A second distance is between the second position section and the first board. The first distance is different from the second distance. The main part is movably disposed on the first board for positioning the abutted part at the first position section or the second position section to pivot the second board with a first angle or a second angle between the first board and the second board, and the first angle is different from the second angle.
Abstract: A feeding device for a digital processing machine includes a paper passage, a sheet-feeding roller, a friction device, and a slide. The sheet-feeding roller is disposed in the paper passage, and the friction device is disposed opposite to the sheet-feeding roller. The sheet-feeding roller separates a sheet with the friction device. The slide is disposed at a left side and a right side of the sheet-feeding roller. The slide is lowered from a first position to a second position when the sheet-feeding roller rotates, such that the sheet contacts the sheet-feeding roller.
Abstract: A method for generating a search index, applicable for a database system having a first database and a second database, includes the follow steps: receiving an access instruction corresponding to a first document, analyzing the first document to obtain a plurality of key character strings, writing the first document into the first database or the second database based on the access instruction and generating address information corresponding to the first document accordingly, and generating a search index corresponding to the first document based on the address information and the key character strings.
Abstract: A sheet separation mechanism comprises a separation roller set and a reverse roller set rotating in the same rotation direction. The reverse roller set presses sheets onto the separation roller set to stop one or multiple ones of the sheets close to the reverse roller set from passing through a nip between the separation and reverse roller sets, and allow the sheet directly contacting the separation roller set to pass through the nip. The reverse roller set comprises a shaft, and two reverse rollers and an annular member all mounted on the shaft, which rotates the reverse rollers. The annular member, disposed between the two reverse rollers, is rotatable relatively to the shaft and movable relatively to the shaft in a radial direction of the shaft. The annular member and the reverse rollers commonly press the sheets. A sheet-fed scanning apparatus using the sheet separation mechanism is also provided.
Abstract: An image forming agent storage member capable of being resupplied with an image forming agent is disclosed. The image forming agent storage member includes a housing, an image forming agent entry, and a fluid-discharge mechanism. The housing is for carrying the image forming agent. The image forming agent entry is disposed at one end of the housing. The fluid-discharge mechanism is disposed on a surface of the housing. When the image forming agent is injected into the housing via the image forming agent entry, a fluid inside the housing is discharged via the fluid-discharge mechanism. A digital machine includes the said image forming agent storage member is also disclosed.
Abstract: An imaging apparatus includes frame, rotatable member, exposing and imaging assembly. The frame includes accommodation space, lower and upper surfaces on the accommodation space. The rotatable member includes pressed portion, pivoting portion and arm. The pivoting portion pivots to the frame. The scanning assembly assembled to the arm and has image capturing position and lifted position. The scanning assembly at the image capturing position is away from the upper surface. The scanning assembly at the lifted position is close to the upper surface. The imaging assembly includes toner cartridge and photosensitization unit. The toner cartridge has pressing surface facing the upper surface. The imaging assembly is rotatable relative to the frame to move the toner cartridge to be alternatively close to or away from the upper surface. When the toner cartridge is close to the upper surface, the pressing surface presses the pressed portion to lift the scanning assembly.
Abstract: A method for reproducing images comprises the steps of: obtaining 1st to Nth scan images in order, where N is a positive integer greater than 2; processing the 1st to Nth scan images into 1st to Nth document images and obtaining sizes of the 1st to Nth document images; and performing an ordered document typesetting according to an ordered accumulated size of the 1st to Nth document images to generate image data corresponding to one or multiple output pages. An image-processing apparatus is also provided. Thus, it is possible to prevent the waste of printing a small-size document image on a large-size sheet, and the user can obtain the order of documents according to the order of the output pages. So, an instinctive and environment protective copying technical solution can be provided, and an output result can be further adjusted.
Abstract: A transport mechanism for a peripheral device and an operating method including the same are provided. The transport mechanism includes a tray, at least a transport roller, a detector, a trigger component and a processor. The tray includes an opening extending through the tray. The transport roller is rotatably installed in the opening and protruded from the tray to transport a flexible object to move along a transport path. The detector near the tray has a detecting area. The trigger component is located in the opening and spaced apart from the flexible object on the transport path. The flexible object deviated from the transport path presses the trigger component to enter or leave the detecting area and triggers the detector to transmit an abnormal detecting signal. The processor receives the abnormal detecting signal to stop the transport roller.
Abstract: A duplex peripheral comprises: a passage; a feeding mechanism transporting a medium into the passage; two scanning modules disposed on two sides of the passage and acquiring front and reverse side images of the medium, respectively; a transporting mechanism transporting the medium through the passage and past the scanning modules; a control module, electrically connected to the scanning modules, the feeding mechanism and the transporting mechanism, and digitizing the front side image and the reverse side image; and an output unit electrically connected to the control module, and receiving and outputting the front and reverse side images. A width of the medium that can be accommodated within the passage and the feeding mechanism is greater than or equal to a short side of an A4 size sheet. The transporting mechanism defines a transportable gap smaller than or equal to a short side of an A7 size sheet.
Abstract: A smart copy apparatus comprises a scanning module, a processing module and a printing module. The scanning module scans an original to obtain fragment scan images. The processing module electrically connected to the scanning module receives the fragment scan images, and determines a size of the original according to the fragment scan images to obtain a scan-size parameter, and generates print data according to the fragment scan images, the scan-size parameter and a print parameter. The printing module receives the print data, and prints the print data on a print medium.
