Technical field
The present invention relates to light source, particularly relate to the light source of image read-out.
Background technology
Have both photocopier, scanner, Printers and Faxes machine function, perhaps facsimile machine, the machine of the multi-function printer of photocopier and printer function etc. has and reads the image read-out that is depicted in the image (hereinafter referred to as original copy) of the shape of the character pattern on paper etc. and position etc.
Light source as above-mentioned image read-out, just known in the past and dwindle optical mode (dwindling the CCD mode), but this formation is because the depth of focus of lens is big, even if having the advantage that also can access distinct image in original copy leaves the state of original copy face., because it is large-scale to adopt the light source that dwindles optical mode to become, need to consider the miniaturization of light source. during slimming, as shown in figure 30, will doubly just on the spot will import to the adhering mode of transducer 108 with waiting from the information of original copy.
That is, formation will as the led array 112 of light source for rod type lens array 121 left and right symmetrically assortments above original copy face 106, accept to shine the constituting of light of this original copy face 106 by above-mentioned rod type lens array 121.Above-mentioned led array 112 has the formation at a plurality of LED elements 125 of substrate 124 upper edge main scanning direction assortments for example shown in Figure 31.The total length of above-mentioned rod type lens array 121 is identical with the total length of above-mentioned led array 112, this rod type lens array 121 for example shown in figure 32, forms a plurality of institute of assortment measured length, decide the rod-shaped lens 122 of the cylindrical shape of diameter, by constituting that substrate 124 is clamped.
Since this formation with dwindle optical mode (dwindling the CCD mode) relatively, the distance between original copy face 106 and this rod-shaped lens 122 is diminished, so image read-out is all diminished.
Again, for the focal length that makes above-mentioned rod type lens array 121 (rod-shaped lens 122) diminishes, the diameter of rod-shaped lens 122 is diminished, but exist when the diameter of rod-shaped lens 122 diminishes, it is many that the optical noise of intermodulation effect between the rod-shaped lens 122 and hot spot light etc. becomes, and makes the unclear shortcoming of the picture that is projected on the transducer 108.Therefore, the applicant of present patent application has proposed the scheme of the formation (will be explained below) of the rod type lens array that optical noise lacks than patent application 2000-224156.
Further, because above-mentioned led array 112 is set of point-source of light, so can not between original copy face 106 and led array 112, keep distance to a certain degree and can not guarantee illuminance uniformity on the original copy face 106.Because this point, be limited for thin smallization with the device of the adhering mode of above-mentioned led array 112.Therefore, the applicant of present patent application has proposed in patent application 2000-217561 etc. for the purpose that the reaches thin smallization scheme with the light source of electroluminescent body.
This configuration example is as shown in figure 33.Promptly, on the transparent substrate 102 of long glass substrate or transparent resin etc., form transparent electrode layer 103 along the scanning direction, on transparent electrode layer 103, form electroluminescent layer 101, further lamination metal electrode layer 104 on electroluminescent layer 101 as optical medium.Then, lead-in wire 111a, 111b is connected with metal electrode layer 104 with transparent electrode layer 103.
Again, as the formation that is used to realize with the color light source of above-mentioned electroluminescent body, what be that the lamination width equates on short direction as shown in figure 34 sends R (red), G (green), the electroluminescent layer 101r of all kinds of B (indigo plant) light, 101g, the formation of 101b.In the situation of color light source, as shown in figure 34, with in transparent electrode layer 103 or the metal electrode layer 104 either party as electroluminescent layer 101r of all kinds, 101g, the common electrode of 101b.And by with each electroluminescent layer 101r, 101g, 3 single electrodes of 101b correspondence constitute the opposing party.Again, each lead-in wire is connected with each single electrode with common electrode respectively.
Again, above-mentioned electroluminescent layer 101 not only can be by being used for coating by vaporization that general film forms etc., also can be by printing, and formation such as coating.

According to the present invention, a kind of light source of image read-out is provided, with transparent electrode layer, electroluminescent layer, the order of metal electrode layer forms rete on transparent substrate, undertaken luminous by the voltage that on above-mentioned two electrode layers, applies regulation, the light source of described image read-out is characterised in that: what will constitute above-mentioned electroluminescent layer sends R (red), G (green), the R of B (indigo plant) light, G, the configuration of B electroluminescent body of all kinds is as with the luminous power of electroluminescent body of all kinds with reading images is desired must illumination dispose accordingly.
According to the present invention, a kind of light source of image read-out is provided, on transparent substrate, form luminescent layer, luminous from the surface and the inside of this luminescent layer by applying voltage, the light source of described image read-out is characterised in that: the light source chip bonding of the above-mentioned luminescent layer of a plurality of formation is worked being used as light source.
According to the present invention, a kind of light source of image read-out is provided, it is characterized in that: the light source that a plurality of light source chip bondings get up are formed be configured in lens about, form on the diverse location of lens length direction above-mentioned about the bonding part of each light source sheet of configuration.
Use the light source of electroluminescent body as mentioned above, because particularly the position of the length direction of light source is relevant all important reasons luminosity and position as optical medium.As one in these important reasons is the resistance of electrode layer (particularly transparent electrode layer 103).Therefore, leave lead-in wire 111a and transparent electrode layer 3, or the luminosity of the electroluminescent body of the part of the distance of the tie point P of lead-in wire 111b and metal electrode layer 4 is littler than the electroluminescent body of the nearby part of tie point P.Like this when the luminosity of light source is inhomogeneous, because on original copy face 106, can not obtain uniform illumination, so the image color that transducer 108 reads is relevant with the position of original copy.
Again, when using color light source, when reading each color image isoconcentration, the luminosity that electroluminescent body of all kinds is required is different, for example the material of hole transmission layer is TPD (Tripheny-diamine, the triphenyl diamines), the material of luminescent layer is that the luminosity of all kinds of the electroluminescent body of A1q3 (8-Hydroxyquinoline Aluminum, hydrogen-oxygen quinoline AI) is G〉R〉B.Again, the luminosity of electroluminescent body of all kinds with the difference of the material of electroluminescent body difference.
