  • Patent number: 7274494
    Abstract: A height adjustment structure for an image-scanning device. The scanning device has a guiding rod, an optical system and a document panel. The guiding rod and the document panel are fixed relative to each other. The optical system includes a box body and an axial rod bearer that can slide along into the guiding rod. The height adjustment structure includes a first positioning section and a second positioning section. The first positioning section is attached to one side of the box body and the second positioning section is attached to one side the axial rod bearer that faces the first positioning section. The first positioning section and the second positioning section has hooking mechanism, screwing mechanism or teeth-meshing mechanism for fixing the box body relative to the axial rod bearer and hence setting the distance from the box body to the document panel.

  • Publication number: 20050180718
    Abstract: An optical member for gathering light sets on one side of a light source of a plane image input device which places documents on. The optical member for gathering light comprises a body that includes an incident surface closed to the side of the light source, a first reflecting surface, a second reflecting surface, and an emergent surface respect to the documents. When using, the side of the light source emits light into the body through the incident surface. Then light processes total internal reflection through the first and the second reflecting surface inside the body. Finally, light emerges to the documents. So light emits from the side and from the other side of the light source of the plane image input device both can be used to improve the brightness of the documents and to improve the scanning efficiency when the plane image inputting instruction in high running speed.

  • Patent number: 6894852
    Abstract: An optical device uses in a plane image input device. The optical device comprises a body including an incident end and an emergent end. After a light beam enters the body via the incident end, undergoes a total reflection, and emerges from the emergent end. Thus, the size of the plane image input device can be minimized and the optical energy attenuation can be reduced during the transmission process.

  • Publication number: 20040052081
    Abstract: A light source steadying assembly which fixes the relative distance between the lighting device and the transparent device by the elastic structure, such that all deformations induced by assembly and operation are absorbed. The elastic structure could be located in the gap between the chassis and the lighting device or in the gap between the lighting device and the transparent device. Further, the connecting structure is optional to be located in the gap without the elastic structure such that the angle between the transparent device and the lighting device is further fixed.

  • Publication number: 20030184869
    Abstract: A light focusing and dispersing apparatus of a light source module is disclosed. The light focusing and dispersing apparatus is particularly used in image scanners such as a single pass color scanner. The light focusing and dispersing apparatus concentrates light from a light source to form a light beam so as to upgrade the use efficiency of light energy. The light focusing and dispersing apparatus disperses the light beam from the light source to form red, green and blue light beams to illuminate a document to be scanned. The red, green and blue light beams reflected from the scanned document emit onto array of image sensors comprising red, green and blue light sensitive regions respectively.
