A vibration control device of a vibration type motor stops motor driving when the actual driving speed, does not come close to a target speed though the frequency of a driving periodic signal is feedback-controlled to the target speed, to prevent an error when the driving circuit fails.

An image forming apparatus has a recording element array including plural recording elements, an image forming section for causing a relative movement between the recording element array and a recording medium, thereby to form an image, and a drive section for driving the recording element array based on image data. A duty control unit varies the recording duty of the recording elements according to the relative movement speed between the recording element array and the recording medium. In another version, an image forming apparatus has a recording element array including plural recording elements, an image forming unit that effects a relative movement between the recording element array and a recording medium, memory for storing image data, a drive unit for driving the recording element array based on the image data read from the memory and an inhibitor for selectively inhibiting the recording operation by the image read from the memory, according to the relative movement speed between the recording element array and the recording medium. In yet another version, an image forming apparatus has a recording element array including plural recording elements, an image forming unit for causing a relative movement between the recording element array and a recording medium, a smoothing unit for applying a smoothing process to the image data, according to the relative movement speed between the recording element array and the recording medium and drive means for driving the recording element array, based on the image data subjected to the smoothing process by the smoothing unit.

An image formation apparatus which records an image on a recording medium is provided. The apparatus has a recording element array head on which plural recording chips are arranged, plural recording elements being arrayed on the recording chip, a reference clock generation unit for generating a reference clock, a main scan sync signal generation unit for generating a main scan sync signal by dividing the reference clock into 2n1 (n1: positive number) parts, an input unit for raster inputting image data for one line in synchronism with the main scan sync signal, a drive clock generation unit for generating a drive clock by dividing the reference clock into 2n2 (n2: positive number) parts and a drive unit for driving the recording chips in synchronism with the drive clock.
摘要:
This invention relates to a driving control device for a vibration wave motor. A periodic change in frequency of a driving periodic signal is detected during driving of the motor, a frequency corresponding to the detected change is set as a lower limit value, and the driving frequency is controlled not to drop below the lower limit value, thereby preventing the motor from abruptly stopping due to a motor load drift.
摘要:
In a control device for a vibration wave motor, in the case where the device executes an operation involving a large variation in the load while the motor is controlled at a target speed by the driving frequency using a feedback system, such feedback control is inhibited or the response of the feedback control is restricted in order to avoid the drawback resulting from feedback control at the time of generation of the variation in the load.

A loosening fan provided in an air blowing unit blows at sheets stacked on a tray to loosen the sheets. When, during a sheet feeding operation, a multi-feed detection unit detects a multi-feed condition, the loosening fan is controlled such that an air pressure that enables the sheets to be loosened is obtainable. Therefore, the occurrence of multi-feed conditions can be reduced.
摘要:
To determine an area of a whiteout applied on an original, an area in which an output of a CCD is saturated is determined to be a correction trace area based on image read in an exposure-down having exposure reduced from a normal exposure amount. Correction trace information obtained by determining and detecting the correction trace area is correlated with image data to be stored as attribute information of an image file. When the image file is displayed on a PC screen, the correction trace area of an original image read based on position information of a correction trace contained in the attribute information transferred from an image reading apparatus is highlighted.
