Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to an improvement of a manuscript table attached to a typewriter or the like.

[Conventional technology]

In general, typewriters, word processors, and computers (hereinafter referred to as ``typewriters, etc.'') are used to store manuscripts, data, etc. (hereinafter referred to as ``manuscripts, etc.'')
When typing, a document table is often used to make it easier for the operator to view the document.

When using a document table, hold the document, etc. on the document table with a magnet piece, a clip, etc., and apply the magnetic bar to the document, etc., and manually press the magnetic bar at each line break. The driving operation is performed while sliding. That is, when typing a manuscript into a typewriter, etc., the user must alternately look at the typewriter's board or the display of a word processor or computer and the manuscript, making it difficult to see where the line is being typed. However, the above-mentioned problems can be prevented by applying a magnetic bar to a document or the like in order to check the rows of the document. Also, recently, an electric document table has been proposed which automatically slides an indicating member such as the above-mentioned magnetic bar for confirming the driving rows.

On the other hand, when the document table is not used, that is, when there is no document table, the document is usually placed on a desk and the typing operation is performed while applying a ruler to the document.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

However, in the case of the above-mentioned manuscript table, by sliding the magnetic bar by hand,
The problem is that alignment is very troublesome. In other words, in addition to the need to slide the magnetic bar while aligning it so that it does not become diagonal when starting a new line, when the left and right pages are lined up like a double-page spread, after the last line has been typed, the next This method has a problem in that it is necessary to move the magnetic bar to the first line again in order to input a page.

In addition to the above-mentioned problems, when placing a manuscript, etc. on a desk and typing while applying a ruler, there is a problem in that a space is required to place the manuscript, etc. on the desk. .

Furthermore, an electric document table has a problem in that it has a complicated structure and is also expensive.

The present invention is an attempt to improve the above-mentioned problems, and the problem to be solved lies in making it possible to obtain a document table that is simple in structure and easy to use. That is, it is characterized in that two indicating members for instructing the driving row are provided, and both indicating members are interlocked in a reciprocating manner,
The specific means and effects are as follows.

[Means for solving problems]

Transmission threads are stretched endlessly in a substantially U-shape via rollers along both left and right edges and the bottom edge of the mounting plate, which is formed into a rectangular shape. Two parallel indicating members are attached so as to be reciprocally movable so as to move in opposite directions.

[Effect]

By setting one of the two pointing members along the row to be driven, a state can be obtained in which the pointing member indicates the row to be driven. With one of the indicating members set in the driving row in this way, after the driving operation is completed, by moving the same pointing member to the next row to be driven, for example in the line feed direction, the same pointing member can be used to start a new driving line. While a state is obtained in which a line is indicated, a state in which the other indicating member moves in conjunction with the above-mentioned indicating member, for example, in a direction opposite to the line feed direction, is obtained. Then, while one pointing member points to the last line (end of sentence), the other pointing member points to the first input line (beginning of sentence).

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, specific embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the illustrative drawings.

1 indicates a document table.

2 is a mounting plate constituting the document table 1;
The mounting plate 2 is formed into a horizontally long rectangular shape. A fulcrum roller 3, which is formed with a groove 3' at the upper end of the mounting plate 2, and a fulcrum roller 4, which is also formed with a groove 4', are pivoted toward both ends in the width direction, respectively. be done. Further, at the lower end of the mounting plate 2, an outer tension roller 5 and a thread winding wheel 6 are respectively pivotally supported at both ends in the width direction so as to correspond to the fulcrum rollers 3 and 4. More specifically, the outer tension roller 5 is the fulcrum roller 3
Similarly, the thread winding wheel 6 is formed with a groove 5' and is installed at the left end in correspondence with the roller 3, while the thread winding wheel 6 has a knob 6A formed on the head and a groove 5' at the back of the knob 6A. It consists of a thread winding part 6B formed with a smaller diameter than the knob part 6A, and is arranged at the right end in correspondence with the fulcrum roller 4. Further, an inner tension roller 7, which has a groove 7' on the diagonally upper right side of the outer tension roller 5, is pivotally supported with a slight gap between it and the outer tension roller 5. On the other hand, an inner tension roller 8, which also has a groove 8', is pivotally supported diagonally above and to the left of the thread winding wheel 6.

Numeral 9 is a bolt for pivotally supporting each of the rollers 3, 4, 5, 7, and 8, and the bolt 9 is provided to pass through a through hole 10 formed in the mounting plate 2. Nuts 11, 11 are screwed onto the bolts 9 at positions on both the front and back surfaces of the mounting plate 2.

Reference numeral 12 denotes a bolt for pivotally supporting the thread winding wheel 6, and the bolt 12, like the bolt 9, is fixed to the mounting plate 2 by nuts 11, 11.

13 are two indicating threads (indicating members) 1 which will be described later.
A power transmission thread for reciprocating 4 and 15,
The transmission thread 13 is stretched across the rollers 3, 4, 5, 7, 8 and the thread winding wheel 6 in a substantially U-shape. More specifically, the transmission thread 13 is connected to the fulcrum roller 4.
The thread wheel 6 extends downward from the groove 4' of the
It goes around the thread winding part 6B of the thread winding wheel 6, reaches the groove part 3' of the fulcrum roller 3 via the outer tension roller 5, turns back from the fulcrum roller 3, and reaches the inner tension roller 7 from the fulcrum roller 3. and the inner tension roller 8 to reach the fulcrum roller 4 again.

