るものである。The present invention relates to a device having a so-called magnetic card type telephone function, and particularly to a device in which a plurality of card users use their own card in which only an identification code is stored. Further, the present invention relates to a magnetic card type communication terminal device capable of making a so-called cashless telephone call up to a designated frequency assigned to each person.
従来の磁気カード公衆電話機では、利用者があらかじ
め購入した回数券方式の磁気カードによりダイヤル通話
が可能であり、磁気カードに記憶された通話度数は、一
定度数に達した後は使用を不能としている。In a conventional magnetic card public telephone, a user can make a dial call using a coupon ticket magnetic card purchased in advance by a user, and the call frequency stored in the magnetic card cannot be used after reaching a certain frequency. .
この方式は従来の硬貨方式に較べ大幅な利便性向上を
もたらしている。This system has greatly improved the convenience compared to the conventional coin system.

高価となっている。By the way, cashless calls using cards do not require the insertion of coins, so they are suitable for long-distance calls, etc., where call charges are expensive.However, a magnetic card in which predetermined call charge value information is stored in advance is used. Card information is read by a card reader, and if there is call charge value information, the call is started, and when the call ends, predetermined charge information etc. is written on the card by a writer, etc.
A device for reading, writing, punching the remaining frequency on the card, etc. is required, and the size of the telephone becomes large.
It has become expensive.
そこで、本発明は識別コードのみの照合により通話を

する。Therefore, the present invention enables a telephone call by checking only the identification code. Even when the card itself is unusable due to burnout or the like, it is possible to make a telephone call by reissuing the card for the number of times corresponding to the card. It is an object of the present invention to provide a device that makes it possible to eliminate the possibility that a lost card will be used by another person on a general telephone even if the card is lost, thereby saving labor in charge collection work.
