Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to inkjet printing, especially in ink-jet printer, carry out phase place adjust used improvement threshold value automatic regulating system and method.
Background technology
Continous inkjet printers is well-known at industry coding and marker field, is widely used on the production line in the information by printing Expiration Date and so on the various base materials of printer.As shown in Figure 1, the piezoelectric element that vibrated of one China ink resolves into the even ink droplet of a string rule.Ink droplet is by charging panel then, and this charging panel is each ink droplet charging under selected voltage.Ink droplet is provided as the transverse electric field that crosses a pair of deflecting plates by one then.Each ink droplet is deflected certain amount, and amount of deflection depends on its electric charge.If ink droplet is not recharged, it can pass through deflecting plates, but not deflection.The ink droplet of uncharged and slight charging is collected in the gatherer, and turns back to Mo Yuan with recycling.The ink droplet that advances along the track of avoiding gatherer can impinge upon base material certain a bit on, this is determined by the electric charge on the ink droplet.Usually, each charged ink droplet is furnished with a uncharged basically protection ink droplet, thereby reduces electrostatic interaction and pneumatic interaction between the charged droplets.Because base material moves through printer, the ink droplet on the base material has a component by decision release time of ink droplet in the position of base material moving direction.Below, the moving direction of base material is called horizontal direction, will on substrate plane, the direction vertical be called vertical direction with horizontal direction.These directions and base material and the printer orientation in the space is irrelevant.If ink droplet is by vertical deflection, the position of ink droplet on vertical direction and horizontal direction will be by the determining positions of electric charge on the ink droplet and base material.
In general custom, predetermined grating pattern is provided and, represents the character of a preliminary dimension usually for the matrix of each pattern.For example, as shown in Figure 2, can generate one high * wide be the matrix of 5 * 5 representative image, it represents a complete image, as character, or the part of an image.Fig. 3 has showed one 7 * 9 matrix, and this generates character more clearly.The technology that is widely used in printing these characters or image section discloses in U.S. Patent No. 3298030 (Lewis etc.).Stroke is defined as each row of matrix, the part of representative image.Each useful ink droplet is assigned to each pixel (some position) in the stroke.If pixel is a blank pixel, ink droplet does not charge so, collects but be collected device, and is sent back to Mo Yuan.If pixel will be printed, so suitable electric charge just is added on the ink droplet, so ink droplet is deflected along advancing at the track that the correct position place in should the row of stroke and base material are intersected.All strokes in character repeat this circulation, and character late restarts then.If the ink droplet lateral deflection is to the traffic direction of base material, a branch of ink droplet that forms a stroke can clearly be distributed on the diagonal, because base material can move certain distance between per two ink droplets in this stroke.Along with the increase of base material speed with respect to ink ejection velocity, the angular displacement meeting of this line and vertical direction increases.This angular displacement can make it offset from perpendicular and partial offset by the angle of adjusting deflecting plates, and the counteracting amount depends on the goal pace of base material.If the position that the ink droplet in stroke is not equated to the base material at interval by continuous dispensing, these points just no longer distribute point-blank so.
In order to keep simple matrix raster pattern---wherein the straight line on any direction all is mapped on the straight line on the base material in the matrix, must be in a stroke printed dot continuously, and the time interval between per two strokes equate.No matter a stroke comprises a printed dot still is five printed dot, and its institute's time spent all equates.In general, the extra protection ink droplet that uses number not to wait at the end of each stroke, thus make base material speed connect a ground variation based on one.
Existing systems can be by measuring the peak value of the charge signal that obtains from China ink stream, charging produces feedback to ink droplet.System usually uses a threshold value of comparing with charge signal.In existing system, threshold value physically is arranged on some trip point place, and on any this trip point all is " good " phase place.Be used for being placed in black gatherer, and usually obtain data by physically regulating from the sensor of China ink stream acquisition charge signal data.Concerning printer user, this method inconvenience, time-consuming and not too accurate.For different China inks, printer and environment, system configuration and threshold value must manually change.In addition, sensor is positioned in the black gatherer and can brings extra interference to charge measurement because of gatherer with the distance of the nozzle that produces China ink stream.In addition, be difficult to separate single ink droplet in the black gatherer.Like this, in ink-jet print system, just need a kind of improved system and method to measure electric charge and threshold value is set.
