BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION A receipt management apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is an overall configuration diagram of a receipt management device according to a first embodiment of the present invention.

In FIG. 1, the main controller 1 has the function of a personal computer and is program-controlled. The voice recognition unit 2 is composed of a voice recognition device and recognizes a voice input from a public line such as a telephone line and a voice input from a handset unit 3 such as a handset. When the present invention is carried out, the present invention is not limited to a public line such as a telephone line and can be used for wireless communication as well as communication for wireless stations for a plurality of people. The print output unit 4 prints out the facsimile information received from the caller side, which is stored in the information storage unit 8, as a hard copy in response to an output request from a specific receiver, and stores the information in the information storage unit 8. The voice information arriving from the calling side is output from the handset unit 3 such as a handset, and one or two of them constitute the information output unit of the present embodiment. Correspondent registration unit 5 that registers a specific recipient in advance on the receiving side
Is a caller's voice that pre-registers himself or herself such as "・ ・ is" and "・ ・ san-san wishes", which is generally used. The caller and the receiver are set in, and usually when used as an answering machine or an answering machine, when the recipient can be distinguished by the surname, the surname of the normal calling is registered. Due to the nature of the registrant, the self-introduction and the address to whom it is addressed are determined by communication with the recipient. If you cannot distinguish the family name on your answering machine at home, register your name,
Duplicated registration of pronouns such as "mother", "master", "wife" etc. However, the same code is assigned to the name of a specific father such as "father" or "master". Of course,
The same code is assigned to the names of specific mothers such as "mother" and "wife". Furthermore, within the company, the same code is assigned to "President", "Senior Managing Director", etc. to the same effect. It is also possible to use the call ID. This call ID is used to register the telephone number of the caller as a destination with which a specific recipient contacts, and the telephone number of the caller is sent as the call ID immediately after connecting the telephone line. It can be used to identify the calling party.

The correspondent registration unit 5, which registers a specific recipient on the receiving side in advance, may determine a predetermined character by the OCR function when it is premised on automatic facsimile transmission and reception. In personal computer communication and word processing communication, a specific code can also be used as a criterion.

The recipient-specific information editing unit 6 edits the received information for each registrant set by the correspondent registration unit 5, and a code attached to each registrant is changed from the same code. It edits or edits the contents of the area determined for each registrant. Normally, it is edited and output when printing a code attached to each registrant.
The message request unit 7 makes a message request to the calling party side to specify the recipient of the receiving side. For example, in the case of an answering machine, "who should the message be sent?",
It stores voice information such as "I cannot receive communications from you". Also, when it is difficult to identify the recipient of the receiving side, voice information such as "Please repeat again", voice once When it was possible to identify, as a result of the sender responding to the repeated request, "Thank you" as a thank you response when voice recognition was possible, and "Please give me a message when recording a message. Please store the voice information such as "Please enter the specified code" to request the code input when the stored information is difficult to identify by voice and cannot be output by voice input. ing. When it is determined that the receiver is registered in the correspondent registration unit 5, the information storage unit 8 that stores the information received from the caller side in a predetermined area is a memory that stores a message from the transmission side. Store the message with a code for each registrant. Negative caller registration section 9
Is the result of the administrator confirming the information coming from the caller side,
A caller and / or call ID identified as unsuitable for communication is registered and used to deny its reception. The communication control unit 10 is a modem that performs signal conversion with a public communication line. The display 11 is composed of a liquid crystal or a CRT or the like, and is for observing the received incoming information such as a facsimile coming from the caller side stored in the information storage unit 8. In the case of voice, the handset unit 3 such as handset
You will be asked to confirm the content of the information that has arrived.

FIG. 2 is a flow chart of the "reception mode" program-controlled by the main control unit according to the receipt management apparatus of the first embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 3 shows the receipt management apparatus of the first embodiment. FIG. 4 is a flow chart of the "voice recognition routine" program-controlled by the main control unit, and FIG. 4 is a flow chart of the "output mode" program-controlled by the main control unit of the receipt management apparatus of the first embodiment. Note that these programs are called during execution of a main program (not shown).

First, unless a predetermined reception state can be confirmed in step S1, a request to be displayed on the display 11 by a corresponding key operation and / or a handset unit 3 such as a handset, for the administrator to check in step S9. If it is determined that a voice output request has been input from the device, and if any of these requests has been input by a key operation, the routine is a process of displaying the incoming information on the display 11 in step S14. If it is not determined in step S9 that the request has been input by key operation,
Exit this routine.

