Abstract

A call signal generating device, whose pair of output terminals is connected to a telephone set, includes a rectifier rectifying an inputted high frequency signal and maintaining an output polarity in one of two polarities; and a polarity reverser generating a call signal by periodically reversing the output polarity of the rectifier and supplying it to the telephone set via the pair of output terminals.

Claims (18)

1. A call signal generating device whose pair of output terminals is connected to a telephone set, the call signal generating device comprising:

a transformer increasing an inputted high frequency signal and outputting a high frequency voltage;

a rectifier rectifying an inputted high frequency signal voltage from the transformer and maintaining an output polarity in one of two polarities; and

a polarity reverser generating a call signal by periodically reversing the output polarity of the rectifier and supplying it to the telephone set via the pair of output terminals,

wherein the high frequency signal is a pulse signal which is pulse width modulated or pulse amplitude modulated according to a desired sinusoidal signal.

2. The call signal generating device according to claim 1 , wherein

the polarity reverser periodically reverses the output polarity of the rectifier by periodically changing a connection state between the pair of output terminals and a pair of output terminals of the rectifier corresponding to the pair of output terminals.

3. The call signal generating device according to claim 1 , wherein

the polarity reverser includes smoother smoothing an output of the rectifier whose polarity is periodically reversed and generating the call signal.

4. The call signal generating device according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a switch provided in front of the transformer and turning on and off a supply of the output of the rectifier to the polarity reverser.

5. The call signal generating device according to claim 1 , wherein

the rectifier is full-wave rectifier performing full-wave rectification.

6. A call signal generating device whose pair of output terminals is connected to a telephone set, the call signal generating device comprising:

transformation means for increasing an inputted high frequency signal and outputting a high frequency voltage;

rectification means for rectifying an inputted high frequency signal voltage from the transformation means and maintaining an output polarity in one of two polarities; and

polarity reversing means for generating a call signal by periodically reversing the output polarity of the rectification means and supplying it to the telephone set via the pair of output terminals,

wherein the high frequency signal is a pulse signal which is pulse width modulated or pulse amplitude modulated according to a desired sinusoidal signal.
