Abstract:
An image scanning device is provided including a sensor unit which carries an image sensor. The sensor unit is installed within a scanner body and is capable of reciprocating underneath a flat glass plate. The sensor unit has an image sensor and a cleaning unit arranged on a moving route of the sensor unit to remove static electricity as well as contaminants remaining on the image sensor when the cleaning unit contacts the image sensor.
Abstract:
An ink-jet printer includes a unitary printhead and carriage assembly supporting a refillable or replaceable ink storage vessel for printing from a reservoir of ink from the ink storage vessel through a printhead comprising a plurality of nozzles according to a print command input received via a printing control cable. A head cap provides access to the printhead and carriage assembly to replace the ink storage vessel when ink is depleted in order to continuously provide a supply of ink without discarding the printhead cartridge.

Abstract:
A color image forming apparatus is provided capable of easily assembling and controlling the elements relating to color registration and image quality. The apparatus includes an image forming module having a plurality of image forming units, exposure units, a transfer unit and an integrally formed image forming frame, and a main body in which the image forming module is detachably mounted by use of positioning members. Upon assembling the plurality of image forming units, exposure units and the transfer unit in the image forming frame, distances between the former elements are always maintained constant.
Abstract:
A hinge apparatus for a cover of an image forming apparatus has a hinge body with supporting brackets, movably inserted into a coupling hole positioned in a main body of the image forming apparatus, a hinge cam connected to the cover and pivotably connected to the supporting brackets, and a pressure device disposed at the hinge body to press the hinge cam. Accordingly, the hinge apparatus can be implemented with a simple and easy assembly operation, since it is not a complicated structural connection among the component parts of the hinge apparatus.
Abstract:
An improved write head container for use with an ink jet printer is provided, in which a constant resilient force is maintained to secure close adhesion between a nozzle of a head and a rubber receptacle, and the tip of the nozzle is prevented from clogging by way of aligning vertical center line of the nozzle and the container. The container is constructed with a locking portion integrally formed with a sidewall so as to lock and unlock the corner of an upper portion of the write head and with a pushing mechanism for maintaining and supporting the close adhesion, which moves up and down through a bottom wall extended from the sidewall.
