Description
본 발명은 프린팅기기 및 충전방법에 관한 것으로, 보다 상세하게는 충전기능이 구비된 프린팅기기 및 그 프린팅기기를 이용한 충전방법에 관한 것이다.The present invention relates to a printing apparatus and a charging method, and more particularly to a printing apparatus having a charging function and a charging method using the printing apparatus.
일반적으로, 복사기나 레이저 프린터와 같은 프린팅기기는 언제든지 입력된출력명령에 따라 프린팅작업을 수행할 수 있도록 전원이 공급된 상태로 대기된다. 이 경우, 프린팅기기는 출력명령의 입력 등을 체크하면서 전체 시스템의 이상유무를 정기적으로 점검하면서 출력 대기상태로 유지된다. 따라서, 프린팅기기는 메인전원을 오프시키기 전에는 계속해서 일정크기 이상의 여유전력을 공급받게 된다. 따라서, 프린팅작업을 자주 수행하지 않음에도 불구하고 필요이상의 여유전력이 소모되고 있는 문제점이 있다.In general, a printing device such as a copying machine or a laser printer is waited with the power supplied so that printing can be performed at any time according to the inputted output command. In this case, the printing apparatus is kept in the output standby state while periodically checking the entire system for abnormalities while checking input of an output command. Therefore, the printing apparatus continues to receive a certain amount of excess power before turning off the main power source. Therefore, there is a problem that excess power is consumed more than necessary even though the printing operation is not frequently performed.
한편, 최근에는 휴대용 전화기나, 휴대용 카메라 등과 같은 다양한 휴대용 기기가 널리 보급되고 있으며, 이러한 휴대용기기는 통상적으로 충전용 밧데리를 이용하어 전원을 공급하도록 되어 있다. 그런데, 상기 휴대용기기를 충전하기 위해서는 소정의 충전기 및 AC/DC 변환기를 휴대하여야 하는 불편함이 있다. 또한, 일회용 건전지가 아닌 충전용 건전지를 사용함에 있어, 그 비용을 절감할 수 있으나, 이 경우에도 충전용 건전지를 충전시키기 위한 기기들을 함께 휴대하여야 하는 문제점이 있다.On the other hand, in recent years, various portable devices such as portable telephones, portable cameras, and the like are widely used, and these portable devices are typically designed to supply power by using a rechargeable battery. However, in order to charge the portable device, it is inconvenient to carry a predetermined charger and an AC / DC converter. In addition, in using a rechargeable battery rather than a disposable battery, the cost can be reduced, but in this case, there is a problem in that the devices for charging the rechargeable battery must be carried together.
본 발명은 상기와 같은 문제점을 해결하기 위해 창안된 것으로, 출력대기시의 여류전력을 이용하여 충전기능을 수행할 수 있도록 개선된 프린팅기기 및 충전방법을 제공하는데 그 목적이 있다.The present invention has been made to solve the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide an improved printing device and a charging method to perform a charging function using the excitation power during the output standby.

도 1을 참조하면, 본 발명의 실시예에 따른 프린팅기기는, 프린팅기기의 본체(10) 내에 마련되는 엔진부(20)와, 전원공급 회로부(30)와, AC/DC 전환 회로부(40)와, 외부기기 충전부(50)와, 제어부(60)를 구비한다.Referring to FIG. 1, a printing device according to an exemplary embodiment of the present invention includes an engine unit 20, a power supply circuit unit 30, and an AC / DC switching circuit unit 40 provided in a main body 10 of the printing device. And an external device charging unit 50 and a control unit 60.

As shown in FIG. 2, the engine unit 20 includes a photosensitive drum 21, a developing unit 22, a charging unit 23, a fixing unit 24, and the like in the case of an electrophotographic printer.
상기 전원공급 회로부(30)는 본체(10)에 설치되어 외부로부터 전원을 공급받는다. 상기 전원공급 회로부(30)는 상기 제어부(60)에 의해 구동제어되어 AC/DC 전환 회로부(40)와 엔진부(20) 등으로 AC 전원을 공급하게 된다.The power supply circuit unit 30 is installed in the main body 10 to receive power from the outside. The power supply circuit unit 30 is drive controlled by the control unit 60 to supply AC power to the AC / DC switching circuit unit 40, the engine unit 20, and the like.
상기 AC/DC 전환 회로부(40)는 상기 전원공급 회로부(30)에 연결되며, 그 회로부(30)에서 공급되는 AC전원을 DC 전원으로 변환한다.The AC / DC switching circuit part 40 is connected to the power supply circuit part 30, and converts AC power supplied from the circuit part 30 into DC power.
