Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a vibration-proof device for an optic source element of upper transparency adapter, and particularly to a vibration-proof device used in a scanner having an upper transparency adapter (UTA) for preventing noises caused by the optic source element of the UTA.
- FIG. 1 is a lateral view of a conventional scanner equipped with an UTA, in which the scanner mainly includes a
casing 200 having a top being installed with aglass panel 45. Achassis 60 is installed within thecasing 200. Thechassis 60 is movably coupled to aslide lever 70 disposed inside thecasing 200 for moving forwards and backwards along theslide lever 70 under theglass panel 45. An image sensing device (not shown) retained in thechassis 60 serves to scan adocument 50 disposed over theglass panel 45. The image sensing device is generally equipped with a an image detector such as CCD, CIS or CMOS (compensated metal oxide semiconductor). - As illustrated in FIG. 1, an upper transparency adapter (UTA) is formed by a
cover 100 attached to the top of thecasing 200 and anoptic source element 10 mounted in thecover 100. Theoptic source element 10 is movably coupled to aslide lever 20 disposed in thecover 100 for moving synchronously with thechassis 60, and serves as a light source as thedocument 50 positioned over theglass panel 45 is transparent, in order for the image sensing device to sense the image on thedocument 50. As shown in the drawing, theoptic source element 10 consists of asliding carriage 14 and alight source 12 associated with thesliding carriage 14 for illuminating thedocument 50. Consequently, thelight source 12 is capable of being moved alone theglass panel 40 so as to illuminate light to pass through thedocument 50 placed thereunder, while thesliding carriage 14 is driven to move along theslide rod 20. The slidingcarriage 14 is generally arranged with an AC to DC converter (not shown) and thelight source 12 has a lamp electrically coupled to the AS to DC converter and a light-reflecting plate (not shown). - FIG. 2 is a partial perspective view of a conventional upper transparency adapter, in which only a
slide rod 20 disposed at the center of thecasing 100 is illustrated. As shown in the drawing, one end of theslide rod 20 is firmly secured to asupport 26′ attached to the inner surface of thecasing 100, and the slidingcarriage 14 slidably coupled to theslide rod 20 is joined to adriving belt 25. Thedriving belt 25 is wound around apulley 23 proximate to thesupport 26′ and driven by a servo motor (not shown) allowing the slidingcarriage 14 to be driven by thedriving belt 25 to slide along theslide rod 20. - Referring to FIG. 3, the
slide rod 20 is firmly secured to thesupport 26′ withbolts 29 which securely fix thesupport 26′ to theposts 28′ protruded from the inner surface of thecasing 100. Due to the lack of manufacturing and assembling precision a gap G is usually formed between thelight source 12 and theglass panel 40. As abovementioned, thesliding carriage 14 is movably coupled to theslide rod 20 and thelight source 12 are radially outwardly extended toward the opposing sidewalls of the casing 150, so that when thedriving belt 25 drives theoptic source element 10 to slidably move along theslide rod 20, thelight source 12 tends to swing or oscillate to thereby cause thelight source 12 to irregularly come in touch with theglass panel 40. When thelight source 12 irregularly comes in touch with theglass panel 40 during the moving course, noises will generate. - Furthermore, the swing or oscillation of the
light source 12 during the scanning operation, not only generates the noise, but also adversely affects the scanning quality. - Accordingly, the present invention has been designed for overcoming the shortcomings of the aforementioned conventional upper transparency adapter. The primary objective of the present invention is to provided a vibration-proof device that prevents the optic source element disposed in an upper transparency adapter of a scanner from swing or oscillating, thus eliminating noise when the scanner is in operation.
- Another objective of the present invention is to provide a vibration-proof device that can prevent the optic source element disposed in an upper transparency adapter of a scanner from swinging or oscillating, thus assuring the scanning quality.
- In accordance with the above and other objectives, the present invention provides a vibration-proof device for an optic source disposed in an upper transparency adapter of a scanner, wherein the upper transparency adapter is secured to a casing of the scanner, to allow the scanner to scan a transparent document. The upper transparency adapter is composed of a cover attached to the top of the scanner, the optic source element mounted in the cover, a glass panel installed on the bottom of the cover and a slide rod mounted in the cover to which the optic source element is coupled, allowing the optic source element to slidably move along the slide rod proximate to the glass panel.
- The vibration-proof device of the present invention comprises a supporter for coupling the slide rod, a positioning member erected from a base of the cover toward the glass panel for retaining the supporter in place in the cover, and an elastic member interposed between the supporter and the base of the cover so as to resiliently support the supporter to thereby constantly abut the optic source element against the glass panel by an appropriate elastic force rendered by the elastic member.
