摘要:
A printing or copying system in which ink is transferred from an ink-bearing medium to a printing medium through the use of ultrasonics. The ink-bearing medium may be an ink ribbon, carbon paper or the like which is in contact with a printing medium such as paper. Ultrasonic energy is applied to the ink-bearing medium through transmission fibers, wires or bundles thereof, causing the viscosity of the ink to be reduced due to the ultrasonic vibrations and conversion of the ultrasonic energy into heat such that the ink is transferred to the printing medium. Multi-copy capability is achieved by having alternate layers of carbon paper or the like in contact with the paper.

A magnetic storage supplies binary input signals representing characters and a synchronizing signal. The binary input signals cause the intensity of the beam in a cathode ray tube to change from a first to a second intensity value. The beam is deflected over predetermined areas on the screen of the cathode ray tube by the synchronizing signal. If a beam of the second intensity value impinges upon a given area a visual output signal is generated.

A tape printer which prints characters in the form of dots disposed in a 7 X 7 or 7 X 5 matrix has seven print elements which are arranged to be operated selectively to print one line across the tape at a time by pressing carbon paper against the tape. Each print element is provided by a projection from a pivotted member which is controlled by an associated electromagnet. These members and the electromagnets are arranged in such a way that false operation of a print element (when an adjacent print is operated) is minimised and so that the printing pressure exerted by all the print elements is approximately the same.

A device (1) suitable for marking a laboratory sample cassette (2) has a platen (6) with an aperture (7) and a cassette (2) is positioned so that a marking surface (3) of the cassette is aligned with the aperture (7). The device (1) also has a plurality of wires (9) with each wire (9) connected to a solenoid (11). An end (10) of each of the wires (9) is heated by a ceramic guide (12a) and selected ones of the heated wires (9) are oscillated once in a first direction (25) by their respective solenoids (11) to and from the aperture (7) to mark the marking surface (3). All the wires are then moved in a second direction transversely relative to the first direction (25) and selected wires are then oscillated once to mark the marking surface (3). This process is repeated until the required marking of the cassette marking surface (3) is completed.

A cover operation member (41) is movably attached to the base frame to selectively latch and unlatch a platen (21) attached on the cover frame. The cover operation member (41) is in contact with the head bracket (32) so that the thermal head (31) is separated from the platen (21).

A needle guide (5) is composed of a first guide wall (5a) and a second guide wall (5b) arranged at a distance x from each other. Each of these guide walls is formed with through holes through which needles penetrate and which extends parallel to the longitudinal direction of a needle bunch, the through holes of the first guide wall and the second guide wall for one needle is shifted from each other in the convergence direction of the needles with a shift amount δn determined by the distance x and a convergence angle θn of the needle.
摘要:
A motor control method and apparatus for stopping an object moved by a motor accurately at a predefined target position, shortening the time period required in stop control, in which the motor is driven at a first (high) speed up to a distance from the target position adequate for stop control and then is sequentially braked to a predetermined speed lower than the first speed, driven at a second (low) speed up to a distance from the target position equal to the stopping distance, and braked to a stop. The method and apparatus are used in a time recorder. An impact printing apparatus is also disclosed with printing pin actuation timing correction dependent upon scanning speed or platen shape, striking duration timing dependent upon scanning rate, or printing pin actuation timing dependent upon stored shift amounts.

In the wire dot printer head and wire dot printer of the present invention, a plurality of armatures are rockably mounted in positions corresponding to a plurality of cores. On the end face on the core side of a wire, a plurality of receiving members are provided. And a plurality of pressing members for pressing the armature to move away from the core are mounted in contact with these receiving members. The receiving member therefore can prevent the pressing member from damaging to break the armature.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for enhancing the quality of images printed by dot printers or dot displays are disclosed. Image irregularities caused by quantization are smoothed by using a set of rules to transform an initial pattern into an enhanced pattern for printing. The initial pattern may consist of a matrix of bits representing an image having X dots per inch along an intended direction of printing. An intermediate pattern is formed by replicating columns of bits from the initial pattern. Image enhancement rules are applied to the intermediate pattern to invert one or more bits in the intermediate pattern to create an enhanced pattern. The enhanced pattern is printed at n*X dots per inch along the direction of printing where n.gtoreq.1.
