Abstract: A multifunctional business machine includes a foldable-cover machine, a sheet-fed scanner and two fasteners. The foldable-cover machine has a cover and a platform covered by the cover. The sheet-fed scanner is disposed on the platform. One end of each fastener is fixed in one side of the cover, and another end of each fastener is configured with a shaft applied for pivoting the cover to the sheet-fed scanner. The cover rotates relative to the platform to be lifted with an angle and enable to lean against the sheet-fed scanner.

Abstract: The present invention discloses a stacking tray device to be used for a business machine. The stacking tray device comprises a tray, a guide plate and a stopper, wherein paper is placed on the tray, the guide plate moves relative to the tray and restricts the size of the paper, and the stopper sets the position where the guide plate stops when the guide plate is pushed from the center towards the outside. When the stopper is in a lock position, the guide plate stops at a first position corresponding to a first standard paper size; when the stopper is in an unlock position, the guide plate stops at a second position corresponding to an oversized paper size.

Abstract: A multi-mode scanner comprises a first body, a second body and a scanning module. The first body connected to the second body has connected first and second sides. A passageway accommodating a first portion of a bent document is formed between the first and second bodies. A second portion of the bent document is connected to the first portion of the bent document and supported by a second side of the first body. The first and second bodies are configured such that a weight of the bent document makes the second portion be in flat surface contact with the second side, or makes the first portion be in flat surface contact with first side. The scanning module disposed in one or both of the first and second bodies performs an image scan operation on the first portion of the bent document in the passageway to obtain an image signal.

Abstract: A multi-purpose scanner comprises a first body, a second body and a scanning module. The second body is disposed on the first body. A first passageway and a second passageway, which are for accommodating a first portion and a second portion of an angled document, and are disposed on a first plane and a second plane, respectively, are formed between the first body and the second body. An included angle is formed between the first plane and the second plane. The scanning module, disposed in the first body and/or the second body, performs an image scan operation on the first portion of the angled document in the first passageway to obtain an image signal.

Abstract: An image-processing apparatus is disclosed and includes a platform casing, a movable image-capturing device, and an operation panel. The platform casing includes a scan plane and an oblique plane for supporting an original. The oblique plane is disposed at a first side of the scan plane. The movable image-capturing device is movably installed in the platform casing for capturing an image of the original placed on the scan plane. The operation panel is connected to the platform casing and disposed at a second side of the scan plane. Thereby, a user may effortlessly operate the image-processing apparatus to scan a bound document.
