JP 2004-345148 A
In a conventional apparatus, if a pattern similar to a cut mark is included in an image, the detector may erroneously recognize this as a cut mark. In particular, when a plurality of images of different sizes are mixed and printed on a continuous sheet, it is difficult to estimate the position of the cut mark, and the possibility of detection failure increases. However, Patent Document 1 does not disclose any such recognition or solution means.

The present invention can be widely applied to printing apparatuses such as printers, multifunction printers, copiers, facsimile machines, and various device manufacturing apparatuses. The printing process may be any system such as an inkjet system, an electrophotographic system, a thermal transfer system, a dot impact system, or a liquid development system. The present invention is not limited to print processing, but can be applied to a sheet processing apparatus that performs various processing (recording, processing, coating, irradiation, reading, inspection, etc.) on a roll sheet.
FIG. 1 is a schematic cross-sectional view showing the internal configuration of the printing apparatus. The printing apparatus according to the present embodiment is capable of duplex printing on the first surface of the sheet and the second surface on the back side of the first surface, using the sheet wound in a roll shape. Inside the printing apparatus, there are roughly a sheet supply unit 1, a decurling unit 2, a skew correction unit 3, a printing unit 4, an inspection unit 5, a cutter unit 6, an information recording unit 7, a drying unit 8, a reversing unit 9, and a discharge unit. Each unit includes a transport unit 10, a sorter unit 11, a discharge unit 12, and a control unit 13. A sheet is conveyed by a conveyance mechanism including a roller pair and a belt along a sheet conveyance path indicated by a solid line in the drawing, and is processed in each unit. Note that at an arbitrary position in the sheet conveyance path from sheet supply to discharge, the side close to the sheet supply unit 1 is referred to as “upstream” and the opposite side is referred to as “downstream”.
The printing unit 4 is a sheet processing unit that forms an image by performing a printing process on the conveyed sheet from above with the print head 14. The printing unit 4 also includes a plurality of conveyance rollers that convey the sheet. The print head 14 has a line type print head in which an inkjet nozzle row is formed in a range that covers the maximum width of a sheet that is supposed to be used. The print head 14 has a plurality of print heads arranged in parallel along the transport direction. In this example, there are seven print heads corresponding to seven colors of C (cyan), M (magenta), Y (yellow), LC (light cyan), LM (light magenta), G (gray), and K (black). . The number of colors and the number of print heads are not limited to seven. As the inkjet method, a method using a heating element, a method using a piezo element, a method using an electrostatic element, a method using a MEMS element, or the like can be adopted. Each color ink is supplied from the ink tank to the print head 14 via an ink tube.
The cutter unit 6 is a unit having a cutter 20 that cuts a printed sheet into a predetermined length. The cutter 20 includes two mechanical cutters 20a and 20b. As will be described later, the blank area between the images formed on the sheet is efficiently cut off by the upstream cutter 20a and the downstream 20b. The cutter unit 6 further includes a cut mark sensor 19 for optically detecting a cut mark recorded on the sheet, a plurality of conveying rollers for feeding the sheet to the next step, and an edge used for skipping image reading. A sensor 21 is also provided. A trash can 17 is provided in the vicinity of the cutter unit 6. The trash box 17 accommodates small sheet pieces whose margin areas are cut off by the cutters 20a and 20b and discharged as trash. The cutter unit 6 is provided with a sorting mechanism for discharging the cut sheet to the trash box 17 or shifting it to the original conveyance path.
A mark reader 18 is provided between the skew correction unit 3 and the printing unit 4. The mark reader 18 is a reflective optical sensor that optically reads the reference mark recorded on the first surface of the sheet conveyed from the reversing unit 9 from the side opposite to the printing side. The mark reader 18 has a light source (for example, a white LED) that illuminates the sheet surface and a light receiver such as a photodiode or an image sensor that detects light from the illuminated sheet surface for each RGB component. The mark can be read by changing the signal level of the light receiver or by analyzing the image data.
