Paper P in the sheet feed stacker 12 extracts one by pick-up roller 24 at every turn, and is supplied to recording section 14 by translator unit 16.Translator unit 16 comprises the conveyer belt 30 that the printing surface that is used to make paper P and ink jet print head 20 are relative.This conveyer belt 30 twines around driven roller 26 (it is arranged in the downstream of paper conveyance direction) and driven roll 28 (it is arranged in the upstream side of paper conveyance direction).Direction (clockwise direction) circulation that conveyer belt 30 is configured to arrow A in the figure drives (rotation).
As shown in Figure 3, compression roller (nipping roller) 32 is arranged in the top of driven roll 28.This compression roller 32 is driven by conveyer belt 30 by the front face side of conveyer belt 30.Charging roller 34 is arranged in the below of driven roll 28.This charging roller 34 is driven by conveyer belt 30 by the described front face side of conveyer belt 30.
Conveyer belt 30 is by charging roller 34 chargings (applying electric charge thereon), so paper P is transmitted on conveyer belt 30 and by this conveyer belt 30 by electrostatic adherence.Here, can be provided with such structure, wherein charging roller 34 contacts with conveyer belt 30 all the time and is driven by conveyer belt 30, also can be provided with such structure, wherein makes charging roller 34 move apart conveyer belt 30 when paper P passes through charging roller 34 at every turn.
At the place, bottom of conveyer belt 30, promptly arrange the opposite side place of side at itself and ink jet print head 20, idler roller 36 is driven by conveyer belt 30 by the back side of conveyer belt 30.A pair of clearer 38 is arranged between idler roller 36 and the driven roller 26.This is made of stationary roll 38A and oscillating roller 38B clearer 38.Stationary roll 38A is driven by conveyer belt 30 by the back side of conveyer belt 30.Oscillating roller 38B is driven by conveyer belt 30 by the front face side of conveyer belt 30, and is configured to and can suitably separates from conveyer belt 30.
Be arranged in the downstream of idler roller 36 along the rotation direction of conveyer belt 30 as first disengaging pawl 40 of first separating part.First disengaging pawl 40 can pivot on rotating shaft 40A, and is configured to and can be used for the position of conveyer belt 30 sliding-contacts with from rotating (swing) between the position that conveyer belt 30 separates.
Be arranged in the downstream of driven roller 26 along the rotation direction of conveyer belt 30 as the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 of the 3rd separating part.Similar with first disengaging pawl 40, the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 can pivot on rotating shaft 42A, and is configured to and can be used for the position of conveyer belt 30 sliding-contacts with from rotating (swing) between the position that conveyer belt 30 separates.After a while second separating part will be described.
Loopback part 17 be arranged in translator unit 16 below.Loopback part 17 comprises oppositely is with 50, and this reverse band is used for temporarily keeping paper P and when duplex printing paper P is turned.Oppositely be with 50 around driven roller 44, driven roll 46 and idler roller 48 windings.Oppositely be configured to and drive (rotation) along the direction of arrow F among the figure and direction (fore-and-aft direction) circulation of arrow R with 50.
Oppositely be with 50 by charging roller 54 charging (applying electric charge thereon), this charging roller 54 driven roller 44 near by oppositely with 50 front face side driving.Paper P electrostatic adherence oppositely is being with on 50 and by its transmission.Here, charging roller 54 has as paper P and moves apart oppositely structure with 50 when the charging roller 54, rather than wherein charging roller 54 all the time with oppositely contact and by the structure of its driving with 50, like this, charging roller 54 just can not rub attached to oppositely with the print surface of the paper P on 50.That is, charging roller 54 be configured to can (by swing) near oppositely be with 50 and with oppositely be with 50 to separate.
Idler roller 48 is configured to and can moves back and forth along the direction (being the direction of arrow B shown in Fig. 3) that is basically parallel to across the conveyer belt 30 between driven roll 28 and idler roller 36.When paper P treats that when oppositely being with 50 to be sent to conveyer belt 30, idler roller 48 is arranged near first disengaging pawl 40, as shown in Figure 3.
When idler roller 48 is arranged in this position, can make oppositely with the radius of curvature of 50 the part of twining around idler roller 48 less.Therefore, paper P can peel off automatically from this part.Like this, in first embodiment, idler roller 48 has constituted and has been used for paper P from oppositely with 50 second separating parts that separate.Therefore, this structure has simple advantage.
Simultaneously, spur gear 52 is arranged in the top of the 3rd disengaging pawl 42, and transfer roller is arranged in appropriate position on the transfer path of paper P to 56 in how right mode (in the structure in the drawings being seven pairs).For with respect to the transfer roller in the downstream of ink jet print head 20 to 56 (in the structure in the drawings being four pairs), preferably the driven roll of every centering is a spur gear.
Below, will the operation of ink-jet recording apparatus 10 with said structure be described.At first, will the situation that the single channel single face is printed be described.In this case, as shown in Figure 4, first disengaging pawl 40 moves apart conveyer belt 30, the three disengaging pawls 42 and conveyer belt 30 sliding-contacts, and this is driven by conveyer belt 30 clearer 38 (that is oscillating roller 38B).Therefore, in this state, paper P supplies to conveyer belt 30 by pick-up roller 24 and transfer roller to 56.
The paper P that has supplied on the conveyer belt 30 and remained on the conveyer belt 30 with adhering to is fed into the record position of ink jet print head 20, and writes down (printing) image on the one side (front) of paper P.Then, after finishing this image record, paper P peels off from conveyer belt 30 by the 3rd disengaging pawl 42, and is sent to paper discharge tray 18 by transfer roller to 56.Like this, just having finished the single channel single face prints.
Below, will the single channel duplex printing be described at the situation of each one of paper P, indexing transfer.In this case, as shown in Figure 5, at first first disengaging pawl 40 and conveyer belt 30 sliding-contacts, and the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 moves apart conveyer belt 30.This moves apart conveyer belt 30 to clearer 38 (oscillating roller 38B), and charging roller 54 is by oppositely being with 50 to drive.Therefore, in this state, paper P supplies to conveyer belt 30 by pick-up roller 24 and transfer roller to 56.
