A battery pack for an electro-optical reader includes a rechargeable battery and a printed circuit board (PCB), both mounted in a battery housing. First and second electrical connectors are supported by the same PCB and/or the battery housing. The first electrical connector is connected to reader contacts in the reader when the battery pack is mounted in the reader. The second electrical connector is either connected to station contacts in a docking station when the reader is docked, or to a recharging cable.

An illumination light source emits illumination light toward a target to be read by image capture. An imaging assembly captures the illumination light returning from the target along an imaging axis over a field of view that extends along mutually orthogonal, first and second directions that are generally perpendicular to the imaging axis. A compound parabolic reflector receives, and optically modifies, the emitted illumination light to generate a generally uniform illumination light pattern that is substantially congruent to, and substantially overlaps, the field of view along both of the first and second directions. The compound parabolic reflector has first and second pairs of parabolic segments for respectively reflecting the emitted illumination light over first and second illumination angles along the first and second directions.

An imaging sensor of an imaging reader senses return light from a target to be read by image capture along an imaging axis over a field of view that extends along mutually orthogonal, horizontal and vertical axes. Two aiming light assemblies are offset from the sensor and are spaced apart along the horizontal axis at opposite sides of the sensor, and direct two aiming light lines, each having a predetermined brightness, at the target. The aiming lines are collinear along the horizontal axis and have inner linear end regions that overlap on the target to form a bright, linear, aiming mark having a brightness greater than the predetermined brightness to visually indicate a center zone of the field of view, as well as outer linear end regions that visually indicate approximate end limits of the field of view, over a range of working distances.

Apparatus for an method of reading indicia by using non-readily visible illumination light

Номер: US20130299581A1
Автор: Darran M. Handshaw, Eric S. Trongone, Mark E. Drzymala
Принадлежит: Symbol Technologies LLC

Infrared light, which is non-readily visible, illuminates at least part of a field of view containing indicia to be electro-optically read. Visible light illuminates another field of view containing the same indicia. The indicia is read by image capture by the illumination light from one of the illuminated fields of view. The use of IR light minimizes an adverse reaction due to only using bright visible light. The use of visible light enables thermally printed indicia, which is not readily readable by IR light, to be read.

An optical assembly for an electro-optical reader includes a lens mounted in a stepped barrel. The stepped barrel has a barrel step between first and second barrel portions. The optical assembly is installed along an optical axis in a stepped chassis having a first chassis section that receives the first barrel portion with a slip fit in which a mechanical clearance exists between the first chassis section and the first barrel portion, a second chassis section that receives the second barrel portion with an engagement fit in which the second barrel portion frictionally moves against the second chassis section, and a chassis step between the first and second chassis sections. The chassis step is spaced away from the barrel step after installation of the optical assembly to bound a debris compartment to trap any debris resulting from the frictional movement of the second barrel portion against the second chassis section.

Symmetric customer side scanner for bioptic rear tower

Номер: WO2014107430A4
Автор: Darran M. Handshaw, Joseph D. GIORDANO, Mark E. Drzymala
Принадлежит: Symbol Technologies, Inc.

A checkout system includes a workstation having a first workstation window located in a generally horizontal plane and a second workstation window located in a generally upright plane. The workstation includes a data capture arrangement for capturing through at least one of the workstation windows target data of targets associated with the products. The workstation also includes a rear cover having a first opening and a second opening. The first opening and the second opening are located on opposite side-walls of the rear cover and substantially identical in size. The first opening allows light from additional targets entering an accessory reader from an accessory window facing the bagging area, but the second opening is covered by a side cover.

Arrangement for and method of trapping debris in an electro-optical reader

An optical assembly for an electro-optical reader includes a lens mounted in a stepped barrel. The stepped barrel has a barrel step between first and second barrel portions. The optical assembly is installed along an optical axis in a stepped chassis having a first chassis section that receives the first barrel portion with a slip fit in which a mechanical clearance exists between the first chassis section and the first barrel portion, a second chassis section that receives the second barrel portion with an engagement fit in which the second barrel portion frictionally moves against the second chassis section, and a chassis step between the first and second chassis sections. The chassis step is spaced away from the barrel step after installation of the optical assembly to bound a debris compartment to trap any debris resulting from the frictional movement of the second barrel portion against the second chassis section.

Module or arrangement for, and method of, reading a target by image capture with an imaging reader having offset imaging and aiming systems

Номер: US09946908B2
Автор: Darran M. Handshaw, Edward D. Barkan, Mark E. Drzymala

An imaging sensor of an imaging reader senses return light from a target to be read by image capture along an imaging axis over a field of view that extends along mutually orthogonal, horizontal and vertical axes. Two aiming light assemblies are offset from the sensor and are spaced apart along the horizontal axis at opposite sides of the sensor, and direct two aiming light marks, each having a predetermined brightness, at the target. The aiming marks are collinear along the horizontal axis and have inner end regions that overlap on the target to form a bright aiming mark having a brightness greater than the predetermined brightness to visually indicate a center zone of the field of view, as well as outer end regions that visually indicate approximate end limits of the field of view, over a range of working distances.
