ABSTRACT:
An optical imaging device for projecting an image in a strip area, comprising a reflecting plate having a plurality of pairs of reflecting surfaces arranged on a flat surface and forming an array in a first direction parallel to a long direction of a strip image, and at least one cylindrical focusing lens or mirror having a focusing power directed only to a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The pair of reflecting surfaces is composed of two flat surfaces which cross at about a .pi./2 radian, and the crossing line of two adjacent reflecting surfaces is perpendicular to the first direction. The reflecting plate projects the image component in parallel to the first direction and the cylindrical focusing lens or mirror projects an image component perpendicular to the first direction. The resolving power in the first direction of the obtained image is determined by the pitch length of the pair of reflecting surfaces.
