Abstract

SE DESCRIBE UN SISTEMA DE GRABACION DE IMAGENES PERFECCIONADO, PARA UN APARATO REGISTRADOR/IMPRESORA (10) DE CHORROS DE TINTA DE VARIOS COLORES. EL SISTEMA DE LA INVENCION COMPRENDE UN CONJUNTO DE CARRO (100) PARA RETENER MULTIPLES CARTUCHOS DE CHORROS DE TINTA (102, 104, 106, 108). CADA CARTUCHO (102, 104, 106, 108) TIENE UNA PLURALIDAD DE BOQUILLAS O TOBERAS (502, 504, 506, 508) ADAPTADAS PARA EXPULSAR TINTA, EN RESPUESTA A LA APLICACION A LAS MISMAS DE UNA SEÑAL ELECTRICA. SE DISPONE DE UN PRIMER MECANISMO (112), PARA DESPLAZAR EL CONJUNTO DEL CARRO (100) EN UN PRIMER EJE. SE DISPONE DE UN SEGUNDO MECANISMO (152) PARA DESPLAZAR MEDIOS DE IMPRESION (30) EN UN SEGUNDO EJE TRANSVERSAL RESPECTO AL PRIMER EJE. UN PRIMER CODIFICADOR (110) DE POSICIONES DETECTA LA POSICION DEL CONJUNTO DE CARRO (100) EN EL PRIMER EJE, Y UN SEGUNDO CODIFICADOR (156) DE POSICIONES DETECTA LA POSICION DEL CONJUNTO DE CARRO (100) EN EL SEGUNDO EJE. UN CIRCUITO DE CONTROL (300) PROPORCIONA SEÑALES ELECTRICAS QUE HACEN QUE LAS BOQUILLAS (502, 504, 506, 508), EN LOS CARTUCHOS DE CHORROS DE TINTA (102, 104, 106, 108), EXPULSEN TINTA SOBRE LOS MEDIOS (30), Y CREEN UNA IMAGEN SOBRE LOS MISMOS EN RESPUESTA A SEÑALES DE TEMPORIZACION. EL SISTEMA DE LA INVENCION INCLUYE UN MODULO DETECTOR (200), QUE DETECTA OPTICAMENTE LA IMAGEN Y PROPORCIONA UN CONJUNTO DE SEÑALES DETECTADAS EN RESPUESTA A LA MISMA. LAS SEÑALES DETECTADAS SE PROCESAN PARA PROPORCIONAR SEÑALES DE TEMPORIZACION RECOGIDAS. EN UNA VERSION PARTICULAR, SE GENERA UN PATRON DE PRUEBAS (40) E ILUMINA POR UNA FUENTE DE LUZ (232) EN EL MODULO SENSOR (200). LA FUENTE DE LUZ (232) TIENE ENERGIA ESPECTRAL EN LAS BANDAS DE COLORES DE INTERES. EL PATRON DE PRUEBAS (40) INCLUYE UNA PLURALIDAD DE IMAGENES QUE, CUANDO SE EXAMINAN POR EL MODULO SENSOR (200), PERMITEN QUE EL MODULO (200) GENERE UNA SEÑAL DE SALIDA DE UNA FRECUENCIA DADA. LA SEÑAL DE SALIDA SE MUESTREA Y PROCESA PARA PROPORCIONAR SEÑALES DE TEMPORIZACION CORREGIDAS, PARA ACTIVACION DE LAS BOQUILLAS. MEDIANTE LA DETECCION DE LA POSICION DEL PATRON, SE CORRIGE LA FALTA DE ALINEAMIENTO DE UN ESTILETE EN PARTICULAR.
