Description
Technical field
The utility model relates to a kind of cartridge of ink-jet printer and comprises the continuous ink-supply system of this print cartridge.
Background technology
Inkjet printer technologies of the prior art reaches best in order to guarantee printing effect, needs printer can discern in the print cartridge and the information relevant with print cartridge, as quantity of ink, and ink type, ink color etc.; Therefore can be provided with information storage part spare by print cartridge usually, and existing information storage part spare also comprises the print cartridge date of manufacture, print cartridge manufacturer, print cartridge production and territory of use, the initial total capacity of ink, ink remaining amount etc.; When print cartridge was mounted to printer, this storage area was with above-mentioned feedback information printer, and printer can be selected optimum mode of operation according to above-mentioned information, and when the ink surplus was less than predetermined value in print cartridge, the prompting user changed print cartridge.
Information storage part spare commonly used comprises volatile memory, as DRAM and SRAM, and nonvolatile memory, as PROM and EEPROM; Volatile memory, will obliterated data after having a power failure, as DRAM (dynamic random memory), be meant that after we write DRAM with data, through after a while, data will be lost, therefore need an additional circuit to carry out interior refresh operation, and SRAM (static random memory), its storage speed is very fast, is to have read and write the fastest memory device at present; And nonvolatile memory, after having a power failure, still can keep data, as PROM (programmable read only memory), be disposable, can't change after information deposits in, and EEPROM (Erasable Programmable Read Only Memory EPROM) can clash original program by ultraviolet irradiation, but the information write time is very slow, and is very long; Though so Card read/write piece in the volatile memory, but after the outage, data are just lost in it, though and nonvolatile memory information after power down still keeps, the information that writes is very slow, sends the change data frequency like this and has surpassed its preservation data frequency, cause loss of data easily, and when writing information, need the very long wait of user, allow the user can not put up with.
In order to address the above problem, China bulletin patent CN201707552 provide a kind of print cartridge storage chip, comprise control module, memory cell, interface unit and battery, the data that parse in the information of the imaging device output that control module receives interface unit write and the data in the memory cell are read and integrated signal is exported to imaging device by interface unit, and memory cell comprises nonvolatile memory and volatile memory; Battery is powered to storage chip, and control module is transferred to the data in the nonvolatile memory in the volatile memory, and volatile memory and imaging device carry out exchanges data.So not only had non-volatile not only can but also the quick storage data, can keep communication normal and the data storage is intact again.
In order to power to storage chip, a kind of mode of thinking very much adopts little, the easy for installation button cell of volume; But the electric weight of button cell is limited, if the less at ordinary times printing of user when perhaps the user uses continuous ink-supply system, needs battery-powered time longer, the electric weight of button cell can not satisfy the printing needs.
Want to power to storage chip continuously and stably, just battery stably must be installed.And normally used method just is to use a battery case in the prior art, and two electrode slices are set in battery case, then battery case is sticked on the print cartridge; This mode is in print cartridge moves around process with the word car, and battery is loosening, very unstable easily.Another kind of mode is exactly to offer a very big groove in the housing of print cartridge in addition, and battery is installed in the groove; But reduced the ink reservoir volume of print cartridge like this; And make in this way the continuous ink-supply system, also need above battery case, install and ink tube connector that external bottle is connected, like this user's unusual inconvenience when the replacing battery.
The utility model content
The utility model provides a kind of print cartridge, and especially a kind of continuous ink-supply system with this print cartridge has solved the battery that storage chip is powered on print cartridge in the prior art instability is installed, and the technical problem of changing the battery inconvenience.
In order to address the above problem, the technical approach that the utility model is taked is:
A kind of cartridge of ink-jet printer, comprise: main body, be arranged at be used in the described main body to store the ink ink storage chamber, with ink feed in the described ink storage chamber introduce in the print cartridge to the ink outlet port of printer, in described ink storage chamber ink ink entry, be used to store the information relevant with print cartridge and with the storage chip of printer swap data, be used for the battery of powering and be used to hold the battery case of described battery to storage chip, it is characterized in that it is one-body molded with described main body that described battery case is positioned at the ink storage chamber top.
Described main body comprises main frame and sidewall; Described ink storage chamber, ink outlet port, ink entry are arranged in this main frame; Sidewall on described battery case and the main body is one-body molded.
Described battery is connected with described storage chip by lead, and described lead is set in the packing parcel of outside batteries.
Described battery case is arranged on the position that sidewall is installed near storage chip, and described main frame be provided with one with the corresponding recess of battery case, described recess is littler than battery case.
Described storage chip is provided with the switch that the storage chip internal information is resetted.
A kind of continuous ink-supply system, comprise print cartridge, to the external bottle of described print cartridge supply ink, will described external bottle of tube connector that is connected with print cartridge; Described external bottle is arranged to store a large amount of inks, and described tube connector one end is connected with external bottle bottom, and the other end is connected with described print cartridge top ink entry; Described external bottle also is provided with ink filling mouth and gas arrives inlet, it is characterized in that described print cartridge is above-mentioned arbitrary print cartridge.
After adopting technique scheme,, so just can guarantee that battery is stably mounted because battery case and toner cartridge main body are integrally formed; Battery case is arranged on the ink storage chamber top, and the position of close storage chip, battery directly is connected with storage chip by parcel lead within it, make battery altering convenient like this, and whole arranging more step up to urge, and reduces the volume of print cartridge, and the storage chip delivery is guaranteed reliably.
And use the continuous ink-supply system of this print cartridge, after adopting this technical scheme, saved and worried do not have battery, and a large amount of inks have been arranged in the continuous ink-supply system that causes because of storage chip, and the problem that printer can not be discerned; In addition lead is set in the packing parcel of outside batteries, saved electrode slice like this, and technology also can not influences the overall performance of battery when outside batteries has small volume of ink.