상기 외부기기 충전부(50)는 본체(10)에 마련된다. 이 외부기기 충전부(50)는 상기 AC/DC 전환 회로부(40)로부터 DC 전원을 공급받아 외부기기를 충전시킨다. 이러한 외부기기 충전부(50)는 충전용 밧데리를 충전시킬 수 있도록 본체(10)에 마련되는 제1충전부(51)와, 케이블(C)을 이용하여 외부기기를 충전시키기 위한 제2충전부(53)를 구비한다. 즉, 상기 제1충전부(51)는 본체(10)의 소정 부위에 충전용 밧데리를 수용할 수 있도록 소정 형상으로 마련되며, 그 내측에는 한 쌍의 충전단자(51a)(51b)가 마련된다. 또한, 상기 제2충전부(53)는 휴대폰이나 기타 휴대용 기기를 직접 충전하기 위한 것으로, 충전을 위한 케이블(C)이 결합되는 연결포트(53a)를 가진다. 즉, 상기 연결포트(53a)는 본체(10)의 외측에 노출되게 소정 부위에 마련된다. 따라서, 사용자는 상기 제1 및 제2충전부(51)(53)를 선택적으로 사용하여 밧데리나 휴대기기를 충전시킬 수 있다.The external device charging unit 50 is provided in the main body 10. The external device charging unit 50 receives DC power from the AC / DC switching circuit unit 40 to charge the external device. The external device charging unit 50 is the first charging unit 51 provided in the main body 10 to charge the charging battery, and the second charging unit 53 for charging the external device using the cable (C). It is provided. That is, the first charging unit 51 is provided in a predetermined shape to accommodate the battery for charging in a predetermined portion of the main body 10, a pair of charging terminals (51a) (51b) are provided inside. In addition, the second charging unit 53 is for directly charging a mobile phone or other portable device, and has a connection port 53a to which a cable C for charging is coupled.

When the charging device such as an external device or a battery is connected to the external device charging unit 50, the power supply circuit unit 30 is controlled to drive DC power to the external device charging unit 50.
상기 구성을 가지는 본 발명의 실시예에 따른 프린팅기기의 구동방법을 도 3을 참조하여 설명하기로 한다.A driving method of the printing apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention having the above configuration will be described with reference to FIG. 3.
먼저, 전원이 오프된 상태에서 프린팅기기에 전원을 온 시킨다(S10). 전원이 온된 상태에서 프린터는 상기 엔진부(20) 등에 대하여 워밍업을 하게 된다(S11) 즉, 상기 단계(S11)에서는 출력명령이 입력되면 소정 시간 내에 프린팅작업을 수행할 수 있도록 정착부(24)를 미리 예열하고, 감광드럼(21)의 상태를 미리 체크하는 등의 작업을 수행하게 된다. 따라서, 이와 같은 워밍업단계(S11)에서는 프린팅기기에 전원이 계속해서 공급된다.First, turn on the power to the printing device in the power off state (S10). When the power is turned on, the printer warms up the engine unit 20 (S11). That is, in step S11, when the output command is input, the fixing unit 24 can perform a printing operation within a predetermined time. Pre-heating in advance, and checks the state of the photosensitive drum 21 in advance. Therefore, in this warm-up step S11, power is continuously supplied to the printing apparatus.
한편, 상기 워밍업단계(S11)가 유지되고 있는 동안, 제어부(60)에서는 출력신호가 입력되었는지를 수시로 판단한다(S12). 그리고, 상기 단계(S12)에서 출력신호가 입력된 것으로 판단되면, 제어부(60)는 엔진부(20)를 구동제어하여 프린팅작업을 수행한다(S13). 그리고, 입력된 데이터에 대응되는 프린팅작업이 완료되면, 제어부(60)는 엔진부(20)의 구동을 멈추고 워밍업단계(S11)를 유지하면서 새로운 출력신호의 입력여부를 확인하게 된다.On the other hand, while the warm-up step S11 is maintained, the controller 60 frequently determines whether an output signal is input (S12). If it is determined in step S12 that the output signal is input, the controller 60 controls the driving of the engine unit 20 to perform a printing operation (S13). When the printing operation corresponding to the input data is completed, the control unit 60 stops driving the engine unit 20 and checks whether a new output signal is input while maintaining the warm-up step S11.
