Abstract

See full text

A protective cap for a scanning device is provided that retains a device exit window in a fixed position relative to a scan engine while reducing the likelihood of a collision between the scan engine and the exit window when the scanning device is subjected to mechanical stress. Also provided are scanning devices having such a protective cap. The protective cap includes first, second and third portions. The first portion is coupled with an outwardly-facing surface of the exit window and operates to retain the exit window against a scan engine support. The second portion is coupled with the scan engine support and operates to keep the scan engine at a fixed distance from the exit window. The third portion is coupled with an enclosure for the scanning device and operates to secure the exit window and the scan engine at a fixed position with respect to the enclosure.
