发明名称 Improvements in and relating to document scanners.
摘要 <p>A device as described for indicating the state of focus of an image of a document which is converted into a video signal by sequentially inspecting the incident light level at points within the image and generating an electrical signal having a parameter which varies with the light level. The device includes:- (a) circuit means responsive to the electrical signal from sequential inspection of the image for integrating the amplitude variations thereof to produce a varying amplitude focus indication signal,(b) amplifying means for generating from the varying amplitude signal a varying control signal,(c) an indicator comprising a linear array of lamps,(d) circuit means which provides operating current for the lamps the current being related to the amplitude of the focus indication signal, so that with increasing amplitude of the latter so more of the lamps are caused to be illuminated or vice versa, where all the lamps are illuminated to indicate a state of poor focus, and(e) means for adjusting the focus of the image in response to visual inspection of the illuminated lamps, so as to obtain the best possible indication of the state of focus of the image.</p>
