Abstract: There is a problem that the contact-type image sensor, for adoption in an image input/output apparatus to input/output the image of a large-sized document, such as A0 or A1 size, is weak in lengthwise rigidity and readily deflected at its lengthwise center by its own weight. Accordingly, by attaching a deformation rectifier to the image sensor in a lengthwise direction thereof, the contact type image sensor is reinforced in lengthwise rigidity. The deformation rectifier reinforces the rigidity of the contact type image sensor, thereby preventing the contact type image sensor from deflecting vertically relative to its lengthwise direction and keeping constant the focal length between the surface of the document to be read and the sensor IC.

Abstract: In an image sensor including a light emitting element for emitting a light beam to be incident on a document, a light receiving element for receiving the light beam reflected by the document, and a lens array for directing the reflected light beam from the document to the light receiving element, there is located a mirror between the lens array and the light receiving element for changing the direction of the light beam passing through the lens array. The light emitting element and the light receiving element are located on the same substrate. With this arrangement, a compact and inexpensive image sensor can be achieved. This compact image sensor causes an increased amount of light to be incident on the document.

Abstract: An image sensor module includes a light source unit that emits a linear light beam elongate in a primary scanning direction to an object to be read, and a lens unit including an incidence surface and an output surface oriented opposite to each other. The lens unit is configured to receive light from the object through the incidence surface and output the light through the output surface. The module also includes a sensor IC that receives the light outputted from the output surface, a housing that holds the light source unit and the lens unit, and a support member that supports the lens unit such that the incidence surface is located more distant from the sensor IC than the output surface in a secondary scanning direction.
