PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a maintenance device in a fluid jet apparatus which prevents action timings of a plurality of parts driven by the same driving source from overlapping, and which can make the driving source relatively small, and to provide the fluid jet apparatus. SOLUTION: A slider 55 which constitutes the maintenance device takes four states of a "state 1" through a "state 4" according to positions in the process of performing its reciprocating linear motion. A cap 41 is arranged at a capping position in the "state 1" and "state 2", and is arranged at a retreat position in the "state 3" and "state 4". A wiper 42 is arranged at a retreat position in the "state 1" through "state 3", and is arranged at a wiping position in the "state 4". Moreover, an atmosphere opening valve 58 is arranged at a valve opening position in the "state 1", and is arranged at a valve closing position in the "state 2" through "state 4". The cap 41, the wiper 42 and the atmosphere opening valve 58 are set to exclusive action timings to be prevented from acting simultaneously. COPYRIGHT: (C)2008,JPO&INPIT |
