Description

The light path layout of image retrieval system and reach method
Technical field
The present invention relates to the light path layout of a kind of light path layout of image retrieval system, particularly a kind of optimized image retrieval system and reach method.
Background technology
Now, be applicable to that the digital product in various fields is constantly weeded out the old and bring forth the new, for example: notebook, palmtop computer, 3C household electrical appliances etc.Generally speaking, these digital products can connect one in order to the device of the show image image output with the display digit product, also or digital product itself promptly has display, for example, LCD, display panels etc.For for the digital device of handling image, can be divided into the static image treating apparatus haply, for example: digital camera, scanner; With the dynamic image treating apparatus, for example: digital camera.
The most important person of image processor is the image retrieval system part, and image retrieval system relates to the product of optical principle, and its part that comprises has video search module, catoptron, lens.Usually, the video search module has an electric coupling assembly (Charge-Coupled Device; CCD), electric coupling assembly (CCD) is a kind of circuit arrangement to light sensitive, and image processor is to utilize the message remain in above the electric coupling assembly (CCD), each figure point assembly is converted to image data to the susceptibility of light stores.
For scanner, traditional image retrieval system is to utilize single movable image indexing unit or eyeglass reflection interaction mode to read image.When light, will produce half and change angle (θ/2) to the light-sensitive surface of electric coupling assembly (CCD) time via image reflection.Generally speaking, the light-sensitive surface of electric coupling assembly (CCD) is for surperficial always, and it is not to be a curved surfaces.Therefore, when partly changing angle (θ/2) when excessive, the light-sensitive surface of electric coupling assembly (CCD) can't absorb reflected light.In view of this, must reduce Ban Huajiao (θ/2) so that electric coupling assembly (CCD) can fully absorb reflected light.One of the preferred approach that reduces Ban Huajiao (θ/2) is for increasing the length of optical path (common name light path), and optical path length is long more, and then partly to change angle (θ/2) more little.Similarly, when optical path length was long more, the light-sensitive surface of electric coupling assembly (CCD) also can be along with dwindling, thereby make overall volume reduce.Therefore, possessing long image retrieval system apart from the light distance can make the manufacturing cost of video search module reduce and manufacturing production easily.
In addition, traditional image retrieval system is the peripheral position that assemblies such as video search module, catoptron, lens is arranged at image retrieval system.With reference to shown in Figure 1, image retrieval system 100 has a housing 110, and housing 110 has a light path layout zone 110A and a block region 110B, wherein, catoptron 120A to 120C is placed in respectively among the 110A of light path layout zone, and lens 130 place respectively in the block region 110B with video search module 140.Yet light path layout zone 110A is positioned at the marginarium of housing 110, and light path layout zone 110A represents the only space of spendable light path layout, and the mode of light path layout changes along with the size of the diameter (φ) of lens.Therefore, when the size of video search module 140 and lens 130 was big, it occupied the space of the housing 110 of most image retrieval system 100, and then has limited the optical path length of light path layout.
In view of above-mentioned various reasons, therefore need a kind of light path layout of optimized image retrieval system and reach method, so that reduce the space requirement of image retrieval system, can reduce the manufacturing cost of video search module in view of the above and be easy to and manufacture, and and then promote the yield that scans quality.
Summary of the invention
