TLDR
In this paper, a contact type image sensor is proposed, which includes a transparent member which can contact an original to read, a light source for radiating light onto the original via the transparent member, a sensor for receiving light reflected by the original, an imaging element for imaging the reflected light on a light-receiving portion of the sensor, and a support unit for supporting the sensor and the light source.
Abstract
A contact type image sensor, which includes a transparent member which can contact an original to be read, a light source for radiating light onto the original via the transparent member, a sensor for receiving light reflected by the original, an imaging element for imaging the reflected light on a light-receiving portion of the sensor, and a support unit for supporting the sensor, the imaging element, the transparent member, and the light source. The imaging element and the light source are supported by the transparent member and the support unit.

Image information reading apparatus

TL;DR: In this article, a scanner for reading an image is driven along the surface of a desired image sheet to scan the same, by means of a drive unit, in a manner such that the scanner is opposed to the sheet.
Patent

Contact type line image sensor

TL;DR: In this paper, a contact type image sensor provided with a case where a read space (22) subject to damage by dust and a light source space (21) less damaged by dust are completely separated from each other is formed with a reflecting mirror surface for effectively guiding light from the light source to an original read surface.
