Print cartridge 1 can be adorned usually and is installed on the carrying ink box frame 2 with getting; And exist structure to be connected between carrier 2 and the printer; Wherein, Carrying ink box frame 2 can be formed on the printer along the record direction of paper and the part of the balladeur train that moves around, and promptly the print cartridge carrier can be integrally formed with the internal structure of printer.Preferably, in the present embodiment, carrier 2 is independent of print cartridge 1 and balladeur train and forms separately, and it is removably mounted on the balladeur train.Fig. 2 a and Fig. 2 b are the structural representation of the utility model carrying ink box frame 2.As shown in Figure 2, this carrying ink box frame 2 comprises the cavity 21 that holds print cartridge 1, the hole 22 of matching with the ink outlet port 11 of above-mentioned print cartridge 1 and matches to be fixed in the locating hole 23 on the balladeur train with reference column (not shown) on the printer carriage.
In addition, manage the information that print cartridge 1 is correlated with better, be provided with the chip (not shown) of a storage print cartridge 1 relevant information on the print cartridge 1 usually in order to make printer.When carrier 2 constituted a part of structure of balladeur train, chip was positioned on the print cartridge 1; In the present embodiment,, cooperate easily in order to make between print cartridge 1 and the carrier 2 because carrier 2 is one to be independent of the member of balladeur train and print cartridge 1, preferably, with chip be arranged on the carrier 2 with the corresponding position of the dynamo-electric contact pilotage of printing on.Those of ordinary skills should be understood that chip can be loaded on the print cartridge 1 equally, only need on the carrier 2 to hollow out with the chip position corresponding section to get final product.
Wherein, The print cartridge relevant information of storing in the chip comprise term of validity, color, quantity of ink, toner cartridge type of ink etc., and chip comprises several electric contacts; Can be electrically connected with corresponding electric contact pilotage on the printer and and set up information exchanging channel between the printer, what guarantee to print normally carries out.Because the manufacturing cost of chip occupies the larger proportion of print cartridge manufacturing cost, preferably, for the use cost that makes the user is reduced; Chip internal is provided with a reset circuit, and when its judgement quantity of ink information wherein was lower than predetermined value, it can be reset to initial ink capacity value with quantity of ink information; Like 100% ink value, like this, the user only need change print cartridge and get final product; Need not to change chip, like this, can reduce user's use cost.Obviously, 2 need of carrier that are provided with above-mentioned reset function chip printer of when using first, packing into need not to take out afterwards; Can become the part of printer; Then can reduce the friction between chip contacts and the printer contact pilotage, reduce the wearing and tearing of printer contact pilotage, its life-span is prolonged.
Shown in Fig. 3 a; Be provided with two magnetics 14,15 respectively near carrier 2 places on the relative two side 16,17 on the print cartridge 1; And on the two side 26,27 that carrier 2 is inner and print cartridge 1 is relative, also be respectively equipped with two magnetic matching bodies 24,25; And magnetic 14,15 has first magnetic pole, and magnetic matching body 24,25 has second magnetic pole.Preferably, in the present embodiment, magnetic 14,15 and magnetic matching body 24,25 are permanent magnet, and the distance between two magnetic parts is 1-10mm, and the magnetic flux range of choice is 500~10000 Gausses, and preferably, distance between the two is 1-3mm.Fig. 3 d is the magnetic that is complementary of position and the magnetic pole distribution schematic diagram of magnetic matching body; Obviously; First magnetic pole of magnetic that the position is complementary and magnetic matching body and second magnetic pole are the arctic (N), and two magnetic poles are relative, and those of ordinary skills should understand; It is relative that above-mentioned magnetic and magnetic matching body can be arranged to two South Pole (S) equally, and promptly first magnetic pole and second magnetic pole are the South Pole at this moment.So, according to magnetic principles, there is a natural attraction between the sexes, and the same sex is repelled each other, and that is to say, has mutual expelling force between first magnetic pole and second magnetic pole, promptly magnetic 14,15 and magnetic matching body 24, have mutual expelling force between 25.That is to say that when print cartridge 1 inserts on the carrying ink box frame 2, and the magnetic force scope of magnetic and magnetic matching body is when overlapping, print cartridge both sides 16,17 or carrier both sides 26,27 all receive the effect of mutual expelling force.Shown in Fig. 1 b; Be formed with the recess 12 of placing magnetic 14,15 on the print cartridge two side 16,17 respectively, and two recesses 12 against each other, in like manner; Shown in Fig. 2 b, also be formed with respectively on carrier 2 two sides 26,27 and place magnetic matching body two recesses 30 24,25, relative; Wherein, Above-mentioned two magnetic parts can be separately fixed on print cartridge 1 and the carrying ink box frame 2 through the preset mode of imbedding; Also can post respectively on print cartridge 1 and carrying ink box frame 2 through gluing mode; Particularly, those of ordinary skills can select the mode of different fixed according to the demand of aspects such as production technology, production efficiency.