Like this, luminous for electroluminescent body of all kinds is carried out with the desired luminosity of reading images, the adjustment on the electricity must be done, but therefore hardware or software will be on light source, appended, the cost of this light source is increased.
Again, as the luminosity of the light source major reason relevant with the position, we can consider that also the thickness of electroluminescent body is scattered.This is that promptly the distance between transparent electrode layer 103 and the metal electrode layer 104 is inversely proportional to because of luminosity and interelectrode distance.So,, can solve the scattered problem of luminosity by the uniform electroluminescent body of used thickness on light source., it is difficult making the uniform electroluminescent body of thickness.
Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to provide with making luminosity evenly or make the light source of the uniform electroluminescent body of illumination that is placed on the original copy face that leaves light source institute set a distance.
In the application's invention, with the light source that uses the electroluminescent body, in order to make the illumination that is placed on the original copy face that leaves light source institute set a distance even, as Fig. 2 (a), shown in Fig. 3 (a), far make the width increase of electroluminescent body along with the distance change of the tie point P that leaves lead-in wire and transparent electrode layer or metal electrode layer.Again, as making light source send other formation of uniform brightness, can be the thickness attenuation that simultaneously far makes electroluminescent layer along with the distance change of leaving tie point P, a plurality of places of one side on light source be provided with tie point P, the formation of lamination lead-in wire on the neighboring of transparent electrode layer.
Again, when using color light source, when reading each color image isoconcentration, with R (red), G (green), the desired area that must illumination correspondingly increases and decreases the electroluminescent layer of 3 looks of the luminous power of the electroluminescent layer of all kinds of B (indigo plant) light and reading images.
The increase and decrease of this area is that luminous power by 3 colour field electroluminescent layer of the band shape identical with length direction length and the width of must illumination correspondingly adjusting each electroluminescent layer of 3 looks carry out.For example, have shown in Figure 12 (a), the short direction in edge disposes side by side carries out adjusted 3 colour field electroluminescent layer to the length of width, and as shown in figure 13, disposes the method for the short direction length of light source being carried out adjusted 3 colour field photoluminescence bodies repeatedly side by side along length direction.Further, by not only increasing and decreasing the area of 3 colour field photoluminescence bodies, and adjust the configuration of each electroluminescent body, also can make the illumination on the original copy face reach the necessary illumination of reading images.
By the light source chip bonding shown in Figure 14 (a) is got up to make the light source with certain certain above length, can reduce manufacturing cost again.
Because for encapsulation process lamination electroluminescent layer not on the end face of the light source sheet shown in Figure 14 (a),, the luminosity of the light source that is got up to constitute by the light source chip bonding diminishes significantly so being distributed in the bonding part.Therefore, broaden by the width that makes near the electroluminescent layer light source chip bonding part, the thickness attenuation compensates light source chip bonding luminosity partly.

Embodiment
As Fig. 1, shown in Fig. 2 (a), go up lamination transparent electrode layer 3 along the scanning direction at long transparent substrate 2 (for example also can be the substrate of glass substrate and film like), lamination is as the electroluminescent layer 1 of optical medium on transparent electrode layer 3, further on electroluminescent layer 1 formation of lamination metal electrode layer 4 with existing identical.Further, the 10a that will go between, 10b and transparent electrode layer 3, the tie point P of metal electrode layer 4 are arranged on the formation of an end of length direction of above-mentioned transparent electrode layer 3 and metal electrode layer 4 also with existing identical.
The width of electroluminescent layer 1 of the present invention is shown in Fig. 2 (a), along with the distance of leaving above-mentioned tie point P increases and broadens.That is, the resistance (the particularly resistance of transparent electrode layer 3) that increases electrode along with the distance of leaving tie point P becomes big, when making the constant width of electroluminescent layer 1 along with the distance of leaving above-mentioned tie point P increases, brightness diminish (interelectrode electric field strength diminishes).Therefore, in order to make the illumination on the original copy face even, can adopt above-mentioned formation.
For example above-mentioned transparent electrode layer 3 is ITO (the Indium Tin Oxide of 0.15 μ m by thickness, indium tin oxide) electrode forms, above-mentioned again electroluminescent layer 1 is formed by TPD layer (thickness is 0.05 μ m) and the Alq3 layer as luminescent layer (thickness is 0.05 μ m) of lamination on this TPD layer as hole transmission layer, further, above-mentioned metal electrode layer 4 is that the Al-Li alloy of 0.15 μ m forms by thickness.
In this formation, tie point P is arranged on the end of length direction of above-mentioned transparent electrode layer 3 and metal electrode layer 4, length at the length direction (scanning direction) of above-mentioned electroluminescent layer 1 is in the situation of 160mm, making the narrow direction width of this electroluminescent layer 1 is 2mm, when the cross direction width is 6mm, be placed on the location independent of the length direction of the illumination of original copy face on the position of leaving 2 set a distances of above-mentioned transparent substrate and light source 5.
As the formation of light source 5 of the present invention, shown in Fig. 3 (a), also can adopt 2 transparent electrode layers 3 of lamination on above-mentioned transparent substrate 2, electroluminescent layer 1, the formation of metal electrode layer 4 again.For example, when tie point P being arranged on 2 transparent electrode layers 3, in the time of on end one side of the length direction of the transparent substrate 2 of metal electrode layer 4, shown in Fig. 3 (a), along with the length direction middle body near transparent substrate 2,2 electroluminescent layers 1 have width along with the shape of widening.Therefore, be placed on the location independent of the length direction of the illumination of original copy face on the position of leaving 2 set a distances of above-mentioned transparent substrate and light source 5.
