    Optical scanning device of the printing press
    BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an optical scanning device of a printing press, and more particularly, to an optical scanning apparatus of a printing press for irradiating a photosensitive medium by deflecting light emitted according to image information from a light source within a predetermined angle range.
    1 is a perspective view showing a typical photo-precipitator.
    Referring to the drawings, the optical device has a light source 11, a physical lens 12, and a deflection disk 14. In the deflection disc 14, a diffraction pattern for deflecting the incident light beam at a predetermined angle by rotation is repeatedly formed in each of the divided regions. The deflection disc 14 is rotated by a motor (not shown) which is not shown.
    In operation of the optical scanning device, when light is emitted from the light source 11 while rotating the deflection disk 14 at a constant speed, the diffracted light passing through the deflection disk 14 is deflected while sequentially changing the traveling path. . Whenever the light beam emitted from the light source 11 tracks a partition area in which the same diffraction pattern of the deflection disk 14 is formed, the diffracted light is repeatedly deflected at the same position. Therefore, the photosensitive belt 17, which is the columnar object, is formed in a row by the light beam repeatedly in the longitudinal direction by the deflecting disk 14 continuously rotated. In this way, the Gwangju spectator adjusts the light emission timing so that the optical signal emitted from the light source 11 can be irradiated within the area from the tip of the image writing area D set at the center portion on the photosensitive belt 17 according to the image information. Should be.
    Conventionally, for this purpose, a method of matching scan synchronization by detecting light emitted in a direction outside the image writing area D at a fixed position is used. That is, the scanning synchronous photodetector 18 is arranged so that the light emitted from the deflection disk 14 in the direction outside the image writing area D of the photosensitive belt 17 can be detected. When the signal corresponding to the light reception is output from the scanning synchronous photodetector 18, the light is emitted from the light source 11 toward the tip of the image writing area D while the driving of the light source 11 is temporarily stopped. After the set delay time, light emission from the light source 11 corresponding to the image information was started. At this time, the delay time circulates the trajectory set after the light receiving signal of the scanning synchronous photodetector 18 from the scanning speed information of the known optical scanning device such as the rotational speed of the deflection disk 14 and the beam deflection angle due to the diffraction pattern. It is the time calculated | required until it can emit light from the light source 11 toward the front end of the image writing area | region D of the photosensitive belt 17 which exists.
    However, since the method starts driving of the light source 11 corresponding to the image information after the signal corresponding to the light reception from the photodetector 18 is output, after the delay time determined for the normal trajectory progression. When the photosensitive belt 17 moves forward in a zigzag form in a direction perpendicular to the traveling direction (light scanning direction), a part of the light containing the image information as much as the track deviation of the photosensitive belt 17 is stored in the image writing area ( There is a problem that can reach on the photosensitive belt 17 at the position away from D).
    In order to improve this problem, a deflection disc that provides a wider beam deflection angle to deflect the beam to a position beyond the photosensitive belt 17 is used. The photodetector 19 is disposed to detect the deflected light traveling across the photosensitive belt 17 behind the photosensitive belt 17 so as to reflect the trajectory movement of the light source. There is a way to adjust. However, this method has a disadvantage in that the system becomes large because the size of the deflection disk has to be increased, and there is a problem in that the scanning repeat cycle is long.
    The present invention was devised to solve the above problems, and is set on the photosensitive belt irrespective of the amount of deviation of the photosensitive belt in a direction orthogonal to the traveling track of the photosensitive belt without significantly increasing the deflection angle of the light. An object of the present invention is to provide an optical printer of a printing press capable of emitting light corresponding to image information in an image writing area.

And a light scanning control unit for controlling the light emission driving of the light source.
    The electrical signal output from the first photodetector is preferably used together with the belt steering controller for controlling the photosensitive belt to return to the set track.
    Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described in more detail the optical device of the printing press according to the present invention.
    Referring to FIG. 2, the optical scanning device according to the present invention includes a light source 21, a deflection disk 24, a first light detector 25, a second light detector 26, and a light scanning control unit 30. Reference numerals 45, 46, and 47 denote rollers for rotating the photosensitive belt 27.
    The deflection disk 24 rotated by the motor 23 is a deflection beam 29 for periodically deflecting the light beam incident in one direction from the light source 21 through the physical lens 22 in a predetermined angle range by the rotation thereof. ) And a pattern is formed so that the auxiliary beam 28 can be emitted in a predetermined direction different from the deflection direction of the deflection beam 29 irrespective of rotation.
    As a method for simultaneously generating the deflection beam 29 and the auxiliary beam 28 for one incident light beam, a zero-order diffraction beam which is transmitted as it is without changing the direction of travel, and a predetermined order for deflection at a desired angle, for example, 1 There is a method of forming a diffraction pattern on the deflection disc 24 so that the differential diffraction beams are simultaneously emitted. The zero-order diffraction beam may be used as the auxiliary beam 28 and the first-order diffraction beam may be used as the deflection beam 29.
    In addition to this method, as a method for repeatedly generating the deflection beam 29 and the auxiliary beam 28 for one incident light beam, as shown in FIG. 3, the deflection beam 29 can be repeatedly scanned four times per revolution. The auxiliary region 24b capable of generating the auxiliary beam 28 may be formed between the four diffraction pattern regions 24a for generating (). The light irradiated to the auxiliary region 24b is treated so that the surface of the deflection disk 24 can transmit light in a constant direction while the rotating disk 24 rotates.
