摘要:
A paper feed roller (5) is divided into a first roller (5a) and a second roller (5b), and a slit (58) allowing the passage of about 10 to about 20 sheets of paper is defined between the first roller and a gate plate (57) opposing the first roller, so that a sheet of paper fed out via this slit can be supplied between the second roller (5b) and a separation pad (7) in contact with the second roller. A biassing force of a spring for transferring paper is converted by a slide cam sliding in a direction parallel to the paper feed roller, and a paper width detection sensor is assembled in a snap-in structure.

An automatic paper feeding device for a document inputting device includes a pick roller (20), separating pads (68) each adapted to be brought into contact with the pick roller (20), a first pair of pick springs (58) and a pick spring (60). The first pair of pick springs (58) are disposed upstream the second pick spring (60) when viewed in a direction in which paper is carried. The first pair of pick springs (58) are disposed in areas widthwise outside the separating pads (68) in the axial direction of the roller, and the second pick spring (60) is disposed at the widthwise central position between the separating pads (68). The first and second pick springs (58, 60) are formed from a metal sheet integrally with each other as a spring unit, and the contact force of the first pair of pick springs (58) disposed upstream with the pick roller (20) is made smaller than that of the second pick spring (60) disposed downstream. The separating pads (68) are formed as a pad unit by branching a web (70) of a rubber sheet into a fork shape. The spring unit and the pad unit are supported together by means of a bracket (76) and presser member (78).

A picture reader is provided with a read unit (2) equipped with a contacting member (21) which comes into contact with an original placing table (11) of a flat bed unit (1) and a pressing element (30) which presses the unit (2) against the table (11). Another picture reader is composed of a reader main body (50) having a read unit (102) and an original placing table (51), and an original cover (42) which has a light source (43) and a diffusing plate (45) and is attached to the main body (50) is an openable state, the distance to the light source (43) from a transparent original (41) placed on the table (51) being variable correspondingly to the thickness of the original (41). A still another picture reader reads in advance the accumulated difference between the movement of the optical unit (102) and a light source unit (43) and, when read scanning is started, shifts the relative position of the optical unit (102) to the light source unit (44) in the direction in which the accumulated difference is produced.

An image reader comprises a lens unit 4 having a lens 1 of low resolution, a lens of high resolution, and a first drive unit 3 for driving the lenses and a second drive unit 5 for driving the lens unit 4. In a first resolution mode, the lens 1 of low resolution is placed in a first position along the optical axis, and the lens 2 of high resolution is not placed in a position along the optical axis. In a second resolution mode the resolution of which is higher than the first resolution, the lens 1 of low resolution is not placed in a position along the optical axis, and the lens 2 of high resolution is placed in a second position along the optical axis. In a third resolution mode the third resolution of which is higher than the second resolution, the lens 1 of low resolution is not placed in a position along the optical axis, and the lens 2 of high resolution is placed in a third position along the optical axis.
摘要:
An original reader such as an image scanner for inputting image information, provided with a light source for illuminating an original, a lens unit (8) capable of optically changing resolution, and a solid-state image sensor substrate placed on an image forming plane (10) of the lens, wherein the lens unit (8) includes a plurality of lenses that can deal with a plurality of different resolutions and one lens corresponding to a specified resolution is selectively moved into a light path. The lens unit and the solid-state image sensor substrate are independently movable in the direction of optical axis for focusing.
