A recording device includes a main body including a recording unit configured to perform recording on a medium pulled out from a roll body including the medium wound around a core member, and a leg part configured to support the main body from an installation surface on which the main body is installed. The leg part includes contact parts configured to make contact with the installation surface at respective positions different from each other. The contact parts include three reference contact parts located on a same plane and one movable contact part. The movable contact part is coupled with the main body through an elastic member that is elastically deformable in a direction that intersects the plane.

Recording device

A recording apparatus includes a housing having a feeding port through which a medium is introduced into the housing, a feeding tray for supporting the medium fed through the feeding port, and a rotary damper configured to generate torque, in which the feeding tray includes a rotation shaft about which the feeding tray is rotatable, relative to the housing, between a close position at which the feeding tray holds the feeding port in a close state and an open position at which the feeding tray holds the feeding port in an open state, and the rotation shaft and the rotary damper are interlocked with each other.

Recording apparatus

A recessed portion is a portion that is provided to an end of a platen in an X direction and is recessed from the supporting surface of the platen. A discharge portion discharges the ink in the recessed portion along a +Y direction. A width of the discharge portion in an X direction is smaller than a width of the recessed portion in the X direction, and a position of the discharge portion in the X direction is arranged on an inner side with respect to a position of an edge of the roll paper. An end side of the discharge path, which is positioned on an inner side of the roll paper in the X direction, is arranged continuously to an end side of the recessed portion, which is positioned on the inner side of the roll paper, on an extension line of the end side.

A printer includes a recording unit, a support portion, a negative pressure chamber, a first sectioned chamber, a second sectioned chamber, a first suction port, and a second suction port. The support portion includes a support face configured to support roller paper. The negative pressure chamber is disposed at an opposite side of the support portion from the recording unit side. The first and the second sectioned chamber include a first and a second bottom surface. The first and the second suction port cause an outside space and the negative pressure chamber to communicate with each other. An opening area of the second suction port is smaller than an opening area of a first suction portion. The second suction port disposed most upstream in the first sectioned chamber is disposed upstream, in the transport direction, of the first suction port disposed most upstream in the second sectioned chamber.

A printer includes a transport unit, a recording unit, a cutter unit, and a control unit. The transport unit is capable of transporting two pieces of roll paper in parallel. The cutter unit is movable in a width direction intersecting a transport direction, and is capable of cutting the two pieces of roll paper. The cutter unit is capable of cutting roll paper PR in both a forward path and a return path of the movement in a width direction. The control unit is capable of setting a standby position of the cutter unit to a position between the two pieces of roll paper.

Recording device and control method for recording device

A main frame extending in a first direction, a side frames extending in a second direction that intersects with the first direction, the side frames being fixed to the main frame, and a supported member extending in the first direction and supported by the side frame are included, wherein the side frame includes a first frame portion extending in the second direction and a second frame portion extending from the first frame portion in the first direction, the second frame portion being in surface contact with the main frame, and in plan view from the second direction, an abutting portion that abuts the main frame is provided at the first frame portion and a fixing portion is provided at the second frame portion, the fixing portion being fixed to the main frame at a position where the second frame portion overlaps with the first frame portion.

Frame coupling structure and recording device

A recording apparatus includes a recording head configured to perform recording on a recording medium being conveyed in a conveyance direction, a carriage in which the recording head is mounted, the carriage being configured to perform scanning in a scanning direction that intersects the conveyance direction, and a guide member including a flat surface configured to guide the carriage in the scanning direction. The carriage includes a sliding part configured to slide in contact with the guide member, an impregnated member impregnated with lubricant on at least one side of the sliding part in the scanning direction, and a pressure member configured to press the impregnated member to the guide member side from a surface on a side opposite to the guide member with respect to the impregnated member.

A recording apparatus includes a recording unit configured to perform recording on a medium, a sheet ejection unit configured to eject the medium after the recording, a loading unit configured to load the ejected medium, a first contact member configured to make contact with a position of an upstream end of the medium in an ejection direction and operate in conjunction with a displacement of a load amount of the medium, a second contact member configured to make contact with a downstream position of the medium in the ejection direction with respect to the first contact member and operate in conjunction with the displacement of the load amount of the medium, one detection auxiliary member configured to make a displacement in conjunction with a displacement of the first contact member and the second contact member, and a detection unit configured to detect the displacement of the detection auxiliary member.

Recording apparatus and medium housing apparatus

A recording device includes a recording head configured to discharge a liquid as a droplet, a carriage on which the recording head is mounted, a driving unit that causes the carriage to reciprocate along a guide shaft, and a control board on which a semiconductor element is mounted. In a state in which the carriage is positioned at one end of the guide shaft, the control board is disposed below the carriage.

A transport device unwinds a medium from a roll body to which a shaft member is mounted and transports the medium.