In this formation, when above-mentioned tie point P is arranged on 2 transparent electrode layers 3, the end of the length direction of the transparent substrate 2 on the metal electrode layer 4, when making the length of the length direction of 2 above-mentioned electroluminescent layers 1 be 80mm, the width of the above-mentioned electroluminescent layer 1 by making narrow side is 2mm, wide side's (middle body of transparent substrate 2) width is 4mm, can make the location independent of the length direction of the illumination that is placed on the locational original copy face that leaves 2 set a distances of above-mentioned transparent substrate and light source 5.
Further,, also can consider, shown in Fig. 4 (a), along with the distance of leaving above-mentioned tie point P increases the formation of above-mentioned electroluminescent layer 1 attenuation as the formation that prevents that above-mentioned luminosity from descending.Promptly, because with leave above-mentioned tie point P apart from the respective electric field intensity decreases, so corresponding with the decline of this electric field strength when making the thickness attenuation, can keep the electric field strength that is added between transparent electrode layer 3 and the metal electrode layer 4 even, thereby can prevent that luminosity from descending.
In the formation shown in Fig. 4 (a), for example transparent electrode layer 3 is that the ITO electrode of 0.15 μ m forms by thickness, electroluminescent layer 1 is 0.3 μ m by thick side's thickness, and the thickness of thin side is that the electroluminescent body of 0.1 μ m forms, and metal electrode layer 4 is that the Al-Li alloy of 0.15 μ m forms by thickness.
In this formation, tie point P is arranged on transparent electrode layer 3, an end of the length direction of metal electrode layer 4 when the length of the length direction of above-mentioned electroluminescent layer 1 is 160mm, can access the light source of the location independent of luminosity and length direction.
Again, shown in Fig. 5 (a), when 2 transparent electrode layers 3 of lamination on transparent substrate 2, electroluminescent layer 1 and metal electrode layer 4, above-mentioned tie point P is arranged on each transparent electrode layer 3, during end one side of the length direction of the transparent substrate 2 on the metal electrode layer 4, the thickness of 2 electroluminescent layers 1 is along with the attenuation near the length direction middle body of transparent substrate 2.
In this formation, when the length of the length direction of above-mentioned electroluminescent layer 1 is 160mm, be 0.2 μ m by the thickness that makes thick side, the thickness of thin side is 0.1 μ m, can access the light source of the range-independence of luminosity and length direction.
Again, Fig. 4 (a), the thickness of hole transmission layer of the electroluminescent layer 1 shown in Fig. 5 (a) (TPD layer) and luminescent layer (Alq3 layer) all has identical thickness in which part.
Fig. 6 (a) is the plane graph of expression an alternative embodiment of the invention.Formation shown in Fig. 6 (a) is not only tie point P to be arranged on transparent electrode layer 3 as mentioned above like that, the end of the length direction of metal electrode layer 4, and the formation of a plurality of tie point P is set.Even if therefore do not adjust the thickness and the width of electroluminescent layer 1 as mentioned above, also can access the light source of the location independent of luminosity and length direction.
Further, also can consider Fig. 7 (a), (b) formation shown in from this viewpoint.A plurality of transparent electrode layers 3 of lamination length direction 3mm on transparent substrate 2 * weak point direction 2.5mm, lamination lead-in wire 10a on all outer peripheral portions of each transparent electrode layer 3.Further, also can consider to gather the dielectric film 12 of acid imide etc. on the side upper strata of electroluminescent layer 1 of this lead-in wire of lamination 10a, lamination electroluminescent layer 1 on transparent electrode layer 3 and dielectric film 12, further on this electroluminescent layer 1 lamination for the formation of the common metal electrode layer 4 of whole electroluminescent layers 1 of this lamination.
In this formation because lead-in wire 10a all is connected with the outer peripheral portion of transparent electrode layer 3, so with the constituent ratio of Fig. 2 (a)~Fig. 6 (a), can reduce the decline of the electric field strength that causes owing to transparent electrode layer 3 significantly.Again, between lead-in wire 10a and the electroluminescent layer 1 insulation be because, even if the electroluminescent layer 1 of the upper section of the lead-in wire 10a on Fig. 7 (a) is luminous, the light that sends from this part since lead-in wire 10a can not go to outsidely to come and do not have electric current to flow from transparent substrate 2 at the upper section of lead-in wire 10a.
In the formation shown in Fig. 7 (a), for example transparent electrode layer 3 is that the ITO electrode of 0.15 μ m forms by thickness, electroluminescent layer 1 is formed by TPD layer (thickness is 0.05 μ m) and the Alq3 layer as luminescent layer (thickness is 0.05 μ m) of lamination on this hole transmission layer as hole transmission layer, and metal electrode layer 4 is that the Al-Li alloy of 0.15 μ m forms by thickness.Length at the length direction of above-mentioned electroluminescent layer 1 is in the situation of 160mm, and the luminosity of electroluminescent layer 1 distributes and forms shown in Fig. 8 (a) outer peripheral portion height at electroluminescent layer 1 at the low state of middle body.
Again, the luminosity when above-mentioned as shown in Figure 9 transparent electrode layer 3 is connected by 1 tie point P with lead-in wire 10a distributes high more near tie point P more shown in Fig. 8 (b), along with the distance of leaving tie point P increases and reduces.
Fig. 8 (a), (b) the B zone shown in, C zone, the D zone, E zone, F zone, electroluminescent body in the G zone, with the luminosity of the electroluminescent body of place A relatively, low 0%~-0.5% ,-0.5%~-1.0%,-1.0%~-2.0%,-2.0%~-4.0% ,-4.0%~-7.0% ,-7.0%~-10%.So, as Fig. 8 (a), (b) shown in, when lamination lead-in wire 10a on the outer peripheral portion of transparent electrode layer 3 is all, the scattered amplitude of the luminosity of electroluminescent layer 1 is reduced.