- At the end of the positioning member facing the glass panel is formed with an enlarged portion for preventing the supporter from escaping from the positioning member. Since a conventional bolt is generally in a shape of elongated post with a head having a diameter greater than that of the post, so it can serve as the positioning member for the purpose of reducing production and assembly costs. Furthermore, the positioning member may be directly screwed into the cover, or screwably engaged with an engaging post protruded from an inner surface of the cover facing the glass panel.
- The elastic member may be a spring, an elastic cylindrical rod, or the like and is adapted for sleeving the positioning member or the engaging post for engagement with the positioning member.
- The supporter is formed with at least a hole for the insertion of the positioning member, so it can be slidably retained in position along the axial direction of the positioning member and resiliently supported by the elastic member for constantly abut the optic source element coupled to the slide rod connected with the supporter against the glass panel.
- The present invention will be detailed in the following with the accompanying drawings:
- FIG. 1 is a lateral schematic view showing the construction of a prior art scanner equipped with an upper transparency adapter.
- FIG. 2 is a partial perspective view of a conventional upper transparency adapter.
- FIG. 3 is a partial perspective view of a slide lever fixing structure in a conventional upper transparency adapter.
- FIG. 4 is a schematic perspective view of vibration-proof device according to the present invention.
- FIG. 5 is a lateral schematic view of vibration-proof device in the present invention.
- Referring to FIGS. 4 and 5, the vibration-proof device according to the present invention comprises a bolt (positioning member)29 screwed in the inner surface of a
cover 100, a plate support (supporter) 26 movably secured to thebolt 29, and a spring (elastic member) 30 interposed between theplate support 26 and thecover 100. - As shown in the drawing, a
engaging post 28 is protruded from an inner surface of thecover 100, and a part of thebolt 29 is screwed into theengaging post 28. Theplate support 26 has abottom plate 260 parallel to aglass panel 40, and twowalls bottom plate 260. Thebottom plate 260 is formed with ahole 262 for the insertion of thebolt 29, as shown in FIG. 5. The diameter of thehole 262 is larger than the that of the bolt, so that theplate support 26 can be slidably retained in position along the axial direction of thebolt 29, while the larger diameter head (enlarged portion) at the front end of thebolt 29 can prevent theplate support 26 from escaping from thebolt 29. - The
walls holes slide rod 20, respectively, as shown in FIG. 4. The distal end of theslide rod 20 passing through theholes plate 27. Theplate 27 is joined to thewall 266 of theplate support 26 by arivet 272 for preventing theslide rod 20 from rotation and moving axially. - As shown in FIG. 5, the
spring 30 sleeves thebolt 29 and theengaging post 28 to be interposed between thecover 100 and thebottom plate 262 of theplate support 26. Asliding carriage 14 movably installed on theslide rod 20 is designed so that the surface of alight source 12 on thesliding carriage 14 is slightly higher than the surface where theglass panel 40 is mounted. Therefore, when theglass panel 40 is mounted on thecover 100, theglass panel 40 will somewhat press down on thelight source 12. Due to such arrangement, the force depressing on thelight source 12 will be transmitted through thesliding carriage 14 and theslide rod 20 so as to press theplate support 26 downwards, and then thespring 30 is compressed. As a result, thecompressed spring 30 will resilient back on the plate support and theslide rod 20 so as to constantly abut thelight source 12 against theglass panel 40. - As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, a pulley wound by a
driving belt 25 to drive the slidingcarriage 14 is also mounted on thebottom plate 262 of theplate support 26, so that the buffer effect of thespring 30 will minimize possible vibration caused by the driving belt. - Therefore, comparing with the conventional technology, the present invention utilizes the resiliency of the compressing
spring 30 to push theplate support 26 and theslide rod 20 toward theglass panel 40 to constantly abut thelight source 12 against theglass panel 40, thus minimizing the gap between thelight source 12 and theglass panel 40, and preventing possible noise caused by thelight source 12 flapping on theglass panel 40 - Furthermore, since no gap occurs between the
light source 12 and theglass panel 40, thelight source 12 will not swing or oscillate, and therefore, the light emitted from thelight source 12 is stable to ensure the quality of scanning instead of resulting cross textures on the scanned image due to vibration in scanning. - The above description covers merely the preferred embodiment of the present invention, so any equivalent variations or modifications deriving from the spirit and approach shall be included in the scope of the subject claims.
