【Example】

-First Embodiment- A first embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 1 shows the configuration of a data imprinting apparatus according to the present invention. Reference numeral 1 is a camera body, 2 is a back cover that is openably and closably provided on the back surface of the camera body 1, and 3 is a taking lens barrel provided on the front surface of the camera body 1. The film FI pulled out from the film cartridge FC loaded in the camera body 1
Is wound around the winding shaft SP through an aperture (not shown).

A pressure plate 4 for defining the position of the film FI in the thickness direction is attached to the inner surface of the back cover 2, and the pressure plate 4 is used for optically imprinting photographing data concerning each photographing frame on the film FI. The LED light emitting unit 10 is fixed. The photographed data to be imprinted includes, for example, shutter speed, aperture value, photographing distance, film sensitivity, type of lens used, focal length, exposure mode, photometric mode, and number of frames. The details of the LED light emitting unit 10 will be described later, but in this embodiment, the LED light emitting unit 1 is used.
With 0, the photographing data relating to each photographing frame is collectively printed in the exposure area of the final photographing frame.

The CPU 21 provided in the camera body 1 has a memory 22 for storing photographed data, a winding device 23 for winding a film FI by rotating a winding shaft SP by a stepping motor or a DC motor, and the above-mentioned. A rewind device 24 for rewinding the film FI by rotating the spool shaft of the cartridge FC with a motor, and a take-up shaft SP.
The rotation speed detector 25 for detecting the rotation speed of the
A film feed speed detector 26 for detecting the film feed speed from the output of the photosensor for detecting the perforation of I.
And a counter 2 for counting the number of film frames of the film FI
7 and an LED light emitting circuit 28 for turning on / off the LED in the LED light emitting unit 10 are connected. Reference numeral 29 is an erase button for clearing the data stored in the memory 22.

2 and 3, the LED light emitting unit 10 is shown.
The configuration of will be described. The LED light emitting unit 10 is
Blue / green / red L arranged in the film feeding direction (X direction)
It has ED columns 11B, 11G, 11R, and each LED column is
LEDs 11b, 11 that emit blue, green, and red light, respectively
A plurality of g and 11r are arranged at equal intervals in a direction (Y direction) orthogonal to the X direction. Each LED is as shown in FIG.
It is mounted on the substrate 13 held in the case 12. 14
Is a lens plate on which a plurality of focus lens portions 14a corresponding to the number of LEDs are formed, and each lens portion 14a
Is fixed to the case 12 so as to be positioned in front of the. In addition,
In the drawing, each LED row is composed of about 10 LEDs for convenience, but in reality, it is composed of a plurality of smaller LEDs arranged.

When a plurality of LEDs are emitted when the final shooting frame of the film FI faces the LED light emitting unit 10, the film FI is exposed by the irradiation light, and a plurality of dots are recorded in the exposure area of the final shooting frame. To be done. The position of the recorded dots depends on the LEDs that are illuminated and the film feed situation. Reference numeral 31 in FIG. 2 indicates each divided area when one exposure area is divided into a plurality of matrix areas,
The number of divisions in the Y direction is equal to the number of LEDs in each LED row, and the pitch between adjacent regions 31 is L in the vertical and horizontal directions.
It is equal to the pitch d between EDs (FIG. 3). That is, one dot is imprinted on each divided area by the LED. Therefore, by controlling the light emission of the LED at the time of feeding the film, it is possible to form a character with a plurality of dots as shown in FIG. 4, for example. Hereinafter, a group of divided areas that are continuous in the Y direction is called a line.

Next, the operation of the embodiment will be described. When the film cartridge FC is loaded into the camera body 1, CP
The winding device 23 is driven by U21, and the film FI is wound around the winding shaft SP. At this time the film FI
Are fed in the X direction. First by the rotation speed detector 25
Shooting is permitted when it is detected that the first frame faces the aperture, and thereafter, shooting and one frame winding of the film FI are performed each time a release operation is performed. For each shooting of each shooting frame, shooting data relating to that frame is stored in the memory 22. The type of data to be stored, that is, the type of data to be imprinted on the film is predetermined, and in the camera of this embodiment, it is assumed that several types of data including the shutter speed and the aperture value are imprinted. CPU2
1 sets the color of each data to be imprinted for each type of data. This may be set, for example, according to a user's instruction, or may be set in advance in the CPU 21.