(4) One sheet cut for each unit image is passed through the drying unit 8;
FIG. 3B is a diagram for explaining the operation in the duplex printing mode. In duplex printing, a back surface (second surface) print sequence is executed after a front surface (first surface) print sequence. In the first front surface print sequence, the operation in each unit from the sheet supply unit 1 to the inspection unit 5 is the same as the one-sided printing operation described above. The cutter unit 6 is conveyed to the drying unit 8 as a continuous sheet without performing a cutting operation. After the surface ink is dried by the drying unit 8, the sheet is guided not to the path on the discharge conveyance unit 10 (third path) but to the path on the reversing unit 9 (second path). In the second path, the sheet is wound around the winding rotary body of the reversing unit 9 that rotates in the forward direction (counterclockwise direction in the drawing). When all of the scheduled printing on the surface is completed in the printing unit 4, the trailing edge of the print area of the continuous sheet is cut by the cutter unit 6. With reference to the cutting position, the continuous sheet on the downstream side (printed side) in the conveying direction is wound up to the rear end (cutting position) of the sheet by the reversing unit 9 through the drying unit 8. On the other hand, at the same time as the winding, the continuous sheet remaining on the upstream side in the conveying direction (on the printing unit 4 side) with respect to the cutting position is not supplied to the decurling unit 2 at the sheet leading end (cutting position). 1 and the sheet is wound on roll R1 or R2. By this rewinding, collision with the sheet supplied again in the following back surface printing sequence is avoided.
(3) The sheet printed on the first surface is passed through the drying unit 8;
(10) One sheet cut for each unit image is passed through the drying unit 8;
Next, the sheet cutting operation for each unit image will be described in more detail. As described above, the sheet is cut for each unit image in the back side print sequence in the single-sided print mode or the double-sided print mode.
FIG. 4 shows an arrangement of a plurality of unit images (image A, image B, image C,...) That are sequentially printed on the sheet. In the example of FIG. 4A, image areas (100-1, 100-2, 100-3,...) And non-image areas (101-1, 101-2, 101-3,...) Are lined up alternately. Cut marks (102-1, 102-2, 102-3,...) Serving as a reference for cutting the sheet are formed in each non-image area. That is, a mark serving as a reference for cutting the sheet is formed in a region between adjacent unit images (referred to as a first image and a second image in this specification). In the example of FIG. 4B, print head maintenance (in addition to the cut mark 102) in the non-image areas (101-1, 101-2, 101-3,...) Between adjacent unit images. A maintenance pattern 103 for non-ejection inspection or the like is formed. In this example, the size of the unit images (image A, image B,...) In the sheet conveyance direction is larger than that in FIG. In the example of FIG. 4C, the maintenance pattern 103 is formed only in a part of the non-image area, and the size of the non-image area in the sheet conveyance direction is not uniform. In the above example, in order to facilitate understanding, the sizes of the plurality of unit images (image A, image B,...) In the sheet conveyance direction are drawn uniformly. Are mixed.
FIG. 5A is a diagram for explaining the principle of detecting a cut mark by the cut mark sensor 19 (mark detection unit). The cut mark sensor 19 is a small optical sensor having a light source and a light receiver. A spot light 110 of a predetermined size is illuminated from the light source on the sheet, and the cut mark 102-n is formed with ink on the sheet as a rectangular mark. A small semiconductor light source (LED, OLED, semiconductor laser, etc.) is suitable for the light source. For example, the light source is a red LED, and the cut mark 102-n is formed using black ink having a high light absorption distribution characteristic with respect to red. Although it is reasonable to use the print head 14 of the print unit 4 for forming the cut mark, a dedicated mark applying means is provided separately from the print unit 4 to provide a cut mark as a reference for cutting the sheet. You may make it form. In this case, the dedicated mark applying means may have a form in which a small hole is formed in the sheet and the mark is formed by the hole in addition to the form in which the ink is applied to form the mark. Since light does not reflect in the hole (reflectance is zero), it is equivalent to black ink, and the mark can be detected by the same optical sensor as described above.
In the sheet conveyance direction, the non-image area 101-n has a width of the dimension M. When the maintenance pattern 103 is included as shown in FIGS. 4B and 4C, the maintenance pattern 103 is defined as the non-image area 101-n, and the dimension M becomes larger. A blank area to which ink having a dimension W is not applied in the sheet conveyance direction is formed between the previous image area 100- (n-1) (first image) of the adjacent unit images and the cut mark 102-n. Has been. Hereinafter, this blank area is referred to as a first area, and the area of the cut mark 102-n is referred to as a second area. The presence of the blank first area between the first image and the second area facilitates the distinction between the first image and the cut mark 102-n. As will be described later, the dimension W and the dimension M are not uniform and may vary depending on the situation.
