A transport device includes a transporting belt including an outer peripheral surface where a medium is placeable, the transporting belt being configured to transport the medium, a wiper blade including a tip portion configured to come into contact with the outer peripheral surface, and a base end portion located on an opposite side of the tip portion in an intersecting direction intersecting with the outer peripheral surface, the wiper blade being configured to wipe the outer peripheral surface, a contact portion made of resin and configured to support the base end portion by coming into contact with the base end portion, and a plurality of pressing units provided side by side in a width direction of the transporting belt, the plurality of pressing units being configured to press the base end portion via the contact portion.

Transport device and liquid ejecting device

A transport device includes a transport belt having a support surface configured to support a medium, a cleaning roller including an absorbent member configured to absorb cleaning liquid, and configured to clean the support surface as the absorbent member comes into contact with the support surface, a supply unit configured to supply the cleaning liquid to the cleaning roller, and a squeeze member to squeeze the absorbent member as the cleaning roller rotates in a state in which the squeeze member is in contact with the absorbent member. The supply unit is configured to be switched between a supply state in which the cleaning liquid is supplied to the cleaning roller and a non-supply state in which the cleaning liquid is not supplied to the cleaning roller, and the squeeze member squeezes the absorbent member while the supply unit is in the non-supply state.

Transport device and recording device

A conveying unit conveys a medium by moving a glue belt. The conveying unit includes a vapor application unit and a cleaning unit. The vapor application unit applies heated vapor to a front surface of the glue belt separated from the medium. The cleaning unit cleans the front surface to which the vapor is applied by the vapor application unit.

Conveying apparatus and printing apparatus

A transport device includes a transporting belt having a support face configured to support a medium and configured to transport the medium, a device main body in which the transporting belt is provided, and a cleaning unit configured to clean the support face with a liquid. The cleaning unit includes a storage unit in which the liquid is stored, a flow path member through which the liquid discharged from the storage unit and returned to the storage unit passes, and a filter unit detachably provided to the flow path member. Here, the filter unit is configured to be pulled out in a direction away from the device main body.

Provided are a transporting belt including a support face configured to support a medium, the transporting belt being configured to transport the medium; a wiper configured to wipe the support face; an attachment portion to which the wiper is attached; and a holding portion configured to switch between a pressing state in which the wiper is pressed against the attachment portion and a release state in which the pressure of the wiper against the attachment portion is released, in which the wiper includes a base portion attached to the attachment portion, either one of the base portion and the attachment portion includes at least one pin, and the other one includes a hole through which the at least one pine is inserted.

The printing apparatus includes: a printing unit configured to perform printing on a fabric based on print data, a transporting belt having a support surface for supporting the fabric and configured to transport the fabric, a cleaning unit configured to clean the support surface with a cleaning liquid, a temperature change unit configured to change a temperature of the cleaning liquid, and a device control unit configured to control the temperature change unit based on at least one of attribute information of the fabric, a position of the fabric on the support surface, and the print data.

Printing apparatus

A recording device includes a recording unit configured to perform recording on a medium, a transporting belt configured to transport the medium, a wiper configured to wipe an outer circumferential surface of the transporting belt by coming into contact with the outer circumferential surface, a holding portion configured to hold the wiper, a support portion configured to support the holding portion such that the wiper is movable toward the outer circumferential surface, an elastic member configured to bias the holding portion such that the wiper comes into contact with the outer circumferential surface while the holding portion is supported movably by the support portion, and a fixing portion configured to fix the holding portion to the support portion.

Recording device

A transport device includes a transport belt having a support surface configured to support a medium, and configured to transport the medium supported by the support surface, a cleaning roller including an absorbent member configured to absorb cleaning liquid, and configured to clean the support surface as the absorbent member comes into contact with the support surface, a supply unit configured to supply the cleaning liquid to the cleaning roller, and a spray unit configured to spray gas to the support surface cleaned by the cleaning roller. The spray unit is configured to spray the gas to the cleaning roller.
