Abstract:
A conveyor device includes a support portion in which a through hole is formed and which is configured to support a to-be-conveyed medium; a negative pressure chamber configured to cause negative pressure to act on the to-be-conveyed medium through the through hole to suck the to-be-conveyed medium to the support portion; and a conveyance section configured to convey the to-be-conveyed medium sucked to the support portion. The negative pressure chamber includes a wall in which a communication hole to communicate the negative pressure chamber with the air is formed. The conveyor device further includes a shutter configured to slide on the wall of the negative pressure chamber to open/close the communication hole.
