1469587 Printers INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORP 23 May 1975 [28 June 1974] 22875/75 Heading G4H A printer includes an array of type characters arranged in a plurality of groups presented successively in front of a print position, and means whereby, when successive print positions require use of the last group followed by the first group, printing and movement of the array along the print line are inhibited for at least one passage of a group past the print position to allow hammer recovery. As disclosed, there are two groups, one for lower case and numerals, the other for upper case and special characters, and as long as successive characters to be printed are in the same group, hammer recovery occurs during presentation of the other group, the two groups being respective halves of a multi-fingertype rotating print wheel, one character being printed per revolution, in the absence of inhibition. The wheel is driven along the print line by selective engagement with a constantlyrotating lead screw. Provision is also made for small lateral movements of the hammer.

The invention relates to the printing industry, in particular to printing devices.
A device for selective printing, comprising a carriage mounted on a carriage movement mechanism mounted on a carriage mounted along a line guiding the carriage mounted on the carriage and associated with a control circuit, is a petal holder with a rotation mechanism and a hammer with an Ij drive.
This device does not provide the required print quality.
The purpose of the invention is to increase the print quality.
The goal is achieved by the fact that the letters on the holder are arranged in groups according to the frequency of use of the alphabet, and the control unit has a block for adjusting the position of the impact hammer and the indicator of the position of groups of letters, while the carriage carries a spring-loaded slider with its position lock and means of movement associated with the block alignment, moreover, the hammer hammer is mounted on the slider, and the carriage movement mechanism has a lead screw mounted in the housing and a cap nut installed on the carriage. The holders of the holder are divided into two groups, placed respectively on the half-circles of the holder, the first group including the lowercase characters of the alphabet, and the second - uppercase. The slider means has an electromagnet and a return spring fixed to the carriage.

The ISIS carriage position diagrams as well as the time of prints} in FIG. 19, a carriage drive, an embodiment; FIG. 20-21 are the time diagrams that explain the course of switching letters on the semicircle of the derdle plate.
The device for selective printing contains a carriage 1, a carriage movement mechanism along the line, a petal holder 2 letters, a holder rotation mechanism, a impact hammer 3, a device control circuit with a unit for adjusting the position of the impact hammer 3 along the printing column with a hammer drive, and an indicator of the position of the groups of letters.
The mechanism for moving the carriage 1 comprises a lead screw 4, the spindle 5 of which is connected with the electric motor 6 by the belt 7, and the tongue 8.
To install the carriage along the printed line, there is an electromagnet 9, spring-loaded 10 spring dog 11, interacting with the toothed rack 12. To return the carriage 1 to the rest position (left position), when the ridge 8 comes out of engagement with the lead screw 4, is associated with the carriage 1 through the cable 13 hours spring 14.
The carriage 1 carries a shaft 15 on which a petal holder 2 is mounted. The holder's rotation mechanism has bevel gears 16 and 17, one of which is mounted on spindle 5 with a possibility of displacement by means of a key 18 installed in a groove 19 of spindle 5. A gear rim is mounted on shaft 15 20, which is used to create pulses depending on the rotation of the holder 2, and a converter 21 is provided to control the crown 20.
Impact hammer 3 is installed on the carriage 1 through, the yoke 22 with the possibility of oscillation. The traverse 22 also has guide rollers 23 and 24, a guide rod 25, when interacting with which the guide rollers 23 and 24 hold the traverse 2 in the required position, and therefore the carriage 1. The impact hammer 3 is fixed on the traverse 22 by means of a support 26 and the alignment unit of the position of the hammer 3, consisting of two flat springs 27 and 28 and the spring 29, which pushes the caliper 26 and the hammer 3 to the left. The drive of the hammer 3 contains an electromagnet 30 with a bark 31. A support 32 is mounted in the support 26. An electromagnet 33 is provided for driving the comb 8.
The petal holder 2 of the letter is a continuously rotating disk with a plurality of radial slots 34, limiting the flexible printing lamellae 35 (FIG. 3), on which the printed letters 36 are located on the periphery of the disk, the latter on the holder 2 arranged in groups according to the frequency of use of the alphabet, divided into two groups of semicircles, with one semicircle containing the most used, and the other - less used characters, for example, the first basically all lowercase letters and numbers, and the second - all uppercase letters You and special characters.
