1487034 Printers INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORP 16 Dec 1975 [30 Dec 1974] 51666/75 Heading G4H [Also in Division B6] A serial printer (see also Division B6) comprises a type bearing element (8, Fig. 1, not shown) mounted on a type carrier (10) which is driven along the print line by a constant speed motor (18), a further motor 26 applying corrections to the drive to the type carrier to provide for different time intervals between successive character selections. The type element (8) may be a continuously rotated disc, or a ball or stick. The motor 26 is a pulse driven stepping motor, receiving pulses from a decrementer 130 and driven in a direction controlled by control 132. The next character address is compared at 110 with the contents of a ROM 108 receiving codes from a counter 106 set initially at a value dependent on the previous character and incremented on unequal compare at 110. Each no match signal increments counter 116 controlling the direction control 132. Thus the type carrier is displaced at a rate such that the carrier arrives at the next print location at the time when the next character is in position for printing.

97 in FIGS. 2 and 3 is an example of a device in which the drive bodies are made in the form of a threaded spindle with a nut; FIG. 5 shows the arrangement of marks on the printing wheel in FIG. 5, the control circuit of the stepper, i motors shown in FIG. The device comprises (FIG. 1) a wheeled printing device in which the printing disc 1 is located on the carriage 2 having the possibility of reciprocating movement along the printed line driven by rollers 3 and 4 by cable 5. The carriage 2 can be guided by a guide or a bar, we accept with the help of rollers or ball bearings a small amount of force is required for its movement along the print Rows 3 and 4, which serve to drive the carriage 2, are located mainly on the bottom of the carriage, where they do not interfere with other elements necessary for driving the device. The cable 5 extends 1, the roller 3 and is wound on the drive drum. 6 Drum 6 is driven by a motor 7 at a constant speed. The cable 5 unrolled from the drum 6 is guided by the tension roller 8, which creates tension on the cable 5 by means of the spring 9. The cable 5 is then driven around the roller and covers the drive drum 11 driven by the stepper motor 10, the cable 5 covers the drum 11 for several turns M and J to allow for proportionate transmission motor drive force Yuo The stepper motor connected to the drum 11 is designed in such a way that it makes a certain part of the revolution with each electric pulse fed to it, that is, it runs a step ami
Cable 5 comes out of drum 11 around free roller 12 and from it. Back to roller 3 and further, as described. Since cable 5 is infinite, it can be wound in any way on drive drums 6 and 11, unwind from them and move around said rollers, not Returning to a specific position.
Engine 7 has a constant number of revolutions in both directions. It is controlled so that the carriage 2 can move at a constant speed of the printing disc.
In the preferred example of a printing wheel, the arrangement of characters, starting at a reference position in a clockwise direction, is the following: fourteen most common lower case letters, six of the twelve least common lower case letters, ten numbers, thirteen upper case letters, thirteen special characters, again fourteen most common lower case letters letters, the other six of the twelve least common lower case letters, ten numbers, the remaining thirteen upper case letters and thirteen special characters. This is located at the same radial distance from the axis of rotation of the printing wheel.
The relative frequency with which the letters are used, for example, this results in alignment problems that can be solved by introducing the stepping motor Yu, as well as the rollers 3, and 12. If it is accepted that the driving drum 6 has a circumferential speed of 35 cm / s, and Since drum D, with a stepper motor, is at rest, the longitudinal speed of the carriage 2 will soon be exactly half the circumferential speed of the drive drum 6, i.e. carriage 2 will have a longitudinal velocity of about 17.5 cm / s. IF the drum b rotates against the arrow, the cable 5 winds towards roller 3, the cable from roller 8 winds up at the same time. Due to this, the cable is under tension between the rollers 8 and moves the carriage 2 to the right Accordingly, the carriage moves to the left if the rotation of the driving drum 6 is reversed. Fig. 4 shows schematically the structure of a printing disc with 112 character positions, which also contains a redundant set of characters, in order to reduce the time required for the transition from one character to another. This saving of time passing between the moment the first character is present at the printing position until the moment of the subsequent sign to be imprinted at the printing position is the sampling time for the subsequent character
Glia language given in, 1. Such tables can also be compiled for all other languages. In special use cases
the alphabet can also be added additional characters, for which others, for example, the special character # 1, can be withdrawn,
For clarification, it should be noted that the constant speed drive of the carriage 2 ensures a longitudinal displacement of about 2.5 mm over the period of time required to select a single character located at a distance of 5 characters from the print locations. From here
it follows that if two successively printed characters are removed from each other
reactions depending on the distance between the characters on the print wheel.