When the reception is confirmed in step S1, it is determined in step S2 whether the call ID has arrived from the caller side, and when it is determined that the call ID has arrived from the caller side, in step S3. Whether or not the call ID is a registrant denying the reception is determined based on the negative caller registration unit 9, and when it is determined in step S3 that the call ID is a registrant denying the reception, a step is performed. In S4, send a message to the caller to deny the reception such as "I cannot receive communication from you", and then disconnect the line,
Exit this routine.

That is, in steps S1 to S4,
In the case of a caller registered in the negative caller registration unit 9, a message indicating that the call cannot be received is sent to the caller to disconnect the line.

When it is determined in step S3 that the call ID is not a registrant who denies reception, in step S5 it is determined whether the call ID is a registrant who permits reception.
When it is determined that the call ID is the registrant who has permitted the reception, the code corresponding to the registrant is stored in the information storage unit 8 in step S6, and subsequently, the message or the facsimile coming from the caller side is stored in step S7. The information is stored in the information storage unit 8. That is, the code corresponding to the registrant is associated with the message or facsimile information coming from the caller side and stored in the information storage unit 8. At this time, the facsimile information coming from the caller side is stored as a voice together with the communication signal in the information storage section 8 as a message. When there is no message or facsimile information coming from the caller side in step S8, the storage in the information storage unit 8 is completed.

In the case of the incoming information from the caller registered by the receiver, or the incoming information from the caller permitted by the manager, the steps S1 to S3 and S5 to S8 The arrival information is stored in the storage unit 8. However, although not shown in the present embodiment, it is possible to directly output without storing in the information storage unit 8.

When it is determined in step S2 that the call ID has not arrived from the caller side, the "voice identification routine" is called and executed in step S10.

In step S101, the caller name and the destination name such as "who are you" and "who do you want to connect to" are asked by the synthesized voice stored in the message request unit 7. In step S102, the caller side is "..." and "President, please", "... wish you", "... wish you", "...・ It is addressed to Mr. In step S103, the voice recognition unit 2 is used to determine whether or not the voice of this reply can be identified. When the voice cannot be identified, it is determined in step S104 whether or not the inquiry is repeated three times or more, and the inquiry is not repeated three or more times. When, that is, 3 as the limit that the calling party is not rude
The allowable range is up to the number of times, and when not asked more than three times, in step S105, the synthetic voice stored in the message request unit 7 replies "Please repeat again", and the routine from step S102 to step S105 is performed. Repeat up to 3 times.

When it is determined in step S103 that the voice can be identified, or when it is determined in step S104 that the voice can be identified as a result of repeated inquiries up to three times, the other party is notified that the voice is identified. Step S1
At 06, we will send back "Thank you" with the meaning of thank you for the response. When it is determined in step S103 that the voice identification is possible, and when the thank-you reply is returned in step S106, or when it is determined that the inquiries are repeated three times or more in step S104, whether or not there is a registrant whose voice identification is performed in step S107. If there is no voice-registered registrant, the process proceeds to step S11. If there is a voice-identified registrant, the process proceeds to step S6.

This "voice identification routine" identifies the caller by voice recognition when it is determined that the call ID has not arrived from the caller side.

When the caller is voice-identified but the registrant does not exist, it is determined in step S11 whether or not it has been checked by the administrator. When it is determined that the check has not been made, arrival information is displayed in step S12. In order to be temporarily stored in the information storage unit 8 and checked by the administrator in step S13, a request to display on the display 11 by a corresponding key operation and / or a request to output a voice from the handset unit 3 such as a handset. It is judged whether it is input. When it is determined that the display request is input by the key operation, the arrival information is displayed on the display 11 in step S14, and the predetermined recipient is permitted to receive the arrival information displayed on the display 11 in step S15. Enter whether to disallow it. When the reception information displayed on the display 11 is entered or not received, it is determined in step S11 that the administrator has checked the information, and in step S16, information that can be received by a specific recipient is displayed. If determined, it is step S16.
Is determined in step S6 to step S8.

In the routines of steps S11 to S15, when the caller is not a registered person, the administrator confirms the information coming from the caller so that the current arrival information is received. It is to determine whether to permit or to permit subsequent communication. Normally, when the administrator is not in a state where he / she can always manage, it is preferable to temporarily store the incoming information in the information storage unit 8 in this way.

If it is not determined in step S16 that the information can be received by a specific recipient, that is, it is determined that it is better for the administrator not to pass the incoming information to the specific recipient. At this time, the call ID or caller name that arrived in step S17 is registered, and the memory N prepared for each call ID or caller name is incremented by "1". The arrival information temporarily stored in the information storage unit 8 is discarded in step S18, and it is determined in step S19 whether the value of the memory N prepared for each call ID or caller name is a predetermined number M or more as a threshold value. If the value of the memory N is not equal to or more than the predetermined number M, this routine is exited. When it is determined in step S19 that the value of the memory N prepared for each call ID or caller name is equal to or greater than the predetermined number of times M as a threshold value, the call ID or call corresponding to the negative caller registration unit 9 is determined in step S20. Register your name and leave this routine.