In superincumbent the stating, we have stated the situation that all goes up lamination lead-in wire 10a as the outer peripheral portion of Fig. 7 (a) transparent electrode layer that is shown in 3, but also lamination lead-in wire 10a on the part of outer peripheral portion as shown in figure 10.The distribution of the luminosity of electroluminescent layer 1 at this moment is shown in Fig. 8 (c).
Again, with sending R (red), G (green), the electroluminescent layer 1r of all kinds of B (indigo plant) light, 1g, 1b make 3 colour field electroluminescent layer 1r during as optical medium, 1g, and the short direction of 1b and transparent substrate 2 disposes the ground lamination side by side on transparent electrode layer 3. Use electroluminescent layer 1r, 1g, the 1b formation during as the optical medium of the light source shown in Fig. 2 (a)~Fig. 6 (a) is shown in Fig. 2~Fig. 6 each (b).Again, using electroluminescent layer 1r, 1g in the formation of 1b, becomes the shape and the lead-in wire 10a of electroluminescent layer 1 recited above by making this formation, 10b and transparent electrode layer 3, the connection status of metal electrode layer 4 and above-mentioned identical formation can compensate electroluminescent layer 1r of all kinds, 1g, the decline of the luminosity of 1b maybe can make the illumination that is placed on the original copy face that leaves this light source institute set a distance even.
In addition, electroluminescent layer 1r, 1g, the configuration of 1b also can not be the configuration shown in Fig. 2 (b)~Fig. 6 (b).Again, in the formation shown in Fig. 7 (a), when with above-mentioned 3 colour field electroluminescent layer 1r, 1g is during 1b, for example as shown in figure 11, more than 3 lamination of transparent electrode layer of length direction 2.5mm, short direction 1mm on the length direction of transparency carrier 2, on these a plurality of transparent electrode layers 3, so, on the transparent electrode layer 3 of multilayer, in order on the length direction of transparent substrate 2, alternatively to dispose electroluminescent layer 1r of all kinds, 1g, 1b lamination on the length direction of transparent substrate 2 electroluminescent layer 1r of all kinds, 1g, 1b.
(example 2)
Color light source 5 with the electroluminescent body has for example as Figure 12 (a), (b) lamination transparent electrode layer 3 on institute's transparent substrate that is shown in 2, lamination electroluminescent layer 1r on transparent electrode layer 3,1g, 1b, the further formation of long-pending metal electrode layer 4 on the electroluminescent layer upper strata.Again, electrode is with transparent electrode layer 3, and in the metal electrode layer 4 either party be as electroluminescent layer 1r, 1g, the common electrode of 1b, and with the opposing party as by each electroluminescent layer 1r, 1g, the single electrode that each electrode of 1b constitutes.Again, lead-in wire 11,11r, 11g, 11b is connected with single electrode with common electrode.Again, in this example, with transparent electrode layer 3 as single electrode, with metal electrode layer 4 as common electrode.
Here, above-mentioned electroluminescent layer 1r, 1g, 1b, shown in Figure 12 (a), lacking direction lamination side by side, but according to electroluminescent layer 1r of all kinds, 1g, illumination decision electroluminescent layer 1r on the luminous power of 1b (for example luminosity) and the necessary original copy face of reading images, 1g, the width of 1b.
For example, the illumination on the necessary original copy face of reading images is R:900cd/m 2, G:2000cd/m 2, B:500cd/m 2Image read-out in, be R:400cd/m with luminosity 2, G:2000cd/m 2, B:400cd/m 2Electroluminescent layer 1r, 1g, during 1b, in theory, electroluminescent layer 1r of all kinds, 1g, the ratio of the width of 1b (light-emitting area) is preferably 1r:1g:1b=2.25:1:1.25.
But, because because all important reasons width of light source and the disproportionate relation of locational illumination of leaving this light source institute set a distance, so electroluminescent layer 1r, 1g, the ratio of the width of 1b is 1r:1g:1b=2.8:1:1.5.
For example, when being 0.1 μ m with thickness, the length of length direction is the R of 160mm, and G, B electroluminescent layer 1r of all kinds, 1g, 1b be during as the light source of image read-out, R, and G, B electroluminescent layer 1r of all kinds, 1g, the width of 1b are R=2.8mm:G=1.0mm:B=1.5mm.
In the formation of Figure 12 (a) shown in (b), banded electroluminescent layer 1r of all kinds, 1g, 1b short direction side by side lamination on transparent electrode layer 3, but also can be as shown in figure 13 with a plurality of on the length direction of transparent substrate 2 the identical electroluminescent layer 1r of all kinds of length, 1g, the 1b lamination is on the length direction of transparent substrate 2.
For example, the illumination on the necessary original copy face of reading images is R:900cd/m 2, G:2000cd/m 2, B:500cd/m 2The light source of image read-out in, during with as shown in figure 13 light source, the luminosity of the electroluminescent layer of all kinds 1 of this light source is R:400cd/m 2, G:2000cd/m 2, B:400cd/m 2The time, above-mentioned each electroluminescent layer 1r, 1g, the short direction length ratio of the transparent substrate 2 of 1b is 1r:1g:1b=2.8:1:1.5.
In formation shown in Figure 13, for example, make each electroluminescent layer 1r, 1g, 1b is 0.3mm in the length of the length direction of transparent substrate 2, thickness is 0.1 μ m, at short direction 1r=2.8mm:1g=1.0mm:1b=1.5mm, these electroluminescent layer 1r of all kinds, 1g, 1b is in the alternatively assortment of length direction of transparent substrate 2, and the total length that makes electroluminescent layer 1 is 160mm.
As above like that, carry out R, G, B electroluminescent layer 1r of all kinds, 1g, the adjustment of the light-emitting area of 1b can obtain the necessary R of reading images on the original copy face, G, B illumination of all kinds.
