In the second direction X, the distance from the center line C to the first end 27a is the same as the distance from the center line C to the second end 27b.

[0022] The substrate portion 27 has a first connector 34 and a second connector 35. The substrate portion 27 of the present embodiment has a plurality of first connectors 34 and a plurality of second connectors 35.

[0023] The multiple first connectors 34 may be provided in the first region R1. The multiple second connectors 35 may be provided in the second region R2. In other words, of the multiple connectors, the connector located in the first region R1 is the first connector 34, and the connector located in the second region R2 is the second connector 35.

[0024] The multiple first connectors 34 are provided along the outer periphery of the substrate portion 27. Some of the multiple first connectors 34 may be provided along the first end 27a and some may be provided along the third end 27c.

[0026] <Harness> The multiple first harnesses 28 are respectively connected to the multiple first connectors 34. The first harnesses 28 are connected to the first connectors 34 via the first ends 27a. The multiple first harnesses 28 are respectively connected to different first connectors 34. Each of the first harnesses 28 crosses the first ends 27a. The first harnesses 28 may be connected to the drive unit 21. The first harnesses 28 may connect the first connectors 34 and the drive unit 21.

[0027] The second harness 29 may be connected to the detection unit 22. The second harness 29 may connect the second connector 35 and the detection unit 22. The second harnesses 29 are respectively connected to the second connectors 35. The second harnesses 29 are connected to the second connectors 35 via an end different from the first end 27a. The second harnesses 29 are connected to the second connectors 35 via any of the second end 27b, the third end 27c, and the fourth end 27d. The second harness 29 connected to the second connector 35 closer to the second end 27b may be connected via the second end 27b. The second harness 29 connected to the second connector 35 closer to the third end 27c may be connected via the third end 27c.

[0028] The first harness 28 and the second harness 29 may be gathered together to form a gathering section. The electrical equipment section 23 of this embodiment includes a first gathering section 37 and a second gathering section 38, which are examples of gathering sections. The first gathering section 37 and the second gathering section 38 are located outside the support section 25 and the board section 27. The first gathering section 37 may be located above the board section 27 and the support section 25. The second gathering section 38 may be located below the board section 27 and the support section 25. The first gathering section 37 and the second gathering section 38 may be provided at a position closer to the second end 27b than the first end 27a. The first gathering section 37 and the second gathering section 38 may be provided at a position opposite the first end 27a with respect to the second end 27b.

[0029] The fastening portion 30 may bundle some of the first harnesses 28 and the second harnesses 29. The fastening portion 30 may fix one or a bundle of the first harnesses 28 and the second harnesses 29 to the support portion 25. The fastening portion 30 may fix the second harnesses 29 to the holding portion 31.

[0030] <Holding part> The holding portion 31 may hold a plurality of second harnesses 29. The plurality of second harnesses 29 held by the holding portion 31 may pass through the fourth end 27d. The plurality of second harnesses 29 held by the holding portion 31 may constitute a first collection portion 37. The second harnesses 29 not held by the holding portion 31 may constitute a second collection portion 38. The second connector 35 to which the second harnesses 29 held by the holding portion 31 are connected may be provided at a position closer to the third end 27c than to the fourth end 27d.

[0031] The holding portion 31 is provided along the surface 27e of the substrate portion 27. The holding portion 31 may be fixed to the substrate portion 27 or the support portion 25 by, for example, a screw. The holding portion 31 may be provided so as to be movable by removing the screw.

[0032] The holding portion 31 in this embodiment can be displaced between a facing position P1 shown by a solid line in Fig. 2 and a retracted position P2 shown by a two-dot chain line in Fig. 2. The facing position P1 is a position facing the surface 27e. When viewed in the third direction Y, the holding portion 31 located at the facing position P1 at least partially overlaps with the substrate portion 27. When viewed in the third direction Y, the holding portion 31 located at the facing position P1 is aligned with the substrate portion 27 in the third direction Y. When the substrate portion 27 is viewed in the third direction Y from the rear side as shown in Fig. 2, the holding portion 31 is located in front of the substrate portion 27.

[0033] The retracted position P2 is a position that does not face the surface 27e. When viewed in the third direction Y from the rear side, the retracted position P2 is a position that does not overlap with the substrate portion 27 and the support portion 25. The retracted position P2 is a position above the substrate portion 27 and the support portion 25. The retracted position P2 is a position within the housing 12. The holding portion 31 located at the retracted position P2 is located within the housing 12. The holding portion 31 located at the retracted position P2 is supported by the hook 32. The hook 32 keeps the holding portion 31 in the retracted position P2.