The paper P that has supplied on the conveyer belt 30 and remained on the conveyer belt 30 with adhering to is supplied to the record position of ink jet print head 20, and writes down (printing) image on the one side (front) of paper P.Then, further transmission remains on the paper P on the conveyer belt 30 with still adhering to, and by first disengaging pawl 40 it is peeled off (see figure 5) from conveyer belt 30.
The paper P that peels off from conveyer belt 30 remains on with adhering to and keeps and oppositely being with on 50 of conveyer belt 30 identical speed (linear velocity), and the direction transmission of arrow F in the figure.Here, charging roller 54 is sent to from conveyer belt 30 to move apart before oppositely being with 50 at paper P and oppositely is with 50 (seeing Fig. 6 A).
Subsequently, remain on when oppositely being with on 50 with adhering to fully, oppositely rotate (going back to) with the speed identical along the direction of arrow R, shown in Fig. 6 B with conveyer belt 30 with 50 at paper P.Because it is less oppositely to be furnished with the radius of curvature of part of idler roller 48 with 50, thus paper P (by second separating part) in a position of this part from oppositely being with 50 to peel off automatically, and paper P is kept by conveyer belt 30 once more with adhering to.
At this moment, the face side that paper P writes down (printing) image is carried out face with conveyer belt 30 and is contacted, and electrostatic adherence thereon.Yet, because conveyer belt 30 with oppositely keep identical speed with 50, so the image of record (printings) can not rub with conveyer belt 30 on the front.Therefore, can not cause the picture quality defective.And when paper P turned back to conveyer belt 30, charging roller 34 can move apart conveyer belt 30.
Therefore, the paper P that has remained on the conveyer belt 30 supplies to the record position of ink jet print head 20 with having adhered to again once more, and writes down (printing) image on the another side (back side) of paper P.Paper P recover to adhere to remain on finishing overleaf, print on the conveyer belt 30 during, the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 and conveyer belt 30 sliding-contacts.
Therefore, the paper P that has write down image on its back side peels off from conveyer belt 30 by the 3rd disengaging pawl 42, and is sent to paper discharge tray 18 by transfer roller to 56.Therefore, finished the single channel duplex printing.Here, when the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 slided with respect to conveyer belt 30, first disengaging pawl 40 moved apart conveyer belt 30, and as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4, this is driven by conveyer belt 30 clearer 38 (oscillating roller 38B).
Below, will at paper P once many situations that transmit continuously the single channel duplex printing is described.In this case, at first, first disengaging pawl 40 and conveyer belt 30 sliding-contacts, and the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 moves apart conveyer belt 30.This moves apart conveyer belt 30 (see figure 5)s to clearer 38 (oscillating roller 38B), and charging roller 54 is by oppositely being with 50 to drive, and idler roller 48 along the direction of arrow B towards driven roller 44 move (seeing Fig. 7 A).
That is, idler roller 48 moves to and approaches conveyer belt 30 and in the driven roller 44 basic position in the middle (that is, oppositely with 50 the radius of curvature position bigger than the radius of curvature of the initial position of idler roller 48) with driven roll 46.Therefore, in this state, many (for example, two) paper P1 and P2 just supply to conveyer belt 30 by pick-up roller 24 and transfer roller to 56 continuously.
Shown in Fig. 7 A, supplied on the conveyer belt 30 and remained on two pieces of paper P1 on the conveyer belt 30 and record position that P2 supplies to ink jet print head 20 successively with adhering to, thereby gone up record (printing) image in the one side (front) of paper.Then, further transmission remains on two pieces of paper P1 and the P2 on the conveyer belt 30 with still adhering to, and by first disengaging pawl 40 it is peeled off (seeing Fig. 7 B) successively from conveyer belt 30.
Shown in Fig. 7 B, the two pieces of paper P1 that peels off from conveyer belt 30 and P2 remain on with adhering to successively and keep and oppositely being with on 50 of conveyer belt 30 identical speed, and by the direction transmission of arrow F in figure.Here, charging roller 54 is sent to from conveyer belt 30 to move apart before oppositely being with 50 at a piece of paper P1 and oppositely is with 50.
Then, shown in Fig. 7 C, remain at second paper P2 with adhering to fully and oppositely to be with after 50, when the end of a piece of paper P1 by idler roller 48 but the front end of second paper P2 near (contiguous or arrive) idler roller 48 before the time, idler roller 48 is shifted to its initial position.When idler roller 48 is disposed in initial position, oppositely rotate (going back to) (seeing Fig. 7 D) with the speed identical along the direction of arrow R with conveyer belt 30 with 50.
Therefore, shown in Fig. 7 D, because it is less oppositely to be furnished with the radius of curvature of part of idler roller 48 with 50,, and keep once more by conveyer belt 30 so a piece of paper P1 peels off from oppositely being with on 50 automatically in a position of this part (by second separating part) with adhering to.Subsequently, second paper P2 be similarly from oppositely being with 50 to peel off, and remain on the conveyer belt 30 with adhering to once more.
Like this, oppositely be with 50, also can adopt simple structure to make a piece of paper P1 and second paper P2 be recycled to conveyer belt 30, and can not make its reversed order even in duplex printing, be sent to two pieces of paper P1 and P2 one-time continuous.Like this, the data of complexity that just can not need to be used for the print data exchange of the print data of a piece of paper P1 for example and second paper P2 are handled, thereby increase extra burden can not for the processing of print data.
Here, such structure can be set, wherein detect the end of a piece of paper P1 and the front end of second paper P2 etc. by the paper detecting sensor (not shown), this sensor is as identification division.Also such structure can be set, wherein the size of unusable paper P1 and P2, oppositely calculate with velocity of rotation of 50 etc.And when a piece of paper P1 had been sent back to conveyer belt 30, as previously mentioned, charging roller 34 can move apart conveyer belt 30.
When two pieces of paper P1 and P2 supplied to conveyer belt 30 once more, its front of writing down (printing) image was carried out face with conveyer belt 30 and is contacted, and by electrostatic adherence thereon.Yet, because conveyer belt 30 with oppositely keep identical speed with 50, so record (printing) image on the front can friction transmission belt 30.Therefore, can not make picture quality produce defective.
