Description

  The present invention relates to a feeding cassette apparatus that can be detachably attached to a portable recording apparatus that can be carried, and a recording apparatus to which the feeding cassette apparatus can be attached.

  Furthermore, the present invention relates to a liquid ejecting apparatus such as an ink jet recording apparatus that ejects (ejects) a liquid such as ink from a head thereof and performs recording (adhering liquid) on a recording material (liquid ejecting material). The present invention relates to a feeding cassette device mounted on a liquid ejecting apparatus.

  Here, the liquid ejecting apparatus uses an ink jet recording head, and is not limited to a recording apparatus such as a printer, a copying machine, and a facsimile machine that records ink on a recording material by discharging ink from the recording head. It is used to include a device for ejecting a liquid corresponding to the application from a liquid ejecting head corresponding to the recording head to a liquid ejecting material corresponding to a recording material and attaching the liquid to the liquid ejecting material.

  In addition to the recording head, as a liquid ejecting head, a color material ejecting head used for manufacturing a color filter such as a liquid crystal display, and an electrode material (conductive paste) used for forming an electrode such as an organic EL display or a surface emitting display (FED) Examples thereof include an ejection head, a bioorganic matter ejection head used for biochip production, and a sample ejection head as a precision pipette.

  Some portable recording apparatuses that can be carried are provided with a portal handle on the side of the recording apparatus main body as shown in Patent Document 1 below. The hand handle is configured to be able to rotate back and forth, and is used by tilting it backwards so that it does not get in the way when recording is performed. It is configured to be portable.

  On the other hand, among the portable type recording apparatuses, there is a type of recording apparatus that can be loaded with a feeding cassette apparatus that can accommodate a large number of recording materials in a stacked state. As such a feeding cassette device, there is a feeding cassette device of a type that is inserted into an opening formed at the upper rear side of the recording apparatus main body with an inclination downward and used in an inclined posture.

  However, if the feeding cassette device having such an inclined posture is attached to the recording apparatus main body, the rotation operation of the hand handle may be hindered. In such a case, each time the hand handle is rotated. One by one, the cassette device for feeding must be removed from the recording device main body. Further, if the left and right arm lengths of the hand handle are lengthened, the interference with the feeding cassette device can be avoided, but the hand handle becomes larger and the portability of the recording apparatus is impaired.

  Furthermore, the rotation of the hand handle for switching the posture of the hand handle that is performed between use and carrying is cumbersome, and providing a hand handle that is not directly related to the execution of recording increases the number of parts. Invited, it was also one of the factors that damaged the appearance of the recording device. Further, the feeding cassette apparatus has a structure only for the purpose of storing and feeding the recording material, and no further functions are provided.

  The handle portion 25 is configured by including a grip portion 53 that is gripped by a hand during carrying, and left and right arm portions 55 and 55 that extend from both ends of the grip portion 53 toward the cassette body 21 side. Of these, the arm portions 55 and 55 are configured to be slidable in the vertical direction (coincident with the paper transport direction) with respect to the cassette body 21, and the arm portions 55 and 55 are pulled out from the cassette body 21. The state is the state in which the handle portion 25 can be used, and the state in which the arm portions 55 and 55 are accommodated in the cassette body 21 is the retracted state of the handle portion 25.

  The automatic locking mechanism 27 includes a compression coil spring 59 as an urging means provided to the cassette body 21, a lock pin 61 that is always provided with a tendency to protrude by the compression coil spring 59, and the opening 5 of the printer body 3. Formed on the left and right inner wall surfaces, when the lock pin 61 is in a protruding state, the recess 63 that engages with the lock pin 61 and the arm portions 55 and 55 are provided integrally with the cassette body 21. The shutter plates 65 and 65 extending toward the side end portion 29 are provided.

  The compression coil spring 59 and the lock pin 61 are provided on the left and right sides of the mounting side end 29 of the cassette body 21, and the lock pin 61 is formed on the side surface of the mounting side end 29. The left and right pin receiving holes 67, 67 are configured to project outward. The shutter plates 65, 65 are extended along the left and right side surfaces of the cassette body 21, and a part of the shutter plates 65, 65 protrudes from the pin receiving hole 67 by contacting the lock pin 61. A guide inclined plate 69 is provided for guiding the lock pin 61 in the state to be retracted into the cassette body 21.

  Next, when the feeding cassette device 1 configured as described above is (1) mounted on the printer main body 3 and (2) the inkjet printer 100 is carried using the mounted feeding cassette device 1. The operation mode of the feeding cassette apparatus 1 of the present invention will be described separately for (3) when the feeding cassette apparatus 1 mounted on the printer main body 3 is removed from the printer main body 3.

(1) When mounted on the printer body (see FIGS. 4, 6, and 8)
First, as shown in FIG. 6, the main lid 43 is opened, and a predetermined number of sheets P are set in the cassette body 21 in a stacked state. At this time, the left and right edge guides 39 and 41 are placed along the left and right side edges (edges) of the sheet using the movable edge guide mechanism 37. Then, the main lid 43 is closed as shown in FIG. 4, the upper end portion of the feeding cassette device 1 provided with the handle portion 25 is held and the opening 5 of the printer main body 3 is inserted into the opening 5 of the feeding cassette device 1. The mounting side end 29 is inserted, and the feeding cassette device 1 is mounted on the printer main body 3. In this state, as shown in FIG. 8, the automatic lock mechanism 27 is in the unlocked state.

(2) When carrying an inkjet printer (see FIGS. 5 and 7)
When the inkjet printer 100 is carried, the handle portion 25 in the feeding cassette device 1 attached to the printer body 3 is pulled upward as shown in FIG. In this state, as shown in FIG. 7, the shutter plates 65 and 65 are also moved upward together with the handle portion 25. Therefore, the left and right lock pins 61 and 61 are pushed by the compression coil springs 59 and 59 to be in a protruding state. . Then, the lock pins 61, 61 engage with the recesses 63, 63 formed on the left and right inner wall surfaces in the opening 5 of the printer body 3, so that the automatic lock mechanism 27 is locked. In this state, since the feeding cassette device 1 and the ink jet printer 100 are integrated, the ink jet printer 100 can be carried by gripping the grip portion 53 of the handle portion 25 with a hand.

(3) When removing from the printer body (see FIGS. 4, 6, and 8)
When removing the feeding cassette device 1 attached to the printer main body 3 from the printer main body 3, the handle 25 protruding from the upper end of the cassette main body 21 is pushed down as shown in FIG. The left and right arm portions 55 and 55 are stored in the cassette body 21. In this state, as shown in FIG. 8, the left and right lock pins 61, 61 are pushed inward by the guide inclined plates 69 of the left and right shutter plates 65, 65 and move inward while contracting the compression coil springs 59, 59. Thus, the cassette main body 21 is reached, and the lock state of the automatic lock mechanism 27 is released. Then, holding the upper end portion of the feeding cassette device 1 and pulling out the mounting side end 29 of the feeding cassette device 1 from the opening 5 of the printer body 3, the feeding cassette device 1 is removed from the printer body 3. Can be removed.
