Abstract
An optical path device composed of four pieces of reflected mirrors is disclosed. In the optical path device, after being reflected many times between a set of two parallel mirrors, an incident light not perpendicular to the surface of the original document is turned by an optical path turning mirror to enter the parallel mirrors set again and reflected many times, and then the incident light is reflected into a lens and is imaged on a charge coupled device (CCD). The optical path device can limit the optical path between the parallel mirrors set effectively, thereby decreasing the volume of a chassis.
