A liquid discharge apparatus includes a liquid discharge head configured to discharge liquid. The liquid discharge apparatus includes a reservoir configured to store liquid to be supplied to the liquid discharge head. The reservoir is provided at a position lower than the liquid discharge head. The liquid discharge apparatus includes a supply flow path configured to communicate with the liquid discharge head and the reservoir. The supply flow path is provided with a joint detachable from the liquid discharge head. The liquid discharge apparatus includes a retainer configured to retain the joint detached from the liquid discharge head. The joint has a coupler to be coupled to the liquid discharge head. The retainer is configured to retain the joint with the coupler facing up.

Liquid discharge apparatus

A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a transport unit that transports a medium along a transport path, a liquid ejecting head that performs recording on the transported medium by ejecting liquid from a nozzle formed at a nozzle surface, a mounting portion on which a liquid storage portion for storing the liquid supplied to the liquid ejecting head is mounted, and a first discharge port that delivers the medium on which the recording is performed toward a media processing apparatus that performs processing on the medium, in which the mounting portion is disposed at a position higher than the nozzle surface, and a first transport path which is a portion of the transport path from a position corresponding to the liquid ejecting head to the first discharge port passes above the mounting portion.

Liquid ejecting apparatus and recording system

A liquid ejection apparatus includes a liquid ejection head that is detachably attached and ejects a liquid, and a control section that is configured to transmit a delivery request for a new liquid ejection head to a server apparatus via a network.

Liquid ejection apparatus and delivery system for liquid ejection head

A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a liquid ejecting head that ejects liquid and an attachment portion to which a liquid container that stores the liquid supplied to the liquid ejecting head is detachably attached. The attachment portion includes a liquid inlet portion that is coupled to a liquid outlet provided in the liquid container, and an urging mechanism that urges the liquid container in a direction opposite to an attaching direction in which the liquid container is attached to the attachment portion. The urging mechanism includes an elastic member that is in close contact with the liquid container attached to the attachment portion and that is provided below the liquid inlet portion in a direction of gravity.

Liquid ejecting apparatus

A liquid ejecting apparatus including a transporting portion that transports a medium along a transport path, a liquid ejecting head that performs recording by ejecting, through a nozzle, a liquid onto the medium that is being transported, a mounting portion in which a liquid storage portion that stores the liquid supplied to the liquid ejecting head is mounted, and a heating portion that heats the medium on which the recording has been performed. The transport path includes an upper path positioned above the mounting portion in a vertical direction. After transporting and passing the medium, on which the recording has been performed, through the upper path, the transporting portion discharges the medium through a discharge port. The heating portion is provided above the mounting portion in the vertical direction and heats the medium transported through the upper path.

A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a liquid ejecting head configured to eject a liquid, a liquid supply flow path configured to supply the liquid from a liquid container containing the liquid to the liquid ejecting head, a pressurizing portion pressurizing an inside of the liquid supply flow path, and an solenoid valve which is provided in the liquid supply flow path and which opens the liquid supply flow path during energization and closes the liquid supply flow path during de-energization, in which open and closed states of the solenoid valve are forcibly switched in accordance with a pressure change by the pressurizing portion.

A bottle set includes a bottle and a lid member. The bottle has an ink container, a nozzle and a joint portion integrally formed with the nozzle and having a thread configured to engage the nozzle with the ink container. The lid member is attachable to and detachable from the bottle. An outflow port is formed in the nozzle. The outflow port is configured such that the ink in the ink container flows out from the outflow port. The lid member has a tubular barrel, a top plate that closes a barrel end of the tubular barrel, and a plug projecting from the top plate toward the nozzle. A distance from the barrel end of the tubular barrel to a distal end of the plug being shorter than a distance from a nozzle end of the nozzle to the joint portion.

Bottle set

A liquid ejecting apparatus includes: an ejection portion that ejects liquid onto a medium; a waste liquid container having a container that is configured to store a waste liquid discharged from the ejection portion; a housing that houses the ejection portion; and a humidity adjustment portion that adjusts humidity inside the housing. The waste liquid container is configured to store moisture discharged from the humidity adjustment portion.

A method for manufacturing a refilled cartridge for performing refilling of printing material after use of a cartridge is provided. The cartridge includes a first case including a recess having a bottom surface and an opening, a flexible portion attached to the opening, a second case covering the open surface of the first case, a pressure receiving portion contacting the flexible portion, a chamber of variable capacity and a biasing member that generates negative pressure inside the chamber The printing material is refilled into the chamber so that two or more points across the biasing member on the pressure receiving portion do not contact the second case after refilling of the printing material is completed.

Refilled cartridge and method for manufacturing refilled cartridge

A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a liquid ejecting portion configured to eject a liquid, a liquid supply flow path of which a downstream end portion is attachably/detachably connected to the liquid ejecting portion and through which the liquid is supplied from a liquid accommodating portion that accommodates the liquid to the liquid ejecting portion, an opening/closing valve capable of opening and closing the liquid supply flow path, an atmosphere communication path connected to the liquid supply flow path on a downstream side of the opening/closing valve, an atmosphere release valve capable of opening and closing the atmosphere communication path, a suction mechanism capable of sucking the liquid in the liquid ejecting portion, and a control device configured to control operations of the opening/closing valve, the atmosphere release valve, and the suction mechanism.

Liquid ejecting apparatus and method of replacing liquid ejecting head

A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a liquid ejecting head which performs a printing by ejecting liquid onto a medium from a nozzle, a wiping portion which wipes the liquid ejecting head by moving relative to the liquid ejecting head, a maintenance unit which performs a maintenance to forcibly discharge the liquid from the nozzle, and a preprocessing device which performs a preprocessing on the medium before the printing is performed, in which when the wiping portion and the liquid ejecting head are separated from each other in the wiping not accompanying the maintenance, the wiping portion is displaced in a direction away from the preprocessing device.

While there are various methods for acquiring biological information based on pulse waveforms, none of the methods have been implemented in a biological information reading device that can be constantly operated stably. Provided is a biological information reading device which has achieved high accuracy by removing disturbance components from a pulse signal acquired by means of a multi-axis pressure sensor or a plurality of single-axis pressure sensors, and which can be attached to an examinee at all times for continuous observation taking advantage of the small and light-weight feature of the pressure sensors.