Again, because electroluminescent layer 1r of all kinds, 1g, the luminosity of 1b is relevant with the material of electroluminescent layer 1 to be different, above-mentioned electroluminescent layer 1r, 1g, the ratio of the width of 1b (light-emitting area) is relevant with material to be different.
(example 3)
Making the above electroluminescent body of the uniform certain-length of thickness is difficult technically.Therefore, with Figure 14 (a), (b) the light source sheet 50 shown in is joined together and makes the light source 5 of electroluminescent body as the length of optical medium.
As Figure 14 (a), (b) shown in, above-mentioned light source sheet 50 α, 50 β .... have transparent substrate 52 α that are divided into a plurality of length in length, 52 β with the length direction of light source 5 .... go up lamination transparent electrode layer 3 α, 3 β ...., lamination electroluminescent layer 1 α again on them, 1 β ...., further lamination metal electrode layer 4 α again on electroluminescent layer, 4 β .... formation.
Further, lead-in wire 10a and this light source sheet 50 α, 50 β .... transparent electrode layer 3 α, 3 β .... connect lead-in wire 10b and metal electrode layer 4 α, 4 β .... connection.
, because the electroluminescent body of above-mentioned use is subjected to the influence of humidity easily, invade light source sheet 50 α, 50 β in order to prevent wet steam .... in, and prevent that further the electroluminescent body is subjected to physical damnification and need carries out encapsulation process.Promptly make light source sheet 50 α as follows, 50 β .....
As shown in figure 15, at first except encapsulation process part 7 α of end face 0.3~05mm of leaving transparent substrate 52 α, as mentioned above, also lamination above-mentioned transparent electrode layer 3 α, electroluminescent layer 1 α and metal electrode layer 4 α.Secondly on 7 α of sealing processing section, be coated with the fusible resin 8 that has of the epoxy resin that is applied to encapsulation process etc.At last, lining seal glass 9 α on metal electrode layer 4 α and epoxy resin 8.
By in turn end face 56 being bonded with each other, make light source sheet 50 α that make like this, 50 β with adhesive etc... constitute a light source 5.So, by forming (for example using vaporation method) transparent electrode layer 3 α in uniform film thickness ground, 3 β ...., metal electrode layer 4 α, 4 β .... or electroluminescent layer 1 α, 1 β .... limit in constitute each light source sheet 50 α, 50 β .... the length (about 80mm) of length direction, just can with the length of light source 5 irrespectively, making to be placed on the original copy face that leaves this light source institute set a distance has uniform illumination.
(example 4)
, constitute light source sheet 50 α of Figure 14 (a), 50 β .... electroluminescent layer 1 α, 1 β .... shape be rectangle, each light source sheet 50 α, 50 β .... bonding part and light source sheet 50 α, 50 β .... short direction parallel.So, when engaging light source sheet 50 α, 50 β .... the time because above-mentioned encapsulation process part 7 α, 7 β .... what make end face 56 nearby can not be luminous.Therefore, in this wise with light source sheet 50 α, 50 β .... the Luminance Distribution of articulate light source 5 is at encapsulation process part 7 α, 7 β .... partial geometry is zero.Therefore, in this example, be to constitute by as follows compensation being implemented in the decay of this luminosity.
Figure 16 is the figure of this example of expression.Leave each light source sheet 50 α, 50 β .... the 10mm of end 56 wideer with the width of interior electroluminescent layer 1 than the width of other parts.
Therefore, by making electroluminescent layer 1 α, 1 β .... width at light source sheet 50 α, 50 β .... middle body little big in the end, can be to light source sheet 50 α, 50 β .... near the decay of the luminosity the articulate end face 56 compensates.
(example 5)
Figure 17 is the pie graph of expression another other example of the present invention.In example, because the shape of the electroluminescent layer 1 of light source sheet 50 is rectangles, so near the luminosity the end face 56 is almost nil.Therefore when making end face 56 have certain angle and constitute, can relax above-mentioned shortcoming with respect to the short direction of transparent substrate 52.Promptly as shown in figure 17, make each light source sheet 50 α, 50 β .... and electroluminescent layer 1 α, 1 β .... be shaped as parallelogram.For example, when with light source sheet 50 α, light source sheet 50 α and light source sheet 50 β formed overlapping formation in short direction when 50 β were joined together.Since above-mentioned electroluminescent layer 1 α of this formation, encapsulation process part 7 α of 1 β, and 7 β form along the distribution of length direction expansion, can prevent that sealing processing section 7 from concentrating on specific part.
Again, because light source sheet 50 α with this parallelogram, 50 β .... the luminosity of articulate light source 5 and length direction are irrelevant, so wish the overlapping length Q of electroluminescent layer 1 β of electroluminescent layer 1 α of light source sheet 50 α and light source sheet 50 β at electroluminescent layer 1 α, more than 5 times of I of the distance between 1 β (length of shortcoming part 40).Again, wish electroluminescent layer 1 α, the width W of 1 β is at below 1.7 times of overlapping length Q.
Also can make light source sheet 50 have the roughly formation of L word shape as illustrated in fig. 18 again.When this formation, the width of the light source on the overlapping lap J of electroluminescent layer 1 α that makes at light source sheet 50 α and electroluminescent layer 1 β of light source sheet 50 β is also wide than other parts.By strengthening the width of light source 5, can make the width of the electroluminescent layer 1 of lap J become big.
In formation shown in Figure 180, in order to obtain the irrelevant light source of luminosity and length direction, the length M of length direction of wishing the light source 5 that electroluminescent layer 1 α and electroluminescent layer 1 β are overlapping between electroluminescent layer 1 α and 1 β apart from more than 5 times of K.
Further, for the decline of the luminosity that alleviates the bonding part, wish to have, for example, as shown in figure 18, make at light source sheet 50 α, 50 β .... the bonding part on the shortcoming part 40 of the electroluminescent layer 1 that forms eccentric formation takes place from the center of the short direction of light source 5.When shortcoming part 40 takes place to wish to make at light source sheet 50 α, 50 β when eccentric .... the width S of the protuberance that forms of an end in more than 1/3rd of width W of electroluminescent layer 1.
