摘要:
A complex apparatus in which an image reading device can be favorably supported without increasing the overall size of the apparatus is provided. A complex apparatus includes: a recording device including a recording unit that executes recording on a medium; an image reading device, provided so as to open and close an upper portion of the recording device with a hinge portion, including an image reading unit that reads an image; a first contact portion, provided in the image reading device, that makes contact with a housing of the recording device when the image reading device is in a closed state; a second contact portion, provided in the housing of the recording device, that makes contact with the first contact portion when the image reading device is in a closed state; and a third contact portion, provided in an apparatus frame that holds the recording unit, that makes contact with the housing of the recording device at the lower area of the second contact portion.

Line imaging apparatus (10) including at least one elongated, linear array (50) of photosensitive elements (50 a ), said elongated array adapted to traverse an image bearing surface (13) and provide photogenerated output signals representative of both the image formed on said surface as well as the image projected (36) onto said surface.
摘要:
Apparatus (ll) for generating electronic signals which are representative of a detectable condition on an image-bearing surface (lO). The apparatus includes an elongated (56) array of distinct, thin film, photosensitive elements (64) formed on a common flexible large area substrate (7O). The elongated array of photosensitive elements is fabricated as a large area, photovoltaic structure formed of a plurality of thin film layers (82), including a first layer of thin film, electrically conductive material. The discrete photosensitive elements are defined by patterning of the conductive layer into shaped regions which determine the overall configuration and dimensions of each element. The novel apparatus utilizes a large area linear array of amorphous silicon alloy photosensitive elements and is adapted to provide automatic adjustment for sensor and circuit variables as well as for changes in the intensity of image illumination. The apparatus may include an arm (l8) adapted to move over at least a portion of the surface, the arm having said elongated array of discrete photosensitive elements mounted thereupon. The array of discrete photosensitive elements is formed on a flexible substrate so as to be capable of reading the detectable conditions of a non-planar, image bearing surface (3l4). The imaging apparatus may also include a lensless optical system (4O2) for directing light from each particular surface portion onto a corresponding photosensitive element. Finally, each of said elements may be provided with a filter adapted to limit the photogeneration of charge carriers by each element to specific wavelengths of light.
摘要:
Provided is a self-running type scanner comprising a movable scanner unit (1 min ) and a running guiding and assisting plate (23) mounting the scanner unit for guiding running of the scanner unit. The movable scanner unit comprises an illuminating light source (10), a step motor (46) from running the scanner unit, an image sensor (13), a controller (20) for controlling provision of image information and running of the scanner unit, and wheels (21, 22) to which the rotation force of the motor is transmitted. The running assisting plate comprises guides (33a, 33b) engaging with the wheels, a light transmitting area (34), a white area (35) around the light transmitting area, a black area (D) surrounding the white area and the light transmitting area, and timing marks (36, 37) indicative of the position for starting reading.

Systems, apparatuses, and methods for a self-propelled image translation device are described herein. The self-propelled image translation device may include a propulsion module to control propulsion components to autonomously propel the image translation device over an adjacent medium. An input/output module of the self-propelled image translation device may control input/output components to translate an image between the device and an adjacent medium.
