Image pickup apparatus

An image pickup apparatus captures an image from a subject without a focus-adjusting mechanism. An image pickup element has opposed first and second surfaces and an image region formed in the first surface. An optical system causes the image light from the subject to form an image on the image region. A supporting member has a first abutment portion that engages the optical system with nothing sandwiched therebetween, and a second abutment portion that engages the image pickup element with nothing sandwiched therebetween, thereby accurately positioning the optical system relative to the image pickup element. The second abutment portion abuts an area on the first surface except for the image region. A circuit board is fixed to the supporting member and electrically connected to the image pickup element. The circuit board has an opening formed therein such that the image region is exposed through the opening.

Laser beam generating apparatus for a laser scanning unit

A laser beam generating apparatus of a laser scanning unit, including: a laser diode; a collimate lens for converting a laser beam emitted from the laser diode to a parallel light; a collimate lens holder for disposing the collimate lens on an optical axis of the laser beam; a base for mounting the laser diode and the collimate lens holder thereon; and a supporting means formed on the base to provisionally fix the collimate lens holder. Since a dedicated implement complements an ultraviolet (UV) bond to provisionally fix the collimate lens holder in the calibration position, assembling errors can be prevented although the UV bond changes in volume while being hardened, thereby improving productivity and quality of goods.

Linear motion guide unit

ActiveUS20060029306A1Accurately constructEasy constructionLinear bearingsFastenerEngineering
A linear motion guide unit is disclosed, in which components required for a slider are all joined together with no fasteners including bolts, screws, and so on used conventional assembly operations, but mutual fit-engagement of any components with their mating counterparts. This allows reducing the number of components to cope with a modern tendency of miniaturization of the linear motion guide system. The slider includes a carriage casing composed of end panels facing forward and aft ends of a carriage, one to each end, and side panels facing widthwise opposing sides of the carriage, one to each, the end and side panels being connected integrally to surround the carriage. To complete the slider, the carriage first fits between the end panels of the carriage casing. Then, end caps are applied to outward surfaces of the end panels of the carriage casing and joined together by making fit-engagement of mating parts on the end caps with counterparts on the carriage and carriage casing complementary to the mating parts.
