Hereinafter, an embodiment of the printing apparatus and an embodiment of the medium loading apparatus will be described with reference to the drawings. The printing device is, for example, an inkjet printer that prints images such as characters and photographs by ejecting ink, which is an example of a liquid, onto a medium such as paper. The medium loading device receives the medium printed by the printing device.

As shown in FIG. 1, the printing device 11 includes a housing 12. The housing 12 is formed with a discharge port 13 from which the printed medium 99 is discharged. In the present embodiment, the discharge port 13 is formed on the front surface of the housing 12.

The printing device 11 includes a base 14. The base 14 supports the housing 12. In this embodiment, the housing 12 is located above the base 14. In the present embodiment, the upper part in the vertical direction is simply referred to as an upper part, and the lower part in the vertical direction is simply referred to as a lower part.

The printing device 11 is installed on the installation surface 91. The installation surface 91 is, for example, a surface that spreads horizontally. In the present embodiment, the floor surface with which the base 14 contacts is the installation surface 91.
The printing apparatus 11 of the present embodiment is configured so that a roll body 98 on which a medium 99 is wound can be set. In the present embodiment, the roll body 98 is set by being housed in a predetermined position in the housing 12. The printing device 11 prints on the medium 99 unwound from the roll body 98.

The printing device 11 includes a transport unit 15 that transports the medium 99. The transport unit 15 of the present embodiment is located inside the housing 12. The transport unit 15 includes, for example, a first roller 16 and a second roller 17. The medium 99 is conveyed by rotating the first roller 16 and the second roller 17 in a state of sandwiching the medium 99. The transport unit 15 transports the medium 99 from the roll body 98 toward the discharge port 13. That is, the transport unit 15 transports the medium 99 in the housing 12 from the rear surface to the front surface of the housing 12.

The printing device 11 includes a printing unit 18 that prints on the medium 99. The printing unit 18 of the present embodiment is located inside the housing 12. The printing unit 18 prints on the medium 99 by discharging the liquid toward the medium 99. The printing unit 18 prints on the medium 99 conveyed by the conveying unit 15.

The printing device 11 includes a cutting portion 19 that cuts the medium 99. The cutting portion 19 of the present embodiment is located inside the housing 12. The cutting portion 19 includes, for example, a first rotary blade 21 and a second rotary blade 22. The medium 99 is cut by rotating the first rotary blade 21 and the second rotary blade 22 in a state of sandwiching the medium 99. When the long medium 99 continuous from the roll body 98 is cut by the cutting portion 19, it becomes a single-cut medium 99 separated from the roll body 98.

The medium 99 discharged from the discharge port 13 of the printing device 11 is loaded on the medium loading device 31. The medium loading device 31 of the present embodiment is used in a state of being attached to the printing device 11. Therefore, the printing device 11 of the present embodiment includes a mounting portion 24 for mounting the medium loading device 31. The mounting portion 24 is provided, for example, in the housing 12. The mounting portion 24 may be provided on the base 14.

The medium loading device 31 includes a sheet 32 that receives the medium 99 and a take-up shaft 33 that winds up the sheet 32. The medium 99 discharged from the discharge port 13 is loaded on the sheet 32. The sheet 32 is made of, for example, a woven fabric or a non-woven fabric. The sheet 32 of the present embodiment is a long cloth having a rectangular shape.

In the present embodiment, the medium 99 is loaded on the sheet 32 with the printed printing surface facing upward. Therefore, the back surface of the medium 99, which is the surface opposite to the printing surface, comes into contact with the sheet 32. Since the printed surface does not come into contact with the sheet 32, the quality of the printed image is less susceptible to the placement of the medium 99 on the sheet 32.

The take-up shaft 33 is attached to one end of the sheet 32. Therefore, when the take-up shaft 33 rotates, the sheet 32 is taken up by the take-up shaft 33. When the take-up shaft 33 rotates in the direction opposite to that when the sheet 32 is taken up by the take-up shaft 33, the sheet 32 is unwound from the take-up shaft 33.

