1. A communication terminal device comprising:
document input means for obtaining a page of an image comprising a plurality of pages to be transmitted;
image storage means for storing at least a first page of the image obtained by the document input means;
communication control means capable of communicating with a recipient over a communication line or network; and
control means for causing the communication control means to automatically initiate dialing to the recipient when the first page of the plurality of pages of the image has been obtained from the document input means and stored in the image storage means,
wherein the control means indicates an incompletely stored page number to a user and appends a message to a document page to be transmitted last to inform the recipient that there are still additional pages remaining to be received when, after the communication control means has dialed the recipient, an amount of space available in the image storage means falls below a predetermined value.
2. A communication terminal device comprising:
document input means for obtaining a page of an image comprising a plurality of pages to be transmitted;
image storage means for storing at least a first page of the image obtained by the document input means;
communication control means capable of communicating with a recipient over a communication line or network; and
control means for causing the communication control means to automatically initiate dialing to the recipient when the first page of the plurality of pages of the image has been obtained from the document input means and stored in the image storage means,
wherein the control means indicates an incompletely stored page number to a user and appends a message to a document page to be transmitted last to inform the recipient that there are still additional pages remaining to be received when, after the communication control means has dialed the recipient, the image storage means becomes full.
3. The communication terminal device of claim 1 further including monitoring means for enabling a user to monitor the communication line or network, and wherein the control means activates the monitoring means when the communication control means initiates dialing.
4. The communication terminal device of claim 2 further comprising monitoring means for enabling a user to monitor the communication line or network, and wherein the control means activates the monitoring means when the communication control means initiates dialing.
5. The communication terminal device of claim 1 wherein if one page of an image cannot be stored, the device informs the user of this fact.
6. The communication terminal device of claim 5 wherein when the device informs the user, the device suggests an alternative transmission method.
7. The communication terminal device of claim 1 wherein scanning and transmission are performed simultaneously starting from a second page of the document.
The claims below are in addition to those above.
All refrences to claim(s) which appear below refer to the numbering after this setence.
1. A steering device comprising:
a steering column that rotatably supports a steering wheel;
a column side bracket that supports the steering column;
a vehicle body side bracket coupled to the column side bracket; and
an impact absorption mechanism configured to move the steering column in a direction along the steering column in a second collision, wherein
the impact absorption mechanism includes an impact absorption member and a supporting member, the impact absorption member being integrally formed with an elastic supporting portion and an extending portion, the elastic supporting portion being supported by the vehicle body side bracket and elastically supporting the steering column, the extending portion extending in a direction along the steering column, the supporting member being supported by a vehicle body and supporting a part of the extending portion in a longitudinal direction of the extending portion.
2. The steering device according to claim 1, wherein
the impact absorption member is made of a flexible wire rod.
3. The steering device according to claim 1, wherein
the supporting member includes a main body portion and a supporting portion, the main body portion being secured to the vehicle body, the main body portion supporting the vehicle body side bracket, the supporting portion supporting a part of the extending portion in the longitudinal direction, and
the main body portion allows the vehicle body side bracket to leave from the vehicle body when a load equal to or more than a predetermined load interacts with the vehicle body side bracket in the second collision.
4. The steering device according to claim 3, wherein
the extending portion has a length set so that a relative movement amount of the vehicle body side bracket with respect to the supporting member in the second collision is larger than a movement amount required for the vehicle body side bracket to leave from the vehicle body in the second collision.
5. The steering device according to claim 1, further comprising:
a mounting member mounted to the vehicle body, the mounting member supporting the vehicle body side bracket so that the vehicle body side bracket slidably moves in the direction along the steering column; and
a sandwich member disposed at an opposite side of the vehicle body side bracket sandwiching the mounting member, the sandwich member sandwiching the mounting member with the vehicle body side bracket, wherein
the supporting member is immovably disposed at the mounting member, and
the vehicle body side bracket and the sandwich member are configured to start leaving from the mounting member when a load equal to or more than a predetermined load interacts with the vehicle body side bracket in the second collision.
6. The steering device according to claim 5, wherein
the extending portion has a length set so that a relative movement amount of the vehicle body side bracket with respect to the supporting member in the second collision is larger than a movement amount required for the vehicle body side bracket to leave from the vehicle body in the second collision.
