<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an inkjet cleaning device that can efficiently and reliably clean a nozzle surface and can prevent damage to the nozzle surface. <P>SOLUTION: The cleaning device (31) that cleans the nozzle surface (23a) of the inkjet head (21) in which a plurality of nozzles (28) are opened includes: a cleaning head (32); and a supplying part (33). The cleaning head (32) includes a supply port (43) opposed to the nozzle surface (23a) and is movable along the nozzle surface (23a). The supplying part (33) is configured to supply liquid (L) for cleaning the nozzle surface (23a) to the supply port (43) of the cleaning head (32). The supplying part bulges the liquid (L) from the supply port (43) to the nozzle surface (23a) to form, in the cleaning head (32), a liquid wipe part (61) that is in contact with the nozzle surface (23a). <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
