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.

Bei einer bekannten optischen Abtasteinrichtung ist ein Abtastschlitten mit einer zeilenförmigen Lichtempfangseinrichtung unterhalb einer transparenten Auflageplatte für die zeilenweise abzutastende Vorlage auf Führungselementen in Form von parallelen Rundstangen verfahrbar gelagert. Zur Erzielung einer hohen Abtastgenauigkeit soll die neue Abtasteinrichtung während der Verfahrbewegung des Abtastschlittens einen gleichbleibend genauen Abstand zwischen der Lichtempfangseinrichtung und der abzutastenden Vorlage gewährleisten. Dies wird dadurch erreicht, daß beide Führungselemente jeweils als Gestellteil (1, 2) mit einer Führungsbahn (5 bzw. 6) als Auflage für den Abtastschlitten (7) und mit zumindest einer der Führungsbahn (5 bzw. 6) zugewandten Anlagefläche (34 bzw. 35) ausgebildet sind, an der die Auflageplatte (14) mit ihrer Auflagefläche (16) für die Vorlage (15) angedrückt wird. Die neue Abtasteinrichtung findet vorzugsweise als Flachbettscanner Verwendung, bei dem ein optoelektronischer Zeilensensor als Lichtempfangseinrichtung unmittelbar unter der abzutastenden Vorlage quer zur Zeilenrichtung bewegt wird.
摘要:
An electronic print board apparatus for optical reading of characters and figures, etc., written on a plate surface and operable to scale down and print them. The apparatus includes a writing part (10), a frame part (20), a scanning part, and a printing part (111). The writing part (10) is divided into two sections, each of which has a plurality of stacked writable flat plates, a writing surface being formed by the front rows of said two sections. The writing surface can be changed by rotating and moving one flat plate of the two flat plates located on the front row to the position of the other flat plate. The scanning part is supported movably on said frame part (20), and incorporates drive means for said movement, a read part (32) having a sensor (32a), synchronization means (33) for synchronizing the scanning by said read part (32) with the moving speed of said scanning part, a battery (107) for supplying power, and transmitting means for transmitting the read signal by making use of radio, for optically scanning the writing surface and for thereby issuing the read information. The printing part (111) has receiving means for receiving the information transmitted from said scanning part and prints in conformity with said information.
摘要:
An optical unit (70) of an image reading device (6) has the center of gravity in a position toward a first sub scanning direction, relative to the middle point of the optical unit (70) in terms of sub scanning directions. An engagement part (63a) is provided in a position toward a first main scanning direction relative to a sliding part (65b). A plurality of pairs of pinching parts (65c) include a first pair provided in a position toward the first sub scanning direction and a second pair provided in a position toward a second sub scanning direction. Of the two pinching parts (65c) in the second pair, the pinching part (65c) provided in a position toward the first main scanning direction is biased by a first biasing member (69) toward a rail part (80) side, and the pinching part (65c) provided in a position toward a second main scanning direction is not biased by the first biasing member (69).
摘要:
An image reading device comprising: a document placing portion; a conveyor; a reading unit configured to read an image of the document, wherein the reading unit includes: an image sensor; a support which supports the image sensor, wherein in the case of reading the image of the document conveyed by the conveyor, the support is to be stopped at a predetermined reading position; a guide; and a driving unit, wherein the reading unit further includes: a release unit configured to release the contact with the guide by separating the support from the guide when the support is moved toward the predetermined reading position; and a contact portion configured to contact with the support separated from the guide by the release unit when the support is moved toward the predetermined reading position.
摘要:
A rail system made of one or more flexible guide rods, each consisting of a tension rod, is used to support lightweight, mobile devices such as carriages, scanning heads or optical sensors. The rail is configured to permit movement of the mobile device, when driven by an external drive mechanism, along a main scanning direction but prohibits rotational movement of the mobile device. In this fashion, the mobile device remains substantially at the same measured distance from the flat surface of an object, e.g., moving sheet or web, being analyzed.

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.