Therefore, remained on the record position that two pieces of paper P1 on the conveyer belt 30 and P2 supply to ink jet print head 20 once more successively with having adhered to again, and gone up record (printing) image at its other face (back side).Recover to adhere to from a piece of paper P1 remain on the conveyer belt 30 until finish overleaf printing during, the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 and conveyer belt 30 sliding-contacts.
Therefore, the two pieces of paper P1 and the P2 that have write down image on the back side peel off from conveyer belt 30 successively by the 3rd disengaging pawl 42, and are sent to paper discharge tray 18 by transfer roller to 56.Like this, just finished the continuous single channel duplex printing of plurality of sheets of paper.Here, when the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 slided with respect to conveyer belt 30, first disengaging pawl 40 moved apart conveyer belt 30, and as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4, this is driven by conveyer belt 30 clearer 38 (oscillating roller 38B).
Below, the multichannel duplex printing will be described.In this case, at first, first disengaging pawl 40 and the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 all move apart conveyer belt 30.And this moves apart conveyer belt 30 (see figure 5)s to clearer 38 (oscillating roller 38B), and makes charging roller 54 by oppositely being with 50 to drive.Therefore, in this state, paper P supplies to conveyer belt 30 by pick-up roller 24 and transfer roller to 56.
Supplied to conveyer belt 30 and remained on the record position that paper P on the conveyer belt 30 is fed into ink jet print head 20 with adhering to, shown in Fig. 8 A, and gone up record (printing) image in the one side (front) of paper P.Then, further transmission remains on the paper P on the conveyer belt 30 with still adhering to, and it is repeatedly supplied to the record position of ink jet print head 20.At this moment, charging roller 34 can move apart conveyer belt 30 when paper P is through charging roller 34 at every turn.
When on the front, finally printing, when paper P through when zone of first disengaging pawl 40, first disengaging pawl 40 final print finish before with conveyer belt 30 sliding-contacts, shown in Fig. 8 B.Therefore, on the front after final the printing, keep and the paper P that transmits peels off from conveyer belt 30 by first disengaging pawl 40 by conveyer belt 30 with adhering to.The paper P that separates from conveyer belt 30 remains on with being attached and keeps and oppositely being with on 50 of conveyer belt 30 identical speed, and the direction of arrow F is transmitted in the figure.
Here, charging roller 54 is sent to from conveyer belt 30 to move apart before oppositely being with 50 at paper P and oppositely is with 50.Then, remain on when oppositely being with on 50 with adhering to fully, oppositely rotate (going back to) with the speed identical along the direction of arrow R, shown in Fig. 8 C with conveyer belt 30 with 50 at paper P.Because it is less oppositely to be furnished with the radius of curvature of part of idler roller 48 with 50, thus paper P in a position of this part (by second separating part) from oppositely being with 50 to peel off automatically, and paper P remains on the conveyer belt 30 with adhering to once more.
At this moment, the paper P that its front face side writes down (printing) image carries out face with conveyer belt 30 and contacts, and by electrostatic adherence thereon.Yet, because conveyer belt 30 with oppositely keep identical speed with 50, so record (printing) image on the front can friction transmission belt 30.Therefore, can not make picture quality produce defective.
Therefore, the paper P that has remained on the conveyer belt 30 is supplied to the record position of ink jet print head 20 with having adhered to again once more, and writes down (printing) image on its another side (back side).Then, shown in Fig. 8 A, paper P keeps remaining on the conveyer belt 30 with adhering to, and is further transmitted and repeatedly be supplied to the record position of ink jet print head 20.Similar during with printing on the front, charging roller 34 all can move apart conveyer belt 30 when paper P is through charging roller 34 at every turn.
When finally printing overleaf, as paper P during by the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 regional, the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 before finishing final printing with conveyer belt 30 sliding-contacts, shown in Fig. 8 D.Therefore, go up overleaf after final the printing, remained on the conveyer belt 30 and the paper P that is transmitted by conveyer belt 30 peels off from conveyer belt 30 by the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 with having adhered to.The paper P that separates from conveyer belt 30 is sent to paper discharge tray 18 by transfer roller to 56.
Like this, just finished the multichannel duplex printing.Here, when the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 friction transmission belts 30, first disengaging pawl 40 moves apart conveyer belt 30, and as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4, this is driven by conveyer belt 30 clearer 38 (oscillating roller 38B).
Below, second embodiment will be described.As shown in Figure 9, the difference of second embodiment and above-mentioned first embodiment only is, is provided with a pair of idler roller 60 (replacing idler roller 48) towards driven roller 44 a little at loopback part 17 places, and second disengaging pawl 62 is set as second separating part.Therefore, the part identical with above-mentioned first embodiment used same Reference numeral, and suitably omitted the description to it.Not shown clearer 38 in Fig. 9.
Described two idler rollers 60 are arranged apart from each other with preset space length, oppositely are with 50 thereby widen along vertical direction, and be configured to can be along movement in vertical direction when remaining the state that wherein keeps this predetermined space.That is, this is supported on a unshowned framework place to idler roller 60A and 60B, thereby with the preset space length vertical separation, and be supported on the surperficial vertical direction with accompanying drawing.Therefore, this to idler roller 60 be configured to by this framework along vertical direction move can towards with move away from conveyer belt 30.
Second disengaging pawl 62 be fixedly arranged to become when this is raised to idler roller 60 (, when idler roller 60 shifts near conveyer belt 30) can with oppositely with the 50 part sliding-contacts that are furnished with idler roller 60A.Second idler roller 62 is configured to auxiliary paper P from oppositely being with 50 to peel off, and guiding paper P is to supply with (transmission) to conveyer belt 30 with paper P.
Below, description is had the operation of second embodiment of said structure.In the description of this operation, mass part is identical with first embodiment.Therefore, will only be described in wherein single channel duplex printing under the situation that at every turn transmits a piece of paper P off and on, transmit single channel duplex printing under the situation of plurality of sheets of paper P and multichannel duplex printing continuously therein at every turn.With the description of omitting to other printing model.
