A recording head of the present disclosure includes an ink ejection surface where a plurality of ink ejection ports for ejecting ink onto a recording medium are disposed. A plurality of cleaning liquid supply ports for supplying a cleaning liquid are disposed on an upstream side with respect to the ink ejection ports in a wiping direction which is a direction in which a wiper wipes the ink ejection surface. The plurality of cleaning liquid supply ports each have a chamfer portion formed at a portion thereof that intersects a surface to be wiped by the wiper, the chamfer portion being R-shaped in section.

An ink for ink-jet recording apparatuses, includes water, a pigment dispersion, and a super-penetrating agent and a high SP organic solvent respectively having a predetermined solubility parameter (SP value). All of differences (ΔSPs) between SP values of the neighboring organic solvents are from 0.5 to 5.0 in order of SP values thereof, and the difference of SPmax−SPmin is 12 or less in which SPmax is the highest SP value of an organic solvent among organic solvents in the high SP organic solvent and SPmin is the smallest SP value of an organic solvent among organic solvents in the super-penetrating agent.

An inkjet recording apparatus includes a recording head, a wiper member, a cleaning liquid supply device, a cleaning liquid flow path, and a controller. The cleaning liquid flow path includes a vertical tubular member connected to the cleaning liquid supply device and extending upward, and a horizontal tubular member connected to an upper end of the vertical tubular member and extending in a horizontal direction. The controller extrudes a cleaning liquid in at least a part of the cleaning liquid flow path from a cleaning liquid supply port before control of a cleaning operation for wiping an ink ejection surface of the recording head, thereby performing control of an air bubble release operation of the cleaning liquid flow path.

A recovery system for a recording head according to the present disclosure includes a wiper, a drive mechanism, and a control portion. The control portion is able to execute a recovery operation for a recording head that includes a first ink pushing-out operation that forcibly pushes out ink, a first wiping operation that wipes away purged ink, and a second wiping operation that moves the wiper in a direction opposite to the first direction. The wiper includes a first wiping surface, a second wiping surface, and an upper surface. The upper surface is provided with a first step portion that becomes higher from a first upper end portion of the first wiping surface to a second upper end portion of the second wiping surface.

An inkjet recording apparatus includes a recording head, a conveyance belt, a control portion, an ink receiver, an ink discharging flow path, and a liquid supply mechanism. The recording head includes a plurality of nozzles for ejecting ink. The conveyance belt has a plurality of first openings and conveys a recording medium. The control portion executes flushing in which the ink is ejected through the nozzles of the recording head to pass through any of the plurality of first openings. The ink receiver is opposite disposed to be opposed to the recording head via the conveyance belt and receives the ink that has passed through the first openings during execution of the flushing. The ink discharging flow path is connected to the ink receiver. The liquid supply mechanism supplies a liquid capable of dissolving the ink into the ink receiver.

A developing device includes a developing roller, a toner supplying roller, a regulation blade, a casing, a toner receiver support member, a toner receiver member, and a vibration generator. The toner receiver member is disposed along a longitudinal direction of the toner receiver support member facing the developing roller, and has a toner receiving surface inclined downward from the image-carrier side toward the toner-supplying-roller side. The toner receiving surface is disposed to be inclined so as to rise from the toner-supplying-roller side toward the image-carrier side. The toner receiving surface has a plurality of grooves formed therein to be inclined to approach a center part of the toner receiving surface from each end side of the toner receiving surface in its longitudinal direction, from an edge of the toner receiving surface on the image-carrier side toward an edge of the toner receiving surface on the toner-supplying-roller side.
摘要:
A cap unit includes a cap, a tank, a first pipe, a second pipe, a pump, and a vent port. The cap is attached to and detached from a nozzle surface of an inkjet head. The tank stores humidifying liquid. The first pipe and the second pipe connect the cap and the tank. The pump is provided in the first pipe and pumping air in the tank into the cap. The vent port is provided in the cap.
