Liquid discharge device and liquid discharge apparatus

A liquid discharge device comprising:

• a liquid discharge head configured to discharge a liquid;
• a head holder configured to hold the liquid discharge head;
• a sub-carriage configured to hold the head holder;
• a carriage configured to hold the sub-carriage and move in a main scanning direction;
• an adjuster supported by the sub-carriage;
• and
• a guide configured to guide the sub-carriage to be movable in a vertical direction,
• wherein the carriage includes a reference shaft extending in the main scanning direction,
• the reference shaft supports the sub-carriage via the adjuster and positions the sub-carriage in the vertical direction,
• the adjuster adjusts an inclination of the sub-carriage with respect to the reference shaft,
• the sub-carriage includes a sub-reference shaft extending in parallel with the reference shaft, and
• the guide is configured to allow the sub-reference shaft to move in the vertical direction while restricting a movement of the sub-reference shaft in a sub-scanning direction perpendicular to the main scanning direction.