At first, with the single channel duplex printing that is described under the situation that transmits a piece of paper P off and at every turn.In this case, first disengaging pawl 40 and conveyer belt 30 sliding-contacts, and the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 moves apart conveyer belt 30.This moves apart conveyer belt 30 (see figure 5)s to clearer 38 (oscillating roller 38B), and makes charging roller 54 by oppositely being with 50 to drive.And this remains on lower position (seeing Figure 10 A) to idler roller 60, and it separates with second disengaging pawl 62 (with conveyer belt 30).
Therefore, in this state, to 56 paper P is supplied to conveyer belt 30 by pick-up roller 24 and transfer roller.Shown in Figure 10 A, supplied to conveyer belt 30 and remained on the record position that paper P on the conveyer belt 30 is fed into ink jet print head 20 with adhering to, and gone up record (printing) image in the one side (front) of paper P.Then, further transmission remains on the paper P on the conveyer belt 30 with still adhering to, and by first disengaging pawl 40 it is peeled off (seeing Figure 10 B) from conveyer belt 30.
The paper P that peels off from conveyer belt 30 remains on shown in Figure 10 B with adhering to and keeps and oppositely being with on 50 of conveyer belt 30 identical speed, and the direction shown in the arrow F is transmitted in the figure.Here, charging roller 54 is sent to from conveyer belt 30 to move apart before oppositely being with 50 at paper P and oppositely is with 50.Then, remain on when oppositely being with on 50 at paper P, oppositely band rotates (going back to) with the speed identical with conveyer belt 30 along the direction of arrow R, shown in Figure 10 C with adhering to fully.
Then, shown in Figure 11 A, with this backward rotation is carried out simultaneously be, this is raised with near conveyer belt 30 idler roller 60, and makes oppositely the part and 62 sliding-contacts of second disengaging pawl that is furnished with idler roller 60A with 50.Here, treat at conveyer belt 30 and transmit between oppositely with 50 and return at every turn under one the situation that this can just remain on this upper position from beginning to idler roller 60 at paper P, and oppositely be with 50 to slide with respect to second disengaging pawl 62.
Like this, when this remains on this upper position place to idler roller 60, make oppositely less with the radius of curvature of 50 (second disengaging pawl 62 oppositely slides with 50 with respect to this) by last idler roller 60A, thereby make paper P in this position (that is, than being sent to from conveyer belt 30 oppositely with 50 position) more near the position of driven roll 28 peel off automatically from oppositely being with 50.Assist paper P to peel off by second disengaging pawl 62, and guide paper P and it is remained on the conveyer belt 30 with adhering to once more by second disengaging pawl 62.Here, can be provided with such structure, wherein descend idler roller 60B this moment not with oppositely be with 50 to contact.
When paper P was supplied to conveyer belt 30 once more, the front face side of record (printing) image of paper P was carried out face with conveyer belt 30 and is contacted, and by electrostatic adherence thereon.Yet, regulate the rotating speed of driven roller 44, thereby do not change when 62 frictions of second disengaging pawl oppositely make oppositely the speed with 50 with 50 the time, and conveyer belt 30 with oppositely with the identical speed of 50 maintenances.Therefore, record (printing) image on the front does not rub with conveyer belt 30.So, can not cause the picture quality defective.Charging roller 34 can move apart conveyer belt 30 when conveyer belt 30 is got back in paper P supply.
Therefore, remained on the record position that paper P on the conveyer belt 30 supplies to ink jet print head 20 once more with having adhered to again, shown in Figure 11 B, and gone up record (printing) image at its another side (back side).Recovering to remain on the conveyer belt 30 during finishing that the back side prints the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 and conveyer belt 30 sliding-contacts from paper P with adhering to.
Therefore, the paper P that has recorded image on its back side peels off from conveyer belt 30 by the 3rd disengaging pawl 42, shown in Figure 11 C, and is sent to paper discharge tray 18 by transfer roller to 56.Like this, just finished and supplied with a piece of paper at every turn off and on and open single channel duplex printing under the situation of P.
Here, when the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 and conveyer belt 30 sliding-contacts, first disengaging pawl 40 separates with conveyer belt 30, and as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4, this is driven by conveyer belt 30 clearer 38 (oscillating roller 38B).And shown in Figure 11 C, this moves to lower position to idler roller 60.
Below, transmit plurality of sheets of paper continuously at every turn and open single channel duplex printing under the situation of P being described in.In this case, at first, first disengaging pawl 40 and conveyer belt 30 sliding-contacts, and the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 moves apart conveyer belt 30.This moves apart conveyer belt 30 (see figure 5)s to clearer 38 (oscillating roller 38B), and charging roller 54 is by oppositely being with 50 to drive, and this moves to lower position (seeing Figure 12 A) to idler roller 60 away from second disengaging pawl 62 (with conveyer belt 30).
Therefore, in this state, many (for example, two) paper P1 and P2 just are supplied to conveyer belt 30 by pick-up roller 24 and transfer roller to 56 continuously.Shown in Figure 12 A, supplied to conveyer belt 30 and remained on two pieces of paper P1 on the conveyer belt 30 and record position that P2 supplies to ink jet print head 20 successively with adhering to, and gone up record (printing) image in the one side (front) of paper.Then, further transmission remains on two pieces of paper P1 and the P2 on the conveyer belt 30 with still adhering to, and peels off (seeing Figure 12 B) from conveyer belt 30 successively by first disengaging pawl 40.
Shown in Figure 12 B, the two pieces of paper P1 that separates from conveyer belt 30 and P2 remain on with adhering to successively and keep and oppositely being with on 50 of conveyer belt 30 identical speed, and the direction transmission of arrow F in the figure.At this moment, charging roller 54 is transported to from conveyer belt 30 to move apart before oppositely being with 50 at a piece of paper P1 and oppositely is with 50.
Then, shown in Figure 12 C, second paper P2 remained on with having adhered to fully oppositely be with on 50 after, when the end of a piece of paper P1 by second disengaging pawl 62 (with last idler roller 60A) and front end no show still second disengaging pawl 62 of second paper P2 when (with last idler roller 60A), oppositely rotate (going back to) with the speed identical along the direction of arrow R with conveyer belt 30 with 50.