The sheet 32 is used in a state where a predetermined amount is unwound from the take-up shaft 33. The size of the medium 99 on which the sheet 32 can be loaded changes according to the unwinding amount of the sheet 32 unwound from the take-up shaft 33. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the user increases the unwinding amount of the sheet 32 when the size of the medium 99 is large, and decreases the unwinding amount of the sheet 32 when the size of the medium 99 is small. In this way, the user can change the size of the sheet 32 that receives the medium 99 according to the size of the medium 99. In the present embodiment, the user changes the unwinding amount of the sheet 32, but the unwinding of the sheet 32 depends on the size of the medium 99 detected by the separately provided sensor, regardless of the user's operation. The amount may be changed.

The sheet 32 is rolled into a roll shape by being wound around the winding shaft 33. Therefore, when the medium loading device 31 is not used, the winding shaft 33 winds the sheet 32, so that the medium loading device 31 becomes compact.

In the present embodiment, the sheet 32 has a first end 34 which is an end portion and a second end 35 which is an end portion located opposite to the first end 34. The first end 34 and the second end 35 of the present embodiment are the short sides of the sheet 32. The first end 34 is attached to the take-up shaft 33. The first end 34 is attached to the take-up shaft 33 so as to be parallel to the axis of the take-up shaft 33.

The second end 35 is attached to the printing apparatus 11. The second end 35 can also be removed from the printing apparatus 11. When the second end 35 is removed from the printing device 11, the medium loading device 31 is removed from the printing device 11.

The winding and unwinding of the sheet 32 is performed by rotating the winding shaft 33. Therefore, by attaching the second end 35, which is located opposite to the first end 34 to which the take-up shaft 33 is attached, to the printing apparatus 11, the take-up shaft 33 can be easily rotated. That is, it is easy to adjust the size of the sheet 32.

The medium loading device 31 of the present embodiment includes a mounting shaft 36 attached to the second end 35. The second end 35 is attached to the mounting shaft 36 so as to be parallel to the axis of the mounting shaft 36. Therefore, when the sheet 32 is properly wound by the winding shaft 33, or when the sheet 32 is appropriately wound from the winding shaft 33, the mounting shaft 36 is parallel to the winding shaft 33. The mounting shaft 36 of this embodiment has the same length as the winding shaft 33. The length of the mounting shaft 36 and the take-up shaft 33 is longer than the width of the seat 32, that is, the first end 34 and the second end 35.

In the present embodiment, the second end 35 is attached to the printing device 11 by attaching the attachment shaft 36 to the attachment portion 24. That is, the second end 35 is attached to the printing apparatus 11 via the attachment shaft 36. The mounting portion 24 of the present embodiment is composed of a hook on which the mounting shaft 36 can be hooked. This facilitates the attachment and detachment of the medium loading device 31 to the printing device 11.

In the present embodiment, the second end 35 is attached to the printing apparatus 11 at a position higher than the installation surface 91 and lower than the discharge port 13. For example, the mounting portion 24 is provided at a position higher than the installation surface 91 and lower than the discharge port 13. Therefore, the medium 99 cut by the cutting portion 19 falls from the discharge port 13 toward the sheet 32.

In the present embodiment, the take-up shaft 33 on which the sheet 32 is unwound is placed on the installation surface 91. In this case, the seat 32 is in a posture of being inclined or curved downward from the second end 35 to the take-up shaft 33. Therefore, the medium 99 discharged from the discharge port 13 is loaded on the seat 32 so as to slide on the seat 32. As a result, the discharge of the medium 99 is promoted. It is possible to reduce the possibility that the medium 99 discharged from the discharge port 13 accumulates in the vicinity of the discharge port 13. The medium loading device 31 of the present embodiment is used in a state in which the sheet 32 extends from the printing device 11 toward the front thereof.

The medium loading device 31 may include a support portion 37 that supports the take-up shaft 33 in a rotatable state. The support portion 37 supports both ends of the take-up shaft 33, for example. In the present embodiment, the take-up shaft 33 is placed on the installation surface 91 by placing the support portion 37 on the installation surface 91.

