Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a personal word processor (hereinafter referred to as PAW).
The input function of conventional PAWP is 1 manual. There was only a keyboard for input; 4. There was no input section for images, print images, etc.; 1. Editing functions were also monotonous, and the documents created were extremely simple.

[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]

With the above-mentioned conventional technology, input is only possible using a keyboard, and characters and symbols stored in memory can only be entered in predetermined combinations, and the spacing between characters can only be selected within a certain range. It was not possible to input handwritten manuscripts created by drawing figurines or characters. Furthermore, there is no pre-prepared memory storage inside the device, and it is not easy to import other information to be printed from outside the device, or to read and store handwritten manuscripts and then retrieve them. It was inconvenient.

An object of the present invention is to solve the above-mentioned problems.

The above purpose is to use a keyboard or image scanner as an input device, and a printer or display f as an output device.
4 in one main body case, and by attaching an external storage card as a storage device to a part of this main case,
achieved.

〔Example〕

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

1 is the main body case, with a manual input device on the top.

A keyboard 2 for inputting Roman characters, kana, etc. is placed on the front right side of the main body, a keyboard 3 for inputting numbers etc. is placed on the upper right side, and a power switch 4. and speaker holes 5 are arranged.

A display device t6 such as a liquid crystal display is disposed vertically on the upper left side of the keyboard 2.

From the front on the left side of each element group of human body case 1.

Paper roller for memos 7, image input device Ruru image scanner 8. and a printer 9 which is an output device are arranged, and a cover 10 for covering them and underlaying the memo i is provided integrally with the lower base 11 of the main body case 1.

This cover 10 is configured to be able to bend freely through hinges 12 and 13 made of thin parts, and is positioned by stoppers 14 and 15 provided on the base 11.

Moreover, when covered with the cover 10, the stop is the protrusion 16 provided integrally on the cover 10, 1 wooden case, 1 knee, 1. It is engaged and fixed in a hole 17 provided in.

・1.1 The paper roller 7 is rotatably supported by a shaft 18 in a groove 19 provided in the stopper 14, and a long and thin piece of paper is wound in layers. When you need memo paper, grab the leading edge of the 6 paper row 27 and pull it out.
You can use the back side of the cover 10 as an underlay and write freely with a Giki tool.

The paper roller 7 is housed in a main body case 1 together with an image scanner 8 and a printer 9, and is covered with a cover 10.

The image scanner 8 is constructed as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6. That is, since the % original paper 20 enters from P3 and exits in the P4 direction, it moves in the nP5 direction.

The surface of the original paper 20 is irradiated with light 22 from an LED 21, which is a light emitting element, and the reflected light 23 is emitted from an optical fiber or the like. Light is received by a CCD 25, which is a charge-coupled device, through a SELFOC lens 24, and information such as an image or text is replaced with a bit signal and input.

In this case, 26 from the end surface of the SELFOC lens 24 is
A board that controls the image scanner 8 and includes a SELFOC lens 24. Metal fittings 27 for servo, the CCD 25
and various control elements (not shown) are fixed. 28 is a cover.

29 and 30 are rollers for guiding the manuscript paper 20.

Note that a guide protrusion 31 for guiding the original paper 20 is provided at the center of the base 11.

The printer 9 has a roller 36 for feeding printing paper 35 for postcards etc. onto the printer base 32. It is composed of a control board 37 and the like.

38 is a guide roller that helps feed the print M135 from Pl to P2 direction.

Keyboards 2, 3 . arranged on the right half of the main body case l. The power switch 4, the speaker hole 5, and the display device t6 are inserted from the rear side using the notch valve provided on the main body control board and the guide 42 provided on the base 11 as guides, and are installed on the main body control board 39. It is pushed into the connector 43 and connected.

In FIG. 11, 44 is a microcomputer that controls the entire personal word processor, and around it is a memory i for software programs (0M45, a memory RAM 46 for temporary storage, and an expansion slot for a memory card 40 as an external storage device. This is a block diagram of a configuration in which a serial I1048 for connecting a 47° communication modem and a group of LSIs are arranged.

The electrical system of each mechanical element is a buzzer 5a, a printer ga,
Display device 6b, keyboards 2a, 3a.

Assuming image scanner Ba, corresponding control LSIs 5b, 9tl, 6b, and 2b.

3b and Bb are connected.

As an example of the external storage card 40,
One example is a structure in which the conductive solder part except the connecting terminal 52 is entirely covered. The external storage card 40 is
It is attached to the connector 43 as shown in FIG. That is, when the external storage card 40 is installed, the spring-shaped pins 49 of the connector 43 are pressed against the connection terminals 52 of the external storage card 40, and information is input and output to the semiconductor memory 50 through the connections.

In addition to the above, the external storage card 40 has a memo card with the end of the card itself serving as the female part of the connector.

It may also be of a structure that allows it to be directly connected to and removed from a pair of male connectors attached to the main body.

In addition, in this embodiment, when it is necessary to draft a manuscript, take notes, or do simple calculations while using a word processor, the paper can be pulled out by the necessary length from the paper roller 7 wrapped with memo paper, and then used. Bye. The paper roller 7 is arranged in front of the main body case 1, and it is at hand during operation, so that if you want to increase the length of the memo paper, you can immediately see the required amount and use it conveniently.

〔Effect of the invention〕

According to the present invention, it is possible to input documents and figures with one hand or four hands as needed, and it is also easy to use and has a multifunctional function that allows you to leave the human power and input the necessary information to be printed from outside. We can provide a personal word processor.