[0034] <Operation of the embodiment> The operation of this embodiment will be described. The worker can perform maintenance on the boards, motors, sensors, and the like provided at the back of the board portion 27. Maintenance includes, for example, replacement, repair, inspection, cleaning, and the like. When performing maintenance on the back of the board portion 27, the worker first detaches each of the multiple second harnesses 29 from the second connector 35. Of the second harnesses 29 detached from the second connector 35, the second harnesses 29 constituting the second collection portion 38 may hang down below the board portion 27 and the support portion 25.

[0035] Next, the worker displaces the holding portion 31 to the retracted position P2 while holding the multiple second harnesses 29. This makes the support portion 25 rotatable. The worker rotates the support portion 25 and the board portion 27 to expose the members located deep inside the board portion 27 and perform maintenance.

[0036] <Operation of the embodiment> The effects of this embodiment will be described. (1-1) The board portion 27 is provided rotatably. By rotating the board portion 27, an operator can easily access the back of the board portion 27. The first connector 34 and the second connector 35 are provided along the outer periphery of the board portion 27. The first harness 28 connected to the first connector 34 passes through the first end 27a on the rotating shaft 26 side. The second harness 29 connected to the second connector 35 passes through an end different from the first end 27a. In other words, the second harness 29 can pass through an end closer to the second connector 35. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the harness from becoming long while ensuring accessibility to the back of the board portion 27.

[0037] (1-2) The first connector 34 is provided in a first region R1 between the first end 27a and the center line C. The first harness 28 connected to the first connector 34 passes through the first end 27a, so that the first harness 28 does not become longer. The second connector 35 is provided in a second region R2 away from the first end 27a. The second connector 35 does not pass through the first end 27a, so that the second harness 29 does not become longer.

[0038] (1-3) For example, when multiple first connectors 34 are arranged close together, a large space is required to concentrate the multiple first harnesses 28. In this regard, the multiple first connectors 34 are arranged at intervals from each other. Therefore, a large space for the multiple first harnesses 28 is not required, and the size of the device can be prevented from increasing.

[0039] (1-4) The holding portion 31 holds the plurality of second harnesses 29. Since the plurality of second harnesses 29 can be bundled together by the holding portion 31, flapping of each of the second harnesses 29 can be suppressed.

[0040] (1-5) For example, if the second harness 29 flutters during transportation of the device, the second harness 29 may hit the board portion 27 and damage the board portion 27. In this regard, the holding portion 31 that holds the second harness 29 is provided along the surface 27e of the board portion 27, so that the board portion 27 can be protected.

[0041] (1-6) When the surface 27e of the substrate portion 27 is aligned along the axial direction of the rotation shaft 26, the holding portion 31 located at the opposing position P1 inhibits the rotation of the substrate portion 27. In this regard, the holding portion 31 can be displaced to the retracted position P2. Therefore, by positioning the holding portion 31 at the retracted position P2, the substrate portion 27 can be easily rotated.

[0042] (1-7) The second harness 29 is connected to the second connector 35 on the third end 27c side, and passes through the fourth end 27d opposite the third end 27c. Therefore, the second harness 29 removed from the second connector 35 may hinder the rotation of the board part 27. In this regard, the holding part 31 holds the second harness 29, so that the board part 27 can be easily rotated.

[0043] (1-8) The retracted position P2 is a position inside the housing 12. Therefore, the operator can move the holder 31 to the retracted position P2 regardless of the state outside the housing 12. (1-9) The second harness 29 is connected to the detection unit 22. The second harness 29 is more susceptible to the effects of noise than the first harness 28 connected to the drive unit 21. The first collection portion 37 and the second collection portion 38 are provided at positions closer to the second end 27b. The length of the second harness 29 can be made shorter than the first harness 28, thereby reducing the effects of noise.

[0044] [Example of change] This embodiment can be modified as follows: This embodiment and the following modifications can be combined with each other to the extent that there is no technical contradiction.

[0045] The first harness 28 may be connected to the detection unit 22. The second harness 29 may be connected to the drive unit 21 . At least one of the first collection portion 37 and the second collection portion 38 may be provided between the first end 27a and the second end 27b in the second direction X. At least one of the first collection portion 37 and the second collection portion 38 may be provided at a position opposite to the second end 27b with respect to the first end 27a.

