Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen aufklappbaren tragbaren Computer ("Laptop") mit integriertem Drucker.The invention relates to a foldable portable Computer ("laptop") with integrated printer.

Derartige Rechner sind bekannt und auch schon erhält­ lich (z.B. von IBM); sie haben allerdings Nachteile, die eine leichte Handhabung erschweren. So ist beim erwähnten IBM-Laptop der Drucker hinter dem klappbaren Bildschirm angebracht, so daß dieser beim Drucken die Sicht auf den Drucker behindert.Such computers are known and have already been obtained Lich (e.g. from IBM); but they have drawbacks which make easy handling difficult. This is the case with mentioned IBM laptop the printer behind the foldable Screen attached so that this when printing the Obstructed view of the printer.

Erfindungsgemäße Aufgabe war es daher, einen Laptop- Computer zu schaffen, der den Druckvorgang mit unver­ ändertem Rechner in benutzerfreundlicher Weise gestat­ tet.The task according to the invention was therefore to create a laptop To create computer that the printing process with un changed calculator in a user-friendly manner tet.

Diese Aufgabe wird dadurch gelöst, daß in einem Ge­ häuse ein sogenannter Flachbettdrucker in äußerst flacher Bauweise zusammen mit der Computer-Funktions­ einheit unter der Tastatur des Laptop-Computers mon­ tiert ist.This object is achieved in that in a Ge housing a so-called flatbed printer in extreme flat design together with the computer function unit under the keyboard of the laptop computer mon is.

Das bedeutet, daß das Papier (wie beim Flachbettdruc­ ker üblich) von vorn (unter der Tastatur) eingeführt wird und wahlweise hinten oder durch Rückwärtstrans­ port nach dem Drucken vorn wieder herauskommt.This means that the paper (as with the flatbed printer ker usual) introduced from the front (under the keyboard) and either at the back or through backward transfer port comes out again after printing.

Das Gehäuses ist in besonders vorteilhafter Ausge­ staltung der Erfindung in Modulbauweise so konstru­ iert, daß die Verbindung zwischen Computer- und Druc­ kermodul durch Zusammenstecken erfolgt. So kann der Laptop auch ohne Drucker benutzt werden und das Druc­ kermodul ist für Wartung besonders leicht zugänglich (Fig. 1).The housing is designed in a particularly advantageous embodiment of the invention in modular construction so that the connection between the computer and printer module is made by plugging together. So the laptop can also be used without a printer and the printer module is particularly easy to access for maintenance ( Fig. 1).

In anderer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sind die beiden Modulbausteine in klappbarer Form fest miteinander verbunden. Das heißt, daß der Laptop-Teil für Wartung etc. hochgeklappt werden kann, obwohl hier eine feste unlösbare Verbindung zwischen den beiden Funktionsein­ heiten besteht.In another embodiment of the invention, the two are Module blocks in a foldable form firmly together connected. That means the laptop part for maintenance etc. can be folded up, although here a fixed one indissoluble connection between the two functions units.

Der Betrieb des erfindungsgemäßen Gerätes erfolgt über aufladbare Akkus und/oder ein Netzteil. Die Elektronik und die Druckverfahren (Nadel-, Laser-, Tintenstrahl- Drucker etc.) werden entsprechend dem Stand der Tech­ nik eingesetzt.The device according to the invention is operated via rechargeable batteries and / or a power supply. The Electronic and the printing processes (needle, laser, inkjet Printers etc.) are manufactured according to the state of the art nik used.