In ink-jet printer, also need a kind of phase place adjust used improvement threshold value automatic regulating system and method.

The specific embodiment
According to embodiment shown in Figure 1, continous inkjet printers 1 comprises the printhead with ink-droplet generator 4, and ink-droplet generator 4 is accepted China ink from black source 40.Ink-droplet generator combines with piezoelectric oscillator, and piezoelectric oscillator produces disturbance at the Mo Liuzhong at nozzle 6 places.Therefore, from nozzle, correspondingly penetrate the ink droplet of size and interval rule.Ink droplet is by charge tunnel 10, and here, different electric charges can be applied on each ink droplet.When ink droplet during by a pair of deflecting plates 20, electric charge has determined amount of deflection, and this is to keeping substantially invariable electric field between the deflecting plates.Ink droplet 22 uncharged or slight charging does not add deflection substantially and arrives gatherer 30, and is circulated back to Mo Yuan 40.The ink droplet 24 of charging and is deflected by directive base material 50, thereby has the track that impacts this base material, and wherein, the matrix along continuous straight runs passes through printhead.Be applied to charge level control inking on the ink droplet and drop in vertical displacement/position on the base material.
The electric charge that will be applied on the ink droplet is determined by controller 60, controller 60 can be by realizing that such as general processor, microprocessor, microcontroller or equipment with embedded controller of suitable input and output circuit these equipment are well known in the art.Operation under the general program control of the instruction of controller 60 in being stored in relational storage.Memory generally comprises a part of permanent memory (for example flash memory, harddisk memory, EEPROM etc.) and volatile memory (for example RAM).Controller 60 transmits control signal for charge tunnel 10 according to program, and when passing through charge tunnel 10 with convenient ink droplet, control is applied to the electric charge on each ink droplet.A kind of suitable microprocessor is the DS 80C310 type microprocessor that is provided by the Texan dallas semiconductor in Dallas company; Yet other many commercially available equipment also are fit to the function of implementation controller 60.
With reference to Figure 4 and 5, ink droplet is according to being recharged and printing based on the method for stroke, and wherein each stroke or row are divided into N virtual print position, in this N position, only allows the individual described position of n to be used as actual print position in these row, wherein N＞n.As shown in Figure 4, when a stroke comprised the multirow trace, every capable marking was divided into N virtual print position, in this N position, only allowed the individual virtual print position of n to be used as actual print position in this print line, wherein N＞n.In particular embodiment shown in Figure 4, the two row markings are arranged, every capable trace has 9 virtual print positions (N=9), in these 9 positions, only allows 5 (n=5) positions to be used as actual print position in given any stroke.
At least some are divided into paired adjacent print positions in N the virtual print position, and wherein, every pair of adjacent position comprises first (for example, down) print position and second (for example) print position.In the application of single file trace, every pair is had only a print position usually, that is, go up or following print position, is used in given any stroke, so that reduce the influence of the electrostatic interaction between the printed dot.When a stroke comprises the multirow trace, by along alternately upwards inclined-plane printed dot, ink droplet can be printed on two right positions of the adjacent print positions of being given, print the electrostatic interaction effect that has reduced between the ink droplet along alternately upwards inclined-plane.
In the embodiment of Fig. 4, every capable marking has the individual virtual print position of odd number (N=9).8 groups of phase adjacency pairs (being numbered 1s-8s) and two not paired print positions (being numbered 9s and 10s) like this, are in fact arranged.In embodiment as shown in the figure, the print position of the top is not paired in every row; Yet, be understood that this arrangement only illustrates, and nonrestrictive embodiment.
