Image reading apparatus

An image reading apparatus, comprising:

• a reading unit configured to read an image on a medium;
• a medium placement unit on which the medium is placed;
• a feeding roller configured to feed the medium placed on the medium placement unit in a feeding direction;
• an auxiliary feeding roller being provided upstream of the feeding roller in the feeding direction and being configured to feed the medium with the feeding roller;
• a first displacement member configured to be displaced between a first non-contact position and a first contact position, the first non-contact position being a position at which the medium placed on the medium placement unit and the feeding roller do not contact with each other in a feeding standby state in which the feeding roller and the auxiliary feeding roller stand by for feeding of the medium, the first contact position being a position at which the medium placed on the medium placement unit and the feeding roller contact with each other in a feeding state in which the feeding roller and the auxiliary feeding roller feed the medium;
• and
• a second displacement member configured to be displaced between a second non-contact position and a second contact position, the second non-contact position being a position at which the medium placed on the medium placement unit and the auxiliary feeding roller do not contact with each other in the feeding standby state, the first contact position being a position at which the medium placed on the medium placement unit and the auxiliary feeding roller contact with each other in the feeding state, wherein
• the second displacement member is displaced from the second non-contact position to the second contact position as the first displacement member is displaced from the first non-contact position to the first contact position, and
• the second displacement member is displaced from the second contact position to the second non-contact position as the first displacement member is displaced from the first contact position to the first non-contact position.
