There is provided a lens barrel with an vibration reduction unit, which allows a reduction in dimension of the lens barrel in the optical-axis direction in the accommodated state, and an imaging device including such lens barrel. The lens barrel includes first and second lens units, a drive part for driving one of the first and second lens units in the optical-axis direction with respect to a stationary part, the drive part driving the one of the first and second lens units to approach each other during shifting to an accommodated state, and an vibration reduction part for moving the other lens unit in a plane substantially orthogonal to the optical axis so that at least part of a position of the other lens unit in the optical-axis direction coincides with a position of the drive part in the accommodated state.
摘要:
An image recording device, wherein deviation of an image-recording start position, which results from a difference in the amount of expansion and contraction based on temperature changes between a printing plate precursor, a rotating support, a mechanism for moving a recording head, and the like, is corrected so that an image can be recorded at a proper position. Temperature 1 near the rotating support is obtained by a first temperature sensor, and temperature 2 near the mechanism is obtained by a second temperature sensor. Then, an amount for correcting an image-recording start position is obtained from a correction table based on the temperatures 1 and 2 and on a size of the printing plate precursor, and the number of drive pulses for correction corresponding to the obtained amount of correction is outputted to a drive motor of the mechanism.
摘要:
A laser exposure device at which alignment marks of a plate material on an exposure stage, which is moving in a direction opposite to a scanning direction, are read by a CCD camera mounted at a support gate, after which an imaging region, whose position is judged using the alignment marks, is exposed by a laser beam from a laser scanner. Here, a distance along the scanning direction from the CCD camera to the laser scanner is not less than a pitch of the alignment marks that are provided to respectively correspond to a trailing end and a leading end of the imaging region. According to this laser exposure device, even in a case in which a plurality of the imaging region is provided at a recording medium, an increase in a duration for forming images on the recording medium in accordance with an increase in imaging regions is prevented.

An image exposure apparatus whose installation area and height are reduced and which enables smooth conveying of a printing plate. The apparatus comprises a cassette accommodating portion for the accommodation of printing plates therein, wherein the printing plates are loaded so as to be inclined at a predetermined angle, preferably at an angle near 90°.
摘要:
For dividing an image and recording divided images on a photosensitive film with a plurality of laser beams, an auxiliary scanning speed is reduced in the vicinity of junctions between adjacent ones of the divided images to adjust the intervals between main scanning lines, and each of the main scanning lines is divided into divided main scanning lines in a main scanning direction, and the divided main scanning lines are formed separately in an auxiliary scanning direction. With such a correcting process, a high-quality image free of striped artifacts and inclination differences of main scanning lines can be recorded on the photosensitive film.
摘要:
The drum has a balancer disposed at both ends of a drum body around which a printing plate is wound, and with a rotating shaft rotatably supported by a supporting plate via an elastic support member of a shaft receiving member. When the rotating drum is rotated in a state in which the rotating drum is out of balance, the elastic support member is elastically deformed so that the rotating shaft rotates integrally with the rotating drum. Balance of the drum is restored by eccentric revolution of the balancers, whereby the rotating drum is rotated around a center of the rotating shaft. A recording head is mounted at a bracket that moves integrally with the rotating drum. Thus, the recording head continually opposes a fixed position at the rotating drum, and an appropriate image can be formed on a printing plate.
