Abstract
An image forming apparatus includes upstream and downstream transport rollers for transporting a recording paper sheet. The upstream transport roller is disposed on the upstream side of a recording head while the downstream transport roller is disposed on the downstream side of the recording head. When forming an image on the first half area of the recording sheet, the upstream transport roller rotates and is responsible for transporting the recording sheet. When forming an image on the second half area of the recording sheet, the downstream transport roller rotates and is responsible for transporting the sheet. This structure provides printing without margins at the leading and trailing edges of the sheet. By adjusting the gap sizes between rollers in each of the upstream and the downstream rollers, the transport speed of the sheet is maintained constant so that high-quality print image can be obtained without uneven density in an image.

The specific embodiment
Now, describe image forming method according to an embodiment of the invention and image processing system here in detail with reference to accompanying drawing.
Fig. 1 diagram is as the main portion of the thermal printer 1 of an embodiment of image processing system.Image information is sent to thermal printer 1 from the upper system that comprises digital device (for example, personal computer or digital camera) or main frame by for example stube cable control part (not shown).In case the image information of receiving, the operation of control part opening entry is to form image on the thin slice 3 as record-paper.
The thin slice 3 that is contained in the paper feeding disk (give send portion) 2 is pressed in to sending on the roller 6 by last/lower plate 5, on this/and lower plate 5 swings up and down around last/lower plate axle 4.Sent the rotation of roller 6 to pick up thin slice 3.Thin slice 3 is given in the device body then.The major part of the image forming part of thermal printer 1 is the record head 10 as the recording-member of document image on thin slice 3.Send roller 6 to be transferred for the thin slice 3 that send by giving, up to thin slice 3 process record heads 10.In Fig. 1, are positions of the record operation beginning on thin slice 3 in the position on record head 10 left sides.Therefore, thin slice 3 is sent dish 2 to be sent to the record start position on the left side that is positioned at record head 10 from the giving of the right that is positioned at record head 10.Subsequently, thin slice 3 back moves along the direction that arrow D represents, forms operation with the beginning image.
For simplicity, the left side of the record head 10 of image forming part is known as the upstream side of thin slice induction system.The right side of record head 10 is known as the downstream of thin slice induction system.Equally, the direction from the upstream side to the downstream (D represents by arrow) is known as " print and transmit " direction.Direction from the downstream to the upstream side (that is, sending giving of dish 2 to send direction from giving) is known as " being sent " direction.
On the upstream side of record head 10, be provided with first transfer member that is known as " the upstream transfer roller is to 7 ".Equally, on the downstream of record head 10, be provided with and comprise up and down second transfer member (hereinafter being called " the downstream transfer roller is to 8 ") of transfer roller.The upstream transfer roller to 7 and the downstream transfer roller all can rotate in 8 each along two rotation directions, that is, rotate in the counterclockwise direction to transmit thin slice 3 printing direction of transfer, rotate along clockwise direction to send direction to transmit thin slice 3 giving.In other words, send dish 2 to be sent in the device body for the thin slice 3 that send to 8 from the downstream transfer roller from giving.Subsequently, thin slice 3 is sent to record start position at the upstream transfer roller under to 7 assistance.
Now, here with reference to all figure after Fig. 2 to the upstream transfer roller to 7 and the clamping guiding mechanism of downstream transfer roller in to 8 describe.
The upstream transfer roller comprises to sending roller 20, thin slice backer roll 21, thin slice pressure rod 22 and roller pressing spring 23 7 clamping guiding mechanism.Give and send roller 20 to comprise the roll shaft that is used as turning cylinder.The two ends of roll shaft are supported by the body of print apparatus.The gear (not shown) is formed on to an end that send roller 20.This gear and an end mesh with the gear train (not shown) of the conveying motor 217 (see figure 5)s coupling that is used as source of rotational drive.The rotation of source of rotational drive makes to sending roller 20 to rotate.On to a surface of sending roller 20, be formed with many projectioies, so that to sending roller 20 to grip reliably and giving and send thin slice 3.