Then, as shown in FIG. 13A, be, this is raise with near conveyer belt 30 to idler roller 60, and make oppositely part sliding-contact second disengaging pawl 62 that is furnished with idler roller 60A with 50 with this backward rotation is carried out simultaneously.Here, as mentioned above, can be provided with such structure, wherein descend idler roller 60B this moment not with oppositely be with 50 to contact.
Like this, when this remains on the upper position place to idler roller 60, make oppositely less with the curvature of 50 (second disengaging pawl 62 slides with respect to this reverse band) by last idler roller 60A, thereby make a piece of paper P1 in this position (that is, than being sent to from conveyer belt 30 oppositely with 50 position) more near the position of driven roll 28 peel off automatically from oppositely being with 50.Assist peeling off of a piece of paper P1 by second disengaging pawl 62, and guide a piece of paper P1 and it is remained on the conveyer belt 30 with adhering to once more by second disengaging pawl 62.Subsequently, shown in Figure 13 B, second paper P2 be equally from oppositely being with 50 to peel off, and remain on the conveyer belt 30 with adhering to once more.
Like this,, adopt simple structure, also a piece of paper P1 and second paper P2 can be recycled on the conveyer belt 30, and can not make its reversed order although each two pieces of paper P1 and P2 are sent to continuously and oppositely are with 50 in duplex printing.Like this, just can not need to be used for for example to make the data of complexity of the print data exchange of the print data of a piece of paper P1 and second paper P2 to handle, thereby increase extra burden can not for the processing of print data.
Here, such structure be can be provided with, wherein the end of a piece of paper P1 and the front end of second paper P2 etc. detected by paper detecting sensor (, not shown) as identification division.Also can be provided with such structure, wherein utilize the size of paper P1 and P2, oppositely wait with 50 rotating speed and calculate.And charging roller 34 can move apart conveyer belt 30 when a piece of paper P1 supplies to conveyer belt 30 again, as mentioned above.
When two pieces of paper P1 and P2 supplied to conveyer belt 30 again, it writes down (printing) had the front of image to carry out face with conveyer belt 30 to contact, and by electrostatic adherence thereon.Yet, regulate the rotating speed of driven roller 44, thereby do not change when 62 frictions of second disengaging pawl oppositely make oppositely the speed with 50 with 50 the time, and conveyer belt 30 and oppositely be with the same speed of 50 maintenances.Therefore, record (printing) image on the front can not rub with conveyer belt 30.Therefore, can not cause the picture quality defective.
Thereby, remained on the record position that two pieces of paper P1 on the conveyer belt 30 and P2 sequentially supply to ink jet print head 20 once more with having adhered to again, and gone up record (printing) image at its another side (back side).Recovering to remain on the conveyer belt 30 during finishing that the back side prints the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 and conveyer belt 30 sliding-contacts from paper P1 with adhering to.
Therefore, the two pieces of paper P that has recorded image on its back side peels off from conveyer belt 30 successively by the 3rd disengaging pawl 42, shown in Figure 13 C, and is sent to paper discharge tray 18 by transfer roller to 56.Like this, just finished the continuous single channel duplex printing of plurality of sheets of paper.
Here, when the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 slided with respect to conveyer belt 30, first disengaging pawl 40 moved apart conveyer belt 30, and as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4, this is driven by conveyer belt 30 clearer 38 (oscillating roller 38B).And shown in Figure 13 C, this moves to lower position to idler roller 60.
Below, the multichannel duplex printing will be described.This printing model and above-mentioned single channel duplex printing difference only are that paper P supplies to the record position place of ink jet print head 20 for many times, and therefore do not illustrate.
At first, first disengaging pawl 40 and the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 all move apart conveyer belt 30.And this moves apart conveyer belt 30 (see figure 5)s to clearer 38 (oscillating roller 38B), and charging roller 54 is by oppositely being with 50 to drive.Like this, under this state, paper P supplies to conveyer belt 30 by pick-up roller 24 and transfer roller to 56.
The paper P that has supplied to conveyer belt 30 and remained on the conveyer belt 30 with adhering to is fed into the record position of ink jet print head 20, and writes down (printing) image on the one side (front) of this paper P.Then, further transmission remains on the paper P on the conveyer belt 30 with still adhering to, and repeatedly supplies to the record position of ink jet print head 20.At this moment, charging roller 34 all moves apart conveyer belt 30 when paper P is through charging roller 34 at every turn.
When on the front, finally printing, as paper P during by first disengaging pawl 40 regional, first disengaging pawl 40 final print finish before sliding-contact conveyer belt 30.Therefore, on the front after final the printing, remained on the conveyer belt 30 with having adhered to and peeled off from conveyer belt 30 by first disengaging pawl 40 by the paper P of its transmission.The paper P that peels off from conveyer belt 30 remains on with adhering to and keeps and oppositely being with on 50 of conveyer belt 30 identical speed, and along the direction transmission of arrow F.
Here, charging roller 54 is sent to from conveyer belt 30 to move apart before oppositely being with 50 at paper P and oppositely is with 50.Then, remain on when oppositely being with on 50 with adhering to fully, oppositely rotate (going back to) with the speed identical along the direction of arrow R with conveyer belt 30 with 50 at paper P.
Then, be, this is raise with near conveyer belt 30 to idler roller 60, and make oppositely part sliding-contact second disengaging pawl 62 that is furnished with idler roller 60A with 50 with this backward rotation is carried out simultaneously.Here, when paper P each one transmitted at conveyer belt 30 with between oppositely being with 50, this can just remain on this upper position from beginning to idler roller 60, and oppositely was with 50 with respect to 62 slips of second disengaging pawl, as mentioned above.
