Description

Print cartridge
Technical field
The utility model relates to the print cartridge that a kind of ink-jet printer is used, particularly a kind of print cartridge that adopts check valve control ink to flow.
Background technology
With the matching used print cartridge of ink-jet printer, its primary structure comprises the ink storage chamber that is used to store ink, keeps the pore of air pressure balance with external environment condition, to the ink outlet port of the printhead ink supply of printer.In print procedure, in order to keep the sealed storage requirement of normal black liquid supply and ink, must make the ink in the print cartridge be in suitable negative pressure state, for realizing that this kind state adopts the technical measures of dual mode usually, in ink storage chamber, insert porous class material first, for example cavernous body keeps the ink sealing by capillary effect; Second utilize self frame for movement of print cartridge, be aided with suitable seal part or check valve.
In the ink-jet printer running, the print cartridge supporting with it, utilize print cartridge self frame for movement and do not use the print cartridge of sponge kind porous class thing especially merely, one of inking mode that it is common, insert in the print cartridge ink outlet port by the ink supply pin that will have black fluid through-hole exactly, the ink supply needle-penetration the ink outlet port end along or the inner chamber diaphragm seal or the diaphragm seal that are provided with, make black liquid flow into from ink outlet port that the mode of the black fluid through-hole the ink supply pin realizes.Usually the ink supply pin adopts hardness or the very large metal material preparation of intensity, and print cartridge then adopts hardness or the bigger plastics preparation of intensity.Therefore, ink supply pin and print cartridge all have bigger rigidity, and plasticity is relatively poor.Under this state, between ink supply pin and print cartridge, realize the transmission of black liquid, can also prevent that black liquid from leaking, and also must be equipped with necessary seal means simultaneously between ink supply pin and print cartridge ink outlet port.Common seal means normally is provided with sealing ring in ink supply port.Early stage ink-cases of printers often uses its middle part to have the sealing ring of through hole.But this sealing ring banding ink supply pin shank outer surface provides black liquid sealing function between shank and print cartridge ink outlet port, and the black liquid in the print cartridge can only be flowed out by the black fluid through-hole from the ink supply pin.This print cartridge frame mode, because sealing ring itself has through hole, cause in the print cartridge process is installed, can produce a spot of black liquid when removing the ink outlet port diaphragm seal reveals, and when the dismounting print cartridge, residual China ink in the print cartridge is sealing ring through hole outflow in vain also, forms working environment easily and pollutes, and stains recording mediums such as paper.Simultaneously since the ink supply pin inserting or extracting out in the print cartridge ink outlet port in a flash, can in ink outlet port, form bigger moment supercharging or the negative pressure of numerical value, cause ink excessive along the slit between the print cartridge member, perhaps return and scurry in the black chamber of storage along print cartridge inner chamber pipeline, perhaps be pressed into nozzle along ink supply pin internal ink road, reduce print quality, or damage printhead.
Existing sponge-free ink box is on being mounted to printer the time, and the ink supply pin pierces through the ink outlet port diaphragm seal and enters in the ink outlet port in the extremely short time.Because the volume in the ink outlet port is less relatively, the ink supply pin that inserts in it will cause the compression shock of big numerical value in short-term to the ink in the ink outlet port.The pressurized ink will follow that associated pipe discharges its increased pressure in the slit at ink outlet port position or the ink outlet port, promptly along the liquid road between ink storage chamber and ink outlet port, ink outlet port to the sealing off gap of box body outside and the ink flow line of printhead inside transmit.In the excessive situation of pressure, liquid road between ink storage chamber and ink outlet port and the ink outlet port sealing to the sealing off gap of box body outside will be destroyed, the lighter forms black liquid and reveals, and pollutes work top or printer, and the sealing property that weight person damages the ink interface channel causes print cartridge to scrap; Perhaps cause the ink flow duct of printhead inside excessive and impaired because of pressure.