한편, 상기 단계(S12)에서 워밍업단계(S11)가 소정 시간 유지되는 동안에도 출력신호가 입력되지 않는다고 판단되면, 제어부(60)에서는 충전모드를 수행하도록 프린팅기기를 제어한다. 이 때, 제어부(60)에서는 먼저 외부기기 충전부(50)의 이상여부를 체크할 수 있다(S21). 그런 다음, 제어부(60)는 외부기기 충전부(50)에 충전대상물 즉, 충전용 밧데리 또는 연결케이블(C)로 연결된 휴대용 기기가 장착 또는 연결되었는지를 확인한다(S22). 그리고, 상기 단계(S22)에서 충전대상물이 연결된 것이 확인되면, 제어부(60)는 상기 외부기기 충전부(50)에 장착된 충전대상물을 충전시킨다(S23). 즉, 제어부(60)는 전원공급 회로부(30)를 제어하여 AC/DC 전환 회로부(40)로 전원을 공급하도록 하고, 상기 회로부(40)에서는 공급된 AC 전원을 DC 전원으로 전환하여 충전부(50)로 공급하여 충전대상물을 충전시키게 된다.On the other hand, if it is determined in step S12 that the output signal is not input even while the warm-up step S11 is maintained for a predetermined time, the controller 60 controls the printing device to perform the charging mode. At this time, the controller 60 may first check whether the external device charging unit 50 is abnormal (S21). Then, the control unit 60 checks whether the portable device connected to the charging object, that is, the charging battery or the connection cable C, is mounted or connected to the external device charging unit 50 (S22). In addition, when it is confirmed in step S22 that the charging object is connected, the controller 60 charges the charging object mounted in the external device charging unit 50 (S23). That is, the controller 60 controls the power supply circuit unit 30 to supply power to the AC / DC switching circuit unit 40, and the circuit unit 40 switches the supplied AC power to DC power to charge the unit 50. To be charged).
그리고, 충전이 완료되면, 제어부(60)에서는 프린팅기기를 소정 시간 대기상태로 유지시킬 수 있다(S24). 물론 상기 단계(S22)에서 충전대상물이 충전부(50)에 장착되어 있지 않은 것이 확인된 경우에도, 제어부(60)에서는 상기 단계(S24)로 유지시킨다. 그리고, 일정시간이 경과하면 제어부(60)에서는 다시 출력신호의 입력여부를 확인하면서 상술한 단계(S12) 이하의 동작들을 반복해서 수행하도록 제어한다.When the charging is completed, the controller 60 may maintain the printing device in a standby state for a predetermined time (S24). Of course, even if it is confirmed in step S22 that the object to be charged is not mounted in the charging unit 50, the control unit 60 maintains the step S24. Then, after a predetermined time elapses, the controller 60 checks whether the output signal is input again and controls to repeatedly perform the operations below the step S12.
한편, 상기와 같이 프린팅기기에 외부기기 충전부(50)를 마련함으로써, 프린팅기기의 대기중의 여유전력을 이용하여 외부기기 또는 밧데리의 충전기능을 수행할 수 있게 된다. 따라서, 전력효율을 높일 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 일반인들에게 일회용 건전지가 아닌 충전용 건전지의 사용을 편리하게 제공할 수 있다. 또한, 휴대전화기와 같은 휴대기기를 가지고 다니면서 별도의 충전기를 휴대할 필요가 없기 때문에 소비자에게 보다 편리한 서비스를 제공할 수 있다는 이점이 있다.On the other hand, by providing the external device charging unit 50 in the printing device as described above, it is possible to perform the charging function of the external device or the battery using the spare power in the standby of the printing device. Therefore, not only can the power efficiency be improved, but it is also possible to conveniently provide the public with the use of a rechargeable battery rather than a disposable battery. In addition, since there is no need to carry a separate charger while carrying a portable device such as a mobile phone, there is an advantage that it can provide a more convenient service to consumers.
한편, 상기 외부기기 충전부(50)는 충전용 밧데리나 연결케이블등을 장착 및연결할 수 있는 구조로 국한되지 않고, 휴대전화기 등을 직접 장착할 수 있도록 그 장착구조를 적절히 설계 변경할 수 있는 것은 당연하다.On the other hand, the external charging unit 50 is not limited to the structure that can be installed and connected to the battery or the connection cable for charging, it is natural that the mounting structure can be appropriately changed so that it can be directly mounted mobile phones, etc. .
이상에서 설명한 바와 같은 본 발명의 프린팅기기 및 구동방법에 따르면, 프린팅기기에 충전기능을 부가함으로써, 프린팅기기의 대기중 여유 전력을 이용하여 다양한 충전대상물을 충전시킬 수 있다.According to the printing device and the driving method of the present invention as described above, by adding a charging function to the printing device, it is possible to charge a variety of charging objects using the standby power of the printing device.
