A guiding mechanism is provided for use in an image capturing device. The image capturing device includes a housing, a scanning module movably installed inside the housing for scanning documents, and a driving module for driving the scanning module. The guiding mechanism includes a guide shaft for supporting the scanning module, and at least a sleeve connected to the scanning module and movably installed on the guide shaft. The sleeve includes an inner side and at least two protrusions protruding over the inner side that are respectively positioned on two opposite sides of a line of gravity of the sleeve. The sleeve contacts the guide shaft along the protrusions. When the driving module drives the scanning module to move along the guide shaft, the scanning module is supported by the guide shaft via the at least two protrusions of the sleeve.
