When certain specific input units are activated (e.g. a button is depressed), the link between the operation of the scanner and other input units is cut off, and only until the end of the specific action corresponding to the specific input unit, will the link between the operation of the scanner and other input units be resumed. Further, the information of being activated can be displayed directly on the scanner when the specific input unit is activated, and when the scanner is performing a specific action, once the specific input unit is activated again, the specific action will be terminated and the link between the operation of the scanner and all input units will be resumed.
Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of scanner and How It Works thereof with input unit dull-prevention function, also is to allow scanner have the method for hardware interrupts function, non-interrupt function and status display function.
Background technology
The operation of scanner, the common practice have three kinds: the first, the user is fully by the computer control scanner, on the scanner without any input block (inputting unit) as button (push button) or switch (switch); The second, scanner itself just has some input blocks, and the user can come the gated sweep instrument by activating (activate) these input blocks; Three, mix the preceding two kinds of practices of use.In recent years, along with consumption electronic products are more and more emphasized the trend of user's convenience, second kind of practice is employed more and more at large.For example, at scanner setting [scanning], [scan and with scanning result print], [scan and with the scanning result fax], [scan and with scanning result with E-mail conveyance] and input blocks such as [scanning and directly deposit], provide the user higher operation ease.Yet above-mentioned second kind of practice tends to run into following disappearance in practical application.
First: the user is not easy to judge the state of each input block.Use switch because the scanner of more and more compact change all is to use button usually, therefore the change that does not often have a tangible geometric configuration (position) at the input block of different conditions is available for users to identification.
Second: the directly ongoing action of self-scanning instrument interrupt scanning instrument of user, that is do not have hardware interrupts (Hardware Cancellation) function.Unlike with the computer control scanner time, the user comes the ongoing action of interrupt scanning instrument by interrupted application program at any time; Directly by on the scanner during each input block gated sweep instrument, the use elasticity of scanner is relatively poor, any specific action just need be finished once activating, and can not optionally interrupt (just finding essential correction of document location skew to be scanned as the user after beginning scanning).
The the 3rd: can not effectively get rid of the danger that each input block is activated by accident.Because each input block is located immediately at the scanner surface, touch because of accident unavoidably and be activated, if this moment, scanner was carried out certain specific action, will also can cause a specific action because of the input block that is activated, and obviously interfere with the normal operation of scanner.
Therefore, be necessary to add fool proof function (foolproof function), operate the convenience of scanner as the biconditional operation idiot camera so that the user to be provided to existing technology of directly coming the gated sweep instrument by input block on the scanner.
Summary of the invention
A fundamental purpose of the present invention is to improve existing direct technology by input block gated sweep instrument on the scanner.
Another fundamental purpose of the present invention provides the scanner with fool proof function, also provides the method that can allow scanner have hardware interrupts function, non-interrupt function and status display function.
For reaching above-mentioned purpose, the present invention proposes a kind of method that the scanner input unit dull-prevention function is provided.When certain specific input block is activated, just cut off the running of scanner and the connection between other input block, and carry out the specific action that corresponds to this specific input block, and finish up to this specific action, just recover the running of scanner and the connection between all input blocks.In addition, this method can also have following two kinds can select (optional) to change: the first, just directly showing the message that has been activated on the scanner when specific input block is activated: the second, when scanner is carried out specific action, if this specific input block is activated once more, just specific action that interruption is being carried out and the connection between the running that recovers scanner and all input blocks.
The present invention also proposes a kind of scanner with fool proof function, except carrying out the specific action that corresponds to the input block that is activated, can also control the relation between the specific action that each input block and scanner carrying out.Therefore, can in the specific action implementation, eliminate the influence that other input block is activated and is caused, or because this specific input block is activated once more, and interrupt ongoing specific action.

Embodiment
The user is difficult for learning the disappearance of each input block current state in the prior art, obviously is because each input block itself does not have special Presentation Function, can be used to refer to the state of each input block.Therefore, the road of a solution is to install display device additional at each input block, when the different conditions of input block, shows different signals.
For instance, can install luminescence component (as light emitting diode) additional at input block, just when being activated, input block allow luminescence component luminous, and luminescence component is just not luminous when input block is activated.Certainly, also can show that by geometric configuration and the geometric position that changes specific input block the present invention does not limit the details how to show.For example, also can on scanner, install a small screen,, just on this small screen, show the code name of this input block whenever there being an input block to be activated.
The directly ongoing action of self-scanning instrument interrupt scanning instrument of user in the prior art, obviously be because scanner only has from input block and receives the function that signal just begins to carry out certain specific action, and do not receive the function that signal is just ended the well afoot specific action from input block.Therefore, the road of a solution is to revise the control device that connects the actuating unit of each input block and each specific action in the scanner, make control device when certain specific action is being carried out, still can receive the signal that input block imports and can command actuating unit to end ongoing action.
For instance, when scanner refers to the brightness actuating unit so that a specific use integrated circuit is next according to each input block state, can revise the layout of this specific use integrated circuit, make this specific use integrated circuit when certain specific action is being carried out, still continue to monitor the state of corresponding input block, and when the signal that receives once again from corresponding input block, just command actuating unit to end ongoing action.Certainly, the present invention does not limit and how to revise the details that concerns between each input media and actuating unit.For example, also can be by revising the details of each input block, the signal that makes input block be sent when the dress attitude of awaiting orders is activated is different with the signal that is sent when state of activation is activated once again, makes control device to send different work orders to actuating unit because receiving different signals.