Reference numerals 14 and 15 indicate indicator threads (instruction members) for instructing the above-mentioned driving rows, and both indicator threads 14 and 15 are stretched in parallel across both width directions of the mounting plate 2 between the transmission threads 13. . More specifically, one end of the indicator thread 14 is connected to the transmission thread 13 stretched between the fulcrum roller 3 and the inner tension roller 7, while the other end of the indicator thread 14 is connected to the transmission thread 13 stretched between the fulcrum roller 3 and the inner tension roller 7. It is connected to a power transmission thread 13 stretched between the fulcrum roller 4 and the thread winding wheel 6 through a power transmission thread 13 stretched between the fulcrum rollers 8 and 6. Further, one end of the indicator thread 15 is connected to the transmission thread 13 which is stretched between the fulcrum roller 3 and the outer tension roller 5 with an appropriate gap between the indicator thread 14 and the indicator thread 14. The other end of the thread 15 extends parallel to the indicator thread 14, and its tip straddles the transmission thread 13 stretched between the fulcrum roller 3 and the inner tension roller 7, and connects the fulcrum roller 4 and the inner tension roller 7. It is connected to a power transmission thread 13 that is stretched between the transmission rollers 8. That is, the indicator thread 14 and the indicator thread 15 are provided such that the indicator thread 14 is moved to a position near the upper end of the mounting plate 2 and the indicator thread 15 is located near the bottom end of the mounting plate 2. .

Reference numeral 16 indicates a cursor that is slidably attached along the indicator threads 14 and 15.

Next, its effect will be explained.

With a document set on the mounting plate 2 of the document table 1 via a clip (not shown) or the like, by rotating the knob 6A of the thread winding wheel 6, the transmission thread 13 that connects the indicator thread 14 is connected to the same thread. It can be wound up by the thread winding wheel 6, and thereby the pointing thread 14 can be moved to an arbitrary line position on the document or the like. By moving the indicator thread 14 to the row position to be driven in this way, a state is obtained in which the indicator thread 14 indicates the row to be driven.
That is, a state is obtained in which the pointing thread 14 extends in an underlined manner along the driving row. By setting the indicator thread 14 at the row to be driven in this way, the row to be driven can be easily identified. Further, as the indicator thread 14 set in the printing line is successively line-feeded along the document, a state is obtained in which the other indicator thread 15 moves in the opposite direction to the indicator thread 14. That is, after the typing operation on the typewriter or the like in the above-mentioned typing line is completed, by rotating the thread winding wheel 6 in the line feed direction, the indicating thread 14 moves to the next line position and instructs a new typing line. On the other hand, a state is obtained in which the other indicator thread 15 moves in the opposite direction to the indicator thread 14 (in the direction opposite to the line feed direction). As the indicating thread 14 is sequentially moved toward the end of the sentence in this manner, a state is obtained in which the indicating thread 15 moves toward the beginning of the sentence in conjunction with the indicating thread 14. Then, in a state where the indicating thread 14 indicates the end of the sentence, a state is obtained in which the indicating thread 15 indicates the beginning of the sentence, and on the next page, the indicating thread 1
5 can be used. That is, the indicating thread 15 is provided so as to be ready to indicate the beginning of the next page.

Furthermore, by sliding the cursor 16 along the pointing threads 14 and 15, tab designation can be made. That is, by setting the cursor 16 at both ends of the column to be typed in, such as a table-format text, it is possible to specify only an arbitrary column.

Furthermore, by stretching the power transmission thread 13 in a substantially U-shape as described above, the indicating member can be connected to the power transmission thread 13 in a state where both ends are supported. That is, the supporting threads 14, 1 serve as indicating members.
A flexible body such as 5 can be used.

In this embodiment, the indicating member is the indicating thread 1.
4 and 15, but the ruler is not limited to this, and for example, a ruler formed in the shape of a long strip may also be used. When using a ruler as an indicating member in this manner, the power transmission thread 13 can be stretched between one fulcrum roller and the thread winding wheel 6, and the ruler can be connected to the power transmission thread 13 in a cantilevered manner. . By color-coding the two indicating members as appropriate, they can be provided for easy identification. Further, the transmission thread 13 may be a thin belt. The mounting position of the thread winding wheel 6 is not limited to the above-mentioned position, but can be set at any position on the power transmission thread 13, such as an intermediate position between the fulcrum roller 3 and the outer tension roller 5. . Furthermore, the document table 1 can be used for either vertically or horizontally written documents by changing the direction in which it is attached to a typewriter or the like.

[Effect of idea]

The present invention is constructed as described above.
By providing the indicating member for instructing the typing row as described above, it has become possible to easily identify the typing row using the pointing member.

In particular, in the present invention, two indicating members are provided in parallel on the mounting plate, and both indicating members are movable reciprocally so as to interlock and move in opposite directions along a direction perpendicular to the indicating members. By arranging one of the indicating members to indicate the end of a sentence, the other indicating member can move in the opposite direction to indicate the beginning of a sentence. This made it unnecessary to move the pointing member to the beginning of the sentence every time a page was changed.

In the present invention, by configuring the document as described above, it has become possible to obtain a document table that has a simple structure and is easy to use.
