Description

Cover unit for scanner reader {COVER UNIT FOR SCANNER}

The present invention relates to a scanner, and more particularly, to a scanner having a cover designed to be used on a computer peripheral device such as a printer on the scanner.

In today's world, computers perform not only functions as calculators, but also text editors, communication terminals, entertainment devices, and the like. Computer users, in particular, install and use peripheral devices such as printers, scanners, speakers, and USB cameras on their desks.

However, if you use all the computer peripherals on a narrow desk, the desk becomes very crowded, and sometimes it is impossible to use both a printer and a scanner.

Accordingly, a first object of the present invention is to provide a method for efficiently storing computer peripheral devices installed on a desk.

A second object of the present invention is to provide a scanner cover designed to allow a printer to be placed on a scanner in addition to the first object.

Figure 1a is a view showing a preferred embodiment of the scanner lid device according to the present invention.

Figure 1b is a view showing a state of flipping open the scanner lid device according to the present invention from the scanner body.

Figures 2a and 2b is a view showing a state of use of the scanner provided with a printer on the scanner lid device according to the present invention.

<Explanation of symbols for the main parts of the drawings>

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention is a cover of a scanner reader having a scanner body and a scanner main body is installed, a transparent window for passing the light emitted by the scanner, and a cover covering a book or a document during a scanning operation In the apparatus, a plurality of hinges (first hinges) are provided at side surfaces of the cover at regular intervals, and each hinge is connected to a link and a plurality of hinges (second hinges) are provided at regular intervals on the side surface of the scanner body. A plurality of links connecting the first hinge and the second hinge in a state in which the cover is in close contact with the scanner main body and is arranged to be offset by a predetermined interval with respect to the second hinge. Are arranged in the direction from 10 o'clock to 11 o'clock on the cover side surface, and are placed on the transparent window. When the cover is lifted up, the first hinge and the second hinge are in a circular motion with the fixed axis, and the surface of the cover is parallel to the surface of the scanner body during the circular motion process. Provide a scanner cover device.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings Figures 1 and 2 will be described in detail a preferred embodiment of the present invention.

Figure 1a is a view showing a preferred embodiment of the scanner lid device according to the present invention. Referring to FIG. 1A, a scanner cover 20 is constructed on a scanner body 10 including a scanner (not shown) and other accessory parts, and a transparent window (not shown) through which light emitted by the scanner passes. .

Scanner cover 20 according to the present invention is characterized in that the circular motion around the rear axis of the scanner cover connected to the scanner body 10 as in the prior art does not operate to open and close.

That is, the scanner cover device according to the present invention is connected to each other as the scanner main body 10 and the link 22, the plurality of links 22 are a plurality of hinges are arranged at regular intervals on the side portion of the scanner cover 20 (21; referred to as 'first hinge') and a plurality of hinges 23 (called 'second hinge') arranged at regular intervals on the side portion of the scanner main body.

As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, when the scanner cover 20 is in close contact with the scanner body 10 and closed, the link 22 connecting the first hinge 21 and the second hinge 23 to each other is a scanner body. When viewed from the side of the planar to 10 o'clock to 11 o'clock direction are positioned parallel to each other.

Figure 1b is a view showing a state of flipping open the scanner lid device according to the present invention from the scanner body. Referring to FIG. 1B, the scanner lid device according to the present invention is tilted so that the surface of the scanner cover 20 is parallel to the scanner body 10, that is, in the process of opening and flipping a document or a book to be placed on a transparent window. Characterized in that it opens without.

To this end, the first hinge 21 fixed to the scanner cover and the link 22 connected to the second hinge 23 fixed to the scanner body have the first hinge 21 and the second when the cover 20 is lifted up. The hinge 23 is used as a fixed shaft to perform a circular motion, and when fully opened, the links 22 are arranged toward the 1 o'clock to 2 o'clock directions.

As described above, the scanner lid device according to the present invention performs a circular motion by leveraging the link 22 as a lever with the first hinge 21 and the second hinge 23 as a fixed shaft, thereby opening and closing the scanner cover 20. The scanner cover 20 does not tilt in the process. As a result, it is possible to place and use other computer peripherals such as printers on the scanner cover.

Figure 2a and Figure 2b is a view showing a state of use of the scanner provided with a printer on the scanner lid device according to the present invention. 2A and 2B, as a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a printer device 50 is mounted on the scanner body 10, using hinges 21, 23 and links 22 according to the present invention. Is connected.

The foregoing has outlined rather broadly the features and technical advantages of the subject innovation in order to better understand the claims of the subject matter described below. Additional features and advantages constituting the claims of the present invention will be described below. It should be recognized by those skilled in the art that the conception and specific embodiment of the present invention can be used immediately as a basis for designing or modifying other structures for carrying out similar purposes as the present invention.

In addition, the inventive concept and embodiments disclosed in the present invention may be used by those skilled in the art as a basis for modifying or designing other structures for carrying out the same purposes of the present invention. In addition, such modifications or altered equivalent structures by those skilled in the art can be variously changed, substituted and changed without departing from the spirit or scope of the invention described in the claims.

As described above, the present invention is configured by using a hinge and a link so that the scanner cover can be moved in parallel when opening and closing, thereby enabling the printer to be mounted on the upper part of the scanner, thereby eliminating the small area and complexity on the desk.
