Abstract
A composite information recording apparatus is proposed in which in addition to known equipment for improving the image from a copy board onto a light sensitive medium such as a drum through an optical system, and reproducing copies of said image from the drum, a secondary optical system is provided which may intercept the path of the known optical system and direct the image to a photoelectric converter; the image on the photoelectric converter may be processed for external transmission, for storing in a memory or for activation of a second recording apparatus such as an optical fiber tube for recording information on the drum. The optical fiber tube may also be actuated from external message sources.
Claims4
A composite information recording apparatus having an optical system for projecting an image of an original supported on a copy board onto a light sensitive medium, means for reproducing an electrical information signal as an electrostatic latent image on said medium, and means for producing a visible recording by developing either image on the light sensitive medium, the improvement comprising a second optical system, an optical switching mirror for transferring the image on said copy board to said second optical system, a photoelectric converter located at the imaging portion of said second optical system, external signal transmitting apparatus, and means switching the input of said signal reproducing means to the output of photoelectric converter or to the output of said external signal transmitting apparatus.
