Image reading apparatus
First Claim
1. An image reading apparatus, comprising:
- a conveyor roller configured to come in contact with a sheet-like medium and to convey the contacted medium in a conveyance direction in which the medium is conveyed;
an image pickup device configured to pick up an image of the conveyed medium;
a control device configured to control the conveyor roller and the image pickup device;
an apparatus main unit that accommodates the conveyor roller, the image pickup device, and the control device; and
a state detecting device configured to detect whether the apparatus main unit is in a first state in which the apparatus main unit is stationary or in a second state in which the apparatus main unit is non-stationary, whereinthe control device is configured to change contents of the control of at least the conveyor roller based on a result of the detection by the state detecting device,the control device is configured to cause the conveyor roller to rotate before starting the picking up of an image of the conveyed medium by the image pickup device to perform pre-pull-in control of causing the conveyor roller to hold a leading end in the conveyance direction of the medium inserted into the apparatus main unit, andthe control device is configured to make a handheld pre-rotation speed that is a rotation speed of the conveyor roller in the pre-pull-in control in the second state of the apparatus main unit smaller than a desktop pre-rotation speed that is a rotation speed of the conveyor roller in the pre-pull-in control in the first state of the apparatus main unit.

Abstract
An image reading apparatus includes: a conveyor roller configured to come in contact with a sheet-like medium and to convey the contacted medium in a conveyance direction in which the medium is conveyed; an image pickup device configured to pick up an image of the conveyed medium; a control device configured to control the conveyor roller and the image pickup device; an apparatus main unit that accommodates the conveyor roller, the image pickup device, and the control device; and a state detecting device configured to detect whether the apparatus main unit is in a stationary state in which the apparatus main unit is stationary or in a non-stationary state in which the apparatus main unit is not stationary, wherein the control device is configured to change contents of the control of at least the conveyor roller based on a result of the detection by the state detecting device.

6. An image reading apparatus, comprising;
-
a conveyor roller configured to come in contact with a sheet-like medium and to convey the contacted medium in a conveyance direction in which the medium is conveyed; an image pickup device configured to pick up an image of the conveyed medium; a control device configured to control the conveyor roller and the image pickup device; an apparatus main unit that accommodates the conveyor roller, the image pickup device, and the control device; a state detecting device configured to detect whether the apparatus main unit is in a first state in which the apparatus main unit is stationary or in a second state in which the apparatus main unit is non-stationary, wherein the control device is configured to change contents of the control of at least the conveyor roller based on a result of the detection by the state detecting device; an image processing unit configured to generate picked-up image data corresponding to the image of the conveyed medium picked up by the image pickup device; a storage unit configured to store the picked-up image data, wherein the control device is configured to control the image processing unit and the storage unit, and the control device is configured to cause the generated picked-up image data to be stored in the storage unit when the control device determines that the apparatus main unit is in the second state based on the result of the detection by the state detecting device; and a communication device configured to be communicable with an external electronic device, wherein if the communication device is not communicable with the external electronic device, the control device causes the generated picked-up image data to be stored in the storage unit when the control device determines that the apparatus main unit is in the second state, and if the communication device becomes communicable with the external electronic device after the control device determines that the apparatus main unit has changed from the second state to the first state, the control device causes the communication device to output the stored picked-up image data to the electronic device.
