Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Required 11J] Regarding a facsimile machine having a partial extraction function that identifies symbol data specifying a range to be transmitted from scanned data of a manuscript and transmits only the scanned data of the designated range, The aim is to provide a facsimile machine that can specify a range with high precision without contaminating the document.
In the facsimile machine II, which has a partial extraction function that identifies symbol data specifying the range to be transmitted from this read data and transmits only the read data in the specified range,
A readable and removable mark member is provided at a transmission start position and a transmission end position on the sides corresponding to the transmission range of the document.

[Industrial Field of Application] The present invention relates to a facsimile machine, and more specifically, it identifies symbol data that specifies a range to be transmitted from scanned data of a document, and transmits only the scanned data within the specified range. This invention relates to an improvement in a facsimile machine having a partial extraction function.

For example, fax! When transmitting a family register extract or the like using A1, it is necessary to extract and transmit the necessary parts.

[Prior Art] FIG. 3 is a two-dimensional diagram showing an example of a partial extraction method in a conventional facsimile machine. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a document to be transmitted, and on the left side of the front surface of the document 1, an a-line 3 is written in white as a symbol for designating a range 2 to be transmitted (shaded area of the document 1). The facsimile machine identifies the data on a straight line 3 that specifies the range to be transmitted from the read data of the document 1, and transmits only the read data in the range on the right side of the straight line 3 (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 56-32868) reference).

FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram showing another example of a partial extraction method in a conventional facsimile machine. In the figure, numeral 4 is an OMR sheet for specifying transmission control of the facsimile machine, and a straight line 5 is written on the left side of the front surface of the OMR sheet 4 as a symbol for specifying the range to be transmitted. The facsimile machine identifies the data of the straight line 5 specifying the range to be transmitted from the read data of the OMR paper 4, and transmits only the read data of the range to be transmitted from the read data of the document 1.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, according to the former method of extracting parts of a document in a facsimile machine, the document gets dirty because a straight line is written directly on the surface of the document, and important meats etc. that should not be soiled are Not suitable for transmission.

Furthermore, according to the latter method of extracting parts of a document in a facsimile machine, the range of the document to be transmitted is indirectly specified via the OMR paper, and it is not possible to specify the range with high precision.

The present invention has been made in view of these points,
To provide a facsimile device capable of specifying a range with high accuracy without staining a document.

[Means for Solving the Problems] FIG. 1 is a block diagram of the principle of facsimile mounting according to the present invention, and the same parts as in FIG. 3 are denoted by the same reference numerals. In the figure, reference numeral 6 denotes a readable and removable mark member attached to a transmission start position and a transmission end position on the sides corresponding to the transmission range of the original document 1, and uses a clip, for example. The clip is convenient because it is relatively easy to obtain anywhere, and even when attached to the document 1, it is securely fixed by the biasing force of the spring.

[Operation] The operator attaches the mark members 6 to the transmission start position and the transmission end position on the sides of the original 1 corresponding to the range to be transmitted. The reading section of the facsimile machine reads the mark member 6 attached to the side of the original 1 in the same way as the black image information of the original 1.

The facsimile II identifies the data of the mark members 6 specifying the range to be transmitted from the read data of the document 1, and transmits only the read data of the range on the right side between the mark members 6.

[Example] Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing an embodiment of the present invention, and the same parts as in FIG. 1 are designated by the same reference numerals. In the figure, reference numeral 7 denotes a document table, on which the document 1 to be transmitted is placed. Reference numeral 8 denotes a reading section for reading image information of the original document 1 including the mark member 6, and the reading section 8 is moved along the reading section driving direction shown by the arrow by the reading saga drive section 9 under the control of the facsimile control section 11. The reading data of the original 1 output from the reading section 8 is applied to the image recognition section 10, and the position of the mark member 6 is detected. The output signal of the image recognition section 10 is applied to a facsimile control section 11. The facsimile control unit 11 follows a preprogrammed procedure.
The image data in the range specified by the mark member 6 is transmitted to the outside.

When sending externally, start from the beginning of the scan amount of document 1.
Forcibly converting the black image data included in the image data up to the FBth mark member 6 and the image data after the second mark member 6 into white image data, or performing such image data conversion. Only the image data in the range designated by the mark member 6 is transmitted to the outside.

With this configuration, it is not necessary to write symbols directly on the original, so the original is not stained and can be applied to all originals. Furthermore, since the desired range of the document to be transmitted is specified by directly attaching the mark member to the document, high specification accuracy can be obtained.

Note that the mark member may be made of gold or plastic, and any mark member that can be detected as black image data and that can be easily attached and detached is sufficient. Further, the mark member is not limited to the above-mentioned clip, and other types of mark members can be used.

[Effects of the Invention] As described in detail above, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a facsimile device that can specify an extraction range with high precision without staining the original.
