Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A lighting unit (2) is provided with: LED arrays (220) in which light-emitting elements are positioned in an array in a main scanning direction; cylindrical parabolic mirrors (20) that project light emitted from the LED arrays (220) on an illumination region of an illuminated item; and a housing that houses or holds the LED arrays (220) and the cylindrical parabolic mirrors (20). Each cylindrical parabolic mirror (20) forms a shape in which a cylindrical paraboloid having curvature with respect to a sub-scanning direction (12) has been clipped by an axial plane that is perpendicular to the vertex of the cylindrical paraboloid in the main scanning direction (11). The LED arrays (220) are positioned so as to include the focal position of the cylindrical paraboloid in the light-emitting region, the central axis in the light-emitting direction being perpendicular to the axial plane.
