PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a liquid wiping device capable of preventing adhesion of droplets, which occur during wiping, to a power source, and to provide a liquid discharge device and a maintenance method of the liquid discharge device.SOLUTION: A liquid wiping device 1 includes a wiper mechanism 10, a wiper cleaning mechanism 11, and a moving mechanism 12 for moving the wiper mechanism 10. The moving mechanism 12 includes a guide member 23, a link mechanism 24, a power source 25 which enables a wiper 13 to move, and a power transmission member 26 which transmits the power from the power source 25 to the wiper mechanism 10 through the link mechanism 24. A connection member 27 swings and an arm 28 swings to unfold or fold the link mechanism 24. In a power source holding member 12a, the power source 25 is disposed in a position on a trajectory of the extended wiper 13.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 4 |
