[0003]
[Patent Document 1]
Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 5-43657 [0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
However, the copy board apparatus proposed in this publication does not consider the print display position, character size and font of the current date and time on the copy paper, and whether or not to display the current date and time on the whiteboard. This selection is not made, and the improvement of the accuracy of the calendar clock is not taken into consideration.
[0005]
The present invention has been made in view of the above points, and can freely select the print display position of the current time on the copy paper, the character size and the font, and whether or not to display the current time on the whiteboard. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a whiteboard with a time display function capable of improving the accuracy of a timer.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
In order to achieve the above object, a whiteboard with a time display function according to the present invention includes an entry surface 1, an entry surface reading unit 2, a current time display unit 3, a timer, an operation unit 4 for performing various settings, and a print output unit 5. A function for freely selecting and setting the print display position of the current time, the character size and the font by the operation unit 4, and the character time and the font selected and set by the print output unit 5 at the time of image printing. It is characterized in that it has a function of printing and displaying at a selected and set position of the copy paper 6.
[0007]
Further, in the above, the operation unit 4 has a function of selecting whether or not to display the current time on the entry surface 1.
In the above, the present invention has a function of receiving the current time from the radio timepiece and setting the timer.
[0008]
DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
Embodiments of the present invention will be described based on examples with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is an external view of a whiteboard with a time display function.
Reference numeral 1 denotes an entry surface on which characters, symbols, figures, etc. are entered. 2 is an entry surface reading unit that reads images such as characters, symbols, and figures written on the entry surface, and 3 is a current time display unit, for example, the current “year / month / day / hour / minute” is displayed. If it is not necessary, it can be selected not to display.
An operation unit 4 performs operations such as image reading / printing instructions, current time printing instructions, and various selection settings. A print output unit 5 prints and displays the current time together with the image, and outputs the copy paper 6.
[0009]
Various selection settings by the operation unit 4 include the current time print display position, character size / font selection setting, selection setting whether to display the current time on the writing surface 1, and the size of the copy paper 6. The selection setting etc. are included.
[0010]
FIG. 2 is a block diagram of a functional configuration of the whiteboard with a time display function.
21 includes a storage unit such as a ROM and a RAM and controls the entire whiteboard, 22 a communication function unit, 23 a print output unit 5 in FIG. 1, and 24 an operation unit 4 25 in FIG. 1 is a display surface driving unit, 26 is an entry surface reading unit 2 in FIG. 1, 27 is a main power supply unit, and 28 is a radio clock receiving unit.
Reference numeral 29 is a timer control unit, 30 is a timer setting unit, and 31 is a timer display unit, and these constitute a timer.
[0011]
Reference numeral 32 denotes a backup timer built-in power supply unit that is different from the main power supply unit 27, and continues the operation of the timer even after the main power supply unit 27 is disconnected. Reference numeral 33 denotes a time output unit for outputting time.
In the present invention, in order to improve the accuracy of the current time, the current time is received from the radio clock by the radio clock receiver 28, and the current time is set in the timer.
[0012]
In the above configuration, if the operation unit 4 selects and sets the print display position, the character size, and the font at the current time, and instructs to print the image, the image reading unit 2 reads the image on the writing surface 1, Together with the read image, the current time is printed and displayed in the selected character size and font, and the copy paper 6 is output from the print output unit 23.
[0013]
If the operation unit 4 is used to select whether or not to display the current time on the entry surface, the current time can be displayed or not displayed on the entry surface 1 as selected and set.
[0014]
FIG. 3 is a flowchart of processing when setting the time of the timer.
In step S30, the process starts. In step S31, it is determined whether the radio clock function is provided. If the radio clock function is provided, the time of the radio clock is received in step S32. If possible, the current time is set in the timer. If “N” in steps S31 and S33, the current time is manually set in step S34. In either case, the process ends in step S36.
[0015]
FIG. 4 is a flowchart of a process for designating the time display output position and the font and size of the time character to be displayed. The process starts in step S40, and in step S41, the time display output position and the time character font are displayed. The size is set, and the process ends in step S42.
[0016]
FIG. 5 is a flowchart of print output processing when printing on copy paper.
In step S50, the process starts. In step S51, it is determined whether to specify print output. If so, it is determined in step S52 whether the time stamp is printed.
If it is time stamp printing, the current time is read from the timer control unit 29 in step S53, and the time stamp information is set in the copy output buffer with the font and size of the character designated at the position designated in step S54.
In step S55, the contents of the copy output buffer are printed out, and the process ends in step S56.
[0017]
【The invention's effect】
According to the present invention, the print display position of the current time on the copy paper, the character size and the font can be freely selected and set and printed out on the copy paper, and whether or not the current time is displayed on the whiteboard. It is possible to select and set the current time, and since the current time is set by receiving the radio timepiece, the accuracy of the timer can be improved.
