A table device and a printing apparatus are provided. The table device includes a X-shaped link member in which two long members are turnably coupled in an X-shape, an expansion/contraction mechanism that expands/contracts with at least a pair of X-shaped link members arranged facing each other, a table that is disposed on one end side of the expansion/contraction mechanism and moves in the expansion/contraction direction of the expansion/contraction mechanism, a support member disposed on the other end side of the expansion/contraction mechanism, a coupling member that couples the opposing long members of the long members forming the expansion/contraction mechanism and moves with the expansion/contraction of the expansion/contraction mechanism, and a regulating member that regulates a fluctuation of the coupling member that moves when the expansion/contraction mechanism expands/contracts.

Table device and printing apparatus

A maintenance unit includes a fixed-side cover in which multiple first openings are formed and a movable-side cover in which multiple second openings are formed. A moving mechanism slides the movable-side cover with respect to the fixed-side cover in a Y direction between a closed position where the second opening is disposed between multiple first openings in the Y direction and the movable-side cover closes the first openings, and an open position where the first opening and the second opening adjacent to each other at the closed position are overlapped in the vertical direction and an entire of multiple ink receiving portions are exposed.

Maintenance unit and inkjet printer

To provide a lens driving apparatus that drives a lens in its optical axis-direction without inclining it, and a lens driving apparatus that drives a bobbin in the optical axis-direction smoothly without increasing the frictional force between a ball arranged between the bobbin and a cover, and the bobbin and cover while maintaining high driving power. The lens driving apparatus comprises the polygonal cylindrical bobbin that houses the lens, the box-shaped cover that receives the bobbin, a drive unit that moves the bobbin in the optical axis-direction of the lens, and a support unit that supports the bobbin.