Thin slice backer roll 21 with sent roller 20 to be arranged in parallel.The two ends of thin slice backer roll 21 are supported rotationally by thin slice pressure rod 22.In order to prevent that the lip-deep projection that is formed on to sending roller 20 is damaged, to sending between roller 20 and the thin slice backer roll 21 the pad (not shown) is being set, thereby is giving the gap of sending formation preliminary dimension between roller 20 and the thin slice backer roll 21.
Thin slice pressure rod 22 is supported rotationally by thin slice pressure rod axle 24, and this thin slice pressure rod axle 24 is supported by the body of device.Shown in Fig. 2 to 4, roller pressing spring 23 is extension springs, and its two ends are for being hooked to the crook of thin slice pressure rod 22 and body respectively.Therefore, the thin slice pressure rod 22 of thin slice backer roll 21 by predetermined pressure with sent roller 20 to contact.Thin slice 3 is clamped in in the gap of sending between roller 20 and the thin slice backer roll 21.Send the projection that forms on the surface of roller 20 can help giving to sending roller 20 to grip reliably and giving and send thin slice 3.
The downstream transfer roller to 8 have basically to the upstream transfer roller to 7 similar structures, therefore, with the upstream transfer roller 7 element components identical is represented with identical Reference numeral, and is no longer repeated its explanation.
Fig. 5 is the control calcspar of print apparatus.Control panel 201 as control part comprises central processing unit (CPU) 210, read-only storage (ROM) 211, random access storage device (RAM) 212, head driver 213 and motor driver 214.CPU210 control bidirectional record portion also exports the various control instruction.ROM211 storage control data etc.RAM212 is as the zone of extension record data.Head driver 213 activation record heads (heat head) 10.China ink band motor 215 drive pulleys 15 are with 14 to batch China ink.Give and send motor 216 to drive to sending roller 6.Conveying motor 217 driving upstream transfer rollers send roller 20, downstream transfer roller to send roller 20 and air roll 11 to 8 give to 7 give.The great majority of motor driver 214 drive said motor.Solenoid 219 is to be used for the actuator of slip-on head arm.Interface 230 receives data and sends data to main device 250 from main device 250 (for example, computer or digital camera).
Now, the image forming method of this structure is used in explanation here.
When thin slice 3 when the downstream is sent to and move through record head 10, thin slice detecting sensor 9 detects the passing through of rear end (starting end during opening entry) of thin slices 3.The control part of thermal printer 1 according to from the thin slice of thin slice detecting sensor 9 by detection signal output function stop signal, with stop by upstream transfer roller that carrying motor 217 to drive to 7 and the downstream transfer roller to 8 rotation.Like this, thin slice 3 stops to send to.The position that thin slice 3 stops is a record start position.
The first half posting fields
Subsequently, the control part output function switching signal of thermal printer 1 is with edge and direction rotational conveyance motor 217 opposite during sending to.The upstream transfer roller send roller 20 beginnings to rotate along clockwise direction to 7 give, thereby is sent direction to advance towards record head 10 at the thin slice 3 that record start position stops along the printing shown in the arrow D among the figure.In this case, the rear end of the thin slice when sending to 3 becomes the recording start end and moves towards record head 10.Image formation in zone from the lucky recording start end of thin slice 3 to mid point basically.Like this, in the first half posting fields of thin slice 3, carried out record.
The second half posting fields
The recording start end of the thin slice 3 that the first half posting fields have been recorded transfer roller towards downstream moves 8.Just the recording start end of thin slice 3 move into the downstream transfer roller to 8 in before, the downstream transfer roller increases gap size between roller to the thickness that is greater than or equal to thin slice 3 to 8 clamping guiding mechanism, thereby the downstream transfer roller all set receives thin slice 3 to 8.In other words, state is realized by cam motor 218 shown in figure 2.Like this, the downstream transfer roller receives from the upstream transfer roller 7 thin slice 38.The downstream transfer roller grips thin slice 3 with traction thin slice 3 to 8 at the recording start end.Subsequently, continue record in the second half posting fields of thin slice 3, remaining image is formed on this zone.
As shown in Figure 1, when first half-sum, the second half posting fields write down, move towards air roll 11 around the record head 10 of an arm axle 13 swings, with China ink is with 14 and thin slice 3 be pressed onto together on the air roll 11.Simultaneously, the upstream transfer roller moves to 7 clamping guiding mechanism, is used to grip thin slice 3 and gives the optimum size of delivering to corresponding to the position of record head 10 with thin slice 3 so that the gap size between the roller is adjusted to.
