Abstract

PURPOSE:To perform batch imprinting without increasing the number of segments by winding a film by only specified amount in one frame, then stopping the film once, after imprinting one of both data, at the time of photographing as printing data. CONSTITUTION:An imprinting driving part 5 is driven and controlled by means of a control system 7 which controls a camera sequence. In the control system 7, it is connected with an exposure control and exposure completion signal generating part 8, exposure starting signal generating part 9, and imprinting mode signal generating part 10. The exposure starting signal generating part 9 is, for example, a release signal obtained from a shutter release mechanism; in response to this exposure starting signal, the control system 7 controls exposure by means of the exposure control and exposure completion signal generating part; at the end of exposure, the system 7 outputs a control signal to the imprinting driving part 5 in response to an exposure completion signal from the exposure control and exposure completion signal generating part 8, and ultimately an imprinting part 4 imprints imprinting data.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to an electric camera equipped with a data imprinting device capable of imprinting "year, month, day" and "hour and minute" data on film during photographing. Regarding.

[Prior art] In the conventional day-to-day 9-inclusive device, when the data 8-inclusive mode is selected, the "year, month, day" data or "hour and minute" data selected by the photographer in advance are displayed along with the shadow. By displaying the ``year, month, day,'' or ``hour and minute'' on the completed photo, it is easy to see when it is dark and when looking at the photo when organizing or reviewing the photo. .

By the way, there are two types of data imprinting devices: one is to use a liquid crystal segment or the like to imprint the imprint data all at once while the film is stopped, and the other is to imprint multiple light emitting elements in a line perpendicular to the film feeding direction. A method is known in which data is captured by controlling light emitting elements arranged in an array and synchronized with film advance.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] However, in a method that uses a liquid crystal segment or the like to capture data all at once while the film is stopped, the device configuration can be simplified because only the captured segments need be controlled. However, because the number of segments in the recording area is limited, there are few data that can be captured at the same time. The person can select and take a photo.

On the other hand, in a method that captures data by controlling the light emission of multiple light emitting elements arranged in a line in synchronization with the film advance, the data capture range can cover the entire frame of the film, and it is possible to and "hours and minutes" can be captured at the same time. However, since the light emitting elements must be controlled in synchronization with the film advance, an encoder to accurately detect the film advance and a circuit to convert the imprint data to dot line data are required, making the device configuration complex and increasing costs. become.

The present invention has been made in view of these conventional problems, and it is possible to collectively collect data in an amount exceeding the number of segments using a single recording section while the film is stopped, without increasing the number of segments in the recording section. An object of the present invention is to provide a camera equipped with a data imprinting device capable of imprinting data.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve this object, in the present invention, at least "year, month, and day" data and at least "hour and minute" data can be selected as the imprint data to be imprinted on the film. In a camera equipped with a data recording device capable of collectively recording the selected data with a single recording section while the film is stopped, one of the above two data, for example, "Year After capturing the "month/day" data during shooting, the film is wound by a predetermined 11/n within one frame, and then the captured data is switched to the other "hour/minute" data and the film is captured. Wind up the remaining 1-(1/n) of one piece.

Also, as imprint data, one of the two data, for example "hours and minutes"
After capturing the data, move the film to the specified ff1 within 1@.
1/n [After rewinding the film, switch to the other "year, month, and day" data and take a picture, and after this take the film, rewind the film.
It is also possible to wind it by an amount of 1+(1/n), which is 1/n plus 1 frame.

Furthermore, in the case of a rewind camera in which the entire film is wound from the cartridge to the spool when loading the film, and the film is rewound one frame at a time as the photograph is taken, data such as ``year, month, and day'' is imprinted as the photograph is taken. Later, after rewinding the film by 1/n of one frame, switching to "hour/minute" data and shooting, and after this shooting, rewinding the film to the remaining 1 frame of 1-(1/n>
It may also be possible to rewind.

[Function] In the electric camera equipped with the data capture device of the present invention having such a configuration, the capture section captures only either "year, month, day" data or "hour/minute" data. Even if the number of segments is not possible, it is possible to imprint twice the amount of data to be imprinted.
Since the "hour and minute" data can be printed side by side as printing data, and the conventional printing section can be used almost as is, the device configuration is simple and the cost can be reduced.

[Example] FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing one embodiment of the present invention.

In FIG. 1, reference numeral 1 denotes a film, which is pulled out from a cartridge 2 and wound into a spool 3 during photographing.

Here, as shown in FIG. 2, the film 1 is shown with the camera turned upside down and seen through from the back side.

