Abstract
A feed tray includes a first accommodation part in which a roll body having a configuration where a first sheet-shaped medium is rolled in a roll shape is accommodated, a conveyance guide configured to define a conveyance path for a roll medium which is the first sheet-shaped medium unrolled from the roll body accommodated in the first accommodation part, and a shutter movable between an intercept position where the shutter is located in the conveyance path and a retreat position where the shutter is further from the conveyance path than the intercept position.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:
1 . A feed tray configured to accommodate a first sheet-shaped medium and a second sheet-shaped medium, the feed tray comprising:
a first accommodation part configured to accommodate a roll body, in which the first sheet-shaped medium is rolled in a roll shape; and a second accommodation part configured to accommodate a plurality of the second sheet-shaped medium in a stacked state, wherein the first accommodation part and the second accommodation part are arranged in the feed tray in a first direction orthogonal to a rotational axis of the roll body, and wherein the second accommodation part is configured to accommodate the second sheet-shaped medium in an orientation in which a short side of the second sheet-shaped medium is aligned in the first direction.
2 . The feed tray according to claim 1 ,
wherein the second accommodation part is arranged at a position downstream with respect to the first accommodation part in a second direction in which the first sheet-shaped medium is unrolled from the roll body.
3 . The feed tray according to claim 1 , further comprising:
a first sidewall that extends in the first direction and defines a first side edge of the first accommodation part and the second accommodation part; and a second sidewall that extends in the first direction and defines a second side edge of the first accommodation part and the second accommodation part, the second side edge facing the first side edge.
4 . An image recording apparatus comprising:
a housing; the feed tray according to claim 1 , the feed tray being configured to be capable of being inserted into and pulled out from the housing; a feed roller configured to feed one of the first sheet-shaped medium and the second sheet-shaped medium; and a recording unit configured to record an image on one of the first sheet-shaped medium and the second sheet-shaped medium fed by the feed roller.
5 . The image recording apparatus according to claim 4 ,
wherein the second accommodation part of the feed tray is located within the housing in a state where the feed tray is inserted into the housing.
6 . The image recording apparatus according to claim 4 ,
wherein the first accommodation part of the feed tray is located within the housing in a state where the feed tray is inserted into the housing.
7 . The image recording apparatus according to claim 4 ,
wherein the second sheet-shaped medium is fed by the feed roller in a third direction in which the first sheet-shaped medium is fed by the feed roller.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
