    摘要: In a light beam scanning system, a beam shaper shapes light beam emitted from a light source. The shaped light beam is deflected by a deflector to scan a surface in a main scanning direction. A scanning/imaging optical system causes the light beam deflected by the deflector to form an image on the surface and scan the same. The beam shaper includes a diverging optical system which converts the light beam into divergent light. The scanning/imaging optical system consists of first and second lens elements arranged in this order from the light source side and having first to fourth surfaces as numbered from the light source side and satisfies formulae, -1.42 0, fGR2>0 wherein f all , f GF , r 1GR , r 2GR , r 4GR , f GR1 and f GR2 respectively represent the composite focal length of the beam shaper and the scanning/imaging optical system, the focal length of the beam shaper, the radius of curvature of the first surface of the scanning/imaging optical system, the radius of curvature of the second surface of the scanning/imaging optical system, the radius of curvature of the fourth surface of the scanning/imaging optical system, the focal length of the first lens element and the focal length of the second lens element.

    摘要: An optical scanner including a semiconductor laser device, aperture, collimator, cylindrical lens, polygonal mirror and one fϑ lens element molded from plastics. The first surface of the fϑ lens in a deflecting plane (or the plane formed by the principal rays of light as deflected by the polygonal mirror) is aspheric whereas the second lens surface is toric. When taken in the deflecting plane, the first lens surface has a positive value of the near-axis radius of curvature and, hence, it is convex toward the polygonal mirror. Taken in a plane crossing the deflecting plane at right angles, the first lens surface forms an arc of a circle having a negative value of the radius of curvature and, hence, it is concave toward the polygonal mirror. When taken in the deflecting plane, the second lens surface forms an arc of a circle having a negative value of the radius of curvature and, hence, it is convex toward the scanning surface.
