Abstract
A built-in scanner for computers includes a transport portion and a case. The case is mounted in a computer, and the transport portion is extractive. There is only one way to feed document sheets, the document sheet is thus smoothly and fed through the built-in scanner without vibration. As the transport portion is engaged into the case, the built-in scanner is completely assembled. The transport portion of the built-in scanner can transport document sheets one by one for scanning. In addition, as the document sheet is jammed, the transport portion of the built-in scanner can be extracted for repairing.
