1. An image reading apparatus comprising:
a first unit having a support surface for supporting a reading target; and a second unit mounted to the first unit and configured to be displaceable between a closed position at which the support surface is covered and an opened position at which the support surface is exposed, wherein the second unit comprises a conveyor configured to convey a sheet along a predetermined conveyance path, wherein the first unit comprises:
a first contact part to which the sheet being conveyed by the conveyor is contacted; anda first reading unit configured to:
read an image of the reading target, which is supported by the support surface, with moving along the support surface; andread an image of the sheet, which is passing through a first reading position with contacting the first contact part, while the first reading unit stops at a stop position facing the conveyance path with the first contact part being interposed therebetween, wherein the conveyor comprises:
a first conveyance roller configured to separate the sheet fed from an upstream side in a conveying direction one at a time at a first position on the conveyance path and to convey the sheet toward a downstream in a conveying direction; anda separation piece configured to separate the sheet one at a time in cooperation with the first conveyance roller, and wherein the first conveyance roller and the separation piece and the first reading unit stopped at the stop position are arranged at positions at which an arrangement range of the first conveyance roller and the separation piece and an arrangement range of the first reading unit overlap with each other with respect to a direction parallel with the support surface and orthogonal to an axis line becoming a rotation center of the first conveyance roller, as seen from a direction parallel with the axis line becoming the rotation center of the first conveyance roller. |
