Description

Printing mechanism and ink cartridges thereof and load bearing seat
Technical field
Relevant a kind of ink cartridges of the present invention and load bearing seat thereof refer to a kind of printing mechanism that is used for ink-jet printer especially, and the ink cartridges and the load bearing seat that constitute this printing mechanism.
Background technology
The development of the existing certain degree of inkjet technology, for example commercial electronic products such as printer, duplicator and facsimile machine all successfully utilize ink-jet technology to print, duplicate or export.The load bearing seat (carriage) that comprises one or more straight line back and forth movements in the typical ink-jet printer moves to be used to carrying ink cartridges (ink cartridge) and to go up at printed medium (print media), carries out ink-jet in order to the ink gun of ink cartridges.The method that existing ink cartridges is installed in load bearing seat can be distinguished into two kinds haply: a kind of is the trip mode; Another kind is a loam cake pressure holding mode.Both way differences also respectively have its pluses and minuses, below are narrated respectively:
One, trip mode: its main way is for making a location trip and match with the load bearing seat of printer below ink cartridges, and the ink cartridges top increases by a trip in addition and match with elastomer on the printer load bearing seat, and then reaches pressure holding and fixing purpose.Yet, tradition trip design has following shortcoming: (1) is gone up machine and is difficult for: owing to utilize its plane of orientation of location of trip very little, with respect to also relative very little in the cooperation plane of load bearing seat, and it is positioned at the lowermost portion of ink cartridges, be difficult for the visual machine of going up, time card colludes the situation that comes off with the load bearing seat poor fit on the desire so often cause; (2) structural design difficulty: the trip contact-making surface of location is very little, but need consider strength problem, so it is not easy to need to average out between the two; And (3) cost is higher: contact to some extent with residual ink because the location trip of ink cartridges is as easy as rolling off a log, so must use endurance and the higher ejaculation raw material of corrosion resistance, relatively improve compared to its cost of general plastics.
Two, loam cake pressure holding mode: traditional loam cake pressure holding mode is that a loam cake is set on printer, and cooperate the loam cake of ink cartridges body to make a buckle, when the ink cartridges body is put into, relend and guide to correct last seat in the plane by loam cake and put, but also have following shortcoming: when (1) ink cartridges body is put in advance, because no any guiding device, so the flexible circuit board of ink cartridges is destroyed by the contact stud of load bearing seat and cause circuit breaker and can't go up machine; And in (2) ink cartridges body palpus placement particular range position and the angle, loam cake can cover smoothly, finishes ink cartridges and correctly installs.Because no any guiding device need repeat to place repeatedly sometimes, can cover loam cake smoothly.
Because foregoing problems, the trend of a kind of ink cartridges of development and the printing mechanism that load bearing seat combined thereof is just arranged, cause problems such as the bad or ink cartridges damage of machine because of faulty operation to prevent the user, and effectively reduce cost.
Summary of the invention
The printing mechanism that the object of the present invention is to provide a kind of ink cartridges, load bearing seat and combine causes problems such as the bad or ink cartridges damage of machine to prevent the user because of faulty operation, and can reduce cost effectively.
For reaching above-mentioned purpose, a kind of printing mechanism of the present invention, be used in the ink-jet printer, it comprises: an ink cartridges, has a body, this body has an end face, a bottom surface, one first side and one second side, and wherein this first side is relative with this second side and have a guidance part respectively; An and load bearing seat, it has one first side, one second side, one the 3rd side and a bottom surface, wherein this first side, this second side, the 3rd side and this bottom surface form an appearance receipts portion, this first routine face is relative with this second side and form a guide groove respectively, this guide groove is used for matching with this guidance part of this ink cartridges, so that this ink cartridges is removable installed in this appearance receipts portion.
According to conception of the present invention, wherein this guidance part is to extend to this bottom edge inclination from this top edge of this ink cartridges.
According to conception of the present invention, wherein this of this ink cartridges first side also comprises a plurality of setting elements, matches with this first side of this load bearing seat when being beneficial to this ink cartridges and inserting this load bearing seat, makes the first direction location of this ink cartridges in this load bearing seat whereby.
According to conception of the present invention, wherein this setting element can be projection.
According to conception of the present invention, wherein this guidance part of this ink cartridges has a plane of orientation, and this guide groove of this load bearing seat has a plane of orientation, whereby when this ink cartridges is inserted this load bearing seat, this plane of orientation of this guidance part contacts with this plane of orientation of this guide groove, so that this ink cartridges is in the second direction location of this load bearing seat.
According to conception of the present invention, the bottom surface of this ink cartridges extension that stretches out wherein, the side of this extension has a location projection, this bottom surface of this load bearing seat has an opening, whereby when this ink cartridges is inserted this load bearing seat, this extension extends this opening and replaces a side of this opening with this locating convex block, so that this ink cartridges is in the third direction location of this load bearing seat.
According to conception of the present invention, wherein this of this load bearing seat second side has one first spring bearer plate, with when this ink cartridges is inserted this load bearing seat, replaces this second side of this ink cartridges.
According to conception of the present invention, wherein this bottom surface of this load bearing seat also has one second spring bearer plate, with when this ink cartridges is inserted this load bearing seat, replaces this bottom surface of this ink cartridges.
