Definitions

  • This invention relates to photocopying apparatus and, more particularly, to apparatus utilizing diazo-sensitized copy materials.
  • Diazotype printing and developing machines are widely used in duplicating drawings or other translucent graphic originals and have the advantage of providing a direct positive copy which can be used without further processing or drying.
  • Such machines generally utilize a translucent printing cylinder containing a high-intensity mercury vapor lamp.
  • the original, in contact with the diazo-sensitized sheet material, is conveyed around the cylinder for the purpose of exposure to the radiation of the mercury vapor lamp.
  • diazo-sensitized mtterials are actinically sensitive to spectral energy in the ultraviolet range, hereinafter referred to as U.V.
  • U.V ultraviolet range
  • mercury vapor lamps are used inasmuch as they contain, in their radiation range, approximately 30% U.V., 20% visible, and 50% infrared. Only marginal portions of the visible and none of the infrared radiation is of any use in the exposure of diazotype material. However, these radiations accompany the useful U.V. portion and represent a waste of considerable energy, manifesting itself in the production of heat which must be dissipated.
  • elaborate cooling systems are generally provided in conventional diazo reproduction apparatus, particularly for cooling of the printing cylinder which houses the source of radiation, namely, 'the mercury vapor lamp.
  • the primary object of this invention to increase the efficiency of the exposure apparatus utilizing a source of U.V. radiation, such as a mercury vapor lamp.
  • Another object of the invention is to utilize both the ultraviolet and the infrared spectra of the radiation for the processing of such diazotype materials which are heat reactive in that the latent image may be developed by the application of heat without the use of conventional aqueous ammonia for development.
  • means are provided for filtering and directing the useful radiation of the spectral energy of such lamps to irradiate the sensitized material and, correspondingly, means are provided for preventing the unwanted radiation from reaching the material.
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic representation in cross section of one form of a copying apparatus incorporating the features [of this invention
  • FIG. 2 is a schematic representation in cross section of a modified form of the apparatus
  • FIG. 3 is a schematic representation in cross section of another modification of the apparatus utilizing a rotating printing cylinder.
  • FIG. 4 is a schematic representation in cross section of a further modification of the apparatus.
  • the apparatus shown in FIG. 1 comprises a housing 5 of generally oblong shape having a front wall 6 and a bottom wall 7. Both of these walls are slightly curved and made of glass of which front wall 6 possesses the property of freely passing radiation in the untraviolet spectrum. High silica or lime soda glass is eminently satisfactory for this purpose.
  • the walls 6 and 7 function as platens over which the diazotype material is conveyed for exposure to radiation.
  • a conveyor belt 8 running over rollers 9 and 10 is arranged in contact with the outer surface of the platen 6.
  • Another belt 11 running over rollers 12 and 13 is arranged to contact the outer surface of the platen 7.
  • a motor 15 is shown, by way of example, as the motive means for driving the rollers 9 and 13 by means of a drive belt 16.
  • a feedboard 18 over which the original and the copy material is placed in superposed relation for transport into, or exit from, the apparatus, depending upon the direction of rotation of the motor 15. As will be seen later, the direction of feed is selected in accordance with the type of copy desired from the material to be handled.
  • the top portion of the apparatus has also a feedboard 19 placed over a layer 20 of heat insulating material.
  • a deflector plate 21 guides the copy material onto the board 19.
  • a separation device 22 between the rollers 9 and 13 functions, in one direction of operation, to separate the original from the sensitized material and to direct it into a receiving tray 24.
  • a tubular mercury vapor lamp 25 which is the light source and from which emanates radiations in the ultraviolet and infrared spectra in the ratio as previously mentioned.
  • the light source 25 is in the focal point of a parabolic reflector 26 so that the radiation utilized for exposure is directed toward the platen 6.
  • a filter plate 27 which has a particular characteristic in that it will freely permit radiation in the ultraviolet spectrum to reach the platen 6- but will prevent radiation in the infrared spectrum to pass in the same direction.
  • the construction of the filter plate 27 is of special significance in the operation of the exposure unit.
  • Both the plate 27, as well as the exposure platen 6, are made of glass of the type which transmits ultraviolet radiation, as for example, high silica or lime soda glass.
  • the filter plate 27 has a particular coating which permits the free passage of U.V. radiation, but reflects the infrared portion of the spectrum.
  • a coating is known as a multilayer optical interference coating and is applied by vacuum deposition methods. It consists of alternate layers of materials of high and low refractive index having a thickness of about one-quarter of the wave length of light. These are commercially available in various properties of spectral reflectivity and transmissivity.
  • the filter plate 27, having the above desired properties may have the Bausch & Lomb coating -359 or the Fish-Schurman coating 6143.
  • the reflector 26 is made of glass with a special multilayer interference coating on one or both sides thereof which strongly reflects U.V. radiation, but allows the free passage of the unwanted portion, particularly the infrared rays.
  • a coating is commercially available under the trade name Fish-Schurman Filter 3025" or Tiffen Filter 83.
  • both the reflector 26 and the filter plate 27 perform the function of dichroic filters to separate the useful radiation and direct it to the sensitized material for exposure and to reflect the unwanted portion of the spectrum, particularly the infrared rays, and direct these to platen 7 for use in the heat development or heat printing of the exposed material.
  • the copying apparatus consists of a light source and two distinct supports irradiated from this source with selected spectra of the radiated energy. Each surface has conveying means for passing the sensitized material over it, either for exposure or for development.
  • These basic elements of the apparatus are found in diverse form in the various modifications shown in FIGS. 2, 3 and 4.
  • the construction in FIG. 2 is very much the same as in FIG. 1, except that the filter plate 27 is tilted, thereby eliminating the dichroic properties needed for the reflector 26 and also the heat reflector 28.
