摘要:
A laser beam recording method and apparatus are constituted for recording a continuous tone image by scanning a laser beam emitted by a semiconductor laser on a photosensitive material by a beam scanning system, and controlling a drive current for the semiconductor laser based on a light emission level instructing signal corresponding to an image signal, thereby to modulate the intensity of the laser beam. The laser beam intensity is detected, and a feedback signal corresponding to the detected intensity is fed back to the light emission level instructing signal. The light emission level instructing signal is corrected by a correction table to compensate for nonlinearity of drive current-optical output characteristics of the semiconductor laser and/or nonlinearity of incident light intensity-optical transmittance characteristics of an optical element of the beam scanning system, thereby to make linear the relationship between the intensity of the laser beam based on the corrected light emission level instructing signal and the uncorrected light emission level instructing signal.

A modulated light beam is deflected by a light deflector to scan a recording medium in a main scanning direction while the recording medium is being fed through a feed path in an auxiliary scanning direction. The light beam is applied during intervals before and after the recording medium is scanned by the modulated light beam. The light beam deflected during the intervals is detected across the feed path by a light detector. A scanning period in which the recording medium is scanned by the modulated light beam is detected based on a change in an output signal from the light detector due to the presence of the recording medium in the feed path between the light detector and the light deflector. The speed of feed of the recording medium in the auxiliary scanning direction by counting pulses of a reference clock signal during the detected scanning period.

A light beam recording apparatus modulates a light beam on the basis of image information and deflects the modulated light beam to scan a photosensitive recording material, thereby recording an image born by the image information on the recording material. The light beam recording apparatus is provided with a temperature sensor for detecting the temperature of the photosensitive recording material, and the quantity of light in the light beam is controlled on the basis of the output of the temperature sensor to compensate for change in the photosensitivity of the recording material with change in the temperature of the recording material.

A radiation image reader/recorder which mainly scans an optical beam (2, 22) emitted from the optical beam generation means of a laser light source (1, 21) via a light deflector (4, 25) with a frequency less than a main scanning frequency of 1 KHz, and which sub-scans at a sub-scanning density of more than 2.5 lines/mm, reading or recording a radiation image of continuous halftones. A cover (11, 29) is provided over at least at the optical passage between the means (1, 21) and the deflector (4, 25), thereby preventing the flow of air.
摘要:
A recording laser beam is intensity-modulated and is caused to scan a photosensitive recording material in both the main and sub scanning directions. The position of the recording laser beam on the recording material in the main scanning direction is detected and position reference pulses are generated each time the laser beam moves along the recording material in the main scanning direction by a predetermined constant distance. The recording laser beam is intensity-modulated only for a predetermined constant time interval between each pair of adjacent position reference pulses and is made essentially null for the rest time interval between the adjacent position reference pulses so that a unit area of the recording material corresponding to one picture element is exposed to the recording laser beam for a predetermined constant time interval regardless of fluctuation in the scanning speed of the recording laser beam.

A laser apparatus comprises a case, a laser tube positioned within the case, and a temperature control means for controlling the temperature of the atmosphere within the case. The temperature is controlled within the range of 35.degree. to 70.degree. C. The temperature control means is an air cooling means for generating air streams flowing from an air inlet formed in one side wall of the case to air outlets formed in the opposite side wall.

A light beam scanning apparatus includes a sweeping unit for sweeping a light beam in response to a first signal. A photodetector has a plurality of optical gratings arranged in an array in a predetermined direction in which the light beam is swept. The photodetector generates a second signal in response to a movement of the light beam along the grating array. A control circuit generates the first signal in response to the second signal. The control circuit detects a scan speed of the light beam based on the second signal, and adjusts the first signal in response to the detected scan speed to control the scan speed of the light beam such that the detected scan speed substantially coincides with a predetermined speed.
摘要:
A half-tone picture recording device with which half-tone images are accurately recorded. With the number of pulses applied during each sampling period being fixed, a light beam such as laser source is subjected to binary modulation and scanned on a photosensitive material to record the image of a half-tone picture thereon. Input signal levels representing the picture to be recorded are converted into a number of pulses for each sampling period by representing numbers of pulses to be applied during any particular sampling period with these values determined in accordance with output density levels with input signal levels, necessary exposure with output density levels, and pulse numbers with necessary exposure.
摘要:
An electric signal obtained by two-dimensionally scanning a color original image through a micro-color filter is processed to be adapted for recording a color image on a subtractive color photosensitive material. The electric signal contains signal components for three primary colors in time series. The electric signal is first converted to a digital signal by use of an A/D converter and then divided into three signals for the three colors. Each signal of different color is processed to have signal sections in which every section of the signal is based on the level of the adjacent section of the signal, each section corresponding to the picture element of the original color image. Then, the three signals are D/A converted to an analog signal, which is used for recording a color image on a subtractive photosensitive material.
