Image display apparatus

Claim 2

An image display apparatus, comprising: optical means for projecting an image of an image bearing member, said optical means including at least first and second mirrors, with said first mirror being rotatable and said second mirror being fixed; a screen for displaying the image projected along an image projecting optical path by said optical means; an image sensor provided in the vicinity of said screen and fixed outside the image projecting optical path to said screen; and moving means for moving said first mirror between a display position for projecting the image onto said screen and a reading position for projecting the image on said image sensor, wherein light reflected by said first and second mirror is projected onto said screen when said first mirror is placed at the display position and onto said image sensor when said first mirror placed at the reading position, with said first mirror being rotated at a constant speed by said moving means and the image being read by said image sensor during rotation of said first mirror.

Claim 3

An apparatus according to claim 1, wherein said optical means uses a number of mirrors for projecting the image onto said screen that is different from the number of mirrors for projecting the image onto said image sensor.

Claim 4

An apparatus according to claim 1, wherein said optical means uses a number of mirrors for projecting the image onto said screen that is the same as the number of mirrors for projecting the image onto said image sensor.

Claim 5

An apparatus according to claim 1, wherein said optical means comprises a projection lens, and said first mirror is positioned opposite to said projection lens.

Claim 6

An apparatus according to claim 1, wherein said image sensor is positioned under said screen.

Claim 7

An apparatus according to claim 1, wherein said image sensor is positioned at a lateral side of said screen.

Claim 8

An apparatus according to claim 1, wherein said image sensor is composed of a linear image sensor, and the image is scanned by said image sensor by the movement of said first mirror.

Claim 9

An image reading apparatus, comprising: optical means for projecting the image of a film, said optical means including a projection lens and a plurality of mirrors, with one of said mirrors being rotatable; a screen for displaying the image projected by said optical means; a linear image sensor fixed in the vicinity of said screen but outside of an image projecting optical path toward said screen; and drive means for rotating said rotatable mirror between a first position for guiding the image to said screen and a second position for guiding the image to said image sensor, wherein the image of the film is projected onto said screen by said projection lens and said plurality of mirrors when said rotatable mirror is placed at a first position, the image of the film is projected by said projection lens and said plurality of mirrors onto said image sensor when said rotatable mirror is placed at a second position, and said rotatable mirror is rotated at a predetermined speed, with the image of the film being read by said image sensor during rotation of said rotatable mirror.

Claim 10

An image reading apparatus, comprising: optical means for projecting the image of a film, said optical means including a projection lens and a plurality of mirrors, with one of said mirrors being rotatable; a screen for displaying the image projected by said optical means; a linear image sensor fixed in the vicinity of said screen but outside of an image projecting optical path toward said screen; and drive means for rotating said rotatable mirror between a first position for guiding the image to said screen and a second position for guiding the image to said image sensor, wherein the image of the film is projected onto said screen by said projection lens and said plurality of mirrors when said rotatable mirror is placed at a first position, the image of the film is projected by said projection lens and said plurality of mirrors onto said image sensor when said rotatable mirror is placed at a second position, and said rotatable mirror is rotated at a predetermined speed, with the image of the film being read by said image sensor during rotation of said rotatable mirror.

Claim 11

A film reader-printer, comprising: a projection lens; a rotatable first mirror for reflecting light from said projection lens; a screen for observing the image recorded in the film; first optical means for guiding light reflected by said first mirror to said screen, with said first optical means including at least one fixed second mirror, the image of the film being projected on said screen by said projection lens, said first mirror and said first optical means; image sensor array means disposed in the vicinity of said screen outside of an image projecting light path to said screen and within a reflected light path of said second mirror; a photosensitive member; second optical means for guiding light from said projection lens to said photosensitive member, with the image of the film being projected onto said photosensitive member by said projection lens, said first mirror and said second optical means; and drive means for rotating said first mirror for causing the image of the film to be scanned by either one of said image sensor array means of said photosensitive member, with the usage of the film being scanned by said image sensor array means during rotation of said first mirror.

Claim 12

A film reader-printer, comprising: a projection lens; a rotatable first mirror for reflecting light from said projection lens; a screen for observing the image recorded in the film; first optical means for guiding light reflected by said first mirror to said screen, with said first optical means including at least one fixed second mirror, the image of the film being projected on said screen by said projection lens, said first mirror and said first optical means; image sensor array means disposed in the vicinity of said screen outside of an image projecting light path to said screen and within a reflected light path of said second mirror; a photosensitive member; second optical means for guiding light from said projection lens to said photosensitive member, with the image of the film being projected onto said photosensitive member by said projection lens, said first mirror and said second optical means; and drive means for rotating said first mirror for causing the image of the film to be scanned by either one of said image sensor array means of said photosensitive member, with the usage of the film being scanned by said image sensor array means during rotation of said first mirror.
