Abstract: This invention relates to a scanning device for scanning a document such as a photograph (101) using an image sensor device (201) that uses optics that may have a narrow depth of focus (307), the scanning avoiding contact of the document by the image sensor device during scanning. That is, the focal volume (311) of the sensor device is at a distance from the image sensor device (201). The scanning device includes a positioning mechanism (203, 204) that maintains the front surface of the document in the focal volume during scanning.

Abstract: A picture reader is provided with a read unit (2) equipped with a contacting member (21) which comes into contact with an original placing table (11) of a flat bed unit (1) and a pressing element (30) which presses the unit (2) against the table (11). Another picture reader is composed of a reader main body (50) having a read unit (102) and an original placing table (51), and an original cover (42) which has a light source (43) and a diffusing plate (45) and is attached to the main body (50) is an openable state, the distance to the light source (43) from a transparent original (41) placed on the table (51) being variable correspondingly to the thickness of the original (41). A still another picture reader reads in advance the accumulated difference between the movement of the optical unit (102) and a light source unit (43) and, when read scanning is started, shifts the relative position of the optical unit (102) to the light source unit (44) in the direction in which the accumulated difference is produced.

Abstract: An image reading device includes a memory unit for storing positional information of a sensor for moving by a drive unit to read an image of a document and a control unit for controlling the drive unit to move the sensor based on the positional information stored in the memory unit. The control unit drives the drive unit by an amount of driving sufficient for an image reading unit to move in a predetermined direction to abut the stop members, controls the drive unit to move the sensor so as to detect the position mark, and updates the positional information of the memory unit to a predetermined initial value based on the detection of the position mark by the sensor. The image reading device can store data of a reference position promptly even if a photo-interrupter is not provided when the data of the reference position is not stored in a memory unit.

Abstract: Scanning errors and document feed errors are prevented by pressing originals, including thin originals and thick originals of greatly different thickness, to the scanning surface (1a) of an image sensor (1) with pressure appropriate for the respective original. A pressure-generating mechanism (50) presses the original against the scanning surface (1a) by using a selected one of multiple elastic bodies (5, 6) producing different elastic force.

Abstract: An image reading apparatus in which a CIS (1) is pressed by springs (5) to cause abutment members (2) to abut the lower surface of an original support glass (3), wherein the abutment members (2) are arranged within the main scanning reading range of the CIS and, more specifically, at positions where the deflection amount of the original support glass (3) with respect to the end portions of the main scanning reading range is approximately 1/2 of the maximum deflection amount. Thus, when the original support glass (3) is deflected, the CIS is pressed down against the spring force by approximately 1/2 of the maximum deflection amount in the main scanning reading range of the original support glass from the position where the original table has no deflection, whereby the optimum focal position of the CIS is downwardly shifted and as the result, the upper surface of the original support glass constituting the original surface is retained within the effective focus range of the CIS over the entire main scanning reading range, thereby making it possible to perform high quality image reading.
