Description

Detailed Description of the Invention (Industrial Field of Application) The present invention provides a recording head that is movable in two orthogonal coordinate axes in a horizontal plane above the recording surface, and performs recording by this recording head. The present invention relates to a recording device (so-called XY recorder) that automatically records graphs and the like on recording paper on a surface, and particularly relates to a recording device characterized by a mechanism for setting recording paper.

(Prior art) Conventionally, in this type of recording device, when setting recording paper, place the recording paper on the recording surface, operate the operation panel to attract the recording paper to the recording surface, and then manually set the recording paper. The task was to stroke the top of the recording paper to remove the air between the recording surface and the recording paper.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) The conventional recording paper setting method described above requires the troublesome work of stroking the recording paper by hand to remove air between the recording surface and the recording paper. However, it also has the disadvantage of being dangerous because a high voltage is applied to the recording surface.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a recording apparatus in which recording paper can be set using an hour wheel and is not dangerous.

(Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above object, the recording apparatus according to the present invention includes a recording head that is movable in two orthogonal coordinate axes in a horizontal plane above the recording surface. In a recording device that automatically records graphs, etc. on recording paper on a recording surface using a recording head, a roller pressing mechanism that can move the roller in the vertical direction is attached to a sliding part that moves along one coordinate axis direction. The length of this roller is set to be enough to cover the drawing area along the other coordinate axis direction.

According to the above configuration, the object of the present invention can be completely achieved.

(Example) Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the drawings and the like.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of a recording apparatus according to the present invention. In this recording apparatus, a recording head 3 is provided above a recording surface 4 and is movable along two coordinate axes directions orthogonal in a horizontal plane, that is, an X-axis direction and a Y-axis direction. A recording paper 5 is set on the recording surface 4. Various operations are performed on the recording device using an operation panel 6. These basic configurations are the same as those of conventional recording devices.

The sliding portion 7 for moving the recording head 3 along the X-axis direction is provided with a push-pull solenoid 9 for pressing the roller 8 against the recording paper 5. One push-pull solenoid 9 is arranged near both ends of the sliding portion 7. This push-pull solenoid 9 corresponds to the roller pressing mechanism in the gist of the present invention.

FIG. 2 is a fully enlarged side view of the push-pull solenoid 9 as seen from the direction of the operation panel 6 with the operation panel 6 shown in FIG. 1 removed. The push-pull solenoid 9 is provided with a rod 0, and this rod 0 is a trap that moves to the earthwork in response to the operation of the book nibble solenoid 9. A roller 8 is rotatably attached to the lower end of the rod 10. The length of the roller 8 is set to be long enough to cover the drawing area that has slipped in the Y-axis direction 2.

Next, the operation of the above embodiment will be explained. After setting the recording paper S on the recording surface 4, when the operation panel 6 is operated, the two push-pull solenoids 9 are operated, and the 10-pin O moves downward as shown in FIG. Press it against the recording paper 5. Thereafter, when the sliding portion 7 moves in the X-axis direction IK, the roller 8 rotates and moves while holding down the recording paper S. At this time, the air between the recording paper S and the recording surface 4 is removed, and the sliding portion F completes its movement in the X-axis direction 1, thereby completing the setting of the recording paper S.

When the setting of the recording paper S is completed, the push-pull solenoid 9 is operated, and the rod 10 is moved upward as shown in FIG. Therefore, the roller 8 separates from the recording paper 5, and the recording apparatus becomes ready for printing.

(Effects of the Invention) As explained above, the present invention provides a roller pressing mechanism that can move the roller in the vertical direction on a sliding part that moves along one coordinate axis, and the length of this roller is Since the length is set to cover the drawing area along the other coordinate axis direction, air between the recording paper and the recording surface can be automatically removed. Another advantage is that recording paper can be set safely.