(example 6)
Light source sheet 50 α, 50 β .... luminosity also along with electroluminescent layer 1 α, 1 β .... electric field strength change.That is, on the identical basis of interelectrode current potential, when the thickness attenuation of electroluminescent layer 1, it is big that electric field strength becomes, electroluminescent layer 1 α, 1 β .... luminosity improve.So, as shown in figure 19,, then can reach purpose of the present invention if thin with the thickness of the Film Thickness Ratio middle body of interior electroluminescent layer 1 at for example 10mm that leaves above-mentioned end face 56.
(example 7)
Again, in order to compensate the luminosity of bonding part, as shown in figure 20, also can be by constituting electroluminescent layer 1 as the end luminescent layer 12 and the central luminescent layer 11 of material with the electroluminescent body.
For example, in the 5mm of the encapsulation process part 7 of leaving transparent substrate 52, the transparent electrode layer 32 of the above-mentioned end of lamination luminescent layer 12, lamination end luminescent layer 12 on transparent electrode layer 32, the further metal electrode layer 42 of lamination end luminescent layer 12 on end luminescent layer 12.Again, inboard from above-mentioned end luminescent layer 12 to transparent substrate 52, the transparent electrode layer 31 of the above-mentioned middle body luminescent layer 11 of lamination, lamination middle body luminescent layer 11 on transparent electrode layer 31, the further metal electrode layer 41 of lamination middle body luminescent layer 11 on middle body luminescent layer 11.Again, above-mentioned transparent electrode layer 31,32 is connected with lead-in wire 10a, and above-mentioned metal electrode layer 41,42 is connected with lead-in wire 10b.
Here, in order to obtain certain luminosity in the bonding part, by lead-in wire 10a, 10b is adding between the transparent electrode layer 32 of end luminescent layer 12 and the metal electrode layer 42 than big voltage between the transparent electrode layer 31 of middle body luminescent layer 11 and metal electrode layer 42 to the luminous emission control device H that controls of above-mentioned middle body luminescent layer 11 and end luminescent layer 12.Therefore, even if make the luminosity grow of end luminescent layer 12, this light source sheet 50 is joined together formation light source 5, the luminosity of light source 5 is also irrelevant with length direction.
Further, for the thickness that obtains along length direction brightness luminous light source 5 equably, also can form making end luminescent layer 12 formation thinner than middle body luminescent layer 11.
(example 8)
When with the light source 5a of above-mentioned such light source that constitutes 5 as the image read-out that the following describes, during 5b, usually, sequentially light R, G, B reads view data of all kinds, and the chromatic number that reads the most at last is according to combining.As special using method, also have by lighting specific color and implement to read processing, the image that does not carry out this particular color reads in such using method.At this moment particular color also can be above-mentioned R, G, and any color among the B perhaps also can be with R, G, the B color that combines of all kinds.
When with above such light source that constitutes 5 during as the light source of the image read-out of photocopier etc., for example as shown in figure 21, the original copy that light source 5 left and right symmetricallies are configured in image read-out reads the oblique upper of position Pa.In addition, the described optical fiber lens 14 in back is configured in the top of the vertical direction that reads position Pa.
In this formation, because the light source 5a relevant with the invention of present patent application, 5b is that face is luminous, thus even if make light source near reading position Pa, read on the Pa of position illumination also with light source 5a, the length direction of 5b is irrelevant.By making above-mentioned light source 5a, 5b is approaching to read position Pa, can reach to make by this light source 5a the purpose of light supply apparatus 15 miniaturizations that 5b and optical fiber lens 14 constitute.By making light supply apparatus 15 miniaturizations, image read-out is all diminished again.
Therefore, at the light source 5a that led array 112 (Figure 21) is used for light supply apparatus 15, in the situation of 5b, when the middle body O of LED element 125 and the distance that reads position Pa when 7mm is following, reading position Pa, can not obtain uniform illumination., when with light source 5 of the present invention, even if middle body O and the distance that reads position Pa near 1mm, also can obtain uniform illumination by experimental verification.
Again, in formation shown in Figure 21, link light source 5a, the middle body O of each electroluminescent layer 1 of 5b is more little with the angle θ of line L that reads position Pa and 6 formation of original copy face, the illumination that reads on the Pa of position is just low more, and angle θ is big more, and the ratio that incides hot spot light in the light of optical fiber lens 14 is just many more, and it is more not distinct that image becomes.
When angle θ was 40 °~55 °, than higher, the catoptrical amount that incides optical fiber lens 14 was fewer in the illumination that reads position Pa.Therefore dispose light source 5a like that by making angle θ be 40 °~55 °, 5b is worth than higher at the illumination and the MTF (modulation Transfer function, modulation transfer function) that read on the Pa of position.Again, mtf value is called the resolution of transducer.
Therefore, color light source as light source 5a, during 5b, is preferably made to link each electroluminescent layer 1r, 1g, the angle θ of the middle body O of 1b and straight line L that reads position Pa and 6 formation of original copy face is 40 °~55 ° and disposes light source 5 like that.
Again, the special preferably relation of the illumination from the essential original copy face of luminosity and reading images as described above, make binding need the electroluminescent layer 1 of the color of maximum light-emitting area, in said circumstances, dispose light source 5 like that for the angle θ of the central point O of red electroluminescent layer 1r and the straight line L that reads position Pa and 6 formation of original copy face is 40 °~55 °.
Again, the straight line L that links the middle body O of electroluminescent layer 1r and read position Pa and the angle θ of original copy face 6 formation are 40 °~55 ° when being configured like that, hope is with the middle body of electroluminescent layer 1r lamination at transparent substrate 2, and on the short direction of electroluminescent layer 1r with this electroluminescent layer 1r in abutting connection with lamination electroluminescent layer 1g like that, 1b.
