JPS6437567A - Original covering device for copying machine - Google Patents

Abstract

PURPOSE:To simplify the coordinate inputting operation of an original and to input the coordinate even if the original is thick by equipping a translucent electrostatic adsorbent plate which is disposed on the upper surface side of an original cover plate and attracts and holds the original so as to freely load and unload and an untranslucent cover pivoted to an equipment main body to be turned. CONSTITUTION:A coordinate reading part 5 which is translucent is disposed on one side of the translucent original cover plate 4, which is pivoted to the equipment main body 1 to be turned, facing an original placing table 1. The translucent electrostatic adsorbent plate 6 which attracts and holds the original so as to freely load and unload is disposed on the upper surface side of the original cover plate 4, facing the coordinate reading part 5. Moreover, the untranslucent cover 7 is pivoted to the equipment main body 1 to be freely turned, facing the upper surface of the electrostatic attraction plate. Since the original M is attracted to the electrostatic attraction plate 6, thus, the input of the coordinate such as the specification of editing area, etc., can be executed even if the original is not pressed by hand. If copying actin is executed by closing the untranslucent cover 7, the input of coordinate such as the editing area, etc., of a book can be executed even in case of thick substance like a book.
