An imaging device assembly that includes a first imaging module frame, a second imaging module frame, and at least one first attachment member including a base positioned within an interior of the first imaging module frame and at least one protrusion extending from the base through a first wall portion of the first imaging module frame to be exposed external to the first imaging module frame, wherein the at least one protrusion is releasably connected to a top portion of the second imaging module frame.

Imaging device assembly

In one embodiment, an apparatus includes a transparent platen supported over an inside of a tub, an elongated member situated in the tub in a horizontal plane, a plurality of biasing members operatively connected to the elongated member, and a plurality of gap-maintaining members operable to connect to an image capture module and operatively connected to the platen. The elongated member is movable within a tub in a vertical plane, to movably support an image capture module in a horizontal plane. The biasing members are operable to urge the elongated member towards the platen. The gap-maintaining members are operable to maintain a constant distance between platen and an image capture module.

Image capture module support

A heated fuser roller that includes an elongated roller and a series of heating wires extending axially through the roller. The heating wires are positioned near the surface of the roller. Voltage is applied from a power source to the heating wires through conductive disks mounted on each end of the roller. A conductive wiper, shoe or other suitable contact device slides along each disk to maintain the electrical connection between the disks and the power source as the roller rotates.
