    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an image reading apparatus in which the optical adjustment of mirrors is facilitated when supporting carriages, on which the mirrors are mounted, on right and left rail surfaces movably along a platen.
    SOLUTION: The image reading apparatus is configured to guide reflection light from a document to an image reading means 11 through first and second carriages 3 and 4 moving at a predetermined speed along a document image on a platen. The first carriage 3 supports a mirror at three points such that a one-side end of a mirror is supported by first and second mirror supporting parts 32a and 32b and an other-side end is supported by a third mirror supporting part 32c. Both-side ends of the first carriage are then supported to be slidable on a pair of right and left rail members 5a and 5b through slide members 33a-33d disposed at two positions on forward and backward sides, respectively, at four positions on right and left sides. At least one of the slide members 33c and 33d at two positions on the forward and backward sides disposed at a side of the third mirror supporting part supporting the first mirror at one point is supported by an adjustment screw or the like so as to adjust its position in height.

    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.
