Abstract:
A shock lockup apparatus is mounted on the chassis of an image scanning device includes a stopping block and a lockup module, with part of the transmission belt driving the chassis of the image scanning device being placed in between. In such a manner, when the image scanning device is being moved and the chassis receives shock or momentum, then the locking unit of the lockup module will move toward the stopping block to clip the transmission belt and fix the chassis synchronously.
Abstract:
An optical scanning apparatus including a chassis having a panel, the panel having an opening defined therethrough. The apparatus has a scanner carriage which is moveably supported within the chassis. A carriage locking device includes an elongated locking member which is moveably disposed within the opening in the panel and, when the locking member is moved in a downward direction within the opening, the locking device secures the scanner carriage in a relatively fixed position with respect to the chassis.
Abstract:
A locking apparatus for a movable carry module, comprises a controller using to fix the movable carry module of an electric device. The controller has a movable locking shaft normality stretch in the movable carry module, and applies to fix the movable carry module. The electric device supplies the electric power to the controller when receiving the external electric power, and then the locking shaft departs from the movable carry module, such that the movable carry module can move freely.
Abstract:
An automatic lock device automatically disengages or forms a lock state of the optical module of a scanner. By plugging and unplugging a power plug on the case of the scanner, a clip departs from or embedded into the optical module. Thus, users can lock or unlock the optical module without other additional operation while transporting the scanner. It avoids possible damages to the optical module.
Abstract:
In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, a method comprises placing an image capture device into a packaging, inserting at least a portion of a locking insert into a housing of the image capture device through the packaging, and engaging the portion of the locking insert with a carriage disposed in the housing to substantially immobilize the carriage.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a locking apparatus for switching between a lock state and an unlock state of a sliding device in a system. The system has a plug and a socket. The sliding device has a shaft. The locking apparatus has a sliding member, a spring, a hook, and a connecting member. The hook has an end part and a bending portion for locking the shaft. When the plug is plugged into the socket, the locking apparatus unlocks the shaft. When the plug is pulled out from the socket, the locking apparatus locks the shaft.
Abstract:
An image reading apparatus includes a scanner and an ADF. The scanner includes a housing having an upper surface which is formed of a document table glass and a through-read glass. The housing contains first and second carriages which can slide along rails. In a through-read mode, the first carriage is moved to a reading position below the through-read glass, and the case of the first carriage is magnetically held by a fixing mechanism, and the first carriage is fixed at a reading position. A vibration-absorbing member is interposed between the fixing mechanism and the case.
Abstract:
The invention is a scan device with elastic reserve type and its scan method, mainly applied to the light, thin, short and small scanner, image recorder, etc. The invention includes a guide bar, a chassis, a gear structure, an elastic module, a fastening structure and a sensor device, wherein, a scan module is on the chassis, the gear structure is consisting of at least one gear, the fastening structure is consisting of at least two fasteners and the sensor device is consisting of at least two sensors with one objective. To use the elasticity with the feature of reserving ability and the fastening structure is to move the chassis for scanning. The scanning motion of start and stop is via the sensor device. For combining the function of the above each part, most of them take traditionally mechanical transmission except that scan module is electrical power.
Abstract:
An elastic fixing screw valve body is provided on a wall of a frame of an image-reading apparatus. The valve body allows a carriage fixing screw to be passed through the through-hole in the wall and the valve body when the image-reading device is prepared for transport to a new location so as to secure one or more carriages within the frame to the wall. The valve body also allows the carriage fixing screw to be removed when the image-reading device is prepared for normal scanning operation after being transported to the new location. In addition, the valve body acts to seal the interior space of the frame from invasion by dust via the through-hole when the carriage fixing screw is removed from the through-hole and normal scanning operation of the image-reading apparatus is resumed at the new location.
Abstract:
A locking device for locking a movable module of an electronic apparatus disclosed by the invention mainly includes a control member and a latch connected to the control member. The control member is selectively movable between a first position for locking the movable module and a second position for releasing the movable module. When the latch stops at the first position, it also latches onto an operational interface or a mechanism component so as to prevent the user from electrically or mechanically operating the apparatus.
