  • Copier with improved platen for books to be copied
    Patent number: 5053819
    Abstract: A photocopier for books has a casing on whose top surface is mounted a platten. The platten is set back from the front of the casing, and it extends to a downwardly inclined support surface adapted to support the half of an opened book whose other half is to be copied. In a modification of the copier a step or recess is formed between the platten and the support surface, to enable the sloping part of the book adjacent to its spine to extend or splay outwards, thereby avoiding damage to the spine.
