Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent a person who should not answer from responding by providing a controller which demands a telephone system for a password when a telephone system at visiting place during being out performs response to a doorphone terminal at the time of absence. SOLUTION: When a control circuit 17 receives a signal from a doorphone terminal, the circuit 17 decides that a connection switching key 150 is set to a transferring telephone system 6 when the key 150 is not designated to either a doorphone response device 3 side nor an automatic answering and recording device 4 side. The telephone number of the system 6 is dialed and when there is no response even when a prescribed time passes, automatic answering and recording is performed. When there is a response from the system 6, the controller 17 sends a password number message to the system 6 when there is a password and after confirmation, switches a switching means 14 to a communication line connecting part 13. When there is no password, the controller 17 switches the means 14 to the part 13 and connects it.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an intercom call transfer device of an intercom system in which a response from an intercom terminal can be made by a transfer destination telephone device.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, a door phone call transfer device (for example, Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. Hei 8 (1996)) which enables a response from an intercom terminal when not present to be transferred to a telephone device on the go.
No. 139818) has been considered. By using this device, not only can it be possible to talk with the visitor using a mobile phone device or the like even when going out, but also it is possible to pretend to be at home and to prevent burglary.

[0003]

However, when the telephone device of the transfer destination is not dedicated to the individual, such as when the visit destination is designated as the transfer destination of the intercom, the person who should not respond answers the telephone device. there is a possibility.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The intercom call transfer device of the present invention has been made in view of the above point. When a response from an intercom terminal is made at a transfer destination telephone device, a request for a password is made to the telephone device. A control circuit is provided.

[0005] Further, there is provided a setting means for determining whether or not to request a password, and a control circuit for requesting a password to the telephone apparatus based on the setting means when a response from the intercom terminal is made at the transfer destination telephone apparatus. .

[0006]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a main part of the first embodiment. In FIG. 1, a solid line indicates the configuration of the intercom call transfer device (1) of the present invention, and a broken line indicates a device connected to the device of the present invention.

[0007] (10) is a door phone connection unit, which connects the door phone terminal (2). (11) is a response device connection unit, which connects the intercom response device (3) to which the resident responds. An answering machine recording connection unit (12) connects an answering machine (4) for recording a message from a door phone. (1
Reference numeral 3) denotes a communication line connection unit, which is connected to the transfer destination telephone device (6) via the communication network (5). Communication line connection (1
3) has functions of a normal telephone such as on-hook, off-hook, dial transmission, transmission / reception, 2-wire 4-wire conversion, and the like.

[0008] (14) is a switching means, which connects the other party to be connected to the door phone connection unit (10), the response device connection unit (11)
The connection is switched to the absence recording connection unit (12) or the communication line connection unit (13).

(15) is a setting means, which comprises a connection switching key (150) and a password key (151). The connection switching key (150) is a key for setting a connection destination of the switching means (14). The personal identification number key (151) is a key for setting whether to request a personal identification number when a response from the intercom terminal is received at the transfer destination.

A message generating circuit (16) outputs a voice message signal. A control circuit (17) controls each unit based on a program written in the ROM (18). A RAM (19) stores information necessary for the operation of the control circuit (17), for example, a telephone number of the transfer destination telephone device (6).

The operation of the present invention having the above configuration will be described. FIG.
5 is a flowchart showing a main operation of the control circuit (17). When the control circuit (17) detects that the visitor has pressed the chime button of the intercom terminal (not shown), the connection switching key (150) is designated to the intercom response device (3) (S1). ), And check if it is set on the answering machine (4) (S2).

If it is designated as the intercom answering device (3) (Y in S1), the switching means (14) is switched to the answering device connection section (11) (S3), and the intercom answering device (3) is used. Answering process (S4) Answering machine (4)
If specified on the side (Y in S2), the door phone terminal (2) says, "I'm going out now. If you hear a beep, please talk about your business "(S5). Then, the switching means (14) is switched to the absence recording connection part (12) (S6), and the message recording device (4) records the message from the intercom terminal (S7).

If the connection switching key (150) is not connected to either the door phone answering device (3) or the answering machine (4), the control circuit (17) returns to the destination telephone. It is determined that it is connected to the device (6). Then, a message "Please wait for a while" is sent to the intercom terminal (2) (S8), the telephone is made off-hook, and the telephone number of the transfer destination telephone device (6) is dialed (S8).
9).

[0014] The transfer destination telephone device (6) even after a predetermined time has elapsed.
When there is no response from (S10, N of S11, S12
(Y), the user goes on-hook (S13), and the process goes to step S5 to record an absence message.

When there is a response from the transfer destination telephone device (6) (Y in S11), a message saying "doorphone transfer" is sent to the transfer destination telephone device (6) (S14). Then, it is checked whether or not the password number key (151) is set to "with password" (S15). If the password is not set (N in S15), the switching unit (14) is switched to the communication line connection unit (13) (S18), and the transfer to the transfer destination telephone device (6) is performed. A call can be made with the telephone device (6) (S19).

If the password is set (S15)
(Y), a message "Please input your password" is sent to the transfer destination telephone device (6) (S16), and the input of the password is processed (S17). And step S
18, and proceed to S19.

As described above, according to the present invention, when a response from the intercom terminal is made in the transfer destination telephone device, it is possible to select whether or not to request a password. When the transfer destination telephone device is a dedicated telephone device of the owner of the door phone system, such as a mobile telephone device, setting “no secret” to give the visitor a waiting time for entering the personal identification number. Absent.

On the other hand, if the transfer destination telephone device is not a dedicated telephone device of the door phone system owner, such as a telephone device on a business trip, by setting "with password", a person who should not respond can make a call. It is possible to prevent the device from responding.

[0019]

According to the present invention, when a response from the intercom terminal is made at the transfer destination telephone device, it is possible to prevent a person who should not respond by inputting the personal identification number from responding to the telephone device.

Further, it is possible to omit the input of the personal identification number, and in the case of a dedicated telephone device or the like, the time for inputting the personal identification number can be saved.
