<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a light guide having high condensing efficiency with respect to the direction (sub-scanning direction) perpendicular to the direction of arrangement of a light source (main scanning direction) and to provide an illumination device and an image reading apparatus. <P>SOLUTION: The light guide has first and second light guide parts in front and rear of a constricted part. The first light guide has first and second side parts. The second light guide part has a reflection condensing part and third and fourth side parts extending from the constricted part to divert the first and second side parts outward. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