When the heating element heater row 12 on the record head 10 are with 14 to be transferred on the thin slice 3 in China ink based on image information from China ink, record operation beginning.With this operation synchronously, the upstream transfer roller is to 7 actions, with grip thin slice 3 and along print give send direction towards downstream side give and send thin slice 3.Give during the upstream transfer roller forms images 7 that be responsible for beginning at the printing starting end from thin slice 3, in the first half posting fields and send thin slice 3.At that time, belt pulley (China ink reels dish) 15 rotates, and is with 14 to begin to batch the China ink that its China ink has been transferred to thin slice 3.Yet, not being used for the China ink of transfer printing to be with 14 to be wrapped on the China ink band supply dish 16, this China ink band supply dish 16 and China ink reel the operation of batching of dish 15 and synchronously supply with China ink and be with 14.
The downstream transfer roller is responsible for after receiving the thin slice 3 that the first half posting fields have been recorded 8, gives during the image in the second half posting fields of thin slice 3 forms and send thin slice 3.As shown in Figure 2, when thin slice 3 enters the clamping part of 8 roller being determined by the downstream transfer roller, the downstream transfer roller increases to the size of the thickness that is greater than or equal to thin slice 3 to 8 clamping guiding mechanism with the gap size between the roller, thereby carries frictional force not act on thin slice 3.It is that image when thin slice 3 forms and alleviated vibrations when starting end enters the thin slice maintaining part with narrow clamping part that frictional force does not act on reason at the thin slice 3 of downstream transfer roller in to 8.If vibrations are very big when the image formation starting end of thin slice 3 enters the thin slice maintaining part with narrow clamping part, the transporting velocity of thin slice 3 can not keep evenly so, and therefore, the concentration spot that reduces picture quality has just taken place.
When the recording start end of thin slice 3 arrives the downstream transfer roller to 8 and moved when crossing the downstream transfer roller to 8 certain distances, cam motor 218 is driven, with rotating cam gear 25 and cam 30, as shown in Figure 4.Thereby, at the downstream transfer roller gap size between 8 the roller is reduced, with clamping with to sending thin slice 3.At that time, at the upstream transfer roller gap size between 7 the roller is increased to size more than or equal to the thickness of thin slice 3 by cam-shaped portion 29, therefore, the upstream transfer roller is to 7 interference thin flakes 3 moving of direction towards downstream not.
Even be set to equal by the displacement of downstream transfer roller to 8 thin slices that move 3 by the displacement of upstream transfer roller to 7 thin slices that move 3, in fact, because the precision difference between the parts, these two displacements are also different.In addition, if the upstream transfer roller to 7 and the downstream transfer roller send overlong time to giving of the front-end and back-end of 8 clamping thin slices 3, thin slice 3 may the upstream transfer roller to 7 and the downstream transfer roller be elongated or deflection between to 8.As a result, sent velocity variations, thereby cause the density unevenness of print image even.For fear of being sent this variation and output on the speed to stablize high-quality print image giving, the upstream transfer roller to 7 and the downstream transfer roller to 8 controlled so that both sent power not play a role simultaneously.
Subsequently, the downstream transfer roller continue to be given 8 and is sent thin slice 3, up to the record end end of the second half posting fields of thin slice 3 through the heating element heater row 12 on record head 10.After thin slice 3 overwriting 10, the downstream transfer roller stops 8 rotation.Simultaneously, China ink with 14 batch the operation stop.Like this, the record operation that forms first kind of color image is finished.This operation repeats several times for all colours, thereby the China ink of several different colours is printed on the thin slice 3 by a folded ground, to form coloured image.After coloured image formed, thin slice 3 guided to discharge path by turnover panel 17.Thereafter, the thin slice 3 that has been recorded is by outputing to sending on the dish 2 for the output paper backer roll 18 that send roller 6 and collaborative work together.
