Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, in the printer described in Patent Document 1, the volume of the ink absorber in contact with the detection part is relatively large, and it may take some time until the ink is detected.
That is, in the case of ink leakage, there is a problem that ink may overflow from the ink absorber and leak out of the printer before or after ink leakage is detected.

Embodiment approach 1

[0014] The liquid ejecting device is, for example, an inkjet printer that performs recording (printing) by ejecting ink, which is an example of a liquid, onto a medium such as paper.

[0015] Such as figure 1 As shown, the liquid ejecting device 11 includes a substantially rectangular parallelepiped casing 12 . On the front surface portion of the housing 12, a rotatable front cover 15 for covering the mounting portion 14 on which the container 13 is detachably mounted is disposed sequentially upward from the bottom side, and a rotatable front cover 15 that can accommodate the medium S (refer to figure 2 ) The installation port 17 of the medium storage body 16. Further, a discharge bracket 18 for discharging the medium S and an operation panel 19 for performing operations on the liquid ejecting device 11 are arranged above the attachment port 17 . In addition, the front surface of the housing 12 refers to a side that has a height and a width, and mainly carries out operation...

Abstract

The present invention provides a liquid ejecting apparatus capable of detecting a leaked liquid early and suppressing an off-machine leak. The liquid ejecting apparatus includes: a liquid ejecting head that ejects a liquid; a liquid supply flow path (27) that supplies a liquid to the liquid ejecting head; a liquid detector (63) that has a detecting unit that detects adhesion of the liquid. (62); afirst absorbing portion (60) which is in contact with the detecting portion (62) and disposed vertically below the liquid supply flow path (27) and capable of absorbing liquid; and a second absorbingportion (61) which is disposed vertically below the first absorbing portion (60).

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a liquid ejecting device such as an ink jet printer. Background technique [0002] Conventionally, for example, as described in Patent Document 1, as an example of a liquid ejecting device, a sheet on which an ink absorber is laid on the entire inner bottom surface of a casing is known, and a sheet that absorbs the ink absorber is provided. The ink is detected by the detector of the printer. [0003] However, in the printer described in Patent Document 1, the volume of the ink absorber in contact with the detection unit is relatively large, and it may take some time until ink is detected. That is, in the case of ink leakage, there is a problem that ink may overflow from the ink absorber and leak out of the printer before or after ink leakage is detected. [0004] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2007-160825 Contents of the invention [0005] Therefore, the present invention has been made to solve at...
