Image scanning device

摘要

An image scanning device includes a scanning unit configured to scan, at a scanning position, an image of a document, a first discharge portion, a second discharge portion, a conveying unit configured to selectively convey the document along a first conveying path from the scanning position to the first discharge portion, and along a second conveying path from the scanning position to the second discharge portion, a driving unit configured to generate a driving force for driving the conveying unit, and a path switching unit configured to receive the driving force generated by the driving unit such that the path switching unit moves between a first position for guiding the document toward the first discharge portion, and a second position for guiding the document toward the second discharge portion.

1. An image scanning device comprising:
a scanning unit configured to scan an image of a document; a conveying unit configured to convey the document scanned by the scanning unit; a movable member; a link mechanism coupled to the movable member; a motor configured to generate a driving force and rotate in a first direction and a second direction opposite to the first direction; and a transmitting mechanism configured to transmit the driving force from the motor to the conveying unit when the motor rotates in the first direction and to transmit the driving force from the motor to the link mechanism when the motor rotates in the second direction, wherein the link mechanism links the transmitting mechanism and the movable member and is configured to move the movable member from a first position to a second position and from the second position to the first position when the motor rotates in the second direction.
