July 3, 1934. L KARDORFF 1,965,123 I CALL FORWARDING- S YSTEM Filed Nov 13, 1931 Patented July 3, i934 UNITED- STATES CALL FORWARDING SYSTEM Lon'Kardorfi, Hamburg, Germany, assignor to The American Self-Selector Corp., a corporation of New York Application November 13, 1931, Serial No. 574,914 in Germany July 10, 1931 19 Claims. (01. 179-18) This invention relates to improvements in call forwarding systems, and has for an object the provision of means whereby subscribers who have two or more automatic, or self-connecting telephone lines, such as is described in co-pending application S. N. 550,338, iiled' July 13, 1931, may direct calls, arriving at their telephones, further on to other predetermined subscribers.
Heretofore, it has not been possible for telephone subscribers to hold conversations over their telephone connections other than by the regular fixed connections.
By means of the system described and claimed herein, a telephone subscriber is provided with a telephone system having further flexibility in that incoming messages may be automatically imparted to one or more predetermined telephones.
Referring to the drawing, Figure 1 shows one embodiment of the invention in which an automatic selecting device is shown in circuit with two oflice telephone lines, all of the instrumentalities being shown diagrammatically; and
Figure 2 shows another embodiment of the invention in which means is disclosed for automatically raising the switch-hook and thereby automatically connecting the telephone assocated' with said switch-hook to the calling telephone.
To show the utility of such a system, a typical example of its use is herein given.- Assuming that a physician has a system of this character with two stations, each having a line connected to the central oifice, the telephones being of the so-called dial type, one of the lines may be assumed to be the line I, Figure l and the other line II in Figure l, the apparatus and operation of which will presently bedescribed. Now assuming that the physician is invited to Mrs. Jones home to play bridge, the self selecting device shown in dotted lines in Figure 1 is set for Mrs. Jones telephone number by the physician before he leaves home. He goes to Mrs. Jones home and is playing bridge. Now a party calls the physician over line I in his ofiice. The calling current relay R closes the contacts 1' completing a local circuit including the battery B, the electromagneticrelease Wof the self selecting device and the magnet Z which inductively couples the lines I and IItogether through the coupling member U. The self selecting device upon being released calls Mrs. Jones telephone and when the latter is answered the party originally calling the physician talks to him through line I, the coupling device U, the line II and Mrs. Jones telephone, making it unnecessary for the physician to have someone in his oflice to answer the telephone and transfer the calls to him.
Two oflice telephone lines, (1271 and abII (Figure 1) are so arranged that they may be inductively connected by means of a transmitting coil U. A calling current relay R is connected across. the line abI with a condenser in series. The line abII is inter-connected with the interrupter con- 7 tacts nsa. and nsi of an automatic selecting'device, such as is described in the co-pendingAppln. Ser. No. 443,137, filed Apr. 10, 1930 and applica tion Ser. No. 550,338, filed July 13, 1931, above referred to, in which the mechanism is provided with an electromagnetic release for setting the mechanism into operation. 39
When the coil of the calling current relay R is energized by means of a call coming on the line abI, the contact 1 is closed and a circuit is set up which may be traced as follows: from the contact r via the source of electric current or battery B to the release magnet W of the selfselecting device to the magnet Z of the timeswitch and back to the contact 1'.
When this circuit isenergized, after the operation of the calling current relay R, the timeswitch leverh, attracted by the coil Z, is thereby pulled up in the direction shown by the arrow, thereby moving the contact arms 1 and 2 to the left, as shown by arrow, and the contact arms 3 and 4, to the right, as is also shown by an arrow, thereby connecting one winding of the transmitting coil to the lineabI and theother winding of the transmitting coil U to the line abII.
At the same time, the release magnet W, of the self-selecting device, releases the mechanism therein and allows this device to operate, and by means of the same the desired station is selected.
As an alternative, a relay or similar. device may be substituted in place of the time-switch having an electron winding Z and an armature h associated therewith, for connecting the windings oi the transmitting coil U to the lines abI and (dill. In this case the disconnecting of the transmitting coil from the lines may be efiected by means of a sensitive reset coil forming an integral part of this relay, or by means of a separate sensitive relay.
In the arrangement shown in Figure 2, two telephone stations, I and II, are shown, each having an ofiice line ab, which are adapted to be connected by means of suitable mechanism provided for raising the switch-hook of the telephone to be connected, and speaking connection is established and sound waves produced in the receiver and transmitted into the microphone of the other telephone.
The operating coil R of a calling current relay having a condenser in series therewith, is connected across the line ab of the telephone station I. When the line abI is energized the coil R is thereby also energized and the drop disc F is released and establishes contact with the contact f, thereby establishing a circuit which may be traced as follows: from the drop disc F to the contact 1, through the magnet coil Z of the timeswitch and via a source of current or battery 13 back to the drop disc F.
As current passes through the magnet coil Z the contact arm is pulled to the left in the direction of the arrow, closing the contact 2 and establishing a circuit which may be traced as follows: from the contact ,2 via the battery B to the solenoid coil H and back to the contact a. When the solenoid H is energized the switch-hook of telephone station II is raised. The armature of the solenoid Z is pulled up, thereby raising the switch-hook of telephone station II. The action resulting from the raising of the solenoid armature will be presently described.
At the same time that the contact 2 was closed by the action of the time-switch coil Z the hookswitch of telephone station I was raised.
A projection on the armature of the solenoid H, when the same is raised, closes the contacts h and establishes circuits which may be traced as follows: from the contact 71. to the microphone or transmitter 111. and to the receiver or telephone t and via thebattery I) back to the contact 71..
The transmitter m is placed adjacent to the receiver of the instrument II and the telephone or receiver t is placed adjacent to the transmitter of station I, likewise, the transmitter m is placed adjacent to the receiver of station I and the receiver t is placed adjacent to the transmitter of station II, thereby speech impulses coming over the line ab to station I are transferred to the line ab of station II.
In the system described in Figure 1, station I may be inductively coupled to any line or lines selected by means of the automatic selector.
In the modification shown in Figure 2, impulses over the line ab of station I are transferred tothe line ab of station 11, by means of microphones, or transmitters, and receivers co-operating with the receivers and transmitters of the stations I. and II, respectively.