  • the parabolic reflector 26 is placed against the side 31 of the housing and in the focal point thereof is the light source 28.
  • the apparatus shown in FIG. 3 departs from the previous ones in that in place of platens, the distinct supports are portions of a conventional transparent printing cylinder 32 which is rotatably mounted in suitable bearings, not shown here.
  • the cylinder 32 is driven by endless belt 33 which runs over strategically placed rollers 34, 35, 36, and 37. Drive may be effected by coupling of a motor to any one of the rollers.
  • a parabolic reflector 26 in the focal point of which is the light source 25. Facing the reflector, and tilted at an angle, is the filter plate 27.
  • Feedboard 18 is arranged at the lower end of the cylinder 32 for operation in one direction of rotation and a feedboard 19 at the top side for operation in the other direction of rotation.
  • the apparatus shown in FIG. 4 represents another form utilizing the essential elements of the invention.
  • the curved platens 6 and 7 form a unitary structure being fused together by the beads 40 and 41 which also hold the filter plate 27. The latter acts as a dividing wall between the two above-mentioned elements.
  • the right-hand side portion houses the light source 25.
  • a conveyor belt 11 placed over rollers 12, 13 and 14 contacts the outer surface of the platen 7.
  • Another conveyor belt 8 placed over rollers 9 and 10 contacts the outer surface of the platen 6.
  • a curved feedboard 42 serves for the entrance of the copy material, consisting of the original to be copied, indicated as O, and the sensitized material, indicated as S. These are placed in superposed relation.
  • Another feedboard 43 serves for the entry of the material between the conveyor belt 11 and the roller 14.
  • a tray 44- in conjunction with deflector plate 45 serves for the guiding and depositing of the copies, respectively.
  • thermodiazo material the diazo material to be used in conjunction with these is of the type generally known as thermodiazo material.
  • thermodiazo material These materials require no chemical treatment for development of the latent image but only the application of heat. They are sensitive to U.V. radiation as are conventional diazo materials and, if exposed through a transparent original, will form a positive image which will become visible upon application of heat. Conversely, if such a material is first exposed to heat radiation, e.g., by reflection from a copy material which may be opaque, a reflex image is obtained which, upon further exposure to U.V. radiation will become visible. In this manner, it is feasible to make copies from an opaque original in a manner similar to those which can be obtained with heat reactive copy materials. This is generally known as thermoprinting.
  • the apparatus herein shown in various forms may therefore be used for conventional diazo reproduction or, if de sired, for reflex copying.
  • platen 6 is first utilized.
  • the motor 15 is placed into operation to run in such direction as to move the conveyor belt 8 downwardly over the platen 6.
  • the transparent original 0 is placed under the sensitized sheet S and both are fed over the board 19 and, guided by deflector plate 21, will pass by the belt 8 over the platen 6.
  • the filter plate 27 allows U.V. to pass but reflects the infrared rays.
  • the material is passed between the belt 11 and the platen 7.
  • it is subjected to a strong infrared radiation by virtue of the energy concentrated there from the reflector 28 and from heating elements 29 and 30 and thus heat development takes place.
  • the material emerges over the feedboard 18.
  • the direction of the motor 15 is reversed and the material is placed over the feedboard 18 in such relation that the original 0 is on top and the sensitized material S is on the bottom. As it passes under the platen 7, it is subjected to infrared radiation, resulting in an imagewise exposure since the heat absorbed by the dark areas, such as the letters of a printed page, will be more intense than that in the white areas. After heat exposure, the material leaves the apparatus by virtue of the deflector plates 22 and falls into the receiving tray 24. The sensitized sheet is then separated from the original and is fed into the U.V. portion of the apparatus for development, eg the burning off of the diazo compound in the non-coupled areas.
  • FIG. 3 utilizes a rotating glass cylinder 32 which allows either U.V. or infrared radiation to pass through.
  • a rotating glass cylinder 32 which allows either U.V. or infrared radiation to pass through.
  • the latter indicated as 0
  • S sensitized sheet
  • This portion of the cylinder 32 is irradiated with U.V. from the light source 25 due to the filtering action of the plate 27 whereas the infrared portion of the spectrum from the lamp 25 is reflected from this plate toward the rear of the revolving cylinder.
  • the cylinder In the reverse operation for making reflex copies, the cylinder is caused to turn in a counterclockwise direction so that the material is fed in from the feedboard 19, entering first the infrared irradiated potion D-C and, thereafiter, the U.V. portion B-A to be deposited on the feedboard 18. It is to be noted that in reflex copying the original 0 is placed under the sensitized material S so that the latter faces the printing cylinder and the radiation.
  • the apparatus in FIG. 4 is compact in the sense that both platens '6 and 7, as well as the filter plate 27, are of unitary construction forming a solid assembly.
  • the material is fed over the feedboard 42 to enter over the roller between the belt 8 and the platen 6.
  • the rollers 9 and 10 run in a counterclockwise direction passing the material over the surface of the platen 6 to be exposed to U.V. radiation from the source 25 through the filter plate 27.
  • the original is then diverted by the separator 22 and guided by the deflector plate 45 and falls into the reeciving tray 44.
  • the copy sheet continues in the direction toward the bite of the belt 11 at roller 12 to be passed over the platen 7 for heat development.
  • the material is inserted into the apparatus over the feedboard 43 so that it will pass first over the platen 7 for infrared irradiation and then over the platen 6 for U.V. exposure.
  • the order of placement of the material is reversed in that the original is placed on top and the sensitized material on the bottom thereof prior to insertion into the apparatus over the board 43.

  • a first support means for selecting a desired spectral range of radiation including the ultraviolet from said source, means for irradiating said support with said selected spectral radiation from said source
