A conveying device includes a pair of rotary bodies and a movable member. The pair or rotary bodies includes a first rotary body disposed in a first region, and a second rotary body disposed in a second region and facing the first rotary body across a sheet conveyance passage through which a sheet applied with liquid is conveyed. The movable member is disposed upstream from the first rotary body in a sheet conveyance direction. The movable member is configured to move between the first region and the second region with respect to the sheet conveyance passage. The movable member is configured to move to the second region in a middle of conveyance of the sheet between the first rotary body and the second rotary body.

A conveying device includes a plurality of rotating bodies and a plurality of projecting rotators. The rotating bodies are spaced apart in a sheet conveyance direction in which a sheet is conveyed. The projecting rotators are spaced apart in the sheet conveyance direction on a side of an opposite face opposite a liquid applied face of the sheet. Each of the projecting rotator has a plurality of projections projecting radially outward. The rotating bodies are arranged to contact the projecting rotators. A contact pressure of the rotating bodies with the projecting rotators is smaller on an upstream side than on a downstream side in the sheet conveyance direction. One of an interval between the rotating bodies in the sheet conveyance direction and an interval between the projecting rotators in the sheet conveyance direction is smaller on the upstream side than on the downstream side in the sheet conveyance direction.

A printer includes a curved path through which a medium is transported toward a line head, a transport roller pair provided in the curved path, pinching the medium by a driving roller and a driven roller at a pinching position, and transporting the medium, a gate portion having a contact surface configured to switch between a contact position located upstream of the pinching position in a transport direction in the curved path and a retreat position at which the contact surface does not contact with the medium, and a guide portion guiding a tip of the transported medium to the contact surface located at the contact position.

Examples disclosed herein relate to a device including a flap. In examples, the device includes a star wheel to advance a medium along an output media path; and a flap disposed to cover the star wheel in a first position and to be moved by a force applied by a medium being advanced along the output media path to a second position. In examples, the medium is to be directed toward an output tray when the flap is in the second position.

One of an interval between the rotating bodies in the sheet conveyance direction and an interval between the projecting rotators in the sheet conveyance direction is smaller on the upstream side than on the downstream side in the sheet conveyance direction.

A sheet conveying apparatus includes: a conveying roller configured to convey a sheet in a conveying direction; driven rollers arranged with intervals in a width direction intersecting with the conveying direction, the driven rollers being opposed to the conveying roller in a direction perpendicular to the conveying direction and the width direction; and coil springs provided corresponding to the driven rollers respectively and serving as rotating shafts for rotatably supporting the driven rollers, wherein the coil springs include a right-handed twining coil spring and a left-handed twining coil spring.

A conveying device includes a pair of rotary bodies and a movable member. The pair or rotary bodies includes a first rotary body disposed in a first region, and a second rotary body disposed in a second region and facing the first rotary body across a sheet conveyance passage through which a sheet applied with liquid is conveyed. The movable member is disposed upstream from the first rotary body in a sheet conveyance direction. The movable member is configured to move between the first region and the second region with respect to the sheet conveyance passage. The movable member is configured to move to the second region in a middle of conveyance of the sheet between the first rotary body and the second rotary body.

A medium discharging device includes a paper discharging tray that is disposed below a height position of a discharging roller which discharges a medium and includes a placing surface on which the medium discharged by the discharging roller is placed, and a supporting member that is configured to be movable between a retreat position on an upstream side and an advance position on a downstream side between the discharging roller and the placing surface.

A medium conveying apparatus includes a driving roller, a plurality of driven rollers, a support part, a plurality of upstream restriction parts and a plurality of downstream restriction parts. The support part supports the driven rollers. The upstream restriction parts are provided in the support part between the adjacent driven rollers. The downstream restriction parts are provided in the support part between the adjacent driven rollers. The upstream restriction parts and the downstream restriction parts are arranged on an upstream side and a downstream side in a conveyance direction of the medium across a rotational center of the driven rollers respectively. When the driven rollers are tilted with respect to the conveyance direction, at least one of the upstream restriction parts and the downstream restriction parts comes into contact with side surfaces of the driven rollers to restrict tilting of the driven rollers.

Examples described herein include a star wheel mount that includes a support element. The support element includes a first clip element coupled to a first end to engage a first mounting element on a media handler housing, and a second clip element coupled to a second end opposite the first end to engage a second mounting element on the media handler housing. The star wheel mount also includes a star wheel support axle coupled to hold a star wheel in a plane perpendicular to a surface of the media handler housing.