Like this, when this remains on the upper position place to idler roller 60, less by feasible 50 (second disengaging pawl 62 slides with respect to this reverse band) radius of curvature of oppositely being with of last idler roller 60A, thereby paper P in this position (that is, than being sent to from conveyer belt 30 oppositely with 50 position) more near the position of driven roll 28 peel off automatically from oppositely being with 50.Assist peeling off of paper P by second disengaging pawl 62, and guide paper P and it is remained on the conveyer belt 30 with adhering to once more by second disengaging pawl 62.Here, can be provided with such structure, wherein descend idler roller 60B this moment not with oppositely be with 50 to contact, as mentioned above.
When paper P supplies to conveyer belt 30 again, paper P thereon record (printing) have the front of image to carry out face to contact with conveyer belt 30, and thereon by electrostatic adherence.Yet, regulate the rotating speed of driven roller 44, thereby do not change when 62 frictions of second disengaging pawl oppositely make oppositely the speed with 50 with 50 the time, and conveyer belt 30 and oppositely be with the same speed of 50 maintenances.Therefore, record (printing) image on the front does not rub with conveyer belt 30.Therefore, can not cause the picture quality defective.
Therefore, the paper P that has remained on the conveyer belt 30 is fed into the record position of ink jet print head 20 with having adhered to again once more, and writes down (printing) image on its another side (back side).Then, paper P keeps remaining on the conveyer belt 30 with adhering to, and is further transmitted and repeatedly be supplied to the record position of ink jet print head 20.Identical during with printing on the front, charging roller 34 all can move apart conveyer belt 30 when paper P is by charging roller 34 at every turn.
When finally printing on overleaf, as paper P during by the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 regional, the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 final print finish before sliding-contact conveyer belt 30.Therefore, go up overleaf after final the printing, remained on the conveyer belt 30 with having adhered to and peeled off from conveyer belt 30 by the 3rd disengaging pawl 42, and be sent to paper discharge tray 18 to 56 by transfer roller by the paper P of its transmission.
Like this, just finished the multichannel duplex printing.Here, when the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 slided with respect to conveyer belt 30, first disengaging pawl 40 moved apart conveyer belt 30, and as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4, this is driven by conveyer belt 30 clearer 38 (oscillating roller 38B).And this moves to lower position to idler roller 60.
Below the 3rd embodiment will be described.As shown in figure 14, the 3rd embodiment and the above-mentioned first embodiment difference only are, second disengaging pawl 64 (it is as second separating part) can be rotatably set in loopback part 17 places towards driven roll 28 a little, and idler roller 66 (replacing idler roller 48) is fixedly placed on the vicinity of second disengaging pawl 64.Therefore, the part identical with above-mentioned first embodiment represent with identical Reference numeral, and suitably omitted the description to it.Clearer 38 is not shown in Figure 14.
Similar with the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 to first disengaging pawl 40, second disengaging pawl 64 can pivot on rotating shaft 64A, and be configured to can be used for oppositely with the position of 50 sliding-contacts and with oppositely with 50 positions of separating between rotation (swing).Idler roller 66 is fixedly placed on the vicinity of second disengaging pawl 64, promptly, oppositely be with 50 sliding-contacts thereby make second disengaging pawl 64 be rotated down Shi Keyu at second disengaging pawl 64 in the pre-position that makes this idler roller 66 near conveyer belt 30 (near the position of driven roll 28).
Below, description is had the operation of the 3rd embodiment of said structure.In the description of this operation, a plurality of parts are identical with the part of first embodiment and/or second embodiment.Therefore, only be described in and transmit plurality of sheets of paper continuously at every turn and open single channel duplex printing and multichannel duplex printing under the situation of P.With the description of omitting to other printing model.
At first, transmit plurality of sheets of paper at every turn continuously and open single channel duplex printing under the situation of P describing.In this case, at first, first disengaging pawl 40 and conveyer belt 30 sliding-contacts, and the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 moves apart conveyer belt 30.This moves apart conveyer belt 30 (see figure 5)s to clearer 38 (oscillating roller 38B), and charging roller 54 is by oppositely being with 50 to drive, and second disengaging pawl 64 with oppositely be with 50 to separate (seeing Figure 15 A).
Therefore, in this state, many (for example, two) paper P1 and P2 supply to conveyer belt 30 by pick-up roller 24 and transfer roller continuously to 56.Shown in Figure 15 A, be supplied to conveyer belt 30 and remained on two pieces of paper P1 on the conveyer belt 30 and record position that P2 supplies to ink jet print head 20 successively with adhering to, and gone up record (printing) image in the one side (front) of paper.Then, further transmission remains on two pieces of paper P1 and the P2 on the conveyer belt 30 with still adhering to, and peels off (seeing Figure 15 B) by first disengaging pawl 40 successively from conveyer belt 30.
Shown in Figure 15 B, the two pieces of paper P1 that peels off from conveyer belt 30 and P2 remain on with adhering to successively and keep and oppositely being with on 50 of conveyer belt 30 identical speed, and the direction of arrow F is transmitted in the figure.At this moment, charging roller 54 is sent to from conveyer belt 30 to move apart before oppositely being with 50 at a piece of paper P1 and oppositely is with 50.
Then, shown in Figure 15 C, second paper P2 remained on with having adhered to fully oppositely be with on 50 after, when the end of a piece of paper P1 by second disengaging pawl 64 (with idler roller 66) but front end no show still second disengaging pawl 64 of second paper P2 when (with idler roller 66), oppositely rotate (going back to) with the speed identical along the direction of arrow R with conveyer belt 30 with 50.
Then, shown in Figure 16 A, with this backward rotation is carried out simultaneously be, described second disengaging pawl 64 is rotated down (towards oppositely being with 50), and oppositely with 50 part sliding-contact second disengaging pawls 64 that are furnished with idler roller 66.
Therefore, a piece of paper P1 by second disengaging pawl 64 (second separating part) than be sent to from conveyer belt 30 oppositely with 50 more near the position of driven roll 28 from oppositely being with 50 to peel off, and remain on the conveyer belt 30 with adhering to once more.Subsequently, shown in Figure 16 B, second paper P2 be equally from oppositely being with 50 to peel off, and remain on the conveyer belt 30 with adhering to once more.
