Fig. 1 is the schematic diagram of the embodiment of the present invention one
Fig. 2 is the schematic diagram of the embodiment of the present invention two
Detailed description of the invention
With specific embodiment, technical scheme is illustrated below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
Embodiment one:
The present invention is suitable at ink outlet port needing filling porous material, to ensure that ink can flow to print from ink storage chamber swimmingly
All print cartridges of the ink supply port of machine, are illustrated in figure 1 common above-mentioned print cartridges structure figure, and print cartridge 1 includes housing 2,
Housing 2 is internally formed ink storage chamber, and ink storage chamber can be single cavity, it is also possible to is the several cavitys separated, goes out
Ink mouth 3 is formed on the diapire of print cartridge 1, and one end connects with ink storage chamber, and one end connects with the ink supply port of printer,
Being filled with the suitable filling member of geomery 4 in ink outlet port 3, filling member 4 is made up of resin sintered material, filling member 4
Outer rim be equipped with one layer of silica gel, it is ensured that filling member 4 reliably seals ink outlet port 3, such as the dash area in Fig. 1
The filling member 4 of silica gel is had for outer rim.
Resin sintered material is porous polymeric materials, such as polyethylene, polyester fiber, polypropylene, politef etc.,
Filling member 4 for therein one or more mix, aperture is 20-130 μm, nonhazardous, high inertia, antioxidation,
Energy strong alkali-acid resistance, water and various organic solvent, do not occur swelling or the most swelling, has good liquid transmission merit
Energy.
The nozzle diameter of common ink-jet printer is 20-40 μm, and the impurity diameter in ink will block up more than 40 μm
Plug nozzle, causes the problems such as printing broken string, and follow-up cleaning is the most considerably complicated.Use in prior art is common
The aperture of cotton core is 150-1000 μm, is far longer than the diameter of some impurity, therefore can not be by less for diameter in ink
Contaminant filter falls;If selecting the material that aperture is too small, such as aperture to be less than 20 μm, on the one hand density of material is excessive, inhales
Attached ink very capable, causes ink can not be transmitted to ink supply port smoothly from ink storage chamber, on the other hand, inhales
Attached a large amount of inks cause being fed to printer, reduce the availability of ink;The resin that the application uses
The aperture of sintered material is 20-130 μm, and minimum can filter out the diameter impurity more than 20 μm, compared to existing hole
Footpath is the sponge of 150-1000 μm, and filter effect becomes apparent from.Straight in view of the diameter of most of nozzles and impurity
Footpath, the preferred scheme of the application is the resin sintered material that filling member 4 uses aperture to be 20-130 μm.
The shore hardness of general sponge is less than or equal to 45 degree, and the shore hardness of soft sponge is less than or equal to 30 degree,
Hardness is smaller, on the one hand, be easily deformed, and produces bubble, and on the other hand, the aperture of general sponge is relatively big, sponge
Pore size easily change, impurity easily enters in sponge, blocking sponge micropore, reduce sponge transmission
The ability of liquid.The shore hardness of resin sintered material is 60-70 degree, relative to the general sponge used in prior art
For, hardness strengthens, and is unlikely to deform, it is to avoid the generation of bubble, and aperture is little, and impurity is not easily accessed filling member 4
And it being blocked in outside, impurity will not block the micropore of filling member 4.
After print cartridge is installed to printer, the ink supply port of printer coordinates with ink supply port 3, filling member 4 and ink supply end
Mouth is in close contact, and can guide the ink in ink storage chamber to ink supply port smoothly, it is ensured that ink feed is normal.
The aperture of resin sintered material is less, and hardness is relatively big, is unlikely to deform, is possible to prevent the intrusion of bubble, the most right
Impurity in ink has the effect of filtration.Resin sintered material water absorption is lower than the water absorption of sponge, is ensureing not ink leak
Residual ink amount is decreased in the case of water.Owing to filling member 4 is to be formed by resinae compound sintering, stable chemical performance,
High inertia, with ink generation chemical reaction, and will not play the effect of suppression bacteria breed.

Nonhazardous, high inertia, antioxidation, energy strong alkali-acid resistance, water and various organic solvent, do not occur swelling or the slightest
Swelling, there is good liquid transfer function.Filling member 141 is filled in ink outlet port 13, keeps ink not from print cartridge
Drip or ooze out, on the one hand coordinating the negative pressure of print cartridge to keep ink, on the other hand coordinate with the ink supply port of printer and makes
The more stable sufficient supply of ink.Air is connected by filling member 142 with ink, can adsorb a certain amount of ink,
Ink is had certain holding effect, is possible to prevent ink to flow back to air circuitous channel 171, air is had necessarily simultaneously
Inhibition.Filling member 143 adsorbs a certain amount of ink, and jointly maintain with filling member 142 that ink supply needs is normal
Negative pressure, makes a concrete analysis of as follows:
Printing when print cartridge loads printer, along with the carrying out printed, ink is consumed, in the suction of printer ink-providing port
Under power effect, on the one hand, the ink in ink storage chamber 23 just enters ink from bottom to top through filling member 143, connected entrance 19
Aquaporin 172;On the other hand, air can carry out supplementing the space of consumption from air guide port 21, but is arranged on ink
Filling member 143 at introducing port 19 has adsorption to ink, has the ink holding capacity of a capability, owing to setting
Putting the filling member 142 at air introduction mouth, flow of ambient air, by certain obstruction, so only has the consumption of ink not have
Have ink, air supplement, create negative pressure.Along with proceeding of printing, the suction that negative pressure produces is more than filling
During the resistance that part produces, filling member 142 starts ventilation, and ink starts to be fed to ink channel 172 from filling member 143,
So, amount out of ink and air inflow are constantly in dynamic equilibrium, maintain the stable existence of negative pressure.Filling member 141
Effect, it is achieved effect identical with embodiment one.