    The deflection angle of the light emitted from one diffraction pattern region 24a is determined from the light receiving position of the second photodetector 26 so as to include the image writing region D of the photosensitive belt 27 as the scanning object. . Even in the case of a deflection disc in which the pattern is repeatedly formed so that the zero diffraction light for the auxiliary beam and the first diffraction light for the deflection beam can be simultaneously diffracted and output to the diffraction pattern region 24a without the auxiliary area 24b, the diffraction angle range of the deflection beam is From the light-receiving position of the second photodetector 26, it is determined to the extent that it can include the image writing area D of the photosensitive belt 27 as the scanning object.
    The first photodetector 25 is disposed long in a direction crossing the photosensitive belt 27 behind the photosensitive belt 27 to provide deviation information of the photosensitive belt 27. The light receiving area of the first photodetector 25 is changed according to the displacement of the photosensitive belt 27 in the optical scanning direction. Therefore, the first photodetector 25 is not shielded by the photosensitive belt 27 of all the auxiliary beams 28 simultaneously emitted from the deflection disk 24, and corresponds to the amount of received light of some of the auxiliary beams 28 that proceed. The electrical signal is output to the optical scanning controller 30.
    On the other hand, the electrical signal is also output to the belt steering control unit 43 for adjusting the track of the photosensitive belt for use in returning the photosensitive belt 27 to the set track.
    The belt steering control unit 43 employed in the printing machine has a horizontal degree in the longitudinal direction with respect to the steering roller 47 installed and selected such that the inclination of the horizontal degree can be adjusted among the rollers 45, 46 and 47. It can be controlled. The belt steering control unit 43 calculates the belt deviation width from the track information of the photosensitive belt 27 provided from the first photodetector 25, and the steering roller so that the photosensitive belt 27 can be returned to the set track. The rotation axis of 47 is forcibly tilted. When the rotation axis of the roller 47 is inclined to either side, mutual tension is formed in the width direction of the photosensitive belt 27 which is in contact with the outer circumferential surface of the roller 47, and the amount of meandering is adjusted.
    The auxiliary beam 28 of light emitted from the deflection disk 24 is directed to the edge of the photosensitive belt 27 via two reflective mirrors 40 and 41 applied as the optical path changing means. The cross section of the auxiliary beam 28 is large enough to cross the edge of the photosensitive belt 27 a predetermined length. Although not shown if necessary for this, a suitable optical element such as a concave lens or the like can be added on the path of travel of the auxiliary beam 28.
    The second photodetector 26 is disposed on a position capable of detecting a deflection beam directed in an angular direction out of a predetermined distance from the image recording area D set in the photosensitive belt 27 of the light emitted from the deflection disc 24. have.
    The optical scanning controller 30 includes a current-voltage converter 31, an analog-digital (A / D) converter 32, a comparator 33, a main controller 34, a light source driver 35, and a motor. It has a drive unit 36.
    The current-voltage converter 31 converts the current signal output in response to the light reception from the first photodetector 25 into a voltage signal.
    The analog-to-digital (A / D) converter 32 converts the input voltage signal into a digital signal that can be read by the main controller 34.
    The main controller 34 reads the digital signal to calculate how much the photosensitive belt 27 is moved in the optical scanning direction from the set track. If the track deviation of the photosensitive belt 27 corresponding to the light reception amount of the first photodetector 25 is recorded in the look-up table LUT in the main controller 34, the track fluctuation calculation is simply performed.
    The main controller 34 is a photosensitive belt 27 after a signal input corresponding to the light reception from the second photodetector 26 using the displacement information on the deviation of the photosensitive belt 27 obtained from the read digital signal. After the delay time corresponding to the time until the light can be emitted from the light source 11 toward the current line unit value in the scanning direction of the image writing area D set therein, the light output start signal is synchronized with the internal control unit ( Determined by 34a) and output to the light source driver 35. In this process, when the signal corresponding to the light reception is input from the second photodetector 26, the main controller 34 outputs a signal to stop light emission of the light source 21 until the light emission start signal is output. )
    When the light emission start signal is output from the main controller 34, the light source driver 35 drives the light source 21 to emit light corresponding to the image data from the light source 21.
    The motor driver 36 is controlled by the main controller 34 to rotate the motor 23 at a set speed. Although not shown, a speed detector (not shown) that detects the rotational speed of the motor 23 and provides it to the main controller 34 may be provided if necessary for the constant speed rotation control of the motor 23.
    On the other hand, the comparator 33 may determine whether the electrical signal output from the first photodetector 25, that is, the voltage signal of the light beam output from the light source 21 exceeds the allowable limit due to abnormal operation. And a circuit for comparing the electrical signal with a reference signal corresponding to the allowable limit. When the electrical signal exceeds the reference signal, the comparator 33 outputs a signal corresponding thereto to the light source driver 35. Preferably, the output signal of the comparator 33 is input to the main controller 34 so that the abnormal operation state of the light source 21 can be known.
    The light source driver 35 stops driving the light source 21 when a signal indicating that the electrical signal exceeds the reference signal is input from the comparator 33. In this way, by determining whether the light source 21 is abnormally operated and controlling the driving of the light source 21, damage to the photosensitive belt 27 due to the light emitted from the light source 21 can be suppressed.
    As described above, according to the optical scanning device of the printing press according to the present invention, it is possible to repeatedly scan the optical signal containing the image information in the image writing area set on the photosensitive belt irrespective of the amount of deviation of the photosensitive belt. Errors can be suppressed. In addition, it is not necessary to increase the beam deflection angle of the deflection disk in order to obtain the track deviation information of the photosensitive belt, and the track deviation information of the photosensitive belt can be used together to return the belt to the normal track.