When the CPU 21 monitors the count value of the counter 27 and determines that the shooting of the frame immediately before the last frame (35th frame in the case of a 36-sheet film) is finished, the CPU 21 stores it in the memory before winding one frame. The photographing data stored in 22 is transferred to the LED light emitting circuit 28, and the photographing data of all the frames is imprinted on the exposure region of the final photographing frame (the 36th frame in the case of 36 film) with the winding of one frame. The details of the imprinting operation will be described below.

First, the film FI 1 is taken up by the winding device 23.
Start winding the pieces. In this embodiment, since the imprint is performed while the film is being fed, it is necessary to feed the film at a constant speed in order to accurately imprint the photographed data. Therefore, when the final photographing frame is wound, the CPU 21 controls the winding device 23 while monitoring the film feeding speed which is the detection output of the feeding speed detector 26. The film feeding speed can be measured from the number of rotations of the winding shaft SP, which is the detection output of the rotation number detector 25, but the radius of the winding shaft SP including the thickness of the film FI changes depending on the film feeding state. Considering this, accurate speed detection is difficult. Therefore, in this embodiment, the output of the feeding speed detector 26 that detects the perforation of the film FI and measures the film feeding speed is used.

Assuming that the pitch between adjacent LEDs in the X direction is d, and the shortest time from when the LEDs are turned on to when the LEDs are turned off and then turned on is t, the film feeding speed V is V It is necessary to satisfy ≦ d / t.

After the winding of the final photographing frame is started, it is detected which line (FIG. 2) of the final photographing frame faces the blue LED row 11B. This may be determined by, for example, the time from the start of winding the last frame. Hereinafter, the lines of the final photographing frame will be referred to as the first line, the second line, ... The nth line in order from the side close to the winding axis SP to the film front end side.

When it is detected that the first line faces the blue LED row 12, one of the blue LEDs 11b forming the blue LED row 11B, which is necessary for forming the data, passes through the LED light emitting circuit 28. Is turned on. LED 11b
A dot is formed in a predetermined area of the first line by the light from. When the film FI moves in the X direction by one line, the green LED row 11G faces the first line and the blue LED row 11B faces the second line. When this state is detected, the CPU 21 causes the blue LED 11b and the green LED to
A predetermined one of 11 g is turned on. At this time, the first
In the line, the light of the green LED 11g may be overlapped and applied to the dot previously formed by the blue LED 11b.

When the film FI is further moved by one line in the X direction, the red LED row 11R is changed to the second line on the first line.
The green LED row 11G faces the line, and the blue LED row 11B faces the third line. When this condition is detected,
The CPU 21 turns on a predetermined one of the blue LED 11b, the green LED 11g, and the red LED 11r. In this way, when the film FI moves line by line, the LED
The LED of each LED row is selected by the light emitting circuit 28 to emit light, and the photographed data is imprinted.

FIG. 4 shows an example in which the number "1" is printed in purple by the LED light emitting unit 10. Since nothing is recorded from the 1st line to the 12th line of the film, none of the LEDs emit light. When the blue LED row 11B row faces the 13th line, the 12th blue L from the top
The ED 11b is caused to emit light to form a blue dot D1.
The film FI is fed by one line, the blue LED row 11b is on the 14th line, and the green LED row 1 is on the 13th line.
When 1G faces each other, the eleventh and twelfth blue LEDs 11b from the top emit light, and blue dots D2, D3
To form. At this time, the green LED 11g and the red LED
11r does not emit light.

