A processing apparatus includes a processing unit and a medium reception unit. The medium reception unit includes a flexible sheet-shaped reception member, a turning shaft coupled to one end of the reception member, an operation part coupled to the other end of the reception member, a pair of supporting parts configured to support both ends of the operation part, a rack provided to supporting parts, and a turning shaft gear configured to the rack. The reception member is wound around the turning shaft and housed inside the housing when the operation part approaches the turning shaft. The reception member is drawn out from the turning shaft to hang downward such that the medium is receivable when the operation part is separated from the turning shaft. A non-linkage structure in which the movement of the operation part and the turning of the turning shaft are temporarily not linked is provided.

Processing apparatus and recording apparatus

A recording device includes a recording unit, a support portion for supporting a recording medium, a transport path for transporting the recording medium, a recording medium holding unit for holding a roll body and supplying the recording medium, and a frame for holding thereof, wherein the frame includes a lower frame extending along an X direction and a Y direction, a pair of side frames extending along a Z direction and the Y direction, each including a lower end fixed to the lower frame and upright in the Z direction, and disposed at a predetermined interval in the X direction, and a base frame held between the pare of side frames and including four wall surfaces extending in the X direction, and functional components related to recording of the recording unit are disposed inside the four wall surfaces.

Recording device

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.

In a medium supply device, a receiving portion includes a support portion configured to rotatably support a spindle, and a drive gear meshing with a driven gear provided at the spindle to rotate the spindle, and a displacement member includes a pivoting shaft configured to pivot between an advanced position where the spindle is covered and a retracted position where the spindle is exposed, an abutting portion abutting the spindle when the spindle is installed at the receiving portion, the abutting portion being configured to cause the displacement member to pivot to the advanced position, an opposing portion abutting, at the advanced position, an outer peripheral surface of the spindle installed at the receiving portion, a cover portion configured to cover the driven gear, and a grounding member contacting the spindle, thereby coupling to a ground potential.

Medium supply device and recording device

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. The transport device includes an accommodation portion configured to accommodate the roll body, a main body portion to which the accommodation portion is mounted, and a roller pair configured to nip the medium. The accommodation portion and the main body portion are relatively movable. The main body portion includes a rack configured to engage with a gear of the shaft member. The rack is engaged with the gear when the accommodation portion moves relative to the main body portion to be pulled out of the main body portion.

Transport device and recording device

Provided are a loading portion configured to load a medium discharged from a discharging portion, and a plurality of pressing portions provided downstream of the discharging portion in a discharging direction of the medium, and configured to press the medium loaded on the loading portion. The loading portion includes a first loading portion including a downward sloped surface sloping downward in the discharging direction, and also includes a second loading portion including an upward sloped surface sloping upward in the discharging direction. The downward sloped surface and the upward sloped surface form a discharging path through which the medium is discharged. The plurality of pressing portions includes a first pressing portion configured to press the medium loaded on the first loading portion, and also includes a second pressing portion configured to press the medium loaded on the second loading portion.

Medium loading device

A recording device includes a leg unit that supports a base frame of a main body from a side of an installation surface. The leg unit includes four contact units that can contact the installation surface at positions different from each other, and the four contact units are constituted by three reference contact units that form a reference plane for which a relative position with respect to the base frame is defined, and one movable contact unit that can adjust a position in a height direction, which is a direction orthogonal to the reference plane.

Printing workroom interior

Provided is a multi-function printer including a driving roller provided in a read transport path including a paper feeding port and a paper discharging port, the driving roller being configured to transport paper, another driving roller provided in a transport path, the other driving roller being configured to transport paper, a reading unit configured to read a surface of the paper transported by the driving roller, a printing unit configured to perform printing onto the paper being transported by the other driving roller, a read controller configured to control the driving roller and the reading unit, and a print controller configured to control the other driving roller and the printing unit.
