Abstract: An image reading device capable of correctly reading an image on a document is provided without the need to increase the size of an upper cover, etc. of the device. A CIS (Contact Image Sensor) is supported by holders and support shafts to be movable toward the upper cover (rib) and is biased toward the rib by compression springs. In this configuration, the rib for holding the document is not required to be installed as a movable component and there is no need to provide a space for allowing the rib to move or providing the upper cover with a mechanism for allowing the rib to move, which can avoid the need to increase the size of the upper cover.

Abstract: A scanning module capable of finely tuning the optical length comprises a lamp tube, a base, a photosensitive substrate, and an adjustment unit. The lamp tube provides a required light source for a document to be scanned. The base has a reflective mirror set and a camera lens. The reflective mirror set is used to receive light from the document, and transmits the light to the camera lens for focusing. The photosensitive substrate is used to convert light outputted by the camera lens into electronic signals. The adjustment unit is used to adjust the optical length between the base and the photosensitive substrate. The total optical length can thus be adjusted to correct the inaccuracy of magnification. Or the distance between the camera lens and the photosensitive substrate can be adjusted to align the focal length within the allowable inaccuracy of magnification to achieve an output image of better quality.

Abstract: An optical scanning apparatus includes a plate member, having a rotation axis and a reflection surface, that deflects and scans a laser beam emitted from a light source by performing reciprocating-rotation around the rotation axis, an actuator configured to drive the plate member, an fθ-lens configured to focus the laser beam deflected by the plate member on a surface of a photosensitive drum, and an optical box configured to house the plate member, the actuator, and the fθ-lens. The actuator is provided nearer to a side of the optical box toward which the laser beam is reflected by the reflection surface than the reflection surface of the plate member is.
