Abstract

PURPOSE:To save energy consumption by performing ON-OFF control of a bar code reading part with the aid of the output of a touch sensor detecting the operation of an operator. CONSTITUTION:When a bar code hand scanner is not used, a touch sensor part 4 is not operated, and an LED control part 2 does not receive a detection signal from the touch sensor part 4. So, the LED control part 2 controls the LED of a bar code reading part 1 to be a non-emission state. When an operator holds the bar code hand scanner and starts operation, the touch sensor part 4 detects this and transmits the detection signal to the LED control part 2, the LED is controlled to an emission state, and the reading operation of the bar code is performed. When the operator leaves his hand from the bar code scanner, the LED is turned off again, and the energy consumption can be saved.

Description

【発明の詳細な説明】 技術分野 本発明はバーコードハンドスキャナに関し、特にバーコ
ード読取部の制御に関するものである。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION Technical Field The present invention relates to a barcode hand scanner, and particularly to control of a barcode reading section.

従来技術 従来のバーコードハンドスキャナにおいては、バーコー
ドを読取るバーコード読取用のＬＥＤ（発光ダイオード

Ｄ制御部２はバーコード読取部１のＬＥＤを未発光状態
に制御する。When the barcode hand scanner is not in use, the touch sensor section 4 is operated, so the LED control section 2 does not receive a detection signal from the touch sensor section 4. For that purpose, L.E.
The D control section 2 controls the LED of the barcode reading section 1 to a non-emission state.

電力化が図れる。On the other hand, when the operator holds and operates the barcode hand scanner, the touch sensor section 4 detects this and sends a detection signal to the LED control section 2. As a result, the LED is controlled to emit light, and the barcode reading operation is performed. When the operator takes his hand off the barcode hand scanner, the LED turns off again to save power.
