It is possible to read and digitize automatically if necessary.

Disadvantages of each of the above-mentioned known methods or devices include the fact that each method or device may be very specific or may be designed as a one-off product, thus limiting its use. Alternatively, these methods or devices require or possess extensive specialized knowledge and expensive equipment, which further requires significant expense.

It is an object of the present invention to accurately and easily record and copy arbitrary representations using numerically controllable writing or drawing machines and with low-cost equipment, and in accordance with individual printing methods. 9 selected by manual or mechanical operation, i.e. automatically by manual operation or numerical control, scanned as the same as the multiplication table or as a modified multiplication table;
and at the same time to create a rounding device that implements the rounding method and the armpit method, which can be carried out in an economical manner at different times or at different times.

The above objects are achieved according to the invention by means of a method according to the features set forth in claim 1 and a method according to claim 4.
l! OII patent claim 11 is achieved by A configuration.
The term 4 ha which shows the mercenary theory aspect described in 1 shows the formation or modification of the idea of the present invention.

A particularly advantageous apparatus for carrying out a method and a skeleton method is thus proposed, in which a first given nine representations are scanned and acquired selectively by manual or automatic operation. It is possible to '&'. The numbers of the scanned round lines obtained in the above-described operation and which have already been corrected if necessary are then digitized - or at the same time as they are scanned. That is, it is decomposed into a large number of points, and the ! of those points is decomposed into many points. - and y-coordinate values are determined and noted.

Rounding, which reduces the need to write down these numbers, leaves them to the processing of at least one calculator, which usually reduces the number of data actually stored in the FCE. Preferably, two treatments are carried out, the second treatment possibly making all or part of the first treatment unnecessary. The output of the data obtained or recorded by the above processing is automatically determined by force units or force output elements provided in the equipment, and is determined to be kept unchanged and the contours and representations are Some symbols or explanatory text are reasonably reproducible.

There is also a further possibility of copying, in which manual or automatic table scanning is optionally carried out, i.e. it is also possible to selectively perform automatic or manual scanning, i.e. to make complete copies as diagrams, documents, etc. Both recording and copying can then be alternated at will, and between recording and copying additional values, data, which can be entered or called up directly or via the keyboard or via the keyboard. or commands etc. are issued or carried out in turn, and copies are thus made in accordance with the respective wishes or purposes or the choices of the user.

If information regarding line thickness and line type (e.g. dashed lines, dot-dashed lines, hatched lines, freehand lines, etc.) is recorded and noted during scanning, these values can be used to determine the required drafting elements. It is additionally possible that the selection and faithful copying of . Using the values scanned along a line, the scanning unit is automatically manipulated and the calculation of coordinates is performed in an omniscient manner.

If the processing of the calculator is carried out in the drying step, the coordinate values obtained after scanning are input into the first data storage device (the above-mentioned storage device for intermediate data storage), and then the first Advantageously, the data are transferred to a computer for processing and subsequently provided in a separate data storage device (large-capacity storage device).

The second operation of the calculator is then carried out at any later time, immediately prior to copying, with any corrections by keyboard or otherwise, if necessary. The initial computer processing that reduces the number of data significantly reduces the spatial volume of a mass storage device, thus allowing the mass storage device to be economically sized. The data reduction is increased again (by the second processing step of the calculator),
In this way, a copy of the actually scanned line or figure is made. During the processing of the calculator, it is possible to compare rounding, scanned Oki numerals, symbols or similar representations with the recorded data inventory and recognize and mark matches, which streamlines the recording requirements. or selected to be recorded in a reduced form with a special code.

Similarly, scanned lines or contours are classified or attached during processing by the calculator, and are thus classified, for example, as straight lines, circles, parabolic lines, squares or other polygons, or symmetrical figures, or as vertical lines. , reflection lines, dimension lines, perspective views, etc.) Kllml and symbols are attached. Upon call, these are optionally copied along with the numeric value determining the size and/or the numeric value determining the position. Similarly,
the size, position or other changes of the scanned representation, as the case may be, irrespective of the same or similar changes in recall and output; It is possible that the scale, direction or position is already carried out by computer processing.