A broken rectangular frame 1a shown in the film 1 indicates one frame of the film at the position when it is exposed to light during photographing. An imprinting section 4 is provided in the back cover facing the lower left corner of one photographed frame 1a of the film 1, and the imprinting section 4 has "year, month, and date".
It has a structure in which, for example, six liquid crystal seven segments are arranged in the feeding direction of the film 1 in accordance with the maximum data amount determined by the data. The segments of the imprinting section 4 are driven by the imprinting driving section 5, and at the same time, the imprinting data by the imprinting driving section 5 is displayed on the imprinting data display section 6. The imprint data display section 6 is provided on the back cover of the camera as shown in FIG.

The imaging drive unit 5 includes a control system 7 that performs camera sequence control.
The drive is controlled by For control system 7, exposure control and
An exposure completion signal generation section 8, an exposure start signal generation section 9, and a photography mode signal generation section 10 are connected. The exposure start signal generator 9 is, for example, a release signal obtained from the shutter release gl, and in response to this exposure start signal, the control system 7 causes the exposure control/exposure completion signal generator to perform exposure control σV, and when the exposure is completed, the exposure is completed. When an exposure completion signal is received from the control/exposure completion signal generating section 8, a control signal is output to the imaging drive section 5 to cause the imaging section 4 to imprint the imaging data.

Further, the photography mode signal generating section 10 is provided with a photography mode changeover switch, and each time the photography mode changeover signal 17 is output, the control system 7 changes the mode to, for example, the "Year, Month, Day" mode, the "U Hour, Minute" mode, the "Year, Month, Date" mode, The hour/minute J mode and "non-imprint" mode are cyclically switched, and in response to this mode switching of the imprint data, the imprint data corresponding to the setting mode at that time is displayed on the imprint data display section 6. . In the "non-imprint" mode, no data is displayed on the imprint data display section 6, or a broken line or the like is displayed.

Further, the control system 7 is provided with a winding drive section 11 for electrically driving the spool 3 and a rewinding drive section 12 for electrically driving the cartridge 2. Electric winding and electric rewinding by the control system 7 are performed in addition to the normal one-frame winding and rewinding when the end of the film is detected in response to r-shading, and when the "Year, Month, Day, Child, Hour, Minute" mode is selected, exposure When the completion signal is obtained, first the "year, month, and day" data, for example r87 12 2
5J is copied from the copying unit 4 onto the lower left corner of the photographing frame 1a, which is at the photographing position indicated by the broken line on the film 1, and then the winding drive unit 11 is driven to move the film 1 by a predetermined amount within 1#l. , for example, wind up 1/n of one frame and move it to the position of photographing frame 1b shown by the solid line, and after winding up this 1/n frame and stop it once, capture "hour and minute" data, for example r20-43J, "
After completing the imprinting of the hour and minute data, the remaining 1-(1/n
> The camera will be wound by viJ and will be ready for the next shooting.

FIG. 3 is a flowchart showing mode switching of imprint data in the embodiment of FIG.

This switching of the shooting mode is performed in response to generation of a shooting mode switching signal by operating a mode changeover switch provided in the shooting mode signal generating section 10.

For example, if a photo mode switching signal is generated while the "year, month, day" mode is currently selected, the flow shown in Figure 3 is executed, and first, in step S1, it is checked whether the "year, month, day" mode is currently selected. Since the mode is currently in the "year, month, and day" mode, the process advances to step S2, where the photographing mode is switched to the "hour, minute" mode, and the "hour, minute" data is displayed on the photographing data display section 6.

Next, when the photographing mode switching signal is generated, since the mode has been switched to the "hour, minute" mode by the previous processing, the "hour, minute" mode is determined in step S3, and the process proceeds to step S4. The mode is switched to "minute" mode, and in this case, the imprinted data display section 6 alternately displays "year, month, day" data and "hour/minute" data at short intervals, for example, every second.

If the 5-inclusive mode switching signal is generated again while switching to the "Year, Month, Day, Child, Hour, Minute" mode, "
The "year, month, date, child, hour, minute" mode is determined and the process proceeds to step S6, where the mode is switched to the "non-imprint" mode. In this case, the imprint data display section 6 is switched to either no display or a broken line display.

Further, if a photo mode switching signal is generated while the "non-photographing" mode is switched, the "non-photographing" mode is determined in step S7, and the process proceeds to step S8, where the mode is switched to the "date" mode and the photographing mode is switched. The data display section 6 will now display "year, month, and day J data."

