DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS A laptop personal computer according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

In FIG. 1, a personal computer 1 includes a printer 2
, A keyboard 4 serving as an input device detachably attached to the device body 3, and a display 5 serving as a display device also serving as a cover of the keyboard 4. The keyboard 4 is connected to the device main body 3 so that an input signal can be transmitted wirelessly, and is used while mounted on the device main body 3 by moving the keyboard 4 relatively to the device main body 3. And use in a state of being detached from the device main body 3 can be selectively performed. That is, since the paper passage (first paper passage) 52 is formed between the lower surface of the keyboard 4 and the upper surface of the device main body 3, the upper surface of the device main body 3 can be moved without interrupting the keyboard 4. In this case, the keyboard 4 can be detached from the apparatus main body 3, so that the upper surface of the paper path is released, and this paper path can be used as a paper feed guide for supplying recording paper.
The display 5 has a liquid crystal display body 6,
The display 5 is movable relative to the device main body 3 so as to be openable and closable at an intermediate portion of the device main body 3 via a hinge 7. Then, the display 5 during operation, which is in a normal use state, is used in an upright position, with the device slightly turned upside down, and the bottom surface of the device body contacts the installation location.

In the following description, the left side of FIG.
The right side is referred to as front and back, the upper side and the lower side are referred to as upper and lower sides, respectively, and the direction perpendicular to the paper is referred to as the width direction. The device main body 3 has a thin front half and a thick rear half, a keyboard 4 mounted on the front half, and a display 5 in a closed state on which the keyboard 5 is mounted. In addition, it functions as a cover of the keyboard 4 which is relatively movable, and has a rectangular shape as a whole. When the display 5 is in the closed state, the keyboard 4 is disposed between the display 5 and the surface 41 which is a flat portion of the device main body, and the display 5 protects the keyboard 4. As shown in FIG. 2, the front half of the first half has a flat portion 41 in the middle of the upper surface and a stepped portion 4 on both sides in the width direction.
2 and 42 have a “concave” -shaped cross-sectional shape with the middle depressed as a whole, and form a concave portion including the surface 41 on which the recording paper P is set. The keyboard 4 is mounted on the stepped portions 42, 42, and in a state where the keyboard 4 is
A gap 43 is formed between a flat portion 41 substantially parallel to the bottom surface of the keyboard 4 and the lower surface of the keyboard 4, and this bottom surface contacts the installation location in a normal use state. The gap 43 can be used as a paper path with the front end of the keyboard 4 as a paper feed port during printing. In the present embodiment, the keyboard 4 is removed so that the flat portion 41 can be viewed, and this portion is connected to the paper feed guide 40. We use as. That is, the flat portion 41
(First surface, front surface) has two protruding ridges 44, 44 extending in the front-rear direction (position regulating means, 44, 44 in a direction perpendicular to both the print head direction and the direction perpendicular to the surface). The position of the ridge 44 indicates the width (size) of the recording paper P from the stepped portion 42 on the left side. Of course ridge 44
Instead of a simple display, the left stepped portion 4
2 to the left ridge 44 are the B5 size, the right ridge 44 is the A4 size, and the entire width of the flat portion 41 is the B4 size. Can be regulated according to the size of the recording paper. For example, a right-handed operator has a flat part 4
The recording paper P is supplied from the paper feed guide 40 to the mechanism of the printer 2 of the apparatus main body 3 based on the left end of the printer 1. However, in this case, since the recording paper P is inserted with reference to the left end of the flat portion 41, it is easy for the operator to use, and in particular, other than the recording paper P of the predetermined size, for example, a postcard or a label can be appropriately guided. . The mechanism of the printer 2 is located at the leading end of the paper feed guide 40 and the recording paper P
, A first paper path 52 connected to the paper supply port 51, and a paper discharge port 53 formed on the surface of the device body 3 near the upper side of the paper supply port 51. , And a second paper path 54 connected to the paper discharge port 53.

The first paper path 52 extends in a plane in the apparatus main body 3 and penetrates through the rear part of the apparatus main body 3, and an exposure port 57 described later is formed in this penetrating portion. On the other hand, the second paper path 54 branches off at a branch portion 55 at an intermediate portion of the first paper path 52 and extends slightly obliquely upward to the paper discharge port 53. An openable / closable printer cover 56 is provided on a second plane provided above the second paper path 54 and parallel to the bottom surface of the apparatus main body 3. Can be opened. The recording paper P is supplied from the paper supply port 51, is introduced into the mechanism of the printer 2 through the first paper passage 52, and stops when the trailing end of the paper reaches the branch portion 55. In this case, a part of the recording paper P is squeezed out through the exposure port 57 and is exposed. Therefore, recording papers P of various sizes can be used without increasing the size of the device main body 3, and the recording papers P are not bent. Next, the recording paper P is switched back and guided to the second paper path 54, and printing is started at the same time. As the printing progresses, the recording paper P is discharged from the second paper path 54 to the outside through the paper discharge port 53. After printing on the recording paper P by the print head 68, the recording paper P is discharged through the exposure port 57. It can also be discharged as paper exit.

