The axle core of rodmeter 111 around axle 501 together with axle 501 rotates along the clockwise direction in Fig. 6, therefore, by the front end that makes the recording medium inserted from the rear side of printer 100 reliably with rodmeter 111 to touching, thus axle 501 can be made reliably to rotate.Thereby, it is possible to reliably detect the recording medium inserted from the rear side of printer 100.
By making angle X be greater than angle Y, that is, by making angle Y be less than angle X, the front end of the recording medium that the front face side from printer 100 can be inserted guides to detection position swimmingly.Thereby, it is possible to make axle 501 reliably rotate.Thus, even if when recording medium inserts from the front face side of printer 100, also can reliably detect this recording medium.
As described above, projection arranges two to 402 in the mode corresponding respectively to each rodmeter 111 (the rodmeter 111a of a side and the rodmeter 111b of the opposing party).Therefore, projection is in 402, and the projection of a side opposed with the rodmeter 111a of the side projection to the position ratio of 402a the opposing party opposed with the rodmeter 111b of the opposing party is arranged the upstream side of the position of 402b by the throughput direction of recording medium.
Fig. 7, Fig. 8 and Fig. 9 are the key diagrams of the detection action representing recording medium.In Fig. 7, Fig. 8 and Fig. 9, illustrate respectively rodmeter 111 and the projection corresponding with this rodmeter 111 to 402 the state observed from side (right side from the state faced by front face side and printer 100).
As shown in Fig. 7, Fig. 8 and Fig. 9, when observing rodmeter 111 from side, the state that each rodmeter 111 staggers in front and back along throughput direction with the jut 601 of the rodmeter 111b of the jut 601 of the rodmeter 111a of a side and the opposing party is arranged.Specifically, each rodmeter 111 is arranged in jut 601 mode that side is located on the front of the jut 601 of the rodmeter 111a of a side than the rodmeter 111b of the opposing party.
Thus, time in transport path 301 from front face side towards rear side conveying recording medium, the jut 601 of the rodmeter 111a of a side is positioned at the upstream side of the throughput direction of this recording medium.And, by the jut 601 of the jut 601 of rodmeter 111a than the rodmeter 111b of the opposing party is located side on the front, thus in transport path 301 from rear side towards front face side conveying recording medium time, the jut 601 of the rodmeter 111b of the opposing party is positioned at the upstream side of the throughput direction of this recording medium.
Like this, in printer 100, no matter being from front face side towards rear side conveying recording medium, or from rear side towards front face side conveying recording medium, be all positioned at the upstream side of the throughput direction of recording medium at the jut 601 being positioned at left side under the state faced by throughput direction and printer 100.
As shown in Figure 7, when recording medium is not in detection position, jut 601 abuts with the bottom surface 602 of transport path 301.In this case, jut 601 be in projection on the width of transport path 301 between 402 by the state of this projection to 402 clampings.The recording medium carried from upstream side to downstream (from side direction rear side above) in transport path 301, before the jut 601 of rodmeter 111b arriving the opposing party and the abutted position of the bottom surface 602 of transport path 301, first arrives the jut 601 of the rodmeter 111a of a side and the abutted position of the bottom surface 602 of transport path 301.
As shown in Figure 8, when the front end 801a of recording medium 801 arrives detection position (jut 601 of the rodmeter 111a of a side and the abutted position of the bottom surface 602 of transport path 301), the jut 601 of the rodmeter 111a of a side is pushed away by this recording medium 801 in the mode be separated from the bottom surface 602 of transport path 301.Like this, when the rodmeter 111a of a side is pushed, the jut 601 of the rodmeter 111a of a side moves in the mode be open from the bottom surface 602 of transport path 301.
Thus, the rodmeter 111a of a side makes axle 501 rotate, and via axle 501, detection lug 502 is conjugated, makes the exporting change of sensor.Thereby, it is possible to detect that the front end 801a of recording medium 801 reaches to detect position (jut 601 of the rodmeter 111a of a side and the abutted position of the bottom surface 602 of transport path 301) this situation.
Axle 501 starts to rotate to the moment abutted before the upper surface of 402 and then with rodmeter 111a from the front end 801a of recording medium 801 along projection.The rodmeter 111b of the opposing party, owing to being fixed on axle 501 in one end, therefore when the rodmeter 111a of a side starts to rotate, rotates along with the rotation of the axle 501 caused by this rotation.
The recording medium 801 carried from upstream side to downstream (from side direction rear side above) in transport path 301 from arrive raised to 402 moment, with along this projection to 402 the mode that is separated from the bottom surface 602 of transport path 301 of upper surface be transferred.Reach projection to 402 recording medium 801 become between projection is to 402 stretch state.Thereby, it is possible to the paper using of the inspection positions suppressing rodmeter 111 to contact with recording medium 801 is lax.
Reach projection to 402 recording medium 801 owing to being carried further from front face side towards rear side, thus its front end with along projection to 402 the mode that is separated from the bottom surface 602 of transport path 301 of upper surface move.Like this, reach projection to 402 recording medium 801 by the jut 601 of the rodmeter 111a of a side the mode held to push away (pushing open) and to move it.
Thus, the jut 601 of rodmeter 111 is held by the recording medium 801 stretched between projection is to 402 in inspection positions, is pushed (pushing open) in the mode be separated from the bottom surface 602 of transport path 301.Like this, by installing projection to 402 at detecting position, the jut 601 of rodmeter 111 can be made thus reliably to contact with recording medium 801, axle 501 can be made reliably to rotate.
