Embodiment Construction

[0053] An embodiment according to the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0054] First, the overall structure of the facsimile machine 1 is described. FIG. 1 is a side sectional view showing the overall configuration of a facsimile machine according to a first embodiment of the present invention. The facsimile machine 1 is provided with a cover 3 covering the main body casing 2 . The cover 3 is adapted to open and close the main body case 2 . In FIG. 1, the front of the facsimile machine 1 is shown on the right and the rear is shown on the left. Also, a paper holder 4 is provided on the rear upper portion of the cover 3 .

[0055] The main body case 2 and the cover 3 are connected by a cover rotating shaft 5 (at rear ends of the main body case 2 and the cover 3 ) to rotate around the cover rotating shaft 5 . When the user of the facsimile machine 1 opens the cover 3 by operating a lever (not shown), the cover 3 r...

Abstract

A detecting system capable of detecting an open / closed state of a cover equipped to a body of a device is provided. The detecting system comprises a body, a cover that moves in a range between an open position and a fully-closed position, a detecting unit that detects open state and closed state of the cover, an actuating mechanism equipped to the cover, a part of which is shifted in a first direction according to opening motion and closing motion of the cover, and affects the detecting unit, and a releasing mechanism by which the part of the actuating mechanism is shifted in a second direction when the cover in the open position is brought in a position in adjacent to the fully-closed position and when the cover in the fully-closed position is opened to a predetermined extent to be in the position in adjacent to the fully-closed position.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application claims priority from Japanese Patent Application No. 2005-249243 filed on August 30, 2005, the entire subject matter of which is incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0003] The present invention relates to an open / close state detection system of a cover arranged on a device main body, and an image processing device equipped with the detection system. Background technique [0004] Generally, a device such as a facsimile machine having a main body and a cover usually has a function of detecting the open / closed state of the cover if the cover is configured to be openable and closed. In such a facsimile apparatus, when the state of the cover is detected and the cover is determined to be closed, various operations such as scanning an original and recording an image on recording paper, etc. are started. [0005] To detect the open / closed state of the cover, a switch may be provided in the hou...
