PURPOSE:To excute the easy unification of the flexible tubes connecting a sub ink tank in a flat shape state, by using the flexible body which is preliminarily so formed as to be able to receive the flexible tubes. CONSTITUTION:One ends of the plural flexible tubes 3 for ink suction and for ink supply are connected to the back surface 5a of a sub ink tank 5 and the ends on the sub ink tank 5 side are pinched with the support part 5b of the unified body to the sub ink tank to form a flat band state. The other side ends thereof pinched with the support part 10 installed to the frame of an apparatus to form a flat band state in the same way. The flexible tubes 3 between the sub ink tank 5 and the support part 10 are kept in a flat shape state with a flexible body 2. The flexible body 2 is formed in the shape into which plural tubes are unified and the numbers of the tubes are provided according to the numbers of above-mentioned flexible tubes 3. The hole 1 is preliminarily formed by a size enough to easily pass the flexible tube 3 and to be able to be deformed smoothly when a carriage is moved. |