[0046] The first harness 28 and the second harness 29 do not have to be joined together. The holding portion 31 located at the retracted position P2 may be located partially or entirely outside the housing 12.

[0047] At least one of the second harnesses 29 held by the holding portion 31 may pass through an end other than the fourth end 27d. For example, the second harness 29 held by the holding portion 31 may pass through the second end 27b.

[0048] The holding portion 31 located at the opposing position P1 may at least partially overlap the support portion 25 when viewed in the third direction Y from the rear side, but may not overlap the substrate portion 27. The holding portion 31 located at the opposing position P1 may face the support portion 25, but may not face the surface 27e.

[0049] One or more first connectors 34 may be provided along the fourth end 27d. One or more first connectors 34 may be provided beside the fourth end 27d. One or more second connectors 35 may be provided along the fourth end 27d. One or more second connectors 35 may be provided beside the fourth end 27d.

[0050] The multiple first connectors 34 aligned in the first direction Z may be arranged to overlap in the first direction Z while being shifted in position in the second direction X. The first connectors 34 arranged in the second direction X may be arranged to overlap each other in the second direction X while being shifted in position in the first direction Z.

[0051] The first connector 34 may be located on the center line C. For example, the first connector 34 may be a connector whose center in the second direction X is located in the first region R1. The first connector 34 may be a connector whose center in the longitudinal direction is located in the first region R1. The first connector 34 may be a connector whose harness connection position is located in the first region R1.

[0052] The second connector 35 may be located on the center line C. For example, the second connector 35 may be a connector whose center in the second direction X is located in the second region R2. The second connector 35 may be a connector whose center in the longitudinal direction is located in the second region R2. The second connector 35 may be a connector whose harness connection position is located in the second region R2.

[0053] Of the multiple connectors provided on the board unit 27, some of the connectors may be the third connector. Of the multiple harnesses provided on the electrical equipment unit 23, a harness connected to the third connector may be the third harness. For example, the third connector may be located on the center line C. The third harness may pass through the first end 27a, or may pass through an end different from the first end 27a.

[0054] The substrate portion 27 may include one first connector 34 and one second connector 35 . The rotation shaft 26 may be provided on the substrate portion 27. In this case, the recording device 11 may not include the support portion 25.

[0055] The recording device 11 is not limited to an inkjet printer, but may be a laser printer, a thermal printer, a dot matrix printer, a digital printing machine, or the like. The recording device 11 may be a liquid ejection device that performs recording by ejecting or discharging a liquid other than ink. The state of the liquid ejected from the liquid ejection device as minute droplets includes granular, teardrop, and thread-like tails. The liquid here may be any material that can be ejected from the liquid ejection device. For example, the liquid may be any state in which the substance is in a liquid phase, and includes fluids such as high or low viscosity liquids, sols, gel water, other inorganic solvents, organic solvents, solutions, liquid resins, liquid metals, and metal melts. The liquid includes not only liquids as one state of matter, but also particles of functional materials made of solids such as pigments and metal particles dissolved, dispersed, or mixed in a solvent. Representative examples of liquids include inks and liquid crystals as described in the above embodiment. Here, the ink includes various liquid compositions such as general water-based inks and oil-based inks, as well as gel inks and hot melt inks. Specific examples of the liquid ejection device include a device that ejects a liquid containing materials such as electrode materials and color materials in a dispersed or dissolved form, which are used in the manufacture of liquid crystal displays, electroluminescence displays, surface-emitting displays, and color filters. The liquid ejection device may be a device that ejects biological organic matter used in the manufacture of biochips, a device that ejects liquid as a sample used as a precision pipette, a textile printing device, a microdispenser, or the like. The liquid ejection device may be a device that ejects lubricating oil at a pinpoint onto precision machinery such as a watch or camera, or a device that ejects transparent resin liquid such as ultraviolet curing resin onto a substrate to form a micro hemispherical lens, optical lens, or the like used in optical communication elements. The liquid ejection device may be a device that ejects an etching liquid such as an acid or alkali to etch a substrate or the like.

[0056] [Definition] The term "at least one" as used herein means "one or more" of the desired options. As an example, the term "at least one" as used herein means "only one option" or "both of two options" if the number of options is two. As another example, the term "at least one" as used herein means "only one option", "any combination of two options", or "any combination of three or more options" if the number of options is three or more.

[0057] [Note] The technical ideas and effects obtained from the above-described embodiment and modified examples will be described below.

