Image box chip, image box and alarm processing method of residual recording materials

Abstract

The invention provides an image box chip, an image box and an alarm processing method for residual recording materials. The image box chip comprises an information storing unit, a delay alarm unit and an analog sensor, wherein the information storage unit is used for sending an alarm indicator signal to the delay alarm unit once the residual recording materials are less than a preset threshold; the delay alarm unit is used for prolonging the valid time of the alarm indicator signal, wherein the valid time of the alarm indictor signal is greater than the power supply interval time of an imaging device to the information storage unit and the analog sensor; and the analog sensor is used for sending alarm information once the alarm indicator signal is maintained in the delay alarm unit, or sending sufficient recording material information once the alarm indicator signal is not maintained in the delay alarm unit. By adopting the image box chip, the image box and the alarm processing method of the residual recording materials, the problem that the image device asynchronously supply power to the information storage unit and the analog sensor of the image box chip, so that the image box chip cannot precisely provide the alarm information, can be solved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to imaging technology, in particular to an imaging box chip, an imaging box and an alarm processing method for the remaining quantity of recording materials. Background technique [0002] With the development of image forming technology, image forming devices such as copiers, facsimiles and printers have been widely used. During the imaging process of the imaging device, the imaging information is recorded on the imaging box chip, and the imaging box chip is generally arranged on the imaging box. In the imaging box chip, the initial information of the imaging box, such as the imaging box model, color, recording material capacity, production date, and manufacturer code, is recorded, as well as information such as the consumption and remaining amount of the recording material obtained during the subsequent imaging process. The above-mentioned recording material can be toner for copiers, facsimile machines, laser printers or ink for...
