Abstract:
A mounting device capable of mounting two objects of different sizes is disclosed. The mounting device includes a mounting member including a first end, a second end opposite to the first end, a mounting portion, a securing piece between the first end and the second end, and an installing plate including a first installing portion and a second installing portion. The mounting member is secured to the first installing portion and the second installing portion. When the mounting portion and the securing piece are engaged with the first installing portion, the first end is adapted to abut a first object. When the mounting portion and the installing portion are engaged with the second installing portion, the second end is adapted to abut a second object of a different size from a size of the first object.
Abstract:
A light projecting device includes a base board, a light guiding member, a holding member, a cover, and a positioning member. A plurality of light-emitting elements are arranged in a line on the base board in a main scan direction. The light guiding member faces a radiation surface of the light-emitting elements and guides light projected from the light-emitting elements to an irradiation region of an illuminated object. The holding member holds the base board. The cover covers the base board and the light guiding member. The positioning member positions the light guiding member on the holding member. The holding member and the cover sandwich the light guiding member positioned by the positioning member. The light projecting device includes the holding member, the light guiding member, the base board, and the cover as a single unit which is detachably mountable relative to a chassis of the light projecting device.
Abstract:
A light projection unit includes a substrate, a plurality of light emitting elements arrayed on the substrate in a main scanning direction and including light emitting surfaces, a light guide facing the light emitting surfaces to direct light projected from the light emitting elements onto an illumination target and including a first positioning portion, and a holder including a second positioning portion that engages the first positioning portion of the light guide to position the light guide on the holder. The first positioning portion of the light guide is positioned between centers of light emission of adjacent light emitting elements in the main scanning direction of the substrate when the first positioning portion engages the second positioning portion of the holder.

Abstract:
An image reading apparatus has a platen, first and second carriages, a light source supported on the first carriage, a first mirror to deflect reflected light from the original document toward the second carriage, one or more second mirrors supported on the second carriage to guide the light from the first mirror to image reading device, and rail members. The first carriage has first and second mirror support portions for supporting one side edge portion of the first mirror by two points, and a third mirror support portion for supporting the other side edge portion by one point. The first carriage is supported slidably at its opposite side edge portions respectively on the rail members via slide members disposed at four right and left places including two front and back places, and a height position is adjustable for supporting the first mirror by one point.
Abstract:
An illuminating device includes a light-emitting element that is mounted on a base material and a light-guiding member that guides light from the light-emitting element to an irradiation target, and illuminates the irradiation target with the light transmitted through the light-guiding member. The light-guiding member includes an extending portion that extends from the surface of the base material on which the light-emitting element is mounted to a left side end portion of the base material so as to cover the left side end portion. An image-reading includes this illuminating device. Image-forming apparatus includes this image-reading apparatus.
Abstract:
An image-reading apparatus that optically reads an original, includes: an illuminating section that illuminates the original with light; an imaging unit that creates pixel data on the basis of reflected light reflected from the original; a moving unit that moves the illuminating section and the imaging unit relative to the original in steps of a fixed distance in a scanning direction that points from one end of the original toward another end of the original; an illumination mode controller that, for each unit step of movement out of one entire scanning movement in the scanning direction performed by the moving unit, controls the illuminating section so that the illuminating section is made to operate in each of a plurality of illumination modes.
Abstract:
Provided is a controlling device for controlling an image reading apparatus that optically reads an original, which includes a lighting controlling section that controls a first lighting section and a second lighting section which are the first and second lighting sections provided in the image reading apparatus, form each of the linear light emitting regions, and irradiate the original with light from directions intersecting with each other, and the lighting controlling section includes a first mode unit that controls the first and second lighting sections in a first mode in which one of the first and second lighting sections irradiates the original, a second mode unit that controls the first and second lighting sections in a second mode in which both of the first and second lighting sections irradiate the original.