The lower graph in FIG. 5A shows the change in the output signal of the light receiver of the cut mark sensor 19. As the sheet moves, the non-image area 101 passes spot light (detection position) from the light source. At this time, as shown in the graph 120, the signal level of the detection output changes rapidly from high (white portion with high reflectance) to low (black portion with low reflectance). The degree of change (slope of the graph) is determined by the diameter of the spot light 110. A position corresponding to a timing at which the changing signal level falls below a preset threshold is detected as a mark position. Based on the detected mark position, sheet cutting positions by the cutter (cutting position 1 and cutting position 2 on the sheet) are set at two positions before and after the mark position. In the sheet conveyance direction, the interval between the cutting position 1 and the cutting position 2 is equal to or slightly larger than the dimension M of the non-image area 101.
FIG. 5B is a diagram for explaining a modified example of the cut mark mark formation. By forming a mark with black ink in the first area and leaving the second area blank, the signal level of the detection output is reversed from low (low reflectance black) to high (high reflectance white). It changes rapidly. That is, one of the first region and the second region may be a blank (white) to which ink is applied (black) and the other is not applied with ink. Further, since there is a difference in signal level between the first area and the second area if there is a contrast difference, not only black and white (blank) but one of them may be gray. Moreover, you may make it distinguish not only a density | concentration but a 1st area | region and a 2nd area | region by the difference in a color or a reflectance. That is, in the non-image area, the first area and the second area having a density, color, or reflectance different from those of the first area may be formed adjacent to each other along the sheet conveyance direction to form a mark. A mark can be detected by detecting that the output value of the light receiver changes when the first region and the second region sequentially pass through the position irradiated with the spot light. The reflectance here includes the case where a mark is formed by opening a hole in the sheet as described above. Since light passes through the hole without reflection, the reflectivity is substantially zero, and the mark is optically distinguishable because it differs from the reflectivity of the portion without the hole.
The detection of the cut mark by the cut mark sensor 19 is not performed constantly during the printing operation, but only during a limited period in which the center of the first area of the sheet is estimated to pass the detection position of the cut mark sensor 19. That is, the image is skipped without detecting the cut mark during the period in which the image region is estimated to pass the detection position. The estimation is performed by calculating from the size of the image region 100-n and the size of the non-image region 101-n. This prevents the cut mark sensor 19 from detecting a pattern in the image area and misidentifying it as a cut mark.
FIG. 6 is a diagram for explaining the sheet cutting operation. An edge sensor 21 for detecting the end of the sheet is provided in the vicinity of the upstream of the detection position of the cut mark sensor 19. The leading edge of the moving sheet is detected by the edge sensor 21 (see FIG. 6A). Starting from this detection, the detection is skipped so that the cut mark is not detected for a predetermined distance or time. At least while the distance sheet corresponding to the dimension of the image A in the sheet conveying direction moves, skipping without performing mark detection.
When the skip is completed, mark detection is started by the cut mark sensor 19 with that as the detection start position. The cut mark 102 on the moving sheet is detected by the cut mark sensor 19 (see FIG. 6B). Based on this detection, a cutting position 1 for cutting with the first cutter 20a and a cutting position 2 for cutting with the second cutter 20b are set before and after the cut mark sensor 19. When the set cutting position 1 comes to the cutting position of the first cutter 20a, the sheet conveyance is temporarily stopped locally. The sheet conveyance is stopped only in the cutter unit 6, and the sheet conveyed from the upstream while the sheet is stopped is absorbed by the buffer between the inspection unit 5 and the cutter unit 6 because the sheet sags and is absorbed. The sheet transport at this does not stop. The sheet whose conveyance has been stopped is cut at the cutting position 1 by the first cutter 20a. By this cutting, the sheet is divided into a cut sheet portion having one image A followed by one non-image region, and a continuous sheet portion in which images after the image B are continuous (see FIG. 6C).
After cutting, sheet conveyance of the cut sheet portion is resumed. When the previously set cutting position 2 reaches the cutting position of the second cutter 20b, the sheet conveyance is temporarily stopped locally. Then, the sheet is cut at the cutting position 2 by the second cutter 20b. By this cutting, the non-image area of the cut sheet portion is cut off, and only the image remains (state shown in FIG. 6D). The cut non-image area is discarded as a sheet piece in the trash box 17.
Thereafter, the conveyance of the cut sheet portion of the image A and the subsequent continuous sheet portion is resumed, and the cutting of the images B, C,.
