Fig. 4 B are an examples of the composition of laser control signal output section 34.Laser control signal is defeated Go out portion 34 and possess LS generative circuits 341, LS generative circuits 342, selector 343.LS generation electricity Road 341 is the circuit that laser control signal LS is generated based on timing signal TS1.LS generative circuits 342 be the circuit that laser control signal LS is generated based on timing signal TS2.Selector 343 be by The output of laser control signal output section 34 is converted into the output and LS generations of LS generative circuits 341 The circuit of any one in the output of circuit 342.Laser control signal output section 34 is by based on control The control in portion 40 processed makes selector 343 work, by the output in Laser Driven portion 232 (laser control Signal LS processed) it is converted into the output of LS generative circuits 341 and the output of LS generative circuits 342 Any one.
In addition, in the following description, by the signal generated based on timing signal TS1 (if Fig. 4 B example, is the output of LS generative circuits 341) it is referred to as signal A, it will be believed based on timing Number TS2 and the signal (being the output of LS generative circuits 342 if Fig. 4 B example) generated Referred to as signal B.Laser control signal output section 34 be at least by Printing Department 20 on sheet material S shape During image, the device that signal A is exported as laser control signal LS.
Fig. 4 A are returned to, measurement portion 35 is the circuit for the rotary speed for measuring polygon mirror.To signal The input of generating unit 33 has signal beam detection and clock signal clk.Signal generation portion 33 is based on light beam Signal and clock signal clk are detected, the laser detection interval of measuring beam sensor 237 is (that is, more Face reflector 233 rotates the time of a minute surface).Measurement portion 35 regard measurement result as rotary speed Information RS, the control unit 40 shown in Fig. 1 is exported.
In addition, clock signal clk is that the pulse spacing included in signal is detected for measuring beam The signal at (laser detection interval).Therefore, the clock signal for being input to measurement portion 35 can not also It must be the clock signal clk generated by oscillator 31.For example, being input to the clock of measurement portion 35 Signal can also be the pixel clock signal generated by signal generation portion 33.
Control unit 40 is the processing units such as processor.Control unit 40 is used as control image processing system 1 Control device function.Control unit 40 is stored in ROM (Read (not shown) by basis Only Memory, read-only storage) or RAM (Random Access Memory, are deposited at random Take device) program work, realization includes image multiplying power adjustment processing described later, at rotary speed change Various work including reason and timing signal exception processes.As shown in figure 1, control unit 40 passes through Worked according to said procedure, the function as judging part 41, output control part 42.For this A little work, image multiplying power adjustment processing, rotary speed exception processes and the timing signal that will be described below Described in the explanation of exception processes.
Next, the work to the image processing system 1 with this composition is illustrated.
If occurring the switching at surface and the back side, control unit 40 starts image multiplying power adjustment processing.Separately Outside, laser control signal output section 34 start image multiplying power adjustment processing when, using signal A as Laser control signal LS is exported.Signal A is the laser controlling letter generated based on timing signal TS1 Number.Hereinafter, the flow chart of reference picture 5, is illustrated to image multiplying power adjustment processing.
The instruction of output control part 42 laser control signal output section 34 is by the defeated of Laser Driven portion 232 Come from signal A and switch to signal B (ACT101).As described above, signal A is believed based on timing Number TS1 and the signal generated, signal B is the signal generated based on timing signal TS2.Laser If control signal output section 34 receives instruction from output control part 42, output is switched from signal A To signal B.
After the completion of switching, control unit 40 starts timing signal exception processes and rotary speed exception processes. Control unit 40 is timed signal exception processes and rotary speed exception processes (ACT102) simultaneously.
Hereinafter, timing signal exception processes and rotary speed exception processes are illustrated.First to timing Signal exception processes are illustrated.Timing signal exception processes are to be used to be given birth to by signal generation portion 32 Into timing signal TS1 be changed to meet the timing of the image multiplying power after adjustment.Fig. 6 is timing signal The flow chart of exception processes.
The command signal generating unit 32 of output control part 42 stops timing signal TS1 output (ACT201).If signal generation portion 32 receives instruction from output control part 42, stop timing and believe Number TS1 output.The timing signal TS1 that signal generation portion 32 stops can be pixel clock letter Number.
In addition, the output of laser control signal output section 34 switches to signal B from signal A.Letter Number B is based on timing signal TS2 and generated.Therefore, even if signal generation portion 32 stopped timing and believe Number TS1 output, laser control signal output section 34 also can continue to laser control signal LS's Output.As a result, Laser Driven portion 232 is during timing signal exception processes, it can also continue half Conductor laser LD driving.
Next, output control part 42 sets the frequency of pixel clock signal to signal generation portion 32 (ACT202).In addition, using horizontal-drive signal as eliminating fluctuation from signal beam detection Signal when, the frequency of horizontal-drive signal becomes automatically together with the change of the frequency of signal beam detection Change.Therefore, output control part 42 can not change the setting related to horizontal-drive signal, keep As former state.