Again, the amount that reverberation incides on the optical fiber lens 14 is not only relevant with angle θ, and relevant with the material of original copy.
(example 9)
To light source shown in Figure 20 5, on the bonding part of light source sheet 50, form shortcoming part 40 at Figure 14.As the light source 5a that Figure 14 is used as light supply apparatus 15 to light source shown in Figure 20 5, during 5b, shown in Figure 22 (a), make light source 5a, the shortcoming part 40a of 5b, 40b for example makes light source 5a remove certain distance for light source 5b on the length direction of optical fiber lens 14 and is configured like that not on the length direction same position for optical fiber lens 14.At this moment, as light source 5a, the total length of 5b is 320mm, light source 5a, and the shortcoming part 40a of 5b when the length of 40b is 1mm, preferably makes shortcoming part 40a, and 40b separates more than the 2mm on the length direction of optical fiber lens 14.
By being configured in this wise,, make shortcoming part 40a with shown in Figure 23 (a), 40b disposes light source 5a like that on the same position of the length direction of optical fiber lens 14, the situation of 5b relatively makes owing to be short of part 40a, and 40b is reading the slippage minimum of the illumination that causes on the Pa of position.
Figure 22 (b), Figure 23 (b) expression is when as Figure 22 (a), when disposing light source shown in Figure 23 (a) in the Illumination Distribution that reads on the Pa of position.
Again, be configured in the locational formation that the length direction for optical fiber lens 14 separates as being short of part 40a and shortcoming part 40b, except the above-mentioned light source 5a that makes like that, outside the configuration that 5b removes, also has the formation of the light source sheet 50 at the both ends that will be used as light source 5a or light source 5b than the light source sheets 50 that other light source sheet 50 is lacked.
(example 10)
In the formation of Figure 21, remain in the dark state in the depth of focus optical fiber lens 14, in order to make this optical fiber lens 14 near reading position Pa, need make the diameter of the optical fiber that constitutes this optical fiber lens 14 littler, or make original copy face 6 shown in Figure 21 and the distance between the transducer 8 (conjugation is long) T lengthening than the diameter of existing rod.In existing rod-shaped lens, because reduced is limited, so by increasing the long T of conjugation, the depth of focus is remained in the dark state, but when doing like this, when increasing the long T of conjugation, just run counter to the purpose that will reach the image read-out thin smallization.
Therefore, as shown in figure 24, this optical fiber lens 14 is by with thin diameter, and promptly the following optical fiber 140 integrated bundles of 0.5mm constitute.Thereby, the focal length of this optical fiber lens 14 is shortened and the depth of focus is deepened, can suppress whole optical path length, reach the purpose of the thin smallization that makes image read-out, but on the contrary, phenomenons such as intermodulation effect and hot spot have become significantly.Therefore, as shown in figure 25, on the periphery of each monomer of the optical fiber 140 of institute's measured length, form light absorbing zone 143, or as above-mentioned shown in Figure 24, with optical fiber 140 integrated a plurality of bundles of institute's measured length, on the periphery of each bundle, form light absorbing zone 141, constitute fiber bundle 144.
Here, in order to prevent phenomenons such as above-mentioned intermodulation effect and hot spot, above-mentioned fiber bundle 144 will satisfy following relationship.Promptly, as shown in figure 26, satisfy value that fiber bundle 144 length (external diameter) Y on one side obtains divided by the length N of optical fiber 140 like that than the little relation of the tangent value of angular aperture ω that is the central shaft Z of this optical fiber 140 and the angle between the incident light V, set this external diameter Y and this length N, and this angular aperture ω.
With the monomer of the optical fiber 140 of a plurality of such formation light absorbing zones 143 or the fiber bundle 144 of a plurality of formation light absorbing zones 141, the length direction that makes this optical fiber 140 towards about, in diametric(al) filling side by side enters the shaping frame of the open up and down shape that formalizes, after being cured with the gap of each optical fiber 140 of adhesive filling, shed framework.The shape that formalizes of above-mentioned shaping frame is to bring into play the required shape of its original function for the image read-out of the photocopier that uses this optical fiber lens 14 etc., forms and the rectangular long ribbon shape of original copy direction of transfer usually.Further, as shown in figure 27, if need on being shaped, also above-mentioned optical fiber 140 monomers or fiber bundle 144 can be put into above-mentioned shaping frame, substrate 142 with dense glass or resin etc. is clamped, and with said method this substrate 142 and above-mentioned optical fiber 140 monomers being glued together mutually maybe is glued together this substrate 142 and fiber bundle 144 mutually.
Again, also have optical fiber 140 monomers of a plurality of formation light absorbing zones 143 or the fiber bundle 144 of a plurality of formation light absorbing zones 141, for example along the length direction of this optical fiber 140 diametric(al) side by side compact configuration get up, with adhesive filling gap, clamp the method (not drawing among the figure) that above-mentioned adhesive is solidified by thermo-compressed simultaneously with the substrate 142 of 2 dense glass of formalizing shape or resin etc.
The refractive index of above-mentioned optical fiber 140 is diminishing to periphery gradually with the rectangular direction of axle, even if there is not above-mentioned light absorbing zone 141143, the principle glazing also can be assembled to center position, but as a realistic problem, when variation in diameter, phenomenons such as above-mentioned intermodulation effect and hot spot have become significantly, need to form above-mentioned light absorbing zone 141143.