The individual operating steps, commands or representations of the calculator can be called up or selected, in whole or in part, by means of different keys, 411 and symbol keys, thereby making it possible to carry out the work particularly efficiently. It is possible to implement it. Additionally, the voiced or written expressions can be connected to a calculator and displayed on the screen, if necessary, especially for alphabetic operations involving numbers. keys) changes, replenishments or otherwise.

Manual scanning or input of coordinate values may be difficult, especially if the linear properties are insufficient to be reliably captured by the scanning unit, or if the original is, for example, a plastic representation or a three-dimensional representation. This becomes a problem when automatic scanning or input is impossible or impractical due to inappropriate expressions or for other reasons.

According to the invention, scanning and copying are carried out on the same writing or drawing machine or equipment, in particular on the same machine parts.
In particular, this is carried out using a device attached to the vehicle chassis. The scanning unit and the copying unit may also be different mechanical parts,
It is also possible, for example, for the bottles to be mounted on two carriages, arranged separately and movable in at least 42 directions independently of one another, but this is particularly true in the case of dual operation, i.e. for collecting and copying. This is possible if both are done at the same time and the desk provides enough space for it. The method according to the invention and the device for carrying out the coughing method are suitable for completing, modifying or changing already existing representations, technical drawings, blueprints, diagrams, bill of materials, documents, forms, etc. suitable for. The creation and completion of such a representation can then be carried out at the shoulder and, if necessary, in parallel with the copying of the device. A particularly important element is that all or part of the method of the invention or the representations scanned by the operating system or the symbols or other representations marked down for carrying out the method are individually different from other representations. with 11 in its original form or in a modified form - e.g. abstracted 1'll1
lC One symbol carrier - for example a dot and one symbol carrier formed in a foil - is marked with a symbol or company code and then the keys are placed on one side and used as an authority for the respective key, so that When creating a program that reaches the code Kll, the formed 9th expression will not be transformed or modified by pressing the Tun key, etc., and will work as desired.
It is found in the size, orientation distortion, or other expressions that can be called.

The apparatus of the present invention may be regarded as a numerically controllable writing or drawing machine; An external central unit or a complete external mDma installation directly behind the connection point or disconnection point has at least one scanning unit, one output unit and a drafting unit, in which case four scanning units Power units also include devices for automatic operation, i.e. devices for automatic operation and devices for normal motor drive, while scanning units can additionally be operated manually or immediately manually. The drawing unit or the corresponding writing unit is exclusively useful for manual copying of the representation. this! ! For this purpose, the drawing unit is preferably arranged in such a way that it can be pivoted out of its fixed position or removed, thereby providing automatic operation. The time of drafting is freed and the weight of the moving parts is reduced.

The device of the present invention has, in addition to a keyboard for inputting alphabets including numerical values, for a calculator provided near or on the vehicle chassis, a symbol key linked via an operating unit, It would be particularly advantageous if, by means of a key, any representation symbol and action could be called up quickly, simply and from any location via any symbol carrier created by the user himself.

For monitoring the installation and optionally interfering with it or indicating its progress, etc., the device of the present invention has a picture screen and /i or an acoustic annunciation device as control devices. The picture image can also be used simultaneously as a symbol carrier, provided that it is correspondingly arranged and attached or can be attached to a suitable symbol keyboard.

The scanning unit consists in particular of two systems that operate independently of each other. That is, crosshairs or other optical, mechanical, acoustic, or other marking aids are used to zero the manual and/or automatic acquisitions, while the optical An electronic or similar automatically operating acquisition device (automatic, i.e. automatic in the sense of expression) that forms an automatic scanning unit which is particularly suitable within the framework of the invention. garden, optics
The electronic system consists of at least one detector container with one lens plate and one detector carrier, in which the detector carrier is arranged, for example, in a circular, cross-shaped, square or other shape 11. A large number of detectors are inserted. j
! The optical and electronic system is equipped with an amplifier and an evaluation device for the signal from the detector.

