Abstract
A scanning apparatus with heat dissipating ability includes a housing having an opening formed thereon. A cover having a slit, a heating dissipating portion, and supporting portion connected to the heat dissipating portion covers the opening, wherein the supporting portion extends from an edge of the slit into the housing. A light emitting elements is fixed on the supporting portion, for emitting a scanning light through the slit, and the scanning light is reflected as an image light by a document. The image light is converted to image data by an image scanning module. The heat dissipating portion is made of a thermal conductive material to exchange heat with the air, so that heat generated by the light emitting elements is transferred to the heat dissipating portion and the heat is dissipated to the air, the work temperature of the light emitting elements is controlled at an optimal temperature.