Can not effectively get rid of the danger that other input block is activated by accident in certain specific action implementation in the prior art, obviously be because whether the activation of each input block is separate, can't be subjected to the influence whether other input block has been activated.Therefore, the road of a solution is the relation of revising between each input block, or even revise relation between each input block and control device, come to make when certain input block is activated, other input block be not can not be activated be control device not can with change work order that actuating unit is sent.
For instance, when control device is the specific use integrated circuit, can revise its layout, make after certain input block is activated, the specific use integrated circuit just can be not again respond to other input block signal that is sent that is activated, when the special action of the input block correspondence that before is activated is finished.Again for example, can between each input block and control device, install a switch, it is online once only allowing between an input block and control device, when certain input block is activated, switch just be fixed on this input block and control device between, this switch just can be released after corresponding specific action is finished.Certainly, the present invention does not limit the details how to revise.
According to top discussion, a preferred embodiment of the present invention is a kind of How It Works with input unit dull-prevention function scanner.As shown in Figure 1, comprise following basic step at least:
As activate shown in the square 10, scanner enters armed state.
As monitor shown in the square 11, continue to monitor each input block that is positioned at scanner.These input blocks can be mechanical type button, electronic type button, mechanical switch and electronic switch at least, also can be above-mentioned every various combinations.
As activate decision block 12 and reaction square 13 shown in the two, if when these input blocks all do not receive signal (when all not being activated), just continue these input blocks of monitoring.And receive signal (being activated) when certain input block, just carry out corresponding action, and cut off be not activated connection between input block of scanner running and all.At this, possible corresponding action have at least scan, scan and scanning result printed, scans and with the scanning result fax, scan and with scanning result with E-mail conveyance and scan and directly deposit.At this moment, it is unimportant whether to continue to monitor each input block that is positioned at scanner again, anyway being cut off with the related of scanner running.
At this, can be by the fixing input block (as forcing these input blocks not to be activated) that is not activated with the mechanical type latch, make these un-activation input blocks can't receive signal, cut off the connection between scanner running and these un-activation input blocks.Can be to be sent to other part of scanner (as signal line broken string), cut off the running of scanner and the connection between each un-activation input block un-activation unit and scanner other parts by the signal that makes the un-activation input block be received.Also can be by making other part of scanner can not be received from the signal (accepting the layout of the integrated circuit of signal as modification) that the un-activation input block is sent, cutting off the connection between scanner running and un-activation input block.
With shown in the reaction square 13, when the specific action executed finishes,, and continue to monitor all input blocks as specific action decision block 14 just recover the running of scanner and the connection between all input blocks.Otherwise, just continue to carry out specific action and cut off the scanner running and all connections between input block of not being activated.
Another preferred embodiment of the present invention is the correction of the foregoing description, and the flow process of the two is similar basically, and just present embodiment will react square 13 and be revised as and show and react square 131.As shown in Figure 2, show the main difference of reaction square 131 and reaction square 13, be show reaction square more than 131 one directly on scanner demonstration be the action that specific input block has been activated.At this, possible display packing can be the geometric configuration that changes specific input block, change the geometric position of specific input block and light the luminescence component that is positioned at specific input block or other can allow the user find the mode that changes easily.
Another preferred embodiment of the present invention also is the correction of first embodiment, and the flow process of the two is roughly similar, hardware interrupts function that just present embodiment is many.As shown in Figure 3, present embodiment will react square 13 and be revised as monitoring reaction square 132 and introduce and activate decision block 15 once more.
Monitoring reaction square t32 with the reaction square 13 have only basically one different: monitoring reaction square more than 132 action that continues to monitor the state that activates input block.
Activating reaction square 15 adds a judgement and has activated the action whether input block is activated (being pressed once more as the button that had been pressed) once more and reacts between monitoring reaction square 132 and specific action decision block 14 once more.Be activated once more if activated input block, just can the just in commission still uncompleted action of interrupt scanning instrument, and get back to the action of monitoring square; Be not activated once more if activated input block, just can allow the just in commission still uncompleted action of scanner continue to be performed.
A preferred embodiment more of the present invention is a kind of scanner with input unit dull-prevention function.Shown in Fig. 4 A and Fig. 4 B, comprise at least:
At this, these input blocks can be mechanical type button, electronic type button, mechanical switch, electronic switch or above-mentioned every various combinations.And, when certain input block is activated, control assembly 43 just can order about running assembly 41 and carry out a specific action that corresponds to driven input block, for example scan, scan and scanning result printed, scans and with the scanning result fax, scan and with scanning result with E-mail conveyance and scan and directly deposit.
At this, when control assembly 41 is carried out specific action at running assembly 41, also can also carry out still unclosed specific action in this input block (input block that the before had been activated) interruption that be activated once more so that whether running and other input block of running assembly 41 (input block that before is not activated) is activated irrelevantly.
Apparently, one big feature of present embodiment is that control assembly 43 is not folk prescription receives signal and the assembly 41 of commander's running according to this from running from interface assembly 42 to ground, but can be according to receiving signal from interface assembly 42, the signal that the running that the running of one side commander's running assembly 41, one side are later controlled interface assembly 42, the reception/reaction of one side selectivity send subsequently from interface assembly 42.
The above is preferred embodiment of the present invention only, is not in order to limit protection scope of the present invention; All other do not break away from the equivalence of being finished under the disclosed spirit and changes or modification, all should be included in the scope of claims.
