Abstract
The invention provides an image scanning apparatus stabilizing a behavior of a document in scanning an image and enabling to promote image scanning accuracy. The image scanning apparatus according to the invention includes a resist roller 22 for feeding a document, a discharge roller 28 disposed in a feeding direction of the resist roller 22 for feeding the document and a first optical carriage A for scanning the image of the document in feeding the document by the resist roller 22 and the discharge roller 28. The resist roller 22 and the discharge roller 28 are respectively driven by a first motor 150 and a second motor 160. Further, when the document is charged to the discharge roller 28, document feed speed of the resist roller 22 in scanning document is made to be increased.
Claims8
An image scanning apparatus comprising:
- a first feeding roller configured to feed a document;
- a second feeding roller configured to feed the document which has been fed by the first feeding roller;
- an image scanning unit configured to scan an image of the document at a scanning position provided between the first feeding roller and the second feeding roller;
- and
- a speed controller configured to set peripheral speeds of the first feeding roller and the second feeding roller;
- wherein the speed controller sets the peripheral speed of the first feeding roller and the peripheral speed of the second feeding roller, such that a ratio of the peripheral speed of the first feeding roller to the peripheral speed of the second roller, when said first feeding roller is operated at a first peripheral speed, differs from said ratio when said first feeding roller is operated at a second peripheral speed.
An image scanning apparatus comprising:
- a first feeding configured to feed a document;
- a second feeding roller configured to feed the document which has been fed by the first feeding roller;
- an image scanning unit configured to scan an image of first and second kinds of documents at a scanning position provided between the first feeding roller and the second feeding roller;
- and
- a speed controller configured to set peripheral speeds of the first feeding roller and the second feeding roller;
- wherein the peripheral speed of the first feeding roller is set to a predetermined peripheral speed and the peripheral speed of the second feeding roller is set to a first speed when the first kind of document is fed, and
- wherein the peripheral speed of the first feeding roller is set to the predetermined peripheral speed and the peripheral speed of the second feeding roller is set to a second speed, which is different from the first speed, when the second kind of the document is fed.