As shown in FIG. 2, the medium loading device 31 may include an automatic winding mechanism 38 that rotates the winding shaft 33 in the direction of winding the sheet 32. The automatic winding mechanism 38 is driven by a user operation. The automatic winding mechanism 38 of the present embodiment is provided on the support portion 37. The automatic winding mechanism 38 may, for example, rotate the winding shaft 33 by the power of electricity, or may rotate the winding shaft 33 by the power of the mainspring.

The sheet 32 of the present embodiment has a third end 41 which is an end different from the first end 34 and the second end 35, and a fourth end 42 which is an end located opposite to the third end 41. Have. The third end 41 and the fourth end 42 of the present embodiment are ends that are long sides of the sheet 32.

As shown in FIG. 3, the medium loading device 31 may include a first adjuster 43 and a second adjuster 44 for pulling the seat 32. The first adjuster 43 is attached to the third end 41 and the printing device 11. The second adjuster 44 is attached to the fourth end 42 and the printing apparatus 11. The third end 41 is pulled by the printing device 11 via the first adjuster 43. The fourth end 42 is pulled by the printing apparatus 11 via the second adjuster 44. That is, the first adjusting tool 43 and the second adjusting tool 44 pull the sheet 32 at the third end 41 and the fourth end 42. If the first adjuster 43 and the second adjuster 44 are made of, for example, rubber, the sheet 32 can be pulled more effectively. By pulling the sheet 32 between the third end 41 and the fourth end 42, the slack between the third end 41 and the fourth end 42 in the sheet 32 is reduced.

As shown in FIG. 4, when the central portion between the third end 41 and the fourth end 42 of the sheet 32 is loosened downward, the tip of the medium 99 is ejected from the discharge port 13. The corner portion of the sheet comes into contact with the sheet 32. That is, a large load is likely to be applied only to the corner portion of the medium 99. At this time, if the slack of the sheet 32 is large, the load generated only on the corner portion of the medium 99 by coming into contact with the sheet 32 tends to be large. As a result, the medium 99 may be bent. On the other hand, by pulling the sheet 32 by the first adjusting tool 43 and the second adjusting tool 44, if the slack of the sheet 32 is small, after the corner portion of the medium 99 comes into contact with the sheet 32, the medium The time until the central portion of 99 in the width direction comes into contact with the sheet 32 is shortened. Therefore, since the period in which a large load is likely to occur only on the corner portion of the medium 99 is short, the load on the medium 99 caused by contact with the sheet 32 can be reduced.

The first adjuster 43 of the present embodiment is fixed to the third end 41 of the seat 32. The second adjuster 44 of the present embodiment is fixed to the fourth end 42 of the seat 32.
The printing device 11 of the present embodiment includes a first mounting portion 25 for mounting the first adjusting tool 43 and a second mounting portion 26 for mounting the second adjusting tool 44. In the present embodiment, the first mounting portion 25 and the second mounting portion 26 are composed of hooks on which the first adjusting tool 43 and the second adjusting tool 44 can be hooked. The first adjusting tool 43 is attached to the first mounting portion 25 by hooking a part thereof on the first mounting portion 25. The second adjusting tool 44 is attached to the second mounting portion 26 by hooking a part thereof on the second mounting portion 26.

The first adjuster 43 and the second adjuster 44 may be configured so that the magnitude of the pulling force on the seat 32 can be adjusted stepwise. For example, the first adjuster 43 and the second adjuster 44 may be composed of a plurality of annular members. The first adjusting tool 43 of the present embodiment includes a first annular member 46, a second annular member 47, and a third annular member 48. The first annular member 46 is connected to the third end 41 and the second annular member 47. The second annular member 47 is connected to the first annular member 46 and the third annular member 48.

