New Description: [New Technology Field] [0001] The present invention relates to a fingerprint image capturing device, and more particularly to a fingerprint image capturing device using a non-parallel cymbal and a wide-angle lens group. [Prior Art] [0002] A fingerprint image capturing device can be roughly classified into an optical form and a non-optical form. At present, most of the fingerprint image capturing devices are in optical form, and generally use Prism, Convex Lens, and image sensors as main components to capture fingerprints. [Image - [0003] Figure 1 A conventional fingerprint image Referring to Figure 1, the light beam from source 12 passes through the ribs. The beam is directed toward the beveled edge that is in contact with the finger 10 within the crucible 14 and is reflected by the image of the finger 10 to the other side of the U. The beam is then focused by the convex lens 163⁄4 onto the image sensor 18, and then processed by the scales to complete the fingerprint recognition. Similar to & like a device, see also European Patent EP2039292A1. If: [0004] In order to reduce the size of the fingerprint image capture device, US Patent No. 6826000B2 discloses a use of changing the shape of the file to reduce the size of the fingerprint image capture device. However, the area of the finger contact surface of the fingerprint image capturing device is too large, and in addition to the area where the finger is placed, many areas are redundant, resulting in an excessive volume of the fingerprint image capturing device. Furthermore, the light source is located on the different side of the lens and the image sensor, and the space below the total reflection surface of the prism cannot be utilized, which also causes the fingerprint image to be captured.
