Abstract

PURPOSE:To simplify the arrangement of a received document and a report by sorting recording paper sheets for the received document and the report and discharging them to respective container shelves. CONSTITUTION:A recording circuit 1 outputs a recording signal of picture information 11 of a received document and a report representing the result of communication to a recording device 2. The recording device 2 uses the recording signal to print it out on recording paper 3 and a feed roller 4 discharges the recording paper 3 after printing out. An identification circuit 5 identifies whether picture information during print by the recording device 2 is the received document or the report and gives a command to a drive section 6. The drive section 6 drives a sorting mechanism 7 to feed the recording paper 2 to a container shelf 8a when the recording paper 3 discharged from the feed roller 4 is the received document and to feed the recording paper 3 to a container shelf 8b when the recording paper 3 is the report by driving the sorting mechanism 7 in a direction of the arrow A.

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 ejects recording paper on which received documents are recorded and recording paper on which reports such as transmission/reception result information are recorded. .

[Conventional technology]

FIG. 2 is a side view of an example of a conventional facsimile device.

The recording unit 10 includes a recording paper 13 on which image information 11 from a plurality of transmitting sides has been received and recorded, and information on the results of transmission and reception, for example, a third
The recording paper 13 on which the transmission report shown in the figure is recorded is placed on the roller 1.
2 and stacked in order on the storage shelf 14. Particularly when using automatic reception, a large number of recording papers 13 remain in the storage shelf.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

The above-mentioned conventional facsimile machine is configured to record received documents and reports of the results of sending and receiving on recording paper and output them to the same storage shelf, so if it is used in a place where sending and receiving is frequent. This method has the disadvantage that the received documents and report sheets are mixed together, making it difficult to sort them.

[Means to solve the problem]

The facsimile apparatus of the present invention includes a recording means for printing image information of a received document and a report indicating communication results on recording paper;
The apparatus includes a sorting means for discharging the recording paper to a plurality of storage shelves, and an identification means for identifying whether the recording paper to be discharged is a received document or a report and instructing the sorting means.

〔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.

The recording circuit 1 outputs to the recording mechanism 2 a recording signal of image information 11 of a received document and a report indicating the communication result. The recording mechanism 2 prints on the recording paper 3 according to the recording signal and sends it to the feed roller 4.
The printed recording paper 3 is ejected.

The identification circuit 5 identifies whether the image information being printed by the recording mechanism 2 is a received document or a report, and instructs the drive unit 6 to do so.

The drive unit 6 drives the sorting machine fI7 and feeds the feed roller 4.
When the recording paper 3 ejected from the storage shelf 8a is a received document,
When the recording paper 3 has a report printed on it, the sorting mechanism 7 is driven in the direction of arrow A and the recording paper 3 is delivered to the storage shelf 8b.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, the present invention separates received documents and report paper and discharges them to respective storage shelves.
This has the effect of making it easier to organize received documents and reports.
