    Abstract: An illumination device includes a light guide made of plastic, and a light source including a light emitting element whose dominant wavelength is a light emission wavelength in an infrared region, and identifies a banknote. White reference plates are provided at positions that are at opposite ends of a rod lens array and cover respective areas external to an image region across the banknote. A correction coefficient is acquired by calculation. The calculation is made by correcting an illuminance such that IR correction data is substantially identical to IR reference data preliminarily stored in a memory circuit in a signal processor on the basis of IR white reference data representing a white reference illuminance generated from light reflected from the white reference plates. The correction coefficient is used for correcting IR image data when the banknote is read.

    Abstract: A sensor chip arranged in a casing having a window portion on the side thereof to be faced to a medium to be read takes in the form of a single long chip. In particular, a single long and seamless sensor chip having a plurality of photoelectric conversion elements arranged thereon throughout a length of the window portion of the casing is mounted on a long supporting substrate having a length long enough to support the whole sensor chip. The sensor chip and the supporting substrate are bonded together such that transmission of stress due to external force exerted on the supporting substrate to the sensor chip is restricted.

    Abstract: A rod-shaped light guide which does not cause unevenness in color at the portion near an incident face is produced by injection-molding transparent resin such as acryl and its surfaces include a light-emitting surface, a bottom face, left and right sides and end faces. One end face opposes a light emitting unit, and light scattering patterns for scattering light incident from the end face are formed on the bottom face. The light scattering patterns are different in shape between a portion near the end face as the incident face and a portion away from the end face. The light scattering patterns formed at the portion near the incident face are composed of a large number of fine hemispherical concaves, whereas the light scattering patterns at the portion away from the incident face are composed of triangular grooves or half cylindrical grooves, and the axial direction of these triangular grooves or half cylindrical grooves is equal to coincides with the width direction (sub-scanning direction) of the bottom face on which the patterns are formed.
