Abstract:
A contact-type linear image sensor has two separate substrates (l2, l4) aligned adjacent to each other A linear array (D) of amorphous silicon photoelectric converting elements serving as photoelectric cells and a matrix wiring unit (28) are provided on a first substrate (l2) Driver IC chips (34, 36) are mounted on a second substrate (l4) Connection pad patterns (20a) for common cell electrodes (20) of cell groups (Dl, D2,..., Dm) and connection pad patterns (32a, 32b, 32c, 32d) for row signal lines (26) of the matrix wiring unit (28) are provided concentrically at a peripheral edge of the first substrate (l2) to be alinged along a junction edge line defined between the substrates (l2, l4). Connection pad patterns (38) for the IC chips (34, 36) are linearly aligned at a peripheral edge of the second substrate (l4) and along the substrate junction edge line to oppose the pad patterns (20a, 32a, 32b, 32c, 32d) of the first substrate (l2). A connector unit for electrically connecting the pad patterns of the first and second substrates (l2, l4) may be provided at only one position of the junction edge portion of the first and second substrates (l2, l4).
Abstract:
본 발명에 따른 스캐너 모듈 및 이를 채용한 이미지 스캐닝장치는 광을 조사하는 광원과, 주 주사방향으로 연장되어 광원에서 조사된 광의 경로를 변환하는 광가이드와, 광가이드의 양단부 중 적어도 어느 하나를 탄성지지하는 탄성부재를 포함하여, 광가이드가 탄성부재에 의해 탄성지지되어 있으므로, 열팽창에 의해 광가이드의 길이가 증가하게 되더라도 광가이드의 출사면이 볼록하게 변형되는 현상은 감소한다.
Abstract:
A scanner module and an image scanning apparatus employing the same are provided to supply a light guide by using a support protrusion, thereby reducing deformation of the light guide. A light source applies light. The light guide(413) is extended in a main scanning direction. The light guide converts a travel route of the light applied from the light source. In a scanner module main body(400), a light guide installation unit(400a) is concavely installed. The support protrusion(415) is protruded in an inlet of the light guide installation unit. The support protrusion supports the light guide.
Abstract:
An illuminating apparatus includes a columnar light guide (1, 2), a board (11, 12) having a light source (3, 4, 5, 6) fastened on one surface thereof, and a holder (7, 8). The holder is formed with a through-hole (7a, 7b, 8a, 8b) into which an end of the light guide (1, 2) in the columnar center axis direction is fitted to hold the light guide (1, 2), and a catch (7c, 7d, 8c, 8d) that catches and holds the board (11, 12) with the light source (3, 4, 5, 6) facing the end surface of the light guide (1, 2) in the columnar center axis direction in the through-hole (7a, 7b, 8a, 8b).
Abstract:
A multi-functional device comprising an image forming apparatus to form a printing image and a scanner module to scan an image in a main scanning direction. The scanner module includes an illuminator to illuminate a light to a document mount, a sensor unit to read an image information of an object placed on the document mount, and an imaging lens which is disposed between the document mount and the sensor unit and focuses the light reflected from the object onto the sensor unit. The illuminator includes a light source to emit light, a light guiding unit which is lengthened in a sub-scanning direction, faces the document mount and changes a traveling path of the light emitted from the light source to illuminate the document mount, and a guide holder which comprises an installation part where the light guiding unit is installed, and a mounting part where the light source holder is mounted to provide the light source at least one side of the light guiding unit.
Abstract:
A contact-type image sensor (20) comprises a case (21), a glass cover (22) provided on an upper surface of the case (21), a bottom substrate (23) mounted in a bottom surface of the case (21), light receiving elements (24) mounted on the bottom substrate, light emitting elements (25) for irradiating an object (D) on the glass cover (22) with light, and a rod lens array (27) for collecting the light reflected by the object (D) on the glass cover (22) onto the light receiving elements (24). The light emitting elements (25) are mounted on the bottom substrate (23). The contact-type image sensor further comprises a light guide (26) provided in the case (21) for efficiently directing the light from the light emitting elements (25) to a predetermined region (L) of the glass cover (22). The case (21) is formed with a holding groove (29) for receiving the rod lenses array (27) from above, and the light guide (26) has ends each formed with a tab (37) for pressing the rod lens array (26) from above.