For this reason, each time the shadow mode is switched by the shadow person, the modes are cyclically switched between "year, month, day,""hour,minute,""year, month, day, child, hour, minute," and "non-imaging" mode.

FIG. 4 is a flowchart showing data imprint control in the embodiment of FIG. This data imprinting control is executed by an interrupt when an exposure completion signal is obtained from the exposure control/exposure completion signal generation section 8.

That is, when the exposure completion signal is generated by 1q in conjunction with a shadow, the flow shown in FIG. 4 is executed by interruption, and first, in step S1, it is checked whether or not the current mode is "year, month, day". If the current capture mode is "Year, Month, Day" mode, switch the capture data to "Year, Month, Day" data in Step $2 and copy, Step S3. Pass S4 and S5 and proceed to step S11,
The film is wound by one frame and the process ends.

= On the other hand, if the "hour/minute" mode is currently selected, the process advances from step S3 to step S4, the imprint data is switched to "hour/minute" data and the image is captured, and the process similarly advances to step 311, where the film is wound by one frame. and completes the process.

Furthermore, when the "year, month, date, hour, minute" mode is selected, the process proceeds from step S5 to 86, where "hour and minute" data is first stored. In the case of the embodiment shown in FIG. 1, the "year, month, and day" data is stored first in step S6, so there is a time lag until the next "hour, minute" data is imprinted. In order to prevent this, the "hour and minute" data at the time the exposure signal was generated is temporarily stored and retained.

Subsequently, in step S7, the image data is changed to "year, month, and day" data and imaged, and in step S8, the film is wound by 1/n frame. Next, in step S9, the data to be captured is changed to the "hour/minute" data stored in step S6 and captured, and in step SIO, the remaining film, that is, 1-(1/n) frames of the film are finally captured. Wind it up and finish the process.

Although the "hour/minute" data is stored in step S6 of FIG. 4, if the time lag until the "hour/minute" data is imprinted is not a problem, the process of step S6 is not necessary. .

In addition, in the above embodiment, when the shooting completion signal is generated, "hours and minutes" are displayed.
Although the data is stored (step S6 in Fig. 4), another method is to convert it into data after subtracting the time required to wind up 1/n frames (a predetermined time) before printing. .

FIG. 5 is a block diagram showing another embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, "hour and minute" data is first captured during photographing, and then the film is rewound by 1/n frame. It is characterized by the ability to include "year, month, and day" data.

That is, the embodiment shown in FIG. 5 is structurally different from the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 in that the imprinting section 4 is arranged at the lower right corner of the photographing frame 1a at the photographing position indicated by the broken line.

FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing data imprint control according to the embodiment of FIG.

In FIG. 6, "year, month, and day" shown in steps 81 to S4
mode or “hour/minute” mode, data imprinting is done in the first
This is the same as the embodiment shown in the figure.

On the other hand, when it is determined in step S5 that the mode is "year, month, day, hour, minute", the process proceeds to step S6, where the imprint data is first switched to "hour, minute" data and then imprinted.

Subsequently, in step S7, the film is rewound by 1/n frames,
Proceeding to step S8, the imprint data is changed to "year, month, and day" data and is imprinted. Next, in step S9, the film is
+(1/n> By winding the film evenly, it is ready for the next shooting.

The feature of the embodiment shown in FIG. 5 shown in the flowchart of FIG. It has the advantage that there is no time lag, and that "hour and minute" data can be captured without having to be stored.

In addition, in the embodiments shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, it becomes impossible to wind the film in the middle of the last film frame, so "hour and minute" data cannot be captured.
, 6, it is possible to record "hour and minute" data even on the last film frame.

FIG. 7 is a block diagram showing another embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, when loading the film, the cartridge 2 is
The present invention is characterized in that the present invention is applied to a rewinding method in which the entire film 1 is wound onto the spool 3 from the start, and then the film 1 is rewound frame by frame from the spool 3 onto the cartridge 2 at the end of the screen.

Further, the arrangement of the imprinting section 4 is similar to that of the embodiment shown in FIG. 5, and is opposed to the lower right corner of the frame 1a at the photographing position indicated by the broken line.

FIG. 8 is a flowchart showing the data imprinting control according to the embodiment of FIG. Same as the embodiment, but steps 85-
The processing in S9 is different.

That is, when the "Year, Month, Sun, Dry, Hour, Minute" mode is determined in step S5, the image data is changed to "1 hour" in step S6.
The camera changes to data and takes a picture, and in the next step S7, the film is rewound by 1/n frames. Next, in step S8, the photographing data is changed to "year, month, and date" data, and the photograph is taken.Finally, in step S, the film is rewound by an equal portion of 1-(1/n) and used for the next photograph. .

