Abstract:
A first reflection light guide includes an axial part as an end part, and a main body part, has a linear rod-like shape including the end part and the main body part, and allows light from a first reflection light source to enter the end part and to be emitted from the main body part. The end part of the first reflection light guide is narrower than the main body part, and includes a contact surface in contact with a cap. The cap includes a light source side opening. A first reflection light source is arranged at the light source side opening. The first reflection light source faces the end part.
Abstract:
An image sensor unit includes: a light condenser that collects light from the reading target object; an image sensor that receives the collected light collected and converts it into an electric signal; a housing having an elongated shape housing the light condenser and image sensor; and an elongated rigid member provided on a side surface elongated in an elongated direction of the housing. The housing has a multiple positions for fixation on the side surface. The rigid member is fixed to the side surface of the housing at at least two positions. A warping amount adjusting part is provided between the positions at which the rigid member is fixed. The warping amount adjusting part is capable of holding warping amount in the direction of the optical axis of the light condenser of the housing by intervention of a warping amount adjusting member between the rigid member and the housing.
Abstract:
Provided is a control unit of a conveying apparatus, the conveying apparatus including: a conveying unit that conveys recording paper along a conveyance path; an imaging unit that images the recording paper; and a light emitting unit arranged on an opposite side of the imaging unit across the conveyance path, wherein the control unit detects conveyance information of the recording paper based on image information of the recording paper imaged by the imaging unit in a state in which light from the light emitting unit is transmitted through the recording paper. The control unit detects the conveyance information of the recording paper based on a plurality of images of the recording paper imaged at different timings by the imaging unit.
Abstract:
An image sensor unit includes a light emitting element, a light guide that has a substantially rod-like shape and shapes light emitted by the light emitting element into a line, a light condenser that focuses light from an illuminated object, an image sensor that detects the light focused by the light condenser, and a frame in which a light guide housing chamber that houses the light guide and an image sensor housing chamber that houses the image sensor are formed. A correction optical path that extends from the light guide to the image sensor without passing through the light condenser is formed in the frame.
Abstract:
An illumination apparatus includes: a light source; a rod-like light guide having an incident surface that enters light from the light source that is disposed on one side in a main-scan direction, a diffusing surface that diffuses light that enters from the incident surface, and an emission surface that linearly emits light towards a bill; and a reflection member having a reflection surface that reflects light diffused by the diffusing surface to the light guide. The light guide has a locking projection that is locked in the reflection member on one side in the main-scan direction. The reflection member has a locking hole in which the locking projection is locked. A cut-out portion at which one part is cut out is formed in the locking hole.
Abstract:
An illumination apparatus includes a light source and a light guide formed in a rod shape. An end surface in a longitudinal direction is an incident surface that receives light emitted from the light source. Diffusing patterns are formed on the light guide, and intervals between the diffusing patterns closer to the incident surface in a first area close to the incident surface are smaller than intervals between the diffusing patterns closer to the incident surface in a second area farther from the incident surface than the first area.
Abstract:
In an image sensor unit, a frame includes a light blocking portion that protrudes toward one surface of a circuit board at a position between a light source and an image sensor. On the one surface of the circuit board, a conductive portion that continuously overlaps with external lines of the light blocking portion in a sub-scan direction in a view of the circuit board in a direction orthogonal to the one surface is formed.
Abstract:
An illumination apparatus includes: a light guide that is formed in a rod shape and includes a positioning portion that is formed at one end in a longitudinal direction, and light incident surfaces that are formed at two end faces in the longitudinal direction; and light sources that are arranged in the vicinity of the light incident surfaces, respectively, and that emit light that is incident on the incident surfaces. The light guide is formed by injection molding. A gate portion for supplying a resin material during injection molding opens at a position that corresponds to a tip face of the positioning portion.
Abstract:
A configuration is adopted in which an image sensor unit includes: a sensor substrate on which a plurality of photoelectric conversion elements are mounted; a light source that includes light-emitting elements and is for illuminating a document; a light guide that guides light from the light source from one end face in a longitudinal direction and linearly illuminates the document; a rod lens array imaging reflected light from the document on the sensor substrate; and a frame attaching each of these, and in which the frame detachably includes a spacer provided in proximity to the light source, and the spacer includes a light shield roof elongated so as to cover the light source and the end of the light guide.
