Abstract: An imaging engine includes a multi-functional structure. This structure functions as an optics barrel. In other words, at least one lens is positioned within the structure. In addition, the structure functions as an attachment/mounting apparatus for an image sensor board, an illumination board, and possibly an illumination/targeting lens structure as well. The structure may also provide a mechanism for attaching/mounting the imaging engine to another structure, such as the housing of a graphical code reader.

Abstract: An imaging engine in accordance with the present disclosure includes a first image sensor section, a second image sensor section, an optics barrel, a first lens carriage that includes at least one lens, and a second lens carriage that includes at least one lens. The first lens carriage is positioned within the optics barrel so that there is a first optical path through the lens(es) in the first lens carriage to the first image sensor section. Similarly, the second lens carriage is positioned within the optics barrel so that there is a second optical path through the lens(es) in the second lens carriage to the second image sensor section. Advantageously, the position of the first lens carriage within the optics barrel and the position of the second lens carriage within the optics barrel are both independently adjustable.
