DESCRIPTION OF EXEMPLARY EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, an embodiment of the invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
As shown in FIG. 1A, a multifunction machine 10 as a liquid ejecting apparatus includes an ink jet printer 11 and an image scanner 12 as an opening / closing member provided on the printer 11, and has a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape as a whole. I am doing.

  The printer 11 includes a main body housing 13 having a substantially rectangular box shape having an opening 13a opened on the upper surface. The base end of the image scanner 12 is rotatably attached to the main body housing 13 so as to open and close the opening 13 a of the main body housing 13. An operation panel 14 that is used when operating the multifunction machine 10 is provided at a portion of the main body housing 13 where the tip of the image scanner 12 covers from above.

  In addition, a rectangular plate-like support base 15 is provided in the lower part of the main body housing 13. Then, a sheet as a target is fed onto the support base 15 based on the driving of a paper feed motor (not shown) provided in the main body housing 13. That is, the space area above the support base 15 in the main body housing 13 is a paper conveyance area S, and the upper portion of the conveyance area S is exposed to the outside of the main body housing 13 through the opening 13 a of the main body housing 13. . The support base 15 is provided so that its longitudinal direction coincides with the width direction of the paper.

  A guide rail 16 extending along the longitudinal direction of the support base 15 is provided above the support base 15 in the main body housing 13. A carriage 17 is supported on the guide rail 16 so as to be capable of reciprocating in the longitudinal direction. The carriage 17 reciprocates in the scanning direction while being guided by the guide rail 16 based on driving of a carriage motor (not shown) provided in the main body housing 13.

  The carriage 17 includes a liquid ejecting head that is integrally incorporated on the lower surface of the carriage 17, and a plurality (four in this embodiment) of relay adapters 18 that are detachably housed in the carriage 17. The relay adapter 18 is an adapter that relays between an ink tank 19 serving as a liquid container provided outside the main body housing 13 and the liquid ejecting head, and each color ink as liquid ejected from the liquid ejecting head (this embodiment). In the embodiment, cyan ink, magenta ink, yellow ink, black ink) can be accommodated. A plurality of nozzles (not shown) are opened on the lower surface of the liquid jet head. As the piezoelectric element (not shown) provided in the liquid ejecting head is driven, the ink in the relay adapter 18 is supplied to the liquid ejecting head, and the supplied ink is supplied onto the support base 15 from the nozzle of the liquid ejecting head. Printing is performed by being ejected toward the fed paper.

  In addition, an ink tank 19 is provided outside the main body housing 13 as a liquid storage unit that stores ink of each color ejected from the nozzles of the liquid ejection head. These ink tanks 19 are provided at positions near the home position HP in the scanning direction of the carriage 17. One end of an ink supply tube 20 serving as a liquid supply tube that functions as a flow path for ink stored in the ink tank 19 is connected to the ink tank 19. The other end side of the ink supply tube 20 is inserted into the movement region of the carriage 17 through the opening 13 a of the main body housing 13 from a position opposite to the home position HP in the scanning direction of the carriage 17 and is mounted on the carriage 17. Connected to the relay adapter 18.

  In addition, in the upper surface of the main body housing 13, when the side that rotatably supports the image scanner 12 is the back side, the concave portion 22 positioned on the front side of the opening 13 a has a spacer 21 that has a substantially square cylindrical shape. However, it is fixed in a state where its axial direction is along the longitudinal direction of the main body housing 13. That is, the spacer 21 is a cylindrical body 21A that is sandwiched between the concave portion 22 and the image scanner 12 when the image scanner 12 rotates in a direction to close the opening 13a of the main body housing 13, and It is provided in order to ensure a gap through which the ink supply tube 20 is inserted between the scanner 12 and the opening 13 a of the main body housing 13.

  Further, as shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B, a part of the peripheral wall of the cylindrical body 21A constituting the spacer 21, specifically, a wall portion not in contact with the recess 22 (FIG. 1 ( A slit 23 is formed in the upper wall portion (a) and (b) as a rectangular passage portion that communicates the inside and outside of the cylindrical body 21A. The slit 23 is formed so as to extend over the entire region in the longitudinal direction of the spacer 21 (the axial direction of the cylindrical body 21A).

  Therefore, the ink supply tube 20 can be inserted into the space area 24 inside the spacer 21 through the slit 23 while being elastically deformed by moving in the direction orthogonal (crossing) the length direction. . When the ink supply tube 20 is inserted into the inner space 24 of the spacer 21, the outer surface of the ink supply tube 20 comes into contact with the inner surface 21a of the spacer 21 (cylindrical body 21A). The tube is restricted from moving in the direction intersecting the length direction. That is, the spacer 21 functions as a contact member that regulates the movement of the ink supply tube 20 with the inner surface 21a of the cylindrical body 21A serving as a contact portion. As a result, the portion between the spacer 21 and the relay adapter 18 in the length direction of the ink supply tube 20 is defined by the spacer 21 as a deformable movable portion 20a that deforms following the movement of the carriage 17.