The first adjusting tool 43 is attached to the printing apparatus 11 by hooking any of the first annular member 46, the second annular member 47, and the third annular member 48 on the first mounting portion 25. The magnitude of the pulling force on the seat 32 changes depending on which of the first annular member 46, the second annular member 47, and the third annular member 48 is hooked on the first mounting portion 25. In the first adjusting tool 43 of the present embodiment, when the third annular member 48 is hooked on the first mounting portion 25, the force for pulling the seat 32 is the weakest. When the first annular member 46 is hooked on the first mounting portion 25, the force for pulling the seat 32 becomes the strongest.

The second adjusting tool 44 of the present embodiment has a fourth annular member 51, a fifth annular member 52, and a sixth annular member 53. The fourth annular member 51 is connected to the fourth end 42 and the fifth annular member 52. The fifth annular member 52 is connected to the fourth annular member 51 and the sixth annular member 53.

The second adjusting tool 44 is attached to the printing device 11 by hooking any of the fourth annular member 51, the fifth annular member 52, and the sixth annular member 53 on the second mounting portion 26. The magnitude of the pulling force on the seat 32 changes depending on which of the fourth annular member 51, the fifth annular member 52, and the sixth annular member 53 is hooked on the second mounting portion 26. In the second adjusting tool 44 of the present embodiment, when the sixth annular member 53 is hooked on the second mounting portion 26, the force for pulling the seat 32 is the weakest. When the fourth annular member 51 is hooked on the second mounting portion 26, the force for pulling the seat 32 becomes the strongest.

Next, the action and effect of the above embodiment will be described.
(1) By rotating the take-up shaft 33, the size of the sheet 32 unwound from the take-up shaft 33 can be adjusted. That is, the size of the sheet 32 can be adjusted according to the size of the medium 99. As a result, the medium 99 is properly loaded.

(2) The first end 34 is attached to the take-up shaft 33, and the second end 35 is attached to the printing device 11. By attaching the second end 35, which is an end portion opposite to the first end 34 to which the take-up shaft 33 is attached, to the printing device 11, the take-up shaft 33 can be easily rotated. That is, the size of the sheet 32 can be easily adjusted.

(3) The second end 35 is attached to the printing device 11 at a position higher than the installation surface 91 on which the printing device 11 is installed and at a position lower than the discharge port 13. When the take-up shaft 33 on which the sheet 32 is unwound is placed on the installation surface 91, the seat 32 is in a posture of being inclined or curved downward from the second end 35 to the take-up shaft 33. Therefore, the medium 99 discharged from the discharge port 13 is received by the sheet 32 so as to slide on the sheet 32. As a result, the discharge of the medium 99 is promoted. It is possible to reduce the possibility that the medium 99 discharged from the discharge port 13 accumulates in the vicinity of the discharge port 13.

(4) The first adjuster 43 is attached to the third end 41 and the printing device 11, and the second adjuster 44 is attached to the fourth end 42 and the printing device 11. In the unwound sheet 32, the central portion between the third end 41 and the fourth end 42 tends to loosen downward. When the medium 99 is received in a state where the central portion of the sheet 32 is loosened downward, the load of the medium 99 caused by contact with the sheet 32 becomes large. In this regard, according to the above embodiment, the slack of the seat 32 can be reduced by the first adjusting tool 43 and the second adjusting tool 44 pulling the seat 32 together. As a result, the load on the medium 99 caused by the contact of the medium 99 with the sheet 32 can be reduced.

(5) The first adjuster 43 and the second adjuster 44 are configured so that the magnitude of the pulling force on the seat 32 can be adjusted stepwise. Thereby, the force for pulling the sheet 32 can be adjusted to an appropriate size according to the size of the medium 99.

-As shown in FIG. 5, the take-up shaft 33 may be attached to the printing device 11. In this modification, the take-up shaft 33 is attached to the attachment portion 24. In this way, when the medium loading device 31 is not used, the winding shaft 33 winds up the sheet 32, so that the medium loading device 31 can be held by the printing device 11. Therefore, it is easy to use.

When the medium loading device 31 includes the support portion 37, the take-up shaft 33 is attached to the printing device 11 by attaching the support portion 37 to the attachment portion 24. Therefore, the mounting portion 24 is configured to be able to hold the supporting portion 37. The mounting portion 24 may be composed of a bearing that rotatably supports the take-up shaft 33.