Furthermore, at least one additional rung, in particular a light emitting diode, is provided, the shell diode being arranged in one or more pieces on the surface or inside the keyboard housing.

The detector carrier or detector arrangement is arranged at a distance from the lens in the image plane projected by the lens. In order to block out radiation from the surroundings and to avoid possible errors caused thereby, the lens and the detector carrier are provided with protective cylinders of ring-shaped radiation absorption grooves on opposite sides. For this purpose, the detector container is correspondingly configured and equipped. The protective cylinder has elasticity and is deformable, and can slide while deforming one side of the document if necessary. The amplifier and evaluation arrangement for the aj'4 from the detector is preferably operated electronically, inter alia by comparing the signal with the four values given by the front panel. and forms the shape of the bit, which is equal to the brightness distribution of the scanning point projected, for example by a lens, onto a detector arrangement located in the image plane, and thus the position of the scanning point (on the coordinate network). ) and the thickness of the scanned line K11 to enable statements or evaluations.

Calculator Evaluates the above statement and, modifying it if necessary, sends it to the recording device on the one hand and, on the other hand, as a signal to operate the scanning unit to automatically track E1m. The data is sent to the driving element in scanning units as shown in FIG. If the crosshairs and the necessary table are manually scanned by one hand, the calculator only serves to send the correction to the marking device.

In addition to the usual devices for manipulating and controlling the motion of the guide rail and at least one traveling chassis, there are also coordinate conversion devices, logic conversion devices and drive devices, which usually consist of a thousand motors. There is. To make manual copying possible, a motor is used so that the drive and, if necessary, the operating unit can also be switched off. A visually controlled Ka amount control device is provided on the guide rail of the desk of the equipment or preferably on the vehicle chassis. For this purpose, digital operating notification devices are suitable, which indicate in all directions the coordinates of the instantaneous position obtained, for example, by means of an optical-electronic transmission beam scanning unit.

The task is greatly simplified by the addition of the proposed symbol keyboard, which requires at least one keyboard with several keys and at least one keyboard. It consists of two symbol carriers. Some of the keys or their corresponding keyboards are connected to a sensor release device or other switch (by contact) that can be activated by tapping or an impulse housing. It is preferable to use a device. It is also possible for the foil to be produced separately or by the user) to be optionally printed and coded using the device of the invention, if a foil is suitable as a symbol carrier. In order to recognize the O symbol carrier in each case, the symbol keyboard is operated electronically on the fourth board (with a code reader) and possesses a II position;
This device automatically inserts and activates the card belonging to the nine-carrier when necessary, so that when a key is actuated, it is associated with the symbol-carrier on which it is placed. Ki if the attached symbol or Hiro expression is required.

This is a SS advantage. In the case of a simple structure using connecting wires, these connecting wires are made so that at least one end can be disconnected and inserted into a 4 tK plug, so that the equipment can be expanded or replenished according to the system specifications. It must be possible for components to be replaced or replaced in the event of an accident. Gut fibers are also suitable for use as connection means. In addition, additional connecting terminals are installed externally to accommodate nine central units or one unit, as well as a must-have! In some cases, there is an externally installed nine separate O scanning unit, for example an additional digitization facility, or an externally installed nine separate output unit connected to an output unit for multiplex or cross-sectional copying. is advantageous. These external elements are used in the interior of the forest, and their corresponding internal components are used.
It is also possible to use it in place of all or part of the constituent members.

The symbol keyboard 5 makes it possible to easily input and implement arbitrary expressions, figures and symbols without the expense of extensive programming, using a symbol carrier that can be created by the user himself. External elements are important components of the overall installation or serve as rounding additional building blocks that increase the number of equipment elements of the same type or extend or expand the functionality of equipment elements of the same type. .