The device control circuit contains the first character register 37, filled with data representing the characters necessary for printing, having the designation code bit of the semicircle in the first, i.e. upper bit position, second register 38, valve circuit 39, comparison circuit 40 with encoded sign representation on petal holder 2, character counter 41, converter 21, offset bias circuit 42, the output of which is associated with the OR element 43, inverter 44 serving for converting the output signal of the element OR 43, the element AND 45 connected to the blocking circuit of the displacement 42, the element AND 46, the blocking circuit of command 47, the inverter 48 Inverter 51, blocking circuit 52, loaded with element AND 53 for controlling electromagnet 9, element OR 54 for setting blocking circuit 52 to its initial position at. a constant output signal of the element And 55, the element And 56, the blocking circuit 57, the element And 58, the loading element And 59 and And 60 (Fig. 19), OR 61, the elements And 62 blocking circuit 63, the electromagnet 64, the elements And 65 and 66 element OR 67.
The device may have an additional ridge 68 mounted relative to the ridge 8, shifted to the left by half the height of the turn.
The elements have inputs 69-71 (see Fig. 13, 20 and 21 |.
A device for selective printing works as follows.
The comb 8 is driven by the electromagnet 33 and engages with the lead screw 4, driven by the electric motor 6. The dog 11 is held by the spring 10 in engagement with the rail 12 to position the carriage 1 along the printed line. When an electromagnet is excited (not shown) under the action of the spring 29, the support 26 is displaced to the right relative to the carriage 1.
When the caliper 26 is depressed by the spring 29 to the left, the printing hammer 3 is positioned to the left of the center line of the petal holder 2, and the exact position is determined by the stop 32
The signs on the holder 2 are located in front of the printing hammer 3 in the following order: lowercase signs, uppercase characters, etc., while the petal holder 2 rotates continuously.
When the characters are arranged in such a sequence, the time for returning the hammer 3 is provided by that.
that each time it switches from uppercase to lowercase and vice versa, the half-turn of holder 2 is additionally represented. The printing mallet 3 is displaced so that it is exactly in the printing position at the time of the print.
The printing hammer 3 is displaced relative to the printing position in four versions: the movement of the printing hammer 3 relative to the carriage 1 (Fig. 1), the movement of the hammer relative to spindle 5 when using the second ridge 68, displaced relative to the first ridge B (Fig. 19), the movement of the printing hammer relative to spindle 5 using a height of 1.25 mm instead of 2.5 mm; in this case, the spindle is double-threaded, the movement of the printing hammer relative to the carriage 1 under the action of the movement of the spindle or some other drive means caliper 3 and the malleus.
The table (Fig. 4) shows, as an example, the place where the hammer is located when the impression is made, with the distance between adjacent 2.5 mm printed stripes measured between the middle lines.
FIG. 5 shows the position of the printing hammer 3 relative to the lamella 35 of the sign 36 at the beginning of the first semicircle; FIG. 7 shows the corresponding position of the printing hammer 3 for the sign 36 on the lamella 35 near the end of the first semicircle; FIG. 7 shows the position of the printing hammer 3 relative to the lamella 35 at the beginning of the second semicircle, and FIG. In - the position of the printing hammer 3, when the displacement according to the invention occurred, for a sign near the end of the second semicircle. FIG. Figure 9 shows the relative position of the print hammer 3 and the slat 35 for the mark at the beginning of the first or second semicircle in a position in which the print hammer 3 is displaced relative to the printing position for the purpose of compensation, and FIG. 15 shows the relative position of the printing hammer 3 and the lamella 35 at the end of one of the two semi-circles.
