Abstract

PURPOSE:To respond to both telephone and facsimile communication as operating the automatic reception function of facsimile by outputting a line signal only for a time set at a facsimile communication part by a control signal detecting a call signal from a telephone line to a loud-speaker part, and monitoring it by a speaker. CONSTITUTION:When the call signal arrives, a ringer detecting part 7 detects incoming call, and a control part 6 switches a line switch 5 to the facsimile communication part 3, and a facsimile communication operation is started, then, simultaneously, the line signal 102 is amplified by the loud-speaker part 2, and outputted from the speaker. The output of the line signal 102 is performed until a facsimile procedure signal on a transmission side is received within a time set in the facsimile communication part 3. At this time, when speech voice is listened from the loud-speaker part 2, a facsimile reception operation is interrupted by taking the handset of a telephone set 1 by a server and switching the telephone line 101 to the telephone set 1 by the switching operation of an operating part 4 via the line switch 5, then, speech can be performed. Thereby, an operation can be simplified.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a facsimile device, and more particularly to a facsimile device that uses a telephone line in common for telephone and facsimile communications.

[Conventional technology]

In a conventional facsimile device, when a telephone line is used for telephone or facsimile communication, a changeover switch provided on the device is used.

When the changeover switch is set to automatic facsimile reception, facsimile reception begins immediately upon detection of a ringing signal.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

When the above-mentioned conventional facsimile machine is set to automatic reception, it starts receiving facsimile as soon as it detects a ringing signal, so when the telephone line is shared between telephone and facsimile communication, and when the operator is near the machine, The automatic reception function must be canceled in preparation for an incoming call, and when the operator leaves the device, the automatic reception function must be activated for facsimile communication, which has the drawback of being cumbersome to operate.

[Means for solving problems]

The facsimile apparatus of the present invention includes a linker detecting section that detects a calling signal from a telephone line and outputs a control signal, a line switching device that sets the telephone line to a hook-off state according to the control signal, and a linker detecting section that detects a calling signal from a telephone line and outputs a control signal; It has a facsimile communication section that outputs signals from the line to the amplification section for a predetermined period of time.

〔Example〕

Next, the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block diagram of one embodiment of the present invention.

Detects a calling signal from the telephone line 101 and generates a control signal 103
a ringer detection section 7 that outputs a signal, and a line switching device 5 that puts the telephone line 101 into a hook-off state using a control signal 103'.
and a facsimile communication section 3 which outputs the signal 101' from the telephone line 101 as a line signal 10.2 to the loudspeaker section 2 for a predetermined period of time in response to a control signal 103'.

Next, the operation will be explained.

The line switch 5 connects the telephone line 101 to the telephone 1 or the facsimile communication section 3, and is connected to the telephone 1 during standby. When a ringing signal arrives, the ringer detection unit 7 detects the incoming call, the control unit 6 switches the line switch 5 to the facsimile communication unit 3 and starts facsimile communication, and at the same time amplifies the line signal 102 from the loudspeaker unit 2. The speaker will appear on the speaker.

The line signal 102 is output until the facsimile procedure signal from the transmitting side is received within the time set in the facsimile communication section 3. At this time, if the call voice is heard from the loudspeaker 2, the operator picks up the receiver of the telephone 1 and
The telephone line 101 is connected to the telephone line 101 via the line switching device 5 by operating the switch.
By switching the terminal to telephone 1, the facsimile reception operation is interrupted and a telephone conversation can be made.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, the present invention enables automatic reception of facsimiles by outputting a line signal to the loudspeaker section for a time set in the facsimile communication section using a control signal that detects a ringing signal from a telephone line and monitoring it with a speaker. It can support both telephone and facsimile communication while the functions are still operating, and has the effect of simplifying operations for the operator.
