Publication number: 20260257487Abstract: The manufacturing efficiency of the inkjet recording apparatus is enhanced, and eventually, the productivity thereof is improved. An inkjet recording apparatus includes a print head, a controller, and a connection cable that connects the print head and the controller and supplies ink from the controller to the print head. The print head includes a head main body to which the connection cable is connected and that supplies ink to a nozzle via the connection cable, and a head module that is mountable on and dismountable from the head main body and accommodates the nozzle, a charging electrode, a deflection electrode, and a gutter. The connection cable or the head main body is provided with a valve that opens and closes an ink supply path to the nozzle. The head module is provided with a high-voltage generation unit that generates a high voltage to be applied to the deflection electrode.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 23, 2026Publication date: September 3, 2026Applicant: KEYENCE CORPORATIONInventors: Takanori Ando, Minoru Taneda, Atsushi Kitamura

Patent number: 11298943Abstract: To prevent a printing head not placed on a cleaning placing unit from being cleaned and prevent contamination of an ambient environment by cleaning liquid. An ink jet recording system includes a placement detecting unit configured to detect that a printing head 1 is placed on a cleaning placing unit 200. The placement detecting unit is configured to, when detecting that the printing head 1 is placed, transmit a signal based on placement confirmation for the printing head 1 to a controller connected to the printing head 1 placed on the cleaning placing unit 200.Type: GrantFiled: August 7, 2020Date of Patent: April 12, 2022Assignee: KEYENCE CORPORATIONInventors: Atsushi Kitamura, Takanori Ando, Minoru Taneda, Mamoru Idaka

Patent number: 8534558Abstract: In an optical information reader, an entire size is reduced while a space for accommodating an imaging unit, a space for accommodating a cable of an external interface, and a space for accommodating plural boards in which circuits of a signal processing unit are accommodated are secured. An entire size of a housing is determined based on sizes of a main board and an imaging unit to realize an optical information reader having a minimum shape. The main board has the largest area as a board, and a CPU and a memory are mounted thereon. The imaging unit includes a camera module, a lighting LED unit, and a marker. The main board is disposed near an internal wall of a housing. Other functions are functionally divided into sub-boards and disposed around a frame body, and a connection portion to the cable is accommodated in the frame body to achieve miniaturization.Type: GrantFiled: August 26, 2010Date of Patent: September 17, 2013Assignee: Keyence CorporationInventors: Akihiro Miyoshi, Minoru Taneda, Yusuke Otsubo
