ABSTRACT:
The upper housing of a flatbed scanner is provided with a plurality of integrally formed block members for locating a transparent platform on which an object to be scanned is placed. Each block member includes a horizontal block piece and a vertical block piece protruding from the horizontal block piece. The horizontal block piece is a protruding portion extending perpendicular to an internal surface of the upper housing for restricting horizontal movement of the transparent platform and the vertical block piece has a vertical retaining section having an inclined surface which flexes in the horizontal direction as the transparent platform is pushed past the vertical block piece, the vertical retaining section then recovering to vertically secure the transparent platform on the internal surface. The transparent platform can be mounted over the upper housing with no need to use adhesive tape.
