Abstract

PURPOSE:To facilitate a registration from a remote place by automatically recording image data to a first recording medium such as a hard disk and a second recording medium such as an optical disk and designating a key word and the transmission page of a document name beforehand at the time of registering facsimile data from the remote place. CONSTITUTION:At the time of detecting a reception from opposite facsimile equipment connected to a public network 17 by a facsimile communication control part 9, the data is stored in an image memory 4, a confirmation with the opposite party is executed at every page by the control part 9, a recording destination registration table where the recording destination is registered at every page is referred to, the recording destination from the memory 4 is decided, and the data stored in the memory 4 is recorded anew to hard disk 12 and an optical disk 13. Here, the document name and key word information necessary for a retrieval are transmitted in a first page, complementary explanation items are transmitted in a second page, and the image data are transmitted a third and subsequent pages. In such a manner, an operator can read the file on the disk 12 and displays it on a CRT 16, and a contents confirmation can be facilitated.

Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an image filing device in a filing system using a large-capacity recording medium such as an optical disk.

BACKGROUND ART FIG. 4 shows an example of the configuration of a conventional image filing device.
FIG. 2 is a functional block diagram. In FIG. 4, each unit has a system bus 10 for transferring code data;
It is connected to an image bus 11 for transferring image data, and each unit is configured as follows. A keyboard 18 is connected to the main CPU section 1 for overall control, and a hard disk 12 is connected to the hard disk control section 2 for reading and writing from and to the hard disk. An optical disc 13 is connected to the control section 3. 4 is an image memory for temporarily recording image data; 5 is an image memory for compressing image data;
This is an image conversion unit for decompression. The scanner control unit 6 also includes a scanner 1 for inputting images.
4 is connected and controls it. Further, a printer 15 for printing images is connected to the printer control section 7, and a CRT for displaying images is connected to the frame memory 8.
16 are connected.

Next, the operation of the above configuration will be explained. The image to be registered is read by the scanner 14, first stored in the image memory 4, compressed and encoded by the image converter 5, and then transferred to the optical disc 13 under the control of the optical disc controller 3.
recorded in On the other hand, the keywords and document names necessary to search for this image are input using the keyboard 13, and the keywords and document names required to search for this image are entered on the hard disk 12! The data is recorded on the optical disc 13.

When searching for an image registered on the optical disk, the CPU searches the database file on the hard disk 12 for the address of the desired image on the optical disk 13 based on the keyword data and document name entered from the keyboard 18. The data at the address on the optical disk 13 is read out into the image memory 4 under the control of the optical disk control section 3, decoded by the image conversion section 5, transferred to the frame memory 8, and displayed on the CRT 16.

Problems to be Solved by the Invention However, in the above-mentioned conventional image filing device,
Since the image input means was an image scanner, there was a problem in that registration was not possible from a remote location.

In addition, when using communication means such as facsimile, -
There is a problem in that once the facsimile is received by the facsimile receiving device, the image must be read in from the image scanner, and the keywords and document names have to be read in from the keyboard.

The present invention solves the above-mentioned conventional problems, and aims to provide an image filing device that can easily perform registration from a remote location.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides facsimile receiving means for receiving page-by-page image data and storing it in an image memory, and a recording destination registration table for storing a butterfly to record on a page-by-page basis. At the time of reception, the image part is directly recorded as image data on a recording medium such as an optical disk, and parts such as keywords and document names are temporarily recorded as images on another medium such as a hard disk. It is composed of

Effect With the above configuration, when registering from a remote location, image data is automatically recorded on a first recording medium such as a hard disk and a second recording medium such as an optical disk, and keywords and document names are automatically recorded on a first recording medium such as a hard disk and a second recording medium such as an optical disk. By specifying the page to be sent, the operator on the receiving side can read the file on the hard disk, display it on the CRT, easily check the contents, and input it again as code data from the keyboard. The operations on the receiving side and the receiving side can be separated, making it easy to register from a remote location.

Example An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a functional block diagram showing an image filing device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

In FIG. 1, 1 to 8, 10 to 16, and 18 are the same as in the conventional example shown in FIG. has been done.

The operations of each unit except for the facsimile communication control section 9 are almost the same as in the conventional example shown in FIG. Facsimile communication = Control unit 9 is directly connected to internal system bus 10 and image bus 11, and transfer to hard disk 12 and optical disk 13 via image memory 4, hard disk control unit 2, and optical disk control unit 3 is possible. It is possible.

Next, the operation of the above configuration will be explained. FIG. 2 shows a schematic flow of control at the time of reception in the facsimile communication control unit 9. When the facsimile communication control unit 9 detects reception from the other party's facsimile device connected to the public network 17, , enters data reception and stores the received data in the image memory 4. At this time, the facsimile communication control section 9 checks with the other party for each page, and refers to the recording destination registration table in which recording destinations are registered for each page as shown in FIG. The recording destination is determined, and the data stored in the star image memory 4 is recorded on the hard disk 12 and optical disk 13 again. Here, the first page is the document name and keyword information necessary for the search, the second page is the supplementary explanation, and the third and subsequent pages are the image data.

Further, in the recording destination registration table shown in FIG. 3, only the first page and the second page are registered to be recorded on the hard disk 12.

In this way, when registering from a remote location, image data is automatically recorded, and keywords and document names are specified in advance with pages, so the operator on the receiving side can read the file on the hard disk 12J and download it to the CrjT16. Since the content can be easily checked, and the code data can be entered again from the keyboard 18, operations on the sending side and operations on the receiving side can be separated, making it easy to register from a remote location. be able to.

Effects of the Invention As described above, according to the present invention, the recording destination of each page of data received by facsimile can be changed according to predetermined rules. If you send keyword information, supplementary information on the second page, and image data on the third page or later, the image data will be automatically recorded and registered on the optical disc, and there will be no need to input it again from the scanner. The operator on the receiving side can read out the information from the hard disk at any time and register it again as code data, and the operations on the sending side and the receiving side can be separated, making it easy to register from a remote location.
