Abstract

PURPOSE:To facilitate an easy control of an image sensor and to miniaturize an original reader, by using a hybrid substrate containing an array of plural photoelectric transducers and two adhesion type linear image sensors in which a spacer and a rod lens are unified respectively. CONSTITUTION:The light irradiated from a fluorescent lamp 42 is reflected on an original 41, and the beams passed through rod lenses 43a and 43b are made incident to the sensor parts of adhesion type linear image sensors 49a and 49b. Spacers 44a and 44b are set between lenses 43a and 43b and CCD hybrid substrates 45a and 45b respectively, and the beams are formed into images on the sensors 49a and 49b. Then the lens 43a, spacer 44a, substrate 45a as well as the lens 43b, spacer 44b and substrate 45b are unified together respectively. The sensors on the sensors 49a and 49b are arrayed zigzag, and the distances between these sensors and a back plate 48 are controlled by means of control screws 47a, 47b, 46a, 46b, etc. Thus an original reader is miniaturized.

As a photoelectric conversion element for a contact type linear image sensor, one has been developed in which a photoconductive thin film such as CdSe or CdS with the same width as the original is provided on a substrate such as glass, but the responsiveness is insufficient.

A charge storage type solid-state device such as a CCD is applicable,
Currently, however, the size of available sensors is limited. For example, the largest CCD linear image sensor has a length of about 30 mm. Therefore, in order to read an image with the same width as the original, multiple CCDI

It becomes possible to read the υ1 line completely. However, as shown in Figure 3, two optical systems are required, and in addition to simply forming an image of the original onto the photoelectric conversion element, the images formed by the two optical systems must be aligned in a straight line on the surface of the original. , the adjustment is extremely difficult.
