Abstract:
1. A laser scanning assembly for installation within a housing, said laser scanning assembly comprising: a scan mirror and magnet rotor subassembly having a stator structure mounted stationary relative to a housing, and including a frame holder having a support member for supporting said frame holder within said housing; a pair of support elements provided on said frame holder, so that said pair of silicone torsional hinges are mounted to said support elements along the scan axis, and torsionally support said scan mirror and magnet rotor subassembly and allow said scan mirror and magnet rotor assembly to oscillate freely about said scan axis passing through said silicone torsional hinges and said support elements; and an omni-directional rotor motion limiting arrangement for limiting rotational and translational motion of said scan mirror and magnet rotor subassembly, when said laser scanning assembly is subjected to external shock forces exceeding a predetermined threshold.
