摘要:
A focusing device for use in micro film readers or the like for projecting micro images to give in-focus conditon exactly and readily. The present device includes a memory for storing a distance data representing the distance between an original and a projective lens at in-focus position thereof, and a sensor for measuring the distance between an original and the projective lens wherein the projective lens is moved to the in-focus position by a focusing motor in response to the distance data stored in the memory and a signal representing the measured distance generated from the sensor.

A slit exposure type copying machine capable of copying with anamorphic magnification. The degree of the refractive action of at least one triangular prism is so set as to compensate for the difference between the magnification of projection means and the magnification corresponding to the speed of scanning means.

Image recording apparatus wherein a film is exposed to a laser beam so that an image is recorded on the film, the apparatus having a cartridge for winding the image-recorded film. The cartridge comprises a reel, a first and a second casing for housing the reel in such a manner as the reel can be dismounted, the casings capable of being integrated and disintegrated by moving in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the reel, a first guide unit disposed in the first casing for forcing the film wound around the reel toward the center of the reel elastically and a second guide unit disposed in the second casing for forcing the film wound around the reel toward the center of the reel.

A film conveying apparatus includes a portion for feeding a film, a portion for drawing the film and a slack detecting apparatus for detecting slack of the film therebetween. The slack detecting apparatus includes a light emitting portion and the light receiving portion, and when the light from the light emitting portion to the light receiving portion is intercepted by the film, it is determined that the film has slack. When the slack of the film is detected by the slack detecting apparatus, emission of light from the light emitting portion is stopped for a prescribed time period.

A scanning optical apparatus for a printer and a digital copying machine has a light source, a deflector, first and second imaging units. The deflector deflects a light beam emitted from the light source to a main scanning direction. The first imaging unit makes the light beam emitted from the light source form an image in the vicinity of the deflection position of said deflector in the sub-scanning direction. The first imaging unit has a first resin lens having a negative refractive power only in a sub-scanning direction. The second imaging unit makes the light beam deflected by the deflector form an image on a scanned surface in the sub-scanning direction. The second imaging unit has a second resin lens having a positive refractive power only in the sub-scanning direction.
摘要:
A laser beam optical scanning device which has a laser diode, a collimator lens, a cylindrical lens, a polygonal scanner and an f .theta. lens. The polygonal scanner is made of resin, and when the polygonal scanner is driven to rotate, the reflective facets of the polygonal scanner are distorted to be concave or convex because of a centrifugal force. If the reflective facets are distorted to be concave with rotation of the polygonal scanner, the image surface shifts along the optical axis toward the polygonal scanner. Therefore, in this case, the elements of the optical scanning device are positioned such that the image surface is located behind a light receiving surface while the polygonal scanner is stationary and is located nearer to the light receiving surface while the polygonal scanner is rotating.
摘要:
An image recording apparatus wherein a laser diode which is disposed on a focal point of a micro Fresnel lens emits a laser beam and the laser beam is collimated by the Fresnel lens and scanned on a photosensitive drum by a polygonal mirror and an f.theta. optical system. A change in temperature of the laser diode does not result in such serious defocus as to cause practical problems.

Disclosed is a recording apparatus having a semiconductor laser producing a laser beam with Gauss distribution and an aperture stop. The aperture stop has a diameter in the direction normal to a junction plane of the semiconductor laser which is adjustable to a suitable value and a diameter in the direction parallel to the junction plane is fixed at a predetermined value. This aperture stop transmits the beam in regulated form with minimum loss of energy propagation efficiency.
摘要:
A light beam scanning optical apparatus which writes two lines at one scan on a photosensitive member with light beams emitted from two light sources. A light source unit of the apparatus has a first movable retainer block which retains a first laser diode and a second movable retainer block which retains a second laser diode. The second movable retainer block becomes adjustable two-dimensionally on a base block by loosening screws which fit the second movable retainer block to the base block.
摘要:
A laser beam optical scanning system having a laser diode, a collimator lens, a cylindrical lens, a polygonal mirror and an f.theta. mirror. The f.theta. mirror has a free toric surface whose curvature in the main scanning direction varies in accordance with field angle. The variation of the curvature of the free toric surface is set in accordance with the position of the f.theta. mirror in the optical path, and this appropriate setting of the variation of the curvature enables the f.theta. mirror to correct both distortion and curvature of field in the main scanning direction.