The film FI is further fed by one line, the blue LED row 11B is on the 15th line, the green LED row 11G is on the 14th line, and the red LED row 1 is on the 13th line.
When the 1Rs face each other, the tenth, eleventh, twenty-third, and twenty-fourth blue LEDs 11b from the top emit light, and the twelfth red LED 11r from the top emits light. At this time, in the 13th line, the 12th area from the top, that is, the area where the blue dots D1 are formed, is overlapped with the red light, and as a result, purple dots are formed. In this way, by sequentially superposing the irradiation lights of the blue LED 11b and the red LED 11r up to the 22nd line, the purple character "1" is imprinted. By adjusting the exposure time of each LED 11b, 11r, purple of different colors can be expressed.

By repeating the above operation while the final photographic frame is being wound, the data of each photographic frame is printed in the exposure area of the photographic frame as shown in FIG. 5, for example. In the above, an example of imprinting data in purple was shown,
Data can be imprinted in various colors by using lights of blue, green, and red LEDs independently or by using two colors or three colors in combination. For example, the piece number is purple,
If the shutter speed is changed depending on each data item such as green or the color is changed for each frame, it is easier to see and confirm the data as compared with the case of imprinting with a single color. Further, in this embodiment, since the photographing data relating to each photographing frame is collectively printed on the last frame of the film FI,
For example, when inputting these photographing data to a personal computer or the like provided separately, the input work is easy.

When the imprinting of the photographing data is completed,
The CPU 21 controls the cartridge F via the rewinding device 24.
The spool shaft of C is rotated to rewind the film FI into the cartridge. At this time, the film FI is fed in the direction opposite to the X direction. After the film rewind is complete,
The back cover 2 is opened, the cartridge FC is taken out, and the film in the taken out cartridge FC is used for development and printing in a laboratory or the like. The shooting data imprinted on the film FI can be viewed by printing the film FI. When the delete button 29 shown in FIG. 1 is operated, the CPU 21 deletes the shooting data for one film stored in the memory 22.

In the structure of the above embodiment, the LED is the light emitting portion, the LED light emitting circuit 28 is the photosensitive means, and the hoisting device 2 is used.
3 constitutes a moving means, the CPU 21 constitutes a setting means, a control means and a reading means, and the memory 22 constitutes a storage means.

On the other hand, the host computer 53 and the CPU 2
Even if 1 is not connected, after the film FI is developed, the photographed image of the film FI and the photographed data are taken into the host computer 53 using a flat bed scanner, a film scanner or the like, and edited by the host computer 53. (See FIG. 8). An editing example using the host computer 53 and the scanner is shown below.

A flat bed scanner scans several photographed frames of the developed film and reads them, for example, as shown in FIG.
Displayed on the monitor screen of the host computer 53 as shown in FIG. At this time, if the frame (final photographed frame) on which the photographed data is copied is read at the same time, it becomes a material for searching each frame. Further, it is also possible to perform processing such as cutting and pasting desired information among a plurality of types of photographing data of each frame for each frame. FIG. 10 shows an example in which the image of each frame of the film is read and displayed frame by frame by a film scanner or the like. In this example, a frame on which shooting data is copied is displayed in one window, and based on this shooting data, one of the frames is searched and called in another window, and processing such as cutting and pasting shooting data is performed. I do. Incidentally, only the photographed image of the film may be read by the scanner and the photographed data may be fetched from the external input / output terminal 51 as shown in FIG.

On the contrary to the case where the CPU 21 of the camera outputs the photographing data to the host computer 53, the data to be added to the photographing data or completely different data can be inputted from the host computer 53 to the camera. In this case, when the user transfers the data created by the host computer 53 to the CPU 21 via the external input / output terminal 51, the CPU 21 stores the transferred data in the memory 22. When these data are printed on the film, the data in the memory 22 is sent to the LED light emitting circuit 28, and the LED light emitting unit 10 is drive-controlled as described above. In addition to the characters created by the host computer 53, another original can be read by the scanner into the host computer 53, transferred to a memory through an external input / output terminal, and printed on a film.

