tape
- the automatic dialing device 6 of the present invention has a constant voltage unit 630 to drop the voltage of power flowing through the trunk line 4 and provide the dropped voltage as a constant voltage for self-power supply.
- a direct current (DC) voltage of approximately 45V is supplied to the trunk line 4 of telephone lines from a switchboard of a telephone office.
- the constant voltage unit 630 drops the DC voltage of 45N to DC 12 or 5V, suitable to the circuit driving of the DTMF storage and output unit 610.
- the automatic dialing device 6 of the present invention may include a typical battery to drive the DTMF storage and output unit 610 instead of the constant voltage unit 630, thus enabling the DTMF storage and output unit 610 to use the power of the battery.
- the present invention provides an automatic dialing device for telephones, which it is only adhered to a telephone and then plugs of trunk and telephone lines are respectively inserted into first and second connectors, thus completing its installation, and does not require supply of additional power, so it can be simply installed. Further, the present invention is advantageous in that it is not affected by surrounding noise, different from a conventional automatic dialing device, such that operating errors occurring in dialing can be entirely eliminated. Therefore, the automatic dialing device of this invention can be sufficiently provided as a commodity for sales promotion, which is highly reliable in its operation and is beneficial to advertisers.
