<p>A capping device (60) including: (a) a cap structure (71, 72) that is to be movable, relative to a body (2), in a contact direction toward a surface (2a) of the object so as to be brought into contact with the surface (2a), for thereby covering the surface of the object; (b) a transmission mechanism (50) configured to transmit, to the cap structure, a pressing force (F1) that causes the cap structure to be brought into the surface (2a); and (c) a support member (77) that supports the transmission mechanism. The transmission mechanism being configured to restrain increase and reduction of the pressing force (F1), such that the pressing force transmitted to the cap structure is held in a given amount range at least when a distance between the cap structure and the support member in the contact direction is in a given distance range while the cap structure is in contact with the surface (2a). Also disclosed is a liquid ejection apparatus (1) including the above-described capping device (60).</p> |
