Abstract

PURPOSE:To automatically transfer necessary received picture data by ID- collating the data to a transfer destination set beforehand. CONSTITUTION:When an activating signal arrives from 8 transmitting side, a control part 9 sets a line switching part 2 at a position (c), closes the line, and connects a MODEM part 3. An ID collating part 5 collates the received ID number with the ID number set at a transfer designation ID memory part 6, when a collation result corresponds, the MODEM part 3 demodulates a picture signal, and accumulates it in a memory part 4 as the picture data. Next, after the passage of a constant time, the control part 9 sets the line switching part 2 at a position (b), closes the line, and connects a selecting signal sending part 7. The selecting signal sending part 7 inputs a transfer destination number set at a transfer destination memory part 8 beforehand, and sends the selecting signal to the line. Next, the control part 9 sets the line switching part 2 at a position (c), and transmits and receives a procedure signal.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a facsimile machine, and more particularly to a facsimile machine having an image signal storage memory.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION Conventionally, in this type of facsimile machine, as shown in FIG. The image signal transmitted from the other party is demodulated in the modem section 3, converted to image data, and stored in the memory section 4.

Next, when transferring the image data stored in the memory section 4 to another destination, the operator inputs the transfer destination number from the operation section 10, and the control section 9 selects the selection signal sending section 7 and the line switching section. 2 to send the transfer destination number to the telephone line.

Next, after the line is connected to the transfer destination, the image data stored in the memory section 4 is modulated by the modem section 3 and then transmitted as an image signal.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, with the above-mentioned conventional facsimile machine,
If the received facsimile image data is attempted to be transferred to another facsimile machine in the absence of the operator, there is a drawback that the data cannot be transferred automatically.

The present invention has been made in view of the existing circumstances,
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide a new facsimile apparatus which makes it possible to overcome the above-mentioned disadvantages inherent in the prior art.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to achieve the above objects, the facsimile apparatus according to the present invention comprises: an automatic receiving function section that automatically receives a call in response to an activation signal from a line; and a memory section that stores received image signals. ,
a transfer specification ID number storage unit that stores a transfer specification ID number; an ID verification unit that compares the ID number received from the other party with the transfer specification ID number to determine whether they match;
a transfer destination storage unit that stores a destination number of a destination to be transferred; a selection signal sending unit that sends a selection signal to a line according to the contents of the transfer destination storage unit; and a selection signal sending unit that detects the output of the ID verification unit and sends the selection signal. and a control section that operates the memory section and transmits the contents of the memory section to the transfer destination.

Embodiment Next, a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

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

Referring to FIG. 1, the automatic call reception function section 1 detects an activation signal input from the telephone line and outputs it to the control section 9. The control section 9 controls the line switching section 2 to set the line open state (position "aII") and the selection signal sending section 7 (position "b").
”) or modem unit 3 (position “Cn)”. The modem section 3 demodulates the image signal and modulates the image data stored in the memory section 4. The ID verification unit 5
The ID number sent from the other party is compared with the ID number preset in the transfer designated ID number storage section 6, and the result is output to the control section 9. Selection signal sending unit 7
manually enters the forwarding destination number preset in the forwarding destination storage section 8, and sends a selection signal to the line according to the contents.

Next, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to FIG. 3 showing the operational flow of the present invention.

Referring to FIGS. 1 and 3, when an activation signal arrives from the calling side, the automatic call receiving function section 1 detects the activation signal and notifies the control section 9 of the signal. The control section 9 sets the line switching section 2 to position "c7+" to close the line, and the facsimile machine to which the modem section 3 is connected transmits the procedure signal to the originating side and then receives the procedure signal and the signal from the originating side. The ID verification unit 5 receives the ID number and checks the received ID number against the ID number preset in the transfer designation ID storage unit 6.

The result is notified to the control unit 9. If the verification results do not match, the operation is terminated after normal reception operation as shown in FIG.

If the comparison result is a match, both signals are demodulated by the modem section 3 and stored in the memory section 4 as one image data, as shown in FIG. Upon receiving the termination signal, the control unit 9 switches the line switching unit 2
is set to position "a71" and the line is opened.

Next, after a certain period of time has elapsed, the control section 9 sets the 1 line switching section 2 to position "b", closes the line, and connects the selection signal sending section 7. The transfer destination number set in the storage section 8 is input, and a selection signal is sent to the line. Next, the control section 9 sets the line switching section 2 to position II C7' and transmits and receives the procedure signal.After that, when a response signal is received from the transfer destination, the control section 9 stores it in the memory section 4, The image data is sent to the line via the modem section 3 as an image signal.

After the transmission is completed, a termination signal is transmitted, and the control section 9 sets the line switching section 2 to position "a" to open the line.

The above operations complete the facsimile signal transfer.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION As described in detail, according to the present invention, necessary received image data can be automatically transferred to a preset destination by ID verification.
