Abstract: An ink-jet recording apparatus of the present disclosure includes a recording portion, a cap unit, a wipe unit, and a lid member. The recording portion has a recording head. The cap unit is capable of reciprocating between a first position directly below the recording portion and a second position that is retracted in a horizontal direction from the first position, and has a cap portion that caps the recording head when at the first position. The wipe unit performs a recovery process with respect to the recording head. At the second position, the lid member is disposed above the cap unit and comes into tight contact with the cap portion.

Abstract: An inkjet recording device includes a recording head section, a capping unit, a capping movement mechanism, and a capping support section. The recording head section forms an image with ink on paper. The capping unit includes a cap that is contactable to the recording head section. The capping movement mechanism moves the capping unit. The capping support section supports the capping unit. The capping movement mechanism includes a rail section which guides the capping unit in a Y axial direction between standby and retracted positions. The capping support section includes a rail section which guides the capping unit in an X axial direction between the standby position and a detachable position.

Abstract: A sheet feed cassette includes an end cursor, a pair of gears, and a pair of racks. The end cursor regulates a rear end position of stored paper sheets in the sheet feed direction. The end cursor is slidable in the conveyance direction. The pair of gears are rotatably provided on a lower surface of a base portion of the end cursor and have the same module and the same number of teeth. The pair of racks are provided on a bottom surface of a cassette main body in parallel with each other along a slide direction of the end cursor. The pair of racks respectively mesh with the pair of gears. This makes it possible to prevent a defect such as skewing, a folded edge, or a wrinkle from occurring, allowing the end cursor to slide smoothly with excellent operability.

Abstract: An image forming apparatus includes an image forming apparatus body, a document reading unit, a document cover, an image reading unit, an image forming unit, a reading-unit-supporting shaft, and a cover-supporting shaft. The document reading unit is configured to turn to openably/closably cover an upper portion of the image forming apparatus body. The document cover is configured to turn to openably/closably cover a document loading surface at a top surface of the document reading unit. The image forming unit is housed in the image forming apparatus body, the image forming unit being configured to form an image on a paper sheet based on the image data. The reading-unit-supporting shaft is configured to pivotably support the document reading unit. The cover-supporting shaft is configured to pivotably support the document cover. Both the reading-unit-supporting shaft and the cover-supporting shaft are mounted to the image forming apparatus body.

Abstract: A transfer device includes a plurality of transfer members and a switch section. The switch section, in a first state, causes the transfer members to be pressed against a plurality of image bearing members. The switch section, in a second state, causes a transfer member opposed to a first image bearing member to be pressed against the first image bearing member, and causes a transfer member opposed to a second image bearing member to be separated from the second image bearing member. In the first state, toner images of different colors are transferred from the image bearing members to an intermediate transfer belt and superimposed together. In the second state, a single-color toner image is transferred from the first image bearing member to the intermediate transfer belt. The switch section changes a pressing force of the transfer member to the first image bearing member between the first and second states.

Abstract: The sheet feeding device includes a housing, first and second feeding paths, and first and second covers. The first feeding path extends in a vertical direction within the housing. The second feeding path extends in the vertical direction within the housing, and a lower end thereof is connected to an upper end of the first feeding path. The first cover exposes, in an open state, the first feeding path outside of the housing. The second cover exposes, in an open state, the second feeding path outside of the housing. When both the first cover and the second cover are opened, the first cover and the second cover are respectively in the open state relative to the housing in a mode where a second opening angle of the second cover relative to the housing is smaller than a first opening angle of the first cover relative to the housing.