In the present embodiment, the operations of the first cutter 20a and the second cutter 20b are controlled based on the detection signal of the common cut mark sensor 19, but the first cutter 20a and the second cutter 20b A dedicated cut mark sensor may be provided for each.
FIG. 7 is a diagram for more specifically explaining the skip of mark detection. If the leading edge of the sheet (the end of the image A) is detected by the edge sensor 21, a skip is made so that no mark is detected in the area of the image A. The skip distance is the distance between the edge sensor 21, the cut mark sensor 19 and the first cutter 20a, the dimension L of the image A, the dimension W of the first area, the dimension M of the non-image area, and the spot light of the cut mark sensor 19. The diameter S can be obtained.
Here, the distance from the detection position of the edge sensor 21 to the detection position of the cut mark sensor 19 (spot light center) is C 0 , and the cut of the first cutter 20a from the detection position of the cut mark sensor 19 (spot light center). a distance to a position a C 1. The dimension of the cut mark 102 in the sheet conveyance direction (the dimension of the second region) is MW. Since it is sufficient that the diameter S of the spot light falls within the cut mark, MW = S here. The distance at which the sheet is transported from the detection of the sheet by the edge sensor 21 to the start of mark detection is set to C 0 + L + W / 2 when the detection start position is set to the center (= W / 2) of the first region. It becomes. This is the distance to skip. The position where the detection is skipped is a position away from the end of the image A by W / 2 downstream. The detection range where the detection is continued after the mark detection is started is W / 2 + S as a range where the cut mark can be sufficiently read from the mark detection start position. Note that the detection start position is set to the center (= W / 2) of the first area, and is only an example, and may be set to a predetermined position in the first area. In addition, the detection range is set to W / 2 + S, and the detection range may be a range that covers at least the second region.
Theoretically, the dimensional relationship is as described above. However, in reality, a margin is provided in consideration of various error components such as a sheet conveyance amount error, an image size error, various component assembly errors, and a sensor detection error. It is preferable. If no error is taken into account, there is a possibility that mark detection cannot be performed accurately due to a misalignment between the mark detection start position and the mark on the actually conveyed sheet. Therefore, the detection skip distance is obtained by adding various errors to the above theoretical distance.
Among various errors, in particular, the sheet conveyance amount error and the image size error increase or decrease in accordance with the size of the image to be printed, and these errors can increase as the image size increases. Therefore, the dimension W of the first region in the non-image region is changed according to the length of the immediately preceding image (first image). The larger the dimension L of the first image, the larger the dimension W of the first region in order to increase the margin for absorbing errors. As the dimension W changes, the mark detection start position (W / 2 downstream from the end of the image A) and the detection range (W / 2 + S) also change.
As a margin for absorbing the error, the correction value H is added to the theoretical standard dimension W of the first region in accordance with the dimension L of the immediately preceding image A. Of the various errors, if the error component that changes depending on the image size is α, and the error component that the device has regardless of the image size is β, the correction value H is H = α + β. Since the error component α can be expressed as a value L × K obtained by multiplying the dimension L of the image A by a coefficient K, the correction value H becomes H = L × K + β using this.
FIG. 8 shows an example of printing when a plurality of image sizes are mixed. It is assumed that the dimension L A of the image A , the dimension L B of the image B , and the dimension L C of the image C have a relationship of L B > L A > L C in the sheet conveyance direction. At this time, the dimension W A of the first area in the non-image area following the image A , the dimension W B of the first area in the non-image area following the image B, and the first area in the non-image area following the image C When the dimension W C is compared, a relationship of W B > W A > W C is obtained. Therefore, the mark detection start position also increases in the order of the image C, the image A, and the image B from the edge of the immediately preceding image. Also, the detection range of mark detection increases in the order of image C, image A, and image B.
Note that the size of the first image may be divided into groups of different size ranges, and the size of the corresponding non-image area may be assigned to each group. A larger non-image area is assigned to a larger size range group. In this case, non-image areas of the same size are formed for images of different sizes included in the range of a certain group.
As described above, even if the error component increases as the image size increases, a larger margin can be taken in anticipation of the error component. Therefore, the cut mark can be reliably detected regardless of the image size. From another viewpoint, since the margin can be reduced when the image size is small, the number of images that can be printed on one continuous roll sheet increases. In other words, the amount of sheet pieces to be discarded can be reduced.
