Description

【0001】
【産業上の利用分野】
本発明は、作画プレート上の記録紙に所望の作画を行う記録装置に関するもので、特に記録紙幅が大きい形式の記録装置に用いられる作画プレートの構造の改善に関する。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来のこの種の記録装置を、図2及び図3を用いて説明する。図2及び図3において、10はプラテン、11は作画プレート、12は作画プレート、13はレール、14は記録紙、15は支柱、111、112及び113は、それぞれ作画プレート11の空気吸引穴、ネジ穴及び平滑面である。
【0003】
図2に示すように、この種の記録装置では、記録紙14はプラテン10の作画プレート11を横断するように所定の速度で移送される。この時、記録紙14にしわ等が発生しないようまた安定した移送を行えるよう、プラテン10の内部の空気を吸引するファンを設けて記録紙14を作画プレート11の平滑面113に平らに支持されるよう構成されている。
【0004】
作画ヘッド12は、図示の例ではインクジェット記録ヘッドであるが、作画プレートの平滑面に平行に、かつその長手方向に延びるレール13に取り付けられている。そして、図示しないヘッド移送機構によりこのレール13に沿って記録を行いながら移動可能に構成されている。
【0005】
この従来装置の作画プレート11は、図3に示すように、所定の間隔でネジ穴112が設けられた空気吸引穴111と平滑面113とを有する一枚のプレートから構成されていた。この一枚のプレートを複数の支柱で支えるよう構成していた。
【0006】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
以上のような従来装置では、記録紙幅の大きい(おおむねA3サイズを超えるもの)記録紙14を用いる記録装置では、作画プレート11を全幅に渡って平滑度を所定の精度内で製造することが困難で、かつ高コストの要因となっていた。
この発明は、この点について改善するためになされたものである。
【0007】
【課題を解決するための手段】
このため、この発明においては、
記録紙を吸引して当該記録紙を平滑に支持するため、平滑でかつ複数の空気吸引穴が形成された作画プレート、この作画プレートを所定の速度で横断するように上記記録紙を移送する記録紙移送手段、この移送される記録紙の上記作画プレート上にある部位に所定の記録を行う記録ヘッドとを有した記録装置において、上記作画プレートを、複数の空気吸引穴と平滑面及び連結部からなるほぼ同一形状の小プレートで構成し、これらの小プレートを複数連結して構成した。
【0008】
【実施例】
以下、この発明を図面を参照して説明する。
この発明では、図1に示すように、作画プレートを複数の小さな作画プレート11(以下、この作画プレートを小作画プレートという。)を複数連結した構成を有している。
【0009】
各小作画プレート11は、空気吸引穴111と、平滑面113及び両端部に形成される連結部となるネジ穴112部分を有している。この小作画プレート11を必要な長さ分だけ横に連結する。そして、この際において各連結部(2つの作画プレート11の重なり部分)のネジ穴112が同一の位置となるように構成されている。
【0010】
そして、これらの各小作画プレート11は、その連結部をもってプラテン10の底面に立設された支柱15に支持される。
【0011】
これらの小作画プレート11は、例えば金型で製作することができる。したがって、各小作画プレートを同一形状で、また安価に製作することができる。さらに、このように金型で製作することで、同時に空気吸引穴111も製作でき、また平滑面113の平滑度も一定の範囲内に収める事ができる。
【0012】
【発明の効果】
以上説明したように、この発明によれば、記録装置の作画プレートを安価に、且つ高精度に製作できる。また、A3サイズを超える大サイズの記録紙幅をもつ記録紙を用いる記録装置においても、上述した小作画プレートを必要な数だけ連結する事で作画プレートを製作できる利点がある。

[0001]
[Industrial application fields]
The present invention relates to a recording apparatus that performs a desired image on a recording sheet on an image forming plate, and more particularly to an improvement in the structure of an image forming plate used in a recording apparatus having a large recording sheet width.
[0002]
[Prior art]
A conventional recording apparatus of this type will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3, 10 is a platen, 11 is a drawing plate, 12 is a drawing plate, 13 is a rail, 14 is recording paper, 15 is a support, 111, 112 and 113 are air suction holes of the drawing plate 11, respectively. Screw holes and smooth surfaces.
[0003]
As shown in FIG. 2, in this type of recording apparatus, the recording paper 14 is transported at a predetermined speed so as to cross the drawing plate 11 of the platen 10. At this time, a fan for sucking the air inside the platen 10 is provided so that the recording paper 14 is flatly supported on the smooth surface 113 of the drawing plate 11 so that the recording paper 14 is not wrinkled and can be stably transferred. It is comprised so that.
[0004]
The drawing head 12 is an ink jet recording head in the illustrated example, but is attached to a rail 13 extending parallel to the smooth surface of the drawing plate and extending in the longitudinal direction thereof. And it is comprised so that it can move, recording along this rail 13 with the head transfer mechanism which is not shown in figure.
[0005]
As shown in FIG. 3, the drawing plate 11 of this conventional apparatus is composed of a single plate having an air suction hole 111 provided with screw holes 112 at a predetermined interval and a smooth surface 113. This single plate was configured to be supported by a plurality of columns.
[0006]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
In the conventional apparatus as described above, in the recording apparatus using the recording paper 14 having a large recording paper width (generally exceeding the A3 size), it is difficult to manufacture the drawing plate 11 within a predetermined accuracy over the entire width. And it was a factor of high cost.
The present invention has been made to improve on this point.
[0007]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
For this reason, in the present invention,
A drawing plate that is smooth and has a plurality of air suction holes in order to suck the recording paper and smoothly support the recording paper, and a recording that transports the recording paper so as to cross the drawing plate at a predetermined speed In a recording apparatus having paper transporting means and a recording head for performing predetermined recording on a portion of the transported recording paper on the drawing plate, the drawing plate includes a plurality of air suction holes, a smooth surface, and a connecting portion. The small plate of the substantially same shape which consists of these was comprised, and these small plates were connected and comprised.
[0008]
【Example】
The present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.
In the present invention, as shown in FIG. 1, the drawing plate has a configuration in which a plurality of small drawing plates 11 (hereinafter, this drawing plate is referred to as a small drawing plate) are connected.
[0009]
Each small drawing plate 11 has an air suction hole 111, a smooth surface 113, and a screw hole 112 portion serving as a connecting portion formed at both ends. This small drawing plate 11 is connected horizontally by a required length. At this time, the screw holes 112 of each connecting portion (the overlapping portion of the two drawing plates 11) are configured to be at the same position.
[0010]
Each of these small drawing plates 11 is supported by a support column 15 erected on the bottom surface of the platen 10 with the connecting portion.
[0011]
These small drawing plates 11 can be manufactured by a mold, for example. Therefore, each small drawing plate can be manufactured in the same shape and at a low cost. Further, by manufacturing with the mold in this way, the air suction hole 111 can be manufactured at the same time, and the smoothness of the smooth surface 113 can be kept within a certain range.
[0012]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, according to the present invention, the drawing plate of the recording apparatus can be manufactured at low cost and with high accuracy. In addition, even in a recording apparatus using a recording paper having a large recording paper width exceeding A3 size, there is an advantage that the drawing plate can be manufactured by connecting the necessary number of small drawing plates.
