Abstract: An image sensor module includes a light source unit that emits a linear light beam elongate in a primary scanning direction to an object to be read, and a lens unit including an incidence surface and an output surface oriented opposite to each other. The lens unit is configured to receive light from the object through the incidence surface and output the light through the output surface. The module also includes a sensor IC that receives the light outputted from the output surface, a housing that holds the light source unit and the lens unit, and a support member that supports the lens unit such that the incidence surface is located more distant from the sensor IC than the output surface in a secondary scanning direction. The support member includes a reflection surface that reflects the light from the object toward the incidence surface.

Abstract: An image sensor module includes an elongated light emitting unit, a photodetector, a lens unit, a substrate with the photodetector mounted on. The substrate is spaced apart from the lens unit in a thickness direction of the substrate. The image sensor module further includes a resin case provided with a light emitting unit chamber, a lens unit chamber and a substrate chamber. The lens unit chamber has a first bottom face extending in the first direction, and the substrate chamber has a second bottom face extending in the first direction and facing opposite to the first bottom face in the thickness direction of the substrate. The first or second bottom face is formed with at least one protrusion extending in the thickness direction of the substrate.

Abstract: A monitor display unit having a hologram dry plate, formed by coating a glass base plate with sensitive material, and installed in an instrument panel of a vehicle. On the hologram dry plate are multiply recorded light interference fringes of three-dimensional images of the vehicle seen from the front and the rear of the vehicle. Two image reproduction lamps for illuminating reproduction light toward the hologram dry plate are provided on the right front and the left front of the hologram dry plate. When one image reproduction lamp is lighted, one three-dimensional image is reproduced on the hologram dry plate. Light emission diodes are provided rearward of the hologram dry plate so as to correspond to the positions of lamps on the three-dimensional image. The light emission of the light emission diodes is recognized through the hologram dry plate.
