Abstract:
An image-reading apparatus includes a light source unit that includes, a light source section on which a plurality of light-emitting elements that emit light toward a medium whose image is read by an image-capturing unit are arranged in a main-scanning direction, and a diffusion unit that diffuses therein the light emitted from the light-emitting elements, wherein a rib provided in a frame of the image-reading apparatus, the rib being capable of being fitted with a cutout portion, the light source section includes a connector provided at one end of the main-scanning direction and the cutout portion provided at the other end of the main-scanning direction, the diffusion unit has a shape through which the light source section is inserted, and a size of the diffusion unit in the main-scanning direction is equal to or shorter than a distance between the connector and the cutout portion.
Abstract:
A paper ejection tray assembly for ejecting paper in an ejecting direction in an image reading device includes a tray body including a stacking surface for stacking an ejected paper, and a pair of movable ribs which are arranged a predetermined distance apart from each other in a direction perpendicular to the ejection direction of the paper and which project out from the stacking surface of the tray body at least when paper is ejected from an ejection slot, the pair of ribs respectively have first inclined surfaces with heights from the stacking surface gradually becoming higher from the downstream side toward the upstream side of the ejection direction of the paper so as to guide the paper ejected from the ejection slot.
