Abstract: A protruding locking pawl is provided at an end of a light guide which corresponds to a first light input surface. A recessed locking portion is formed in a frame so that the locking pawl can be locked in the locking portion. A light blocking member is slidably loosely inserted into a position where the light blocking member covers a longitudinal end of the light guide which corresponds to a second light input surface. Even if expansion and contraction occurs in the longitudinal direction of the light guide, the design dimensions of a first gap A and a second gap B can be maintained; the first gap A is formed between the first light input surface and a first light source, and the second gap B formed between the second light input surface and a second light source. Therefore, possible leakage current can be prevented.

Abstract: An original reading unit has first and second arrays of sensor assemblies extending in a main scanning direction for performing readings of an original document. Each of the sensor assemblies includes a sensor holder that undergoes pivotal movement about a single rotation center as a fulcrum along a wall of a unit base to bring the sensor holder to a predetermined position whereat the sensor holder can be fixed to the units base wall. A line sensor is mounted relative to the sensor holder so as not to be shifted in the main scanning direction or in a sub-scanning direction, and to undergo movement in an approaching or a separating direction so as to be brought into contact with or separated from, respectively, the unit base wall and an original support plate attached to the unit base. A focus setup unit moves the line sensor in the approaching or separating direction and positions the line sensor at a location whereat focus can be adjusted.

Abstract: A scanning apparatus having an adjusting means is provided to allow the optical scanning module against the platen. The adjusting means is assembled with the carriage that carries the optical scanning module. The adjusting means at least comprises a roller and a rotated portion, wherein the roller tightly contacts the rotated portion. When the carriage is moving (during a scanning operation), the roller is rotating and friction (between the roller and the rotating assembly) causes the rotated portion to turn until contacting with the bottom surface of the optical scanning module, thereby allowing the optical scanning module against the platen.