Like this, oppositely be with on 50, also can adopt simple structure to make a piece of paper P1 and second paper P2 be recycled to conveyer belt 30, and can not make its reversed order even in duplex printing, be sent to two pieces of paper P1 and P2 one-time continuous.Like this, just can not need to be used for for example to make the data of complexity of the print data exchange of the print data of a piece of paper P1 and second paper P2 to handle, thereby increase extra burden can not for the processing of print data.
Here, such structure be can be provided with, wherein the end of a piece of paper P1 and the front end of the second paper P2 etc. detected by paper detecting sensor (, not shown) as identification division.Also can be provided with such structure, wherein utilize the size of paper P1 and P2, oppositely wait with 50 rotating speed and calculate.And when a piece of paper P1 was supplied to conveyer belt 30 again, charging roller 34 can move apart conveyer belt 30, as previously mentioned.
When two pieces of paper P1 and P2 supplied to conveyer belt 30 again, it writes down (printing) had the front of image to carry out face with conveyer belt 30 to contact, and by electrostatic adherence thereon.Yet, regulate the rotating speed of driven roller 44, thereby do not change when 64 frictions of second disengaging pawl oppositely make oppositely the speed with 50 with 50 the time, and conveyer belt 30 and oppositely be with the same speed of 50 maintenances.Therefore, record (printing) image on the front can not rub with conveyer belt 30.Therefore, can not cause the picture quality defective.
Like this, remained on the record position that two pieces of paper P1 on the conveyer belt 30 and P2 supply to ink jet print head 20 once more successively with having adhered to again, and gone up record (printing) image at its another side (back side).Recover to remain on from a piece of paper P1 on the conveyer belt 30 with adhering to up to finish print overleaf during, the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 and conveyer belt 30 sliding-contacts.
Therefore, the two pieces of paper P1 and the P2 that have write down image on its back side peel off from conveyer belt 30 successively by the 3rd disengaging pawl 42, shown in Figure 16 C, and are sent to paper discharge tray 18 by transfer roller to 56.Like this, just finished the single channel duplex printing of many continuous forms.
Here, when the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 slided with respect to conveyer belt 30, first disengaging pawl 40 moved apart conveyer belt 30, and as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4, this is driven by conveyer belt 30 clearer 38 (oscillating roller 38B).And shown in Figure 16 C, second disengaging pawl 64 with oppositely be with 50 to separate.
Below the multichannel duplex printing will be described.This printing model and above-mentioned single channel duplex printing difference only are that paper P supplies to the record position of ink jet print head 20 for many times, and be therefore not shown.
At first, first disengaging pawl 40 and the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 all move apart conveyer belt 30.And this moves apart conveyer belt 30 (see figure 5)s to clearer 38 (oscillating roller 38B), and charging roller 54 is by oppositely being with 50 to drive.Therefore, in this state, paper P supplies to conveyer belt 30 by pick-up roller 24 and transfer roller to 56.
The paper P that has supplied to conveyer belt 30 and remained on the conveyer belt 30 with adhering to is fed into the record position of ink jet print head 20, and writes down (printing) image on the one side (front) of paper P.Then, further transmission remains on the paper P on the conveyer belt 30 with still adhering to, and it is repeatedly supplied to the record position of ink jet print head 20.At this moment, charging roller 34 all can move apart conveyer belt 30 when paper P is through charging roller 34 at every turn.
When on the front, finally printing, as paper P during through first disengaging pawl 40 regional, first disengaging pawl 40 final print finish before with conveyer belt 30 sliding-contacts.Therefore, after the final printing on the front, keep and the paper P that transmits peels off from conveyer belt 30 by first disengaging pawl 40 by conveyer belt 30 with adhering to.The paper P that separates from conveyer belt 30 remains on with being attached and keeps and oppositely being with on 50 of conveyer belt 30 identical speed, and is transmitted along the direction of arrow F.
At this moment, charging roller 54 is sent to from conveyer belt 30 to move apart before oppositely being with 50 at paper P and oppositely is with 50.Then, remain on when oppositely being with on 50 with adhering to fully, oppositely rotate (going back to) with the speed identical along the direction of arrow R with conveyer belt 30 with 50 at paper P.
Then, with this backward rotation is carried out simultaneously be, second disengaging pawl 64 is rotated down (towards oppositely being with 50), and oppositely with 50 part sliding-contact second disengaging pawls 64 that are furnished with idler roller 66.As a result, paper P is more being peeled off from oppositely being with 50 by second disengaging pawl 64 (second separating part) near the position of driven roll 28 with 50 than being sent to from conveyer belt 30 oppositely, and remains on the conveyer belt 30 with adhering to once more.
At this moment, the record (printing) of paper P has the front of image to carry out face with conveyer belt 30 to contact, and electrostatic adherence thereon.Yet, regulate the rotating speed of driven roller 44, thereby making oppositely oppositely to be with in 64 frictions of second disengaging pawl with 50 rotating speed did not change at 50 o'clock, and conveyer belt 30 and oppositely with the identical speed of 50 maintenances.Therefore, record (printing) image on the front can not rub with conveyer belt 30.Therefore, can not cause the picture quality defective.
Therefore, the paper P that has remained on the conveyer belt 30 is fed into the record position of ink jet print head 20 with having adhered to again once more, and writes down (printing) image on its another side (back side).Then, paper P keeps remaining on the conveyer belt 30 with adhering to, and is repeatedly further transmitted and supply to the record position of ink jet print head 20.Identical during with printing on the front, charging roller 34 all moves apart conveyer belt 30 when paper P is through charging roller 34 at every turn.
When finally printing on overleaf, as paper P during by the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 regional, the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 final print finish before sliding-contact conveyer belt 30.Therefore, after finally printing overleaf, kept and the paper P that transmits peels off from conveyer belt 30 by the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 with adhering to, and be sent to paper discharge tray 18 to 56 by transfer roller by conveyer belt 30.
So just finished the multichannel duplex printing.Here, when the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 friction transmission belts 30, first disengaging pawl 40 moves apart conveyer belt 30, and as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4, this is driven by conveyer belt 30 clearer 38 (oscillating roller 38B).And, second disengaging pawl 64 with oppositely be with 50 to separate.
