Abstract: An automatic document feeder includes a horizontal feeding path, a curve feeding path, a scanning unit arranged in the horizontal feeding path, a motor, a movable document guider, an actuator, a feeding roller arranged in the horizontal feeding path, and a transmission structure. One end of the curve feeding path is connected with a common document inlet, the other end of the curve feeding path is connected with a middle of the horizontal feeding path. A gentle bending corner is formed at a junction area between the curve feeding path and the horizontal feeding path. The motor outputs a forward torque or a converse torque. The movable document guider is rotatably positioned near the gentle bending corner. The actuator is rotatably positioned near the gentle bending corner. The transmission structure is connected among the motor, the feeding roller and the actuator.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes a main body, a base, a holder and a connecting rod. The main body has a bottom surface, a top surface, a lower surface, a paper outlet and a paper inlet. The base has a bottom board being adjacent to the paper outlet, at least one vertical board being connected to the bottom board and being pivoted on the main body, and a first hinge being located at the bottom board. The holder has a beam, at least one support arm being connected to the beam, and a second hinge being located at the beam. The tip portion is higher than the vertical board. The connecting rod has opposite end portions being pivoted on the first hinge and the second hinge respectively. As described above, the occupying area is further reduced in an unused status.

Abstract: A pick-up device disposed between an input tray and a feeding path includes a paper feeding unit for feeding paper, a separation roller disposed opposite to the paper feeding unit, a blocking arm disposed between the input tray and the paper feeding unit and configured to be switchably disposed between a blocking position for blocking the paper and a feeding position for passing the paper through the feeding path, and a guiding arm disposed in the feeding path through a pivot shaft and having a guiding portion. The pivot shaft is located upstream of the separation roller, and the guiding portion is swingably disposed in a seam space formed by the paper feeding unit and the separation roller.

Abstract: A flexural document pick-up device includes: a feeding path comprised of a upper wall and a lower wall; a input tray arranged upstream to the feeding path; a paper feeding unit arranged partially in the feeding path; a separation roller disposed on the opposite side of the paper feeding unit; a blocking arm disposed upstream to the paper feeding unit; a securing groove arranged on the upper wall; and a guiding unit with the following portions disposed sequentially from downstream to upstream of the feeding direction: a securing section which is secured to the securing groove, a flexure section which is extended from the securing section to the feeding path, a guiding section which is connected to the flexure section and essentially parallel to the feeding path, a lifting section which is connected to the guiding section and a vertex which is arranged on the end of the lifting section.

Abstract: The pick-up device disposed between the input tray and the feeding path and includes a Paper feeding unit for feeding the paper from the input tray; a separation roller disposed opposite to the Paper feeding unit and contacting each other; a blocking arm disposed between the input tray and the Paper feeding unit, and configured to be switchable disposed between a blocking position for blocking the paper and a feeding position for passing the paper through the feeding path; and a guiding arm, the guiding arm is disposed in the feeding path through a pivot shaft, and includes a guiding portion, the pivot shaft is located upstream of the separation roller, and the guiding portion is swingable disposed in a seam space formed by the Paper feeding unit and the separation roller; and wherein a distance from the axle of the separation roller to the guiding portion is greater than the wheel diameter of the separation roller, and the vertical distance between the paper to be fed and the guiding portion is greater than

Abstract: An automatic gluing machine includes an automatic gluing mechanism. The automatic gluing mechanism includes a sleeve, a pushing component mounted to the sleeve, an assembling head, and a driving module including a gear module. The sleeve is equipped with a first sleeve gear. The pushing component includes a rotating body and a first rotary gear. The assembling head is assembled inside the sleeve. The gear module cooperates the first rotary gear to drive the rotating body to rotate bidirectionally. The gear module cooperates with the first sleeve gear to make the sleeve to rotate in a single direction. A rotation speed difference between the first rotary gear and the first sleeve gear is generated, so after every rotation of the assembling head, a single-direction rotation displacement of the assembling head is generated relative to a last rotation of the assembling head.

Abstract: A separation function releasing mechanism includes a frame defining two activating slots at two opposite sides, a separating mechanism which includes a bracket pivoted to the frame and a group of retard rollers rotatably mounted to the frame, a group of separating rollers located under the retard rollers, and a pushing mechanism which includes a connecting element mounted in one side of the frame and capable of sliding forward and backward. Two opposite sides of the bracket protrude outward to form a pair of activating columns slidably located in the activating slots with the distal ends projecting outward out of the activating slots. A top face of a rear of the connecting element is defined as a slantwise pushing plane and a horizontal blocking plane in front of the pushing plane which are located under and in front of the activating column to work closely with the activating column.

Abstract: An analytical strip including a substrate and a channel structure is disclosed. A substrate has a flat surface and the channel is formed on the flat surface according to a predetermined pattern. The surface of channel structure is not lower than the surface of the substrate. The channel has a hollow-matrix conformation and the channel is more hydrophilic than the flat surface of the substrate is. The strip also contains a reaction material formed in the hollow-matrix.
