Image recording apparatus

摘要

An image recording apparatus includes: a rotating drum including a hollow cylinder around which a recording medium is guided while the rotating drum rotates; a discharge head that discharges liquid onto the recording medium guided around the outer surface of the rotating drum; and an air flow generator that generates an air flow that passes through the inside of the hollow cylinder of the rotating drum. The rotating drum further includes, in the hollow cylinder, a shaft member that has an axis identical to a rotation axis of the rotating drum and supporting members that are plate-shaped and that extend from the shaft member in the radial direction of the rotating drum and support the hollow cylinder, and the rotating drum rotates in a rotation direction about the shaft member. Each of the supporting members includes at least one air hole penetrating therethrough in the rotation direction.

1. An image recording apparatus, comprising:
a rotating drum including a hollow cylinder around which a recording medium is guided while the rotating drum rotates; a discharge head, opposing an outer surface of the rotating drum, that discharges liquid onto the recording medium guided around the outer surface of the rotating drum; and an air flow generator that generates an air flow that enters the hollow cylinder axially, passes through the inside of the hollow cylinder of the rotating drum, and exits the hollow cylinder axially; wherein the rotating drum further includes, in the hollow cylinder, a shaft member that has an axis identical to a rotation axis of the rotating drum and supporting members that are plate-shaped and that extend from the shaft member in the radial direction of the rotating drum and support the hollow cylinder, and the rotating drum rotates in a rotation direction about the shaft member, wherein each of the supporting members includes at least one air hole penetrating therethrough in the rotation direction.
