Abstract: An integrated image module for a document scanner includes a one piece die cast housing having a datum element and a support element. An imaging sensor array is enclosed in the housing. An array bias element urges the imaging sensor array against the datum element to provide accurate placement of the sensor array relative to the housing. A transport mechanism is attached to the housing so that the position of the transport mechanism accurately corresponds to the position of the imaging sensor array. The lens and the lamp for illumination are also attached to the housing so that the primary components of the imaging portion of the scanner are contained in a single module.

Abstract: In an image forming apparatus (1) utilizing electrophotographic technology, position and posture of a laser scan unit (5) with respect top a frame (13) is adjusted easily without cost rise and upsizing of the apparatus. Semicircular recesses (53) and an elongate hole (54) are formed at each of three fixing portions (52a, 52b and 52c) in the vicinities of side faces (51b) and a rear face (51c) of a housing (51) of the laser scan unit (5), and an adjuster 30 serving as a spacer is attached to each of the fixing portions (52a, 52b and 52c). Each adjuster (30) is elected among a plurality of kinds of adjustors respectively having different thicknesses manufactured by press working of metal plates commercially produced and having different thicknesses with using the same dies. The adjustor has a pair of semicircular engaging portions 30b and a coupling portion 30a perpendicular to and coupling the engaging portions (30b).

Abstract: In a color marking assembly, a series of ROS units are aligned above a photoconductive surface. These units have inboard and outboard mounts connecting them to this assembly. The inboard mounts are attached to a first side of the ROS, and the outboard mounts are attached to a second side of the ROS unit.The inboard mount is an elongated bar extending beyond the height of the ROS unit. This elongated bar has hinged portions on both its top and bottom connections to the ROS unit. The outboard mount has a ball bearing or sphere configuration. This configuration and the inboard mount enable the ROS unit to be easily deskewed when required.

Abstract: An optical reading device of a scanning apparatus includes two light sources and a movable lens. The first light source emits a first light when the optical reading device is operated in a flatbed scanning mode. The second light source emits a second light when the optical reading device is operated in a sheetfed scanning mode. The movable mirror is selected to allow for passing the first light without being obstructed by the movable mirror in the flatbed scanning mode or allow for reflecting the second light coming from the second mirror in the sheetfed scanning mode. Due to the special design, the overall volume of the scanning module is reduced.

Abstract: An apparatus for assembling components of a color optical scanner subassembly which includes a first filter member, a second filter member and a photosensor unit. The apparatus includes an imaging means for impinging an imaging light beam from a line object onto the first and second filter assemblies for producing spatially separated color component images of the line object on the photosensor unit. The apparatus also includes a physical adjustment assembly for holding and selectively adjusting the relative position of the first filter member, the second filter member and the photosensor unit in response to data signals generated by the photosensor unit. This positioning accurately locates the filter members relative to the photosensor unit for optimizing performance of the color optical scanner.
