Abstract:
A scanning device for bar-code scanner, the scanning device being disposed in a bar-code scanner for scanning bar code on an article, comprising:a rotation mechanism, housed in the bar-code scanner, having a Rotator provided with a reflection member and a live spindle, wherein the live spindle penetrates the Rotator; an actuator member is attached to the live spindle in a recessed portion of the Rotator; and a recessed portion is formed in two lateral faces of the Rotator respectively for accommodating a magnet; and a driving mechanism disposed on those two lateral faces of the Rotator respectively for driving the Rotator to rotate by induced magnetic force; and by the arrangement, the reflection member on the Rotator can reflect light of a laser light source in the bar-code scanner upon bar code of an article for bar-code scanning when the Rotator is repulsed to rotate by magnetic force of the driving mechanism.
