Summary:To provide a cleaning device which can avoid outflowing of a cleaning fluid.SOLUTION: A head cleaning device cleans a print head of an inkjet recording device. The inkjet recording device includes: a body having an ink container connected to the print head and configured to store an ink for making prints on a printing object, and a solvent container connected to the print head and configured to store a solvent for diluting the ink; and the print head having a nozzle which is connected to the ink container and from which the ink compressively supplied is discharged, a charge electrode which charges ink particles used for printing, a deflection electrode which deflects the ink particles charged by the charge electrode, and a gutter which recovers the ink particles which are not used for printing. The head cleaning device includes: a head attachment part to which the print head is attached; a container for storing the solvent; and a pump for supplying the solvent in the container to the head attachment part. In a state where the print head is attached to the head attachment part, the solvent is jetted in the head attachment part to clean the print head.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 2 【課題】 洗浄液が流出することを回避することができる洗浄装置を提供することにある。【解決手段】 インクジェット記録装置の印字ヘッドを洗浄するヘッド洗浄装置であって、インクジェット記録装置は、印字ヘッドと接続され、印字対象物に印字をするためのインクが収容されるインク容器と、印字ヘッドと接続され、インクを希釈する溶剤が収容された溶剤容器とを有する本体と、インク容器に接続され加圧供給されたインクが吐出されるノズルと、印字に使用されるインク粒子を帯電させる帯電電極と、帯電電極で帯電されたインク粒子を偏向させる偏向電極と、印字に使用されないインク粒子を回収するガターとを有する印字ヘッドと、を備えており、ヘッド洗浄装置は、印字ヘッドが装着されるヘッド装着部と、溶剤を収容する容器と、容器内の溶剤を、ヘッド装着部に供給するためのポンプと、を備え、印字ヘッドがヘッド装着部に装着されている状態で、ヘッド装着部の内部で溶剤を噴射し、印字ヘッドを洗浄するヘッド洗浄装置。【選択図】図2
