Technical field
The present invention relates to a kind of print cartridge, it is comparatively simple particularly to relate to a kind of processing procedure, and has the print cartridge of the very fast and preferable ink availability of ink supply speed.
Background technology
In recent years, along with the high development of inkjet technology, inkjet technology has been widely used in the office equipment that printer, duplicator and facsimile machine etc. have printing function.Inkjet technology mainly is that the high pressure that utilizes ink-jet printing head (ink-jet chip) to be produced comes moment to push ink, make the kenel of ink with ink droplet, be injected on the paper surface and form ink dot from ink-jet printing head, and utilize many ink dots on the diverse location of paper surface, to form figure or literal.
Print cartridge on the market is to be divided into black print cartridge and colour ink box according to its stored ink color mostly.Along with the progress of printing technique, the graphics resolution that prints day by day improves, and colour ink box is to be used for the printing color picture and text at large, to satisfy people's enjoyment visually.
In general present colour ink box all has plural ink storage chamber (ink chamber), so that store the ink of different colours.Because so-called three primary colors (just dark green (cyan), magenta (magenta) and yellow (yellow) three kinds of colors are arranged on the color science, utilize these three kinds of colors can blend various color),, general colour ink box stores this trichromatic ink so having three ink storage chambers mostly.These color inks are to be flowed in its corresponding ink runner (ink channel) by ink storage chamber earlier, flow to ink-jet printing head via ink outlet port (exit port) again and by ink-jet printing head it are sprayed.
Ink storage chamber has two kinds of arrangement modes usually in print cartridge, a kind of is that three ink storage chambers are parallel to each other, that is to say, and also be parallel to each other in order to two dividing plates of separating three ink storage chambers.Another kind then is that two dividing plates are the arrangement of " T " font, that is to say that each ink storage chamber is all simultaneously adjacent with two ink storage chambers.
The position of ink outlet port can directly influence the length of ink runner.When the ink runner is long, will cause the residual quantity of ink in the ink runner too much to cause waste.For instance, United States Patent (USP) the 5th, 926, No. 195 and the 6th, 260, No. 961 disclosed print cartridges of United States Patent (USP) are to have three ink storage chambers adjacent one another are, and its three ink outlet ports then are distributed in the below of the bottom in a certain ink storage chamber the place ahead.Therefore, the ink that is stored in other two ink storage chambers must be flowed through a segment length than (for example United States Patent (USP) the 5th, 926 after the long ink runner, No. 195 disclosed 20B of accompanying drawing and 20C, United States Patent (USP) the 6th, 260, No. 961 accompanying drawings disclosed 120 and 140), just can export by ink outlet port.Because the ink runner is longer, so may residual too much ink in the ink runner, so the ink availability of these two pieces of disclosed print cartridges of patent is not good.
In addition, United States Patent (USP) the 5th, 576, No. 750 and the 6th, 293, No. 664 disclosed print cartridges of United States Patent (USP) are to have three ink storage chambers that are parallel to each other, and its ink outlet port then is the below that is distributed in the bottom of the ink storage chamber in the middle of being positioned at.With preceding two pieces of disclosed print cartridges of patent in comparison, because the ink outlet port of these two pieces of disclosed print cartridges of patent is to be positioned at more moderate position, therefore can shorten the length of required ink runner, thereby can reduce the residual quantity of ink in the ink runner, to improve the availability of ink.
Above-mentioned five pieces of disclosed print cartridges of United States Patent (USP) all are to complete in integrally formed mode.Yet, not only the die sinking design of its mould is comparatively complicated to make print cartridge in integrally formed mode, required consumed time is also longer, and also must be after forming the ink runner by the welding processing procedure more than twice to seal the opening that print cartridge forms in the withdrawing pattern process, so it is quite high to make the cost of required cost.
Therefore, United States Patent (USP) the 6th, 290, No. 348 disclosed print cartridges are to assemble after the body of print cartridge is independently made with the base plate with ink outlet port again, so that solve the above problems.But its ink outlet port of the disclosed print cartridge of this piece patent is a side of deflection chassis, thereby causes the length of ink runner long, and residual too much ink is in the ink runner easily.In addition, the weld bond between print cartridge body and base plate is oversize, is difficult for forming good welding, even has the situation that ruptures easily and then cause ink leak.
This shows that above-mentioned existing print cartridge obviously still has inconvenience and defective, and demands urgently further being improved in structure and making.In order to solve the problem that print cartridge exists, relevant manufacturer there's no one who doesn't or isn't seeks solution painstakingly, but do not see always that for a long time suitable design finished by development, and common product does not have appropriate structure to address the above problem, this obviously is the problem that the anxious desire of relevant dealer solves.
