Abstract
In an image reading device, an object intrusion detecting device includes a rod-like member disposed along a widthwise direction of a document tray and detects that the rod-like member has been pushed up to a predetermined position in a height direction. When the object intrusion detecting device detects that the rod-like member has been pushed up to the predetermined abnormal position in the height direction, the controller determines that an object intrusion has occurred.
