Patent number: 7753363Abstract: A paper feeding device includes a cover, a base, a pickup roller assembly and at least one paper blocking unit. The paper blocking unit is placed beside the pickup roller assembly, has a paper blocking element and a projection projecting from the upper portion of the side wall of the pickup roller assembly. The paper blocking element includes a connecting portion, a paper blocking arm, a pivot rotatablely connecting the cover. A connecting arm extends upwards from the end of the pivot, a blocking portion projects from the outer side of the connecting arm, a passage is formed between the blocking portion and the connecting arm. The projection can be downward against the blocking portion of the paper blocking element or pass through the passage of the paper blocking element to allow the paper to be fed in, so the cooperation is easy, the paper feeding device works smoothly.Type: GrantFiled: May 9, 2007Date of Patent: July 13, 2010Assignee: Foxlink Image Technology Co., Ltd.Inventors: Chia-Chih Liu, Chih-Ming Lin, Huan-Hsing Hsiao

Patent number: 7367556Abstract: A sheet-handling apparatus includes a base, a second motor and a sheet-fetching assembly driven by the second motor. The sheet-fetching assembly has a passive gear and a floating gear. When the passive gear rotates, the floating gear revolves around the passive gear. A plurality of driving rollers are driven by a first motor. A plurality of driven rollers are driven by driving rollers, respectively. A prop assembly includes a brace arranged in the base, a prop axel engaged in the brace, a twist arm fixed at the prop axel and having a plurality of teeth for contacting with the floating gear, a swimming arm sleeved and firmly engaged with the swimming arm and a spring component installed on a support board of the swimming arm. The passive gear drives the floating gear descending and ascending. There are two motors provided in the sheet-handling apparatus in order to simplify the structure of the sheet-handling apparatus.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 2005Date of Patent: May 6, 2008Assignee: Foxlink Image Technology Co., Ltd.Inventors: Chih-Ming Lin, Chih-Yang Chen, Huan-Hsing Hsiao

Publication number: 20060279807Abstract: A flat bed scanner having a transparent platform and a scanning mechanism is provided in the present invention. The transparent platform is used to support the objects that wait for scanning. The scanning mechanism is movably placed under the transparent platform along the length direction of the transparent platform. The scanning mechanism includes a plurality of LEDs, a camera lens and a CCD. The LEDs are arranged in a line along the width direction of the transparent platform. The scanning mechanism further includes a diffuser that is placed over the LEDs and has the same width with the transparent platform, and the diffuser diffuses the light beams radiated from the LEDs and then projects the light beams being diffused over the objects that wait for scanning.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 8, 2005Publication date: December 14, 2006Inventors: Chun-Hsiang Kung, Chou-Kan Peng, Chih-Ming Lin, Huan-Hsing Hsiao

Patent number: 7048271Abstract: A sheet separator for an automatic document feeder of the invention is capable of separating an outmost sheet from a stack. The separator includes a separating roller driven by a driving device, a friction roller, a first shaft, and a force-applying mechanism for pushing the separating and friction rollers against each other. The friction roller has a first rotating state, in which the friction roller is driven by the separating roller, a stationary state when the separating roller feeds a first sheet, and a second rotating state, in which the friction roller is driven by a second sheet fed by the separating roller. The first shaft is inserted into the friction roller to provide a damping torque for stopping the rotation of the friction roller.Type: GrantFiled: October 9, 2003Date of Patent: May 23, 2006Inventors: Thomas Sheng, Huan-Hsing Hsiao
