Abstract
The invention concerns image-recording apparatus, which records an image onto a sheet-film. The image-recording apparatus includes a mainframe; a main/sub-scanning unit that includes a main-scanning unit to expose a light-beam onto a sheet-film by scanning the light-beam in a main-scanning direction and a sub-scanning unit to convey the sheet-film in a sub-scanning direction; and a supporting member to mount and support the main/sub-scanning unit onto the mainframe at a supporting position. The height of the supporting position is substantially the same as that of a center of gravity of the main/sub-scanning unit. The sub-scanning unit is detachably integrated with the main-scanning unit to form the main/sub-scanning unit.
Claims8
An apparatus, comprising:
- a mainframe of said apparatus;
- a main/sub-scanning unit that includes a main-scanning unit to expose a light-beam onto a sheet-film by scanning said light-beam in a main-scanning direction and a sub-scanning unit to convey said sheet-film in a sub-scanning direction;
- and
- a supporting member to mount and support said main/sub-scanning unit onto said mainframe at a supporting position;
- wherein a height of said supporting position is substantially the same as that of a center of gravity of said main/sub-scanning unit.
An apparatus, comprising:
- a mainframe of said apparatus;
- a main/sub-scanning unit that includes a main-scanning unit to expose a light-beam onto a sheet-film by scanning said light-beam in a main-scanning direction and a sub-scanning unit to convey said sheet-film in a sub-scanning direction;
- a supporting member to mount and support said main/sub-scanning unit onto said mainframe at a supporting position;
- and
- a regulating member to regulate horizontal movement of said main/sub-scanning unit;
- wherein said regulating member is disposed between said main-scanning unit and said supporting member fixed onto said mainframe, and a height of said regulating member is substantially the same as that of a center of gravity of said main/sub-scanning unit.
