    Abstract: A sheet storage device includes first and second frames, a cover, and a torque retention mechanism that includes a shaft to rotate in conjunction with pivoting of the cover, and generates a resistance torque against rotation of the shaft when the cover pivots to a closed position. The torque retention mechanism includes a first torque retention mechanism and a second torque retention mechanism. A shaft of the first torque retention mechanism is attached to a first support part disposed on a first frame side, while a shaft of the second torque retention mechanism is attached to a second support part disposed on a second frame side.

    Abstract: An inkjet recording apparatus includes a first belt transport section having a first transport belt, a recording section, a second belt transport section having a second transport belt, and a guide mechanism provided in an upstream-side end part of the second belt transport section. The guide mechanism includes a guide support member and a biasing member. The guide support member has formed therein a guide portion to pass the recording medium held by attraction on the first transport belt to the second transport belt and a positioning portion to keep a fixed gap between the guide portion and the transport surface of the first belt transport section, and is arranged to be swingable in a movement direction of the first belt transport section. The biasing member biases the guide support member in a direction approaching the first belt transport section.

    Abstract: A sheet conveyance device includes a cover member, a sheet stacking tray, a control portion, and an optical sensor. The cover member has a stationary rib that enters and retreats from an optical path along with opening and closing of the cover member, and a swingable rib that enters and retreats from the optical path along with up-down movement of the sheet on the sheet stacking tray. The control portion, based on an amount of received light incident on the optical sensor, detects an opened state and a closed state of the cover member and an up-down position of the sheet stacked on the sheet stacking tray.

    Abstract: A sheet storage device includes a housing, a sheet stacking tray, a shaft, a suspension mechanism, a driving device, and a drive transmission portion. The suspension mechanism includes a plurality of winding pulleys and a plurality of wires. The drive transmission portion includes a plurality of driving gears and a plurality of driven gears. The plurality of winding pulleys permit the engagement positions of the plurality of driven gears with respect to the plurality of driving gears to be changed in the circumferential direction of the shaft. The drive transmission portion changes the respective engagement positions of the plurality of driven gears and thereby changes the respective relative positions of the fixing portions of the plurality of winding pulleys in the rotation direction. This permits adjustment of the respective unwound lengths of the plurality of wires.

    Abstract: An inkjet recording apparatus includes a first belt transporting unit for transporting a recording medium by absorbing and supporting, a recording unit disposed to face the first belt transporting unit to eject ink to the recording medium, a second belt transporting unit disposed adjacent to the first belt transporting unit on a downstream side in a transport direction to transport the recording medium by absorbing and supporting, and a transport guiding unit disposed to face a transporting surface of the second transporting unit. A surface of the transport guiding unit facing the second transporting unit is provided with a plurality of ribs extending in the transport direction. Protruding heights of the ribs with respect to the transporting surface of the second transporting unit are gradually decreased from an outermost rib to an innermost rib in a width direction of the recording medium.