In the routine of steps S16 to S20, when it is determined that the value of the memory N prepared for each call ID or caller name is the predetermined number M or more,
Negative caller registration section 9 registers the corresponding call ID or caller name, and further notifies the caller of refusal of reception, if necessary, and saves the time and effort of the subsequent administrator confirmation. It is omitted.

Next, the "output mode" routine will be described.

The "output mode" routine is entered by lifting the handset which is the handset unit 3 or operating a special key.

In step S31, the receiver, that is, the registrant (self) name registered in the correspondent registration unit 5 in the handset unit 3 is input. In step S32, the voice recognition unit 2 is used to determine whether the voice can be identified. When the voice cannot be identified, in step S33, it is determined whether the inquiry is repeated three times or more.
When not asking three or more times, that is, the number of repetitions is limited to three times without affecting the emotion of the recipient,
When not asking three or more times, in step S34, a reply "please repeat again" is made by the synthesized voice stored in the message requesting unit 7, and the routine from step S31 to step S34 is repeated up to three times. .

When it is determined in step S32 that voice recognition is possible, or when it is determined in step S33 that repeated inquiries have been made up to three times, it is determined in step S35 whether or not the registrant whose voice is identified exists. However, those registered with pronouns such as "father", "mother", "master", and "wife" are code-identified as the same person by inputting the registrant (self) name. If there is a registrant whose voice is identified, the received information is selected from the code of the corresponding registrant in step S36, and the information with the code of the corresponding registrant stored in the information storage unit 8 is selected in step S36. Edited, and when the message is stored from the caller side in step S37, the handset unit 3
It is output as a voice through the handset which is. When the facsimile information is stored as voice in the information storage unit 8 together with the communication signal, it is output via the print output unit 4. This is continued until it is determined in step S38 that there is no more edited information for each recipient.

When it is determined in step S35 that there is no registrant whose voice is identified, in step S39, "Please enter the designated code", just in case, the registrant cannot be identified by voice input. Alternatively, in order to distinguish it from an unrelated third party, a predetermined code input assigned to the registrant is required. When a code is input by key input in step S40, it is determined in step S41. When it is not the predetermined code assigned to the registrant, this routine is exited. When it is determined in step S41 that the predetermined code assigned to the registrant has been input, the information of the specific code is edited by the recipient-specific information editing unit 6 in step S36, and the message from the caller side is stored in step S37. If it is, it outputs it as voice through the handset which is the handset unit 3. When the facsimile information is written as voice in the information storage unit 8 together with the communication signal, it is output via the print output unit 4. This is continued until it is determined in step S38 that there is no more edited information for each recipient. Note that, in particular, information stored in the information storage unit 8 where message or facsimile information arrived from the caller side is not addressed to a specific registrant is also output with a specific key or code.

This "output mode" routine is for output by the confidential function of the receiver. However, in the case of implementing the present invention, the output may be performed by a key operation or an operation of the handset unit 3.

By the way, although the present embodiment has been described on the premise that the call ID on the caller side and the voice recognition are used at the same time, when implementing the present invention, either one of them is adopted. May be.

As described above, the reception management apparatus according to the present embodiment stores the signal from the caller side and the communication party registration section 5 in which the call ID of the specific caller side is registered in advance on the receiving side. When received, the receiving party determination section comprising step S5 of the main control section 1 for determining whether the call ID on the calling party side is registered in the correspondent registration section 5, and the recipient are registered in the correspondent registration section 5. If it is determined that the arrival information is not present, the content of the arrival information from the caller side is determined, and it is determined whether or not the particular recipient receives the arrival information. Information including steps S11 to S15 of the main control unit 1. A management unit, an information storage unit 8 that stores incoming information from the caller side permitted by the information management unit in a predetermined area, and information that has arrived from the caller side and stored in the information storage unit 8 is specified. Handset unit 3 that is output according to the output request from the registrant of And an information output unit including the print output unit 4 and the information management unit specify a caller whose incoming information cannot be received, and deny it when the number of receptions from the caller reaches a specified number. It is provided with a caller reception denial unit including steps S11 to S20 of the main control unit 1 based on the negative caller registration unit 9 which denies the reception only by the caller judgment after the registration in the registration unit 9. It is a thing.

Further, when the calling side calls the receiving side, the calling party designates a specific recipient of the receiving side, and the designated recipient is designated as the recipient previously designated by the receiving side. When not registered, the information received from the caller side is confirmed to allow the reception of a specific recipient, and when the number of receptions from a caller who cannot accept the reception reaches the specified number, the caller The reception management method may be such that the reception is denied only by the judgment.