After the completion of setting, the command signal generating unit 32 of output control part 42 restarts timing signal TS1 output (ACT203).If signal generation portion 32 is received from output control part 42 and instructed, Restart the generation of pixel clock signal.The frequency of pixel clock signal is set as in ACT203 Fixed frequency.Then, signal generation portion 32 believes the pixel clock signal generated and horizontal synchronization Number exported as timing signal TS1 to laser control signal output section 34.
Next, it is judged that portion 41 is timed the signal TS1 stable wait of output.Specifically, Judging part 41 judge since command signal generating unit 32 again timing signal TS1 output, if By time set in advance (ACT204).(ACT204 when without setting time:It is no), Judging part 41 repeats ACT204, untill by setting time.
If by setting time (ACT204:It is), then judging part 41 is adjusted to image multiplying power is performed The notifications stop timing signal exception processes (ACT205) of processing.After notice is finished, control unit 40 with regard to stop timing signal exception processes.
Next, being illustrated to rotary speed exception processes.Rotary speed exception processes are to be used to incite somebody to action The rotary speed of polygon mirror 233 is changed to meet the place of the rotary speed of the image multiplying power after adjustment Reason.Fig. 7 is the flow chart of rotary speed exception processes.
The instruction polygon mirror of output control part 42 drive division 231 changes the rotation of polygon mirror 233 Rotary speed (ACT301).If polygon mirror drive division 231 is received from output control part 42 and instructed, Then start the change of the rotary speed of polygon mirror 233.
Next, it is judged that portion 41 obtains rotating speed data RS (ACT302) from measurement portion 35. As described above, rotating speed data RS is the laser detection interval of beam sensor 237.
Next, it is judged that portion 41 is based on the rotating speed data RS obtained in ACT302, judge many Whether the rotary speed of face reflector 233 stablizes (ACT303).For example, judging part 41 judges Whether the rotary speed of the polygon mirror 233 shown in rotating speed data RS is set in advance Time, it is continued in velocity interval set in advance.(the ACT303 when rotary speed is unstable: It is no), judging part 41 repeats ACT302 and ACT303, untill rotary speed is stable.
(ACT303 after rotary speed is stable:It is), 41 pairs of judging part is performed at image multiplying power adjustment The notifications of reason terminate rotary speed exception processes (ACT304).After notice is finished, control unit 40 Terminate rotary speed exception processes.
The flow of Fig. 5 image multiplying power adjustment processing is returned to, judging part 41 judges that timing signal is changed Whether processing and rotary speed exception processes all terminate (ACT103).At the end of processing not (ACT103:It is no), judging part 41 repeats ACT103, untill processing all terminates.
(ACT103 at the end of processing:It is), the instruction laser control signal output of output control part 42 Portion 34 will switch to signal A (ACT104) to the output in Laser Driven portion 232 from signal B.Swash If optical control signal output section 34 receives from output control part 42 and instructed, output is cut from signal B Shift to signal A.Thus, exported from semiconductor laser LD and meet swashing for the image multiplying power after adjustment Light.
After the completion of switching, control unit 40 terminates image multiplying power adjustment processing.Control unit 40 is terminating to scheme After multiplying power adjustment processing, Printing Department 20 is controlled, image is formed on sheet material S.
According to present embodiment, because image processing system 1 possesses signal generation portion 33, therefore, figure As the adjustment of multiplying power is without for a long time.Assuming that signal processing part 30 does not have signal generation portion 33. In this case, laser control signal output section 34 changes the frequency of pixel clock in signal generation portion 32 During rate, from Anywhere can not all receive timing signal, therefore, it is impossible to export laser control signal LS.If laser control signal LS can not be exported, Laser Driven portion 232 cannot drive and partly lead Body laser LD.Consequently, it is possible to laser cannot be exported from semiconductor laser LD, therefore light Beam sensor 237 cannot detect laser.As a result, signal beam detection can not be output to measurement portion 35.Because measurement portion 35 measures the rotary speed of polygon mirror 233 based on signal beam detection, Therefore, measurement portion 35 can not export rotating speed data RS to control unit 40.Due to control unit 40 The rotary speed of polygon mirror 233 can not be learnt, it is thus impossible to carry out rotary speed exception processes. As a result, before the change of the frequency of the completion of laser control signal output section 34 pixel clock, control Portion 40 processed must not be not to wait for the execution of rotary speed exception processes.Consequently, it is possible to image processing system 1 Need to take a long time in the adjustment of image multiplying power.
But, the image processing system 1 of present embodiment is given birth to except generating timing signal TS1 signal Into beyond portion 32, it is also equipped with generating timing signal TS2 signal generation portion 33.Moreover, laser control Signal output portion 34 processed is during signal generation portion 32 stops timing signal TS1 supply, based on fixed When signal TS2 continue laser control signal LS output.Therefore, image processing system 1 is in pixel Also the change of the rotary speed of polygon mirror 233 can be performed during the frequency change of clock, therefore, It need not be taken a long time in the adjustment of image multiplying power.
(embodiment two)
