Patent number: 5081672Abstract: An automatic telephone answering machine which is capable of selecting a new outgoing message or an old outgoing message. If a new OGM is unsatisfactory, the operator may retain an old OGM and discard the new OGM. Both a semiconductor memory and a magnetic tape are utilized in switching the OGM's from one to the other. The OGM stored in the semiconductor memory is automatically checked and read out at least once at an end of storage of the OGM in the semiconductor memory, and thereafter the OGM is automatically read out again and transferred to and recorded in an area of a magnetic tape.Type: GrantFiled: May 2, 1990Date of Patent: January 14, 1992Assignee: Sony CorporationInventors: Satoshi Mita, Akira Matsubara, Hiroshi Nishimura, Yoshitomo Nakano

Patent number: 4421954Abstract: An automatic telephone answering device employs a single magnetic tape and a single driving mechanism for driving the magnetic tape. Whenever an incoming call is received, a control circuit of the device sets the driving mechanism into a playback mode to play to the calling party an outgoing message recorded at the beginning of a track on the single magnetic tape. Then, if there have been no previously recorded incoming messages, the device records the calling party's incoming message on the same track after detecting the end of the recorded outgoing message. However, if any incoming messages have been recorded previously on the same track of the single magnetic tape, the tape is advanced at high speed to a point beyond the last of these previously recorded incoming messages. Then, the present incoming message is recorded. As soon as the incoming call is terminated and the recording of the incoming message is ended, the device is set into a rewind mode.Type: GrantFiled: May 7, 1981Date of Patent: December 20, 1983Assignee: Sony CorporationInventors: Satoshi Mita, Kouichi Tanaka, Yoshitomo Nakano, Harumi Saita, Akira Nakayama
