摘要:
An information reader has a number of linear image sensors dividing one line of picture information into as many parts for reading an original. As these sensors may be relatively shifted in the subscanning direction, signal delay devices are provided corresponding to the sensors for delaying a read out signal by an amount corresponding to the respective shift of the image sensors. The invention removes severe constraints on the placement and alignment of the sensors, facilitating installation and maintenance.

A copying machine includes an optical sensor of the line scanning type for converting an image into electrical signals, and a thermal recording head controlled in accordance with the image signals. The platen moves with respect to the read unit and the read unit will read in both forward and reverse directions of the platen, and the magnification value can be varied. The total width of energized heating elements and the movement length and speed of the platen may be controlled in accordance with the size of the original. The total number of heating elements energized at any one time is limited, and the machine includes input and output terminals for sending image information externally and for receiving and recording image information other than directly from the read unit.

A multicolor recording apparatus includes a number of recording sections for applying different colors of inks. A main transport path travels through all recording sections, while bypass paths are provided for recording sheets which are to be recorded monochromatically, for example, so that any one or more of the recording sections may be bypassed. To eliminate wastage of ink donor sheet, the web containing the solid ink is not conveyed in recording sections bypassed by the sheet.
摘要:
A picture data processing device in which a region specifying original having markings which physically define a region of interest of an original document to be processed is read and stored. When the original document is read, the stored markings are reproduced to mask out the areas of the original document other than the region of interest. A signal processing operation, such as extraction, rearrangement, or size alteration with respect to the selected region can then be performed.

A heat sensitive recording apparatus using an ink donor sheet in the form of a continuous band includes a device for detecting and correcting the tension applied to the band so as to prevent creases, etc. from being formed therein.

A character and image data reading system for a character and image data reading apparatus has an auxiliary scanning mechanism which moves an original relative to a solid image pickup element in a stepwise manner by a predetermined distance during an integration period of the pickup element so that a light receiving window of the pickup element covers a region corresponding to at least an auxiliary scanning width.
摘要:
The invention relates to an image transmission process such as facsimile transmission wherein image data is converted into an electrical signal, transmitted over lines and then converted into a recorded image at the receiving end. Specifically, the invention concerns a process wherein conventional commercial electric power lines are used as the transmission line, such that facsimile or other image transmission may be easily effected within, for example, a single building or similarly limited area.
摘要:
In a method and an apparatus for reading a color image wherein the color image is illuminated and scanned by light from a plurality of light sources having different spectral properties to read the color image on the basis of the reflected light therefrom, at least one light source of the light sources is kept turned on during the scanning operation of the color image, thereby eliminating any problems resulting from its after-glow; and at least one light source of the light sources other than that kept turned on is repeatedly turned on and off with a period corresponding to the period of the scanning operation so as to project the light from the single and plural light sources selected from the light sources, at least once respectively, upon the scanned portions of the color image. The color image is read by detecting colors on the scanned portions of the color image on the basis of levels of the light reflected from the color image. A variety of colors may be detected by the present invention including red, blue, black and cyan. In addition, the present invention also teaches the use of color filters to eliminate the potential after-glow effect of color fluorescent lamps.
摘要:
A picture image position setting apparatus having a linear reading element for obtaining picture information by scanning an original document successively line after line. A position designating cursor is attached slidably in a main scanning direction on a platen at a front end or a rear end portion of an original document scanning region on the platen. The position designating cursor is arranged to be sensed by the linear reading element to distinguish it from other scanned portions. A circuit converts picture image information with respect to the position designating which has been read into positional information in the main scanning direction.