As mentioned above, can write down operation to sending direction to begin in the whole length areas of rear end, to form image at front end basically by the edge from thin slice 3.In addition, the margin space, that produce in the known printer device that is applied to grip is not produced in the front-end and back-end of thin slice 3.As a result, the whole space of thin slice 3 can be used effectively.
When thin slice 3 advances to the downstream transfer roller to 8 the time from the upstream transfer roller to 7, when the upstream transfer roller was to 7 gap sizes that increase between two rollers, the downstream transfer roller was to 8 clamping thin slices 3.Yet, may be when the upstream transfer roller be to 7 clamping thin slices 3, the downstream transfer roller is to 8 clamping thin slices 3.Subsequently, the upstream transfer roller is to 7 gap sizes that can increase between two rollers.
Now, here with reference to Fig. 6 to 8 detailed description tape deck according to a second embodiment of the present invention.Fig. 6 is the schematic sectional view of tape deck.It is right that Fig. 7 illustrates the downstream rotor, and wherein, recording medium touches a right rotor of downstream rotor.Fig. 8 illustrate according to when the upstream rotor to release the upstream rotor during to the clamping of recording medium right.
As shown in Figure 6, the tape deck 301 according to this embodiment is by using a heat heated ink band with the thermal printer according to the picture signal record image.
In case receive start-recording signal, tape deck 301 make can around last/lower plate axle 304 rotate on/lower plate 305 moving recording thin slices 303, this record sheet 303 is to be contained in the recording medium of printing in the paper disc 302.Therefore, record sheet 303 touches the input and output roller 306 of rotation, thereby thin slice 3 is given in the device body.
Carry for the record sheet 303 that send in the opposite direction with side shown in the arrow D by thin slice transfer unit 307 and 308 edges.According to present embodiment, thin slice transfer unit 307 is arranged on hot 310 upstream side (hereinafter referred is " upstream transfer unit ") along the sheet feeding direction, and thin slice transfer unit 308 is arranged on hot 310 downstream (hereinafter referred is " downstream transfer unit ") along the sheet feeding direction.It is right that thin slice transfer unit 307 and 308 respectively comprises as the roller of rotor.This roller send record sheet 303 to clamping record sheet 303 to give.
When the recording start end of record sheet 303 arrived record sheet front-end detection sensor 309, upstream transfer unit 307 and 308 responses of downstream transfer unit stopped to sending record sheet 303 from the instruction of tape deck 301.
Play upstream transfer unit 307 and downstream transfer unit 308 stops to till the moment of sending record sheet 303 from the moment that record sheet 303 is given to tape deck 301, between heat 310 and air roll 311, keep the gap, be transferred thereby record sheet 303 can pass the gap.
Subsequently, 308 responses of upstream transfer unit 307 and downstream transfer unit are from the instruction of tape deck 301, beginning along with promptly give for the current side who send record sheet 303 in the opposite direction to send record sheet 303 along the direction shown in the arrow D.
When the recording start end of record sheet 303 is transported to the heating element heater row 312 on the heat of the portion that notes down 310 time, record sheet 303 is stopped.
Thereafter, the record operation of beginning on record sheet 303.In other words, the heating element heater row 312 on hot 310 are switched on based on image information by beginning.Begun to be transferred on the record sheet 303 for the China ink that send by China ink band supply unit 316 with 314 China ink.Simultaneously, transfer unit 307 beginnings in upstream are given along downstream direction and are sent record sheet 303.Equally, China ink reels portion 315 and begins to batch its China ink and be transferred to China ink band on the record sheet 303.
Record sheet 303 is continued to be sent along downstream direction.When the recording start end of record sheet 303 arrives downstream transfer unit 308, upstream transfer unit 307 and downstream transfer unit 308 clamping record sheets 303 and conveying record sheet 303.
In addition, according to present embodiment, in tape deck 301, when the 308 beginning clampings of upstream transfer unit 307 and downstream transfer unit with give when sending record sheet 303, the be separated from each other distance of the thickness that is greater than or equal to record sheet 303 of two rollers of upstream transfer unit 307.Therefore, at the recording start end of record sheet 303 through upstream rollers to before, these rollers discharge to the gripping of record sheet 303, so that record sheet 303 is only carried (see figure 8)s by downstream transfer unit 308.