[Third Embodiment] FIG. 11 shows a control system of a camera according to a third embodiment of the present invention. The same parts as those in FIG. 1 are designated by the same reference numerals.
Reference numeral 61 denotes a photographic data selection device (data selection means) for selecting photographic data to be imprinted on the film from a plurality of types of photographic data, and includes a liquid crystal display, LEDs, push button switches and the like. When the push button switch is operated (data selection command is issued) prior to data imprinting, the selection device 61 is operated according to the operation.

It is sent to the D light emission circuit 28. This allows desired information to be imprinted on the film. The liquid crystal display is
Displays the currently selected shooting data item.

In addition to data items, the photographing data selection device 61 uses characters, background colors, recording methods such as vertical writing and horizontal writing,
Also, the data recording location (for example, the exposure area of the final shooting frame)
Can be selected. The selection result is CPU2
The data is stored in the memory 22 via 1 and is imprinted according to the stored contents at the time of imprinting.

The structure of the LED light emitting unit is not limited to the embodiment. For example, as shown in FIG.
Each of them is provided and one of them is shifted in the Y direction by a half dot, or a plurality of LED light emitting units 10 are relatively shifted by a half dot as shown in FIG. 13, or as shown in FIG.
The recording density can be improved by arranging the LED rows 11B, 11G, and 11R in a tilted manner. Further, as shown in FIG. 15, the LED light emitting unit 10 may be arranged on the emulsion side of the film. Instead of the configuration of FIG. 3, a sealing mold 71 in which an LED and a focus lens are integrally incorporated as shown in FIG. 16 may be used. Furthermore, the order of arrangement of the LED columns does not necessarily have to be blue, green and red, and the L
The ED may have two colors or four or more colors.

The arrangement position of the LED light emitting unit is not limited to the embodiment. For example, as shown in FIGS. 17 and 18, if the LED light emitting unit 10 is arranged close to the cartridge FC or the winding shaft SP without being incorporated in the pressure plate, a region closer to the leading end than the leading frame of the film, or from the last frame.

In the above, the example in which the photographing data of each frame is imprinted in the exposure area of the last frame of the film has been shown, but the imprinting location is not limited to the last frame. For example, in the case of a prewind camera, the shooting data of each shooting frame may be imprinted within the exposure area of the leading shooting frame. Further, for example, the photographing data of the first frame to the ninth frame are collectively printed in the exposure area of the tenth frame, and the photographing data of the eleventh frame to the first frame are recorded.
A method of collectively capturing the image data of the 9th frame on the 20th frame may be used. The timing of imprinting is not limited to the time of winding the film, and may be the time of rewinding. The content to be imprinted is not limited to the photographing data of each photographing frame, and may be information for identifying the film (information unique to the film).

The film may be fed at a high speed to a line where imprinting is not performed. Further, the film feeding may be stopped for each line to be imprinted and imprinting may be performed. Further, in the above, the data in the memory 22 is erased in response to the operation of the erase button 29, but the data may be erased in response to the opening of the back cover 2. In this case, the clasp 30 (FIG. 1) for opening the back cover 2 and the camera body 1
A switch may be configured with the side hooking portion so that the CPU 21 can recognize whether or not the hook 30 is hooked.

It is possible to eliminate the inconvenience of being stuck. In addition, since data can be recorded in a plurality of colors, it does not become difficult to see even if there are multiple types of data to be imprinted, as in the case of imprinting photographic data for each photographic frame of a film. If the data to be printed on the film is composed of a plurality of dots formed on the film by the light emission of the plurality of light emitting portions, various information can be printed using a plurality of types of characters and marks. If the irradiation light of two or more colors can be applied to the same portion of the film, it is possible to imprint with a plurality of colors other than the irradiation light of the light emitting unit. If the data to be imprinted can be selected from a plurality of types of data items, only the information necessary for the user can be imprinted. According to the invention of claim 7, the photographing data of a plurality of other photographing frames are imprinted within the exposure area of a predetermined photographing frame of the film, which is convenient when manually inputting these data into a personal computer or the like. Is. In addition, by outputting the data to the external device and inputting the data from the external device as the data for imprinting, various data editing work can be performed using the external device.
