DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an automatic sender information sending device in a personal information sending device such as a facsimile sending device.

Conventional Structure and Problems Therewith FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the structure of a caller information automatic transmission device used in a conventional facsimile transmission device. In this figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a caller information automatic sending device, which includes a memory 2 that stores single caller information as a character code, and generates a character pattern signal corresponding to the character code read from this memory 2 and IB. and an OR gate 4 that logically synthesizes a character pattern signal into a one-picture information signal.

5('j): A reading unit that scans and photoelectrically converts an 8-image original and outputs a single information signal; 6 is a modulation/demodulation unit; and 7 is a control unit that controls the entire facsimile transmitting apparatus.

Explain the operation. Under the control of the control section 7, the character code of the sender information is read out from the memory 2 in synchronization with the document reading operation of the reading section 6. The character pattern statement corresponding to that character code is the character generator 3
The output signal is serially outputted from the OR gate 4, combined with the drawing information signal, modulated by the modulation/demodulation section 6, and sent to the line.

Above theory F! As shown in FIG. 1, the conventional sending device 1 is configured such that only the sender's information 1 i, J:, - person's information 4a] ψ can be sent. Therefore, when a person other than the sender whose sender information is stored in the memory 2 uses the facsimile transmission device, there is the inconvenience of having to write the sender's name on the transmitted document and the inconvenience of the transmitted document being stained. there were.

Kawano suggests that it is possible to solve such problems by making it possible to overwrite the stored contents of memory 2 from the operation panel, and by having the user of the facsimile transmitter rewrite the caller information according to the situation. It is. However, when a large number of people use the facsimile transmission device, 11 of memory 2;
There is the inconvenience of having to perform 1) °Y"・4/1 repeatedly, which is not practical.

Purpose of the Invention The present invention solves the above-mentioned problems of the conventional art.Even when a calligraphy information transmitting device is used by a plurality of people, there is no need to write the sender's name on a calligraphy manuscript or to perform cumbersome panel operations. It is an object of the present invention to provide an automatic sender information sending device that can send out sender information without having to send the caller information.

Structure of the Invention The present invention provides a plurality of storage means for storing sender information as a character code, specifies any one storage means as a storage control means by operating an input means, and stores caller information from the storage means. The structure is such that the character code of the information is read out, converted into a character pattern signal as in the conventional case, and synthesized with the calligraphy information signal.

Explanation of real sister example Hereinafter, a sister example of the present invention will be explained with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing the configuration of an automatic caller information sending device according to an embodiment of the present invention. In this figure, 1
1 is a caller information automatic sending device. Reference numerals 12 to 14 are components of a calligraphy information transmitting device in which the sender information automatic sending device 11 is incorporated; 12 is a reading unit that reads calligraphy and writing data and outputs a calligraphy information signal; 13 is a modulation/demodulation unit; 14t/:
'l, device; "l:, is a control unit that controls the entire device.

The structure of the automatic caller information sending device 11 is explained as follows.
0 to 169 are read/write memories for respectively storing character information of sender information of -Oita. These 10 memories 16° to 169 are actually realized as memory areas of a RAM 15 that has been updated. Reference numeral 16 denotes a storage control section that controls reading and writing of the RAM 15, and is composed of a decoder 17 and a control t11 circuit 19. 2o is a numeric keypad device as an input means, which is provided on the operation panel of the direct information transmitting device. 21 is a phantom, a chitractor generator, and 22 is an OR gate.

Next, the operation of the caller information automatic sending device 11 will be explained.

1, sender to memory 16°~159 ↑7″j dimension 1ψ
The operation when performing one input will be explained. For example, memo +) 16 To store caller information in o, press the yellow key on the numeric keypad device 2o. When the decoder 17 receives the code of the ■ key from the numeric keypad device 20, it outputs a write mode signal to cause the control circuit 19 to enter the write mode. Next, the user presses the 0 key on the numeric keypad device 20 and inputs the 0 key code to the control circuit 19. When the O key code is entered manually, the control circuit 19 sets the start address of the memory 16° in an internal counter. The contents of this counter are applied to the address input of RAM 16. Next, by operating the 10 numeric keys on the numeric keypad@2o, a character code of a certain number of digits is input. This character code is stored in the RAM via the control circuit 19.
15 is input. Control circuit 19 illusion 2, numeric keypad device 2
Every time a character code is input from 0, RAM1s
After supplying a write signal to and writing a character code to the address specified by the value of the internal counter, the value (address) of the internal counter is incremented by one. When the character code of the last digit of the sender information is written in this manner, the control circuit 19 resets the decoder 17 and then enters the read mode.

To store caller information in other memories 151 to 169, press the yellow key/ζ, then press the number key corresponding to the memory number (1 to 9), and finally input the character code of the caller information using the number keys. If you input by operating , the caller information will be written into the specified memory by the same operation.

Next, we will explain the operation when transmitting calligraphy information.

In this case, before starting the transmission of the calligraphy information, the user presses in advance the number key corresponding to the number of the memo I bar 16° to 169) in which the sender's caller information is stored.

For example, if the 9 key is pressed, the control circuit 19 will
The specified start address of the memory 169 is placed in the 1-IS counter.

Thereafter, under the control of control f'11114, the reading section 12 starts reading and scanning the calligraphy and drawing manuscript, but during a period in which a specific area in the margin of the drawing and drawing document is being scanned, a timing signal synchronized with the reading scanning is sent from the control section 14. The signal is supplied to the control circuit 19. The control circuit 19 supplies a read signal synchronized with the timing signal to the RAM 16, and counts up an internal counter in synchronization with the read timing signal. However, when the internal counter counts up to the final address of the specified memory 169, the first address is placed in the internal counter again. In this manner, the characters of the caller information are repeatedly read out from the memory 159 and input to the character generator 21 during the period when a predetermined area of the calligraphy manuscript is read and scanned.

On the other hand, the character generator 21 receives a clock and a line number signal that are synchronized with the reading scan by the reading section 12 and sends them to the control section 21.
It has been growing since 4. The character generator 21 reads the dot data of the line specified by the line number signal of the character pattern corresponding to the input character code in parallel from the internal memory, and converts it through the internal parallel/serial conversion register. , output in series as a character pattern signal in synchronization with the clock.

The character pattern signal outputted from the character generator 21 is logically summed with the calligraphy information signal from the reading section 12 by an OR gate, modulated by the modulation/demodulation section 13, and sent to the line.

In this way, according to the present sender information automatic sending device 11,
By performing an operation to store caller information in advance, caller information can be combined with calligraphy information and transmitted for up to 10 callers by simply operating the numeric keypad device 20.

Note that the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned examples, but can be modified as appropriate.

For example, the number of memories for storing caller information is not limited to ten. In fact, if it is not necessary to rewrite the caller information, a ROM can be used as a storage means for the caller information.

In addition, the card reading device on the magnetic cart' reader tongue is used as an input means for specifying the mail:H:1,1 that stores the caller TW information, and the memory number is read from the magnetic card, etc. according to the dial tone. It is also possible.

As described in detail, the present invention provides a plurality of storage means for storing caller information as a character code, and designates any one storage means as a storage control means by operating an input means. The character code of caller information is read from the storage means, the character code is converted into a character pattern signal by the character generation means, and the character code is synthesized by the synthesis means into the picture information signal. Even when the present invention is used by a plurality of people, the effect of transmitting the sender information can be obtained without having to perform the troublesome operation of writing the sender's name on the calligraphy manuscript.
