20190135565 · 2019-05-09 ·

A recording medium conveyance device of an inkjet recording device includes a belt-form member, two conveyance rollers, a driver, a supporting board, a suction unit, and a guide roller. The recording medium is placed on the outer circumferential surface of the belt-form member. The belt-form member is pulled over the two conveyance rollers which cause the belt-form member to circulate. The driver causes at least one of the two conveyance rollers to rotate. The supporting board supports the inner circumferential surface of the belt-form member on a plane. The suction unit pulls the recording medium placed on the belt-form member to the outer circumferential surface of the belt-form member. The guide roller is arranged between at least one of the two conveyance rollers and the supporting board and supports the inner circumferential surface of the belt-form member.

A feeding device for digital processing machine includes a paper passage, a friction device, and a sheet-feeding module. The sheet-feeding module is disposed in the paper passage and opposite to the friction device. The sheet-feeding module includes a sheet-feeding roller, a first idle wheel, and a belt. The sheet-feeding roller is for separating a sheet with the friction device. The first idle wheel is disposed in the upstream side of the sheet-feeding roller. The belt encircles the first idle wheel and the axle of the sheet-feeding roller. The sheet-feeding module rotates from a first position to a second position when the sheet-feeding roller rotates, such that the belt contacts the sheet when the sheet-feeding module is at the second position.