Even in the embodiment shown in FIG. 7 which adopts this rewind method, since the "hour and minute" data is recorded first, the first
, 4, there is no problem of time lag in the embodiments shown in FIGS.

In addition, in the embodiments shown in Figures 1 and 4, it becomes impossible to wind the film in the middle of the last film frame, so "hour and minute" data cannot be captured. In the example, even if it is the last film frame, "hours and minutes" are displayed.
Data can be captured, and the "hour and minute" data will also reflect the actual time when the shooting was completed.

Furthermore, in the embodiments shown in Figs. 5 and 6, there is a problem that the time required to wind the film in the "year, month, day, hour, minute" mode becomes longer; however, in the embodiments shown in Figs. 7 and 8, this problem is not solved. There are no such problems.

Note that the above example uses "year, month, day" data and/or "hour/minute" data.
Although data imprinting has been taken as an example, it goes without saying that "year, month, day" data and/or "hour, minute, second" data may be imprinted as other embodiments.

Also, step S7 in FIG. 4, step S8 in FIG.
It goes without saying that the timing of switching the photographic data in step S8 of FIG. 8 is not limited to that in the embodiment, and may be immediately after data 8 is included during photographing, or during subsequent film winding or rewinding.

Furthermore, it may be possible to use a device that cannot imprint only the "hour and minute" data, but can only imprint both the "year, month, day" and "year, month, day, hour, and minute" data.

FIG. 9(A) is a block diagram showing an embodiment of the present invention.

In this embodiment, the imaging section 4 is arranged so that it is located at the center of the lower part of the photographic frame 1a that is drawn onto the film 1, and furthermore, when the film reaches its end, it becomes impossible to wind it. a termination detection signal generating section 14 that detects this and generates a termination detection signal;
The other configuration is the same as the embodiment shown in FIG. 1.

In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. In the shooting mode for "minute" data, first record the "year, month, and day" data, and then set film 1 to 1/1/2.

FIGS. 10(A) and 10(B) are flowcharts showing data imprint control according to the embodiment shown in FIG. 9 (A>(B)).

First, in FIG. 10 (A>), the imprinting of the 1 year, month, and day data or the hour and minute data from steps $1 to S4 is the same as in the embodiment of FIG. 1.

If the "year, month, day, hour, minute" mode is determined in step S5, the process advances to step S6 to store the "hour and minute" data, and then in step S7, the imprint data is Then, in step S8, the film is wound by 1/n frame. Next, the process advances to step S9 in FIG. 10(B), and the film winding amount F is set to 1/
It is checked whether an end detection signal is generated before n frames are reached.

Since the end detection signal is not generated during normal shooting, the process proceeds to step S10, where the image data is switched to "hour/minute" data and the image is captured. In step S11, film 1 is
/n) Evenly distributed winding. In step 312, it is checked whether or not the end has been detected. If the end has not been detected, the series of processes is terminated.

On the other hand, in step S7 of FIG. 10(A), the imprint data is
10 (B
), if the end of the film is detected before the film winding mF reaches 1/n frames, the process proceeds to step 313, where the film is rewound by an amount equal to 1/n frames added to the current winding ff1F. Proceeding to step S14, the photographing data is switched to "hour/minute" data and photographed, and then, in step 315, the film is rewound.

On the other hand, in step S5 of FIG. 10 (△>), the current mode is "
If the mode is not “Year, Month, Day, Child, Hour, Minute”, step 816
Step 317 advances to step 317, where the film is wound for one frame without data imprinting, and when end detection has not been performed at step 317, the series of processing is completed as shown by ■ in FIG. 10(B). , On the other hand, when the termination is detected in step 317, step S1 in FIG. 10(B)
Proceed to step 5 to wind the film.

FIG. 11 (A>) is a block diagram showing another embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, similarly to the embodiment of FIG. It is further provided with an end detection signal generating section 14 which detects when the film has reached the end and winding is no longer possible and generates an end detection signal. The present invention is characterized in that it is provided with a just-before-termination signal generating section 16 that detects that it is approaching and generates a just-before-termination signal.

The signal generating section 16 just before the end includes means for reading frame number information indicating how many films are loaded in the camera from the DX code provided on the surface of the film cartridge, and means for reading the number of frames that have been photographed from the film counter. a means for reading information on the number of photographed frames indicating the number of frames, a means for calculating the number of unphotographed frames by comparing the information on the number of frames to be photographed and information on the number of photographed frames; value, for example 21

Until the signal just before the end is generated, the "
Then, on top of the image of the ``year, month, and day'' data, film 1 is wound 1/n frame and the ``hour and minute'' data is imprinted.