The tbl {qa 2 Druga on the printing wheel exactly on C5 characters, the second character reaches the printing location just when the carriage approaches the printing place, if only there is a drive with a constant number of revolutions. Table 2 shows the values When considering the tables, 2 it becomes obvious that if correction is not required for signs that are 45 steps apart from each other, then for each step that deviates from these nominal 5 steps, correction is required in p, 05b mm. Therefore, for example, tab 2 shows the distance between the characters from 0 to 70 steps with an interval in 5 steps and from 70 to 150 steps with an interval of 10 steps. The amount of correction indicates the distance that the sign should move from the position that would have been achieved due to the flow from the engine 7. In the case of a ten-meter pressure of 0.273 m for 40 steps, means that the carriage 2 should be displaced an additional 0.279 mm from the position it when the 0th character approaches the print location (12 steps) so that the next character is correctly set through the imprint. As another example, consider the case in which successively printed characters are spaced apart from the print card. ese 80 steps, which makes it necessary to reverse bias (negative bias) to 1,95b mm to compensate for excess movement caused drive drum 6 in the process as after printing wheel suitable imprint mark 0 to 80 sign. This correction bias is imposed on the drive through the drum 6 by means of a stepper motor 10 "Stepper motors can be purchased." They perform a pivoting movement at a certain constant angle for each step. Due to the appropriate choice of drum sizes L and a stepper motor, whose angle of rotation corresponds to a known desired value, it is possible to impart a certain number of motor steps to the compensation bias for deviating characters from the nominal 5 distance o If, for example, for a given drum diameter it is necessary Step 3 for each deviation of the sign from the nominal 5 distances, and if it is assumed that the two printable signs are separated from each other by 80 distances, then 35 of 80 distances, and therefore, 35 pulses must be applied to the MjaroaoMy engine, which it transforms into a reverse offset of 1.956 mm in the opposite direction. This corrects the subsequent printed mark relative to the printing position when the character reaches the printing position ( reference position). Corresponding consideration gives Compensation values for all other character distances. The same applies also to the twelve divisions (Table 2). In the above positions, however, it is also necessary to take into account that between the first mark imprint and the presentation for the imprint The second character must pro. This is the minimum amount of time for the mechanical part of the device to work properly. If, for example, it is assumed that with two signs distant from each other, the printing wheel is shorter than the distance center, there is not enough time to return the pressure hammer to the rest position, it becomes necessary to maintain a temporary distance between two consecutive signs that are not as short as possible, if you do not take into account the presence of certain mechanical parts. Depending on the design of the device, the pressure hammer and other mechanical parts of the printing device may require more or less time than the corresponding distance of 4 m between the characters. The time required for the mechanical parts can be determined experimentally for each printing device. In this case, a table similar to Table 2 can be made. If each sign is given an individual step size, then by correction it is possible to make a corresponding change in the distance between the print positions for proportional stepping movement. If two successively printed signs were spaced apart by 40 steps, so many impulses would be supplied to the stepping motor 10 so that the reel 11 would turn 15 ° in the Hour Hand, this would be achieved with five pulses of a given polarity the time it takes for the drum 6 to rotate at a constant number of revolutions counterclockwise and transports the carriage 2 over a distance of 2.261 mm. This carriage feed of 2.261 mm, due to the rotation of the drum 6, together with 0.279 mm of feed, due to the rotation of the drum 11 connected to the stepper motor 10, the total carriage feed of 2.5 mm between two signs, which in tenth division exactly corresponds to the desired distance between two adjacent printable characters. A similar position can also be made for another separation, only the mechanical dimensions of the driving drums 6 and 11, as well as the stepping motor pitch 1Q, must be chosen accordingly to obtain the desired linear movement at a known speed of the driving motor 7. In FIG. 1 stepper motor. 