Abstract: A liquid ejection apparatus includes a first liquid storage container, a second liquid storage container, a first terminal member, a second terminal member, and a circuit board. The first liquid storage container stores liquid to be supplied to a liquid ejection head that ejects the liquid to an ejection medium. The second liquid storage container is arranged side by side in a first direction with respect to the first liquid storage container. The first terminal member comes into contact with the liquid stored within the first liquid storage container. The second terminal member comes into contact with liquid stored within the second liquid storage container. The circuit board comes into contact with the first terminal member and the second terminal member and relatively moves in the first direction with respect to the first liquid storage container.

Abstract: A liquid discharge apparatus includes a liquid container and an operating member. The liquid container is configured to introduce liquid from a liquid introducing portion to an inside. The operating member is configured to rotate around a rotation shaft in a first direction from a first position for covering the liquid introducing portion to move to a second position for exposing the liquid introducing portion, and rotate in a second direction opposite to the first direction from the second position to move to the first position. The operating member includes a plug member and a covering portion. The plug member is retained to the operating member by a retaining member and configured to plug the liquid introducing portion at the first position. The covering portion is configured to cover the plug member in a direction intersecting with the first direction.

Abstract: A liquid discharge apparatus includes a liquid discharge head to discharge liquid to a medium and a liquid storage container. The liquid storage container includes a reservoir portion, a liquid injection portion, a liquid holding unit, and a liquid guide portion. The reservoir portion reserves the liquid that is supplied to the liquid discharge head. The liquid injection portion allows a liquid injection container for injecting the liquid into the reservoir portion to be inserted in the liquid injection portion in a first direction. The liquid holding unit is provided at a position spaced apart from the liquid injection portion and is capable of holding the liquid. The liquid guide portion guides the liquid from the liquid injection portion to the liquid holding unit in a second direction intersecting with the first direction.

Abstract: A recording apparatus includes a recording head having discharge orifices arranged on a discharge orifice surface, a cap, a wiper, and a moving unit that moves the wiper in a first direction. When the cap covers the discharge orifice surface, a first member is disposed at an inside wall of the cap at a position near a first side of a region having the discharge orifices, and a second member is disposed at another inside wall of the cap at a position near a second side of the region having the discharge orifices. The first side faces in a direction opposite to the first direction and the second side faces in the first direction. In a direction normal to the discharge orifice surface, a distance between the second member and the discharge orifice surface is smaller than a distance between the first member and the discharge orifice surface.

Abstract: A recording apparatus includes a wiper, a recording head having a step portion and an ejection port surface supporting an ejection port, and a moving unit to relatively move the wiper and the recording head so that the wiper moves with respect to the recording head in relative movement in a first direction. In a first wiping, the relative movement causes the wiper to stop at or in vicinity of the step portion, or pass at or in the vicinity of the step portion at a speed lower than a speed at which the wiper wipes an area in which the ejection port is arranged. In a second wiping performed after the first wiping, the relative movement causes the wiper to pass through the step portion of the recording head and wipe the recording head in the first direction toward the area, and thereafter wipe the area.

Abstract: A recording apparatus includes a recording head having an ejection port surface and a step portion, a blade to wipe the ejection port surface, and a moving unit. A plurality of ink ejection ports is arranged on the ejection port surface. The moving unit performs relative movement of the blade and the recording head by moving the blade or the recording head in a first direction to cause the blade to wipe a wiped surface including the ejection port surface, from the step portion to an area in which the plurality of ink ejection ports is arranged. The moving unit performs the relative movement so that a first relative velocity of the relative movement when the blade passes the step portion is higher than a second relative velocity of the relative movement when the blade, that has been in contact with the wiped surface, is separated from the wiped surface.

Abstract: Provided is a platform door device which makes it possible to reduce the length of time for a replacement operation when a panel-shaped portion of a door is damaged. The platform door device comprises a door, and a driving mechanism for moving the door forwardly and backwardly to close and open a gate on a platform. The driving mechanism includes a motor, a rotation body adapted to be rotated by the motor, and a driven body adapted to be driven according to the rotation of the rotation body so as to move the door, and the door has a panel-shaped main body, and a base segment detachably joined to the main body and attached to the driven body.
