Abstract:
An image reading apparatus includes a medium support section that supports a medium before feeding, a reading section that reads the medium that feeds from the medium support section, a transport roller that is disposed upstream of the reading section and transports the medium to the reading section, and a load applying device that applies a load against rotation of the transport roller. The transport roller is disposed on a rotating shaft that extends in a medium width direction that intersects the medium transport direction, and the load applying device imparts the load by pressing a transport roller driving gear that is disposed at one end of the rotating shaft in a direction from the one end of the rotating shaft to the other end thereof.

Claim (Index 5):
The image reading apparatus according to  claim 4 , further comprising:\n a gear set that transmits power from a drive source to the transport roller driving gear; and a transport path forming unit that supports the gear set on one side of the transport path forming unit in the medium width direction, wherein the transport path forming unit has a recess formed on the one side, and at least a portion of the gear set is present in the recess.
