Abstract

PURPOSE:To send stored picture information of an original in the lump at a transmission time till the designated transmission time comes in the facsimile equipment having a memory transmission function, a time designation transmission function and a sequential multiple address communication function. CONSTITUTION:When a key on an operation panel 1A in which a transmission time and a transmission destination are set by a program in advance is depressed, a read section 5A stores picture information read out of an original a memory 4A till the transmission time comes and all the originals to be stored are sent to a designated destination when the transmission time comes.

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a facsimile machine, and more particularly to a facsimile machine having a memory transmission function, a time designation transmission function and a sequential broadcasting function.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in a facsimile apparatus of this type, information of a manuscript to be added before the designated time comes by time-specified transmission or time-specified sequential broadcasting in which information read from a manuscript is set once and accumulated. Could not be accumulated.

[0003]

In the above-mentioned conventional facsimile apparatus, when the information of the original document to be added is to be stored, the setting is canceled once, and the stored original document is re-included again.
The drawback is that the accumulation has to be redone.

[0004]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION A facsimile apparatus of the present invention is a facsimile apparatus having a memory transmission function, a time designation transmission function, and a sequential broadcast function, and has a time designation transmission function and a time designation sequential broadcast function. It has means for presetting one key, means for additionally storing image information read from a set document in the memory by the key operation, and means for sequentially transmitting the image information accumulated by the designated time. ..

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Next, the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of an embodiment of the present invention, FIG. 2 is a detailed view of the memory 4A of the present embodiment, and FIG. 3 is a block diagram for explaining the operation of the present embodiment. In FIG. 1, the operator sets the document A and presses the key set by the program on the operation panel 1A for the transmission time and the destination. The terminal control circuit 3A uses the request signal 1 from the operation panel 1A.
According to the contents of the key set by the program, a reading command is issued to the reading unit 5A. The document A read by the reading unit 5A passes through the terminal control circuit 3A and is stored in the memory 4A in the terminal control unit 2A.

Next, the operator sets an original B to be added, and presses a key on the operation panel 1A set by the transmission time and the program of the other party. As a result, the document is read by the reading unit 5A in the same manner as the document A, passes through the terminal control circuit 3A,
It is stored in the memory 4A.

In FIG. 2, the time when the document A is stored is A
M9: 30. Also, the time when the document B is stored is AM1.
If it is set to 1:30, the document A and the document B are accumulated corresponding to each time.

By doing so, the registration contents of the key set by the program as shown in FIG. 3 are set such that the destinations are branch offices A and B and the transmission time is PM 22:00. AM9: 3
The document A stored at 0 and the document B stored at 11:30 AM are stored in the memory 4A in the order of branch A and branch B in the memory 4A at PM 22:00 according to the registration contents of the key set by the program. And the document B can be sequentially transmitted in a broadcast manner.

[0010]

As described above, according to the present invention, by preset time-specified transmission and time-specified sequential broadcasting, the originals are sent by accumulating many times before the specified time comes. When a desired document is generated, it is possible to add and store the already-stored document information without canceling the already set document, so that there is an effect that extra man-hours such as setting again are not required.
