An image reading device includes a placement section on which a subject is placed, an image capturing unit that is disposed above the placement section and captures an image of the subject, an irradiating unit that is disposed above the placement section and irradiates the subject with light, and a display unit that is disposed between the placement section and the image capturing unit and between the placement section and the irradiating unit, the display unit being located at a position outside an image capturing range of the image capturing unit and an irradiation range of the irradiating unit.

A microarrayer for dispensing reagent onto a substrate, comprising a dispensing print head adapted to load reagent and provided with a plurality of nozzles to dispense said at least reagent on the substrate, wherein the print head is mounted in the microarrayer to allow the print head to move with respect to the substrate in subsequent, essentially, parallel print passes, wherein the print head moves during a first print pass between a first end of the substrate toward a second end of the substrate and during a subsequent printpass in the opposite direction, the microarrayer being characterised in that the microarrayer comprises a first camera adapted to move behind the print head during a print pass and a second camera adapted to move ahead of the print head during said print pass, the first and second camera being adapted to obtain images of the substrate.

The reading device of the present disclosure includes a housing, a first irradiation part, an imaging device, and a first diffusion part. The housing has an opening in an upper portion with a transparent reading window member. The first irradiation part emits an infrared light. The imaging device is disposed on a bottom portion such that an optical axis is directed to a reading window member. The first diffusion part is disposed on a left side wall connecting the upper and bottom portions. The first diffusion part diffuses the infrared light. The first diffusion part is made up of a light-transmitting first diffusion plate and a light-transmitting second diffusion plate. The first diffusion plate is disposed on the bottom surface side and inclined toward the upper portion. The second diffusion plate is disposed on the upper surface side and inclined toward the bottom portion.

A display device is connected to the exterior of a document processing device. The display device includes a screen positioned to display in a first direction away from the exterior. Lights are connected to the display device. The lights are positioned to emit light in second direction toward the exterior of the document processing device. A processor is operatively connected to the display device and the lights. The processor is adapted to control the lights to emit corresponding lighting of a graphic item appearing on the screen.

On the basis of first read image data obtained by reading a first face, a controller calculates a first sub scanning size, which is a size of the first face in a sub scanning direction. On the basis of second read image data obtained by reading a second face, the controller calculates a second sub scanning size, which is a size of the second face in the sub scanning direction. The controller determines the larger of the first sub-scanning size and the second sub-scanning direction size to a definitive sub scanning size, which is the size of the document in the sub scanning direction set on the document stage.

Provided are portable workstation covers comprising a frame of interconnected panels which define an interior volume and a resilient support member received within a retaining sleeve. Related methods of and use are further provided.

A laser printhead assembly for a laser printhead is disclosed herein. The laser printhead assembly may include a laser containment door; and a laser containment housing that is configured to form a sealed enclosure with a label support of a rewriteable label. The sealed enclosure may be configured to include the rewriteable label and the laser printhead. The laser containment door, in a laser-enabled position, may be configured to permit the laser printhead, via a light beam, to modify the rewriteable label and the laser containment door, in a laser-disabled position, may be configured to prevent a light beam from escaping the laser containment housing.

An optical device includes: a lens member including a plurality of lenses arranged such that optical axes of the lenses are substantially parallel to one another; and a plurality of column parts that are each provided along the optical axis of each lens among the plurality of lenses and each allow light to pass through inside, each column part having an outer periphery through which light is less likely to pass from inside to outside the column part than through an end portion of the column part in a direction along the optical axis, the plurality of column parts being integrally formed and disposed to face the lens member.

An optical device includes: a lens member including a plurality of lenses arranged such that optical axes of the lenses are substantially parallel to one another; and a light-transmitting member including: at least one light-transmitting part that is disposed to face the lens member, positioned on the optical axis of some of the plurality of lenses, and transmits light; and a light-shielding part that is provided on a surface of the light-transmitting part and blocks passage of light.

A light-shielding member includes: plural light-shielding portions that extend in one direction and in which plural cylindrical through-holes which extend in an intersection direction intersecting the one direction and through which light passes are formed, the plural light-shielding portions being arranged in the one direction so that end portions of adjacent light-shielding portions overlap with each other in the intersection direction; and a fixing material that fixes the plural light-shielding portions to a housing in which an opening portion which opens in the intersection direction is formed so that the opening portion and the through-hole face each other in the intersection direction.