In this modification, the take-up shaft 33 is attached to the printing apparatus 11 at a position higher than the installation surface 91 and lower than the discharge port 13. For example, the mounting portion 24 is provided at a position higher than the installation surface 91 and lower than the discharge port 13. Therefore, the medium 99 cut by the cutting portion 19 falls from the discharge port 13 toward the sheet 32.

The first end 34 of the sheet 32 unwound from the take-up shaft 33 is placed on the installation surface 91. When the mounting shaft 36 is provided, the mounting shaft 36 is placed on the installation surface 91, so that the first end 34 is placed on the installation surface 91.

When the first end 34 is placed on the installation surface 91, the sheet 32 is in a posture of being inclined or curved downward from the winding shaft 33 to the first end 34. Therefore, the medium 99 discharged from the discharge port 13 is loaded on the seat 32 so as to slide on the seat 32. As a result, the discharge of the medium 99 is promoted. It is possible to reduce the possibility that the medium 99 discharged from the discharge port 13 accumulates in the vicinity of the discharge port 13.

According to the above modification example, the following effects can be obtained.
(6) The first end 34 is attached to the take-up shaft 33, and the take-up shaft 33 is attached to the printing device 11. In this way, when the medium loading device 31 is not used, the winding shaft 33 winds up the sheet 32, so that the medium loading device 31 can be held by the printing device 11. Therefore, it is easy to use.

(7) The take-up shaft 33 is attached to the printing device 11 at a position higher than the installation surface 91 on which the printing device 11 is installed and at a position lower than the discharge port 13. When the second end 35 of the sheet 32 unwound from the take-up shaft 33 is placed on the installation surface 91, the sheet 32 is in a posture of tilting or bending downward from the take-up shaft 33 to the second end 35. Therefore, the medium 99 discharged from the discharge port 13 is loaded on the seat 32 so as to slide on the seat 32. As a result, the discharge of the medium 99 is promoted. It is possible to reduce the possibility that the medium 99 discharged from the discharge port 13 accumulates in the vicinity of the discharge port 13.

-As shown in FIG. 5, the first adjuster 43 may be removable with respect to the seat 32. For example, the first adjuster 43 may have a mounting member 55 that is removable with respect to the third end 41. The mounting member 55 is connected to the first annular member 46. The mounting member 55 is composed of, for example, a clip. The second adjuster 44 may also be removable from the seat 32. In this case, the second adjuster 44 has a mounting member 55 like the first adjuster 43. By doing so, the positions of the first adjuster 43 and the second adjuster 44 with respect to the seat 32 can be changed, so that the magnitude of the pulling force of the seat 32 can be changed more finely.

The first adjuster 43 may have two annular members or four or more annular members.
The second adjuster 44 may have two annular members or four or more annular members.

-In the seat 32, an annular member may be provided at the second end 35 instead of the mounting shaft 36. In this case, the second end 35 is attached to the printing device 11 by being hooked on the attachment portion 24.

-The first adjuster 43 may be composed of a string. In this case, the first adjuster 43 is attached to the first attachment portion 25 by tying the string to the first attachment portion 25. The magnitude of the pulling force can be adjusted by changing the knot position of the string with respect to the first mounting portion 25. The second adjuster 44 may also be composed of a string like the first adjuster 43.

-Instead of the roll body 98, a single-cut medium 99 may be set in the printing device 11.
-The printing unit 18 is not limited to the inkjet method. The printing unit 18 may be a toner jet method, a thermal printing method, a dot impact method, or the like.

The liquid discharged by the printing unit 18 is not limited to ink, and may be, for example, a liquid material in which particles of a functional material are dispersed or mixed in the liquid. For example, the printing unit 18 may discharge a liquid material containing a material such as an electrode material or a pixel material used for manufacturing a liquid crystal display, an electroluminescence display, a surface emitting display, or the like in a dispersed or dissolved form.
