摘要： A light beam scanning device and method comprises a first input source for providing a scanning light beam and a flat stationary scanning surface to be scanned by the beam. An f sine theta lens system focuses the light beam onto the flat stationary scanning surface. A galvanometer mirror provides for repetitively scanning the light beam across the flat stationary scanning surface in a first fast scan direction while a pivoting mirror provides for receiving the light beam and scanning it onto the galvanometer mirror in a second slow scan direction perpendicular to the first direction. The cooperative operation of the galvanometer mirror and the pivoting mirror raster scan the light beam onto the flat stationary scanning surface. A second light source generates a reference light beam which is directed onto a rear mirror surface of the galvanometer mirror from which it is directed to a nonlinear grating having line spacing proportional to 1/(sine theta) for defining the position of the scanning beam in the first direction. The grating is scanned by the reference beam as is reflected from the galvanometer mirror and passes from the grating to a detector for generating a control signal representative of the position of the scanning light beam in the first direction. The grating may be reciprocally moved relative to the galvanometer mirror to compensate for distortion of the image scanned in the flat stationary scanning surface.

摘要： A unitary magnification lens system for an electrophotographic imaging system including a folded optical system is made of synthetic resin. It has an f/5.6 aperture for increased light gathering power to ease the requirements of the imaging system illumination system and a moderately wide field angle of 64.degree. to image documents of up to 81/2.times.14 inches at a time. The lens system is non-vignetting and includes aspherical surfaces on its four elements, arranged in two pairs, that deviate to as much as the tenth order from the conic.