10 is connected to the control unit 13 which, when the stepper motor is rotatable, turns on the necessary pulses of the corresponding polarity. The control unit 13 can be built for this purpose. Fig. 5 shows the engine control unit 13 in detail. In the control unit 13 there is a register 1 in which the position of the last printed character is stored, t, e, -, the position of the printing disc 1, the output of the register 14 is connected to the summing element 15, in which the summation is performed with the preceding position. This value corresponds to 40 the distance between the characters, which are arbitrarily taken as the minimum return time for the magnet 16 and the pressure hammer 17. This new address (the position of the last character plus tO) is then transmitted to the subtracting element 18 when the value obtained from the mimicking element 15 (which corresponds to the Number of characters in the printing disc 1) The new address from the summing element 15 or the subtracting element is set in the counter 19 The counter 19 switches with a clock pulse and other conditions that will be explained below. The contents of the counter are given when switching to accumulator constant values of 20 j to find the sign given to the current address. The sign given to the called address is then brought to the comparison node 2 The device also has a logic circuit AND 22, a counter 23, a logic circuit AND 2, B. CHOD 25 a node cf vneny 21j connected via line 26 with (zhodom Lop sheskoy AND circuit 22, tron devices has a trigger 27 connected to the retarder 28 and the counter 29s via line 30 which is connected to the logical OR circuit 31. The device includes a logic circuit AND 325 trigger 33, connected with logic circuits AND 32 and 3, a subtractive counter 35 connected through the control unit B3 to the blocking unit 37 and the I), Fig. 2 and 3 shows the spindle 38 The nut 35 is mounted on the side of the casing 40, the nut 39 is connected by the hub of the k G gear wheel k2, 8 of the housing i) 0 is also rotatably mounted gear O driven by a stepper motor. The device works as follows. Successively appearing on the print disk 1, the characters from the accumulator 20 are input via a keyboard (not shown) and are fed to the input 25 of the comparison node 21. The result of the comparison will be either an agreement or a mismatch. At the most occurring mismatch, the corresponding signal is given through line 26 to the AND 22 circuit, to which, in addition, a clock pulse is added. When these signals are simultaneously received, the AND 22 circuit gives the output signal corresponding to this pulse to counter 19 step and thereby defines a new address for requesting a constant magnitude 20 accumulator. While the addresses coming out of the counter 19 are switched, they are simultaneously812 but go through the feedback circuit to the counter 23 when the address reaches the value 112. In addition, the switchable address also goes to the AND circuit. IF the comparison node 21 sets the mismatch, the AND 22 circuit also provides an output signal to the counter 29, the counter 29 is arranged in such a way that it is turned on with minus five, counts to zero and. then switches in one step. Counter 29 can also automatically be set by a slow start signal to minus five, and this turn signal passing through trigger 27 can be retracted from the pulse affecting the push hammer 17. It is fed through retarder 28 to trigger 27 to energize counter 29o. The trigger signal 27 serves simultaneously to transfer the contents of the subtracting element 18 to the counter 19 to begin processing the next sign. Counter 29 has line 30, the control circuit OR 31, when binary unit is in line 30. If the contents of counter 29 increase, zero passes and becomes positive, the signal goes 8 line 30. If there is a signal in line 30, the OR circuit 31 works like the inverter, if there is no signal, which is the case when the content of the counter 29 is positive, the OR circuit 31 conducts the maintenance of the counter 29 without changing the AND 32 circuit, the Start signal reaches through the trigger 33 of the AND 32 circuit, it connects to the output signal circuit OR 3 and causes Completion of either the output signal of the OR circuit 31, or the contents of counter 29 on the stripper 35. The latter counts down when receiving feedback signals from the stepper motor 10 "These feedback signals are received when the stepping motor can be switched. During each counting process, the counter 35 outputs the output signal to the control node 36 by the Outcome engine in line 30 and the signal is connected to the output signal of the trigger 33 in the AND circuit. The output signal of the AND 3 circuit is supplied to the interlock node 37, the signal is present in the line 30 and the most signaling knot 36 is the direction of rotation of the stepper motor. The output signal of the node 36 is directly supplied to the stepper motor 10 and causes the required number of rotation steps in the desired direction o. If the comparison node 21 establishes the matching of the printed sign with the sign read from the constant value accumulator 20, it gives the corresponding signal to the AND circuit
[2]