FIG. 13, the first signed register 37 is filled with data representing the characters necessary for printing, which contain the code code for designating the semicircle in the first (i.e., the upper) bit position. The data from register 37 is transmitted to the second register 38, and it passes through the gate circuit 39 if there is a step-by-step signal at the appropriate time. The output from register 38 is compared in the comparison circuit 40 with the encoded representation of the mark on the holder 2, which is in the printing position, with the encoded representation of the mark coming from the character counter 41 controlled by the converter 21 (Fig. 1). The excitation of an electromagnet (not shown) of the slide 26, which moves the printing hammer 3, is controlled by an offset blocking circuit 42, the output of which is connected to OR 43, to the second input of the last carriage return 1. The output signal of the element OR 43 is converted by an inverter 44. The bias blocking circuit 42 is connected to the element 45, which outputs the output signal if a 39 counting pulse (counting from the return pulse to the beginning of the first semicircle) is applied to its inputs as an indication of the end of the first semi-circle and denoting the second semi-circle of bits from the first position of register 37. Counter 41, the counting outputs of counts, is a counter that counts the pulses coming from converter 21 to reading 46, then jumps to 62 (FIG. 19) and continues to count normally to 71. The contour the blocking is returned to the initial state with an AND 46 element, when a counting pulse and an inverse output signal from the KOHfypa of the interlock command 47 passing through the 4V inverter is applied to its inputs 69. The blocking circuit 47 is loaded by an element AND 49 upon receipt of a 45 counting pulse, as well as a signal from register 37, belonging to the second semicircle. The circuit 47 is returned to the initial state with the aid of the element I 50, when a 70 counting pulse arrives at its inputs and, through the inverter 51, the signal of the first semi-circle of the register 37.
The electromagnet 9 is controlled through the locking circuit 52, which is loaded by the element 53, when a 45 counting pulse and a signal are applied to it, meaning that there are data in register 38. The blocking circuit 52 is reset with the element OR 54, to which the output signal from the element 55 is supplied, when a counting pulse and a signal are applied to its input, which means that there is no data in register 38. Locking circuit 52 returns to its initial state through elements OR 54 and from element 56, if it receives an inversion command from inverter 48 and an output signal from locking circuit 57, which is loaded from locking circuit 47 and returned to its original state element And 58, when the zero input of the counting pulse arrives and the inverse output signal of the blocking circuit 52 through the inverter. As can be seen from FIG. 13, the bit referred to the second semicircle causes the hammer 3 at the 39 counting pulse to shift to the left when the output signal of the element 45 loads the circuit 42, as a result of which the output signal of the inverter 44 disappears, the electromagnet is not excited. Now spring 29 can move the printing hammer 3 to the left (Fig. 2). The comb 8 is always in engagement, if the data prepared for printing is present in a 45 counting pulse received on the element 53. The blocking circuit 52 is turned on and the electromagnet is energized, as a result of which the ridge 8 engages the lead screw 4 and the carriage 1 moves along the printed line. The bit related to the first semicircle comes after the second bit of the first circle, and the counting pulse time 69 is carried out by mixing to the right if the inverse output signal of the blocking circuit of command 47 simultaneously passes through an inverter 48, and a 70 counting pulse through element I 50. Two successive bits relating to the first semicircle in two successive printing cycles do not cause the ridge 8 to separate in the second printing cycle, since the blocking circuit 57 is unloaded through element 55, whereby the flow for controlling the camber 8 during the 70 counting impulse is interrupted. In addition, the bit of the second semicircle, coming after one of the bits assigned to the first semicircle, does not cause a ridge 8 control signal on circuit 52. The interlock of the electromagnet 9 is turned off using a 70 counting pulse. The bias blocking circuit 42 is turned on with a counting pulse of 39, and is turned off with a pulse of 71. Command blocking circuit 47 is turned on with a 45 counting pulse and turns off with a 70 counting pulse. The operation of the printing hammer 3 is marked for the first and second semicircles, after which the shift to the right occurs, and then - the impression in the first semicircle. FIG. Figure 15 presents for comparison a timing diagram of a known print impression device using a rotating flap holder. The carriage moves at a constant speed according to a diagonal curve. The signs with respect to carriage 1 move with so that they first appear in the first column 1, then in the front, and so on. A part of the petal column of the holder 2 is free of marks for the purpose of representing hammer 3 when making impressions in two successive columns of time under any circumstances for returning it to its original position. Thus, printing