An optical path folding apparatus of the present invention receives an incident light and reflects a reflection light on a lens set. The optical path folding apparatus comprises a first portion receiving the incident light and reflecting a first light beam, a second portion receiving the first light beam and reflecting a second light beam, a third portion receiving the second light beam and reflecting a third light beam, a fourth portion receiving the third light beam and reflecting a fourth light beam, a fifth portion receiving the fourth light beam and reflecting a fifth light beam, and a sixth portion receiving the fifth light beam and reflecting a reflection light on the lens set. In a preferred embodiment, the first portion and the fifth portion are coplanar on a first mirror, while the second portion, the fourth portion and the sixth portion are coplanar on a second mirror. Light reflected from a scanned object forms an image on the CCD by means of the lens set, wherein the light is reflected six times by the optical path folding apparatus.
