Abstract: An inkjet recording apparatus includes a recording head, a wiper member, a cleaning liquid supply device, a cleaning liquid flow path, and a controller. The cleaning liquid flow path includes a vertical tubular member connected to the cleaning liquid supply device and extending upward, and a horizontal tubular member connected to an upper end of the vertical tubular member and extending in a horizontal direction. The controller extrudes a cleaning liquid in at least a part of the cleaning liquid flow path from a cleaning liquid supply port before control of a cleaning operation for wiping an ink ejection surface of the recording head, thereby performing control of an air bubble release operation of the cleaning liquid flow path.

Abstract: A drying apparatus includes a conveying unit, a heater unit, a casing, a lifting mechanism, and a closing member. The conveying unit supports and conveys the recording medium in a predetermined conveyance direction. The heater unit is disposed above the conveying unit, and blows a high temperature air to the conveyed recording medium. The casing houses the heater unit. The lifting mechanism is provided in the casing and supports the heater unit so as to be lifted and lowered. The closing member comes into contact with the heater unit when the heater unit is lowered, and separates a heating space below the heater unit from an internal space of the casing. The closing member is lifted and lowered within a predetermined range as the heater unit is lifted and lowered.

Abstract: A drying device dries a recording medium on which an image is formed, while conveying the recording medium. The drying apparatus includes a conveying member and a heating device. The conveying member supports and conveys the recording medium in a predetermined conveyance direction. The heating device heats the recording medium conveyed by the conveying member under a high temperature environment. The heating device includes a heater, a reflector and a lifting mechanism. The heater emits infrared ray. The reflector reflects the infrared ray emitted from the heater toward the recording medium. The lifting mechanism lifts and lowers the reflector relative to the heater to change a number of reflections of the infrared ray.

Abstract: The inkjet recording apparatus includes a recording head, a first conveyor belt, and an ink receiving part. The ink receiving part includes a discharge port, a liquid-absorptive rotator, and a counter member. The discharge port is placed at an end portion in a crossing direction crossing a recording-medium conveyance direction, and discharges ink received in flashing. The liquid-absorptive rotator is formed from a liquid-absorptive material and rotated around a rotating shaft extending in the crossing direction. The counter member, being in contact with the liquid-absorptive rotator, has a conveyance structure for conveying ink in the ink receiving part in a carry-out direction directed toward the discharge port along an axial direction of the rotating shaft.

Abstract: An ink jet recording apparatus includes a recording head, a wiper member, a cleaning liquid supply device, and a controller. The recording head includes an ink ejection surface having an ink ejection port from which ink is ejected. The cleaning liquid supply device includes a cleaning liquid supply surface having a cleaning liquid supply port from which cleaning liquid for wiping the ink ejection surface with the wiper member is supplied, and is located upstream of the ink ejection surface in a wiping direction. The controller controls a cleaning operation including squeezing out the cleaning liquid containing bubbles from the cleaning liquid supply port, and moving the wiper member carrying the cleaning liquid containing bubbles, in the wiping direction from a movement start position to an end position ahead of the ink ejection surface.

Abstract: A decurling device includes a first conveyance path, a second conveyance path, a first switch, a decurler, and a controller. A sheet is conveyed along the first conveyance path or the second conveyance path. The first switch switches a route of conveyance of the sheet to the first conveyance path or the second conveyance path. The sheet has a first main surface and a second main surface. The decurler is located in the second conveyance path. The decurler corrects curl of the sheet. In a situation in which a weight per unit area of the sheet is smaller than a first threshold value, the controller controls the first switch such that the sheet is conveyed along the second conveyance path.

Abstract: A drying apparatus dries a recording medium on which an image is formed, under a high temperature atmosphere while conveying the recording medium, the drying apparatus includes an endless conveying belt, and a roller. The conveying belt supports and conveys the recording medium in a predetermined conveyance direction. The conveying belt is wound around the roller. The roller includes a cylindrical roller body, and flange bodies fitted into both ends of the roller body. In a fitting region between the roller body and the flange body, a thermal expansion coefficient of an inside fitted portion is higher than a thermal expansion coefficient of an outside fitted portion.

Abstract: An inkjet recording apparatus includes a sheet conveyance portion, a pair of registration rollers, a recording portion, a plate portion, a suction roller, and an exhaust portion. The exhaust portion is disposed over an area from upstream of the recording portion to upstream of the pair of registration rollers with respect to the sheet conveyance direction and sucks air from above the conveyance belt and the plate portion in the direction away from the conveyance belt. The exhaust portion includes an exhaust hood and an exhaust fan. The exhaust fan guides the air in the exhaust hood through an air inlet into a recording potion housing and then passes the air through an exhaust outlet to discharge it via an air flow passage.