Again, above-mentioned light absorbing zone 141143 can enough coatings, dipping or the resin formation of evaporating black.Again, be used at the adhesive that optical fiber 140 monomers or fiber bundle 144 fillings is entered the state in the above-mentioned shaping frame, it also can be existing so far adhesive, but the adhesive of the most handy black that can prevent phenomenons generations such as above-mentioned intermodulation effect and hot spot etc., these adhesives form above-mentioned light absorbing zone 141.Here, when the adhesive double as light absorbing zone of above-mentioned black etc., on the periphery of above-mentioned optical fiber 140 monomers or fiber bundle 144, form this adhesive, can be with the method for the shaping frame of the open up and down shape that formalizes of use same as described above, or clamp with 2 substrates 142, carry out the method etc. of thermo-compressed and make above-mentioned optical fiber lens 14.Certainly, in this manufacturing, the adhesive of above-mentioned black etc. is to form on whole peripheries of optical fiber 140 monomers or fiber bundle 144.As above-mentioned adhesive, for example can use low glass of softening point or resin etc., but this softening point must be lower than the material softening point of optical fiber 140 that constitutes above-mentioned optical fiber lens 14 and substrate 142 etc.
Again here, as the diameter of the optical fiber 140 that above-mentioned optical fiber lens 14 is had 1/6 about 0.1mm for existing rod-shaped lens diameter, when the length of this optical fiber 140 is 1/6 about 4.0mm of this rod-shaped lens length, reading device 120a120b shown in Figure 28, the thickness on the vertical direction on original copy 9 surfaces become 1/6 about 10mm of the image read-out of existing sealing means.
Figure 28 is the figure that expression is applicable to the application's inventive images reading device, at this moment forms the formation that can read two faces in the inside, surface.Certain this image read-out both can be used for facsimile machine, also can be used for photocopier.
With existing identical, send into horizontal transmission path 133 by sending into cylinder 152a152b up and down with the original copy 9 in pickup roller 151 introducing devices that constitute manuscript handling device 162.Be provided with on this transfer path 133 from sending into the belt pulley 164 that transmits rearward original copy after cylinder 152a152b accepts original copy 9 up and down, when the front end of original copy 9 is come institute's allocation, making belt pulley 164 work and it is controlled.
2 reading device 120a120b about the configuration are reading the two sides that position PaPb reads this original copy 9 simultaneously up and down when transmitting original copy 9 near the front end in above-mentioned horizontal transmission path 133.
Here, downside reading device 120b is used to read the original copy from original copy face 136 projectioies, for example is in the book of the state of opening, and needs the dark depth of focus.Therefore, be used for downside reading device 120b, can all design reading device quite thin by light source 5 with optical fiber lens shown in Figure 24 14 and the present application.Certainly, be used for the up and down reading device 120a120b of both sides, can reach and make the further purpose of thinness of image read-out by light source 5 with optical fiber lens shown in Figure 24 14 and the present application.
As mentioned above, in the situation of the image that reads original copy 9 two sides, when from the irradiates light of each light source of the reading device 120a120b of both sides up and down, during the up and down same position of irradiation, irradiates light takes place to interfere mutually.Therefore, in the irradiates light from each light source of this reading device 120a120b does not shine the limit of same position up and down, each configuration of above-mentioned reading device 120a120b is separated from each other, prevents above-mentioned interference.
Again, above-mentioned reading device 120a120b has the characteristic that reads that expression gives the γ value (concentration is to sensor output value) that respectively reads informational influence that obtained by the image that reads original copy 9 two sides and gradating properties etc.Here, the print image quality with the image on the two sides of paper etc. that we wish to be printed on that above-mentioned photocopier has is identical, and the information that for this reason needs the information that reads from the reading device 120a of upside and reading device 120b from downside to read is identical.Therefore, above-mentioned photocopier has to have and reads means for correcting 132, proofreaies and correct and makes their identical formations by the characteristic that respectively reads to above-mentioned reading device 120a120b.
For example, Figure 29 expresses the catoptrical light quantity from original copy 9 (the light beam total amount of being fixed time) and the output of sensor device and the relation of γ value in above-mentioned γ value, generally is γ〉1, γ=1, or the curve of γ<1.Here, when the output of any light value a transducer increases, becoming γ with above-mentioned 132 pairs of the means for correctings that read〉1 such γ value proofreaies and correct.Similarly, by making and become γ=1, or the correction of γ<1, adjust above-mentioned light quantity and sensor output value with the above-mentioned means for correcting 132 that reads, make both sides up and down reading device 120a120b to read information identical.
In addition, in the reading device 120a120b of the both sides up and down that above-mentioned photocopier has, both can be with the reading device 120a of fixed upper, the mode of the reading device 120b of mobile downside, also can with for example with the existing identical move mode of optical mode (dwindling the CCD mode) that dwindles.
At this moment image reads work, at first by above-mentioned pickup roller 151 with send into the original copy 9 that cylinder 152a152b will insert above-mentioned manuscript handling device 162 and be sent to above-mentioned translator unit 133.Therefore, one side reads original copy 9 by said fixing formula reading device 120a, one side is sent original copy 9 into horizontal transmission path 133, but disposing by what glass constituted at the downside of transfer path 133 and to read platform (not drawing among the figure), read in the state on the platform original copy 9 being positioned in this, in case it is belt pulley 164 stops, mobile as the above-mentioned fluorescent lamp (promptly reading position Pb) of light source.Then, finish, further make above-mentioned belt pulley 164 work, original copy 9 is sent out by reading that above-mentioned reading device 120b carries out.
Like this, by the reading device 120b of downside is dwindled the movable type of optical mode (dwindling the CCD mode) as usefulness, with have and can original copy 9 be positioned in the same formation of existing photocopier on the above-mentioned glass document board from top, also can deal with and read the original copy of the books that can not send into by manuscript handling device 162 etc.
Certainly, also can fluorescent lamp be fixed on institute's allocation, deal with and read constituting of the original copy 9 that transmits by belt pulley 164 just like the reading device 120b that does not move with the downside that dwindle optical mode (dwindling the CCD mode) as described above.
Recited above is that the image read-out that will utilize light source of the present invention is applied to the situation of photocopier, but equally also can be applied to other, facsimile machine and image read-out, or multi-function printer etc.
