Abstract
Abstract A card dispenser comprising a sheet-like optical information recording member bearing a number of indicia for a card recorded thereon, positioning means for moving the recording member in the plane thereof, an optical system for projecting the indicia recorded on the recording member onto a photographic photosensitive paper, means for feeding the photographic photosensitive paper through a focussing position of the optical means, means for processing the photosensitive paper, means for controlling the feeding means to selectively position the recording member at the optical focussing position of the optical system, and an input means for providing a signal to the controlling means for positioning the recording member at a selected indicia. Embodiments include additionally a display means for converting an electric image signal into a pattern, an optical system for also projecting the indicia indicated on the display means onto the photosensitive paper, and means for generating an electric image signal input into the display means.

Claims Analysis
Total Claims: 7
Claim 1
Independent Claim
181 words
A card dispenser comprising: a sheet-like optical information recording member bearing a number of ordered indicia recorded thereon, positioning means for moving said recording member in the coordinate axes of the plane thereof, a first optical system for projecting portions of the ordered indicia recorded on said recording member onto a photographic photosensitive paper at descrete locations thereon, a second optical system for projecting a signature, or other random identifying indicia onto said photographic photosensitive paper at a location separate from said descrete locations, means for feeding the photographic photosensitive paper through the focusing position of said first and second optical means, means for the development processing of said photosensitive paper, means for controlling said positioning means to selectively position said recording member relative to said first optical system for projection at the optical focusing position of said first optical system, and input means for providing a signal to said controlling means for positioning the recording member in a selected pattern to define the locations for said ordered indicia and said random indicia to be recorded on said photographic photosensitive paper.
Claim 2
Dependent Claim
181 words
A card dispenser comprising: a sheet-like optical information recording member bearing a number of ordered indicia recorded thereon, positioning means for moving said recording member in the coordinate axes of the plane thereof, a first optical system for projecting portions of the ordered indicia recorded on said recording member onto a photographic photosensitive paper at descrete locations thereon, a second optical system for projecting a signature, or other random identifying indicia onto said photographic photosensitive paper at a location separate from said descrete locations, means for feeding the photographic photosensitive paper through the focusing position of said first and second optical means, means for the development processing of said photosensitive paper, means for controlling said positioning means to selectively position said recording member relative to said first optical system for projection at the optical focusing position of said first optical system, and input means for providing a signal to said controlling means for positioning the recording member in a selected pattern to define the locations for said ordered indicia and said random indicia to be recorded on said photographic photosensitive paper.
Claim 3
Dependent Claim
50 words
The card dispenser of claim 1, including a display means for converting an electric image signal into a display pattern, an optical system for projecting the display pattern indicated on the display means onto said photosensitive paper, and means for generating an electric image signal input into said display means.
Claim 4
Dependent Claim
17 words
The card dispenser of claim 2, wherein said display device comprises an array of numeral indicating tubes.
Claim 5
Dependent Claim
17 words
The card dispenser of claim 2, wherein said display device comprises a cathode ray tube display device.
Claim 6
Dependent Claim
39 words
The card dispenser of claim 1, including means for feeding a laminating film into superpositioning over and under said development processed paper for lamination of said paper there-between and means for cutting said laminated paper sheet into a card.
Claim 7
Dependent Claim
40 words
The card dispenser of claim 1, wherein a signature or other random identifying indicia is contained on a marked card, and said second optical system includes a projection lens, projecting said signature on random indicia on to said photosensitive paper.
