Description

PROGRAMMABLE IMPROVED

TELECOMMUNICATION INTERRUPTER, NAMED PERIO PHONE

The invention concerns an appliance to the during earlier adjusted periods passing or interrupting, wiping and like of ring signal s, tones, massages of tel ecommunication devices from the connecti on box of the telecomm unication network to phones with a fixed connecti on, answering devices, fax devices and like, in witch menti oned periods can be adj usted with an electric time switch machine.

In the daily praxis some people, managers, speciali st in all areas, doctors and like are during the whole day interrupted by incom ing massages fixed as mobile, faxes, e-mail and such like. Special the tel ephones are a heavy l oad for the mental stability of the person, who i s called. Thi s is often not good to protect by the receiver, and the result is, that thi s person doesn't do hi s daily work good, by witch a stress situati on can develop for the cal l ed receiver. In short, a number of call s and commun icati on massages must be prevented or just stored in the memory. From the inventor of thi s i nvention is also invented a similar appliance known described as telephonic time switch mechanism "Danobel " and i s in The Netherl ands demanded patent and given patent under n umber 1 01 9 525 , at

07-02-2002 , from inventor SIEMELINK, Evert, Frederik^', Diephuisstraat 23a, 9714 GT GRONINGEN.

It concerns an electronic system from a telephone, a time switch mechanism and a energy supply element.

For above mentioned patent is a search to the new posion of the international type executed by the B ureau van de Industiele Ei gendom, on witch the menti oned patent literature i s described farther.

From above described Dutch patent is also a PCT-demand presented on 24-7-2002, on witch the number PCT/NL02/00499 i s given. A number of documents become known from the search of the new position of the patent, witch can be of interest and have possibility of damage concerning the new position of the above descripted Dutch patent-demand. As first patent from the state of the technique can be mentioned the German Gebrauchs uster nr. 295.05 997.4 of KRA ECKER in Berl i n. It concerns a connect direction of a Telecommuni cati on- Connect-Unit (TAE), it means a connection box with a programmable switchclock for the on- and off-switching of these on this box connected devices and that by means of the switch clock, on witch six to twelve switch units are programmable and on witch the electronic switch clock on well known way is programmable by a keyboard and shows the concerning time data by a display. It concerns here a connection box with some possibilities to interrupt or not interrupt si gnal s, call s and l ike to connected telecommunication devices such as telephones and for example faxes, and that works than for fixed previ ously programmed numbers durin g adjusted peri ods.

Farther is known a relevant American patent number 4 480 154 from KLE.E, Marice M, 262 Eucl id Ave, Fairfield, Connecticut 06430. In this American patent is described a device to automatic reduce or on a l ower l evel sounding of a telephone ring si gnal, witch with a 24- hour timer i s adj usted during fixed times, so that when the timer is adj usted one time on the daily period, the ring signal is in a certain way suppressed and that works also for the switching off of an alarm cl ock.

Farther is known a relevant American patent number 5 448 680 from BARSTOW. L. Ed from Calaramore, Oklahoma. It concerns hereby a accurate timed telephone switch device for a telephone or telecommunicati on device with cables connected with the telecommunication network. The mentioned device has a clock, witch can be adj usted to i nterrupt the telephone traffi c and the telecommunicati on traffic during in advance fixed periods over a day and over a week. It is therefore an on off switch system, on witch the periods are programmable adjustable.

Farther are mentioned from a search of the new position of the patent executed by PCT nr. NL1019525 at 23-07-2002 the stϋl fewer relevant patents, these are DE 9207008 U (1993-09-03) (EMMBRICH CHRISTOPH GmbH Co.); DE 29505998 U(KRAECKER AG)

(1995-06-01) and GB 23 I 3265A (NIPPON ELECTRIC CO) (1997-11-19). The known above appliances from various patents have drawbacks concerning the fact, that these are few selective concerning telephone numbers or fax numbers witch one always want to connect, more in particular, witch one on fixed periods on special periods wants to connect, interrupt or repress. The praxis demands a much more varied communication pattern, with returned information to the contact looking person.

The aim of the invention concerns to apply a so far improved telecommunication interrupter, witch have not the here above mentioned drawbacks and witch is in use more practical. For this is the appliance for programmable better interrupting of telecommunication in such a way farther, developed, that that mentioned device (1) can be loose connected serially placed with the connection box of the telecommunication network and a arbitrary receiving device, such as a fixed telephone, a fax and suchlike, and it has the form of box with not constant hight, witch covers a number of supplies, such as a programmable time mechanism for the adjusting of the mentioned periods of for example ring signals and fax brakes and is provided of an electric card or a central processor unit (CPU) for the selecting of fixed numbers, the adaptation, such as for example the storage or the wiping of at least a group of telecommunication numbers, a socket for the desired voltage of the applied electronics, connection points for the connection of the mentioned element with the form of a box, in witch the measures of the mentioned element of the appliance (1) LxBxH are, in witch on one side of the box i s placed a di spl ay (4) and a programming button (3) to fix the desired adj ustments concerning the communication signal s, in witch on one side of the element with form of a box a lightning appliance such as a LED can be placed, in witch the programming is to follow user friendly on the display (4), i n witch the mentioned programming button (3 ) i s constructed as a rotation- and press-button to look after the import of data, that is mainly based on the schedule of figure 8, in witch the effect of the ring si gnal or the receiving of a fax i f desi red and such as can be program med by the mentioned time switch mechanism, in the central processing unit CPU (8) by the by the user, who adds periods of fixed telephone numbers, in witch the programming of the so called time switch mechani sm can be so that some fixed telephone numbers can come in during a by the receiver to appoint period, witch period can be i mported by number and can di ffer from the period of the ring brakes, sti l l can cause a ring signal , and that direct for that number it i s possibl e to read till witch moment the adj usted period endures, i n witch the telecommunication numbers, witch have looked for contact during the communication brakes, can be read on the di splay (4), in witch the li ghtning element produced a s a LED (5) can light up when during a ring- or communi cation break someone looks for contact, in witch the mentioned CPU (8) of the time switch mechanism can send a massage back to the telephone, fax on answering machine and such as concerni ng the durance of the ri ng or communication period of the n ow contact seeking communication numbers .

The advantage is a very flexible programmable improved telecommunication interrupter, called Perio Phone, witch in almost every cases will fit the demands o f the professional user of the tel ecommunicati on network. The appliance is correspondi ng the invention further devel oped in such a way, that with the mentioned programmable time swi tch mechanism the mentioned ring- or communication signal can be i nterrupted when the receiving person leaves the comm uni cation place, or during the presence of the receiving person the ring- or communication signal can be replaced off and on by a light signal of a lightning device, such as a LED (5) on a arbitrary to fix way.

The appliance is corresponding the invention further developed in such a way, that the mentioned measures LxHxB of the appliance (1) can be for example 200 x 60 x 35 mm (=Hmax).
