Abstract

PURPOSE:To discharge an unnecessary document with a recycling document feeding device (RDF) kept closed by providing an input means for inputting a command for discharging said document and a control means for controlling a document feeding means in response to the command input, when the processing of a image for a read document is unnecessary. CONSTITUTION:When it is visually detected that image processing for a document picture image which is displayed on a image display device 5 is not necessary, due to error, and the like, said unnecessary document can be discharged out of an RDF 1 with the RDF 1 being kept closed, by operating an interruption key 22 which interruption controls a CPU 3 for judging and controlling the function of the image display device 5 and the existence of the document, at the time of detecting. Thereby, it is not necessary for an operator to carry out troublesome processing such as the conventional processing for restoring a generated jammed condition.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to an image processing device, particularly an image processing device that reads an original,
The present invention relates to an image processing device that processes images.

[Conventional technology]

A conventional example will be explained below.

Figure 2 shows the circulating document feeder (hereinafter referred to as RDF), and Figure 3 shows the state in which the RDF is opened from the original reading glass stand (hereinafter referred to as platen) of the input unit image league. .

FIG. 4 shows a schematic flow of image processing operations.

FIG. 5 shows a schematic configuration of the image processing device. Fifth
In the figure, 3 is the main control CPU, 4 is a typewriter keyboard (TV) for inputting character data and functions, and 5 is a CRT image display device (C
6 is a pointing device (PI) used to input a position on the display screen, 7 is an image league (IR) for image input, and 8 is an optical disk device that irreversibly stores a large amount of document image data. (OD), 9 is a disk device (DSK) for storing management information of document image data stored in the optical disk device 8, 10 is an image printer (PR) for printing high-quality documents, 11
The keyboard 4 to the image printer 10 are connected to the CPU 5 through the I10 bus.

The RDFI is in contact with the platen 2 of the image reader 7 for image input.

A conventional image processing operation will be explained with reference to FIGS. 4 and 5.

First, a plurality of originals are set on the original loading table 1-1 of the RDFI. The CPU 3 uses the RDF status sense 12. RDF normality judgment 13, RDF manuscript existence judgment 14
．． As shown in document presence/absence determination 15 on the platen and feed from RDF 16, the status on the RDFI, that is, the RDFI
Check whether the operation function of the RDFI is normal and whether there are originals on the RDFI and platen z.
Next, when the original is fed onto the platen 2 from the FI, the reading attributes for reading the original are displayed as shown in reading attribute instruction 17 in FIG.

The operator uses the pointing device 6 or the keyboard 4
If you specify the above attribute with ! As shown in Figure 34, reading start 18 and image display 19, reading is started and image display 19
will be held. At this point, as shown in the crowded state judgment 20 in the fourth illustration, a judgment is awaited as to whether to register the image or reread it and issue the reading attribute instruction 17 again.

If the original image set on the platen 2 is read and displayed and the original is an unnecessary original, the operator must use the RDFI to remove the unnecessary original on the platen 2. As shown in the perspective view of the RDFI opened from the platen 2 in FIG. 3, open the RDFI in contact with the platen 2 and remove or replace the unnecessary document on the platen 2.

At this time, in order to open the RDFI, the RDFI.

A paper jam occurs in the original and the machine becomes stuck, resulting in a so-called jam condition. The operator performs troublesome jam recovery operations,
Thereafter, the fourth drawing image registration 21 is performed, the remaining manuscripts are read, and the image processing is continued.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

In the conventional technology described above, in order to remove or replace the unnecessary original on the platen, the operator removes the unnecessary original from the RDFI and replaces it with the unnecessary original on the platen 2, as shown in FIG. In order to open the RDFI, the RDFI is opened from above the platen z, as shown in the figure below.
A so-called jam condition occurs, and the operator has to perform a troublesome jam recovery operation, which also causes problems such as the order of the documents being thrown out of order.

The present invention allows unnecessary originals or all subsequent originals to be saved in the RDFI without opening the RDFI that causes such a jam state.
The purpose is to discharge it from FI.

