摘要： An automatic document feeding device includes a conveyance unit, an image reading unit, a color reference member, a moving assembly, and a drive source. The conveyance unit conveys a document to an image reading position. The image reading unit reads an image of the document. The color reference member faces the image reading unit and includes a white reference face to correct shading. The moving assembly relatively moves the image reading unit and the color reference member. The movement regulator regulates a relative movement of the image reading unit and the color reference member by the moving assembly. The drive source includes a common rotation output shaft to drive the conveyance unit and the moving assembly. The drive source changes the rotation output shaft from a forward rotation direction to a reverse rotation direction to reversely rotate the rotation output shaft to a set reverse rotation angle set in advance, according to a condition of conveyance of the document by the conveyance unit. In a rotation transmission route from the rotation output shaft to the moving assembly, the movement regulator is disposed in a first reverse rotation drive region from when a rotation direction of the rotation output shaft is changed to the reverse rotation direction to when a rotation angle of the rotation output shaft after the change in the reverse rotation direction reaches the set revere rotation angle. The moving assembly relatively moves the image reading unit and the color reference member in a second reverse rotation drive region where the rotation output shaft is rotated in the reverse rotation direction beyond the set reverse rotation angle.

摘要： An image reading device includes: a reading unit; a first detecting unit that detects a position of the reading unit in the sub-scanning direction; a second detecting unit that detects a position of the reading unit in the sub-scanning direction; and a calculating unit that calculates a skew quantity and a skew direction of the reading unit, based on a difference, introduced by the skew, between a travel distance by which the reading unit has travelled from a measurement reference position located on an upstream side of the first detecting unit and the second detecting unit in a moving direction to a point where the reading unit is detected by the first detecting unit, and a travel distance by which the reading unit has travelled from the measurement reference position to a point where the reading unit is detected by the second detecting unit.
