An image reading apparatus includes a conveyance unit, a first reading unit, a first guide portion, a second reading unit, and a second guide portion. The second reading unit includes a rectangular transparent member, an optical reading unit, a housing, a first and a second contact portions, a first and a second pressing members, and a protruding portion. The first and the second contact portions are protruding from a facing surface of the housing. The protruding portion, when viewed from an upstream side in a conveyance direction of a recording material passing through a conveyance path between the second reading unit and the second guide portion, is disposed between the first contact portion and the second contact portion and protruding from the facing surface of the housing, a protruding amount of the protruding portion being smaller than protruding amounts of the first and the second contact portions.
Abstract:
An image reading device is provided with a guide member having a light-blocking portion with its upper surface positioned above an extended surface of a reading surface of an optical reader. The device is also provided with a slant surface between the reading surface of the optical reader and the light-blocking portion. The device is further provided with upper guide surfaces facing the light-blocking portion and the slant surface respectively, at a predetermined distance.
