Abstract: In an image reading apparatus having an easy-to-adjust optical system, a unit is composed of a first sub-unit including an image forming lens and a second sub-unit including a solid-state image pickup element. The first sub-unit and the second sub-unit are mutually adjusted in position in X-axis, Y-axis and Z-axis while the two sub-units are also adjustable around X-axis and Z-axis. After the first sub-unit and the second sub-unit are adjusted using a tool, the unit is then assembled into the apparatus. The unit is rotated around an optical axis of the image forming lens for adjustment of perpendicularity. The unit is also rotated around a line direction of the solid-state image pickup element for adjustment of scanning synchronization (the reading position in a sub-scan direction).

Abstract: An image reader adopting an off-axial optical system, an adjustable imaging mirror and a CCD fixed to a highly rigid structure. Since the relative position between reflecting and imaging mirrors can be set highly accurately, adjusting only the CCD-mounting position allows a required specification of the read image to be met. The imaging mirror can easily be adjusted without distorting the reflecting surface. The reflecting and imaging mirrors, and the CCD-mounting-position adjuster are positioned directly to reflecting-mirror supporting sections, imaging-mirror supporting sections, and CCD supporting sections, which are integrated with a carriage casing, and fixed to them. The CCD is fixed to the carriage casing with the CCD-mounting-position adjuster. An imaging mirror close to a diaphragm and adjacent to the image is supported by a mirror adjusting plate, which can be displaced to adjust the position of the imaging mirror.

Abstract: A scanning module of the present invention includes a light source for illuminating a document. Light reflected by the document is incident to a first and a second mirror provided in a pair. The two mirrors reflect the light a plurality of times therebetween and then output it as light reflected from the first mirror. Subsequently, a third and a fourth mirror sequentially reflect the light along a path including a lens. A fifth mirror reflects the light incident thereto from the lens. A linear sensor is spaced from the fifth mirror by a preselected distance such that the light passed through the lens is focused on the linear sensor. The first and second mirrors are adjustable in position on a path, extending from the document to the first mirror, while maintaining a positional relation therebetween.
