[0071] figure 1 It is a perspective view showing the overall structure of an embodiment of the liquid application device 100 of the present invention. The liquid application device 100 shown here generally includes: a liquid application unit for applying a predetermined application liquid to a medium (hereinafter also referred to as application medium) as an object to apply the liquid; and A liquid supply unit for supplying a coating liquid to the liquid coating unit.
[0072] The liquid application unit includes a cylindrical application roller 1001 , a cylindrical counter roller (medium support member) 1002 arranged to face the application roller 1001 , and a roller drive mechanism 1003 for driving the application roller 1001 . The roller driving mechanism 1003 includes a roller driving motor 1004 and a power transmission mechanism 1005 having a gear train for transmitting the driving force of the roller driving motor 1004 to the application roller 1001 .

[0160] Figure 20 It is a lookup table for determining the number of preliminary spins (preparatory spin time) in this embodiment. The pretreatment operation in this embodiment is to discharge the thickened and adhering material of the coating liquid remaining on the coating roller and in the liquid holding member when the device is not used for a long time, for example, ΔT is greater than or equal to 24 hours. dust on. That is, this is a control method for recovering the coating liquid at least once after performing a certain number of preliminary rotations.
[0161] Figure 16 It is a flowchart showing the processing procedure of the pre-processing in this embodiment.
[0162] exist Figure 16 In, the processing of steps S41, S42 and S45 to S47 are respectively the same as Figure 14 The processing of steps S21, S22, and S23 to S25 shown is the same.
[0163] In this embodiment, elapsed time information indicating the elapsed time between the end of the previous collec...

[0174] In the first and second embodiments, the pretreatment operation is performed before the start of the current coating after the predetermined time elapses after the previous recovery. On the other hand, in this embodiment, based on when the previous application operation before the previous recovery operation ends (when the rotation of the application roller for the application operation is stopped) and when the current application operation starts (for The pretreatment operation is controlled by the elapsed time between the start of rotation of the coating roller for the coating operation.
[0175] Figure 18 It is a flowchart showing the processing procedure of the pre-processing in this embodiment.
[0176] when in Figure 13 When the operation of the pump 3007 is started in step S3, the previous stop time information indicating the stop time of the application roller 1001 is read from the nonvolatile memory 4012 in step S61. In addition, current time information i...