The branching portion 55 of the second paper path 54 is provided with a transfer means for transferring the recording paper P from the first paper path 52 to the second paper path 54, and thus enables the recording paper P to be switched back. ing. The transfer means appropriately controls the first and second paper passages 5 according to the movement of supply and discharge of the recording paper P.

When the recording paper P is discharged, the first paper path 52 is set to "closed" and the second paper path 54 is set to "open". A coil spring 60 and a solenoid 59 are connected to the rear end of the gate 58 at the top and bottom, respectively.
Closes the first paper path 52 by the coil spring 60
It is biased in the direction to become the state. The solenoid 59 is excited based on a detection signal of the first paper detection sensor 61, and swings the gate 58 in a direction to bring the second paper path 54 into a “closed” state.

The two-sheet detection sensors 61 and 62 are composed of first and second paper sensors.
The first paper detection sensor 61 is provided on the upstream side of the branch portion 55 of the two paper passages 52, 54 so as to face the paper passages 52, 54, respectively. Upon detection, the second paper detection sensor 62 detects the leading end in the feed direction of the recording paper P that has been switched back to the print position. That is, when the recording paper P is introduced into the first paper path 52 and its leading end is detected by the first paper detection sensor 61, the solenoid 59 is driven to open the gate 58 to open the first paper path 52, The paper path 54 is swung to the "closed" position. When the recording paper P is further fed and the second paper detection sensor 62 detects the trailing end of the recording paper P, the solenoid 59 is driven after a predetermined time to move the gate 58 through the first paper path 52 to ""Closed" and the second paper path 54 is swung to the "open" position. At the same time as the swing, the paper feeding direction is reversed, and the recording paper P is switched back and introduced into the second paper passage 54. Here, the leading end of the recording paper P is detected by the second paper detection sensor 62, and the recording paper P temporarily stops at the print start position (home position), and printing is started from this stop position. These paper feeds are performed by various rollers provided in each section of the first and second paper paths 52 and 54.

In the first paper path 52, a first feed roller 64 provided on the paper feed port 51 side and a second feed roller 65 provided on the exposure port 57 side are provided. The third paper feed roller 66 is provided in the second paper path 54 on the paper discharge port 53 side. Each of these feed rollers 64, 65, 66 is

The feed is configured to be performed. Therefore, the first and second paper paths 52 and 54 and the first, second and third feed rollers 6
4, 65, 66 constitute paper feeding means. on the other hand,
A print head 68 for printing (printing) on the recording paper P is provided near the upstream side of the branch portion 55 of the first paper path 52 so as to face the paper path 52. Further, a platen roller 67 is provided to face the print head 68. The recording paper P is held between the print head 68 and the platen roller 67, and
Printing is performed by line feed of the feed roller 66 and printing operation of the print head 68 in the left-right direction.

Control signals are outputted to the print head 68, the feed rollers 64, 65, 66, the motor (M) 22 for driving the platen roller 67, and the solenoid 59 via 1, 21, 21. That is, the printing operation of the printer 2 of the personal computer 1 according to the present embodiment is controlled by the microprocessor 11 based on the control program stored in the ROM 12. In this embodiment, as described above, the first and second paper paths 5 are used.
Since the recording paper P is fed while the recording paper P is maintained in a flat state by switchback, the paper feeding resistance of the recording paper P is extremely small, and the recording paper P is bent. I can't get it. Therefore, even a thick paper such as a postcard or a label can be appropriately printed without any trouble. When the switchback operation is performed, the operator can perform a series of printing operations in front of the display 5 without having to tilt the display 5 forward or reach for the rear of the device body 3 during printing. And a series of operations can be easily performed.

When the recording paper P after printing is discharged to the front of the display 5, the operator can compare the screen of the display 5 with the printout on the recording paper P during printing. Checking and canceling printing can be performed quickly. Further, by moving the keyboard 4 relatively to the flat portion 41, the recording paper P can be easily set on the flat portion 41, and the ridges 44 are formed on the flat portion 41. Therefore, the recording paper P can be reliably transported according to the size of the recording paper P.
In the above embodiment, after the recording paper P is once moved backward, the paper feeding direction is reversed, and the recording paper P is moved forward and discharged forward. However, this is achieved by changing the control program. The paper feeding procedure can be variously changed. For example, the recording paper P is supplied from a paper feed port 51 to a first paper path 52.
And the recording paper P may be discharged from the exposure port 57 using the exposure port 57 as a discharge port, or conversely, the first paper path 52 and the second
The paper may be moved backward through the paper path 54 and discharged from the discharge port 53.