2. The latter causes the return of the address in the counter 19 to the accumulation in the 1L register. Thus, it is possible to translate the register k after determining the distance between the last character and the next printable character to the current position, and it can be considered that there must be at least 40 positions between the characters. If counter 19 exceeds 112, you need to return it to 1, since conventional counters can count to 128 or higher and therefore could get the wrong address. This is produced, as mentioned, by counter 23, which is activated only when Yes, counter 19 reaches level 112. Trigger 27 gives a load signal that causes the content of reading element 18 to load the contents of counter 19, if the circuit has established a matching. At the same time, counter 19 receives all the switching pulses supplied from the AND 22 circuit to it and transfers its contents through the AND 32 circuit to the counter 35. The counter 29 is now empty and can return to minus five, which is achieved by the same signal which loads the subtracting element 18. Switching the contents of the counter 29 through the AND 32 circuit is performed due to an imprint of the preceding mark and prepares the counter 35k for the necessary correction for the next 1. the third mark. Thanks to this, the comparison node 21 is also prepared, determining the following This is a sign, so that its representation is in counter 29 when an imprint of the mark is required, which needs to be corrected accumulated in counter 35. For simplicity, it is assumed that the motor control assembly 36 delivers one pulse for each counter increment of counter 35. In case there is no need for the exact position of the characters, the speed of the printing device can be further increased. For example, it may be sufficient, five steps of the printing disc 1 were given only one step of the stepper motor W, in this case, the counter 35 must perform five counting steps and only then give an output pulse to the Zb node. From this it follows that the parameters of this scheme can be adapted to the desired form of execution. From this it follows that the carriage 2, by superimposing the steps performed by the motor, can also be set in different positions by the time of the imprint than with the direct drive from the engine 7 with a constant number revolutions and drive drum 6. Another design, leading to the same result, but allowing to exclude the cable 5 | as well as rollers 3 and 4, possibly using a drive spindle. The drive spindle mounted in the side walls of the housing can be triple driven by a motor rotating at a constant speed. Figs 2 and 3 show a spindle 38 driven in one direction on which nut 39 is seated. Because the nut 39 is fixed against rotation, it moves in the longitudinal direction of the spindle 38. Since the nut 39 is rotatably mounted in the side wall of the housing 40 the latter can be displaced with the nut 39 along the spindle 38, the nut 39 is connected by the hub tl to the gear wheel 42, the hub 1 is rotatably positioned in the side wall 0 of the housing and serves to transfer force from the nut 39 to the housing 0 to cause the carriage to move. Gear 3 is rotatably mounted in casing 0, driven by a stepping motor CZ, Cog 3 is engaged with gear wheel 42 and therefore brings the hub 41 connected to the nut 39 through 39. Due to this, a relative displacement occurs between the casing 4П and spindle CZ. With simultaneous rotation of the spindle 38 and ga 39, a complex movement consisting of two components, similar to that described in FIG. 1, occurs. The calculation of the number of steps of the steps of the engine 10 and the diameter of the drum 11 corresponds to the determination of the steps of the torque motor C and the rotation of the nut 39 according to FIG. 2 and 3o The lateral displacement of the body tO for each step of the stepper motor 4 occurs in a simple way due to the selection and variation of the pitch diameter of the gear wheels 2 and 43, as well as the elevation angle of the helical line of the spindle 38. At the same time the step of transporting the body 0. freely, if the gears k2 and 3 are made accordingly. The correction offset scheme described may also be able to start / stop, thereby reducing the transport time of the carriage 5 In the start / stop system, the time required for the imprint of the CSj is the largest of the times: the time required for the next sign on the print wheel or the time taken to move the carriage from one printing position to the next one and to stop the carriage. With the help of two drive motors making it possible to superimpose one over the other movement, it is possible to significantly reduce the time required for moving the carriage from one printing position to another. If this is the case, the time required for the imprint of any character is equal to the sampling time of the next character on the print wheel. It is also possible to perform coarser installations during the start-up operation if the printing disc is locked and the pressure mallet is activated at the time when the carriage has passed the desired printing position. The current position of the carriage can be monitored in this case. All the corrections performed in the device by acting on the stepper motor 9 16 are terminated before the carriage approaches the printing site. The use of the present invention allows for improved printing performance.
