MEDIUM TRANSPORTING ROLLER AND RECORDING DEVICE
In a recording device which performs recording on a recording medium, a transport driving roller which carries out transporting of the recording medium as a medium transport roller is formed by processing a plate member into a cylindrical shape. A bonding portion where the pair of edge portions of the plate material are bonded has a transport region, which is a region where at least the recording medium comes into contact with, extends in a straight line shape in a direction which intersects a circumference line.
1 . A medium transporting roller, which carries out transporting of a recording medium, comprising:
a cylindrical portion formed in a cylindrical shape by a pair of edge portions being bonded;
a bonding portion which is formed in the cylindrical portion and extends in a straight line in an intersecting direction with regard to a circumference line of the cylindrical portion over a region which comes into contact with the recording medium; and
a concave and convex engaging portion which, out of the bonding portion, is arranged outside the region and is due to an engagement of a concave portion and a convex portion formed in each of the pair of edge portions.
2 . The medium transporting roller according to claim 1 ,
wherein the bonding section which extends in a straight line extends in a straight line shape in a direction which is not at a right angle with regard to the circumference line.
3 . The medium transporting roller according to claim 1 ,
wherein the bonding section further has a pair of concave portions in each of the pair of edge portions, and
a hole formed by the pair of concave portions is arranged outside of the region which comes into contact with the recording medium.
4 . The medium transporting roller according to claim 2 ,
wherein the bonding section further has a pair of concave portions in each of the pair of edge portions, and
a hole formed by the pair of concave portions is arranged outside of the region which comes into contact with the recording medium.
5 . A recording device, which performs recording on a recording medium, comprising:
a recording unit which performs recording on the recording medium; and
a medium transporting roller which is arranged on an upper stream side of the recording device and sends the recording medium to a downstream side,
wherein the medium transport roller has a cylindrical portion formed in a cylindrical shape by a pair of edge portions being bonded, a bonding portion which is formed in the cylindrical portion and extends in a straight line in an intersecting direction with regard to a circumference line of the cylindrical portion over a region which comes into contact with the recording medium, and a concave and convex engaging portion which, out of the bonding portion, is arranged outside the region and is due to an engagement of a concave portion and a convex portion formed in each of the pair of edge portions.
6 . The recording device according to claim 5 ,
wherein the bonding section extends in a straight line shape in a direction which is not at a right angle with regard to a circumference line.
7 . The recording device according to claim 5 ,
wherein the bonding section further has a pair of concave portions in each of the pair of edge portions, and
a hole formed by the pair of concave portions is arranged outside of the region which comes into contact with the recording medium.
8 . The recording device according to claim 6 ,
wherein the bonding section further has a pair of concave portions in each of the pair of edge portions, and
a hole formed by the pair of concave portions is arranged outside of the region which comes into contact with the recording medium.
9 . The recording device according to claim 5 ,
wherein a shaft receiving portion which supports the medium transporting roller is arranged outside of a region where the concave and convex engaging portion is provided and the region which comes into contact with the recording medium.
10 . The recording device according to claim 6 ,
wherein a shaft receiving portion which supports the medium transporting roller is arranged outside of a region where the concave and convex engaging portion is provided and the region which comes into contact with the recording medium.
11 . The recording device according to claim 7 ,
wherein a shaft receiving portion which supports the medium transporting roller is arranged outside of the region where the concave and convex engaging portion is provided, the region which comes into contact with the recording medium, and a region of the hole formed by the pair of concave portions.
12 . The recording device according to claim 8 ,
wherein a shaft receiving portion which supports the medium transporting roller is arranged outside of the region where the concave and convex engaging portion is provided, the region which comes into contact with the recording medium, and a region of the hole formed by the pair of concave portions.
