Abstract
A transport device includes a transporting belt, which includes a support face that adhesively supports a medium, and which transports the adhered medium, a heating unit that heats the transporting belt before the medium is supported at the support face, a pressing unit that is provided downstream of the heating unit in a movement direction of the transporting belt and that presses the medium against the support face, a temperature detection unit that detects a temperature of at least a part of the support face, from the heating unit to the pressing unit in the movement direction, and a control unit that controls the heating unit based on a detection result of the temperature detection unit.
Claims6
A transport device comprising:
- a transporting belt including a support face that adhesively supports a medium, and configured to transport the adhered medium;
- a heating unit configured to heat the transporting belt before the medium is supported at the support face;
- a pressing unit provided downstream of the heating unit in a movement direction of the transporting belt, and configured to press the medium against the support face;
- a temperature detection unit configured to detect a temperature of at least a part of the support face, from the heating unit to the pressing unit in the movement direction;
- and
- a control unit configured to control the heating unit based on a detection result of the temperature detection unit.
A recording device comprising:
- a transporting belt including a support face that adhesively supports a medium, and configured to transport the adhered medium;
- a recording unit configured to perform recording on the transported medium;
- a heating unit configured to heat the transporting belt before the medium is supported at the support face;
- a pressing unit provided downstream of the heating unit in a movement direction of the transporting belt, and configured to press the medium against the support face;
- a temperature detection unit configured to detect a temperature of at least a part of the support face, from the heating unit to the pressing unit in the movement direction;
- and
- a control unit configured to control the heating unit based on a detection result of the temperature detection unit.
