An image reader for reading images on a surface of a medium, having a feeding device for feeding the medium, carriage movable in a direction perpendicular to the direction of feed of the medium, a driving device for moving the carriage, and a reading head mounted on the carriage for reading the images on the medium surface. The image reader comprises an area setter for setting a reading area on the medium surface within which the images are read by the reading head. The reading area is set while the reading head is moved relative to the medium by the feeding and driving devices. The image reader further comprises a controller for controlling the feeding and driving devices and the reading head, to cause the reading head to read the images within the set reading area while the reading area is scanned by the reading head.

An optical reader comprises a plurality of light emitting elements which illuminate a plurality of points through a plurality of optical fibers, a plurality of light receiving elements which receive reflected light from the plurality of reading points through a plurality of optical fibers, and read means for reading an image on a paper on the basis of outputs from the light receiving elements. Amounts of light emitted by the individual light emitting elements are established at a plurality of halftones for illumination, thus eliminating the need for a compensation of a reference value to be used with the individual light emitting elements, thus enabling an image to be read in multiple halftones.

An optical reading head is an optical reader for photoelectric reading of images on a medium, comprising a plural light-emitting optical fibers for transmitting beams of light from light emitting elements to the surface of the medium, and plural light-receiving optical fibers for transmitting beams of reflected light from the medium surface to light-sensitive elements. The ends of the light-emitting and light-receiving optical fibers opposite to the medium surface are positioned in first and second rows, respectively, at a predetermined pitch. The ends of the light-receiving optical fibers are displaced relative to the ends of the light-emitting optical fibers along the first and second rows by a distance equal to a half of the predetermined pitch. Also disclosed is an optical reader comprising the above-described optical reading head, and a control device for controlling the operations of the light emitting elements, so that the resolution of the reading head is variable in two steps.

An electronic device includes a front panel made of resin. The front panel is disposed on the front side of an organic electroluminescent display panel and functions as the front surface of the electronic device; and an adhesive agent layer formed between the organic electroluminescent display panel and the front panel. The organic electroluminescent display panel is fixed to the front panel via the adhesive agent layer. This structure is able to reduce a load applied to the organic electroluminescent display panel and ensure shock resistance for the organic electroluminescent display panel.

An MRI apparatus having a configuration that reduces vibration of a static magnetic field generating source is provided. A closed vessel 2 of the static magnetic field generating source is provided with a rigid structure 4 for preventing transmission of vibration generated from a gradient magnetic field generating part 21 to other members via the closed vessel 2. The rigid structure 4 uses, for example, a connecting part 4 that connects a face 25 on the imaging space side and a face 26 confronting it. The rigidity of the closed vessel is thereby increased, and therefore vibration transmitted from the gradient magnetic field generating part can be reduced. The connecting part can have a through-hole structure, and in such a case, internal space of through-hole can be used for drawing cables.

The present invention is characterized in that in a metal-core multilayer printed wiring board (1) which is obtained by forming one or more of at least inner layers of a laminate having a insulating layer and a conductor layer stacked alternately from a metal plate and has the metal plate as a core, the metal plate (13) is disposed below a site on which a heating element (10) is to be mounted, a surface layer over which the heating element (10) is to be mounted is connected to the metal plate (13) of the inner layer via a BVH (12) and a heat radiation layer (14) is formed over the surface layer. The present invention makes it possible to efficiently radiate heat, which has been released from the heating element, to the outside of the printed wiring board without impairing the packaging density of circuits and at the same time, to mount another element on the side opposite to the side on which the heating element exists.

An image recording apparatus having a sheet cartridge in which a rolled photosensitive recording medium is accommodated. The sheet cartridge has a sheet retaining device for preventing the recording medium from being retracted into a cartridge casing. The retaining device also provides a light shielding member. The image recording apparatus also includes structure for preventing the cartridge from being removed in a case where a residual recording medium is still rolled in the cartridge casing. The image recording apparatus is provided with a wiper member for removing dusts deposited on a surface of a feed roller. Further, a sensor element is provided for detecting non-rotation of a takeup shaft or a slack of the recording medium.

Motor-control device for an image forming apparatus includes a motor, an encoder, a microcomputer, and a driving circuit. The encoder generates a pulse signal in response to rotation of the motor. The microcomputer includes a CPU, a RAM and a ROM. The CPU detects actual rotational speed of the motor based upon the pulse signal generated by the encoder. The CPU cyclically provides a driving signal by comparing the actual rotational speed with a predetermined target rotational speed of the motor. An operating cycle is proportional to a cycle of the pulse signal generated by the encoder. The driving circuit drives the motor based upon the driving signal provided by the CPU. The CPU determines the operating cycle based upon the predetermined target rotational speed. The CPU also determines whether the motor condition is normal or abnormal by comparing the driving signal with a predetermined reference driving signal.