[Means for solving problems]

The present invention provides a circulating document feeding device, a reading device for reading the document fed by the feeding device, a display device for displaying the document image read by the reading device, and a document image read by the reading device. If image processing is not required for the original, input means for inputting a command to eject the original fed by the feeding means; and input means for inputting a command to eject the original fed by the feeding means; By having a control means for controlling the means, it is possible to eject unnecessary documents from the RDFI while the RDFI is closed, thereby solving the above problem.

[Effect]

When it is visually detected that the document image displayed on the image display device 5 does not require image processing due to an error or the like, the function of the image display device 5 and the CPU 3 that determines and controls the presence or absence of the document are interrupted. By operating the controlling interrupt means, the unnecessary document can be ejected by the RDFI, and the above-mentioned object of the present invention can be achieved.

〔Example〕

FIG. 1 is a flow diagram showing the sequence for ejecting a document from the RDF.

The flow shown in FIG. 1 is a sequence flow in which an interrupt key 22 corresponding to the interrupt means of the present invention is provided to control the CPU 3 and eject the original from the RDFI.

The flow of the image processing operation shown in FIG. 4 and the configuration of the image processing apparatus shown in FIG. 5, which were explained in the conventional example, are also applicable to this embodiment. Therefore, the description of configurations that are the same or equivalent to those of the conventional example will be omitted in this embodiment.

The symbols shown in this embodiment are the same as those in the conventional example.

The configuration of this embodiment includes an RDFI in contact with the platen 2 of the manual image reader 7 shown in the configuration diagram of the image processing apparatus in FIG. 5, an image display device 5 that displays an original image, and the image display device. 5, a CPU 3 that determines and controls the presence or absence of a document in the RDF and on the platen, and an interrupt key 22 that interrupts and controls this CPU 3. The interrupt key 22 is arranged as a control key and an R key, as shown in the keyboard 4 of FIG. shall be operated. In addition, in the image processing operation flow shown in FIG. 4, when waiting for input from the keyboard 4 and pointing device 6, the keyboard 4 and pointing device 6 programs (not shown) monitor each other even though there is no interruption. are doing.

In this embodiment, as shown in the sequence flow of FIG.
2 is provided, and this interrupt key 22 is used to perform an interrupt operation.

Next, image processing operations according to this embodiment will be explained. First,
After a plurality of documents are set on the RDFI, the steps from RDF status sense 12 to image display 19 in FIG. 4 proceed in the same manner as in the conventional example.

On the image display 19, the operator, as in the conventional example,
It is visually detected that the original is an unnecessary original. here,
When an operator discovers an unnecessary manuscript.

Quickly operate the interrupt key 22 on the keyboard 4. Whenever this operation is performed, the CP
U3 issues the RDF sense 23 command, receives the RDF status 24, and analyzes the status 25. In other words, it checks the presence or absence of a document on the platen 26. If there is a document, it sends an RDF ejection 27 command to the RDFI. .

Upon receiving this command, the RDFI performs a discharge operation 28, and upon completion of discharge, sends a discharge completion notification 29 to the CPU 3. The CPU 3 receives the notification and completes the operation.

In this case, one unnecessary original was ejected with the RDFI closed, but even if there were multiple unnecessary originals, the interrupt key 22 of the keyboard 4 could be pressed each time according to the number of unnecessary originals. , by sequentially operating, it is possible to eject all of the plurality of unnecessary documents.

Also, after ejecting unnecessary originals, RD all originals first.
If you want to return to the order set in the FI, after ejecting the unnecessary documents, press the interrupt key 22 on the keyboard 4 in the same way as above.
By operating sequentially each time, all the originals on RDFI can be fed, and the original can be transferred to RDF.
They can be returned to the same order as when they were set to I.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, according to the present invention, when a document fed by the RDF is read and the document is unnecessary, the RDF is read by operating the interrupt key, which is a means for interrupting the CPU. R the unnecessary document with the door closed.
Since the paper can be discharged from the DF, the operator no longer needs to perform troublesome processes such as the jam state recovery process that occurred in the conventional example.

In addition, by operating the interrupt key in sequence each time, you can skip forward all unnecessary originals and subsequent originals, so you can return the originals to the exact same order as when they were first set on the RDF. A big effect was obtained.