Even the displacement that record sheet 303 is moved by upstream transfer unit 307 is set to equal the displacement that thin slice 3 is moved by downstream transfer unit 308, in fact, since the precision difference between the parts, this two displacement difference.Therefore, if overlong time is sent in giving of upstream transfer unit 307 and downstream transfer unit 308 clamping record sheets 303, record sheet 303 may be elongated or deflection between upstream transfer unit 307 and downstream transfer unit 308.As a result, density unevenness may occur in the image that has write down spares.In tape deck according to present embodiment, in order to address this problem, two rollers at record sheet by upstream transport roller to before with regard to the RR release record thin slice.
This operation repeats several times for all colours, thereby the China ink of several different colours is printed on the record sheet 303 by a folded ground, to form coloured image.After coloured image formed, record sheet 303 guided to discharge path by turnover panel 317.Thereafter, record sheet 303 is outputed to by input and output roller 306 that rotates and output paper backer roll 318 and prints on the paper disc 302.
According to present embodiment, tape deck 301 is included in the sheet-conveying device in record portion upstream side and downstream.When the first half posting fields of the contiguous recording start end of print record thin slice 303, upstream transfer unit 307 is carried record sheets 303.And when the second half posting fields of the contiguous record end end of print record thin slice 303, downstream transfer unit 308 is carried record sheets 303.Therefore, can write down operation, and not produce margin in the front end of record sheet 303 or rear end the space that is applied to grip.
In the printer arrangement that does not produce margin of first and second embodiment, as mentioned above, the two thin slice conveying rollers that are arranged on upstream side and downstream are rotated.Therefore, in order to be driven this two thin slices conveying roller by single drive source and monodentate train, gear train has structure as shown in Figure 9.
Now, here briefly explain in the gear train shown in Fig. 9.
Driving force from source of rotational drive 330 (217) is passed to upstream paper conveying roller gear 333 by driving transmission gear 331 and 332.This driving force is rotated roller 334, and this roller 334 is one of two rollers of upstream transfer unit 307, and this roller 334 and 333 couplings of upstream paper conveying roller gear.Another roller 335 in two rollers of upstream transfer unit 307 is driven vollers.The driving force that is delivered to upstream paper conveying roller gear 333 further is delivered to downstream paper conveying roller gear 336 by idler gear 339.This driving force is rotated roller 337, and this roller 337 is one of two rollers of downstream transfer unit 308, and this roller 337 and 336 couplings of downstream paper conveying roller gear.Another roller 338 in two rollers of downstream transfer unit 308 is driven vollers.
Such gear train comprises a series of gears between source of rotational drive 330 and downstream paper conveying roller gear 336, as mentioned above.Therefore, the gear number increases.Like this, be difficult to reduce the size of print apparatus.
Now, explanation here comprises the 3rd embodiment gear train, that be suitable for reducing the print apparatus size of another kind of type.
The print apparatus of a third embodiment in accordance with the invention has the structure with the structural similarity shown in first or second embodiment, except the structure of gear train.Now, here with reference to the gear train of Figure 10 explanation according to the 3rd embodiment.
The driving force of source of rotational drive 340 is transmitted gear 341 by driving force and is delivered to driving force transmission gear 342, and this driving force is transmitted gear 342 and is set up free to rotately.
The driving force of rotating is transmitted gear 342 driving force is passed to upstream paper conveying roller gear 343 and downstream paper conveying roller gear 346, with while live-rollers 344 and roller 347.Roller 344 is one of two rollers of upstream transfer unit 307. Roller 344 and 343 couplings of upstream paper conveying roller gear.And roller 347 is one of two rollers of downstream transfer unit 308. Roller 347 and 346 couplings of downstream paper conveying roller gear.Roller 345 is driven vollers, and it is in two rollers of upstream transfer unit 307 another; Roller 348 is driven vollers, and it is in two rollers of downstream transfer unit 308 another.
Such gear train can make does not need the idler gear 339 shown in Fig. 9, thereby reduces the size of gear train.As a result, can reduce the size of print apparatus.In addition, because the decreased number of gear, can reduce production costs.
Now, the operation of first and second embodiment is described here, in this operation, one of two rollers of downstream transfer unit 308 are supported free to rotately driven rollers.