On the other hand, when the last-minute signal is generated from the last-minute signal generating section 16, as shown in FIG. 11(B), along with the shooting,
First, the "hour/minute" data is captured, and after the "hour/minute" data is captured, the film 1 is rewound 1/n frame and the "year/month/day" data is captured.

When the end detection signal is generated from the end detection signal generator 14 in the copying control state shown in FIG. 11(B), the film 1 is electrically rewound from the spool 3 onto the cartridge 2.

In addition, instead of the DX code reading means provided in the signal generating section 16 just before the end of FIG. Alternatively, the signal immediately before the end may be generated upon detecting that the number of photographed frames has reached 12 frames.

FIG. 12 (A>(B)) is a flowchart showing data 5-inclusive control according to the embodiment of FIG. 11.

In FIG. 12 (A>), the imprinting of "year, month, day" data or "hour/minute" data in steps 81 to S4 is the same as in the embodiment of FIG. 1.

When it is determined in step S5 that the current mode is the "Year, Month, Day, Child, Hour, Minute" mode, the process proceeds to Step S6 to check whether or not the last point has been detected. '' data is stored, and in the next step S8, the imprint data is changed to ``year, month, and day'' data in accordance with the 1ltij shadow, and the data is imprinted.In step S9, the film is wound for 1/n frame, and as shown in FIG.

In preparation for this, the series of processes is completed through the end detection check in step S12.

On the other hand, if immediately before the end is detected in step S6 of FIG. '' data is switched and imprinted, the film is rewound by 1/nTGJ in step S16, and after this rewinding, the process proceeds to step 317 in FIG. 12(B) and the imprint data is changed to ``year, month, day'' data. Step 8
At step 18, the film is wound evenly by 1+ (1/n) in preparation for the next shooting. If end detection is determined in step S12 during film winding in step 81B, the process proceeds to step 313, where the film is electrically rewound.

Of course, in step S5 of FIG. 12 (A>), the current mode is set to "
When the mode is other than "Year, Month, Sun, Hour, Minute" mode, that is, when no capture mode is set, the process advances to step 319 and the film is wound for one frame without data capture, as shown in FIG. In step S12 of (B), it is checked whether or not the end has been detected. If the end has not been detected, the series of processing is terminated. If the end has been detected, the film is electrically rewound in step 813. .

FIG. 13(A) is a block diagram showing another embodiment of the present invention. The present invention is characterized in that a final frame signal generating section 18 is provided in place of the section 16.

The final frame signal generating section 18 has a function of generating a final frame signal when it is detected that the film 1 has reached the final frame. This R end signal generating section 18 is a means for reading frame number information indicating how many sheets of film are loaded in the camera from the DX code provided on the surface of the film cartridge, and from the film counter. A means for reading information on the number of photographed frames indicating the #I number, a means for calculating the number of unphotographed frames by comparing the total pA number information and information on the number of pupil shadowed frames, and a means for calculating the number of unphotographed frames remaining. It consists of means for generating a final piece signal when the number reaches zero.

In this embodiment, in the normal i-shadow until the final frame signal is generated, "year, month, and day" data is imprinted as shown in FIG. 13 (△), After imprinting the month and day data, the film 1 is wound 1/n frame and the hour and minute data is imprinted.

Proceeding to step S15 in FIG. 14(B), the photographing data is changed to "year, month, and day" data and photographed, and in step 316, the film is electrically rewound.

The amount of winding and rewinding of the film in the embodiment shown in Fig. 9.11.13 can be detected by detecting the amount of winding or rewinding, for example, from the rotation of a sprocket that rotates following the film. Appropriate detection means can be used, such as a detection means or a photoelectric detection means for photoelectrically detecting the number of passages of the par 74 rays of the film.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, according to the present invention, a camera equipped with a data capture device capable of capturing data selected at once while the film is stopped by a single capture unit. , it is possible to print data that exceeds the number of segments determined by the number of segments without increasing the number of segments in the printing section, such as "year, month, day" data and "hour/minute" data, which can be printed side by side. Since the number of segments in the part is hardly increased or the conventional imprinting part can be used as is, the mounting structure is simple and the cost is low.

Furthermore, by increasing the number of segments in the imprinting section, it is possible to imprint many other numbers and characters.
