An image reading apparatus includes an original-sheet support table and reading an image on an original sheet supported by the original-sheet support table. The original-sheet support table includes: (a) an original-sheet support surface on which the original sheet is supported; (b) a contact surface which stands up from the original-sheet support surface and is contactable with one side of the original sheet supported by the original-sheet support surface; and (c) at least one guide mark which is provided in the contact surface. The original sheet is positioned on the original-sheet support surface in a state in which the one side of the original sheet is held in contact with the contact surface of the original-sheet support table and one end of the one side of the original sheet is aligned with the at least one guide mark.

An image reader has an image sensor; a carriage; a positioning portion formed at a predetermined position in a longitudinal direction of the image sensor with respect to a reference position of the image sensor; a connector portion to which an electric cable is connected and which is provided between an end of the carriage and one end in the longitudinal direction of a case of the image sensor; and an engaging portion formed in the carriage. In the image recording apparatus, since the positioning portion is engaged with the engaging portion, it is possible to use a common carriage for a plurality of types of image sensors, and an operation of connecting the electric cable becomes simple.

A scanning unit is configured to slide along a guide shaft that extends in a predetermined direction. The scanning unit includes a carriage configured to slide along the guide shaft, a bearing which is disposed on a carriage and through which the guide shaft passes, and an elastic deformation allowance mechanism which permits elastic deformation of the external shape of the bearing in the predetermined direction at a predetermined time. For example, a contact image sensor unit includes a box equipped with a contact image sensor. The box has a bearing through which a guide shaft is inserted. The bearing has a pair of bosses, bushings that fit therein, and a coil spring that is disposed between the bushings. The bushings are urged by the coil spring, so that the bushings continually protrude outwards. As the contact image sensor unit slides along the guide shaft, the bushings insert in between the bosses when the bushings abut the wall surface of the frame, so that the bearing is deformed elastically. An image reading device may include a scanning unit.

A document feeder includes a substantially U-shaped document transporting pathway with an upper feeding tray and a lower discharging tray, a separating-transporting device including a first rotation driving member and a first contacting member, a reverse transporting device including a second rotation driving member and a second contacting member and a pathway cover, which includes at least the second contacting member among the first and second contacting members, and capable of rotating about a rotational shaft closer to the discharging tray than the feeding tray. When the pathway cover is opened, at least the second contacting member of the first and second contacting members is separated from the second rotation member and at least a part of the document transporting pathway is exposed.

An image processing device comprises a first feeding unit and a second feeding unit, wherein the first feeding unit is coupled to the second feeding unit via a sheet feeding path, and is configured to feed a sheet toward the second feeding unit in a sheet feeding direction via the sheet feeding path. The image processing device further comprises an image processing portion, wherein the first feeding unit is disposed in the sheet feeding path upstream of the image processing portion in the sheet feeding direction, and the first feeding unit comprises a first shaft configured to rotate in the sheet feeding direction. The second feeding unit is disposed in the sheet feeding path downstream of the image processing portion in the sheet feeding direction, and the first feeding unit and the second feeding unit are configured to feed and hold the sheet simultaneously. The second feeding unit comprises a second shaft configured to rotate in the feeding direction. The image processing device further comprises a first supporting member which rotatably supports each of a first end of the first shaft and a second end of the first shaft, a second supporting member which rotatably supports each of a first end of the second shaft and a second end of the second shaft, and a third supporting member which rotatably supports at least one of the first shaft and the second shaft at least one predetermined portion which is different than each end of the at least one of the first shaft and the second shaft.

The driving device is provided with a motor, a pinion, a first gear, a second gear, and a frame. The frame has a motor side surface and a gear side surface, and includes a first portion and a second portion. A motor housing of the motor is fixed to and supported at the motor side surface of the first portion. A motor shaft extends from the motor housing, penetrating the first portion from the motor side surface to the gear side surface. The pinion is fixed to the distal end of the motor shaft at the gear side surface. The first gear and the second gear are coaxially disposed and rotatably supported at the gear side surface of the second portion. The driving force of the motor is transmitted to the first gear and the second gear through the pinion. The gear side surface of the second portion is offset toward the motor side than the motor side surface of the first portion.