Therefore, no matter what telephone call, document, data, etc. is sent from the caller, the content is confirmed by the information management unit of steps S11 to S15 of the main control unit 1, and the unnecessary document is displayed on the display 11. It can be discarded at the stage indicated by and can be removed without hard-copying documents that are harmful or unnecessary to the recipient. In particular, a DM or the like sent by facsimile can be dealt with without making a hard copy, and no waste of resources occurs. Also, when the number of calls from the caller reaches a certain number,
After that, since the reception is denied only by the caller's judgment, it is possible to save the administrator the trouble of checking.
At this time, by sending a message to the caller side indicating that the call cannot be received, it can be understood that the call is not received by the caller and is not received artificially.

Further, as in the present embodiment, in the case where the permission of the communication is judged by the call ID on the calling party side, it is possible to function by registering the call ID on the receiving side in advance. , The cost of the device is reduced, and the reliability is improved.

In this embodiment, the caller side call ID
The call ID can be determined by a predetermined voice recognition technique when implementing the present invention.

That is, when a signal from the caller side is received and a communication party registration unit 5 in which a specific caller is registered on the receiving side in advance, a message request for specifying the recipient on the receiving side is issued.

When the number of receptions from the caller reaches a specific number, it is registered in the negative caller registration unit 9, and further, if necessary, the caller is notified that the reception is rejected, and thereafter, the caller is judged. Deny the reception only with Negative Further, if necessary, notify the caller that the reception is rejected, and based on the negative caller registration unit 9, the call originating from Steps S11 to S20 of the main control unit 1 And a person reception denial unit.

Therefore, no matter what telephone call, document, data, etc. is sent from the caller, the content is confirmed by the information management unit of steps S11 to S15 of the main control unit 1, and the unnecessary document is displayed on the display 11. At the stage indicated by, the document can be discarded and the document that is harmful or unnecessary to the recipient can be removed. In particular, a DM or the like sent by facsimile can be dealt with without making a hard copy, and no waste of resources occurs. Further, when the number of receptions from the caller reaches a certain number of times, the reception is denied only by the judgment of the caller, so that the administrator can save the time and effort of checking. At this time, by sending a message to the caller side indicating that the call cannot be received, it can be understood that the call is not received by the caller and is not received artificially.

Further, in the present embodiment, in the case where the permission of the communication is judged by the voice recognition of the caller side, the receiver side can make a finer judgment than the call ID in advance, and the same call can be made. Individual callers can also be managed by ID.

In the above embodiment, the caller whose arrival information cannot be received is specified, and when the number of receptions from the caller reaches the specified number of times, it is registered in the negative caller registration unit 9 and thereafter. Is a negative caller registration unit 9 that denies the reception based on the caller judgment only.
Although it has a caller reception denial unit consisting of 0, it is also possible to manually register a caller whose incoming information is unacceptable to the negative caller registration unit 9.

That is, in the case of implementing the present invention, when the communication side registration section 5 in which the call ID of a specific calling party side is registered in advance at the receiving side and the signal from the calling side is received. , The receiving party determination section including step S5 of the main control section 1 for determining whether the caller side call ID is registered in the correspondent registration section 5, and the receiver is not registered in the correspondent registration section 5 When the determination is made, the content of the incoming information from the caller side is determined, and it is determined whether or not the specific recipient should receive the incoming information, and the information management unit including steps S11 to S15 of the main control unit 1. An information storage unit 8 that stores incoming information from the caller side, which is permitted by the information management unit, in a predetermined area.
And an information output unit including a handset unit 3 and a print output unit 4 for outputting the information received from the caller side and stored in the information storage unit 8 in response to an output request from a specific registrant. is there.

Therefore, no matter what telephone call, document, data, etc. is sent from the caller, the content is confirmed by the information management unit of steps S11 to S15 of the main control unit 1, and the unnecessary document is displayed on the display 11. It can be discarded at the stage indicated by and can be removed without hard-copying documents that are harmful or unnecessary to the recipient. In particular, a DM or the like sent by facsimile can be dealt with without making a hard copy, and no waste of resources occurs. The information storage unit 8 has an information output unit including a handset unit 3 and a print output unit 4 for outputting the information received from the caller side and output by a specific registrant's output request. Except for telephones, documents, data, etc., the privacy of the recipient can be observed, and the answering machine or facsimile can have a confidential function. There is no.

Further, as in the present embodiment, in the case where the permission of the communication is judged by the call ID on the calling party side, the function can be realized by registering the call ID on the receiving side in advance. , The cost of the device is reduced, and the reliability is improved.
