JPS5917766A - System for shortening transmission time in facsimile - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To shorten the transmission time, by reducing and editing originals simultaneously in a facsimile by a reduction indication when >=1 originals are transmitted. CONSTITUTION:In respect to the first original, a reduction switch is monitored by a controller 5; and if reduction is indicated, a lens 2 is so switched by a lens switch 7 that the original is condensed to only the upper half of a sensor 3, and the original is reduced to 1/2 in the main scanning direction. Thereafter, a motor 11 is driven by the controller 5, and intervals of subscanning are doubled to rotate a roller 10, and the original is reduced to 1/2 in the subscanning direction. Simultaneously, the original 1 is read by the sensor 3 and is encoded by an encoder 4 and is stored in an area 8 of a memory 6. In respect to the second original, the lens 2 is so switched that the original is condensed to the lower half of the sensor 3, and the original is reduced to 1/2 similarly, and the original is encoded by the encoder 4 and is stored in an area 9 of the memory 6. Thereafter, codes of areas 8 and 9 are taken out synchronously with every line and are coupled into one-line components and are transmitted through an MODEM. Thus, originals are reduced to 1/4 as the whole and are transmitted, and the transmission time is shortened to about 1/4.

集作業を自動的に行ない伝送する方式である。If the original is legible even if it is not sent in its original size, the transmission time can be shortened by reducing or editing it. However, if you also have to reduce and edit the manuscript, it increases manual labor and is difficult. The present invention is a method for automatically performing reduction/editing operations and transmitting the data.

Thereafter, the data is encoded by the encoder in Part B, stored in the memory in part 9 by the control device in part 7, and sequentially transmitted through the modem in part 8, and functions as a facsimile machine by repeating reading and sending. Details of embodiments of the present invention will be explained using FIGS. 2 to 4. For the first document, as shown in Figure 2, the control device 5 monitors the reduction switch 9, and if there is a reduction instruction, the lens switch 7 changes the lens 2 to only the upper half of the sensor 5. The main scanning direction is set to 1.

モデムを通して送信する。After that, the 9 motors are driven from the 50 control device and the sub-running mode is executed:
The interval is doubled, 100 rollers are rotated, and the sub-scanning direction is reduced to 1/2. At 114, the original document A is encoded by the encoder 94 using the sensor 3 and stored in the area 8 of the memory 6 by the controller 50. For the second document, as shown in Figure 6, the control device 5 switches the lens cutter 7 to focus the lens 2 on the lower half of the sensor 6, and the main scanning direction is halved. to shrink. Thereafter, the control device 5 drives Tanabata 9, doubles the sub-scan interval, rotates 100 rollers, and reduces the sub-scan direction to 1/2. At the same time, the sensor No. 6 reads the document B, the encoder No. 4 encodes it, and the controller 50 stores it in the area No. 9 of the memory No. 6. After that, as shown in FIG. 4, the control device t determines the code of document A in area 1 of 4 stored in the memory of 6 and the code of Ryo'f+A B of area 2 of 5.
Each line is synchronized, extracted, combined into one line, and transmitted through two modems.
