Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A medium feeding device includes a housing, a medium feeding portion that is provided in an inner portion of the housing and delivers sheets of paper, a medium mounting member on which a medium is mounted, and a wireless communication portion that performs wireless communication with another communication terminal, in which the wireless communication portion is provided in the medium mounting member.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A medium feeding device comprising: a housing; a medium mounting portion on which a medium is mounted; a medium feeding portion that is attached to an inner portion of the housing and feeds the medium that is mounted on the medium mounting portion; and a wireless communication substrate that is configured to perform wireless communication with another communication terminal, wherein the wireless communication substrate is attached to the medium mounting portion provided with a pair of edge guides. 2. An image reading apparatus comprising: a reading portion that reads a medium; and the medium feeding device according to claim 1 , which feeds the medium toward the reading portion. 3. The image reading apparatus according to claim 2 , further comprising: a near field communication portion as the wireless communication portion. 4. The image reading apparatus according to claim 2 , further comprising: a Wi-Fi module as the wireless communication portion. 5. A medium feeding device comprising: a housing; a medium mounting portion on which a medium is mounted; a medium feeding portion that is attached to an inner portion of the housing and feeds the medium that is mounted on the medium mounting; and a wireless communication substrate that is configured to perform wireless communication with another communication terminal, wherein the wireless communication substrate is attached to the medium mounting member, wherein the medium mounting member is provided with a pair of edge guides that guides both side edges of the medium in a width direction that intersects a feeding direction, and wherein the wireless communication portion is provided inside a guiding region of the edge guides in the feeding direction, the guiding region being between the pair of edge guides in the width direction. 6. The medium feeding device according to claim 5 , wherein either one of the edge guides is provided with a sliding portion that is capable of sliding on a mounting surface of the medium mounting member, on an inner side of the corresponding edge guide, and wherein the wireless communication portion is provided in the sliding portion.
