Abstract
There is provided an ink jet recording apparatus that can correct bending of an ink jet head with a compact structure. First supporting frames 122 that support ink jet heads 110C, 110M, 110Y, and 110K and second supporting frames 170 that support a part of ink supply sections supplying ink to the ink jet heads 110C, 110M, 110Y, and 110K are mounted on a mount 300. The first supporting frames 122 are mounted on the mount 300 while both end portions of the first supporting frames 122 in a longitudinal direction are supported. Each of the second supporting frames 170 is provided with a bending correction mechanism 340 that applies a pressing force to the first supporting frame 122 to correct the bending of the first supporting frame 122.
Claims20
An ink jet recording apparatus comprising:
- a plurality of recording units each of which comprises a long ink jet head and an ink supply section supplying ink to the ink jet head;
- a plurality of supporting frames each of which comprises a first supporting frame supporting the ink jet head and a second supporting frame supporting at least a part of the ink supply section;
- a mount that comprises a plurality of first supporting frame supports supporting both ends of the first supporting frames in a longitudinal direction and a plurality of second supporting frame supports supporting the second supporting frames;
- and
- a bending correction unit that are provided on the second supporting frames and apply pressing forces or tensile forces to at least a part of the first supporting frames to correct bending of the first supporting frames in a case in which the first supporting frames are supported by the first supporting frame supports.
