摘要:
An image reading device capable of preventing, by increasing the quantity of light at the center or bound portion of a spread book document, the quantity of light from becoming short and preventing density from becoming irregular due to the deviation of a focus. At and around the center of a spread book document where the document is bound, the quantity of light for illumination or the amplification gain of image data read from the document is increased. A plurality of fluorescent lamps illuminate the surface of the document at the upstream side and downstream side with respect to an intended scanning direction. When the edge of the document is to be detected, only one of the lamps is turned on to enhance the stripe pattern representative of the stepped edge portion of the document.

In a book document reading device having a page turning capability, a turn belt has a flat portion at the underside thereof and is supported by a turn roller. The turn roller selectively moves the turn belt to a first position where the flat portion of the belt electrostatically attracts the uppermost leaf of a book document, which is spread on a table, in contact with the leaf, or to a second position where the belt is spaced apart from the book document while carrying the uppermost page therewith. When the turn belt is moved from the first position to the second position, a scanning unit is caused to stop moving. This allows the leaf of the document to surely adhere to the turn belt.

A multistage paper feeding/conveying apparatus has a plurality of recording paper storing devices vertically arranged at multiple stages; a paper feeder for feeding a sheet of recording paper one by one from arbitrary one of the recording paper storing devices; and a vertical conveyer vertically extending and opposed to a paper feeding side of each of the recording paper storing devices. The vertical conveyer conveys the sheet of recording paper fed from the paper feeder to a paper receiving section of an image forming apparatus. The paper feeder has a single paper feeding unit which can selectively come in contact with a front end portion of an uppermost sheet of recording paper on an upper face thereof with respect to sheets of recording paper stored within the plural recording paper storing devices. The paper feeding unit and the vertical conveyer have a single endless conveying belt and a device for forming an electric charge pattern for adsorbing the sheet of recording paper to the endless belt. A method for feeding the recording paper is also shown.
摘要:
A method for turning over a page of a book-type original using a belt as a device for turning over the page. The original is set with spread pages arranged upward. The method includes the steps of disposing the belt over spread pages of the original so that the belt comes in contact with a surface of the spread pages, attracting one of the spread pages of the original to the belt by an attracting devices, and deforming a part of the belt upward at a portion of the belt continuously along the surface of the spread pages while moving the portion from one end of the page to the other end thereof so that the page attracted to the belt is separated from a next page of the original.
摘要:
An image reader capable of determining whether or not a book document to be copied needs royalty by the recognition of a book document and counting operation of a copying system. When a book document to be copied needs royalty, the number of times that images of the document are scanned or the number of times that the resulting image data are outputted is counted. While the count is stored, the royalty of the book document copied is managed on the basis of the count. The image reader can also read a ID code formed on the book, and can control the counting operation based on the detected book ID.

摘要:
A miniature and reliable device capable of reading a book document while turning the pages thereof. A book document is laid on a document table in a spread position face up. The document table is pressed upward while a scanning unit is restricted in movement in the up-and-down direction. The scanning unit, therefore, receives the surface of the book document pressed upward.

In a book document reading device having a page turning capability, a scanning and page turning device scans a spread book document and turns over a leaf by receiving and then sending it out from a receiving section. The device is capable of surely detecting the edges of the book document.
摘要:
An image reader for reading a book document laid on a document table in a spread position by optically scanning the surface of the document. The edge of the document on the side where scanning for reading the document starts, the position of an image on the document, the size of the document, the edge of the document on the side where the leaf of the document begins to be turned over and so forth are detected on the basis of data derived from the optical scanning of the surface of the document.
