HOUSEHOLD MESSAGE DEVICE

PURPOSE:To prevent a sound recording message from being erased erroneously, by executing a judgement of sound recording or reproduction by an output signal from a voice recording/reproducing key and an output signal from a lamp lighting control part, and outputting a control signal to a voice sound recording/reproducing part. CONSTITUTION:When a name of the other party to be messaged is selected from a message destination display part 4, and a voice recording/reproducing key 5 placed on its left side is depressed, a voice recording display lamp 6 is lighted through a lamp lighting control part 12 by its output signal, and simultaneously, by an output from the lamp lighting control part 12, a voice recording/reproducing deciding part 13 outputs a voice recording deciding output to a voice recording/reproducing part 7. When a user confirms lighting and speaks to a microphone 2, an inputted voice signal is recorded in the voice recording/reproducing part 7, and when voice recording is ended, the voice recording display lamp 6 changes to a flickering state. In the case of reproduction, when a person to be messaged recognizes a fact that there is a message to himself by flickering of the voice recording display lamp 6, and depressed the voice recording/reproducing key 5, a voice is outputted from a loudspeaker 3, and the voice recording display lamp changes from a flickering state to a turn-off state.
