OBS

The helical aperture facsimile transmitter is fairly common on low-to mid-volume fax units. The original is roller fed over a flatbed copy platen and illuminated by an area lamp. Lens and mirror optics reflect and focus one scan line of the moving document at a time, first through a fixed horizontal slit aperture, and then through a rotating helical aperture. The rotating of the helical aperture produces one lateral scan of the original per revolution, with the passing light being focused a final time onto a photocell for conversion to an electrical signal.

  • Internet and Telematics
DEF

A facsimile transmitter using a scan head composed of a stationary mirror surrounded by a rotating turret of lenses. The original is mounted on a moving semicylindrical platen that feeds the document as it is scanned one line at a time. While rotating, each lens focuses scan lines onto the mirror, which in turn projects the light through an aperture and onto a photocell.

Record 10 1993-12-15

English

Subject field(s)
  • Informatics
  • Electronic Publishing
DEF

A facsimile printing process whereby the facsimile receiver employs a sheet of copy paper covered with a carbon sheet and is mounted on a printing cylinder. As the drum rotates, a single stylus strikes the carbon set with each incoming electrical signal from the transmitter. The force of the stylus causes a carbon mark to appear on the copy paper; by traversing the length of the cylinder, the stylus imprints the entire image of the original.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Informatique

DEF

Procédé d'impression par lequel le récepteur de fac-similés utilise une feuille de papier recouverte d'un carbone et montée sur un cylindre d'impression. Au fur et à mesure que le tambour tourne, un stylet frappe le carbone chaque fois qu'un signal électrique est produit par l'émetteur. Le stylet laisse une marque sur la copie papier; en traversant la longueur du cylindre, il imprime toute l'image de l'original.
