Abstract:
A method for automatically configuring terminal equipment improves the performance of configuring and managing the terminal equipment. The method includes: after being powered on/reset, the terminal equipment reporting the current configuration information to the terminal management unit; the terminal management unit determining whether the configuration information reported by the terminal equipment is the same as the configuration information for the terminal equipment stored in the terminal management unit, if it is the same, terminating the current process, otherwise, transmitting the configuration information for the terminal equipment in the terminal management unit to the terminal equipment; the terminal equipment hence updating its own configuration information according to the received configuration information.
Abstract:
A scanhead of an imaging apparatus for providing image illumination uniformity for imaging of a media sheet, and a method thereof, are disclosed. The scanhead includes a lens, a lens shading plate and a sensor array. The lens is capable of receiving light reflected from the media sheet and focusing the received light. The lens shading plate is capable of assuming a lens shading plate position of a plurality of lens shading plate positions between the lens and the sensor array for receiving the light focused by the lens. The lens shading plate, on assuming the lens shading plate position, is capable of adjusting the light received from the lens for focusing the light onto the sensor array, thereby providing image illumination uniformity, for the imaging of the media sheet.
Abstract:
An exposure control device is used for adjusting light amount received by a focusing device and a photoelectric conversion device of an image scanning apparatus. The exposure control device includes a control unit and a light-transmission adjusting device. The control unit asserts a control signal according to a certain condition of the image scanning apparatus. The light-transmission adjusting device is arranged in the light path to the focusing device and the photoelectric conversion device and changes an effective light-transmission area thereof in response to the control signal to adjust light amount passing therethrough.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to a scanning module, which is capable of integrating optical paths of illuminating and imaging for size reduction, and improving the quality of scanned image by using optical polarizers for filtering, and further achieving the same effect as the “projection scanning” digital camera. The scanning module comprises: a light source, a first polarizer, a quarter-wave plate, a polarizing beamsplitter, an image detection device, and a second polarizer. The light from the light source consists of both a first-polarized and a second-polarized light. The first polarizer is placed in front of the light source that only allows the first-polarized light to pass through. The optics unit directs the first-polarized light to a scanning object and transforms the reflected light into the second-polarized light before receiveded by the image detection device for image acquiring. The second polarizer is placed between the optics unit and the image detection device for allowing only the second-polarized light to pass through such that the influence on the image detection device from the light source can be eliminated.
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:
A method and circuitry for implementing digital multi-channel demodulation circuits. More particularly, embodiments of the present invention provide a digital multi-channel demodulator circuit. The demodulator includes a frequency-block down-converter that receives a multi-channel analog RF signal and shifts the multi-channel analog RF signal to a lower frequency band. An ADC receives the multi-channel analog RF signal from the frequency-block down-converter and converts the multi-channel analog RF signal to a multi-channel digital RF signal. A digital channel demultiplexer receives the multi-channel digital RF signal from the ADC and demultiplexes the multi-channel digital RF signal into separate digital RF channels.
Abstract:
An image reading apparatus includes an image reading device having a plurality of solid-state image sensing device arrays arranged to be parallel to each other, the image reading device for optically reading an image on an original and a registration adjusting device for performing a position variable process operation to correct a gap of a position to be read on the original, which corresponds to intervals between the solid-state image sensing device arrays.
Abstract:
An image reading apparatus for generating image data corresponding to a document image, includes: an irradiating section for irradiating light rays to an image bearing surface of a document; a housing formed with a slit for restrictedly passing light rays reflected from the image bearing surface of the document; a photoelectric conversion element for converting an optical image made of the light rays having passed through the slit of the housing to an electric signal; and an optical system for guiding the light rays having passed through the slit of the housing to the photoelectric conversion element. The housing has a light restrictor at each of the both ends of the slit. The light restrictor projects toward the image bearing surface of the document to thereby keep light rays reflected from an area outside a reading area of the image bearing surface of the document from entering the slit.
Abstract:
A connection device capable of converting a pixel clock to a character clock comprises a pixel generator, a frequency divider, and a logic unit. The pixel generator generates a pixel clock having a number of cycles that is not an integer multiple of a first number during a predetermined interval. The frequency divider connected to the pixel clock generator generates a character clock according to the pixel clock. The logic unit connected to the pixel clock generator and the frequency divider is used for controlling the frequency divider to generate the character clock by dividing the number of cycles of the pixel clock during part of the predetermined interval by the first number and by dividing the number of cycles of the pixel clock during the remaining part of the predetermined interval by a second number.