[0058] (A) A recording device includes a housing, a substrate unit rotatable around a rotation axis, a first harness connected to a first connector of the substrate unit via a first end of the substrate unit on the rotation axis side, and a second harness connected to a second connector of the substrate unit via an end different from the first end of the substrate unit, the first connector and the second connector being provided along the outer periphery of the substrate unit.

[0059] According to this configuration, the board unit is rotatably provided. By rotating the board unit, an operator can easily access the back of the board unit. The first connector and the second connector are provided along the outer periphery of the board unit. A first harness connected to the first connector passes through a first end on the rotating shaft side. A second harness connected to the second connector passes through an end different from the first end. That is, the second harness can be passed through an end closer to the second connector. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the harness from becoming long while ensuring accessibility to the back of the board unit.

[0060] (B) In the recording device described in (A), the substrate portion has a first region from the first end to a center line and a second region from a second end opposite the first end to the center line, the first connector being provided in the first region and the second connector being provided in the second region.

[0061] According to this configuration, the first connector is provided in a first region between the first end and the center line. The first harness connected to the first connector passes through the first end, so the first harness can be prevented from becoming too long. The second connector is provided in a second region away from the first end. The second connector does not pass through the first end, so the second harness can be prevented from becoming too long.

[0062] (C) In the recording device described in (A) or (B), the substrate portion may have a plurality of the first connectors, and among the plurality of first connectors, the first connectors that are aligned in a first direction in which the first ends extend may be spaced apart from each other in the first direction, and among the plurality of first connectors, the first connectors that are aligned in a second direction in which third ends that intersect the first ends extend may be spaced apart from each other in the second direction.

[0063] For example, when multiple first connectors are arranged close together, a large space is required to concentrate the multiple first harnesses. In this respect, with this configuration, the multiple first connectors are arranged at intervals from each other. Therefore, a large space for the multiple first harnesses is not required, and the size of the device can be suppressed.

[0064] (D) In ​​the recording device described in (A) to (C), the substrate portion may have a plurality of the second connectors, and may further include a plurality of the second harnesses respectively connected to the plurality of second connectors, and a holding portion that holds the plurality of the second harnesses.

[0065] According to this configuration, the holding portion holds a plurality of second harnesses. Since the holding portion can bundle the plurality of second harnesses, it is possible to suppress flapping of each of the second harnesses.

[0066] In the recording device described in (E) and (D), the holding portion may be provided along a surface of the substrate portion on which the second connector is provided. For example, if the second harness flutters during transportation of the device, the second harness may hit the board and damage the board. In this respect, with this configuration, the holding portion that holds the second harness is provided along the surface of the board, so that the board can be protected.

[0067] In the recording apparatus described in (F), (D) or (E), the holding portion may be displaceable between a facing position facing the surface and a retracted position not facing the surface. When the surface of the substrate is aligned with the axial direction of the rotation shaft, the holding portion located at the opposing position impedes the rotation of the substrate. In this regard, with this configuration, the holding portion can be displaced to a retracted position. Therefore, by positioning the holding portion at the retracted position, the substrate can be easily rotated.

[0068] In the recording device described in (G) and (F), the substrate portion has the first end, a second end opposite the first end, a third end intersecting the first end and the second end, and a fourth end opposite the third end, the multiple second harnesses held in the holding portion pass through the fourth end, and the multiple second connectors to which the multiple second harnesses held in the holding portion are respectively connected may be provided at a position closer to the third end than the fourth end.

[0069] According to this configuration, the second harness is connected to the second connector on the third end side and passes through the fourth end opposite the third end. Therefore, the second harness removed from the second connector may hinder the rotation of the board unit. In this regard, the holding part holds the second harness, so that the board unit can be easily rotated.

[0070] In the recording apparatus according to (H), (F) or (G), the retracted position may be a position within the housing. According to this configuration, the retracted position is a position inside the housing, so that the operator can move the holder to the retracted position regardless of the state outside the housing.

[0071] The recording device described in (I)(A) to (H) may include a drive unit, a detection unit, and a collection unit where the first harness and the second harness are gathered, the first harness being connected to the drive unit and the second harness being connected to the detection unit, and the collection unit being provided at a position closer to a second end opposite the first end than the first end.

[0072] According to this configuration, the second harness is connected to the detection unit. The second harness is more susceptible to noise than the first harness connected to the drive unit. The collection unit is provided at a position close to the second end. Since the length of the second harness can be made shorter than the first harness, the influence of noise can be reduced.
