Plotter as well as plotting method and using method thereof

Abstract

The invention discloses a plotter comprising a moving mechanism, a plotting pen, a positioning device and a controller, wherein, the moving mechanism is used for enabling the plotter to independently move on plotting paper; the positioning device is used for detecting the position of the plotting pen relative to the original point; the controller controls the plotter to move to the starting point of a picture to be plotted and move to the finishing point of the picture to be plotted along the track of the picture to be plotted; and when the plotter moves along the track of the picture to be plotted, the plotting pen plots the track of the picture to be plotted on the plotting plate. Compared with the prior art, the plotter of the invention is suitable for the plotting paper of any sizes, has rapid plotting speed and small volume, and is convenient for carrying, and a great amount of power can be saved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a plotter, a plotting method of the plotter and a usage method of the plotter. Background technique [0002] A plotter is an excellent output device that can automatically draw graphics according to people's requirements. It can output the image data information stored in the computer in the form of graphics. It can mainly draw various large-scale management charts and statistical charts, geodetic survey charts, architectural design charts, circuit wiring diagrams, various mechanical charts and computer-aided design charts, etc. [0003] The most commonly used is an X-Y plotter. Existing plotters already have intelligent functions. They have microprocessors, can use drawing commands, and have functions such as straight line and character calculation processing and self-testing. [0004] Technically, a plotter is a hard-copy device that outputs graphics. With the support of drawing software, the plotter draws complex and acc...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0014] 1) The individual is relatively large, which is not conducive to or cannot be carried around at all, and because of its bulkiness, it needs to consume a lot of power to drive it;

[0015] 2) Limited by the paper inlet of the plotter, traditional plotters support fewer drawing paper specifications, and have the disadvantage that the more paper types they support, the larger the volume;

[0016] 3) The traditional plotter needs to use 220V AC power supply, which has high energy consumption and is difficult to use battery power supply. Once the power grid fails, it cannot be used;

[0017] 4) Traditional plotters are expensive, and ordinary consumers cannot afford them
