摘要:
A variable magnification electrophotographic copier wherein the ratio of object and image distances is changed by rotating a focusing device about an axis orthogonal to its optical axis. In a preferred embodiment, the focusing device is a refractive lens having a shape factor different from zero; the rotational axis intersects the optical axis; and the rotation angle is 180.degree. selectively to reverse the lens surfaces and provide images of two different magnifications each having minimum spherical aberration.
摘要:
A copier for providing photographic copies of different sized originals, having an optical system variable for altering the magnification of an original, a scale member movable to locate the end of each respective size of original on the copier, and a link mechanism intercoupling the optical system and the scale to automatically vary the system magnification in accordance with the location of the scale.
摘要:
The device comprises a lamp which directs a light beam to a photosensitive surface through symbols contained on a rotating disc, along a straight axis without changement of direction, the distance between the lamp and the sensitive surface being maintained constant. The device further comprises an enlarging objective movable along the optical axis and allowing to vary continuously the size of the projection of the symbols between two limits, namely between about 0.5 and 1.5 times the normal size of the symbols.
