Imaging module where chassis walls optically isolate an imager from a light source

摘要

An imaging module for reading targets by image capture is mounted as a unitary assembly within an imaging reader. An imager is mounted on a first printed circuit board (PCB), and an interface connector is mounted on a second PCB. The first PCB is in direct, surface-area contact with first chassis walls of a chassis and is positioned to lie in a generally upright, first predetermined plane. The second PCB is in direct, surface-area contact with second chassis walls of the chassis and is positioned to lie in a generally tilted, second predetermined plane that is inclined at a tilt angle relative to the first predetermined plane. The first and second chassis walls are constituted as a one-piece support that maintains the tilt angle between the PCBs.
