INKJET RECORDING APPARATUS

摘要

An inkjet recording apparatus includes a support member having a plurality of ribs and supporting the sheet; a head disposed above the support member and ejecting ink to the sheet supported by the support member; and at least one contact portion disposed upstream of the head and configured to come in contact with the sheet so as to make the sheet a waved shape. The support member includes a first support portion comprising at least one first guide portions disposed corresponding to the at least one contact portion, and a plurality of second guide portions disposed corresponding to the plurality of ribs and disposed above the plurality of first guide portions. The support member further comprises a second support portion comprising a third guide portion disposed downstream of the first support portion.

1. An inkjet recording apparatus comprising:
a support member having a plurality of ribs apart from each other in a width direction which intersects with a feeding direction which is a direction in which a sheet is fed, and configured to support a lower surface of the sheet at an upper end of each of the plurality of ribs; a head disposed above the support member and configured to eject ink to the sheet supported by the support member from nozzles; and at least one contact portion disposed upstream of the nozzles in the feeding direction and each disposed between corresponding two of the plurality of ribs adjacent to each other in the width direction, and configured to come in contact with an upper surface of the sheet in a state in which a lower surface of the sheet is supported by the plurality of ribs so as to make the sheet a waved shape, wherein the support member comprises: a first support portion comprising disposed downstream of a landing area of the support member and the plurality of ribs of the support member in the feeding direction, the landing area being an area on which ink droplets ejected from the nozzle land, wherein the first support portion comprises (a)at least one first guide portion disposed corresponding to the at least one contact portion in the width direction and located above the landing area, and (b) a plurality of second guide portions respectively disposed corresponding to the plurality of ribs in the width direction and located above the at least one first guide portion; and a second support portion comprising a third guide portion disposed downstream of the first support portion in the feeding direction, wherein one of opposite end portions of the third guide portion which is closer to the first support portion is located below the first guide portion.
