Abstract
A support structure for supporting reflectors on a half rate carriage in an image reader has an angle between a reflecting surface of a second reflector and an optical path from a first reflector of a full rate carriage to the second reflector is greater than 45° and less than 90°, for example about 53°, and an angle between the reflecting surface of the second reflector and a reflector of a third reflector is 90°. Thus, the degree of overlaying of the full rate carriage with the half rate carriage is increased and the image reader is miniaturized.
