Abstract
An inkjet recording apparatus having a plurality of inkjet heads arranged along a paper conveyance line is disclosed, which is capable of collecting an ink mist efficiently without making the inkjet heads intricate in makeup. To this end, an air suction and blast unit is disposed in a space between the upstream and downstream inkjet heads which are successive and includes a housing, an air suction port provided at one side of the housing, an air blast nozzle provided at the other side of the housing, a fan provided between the air suction port and the air blast nozzle in the housing for creating an air flow flowing from the air suction port to the air blast nozzle and a mist filter in the housing for catching an ink mist in the air flow created by the fan, wherein the air suction port is opposed from a downstream side to a gap between an under surface of the upstream inkjet head and the paper conveyance line while the air blast nozzle is opposed from an upstream side to a gap between the downstream inkjet head and the paper conveyance line.