At last, the 4th embodiment will be described.Shown in Figure 17 A and 17B, the 4th embodiment is formed with reverse drum 70, rather than oppositely is with 50 around what driven roller 44, driven roll 46 and idler roller 48 (perhaps 60 or 66) twined.Oppositely drum 70 is constructed to be permeable to drive along the fore-and-aft direction rotation, and is constructed to be permeable to electrostatic adherence paper P.In this case, need second disengaging pawl 68 as being used for from second separating part of reverse drum 70 release papers P.
Particularly, under the situation of reverse drum 70, can not the less zone of a radius of curvature be set with above-mentioned to be used for oppositely being with of first embodiment and second embodiment 50 the same.Therefore, (when reverse drum 70 goes back to) paper P can not peel off automatically oppositely the time.So, must locate to be provided with second disengaging pawl 68 in the position (position of the most close conveyer belt 30) that paper P supply may be got back to conveyer belt 30, and the paper P that utilizes this second disengaging pawl 68 will remain on the reverse drum 70 forces to peel off with adhering to from reverse drum 70.
Second disengaging pawl 68 can be configured to all the time and reverse drum 70 sliding-contacts, only can also be configured to when paper P peels off and oppositely drum 70 sliding-contacts.For reverse drum 70, print at the single channel single face, supply with off and at every turn in the single channel duplex printing, single channel duplex printing and multichannel duplex printing under many supply situations continuously under the situation, the 3rd embodiment oppositely is with 50 just to be substituted by this reverse drum 70 simply.Therefore, for the description of these operations, will only describe the multichannel duplex printing, and omit other printing model.
Under multichannel duplex printing situation, at first, first disengaging pawl 40 and the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 all move apart conveyer belt 30, and this moves apart conveyer belt 30 (see figure 5)s to clearer 38 (oscillating roller 38B).Therefore, in this state, paper P supplies to conveyer belt 30 by pick-up roller 24 and transfer roller to 56.
The paper P that has supplied to conveyer belt 30 and remained on the conveyer belt 30 with adhering to is supplied to the record position of ink jet print head 20, and writes down (printing) image on the one side (front) of paper P.Then, further transmission remains on the paper P on the conveyer belt 30 with still adhering to, and repeatedly supplies to the record position of ink jet print head 20.At this moment, charging roller 34 all moves apart conveyer belt 30 when paper P passes through charging roller 34 at every turn.
When on the front, finally printing, the zone by first disengaging pawl 40 as paper P, first disengaging pawl 40 final print finish before sliding-contact conveyer belt 30.Therefore, after the final printing on the front, kept and the paper P that transmits peels off from conveyer belt 30 by first disengaging pawl 40 by conveyer belt 30 with adhering to.The paper P that peels off from conveyer belt 30 remains on the reverse drum 70 that keeps with conveyer belt 30 identical speed with adhering to, and is transmitted (seeing Figure 17 A) along the direction of arrow F.
Then, when paper P remained on the reverse drum 70 with adhering to fully, oppositely drum 70 rotated (going back to) with the speed identical with conveyer belt 30 along the direction of arrow R.Therefore, paper P peels off from reverse drum 70 by second disengaging pawl 68 that slides with respect to reverse drum 70, and remains on the conveyer belt 30 with adhering to once more and (see Figure 17 B).
At this moment, the record (printing) of paper P has the front face side of image to carry out face with conveyer belt 30 to contact, and electrostatic adherence thereon.Yet because oppositely drum 70 keeps identical speed with conveyer belt 30, record (printing) image on the front can not rub with conveyer belt 30.Therefore, can not cause mass defect.
Therefore, the paper P that has remained on the conveyer belt 30 supplies to the record position of ink jet print head 20 with having adhered to again once more, and writes down (printing) image on its another side (back side).Then, paper P remains on the conveyer belt 30 with still adhering to and is further transmitted, and repeatedly supplies to the record position of ink jet print head 20.Identical when printing on the front, charging roller 34 all moves apart conveyer belt 30 during through charging roller 34 at each paper P.
When finally printing on overleaf, as paper P during by the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 regional, the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 final print finish before sliding-contact conveyer belt 30.Therefore, after the final printing of going up overleaf, remained on the conveyer belt 30 with having adhered to and peeled off from conveyer belt 30 by the 3rd disengaging pawl 42, and be sent to paper discharge tray 18 to 56 by transfer roller by the paper P of its transmission.
Like this, just finished the multichannel duplex printing.Here, when the 3rd disengaging pawl 42 slided with respect to conveyer belt 30, first disengaging pawl 40 moved apart conveyer belt 30, and as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4, this is driven by conveyer belt 30 clearer 38 (oscillating roller 38B).
The as above description that first to the 4th embodiment is done for the paper P that has printed one side, is used to make 50 (the perhaps reverse drums 70) of oppositely being with of paper P upset to keep the still unprinted one side of paper P with adhering to.Therefore, can avoid owing to the scraping printing surface causes the picture quality variation.In addition, by being remained on with adhering to, paper P oppositely is with 50 (or reverse drums 70) to go up certain hour, the duration that can guarantee ink setting.(that is, can carry out face and provide a certain amount of time before contacting at printing surface and conveyer belt 30.)
And, (or oppositely drums 70) drives (rotation) with the speed rotation identical with conveyer belt 30 because oppositely with 50, so, can not slide between paper P and the conveyer belt 30 when paper P supplies with back conveyer belt 30 and printing surface when keeping thereon (carrying out face with it contacts) with adhering to.Therefore, even at this moment, also avoided owing to the scraping printing surface causes the picture quality variation.
In addition, because oppositely with 50 (or oppositely drums 70) be arranged on conveyer belt 30 under, and with paper P from the set positions that oppositely (or oppositely drums 70) is sent to conveyer belt 30 with 50 become than with paper P from position that conveyer belt 30 is sent to oppositely with 50 (or oppositely drums 70) more near driven roll 28, so the path of paper P is not made than long such shortcoming, thereby can once more paper P be supplied to conveyer belt 30 fast from oppositely being with 50 (or reverse drums 70).Therefore, the reduction of productivity ratio when duplex printing can be avoided, thereby the efficient of duplex printing can be improved.