can continue continuously, with carriage 1 moving at a constant speed. But due to the presence of the unused part of the printing wheel, its diameter and, consequently, its circumferential speed must be too large. If this unused part can be rejected, petal holder 2 has a correspondingly reduced circumferential speed at the same printing speed. On the other hand, the printing speed can be increased and the peripheral speed can be maintained. For this, the signs are divided into two semicircles, but at the same time the printed mallet is not displaced (Fig. 16). During the first half-turn of the holder 2, the first half-circle passes the printing position, and the position of the corresponding characters is shown by a solid line. During the second half-turn the second half-circle passes the printed position, and the position of the characters in this case corresponds to the dotted line. Continuous taking of prints is possible while prints are taken only from the signs of the first semicircle (the line is solid), since when the second semicircle passes, the hammer returns to its original position. Using the example of the first two turns of Fig. 16), it is possible to indicate that the corresponding print time changes during the transition from the first semicircle to the second and may remain unchanged in the second semicircle without necessarily interrupting the movement of the carriage 1. However, if the print goes from the second to the first semicircle without an empty gap between them may not have enough time to return the hammer to its original position, therefore in this case the carriage 1 should be delayed (see Fig. 16) during the fourth rotation. The time required for the carriage 1 to stop and move, lasts from the end of the third revolution to the beginning of the fifth revolution, i.e. full turn or 33 ms when typing 30 characters / s. Moreover, the offset in FIG. 16 is larger than in FIG. 15. This is a disadvantage of a printing device that receives prints at or near the 12 o'clock position. This offset can be reduced in two different ways. In perB1LH, the second set of characters can be positioned so that the print occurs at the place of the same band as for the first set of characters, while
hammer 3 is displaced so that it is aligned better (see Fig. 17). The imprint is made first during the passage of the first semicircle at the first and second revolutions of the petal holder 2. But since the imprint during the passage of the second semicircle is made in the third revolution, the hammer 3 moves backwards and is supplied with a second set of characters (dotted line). The time required for this is from 1/5 to 2.5 turns of the holder. This is also done because there is a second hammer in the offset position.
Impressions from the signs of the second semicircle are removed in the fifth column, however, signs from the first semicircle are required in the sixth column. Therefore, the carriage 1 must stand during one printing cycle and the hammer 3 must move backwards. For these two operations there is a time ranging from 5.0 to 6.0 revolutions. Moreover, they can be performed simultaneously.
The second way to reduce the displacement is that the whole carriage 1 is displaced with hammer 3 {offset means the distance between the center line of the hammer 3 and the center line of the printed column at the time of the impression). In this case, the holder 2 is made so that the signs of the first semicircle are printed in place of the columns, and the signs of the second semicircle between the positions of the columns, as shown by dashed lines in columns 1-3 of FIG. 18. In order to induce the printing of the signs of the second semicircle, the carriage 1 during the half-turn of the petal holder 2 stops. Due to this, the signs of the second semicircle (dashed lines) are aligned on the printed column, and the print can be made only from the second semicircle, i.e. the carriage 1 at a time of 2.5-3.5 revolutions can move backwards with respect to its initial movement, which is 33 ms when typing 30 characters / s. Switching to the first semicircle occurs between 5.0 and 6.0 revolutions.
FIG. Figure 19 shows the logic circuit and the mechanism for moving the carriage 1 to half of the printing position. Additional ridge 68 is installed relative to ridge 8 with an offset to the left by half the height of the coil. The comb 8 is controlled by the locking circuit 52, which is loaded by the element and 60, when a bit related to the first semicircle is fed to its inputs, a 45 counting pulse and a signal. The data in the register 38. The element 61 returns the loop 2 to its initial state with a counting pulse, when a bit related to the second semicircle is issued, or the data signal in register 38 is not from element 62. The second locking circuit 63 is designed to control ridge 68, which is driven by another electromagnet. The blister circuit 63 is set by AND element 65, when a bit belonging to the second semicircle arrives at its inputs, a 69 counting pulse and a signal. The data in register 38.

Locking circuit 63 returns to its original state with element and 66, when a counting pulse appears and the output signal of element OR 67, which is either a bit,
15 relative to the first semicircle, or a data signal in register 38 no. When both circuits 52 and 63 are triggered, the carriage 1 can be displaced by half the height of the turn relative to the turns of the lead screw.