The enlarged view shown in FIG. 2 shows a drawing unit 14 slidably arranged on a guide rail 12 and removable;
A traveling chassis 13 with a scanning unit 17, an output unit 18, a keyboard 15 and a position control device 16 is shown. The drafting unit 14 in this case consists of a drafting tool tip 141 and a key-shaped drafting ruler 142. The keyboard 15 has operation commands or connection commands and other release keys, correction keys for aligning the zero point, fixing the ninth or moving the zero points, keys for shutting off the electronic device, keys for other uses, or It includes several release keys, such as keys for program selection. Internal KaX of position control device 16
An axis notification window 161 and a y-axis notification 142 are arranged, and the position of a point on the traveling chassis 13 or on the chassis in the coordinate system arranged, measured and evaluated in a known manner is digitally announced. This makes it possible to visually check Nt&. The scanning unit 17 is one on the carrier plate 172.
A crosshair 171 fixed inside the detector container 173 as well as an automatic crosshair 171 for manual scanning to easily trace a line or for positioning the carriage 15 at the starting point or zero point during automatic scanning. It has a detector carrier 177 of electronic scanning elements for target scanning.

In another embodiment, the two sets 01 [element (171° 172 or 175, 177) for mechanical or automatic scanning can be separated from each other or arranged on separate carriages. It is possible. Scanning center zero point and drafting ruler 14
Adjusting the zero points of 2 is done automatically by operating the calculator by pressing a key. selectively aligning the zero point of the position control device 16 with the center of the crosshairs of the detector carrier 177 or with the center of the output element 182 just in use or with the zero point of the drafting ruler 142, respectively, by pressing a key; is possible.

For example, if the center of the drafting tool tip 14 and the zero point of the notification window (for example, the In the case of the drafting tool tip 14, unless there is a special announcement window for this purpose, it is set and serves for accurate calculation of the corners of the drafting ruler.

The output unit 18 shown in the figure has thirteen holding devices 181 for output elements 182, in the figure only the central holding device holds one output element. Usually all holding devices are fitted with different output elements. Possible output elements 182 are capillary recording devices or their tips with different thicknesses and tones, ballpoint pens or their leads, pencils or colored pencils or their leads. It is also possible for the supply of the substances used for recording to be effected and regulated by mechanical operation from the recording medium container. The output element 182 is inserted in the holding device 1e1 so as to be movable in the axial direction so as to be able to be removed or replaced by the pest in order to contact the surface of the carrier 80. In a further embodiment, the output unit 18 as well as the scanning unit 17 can be arranged on a separate carriage. Structurally, the output unit 18 is typically formed or configured similar to that of a plotter.

According to FIG. 5, the scanning unit 17 used for automatic scanning
A scanning element 174.17+6,177'' is arranged inside the detector carrier 173, with a lens 174 on the side facing the document 7 and, if necessary, a lens system. is present, and a detector carrier 177 is present at a distance from the lens.The lens and the carrier (174, 177) are fixed so as to be replaceable. A protective cylinder 178, which does not transmit light and absorbs light, blocks interfering external or scattered light.A number of detectors 176 and a lamp 179 are inserted into the detector carrier 177. These detectors 176 and lamps 17?
is connected to the amplifier and evaluation device as well as to the control circuits of the power supply and scanning equipment.

In FIG. 4, the individual detectors 176 are arranged in the shape of a crosshair. A lamp 179 is located at the center of these detector arrangements 175. It is also advantageous for the detectors 176 to be particularly arranged circumferentially. Square or other fin-like arrangements are also possible. Since the scanned line or point is typically captured by the center of the detector arrangement 175, the selectivity of the arranged system is determined from both technical and economic considerations. The number of attached detectors 176 is also the same as before.
Determined by economic considerations. However, the conditions of the computer should be taken into account at the same time.
It is advantageous to arrange a multiple of the number of detectors.

In the case of a circular arrangement, it has proven advantageous to arrange 64 detectors on the detector carrier.

A symbol keyboard is shown in FIG. 5 and has a guide frame 57 with a keyboard 51, keys 52, a code reading device 54 and a Crying device 58. A symbol carrier is fixed and held in the guide frame 57, and is thus programmed by the code i-54 to the key attached to this symbol carrier. The assigned Qi i can be determined by visual inspection.

