Abstract:
An image-reading device is provided with a case having an empty section, a scanner for scanning an original so as to output image data derived from the original by reciprocally moving inside the empty section, a transparent reading-use window that faces the reading region of the original with respect to the scanner, and a transparent confirming-use window that is formed in the case so as to face the reading-use window, with the empty section located in between. This device enables visual confirmation of the original through the reading-use window, the empty section and the confirming-use window. Therefore, the device allows the operator to confirm a positional relationship between the reading-use window that forms the image-reading surface for the scanner and the original to be read through visual observation, readily as well as accurately. Thus, the device makes it possible to readily output the image data accurately.
Abstract:
An object of the present invention is to provide a facsimile apparatus having a high resolution image display unit and a hard copying unit, which is capable of preventing wasteful consumption of recording paper sheets while revealing a reduced size and excellent operation facility. In order to achieve the aforesaid object, according to the present invention, there is provided a facsimile apparatus having the image display unit comprising a reflecting mirror for displaying a toner image formed on an image recording medium in response to an image signal while inverting the toner image into a readable direction and a cover, a selection unit for determining whether or not it is necessary to transfer and fix the toner image onto the recording paper sheet in accordance with whether or not it is necessary to record image information discriminated from the toner image displayed on said image display unit, and the hard copying unit for transferring fixing the toner image formed on the image recording medium by a transferring roller and a drive roller in response to a selection signal supplied from the selection unit.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an image processing apparatus which can read an image of an original, and display the read image on a display and/or record the read image on a recording medium. The image processing apparatus comprises display means for displaying an image, an original inlet provided in the vicinity of one end of a display surface of the display means, an original outlet provided in the vicinity of the other end of the display surface of the display means, an original feeding path arranged behind the display means and adapted to guide an original introduced into the original inlet to the original outlet, and reading means for reading the original being fed along the original feeding path and for emitting an image signal on the basis of which the image of the original is displayed on the display surface of the display means.
Abstract:
Reflected image light obtained by illuminating a reading portion to be read on a given objective image plane is sent to an image sensor located on the rear side through a reflecting member disposed substantially just above the reading portion. By forming a viewing path inclined forward against or toward with respect to a vertical plane the image sensor so as to permit the reading portion to be observed easily, the desired image light reflected from the reading portion is little interfered with external light entering inside the scanner through the viewing path, thereby to obtain image processing of high quality.
Abstract:
A picture reading apparatus is disclosed which comprises a camera which converts a picture to be read to an electric signal, a supporting member for supporting the camera movably, and a voice input unit. A control device serves to minimize the output from the voice input unit during movement of the supporting member. Thus while a mechanism for moving the camera is in operation, the output from the voice input unit is minimized to suppress the output of operational noise.
Abstract:
Camera for opto-electronic scanning of any desired scene which is projected along a primary optical beam path onto a planar image field of the camera. A line image sensor having a plurality of sensor elements arranged in a line, and an auxiliary image sensor comprising a plurality of sensor elements having the form of an area array, are mounted on a carrier of a first moving means which displaces the line image sensor together with the area image sensor through the planar image field of the camera and perpendicularly to the direction of the sensor line.
Abstract:
An image input apparatus is disclosed, which comprises a running roller manually rolled along an image information surface for the scanning thereof, position detecting means for detecting the position of the running roller according to the rotation thereof, a line sensor for reading out image information of the image information surface, a line sensor driving circuit for driving the line sensor according to a control pulse signal having a constant cycle period, and memory means for storing the output of the line sensor. The output of the position detecting means is utilized as address data of a memory to accurately store image information in the memory.
