Abstract:
A lens module includes a non-cylinder lens and a clamping apparatus. The clamping apparatus includes a base, two side parts, and a top part. Two side parts are disposed on two ends of the base to form a containing trough for holding the lens. One end of the top part is connected to one side part and the other end is fixed on the other side part. Two screw holes on the top part allow two adjusting screws to be screwed into for pressing the lens. Two elastic devices provide the elasticity between the lens and the base and the relative height of two sides of the lens is adjusted by turning the two adjusting screws.
Abstract:
A CCD and CMOS image pickup module including a circuit main board on which an image sensor (CMOS, CCD) and relevant electronic elements are laid. A lens seat is disposed on an upper edge of a package of the image sensor. The lens seat has an image pickup cylinder correspondingly positioned above a coupling transistor of the image sensor. The lens seat covers and encloses the image sensor with the connecting section of the bottom of the image pickup cylinder sealedly attaching to the periphery of the top face of the package of the image sensor. With the profile of the outer periphery of the package of the image sensor serving as a normal standard for the axis of the lens, the axis of the lens being projected onto the sensor center of the coupling transistor.
Abstract:
An illuminating apparatus includes a columnar light guide, a board having a light source fastened on one surface thereof, and a holder. The holder is formed with a through-hole into which an end of the light guide in the columnar center axis direction is fitted to hold the light guide, and a catch that catches and holds the board with the light source facing the end surface of the light guide in the columnar center axis direction in the through-hole.
Abstract:
An image sensor including: light guides for irradiating light onto an irradiated object; a lens that focuses reflected light that was reflected by the irradiated object; a sensor that receives the reflected light that was focused by the lens; and a housing. The housing houses or holds the light guides, the lens, and the sensor, and is formed by integrating a housing metal portion and a housing resin portion.

Abstract:
A mounting bracket for an image sensing unit of a scanner according to one example embodiment includes a first portion and a second portion extending from the first portion. The first portion has a plurality of elongated holes therein each for receiving a fastener to mount the mounting bracket to a scan head frame. The second portion includes a cutout section therein for allowing an image sensor of the image sensing unit to receive an image from an optical unit of the scanner. A pivot hole in the first portion is centered about a width of the cutout section. When the mounting bracket is mounted on the scan head frame, the elongated holes in the first portion permit linear adjustment of the mounting bracket relative to the scan head frame and the pivot hole permits angular adjustment of the mounting bracket relative to the scan head frame.
Abstract:
A lens array unit mounting structure mounts a lens array unit in a recess provided in a housing of an image reading device. The structure includes a right projection and a left projection provided on the lens array unit and includes a right groove and a left groove provided in the recess of the housing. The lens array unit is secured in the recess of the housing by engaging the right projection with the right groove and engaging the left projection with the left groove.
Abstract:
A solid-state image pickup device comprising: a multilayer wiring board 2 having an opening portion 21; a spacer 3 covered with a conductive film 32, and fixed to the multilayer wiring board 2 in a state of making the conductive film 32 face contact with a reference potential electrode exposed into the opening portion 21 of the multilayer wiring board 2; a solid-state image pickup element 4 fixed to the spacer 3 in a state of face contact with the conductive film 32 of the spacer 3, and arranged in the opening portion 21; and an optical element 5 fixed at a position opposing the solid-state image pickup element 4 via the spacer 3, and transmitting light into the opening portion.
Abstract:
An optical scanning device includes a plurality of converging lenses and a plurality of supporting members. Each supporting member supports a corresponding one of the converging lenses. Moreover, the converging lenses are arranged so as to be out of alignment with one another in a main-scanning direction and are arranged in a row in a sub-scanning direction in such a manner that no converging lens interferes with supporting members that support other converging lenses.
Abstract:
Warpage and twist of a solid-state image sensing apparatus is controlled, thereby preventing displacement occurring to the solid-state image sensing apparatus when it is mounted on a printed circuit board. The solid-state image sensing apparatus comprises a plurality of outer leads, and the outer leads each comprises a horizontal portion protruding in the horizontal direction from a side face of a package body for encasing a solid-state image sensing chip therein, an end portion extending in a direction orthogonal to the horizontal portion, and disposed directly below the horizontal portion, a mid portion positioned between the horizontal portion, and the end portion, a first bend formed between the horizontal portion, and the mid portion, and a second bend formed between the mid portion, and the end portion.