FIG. 6 shows a symbol carrier 53 with a code mark 54 and several symbols 55. FIG. This symbol carrier corresponds to the key arrangement of the keyboard@51 and is a rectangular divided portion 5! for guidance when searching for the symbol 55! and consists of a relatively soft but resistant foil. Creating a symbol carrier or attaching a symbol is a long-lasting memorizing agent - especially a symbol drawn from a recording device using a crystal, and drawn by ordinary drawing. This is done by reduced automatic copying.

The code marks 54 are made by a calculator and recorded automatically at the same time. For this purpose, line codes or ring codes or other symbols are used depending on the pronunciation and system, respectively.

When scanning is performed automatically by the illustrated writing or drawing machine, a detector 176 as an optical-electronic scanning element is detected by 1. By their arrangement and evaluation of their signals, the position and size or thickness of the line or point on the original image 71 being scanned at that moment is captured.

The signal generator of the amplified detector, in this case, forms a bit shape corresponding to the brightness distribution after being compared with the light value, thereby determining the position of the scanned circle line or point. The width or size is determined. The automatic tracing of the line is carried out by operating a calculator on the basis of the obtained values, in which the movement control device and the control device cooperate with the logic conversion device and the coordinate conversion device. At the same time as described above, the coordinate values are acquired with great resolution, ie in a large number of points, and classified by means of a calculator or mapped elsewhere and recorded. In each case where there is a branch, the position and direction of the legal connection point are marked and then automatically determined as the starting point for the next line. Completely scanned original drawings 71, symbols, letters, numbers and other representations are encoded and encoded (often by recalling them from a recording device if necessary) on the symbol key ID 5. is copied to.

Original drawings, parts of original drawings, i-ri or symbols that are rarely needed are:
A rare must! Operation keys 4 of the calculator 4 as well as instructions for the calculator to perform geometric operations, such as enlargement, rotation, etc.
Called via 2. Often a must! Contrary to the above, a work instruction to be performed is input via the gourd symbol key 5 with a corresponding symbol attached, as in the case of the original drawing. This is because the wrinkle symbol key is relatively easy to operate and can be conveniently inserted into the work area if necessary.

The initial starting point for automatic output is established by determining the starting point by means of a crosshair 171 or similar auxiliary or calculator operation.

If necessary, automatic acquisition can be stopped automatically by hand chaining or pre-picking and copying 8
1 can be completed or corrected manually by the drawing unit 14, after which the drawing can proceed automatically again. In the case of hand chain scanning, no automatic tracking unit is activated. If a scanning element is incorrectly guided, it is compensated for through classification and recognition in the calculator at input or output.

Via the operating keys 42 or the symbol keys 5, the writing or drawing machine 1 according to the invention also automatically performs any descriptions, dimension lines and similar writing, filling tables or filling out parts lists or lines. Diagrams can be created, and the characters or symbols output can be reproduced in any desired or expedient representation type or modified representation, respectively.

In addition to the scope of application as writing or drawing equipment as exemplified above, the method of the invention can also be applied in another area of application, namely in recording devices as devices of the invention for recording or printing. be done. In the case of jin, the scanning unit 17 is
Consisting of known readings and head) and output unit 18
are derived from writing units or other writing mechanisms.

However, the drafting unit (140s) can be operated by a regular hand chain, such as a regular typewriter connected to it, or a writing unit or externally installed nine printing machines! 4
It is designed so that it can be manually operated selectively.

In addition to the manuscript paper, a model or something similar, a transparent or sometimes translucent board, or a table with such a deck is used as a carrier for the manuscript or original drawing, on which the original drawing is directly drawn. Rarely or formed or expressed by projection.

The scanning unit may also have a corresponding projection system or another element for acquiring the original image. In this way, in particular, an original made of, for example, a microfilm or - in the case of a scanning unit made of a magnetic head - an original that is recorded, for example with magnetized material, is scanned. It is also possible to use a correspondingly designed area of the desk of a writing or drafting machine directly as a transparent original or transparent original carrier.

In order to determine the motion and position of the guide rail and the traveling chassis, it consists of a device that transmits a motor and rotation to the track, and the motion is transmitted by a shaft and a toothed belt, and the most accurate positioning is determined by digital notification. The drive system that makes this possible is compatible.