Fig. 3 a is pack into the fully view of carrier 2 of print cartridge 1, and Fig. 3 d then is the position view of two magnetic parts this moment.Shown in Fig. 3 a and Fig. 3 d; When print cartridge 1 is installed in 2 last times of carrying ink box frame, the misalignment of magnetic 14,15 and magnetic matching body 24,25, magnetic 14,15 overlaps with magneticaction scope at least a portion of magnetic matching body 24,25; That is to say; When print cartridge 1 was packed the state of carrier 2 fully into, print cartridge 1 both sides still received mutual expelling force, and this mutual expelling force can make print cartridge 1 stably remain on the carrier 2 to match with printer.
Usually, because the sealing ring/cotton core of print cartridge ink outlet port 11 and the effect that the mutual extrusion between printer ink-providing pin/ink supply port seals, make print cartridge behind the printer of packing into, allow moving up to a certain degree; But unsuitable excessive, yet ink-jet printer is in transportation; Jolted easily or vibrated, and made the print cartridge that is positioned at the wherein bigger distance of play that makes progress when vibrating easily, if print cartridge adopts elastic rod to be connected to the structure in the printer when it receives; Then cause print cartridge to break away from printer easily; Cause the sealing between print cartridge ink outlet port and the printer ink-providing pipe not firm, air gets in the printer easily, and ink leaks easily.The utility model can address the above problem, the view of carrier 2 when Fig. 3 b is print cartridge 1 generation play, and Fig. 3 e then is the position view of two magnetic parts this moment.Shown in Fig. 3 b and Fig. 3 e, when print cartridge 1 in transportation slight play took place, it can make progress and do slightly to move (here for knowing representation scheme; The distance of play waited exaggerate processings), the then magneticaction scope increase that overlaps with magnetic matching body 24,25 of magnetic 14,15 is owing to carrier 2 is static at this moment; And print cartridge 1 moves, and then the mutual expelling force that receives of carrier 2 both sides can increase, shown in Fig. 3 b; Be mutual expelling force can promote carrier 2 both sides along the arrow A direction; Be equivalent to carrier 2 towards the direction that cooperates with printer, deform, make carrier 2 be fixed in the printer more firmly.Because the effect of power is mutual, so print cartridge equally also receives the effect of both sides mutual expelling force and it is fixed on the above-mentioned position 1 this moment.Obviously, when the central lines of two magnetic parts, carrier 2 suffered repulsion are maximum, and its distortion this moment is also just maximum.Should note here; Owing to locate through mutual expelling force between print cartridge 1 and the carrier 2; When having only the active force of the vibration that makes progress that receives when print cartridge 1 to surpass repulsion between the two; The play of above-mentioned big distance just can take place in print cartridge 1, that is to say, adopts the present technique scheme can reduce the play of print cartridge 1 on above-below direction to a certain extent.One skilled in the art will appreciate that the play distance that allows between magnetic 14,15 and magnetic matching body 24, the dislocation distance between 25 and print cartridge ink outlet port 11 and the ink supply pin interrelates, concrete numerical value can obtain via experiment, does not give unnecessary details at this.Can know that from foregoing description print cartridge is packed into behind the carrier, in the time of just in print cartridge is packed printer into, magnetic can overlap or misplace with the center line of magnetic matching body each other, only need exist certain repulsion to get final product between the two.
Fig. 3 c is the view that print cartridge 1 is extracted carrier 2, significantly, as long as the upwards pulling-inserting force (shown in arrow B) that the user is applied to print cartridge 1 can be extracted print cartridge 1 during greater than the repulsion between above-mentioned print cartridge 1 and the carrier 2.Same; In extracting the process of print cartridge; Also can experience the process of the magnetic force scope coincidence of two magnetic parts shown in Fig. 3 b, that is to say, carrier can be owing to the increase of mutual expelling force towards cooperate direction distortion more closely with printer in the process of extracting; Be that carrier is not easy to be pulled out along with extracting of print cartridge, can guarantee that it rests in the printer.
Shown in Fig. 2 a, carrying ink box frame 2 the place aheads also are provided with a wall extension 29, and its sidewall 27 from carrier 2 extends towards cavity 21, make after print cartridge 1 is installed on the carrier 2, can limit the motion of print cartridge at fore-and-aft direction.
Below the use of print cartridge 1 and carrying ink box frame 2 is described.
(1) at first, carrying ink box frame 2 at first is installed in the printer, several electric contacts on the chip match with the corresponding electric contact pilotage of printer respectively and are electrically connected to set up; Be to carry out information exchange between chip and the printer; We can say that at this moment, printer has thought that print cartridge 1 packed into;
(2) the air guide film with print cartridge 1 tears, and then print cartridge 1 is packed in the printer, shown in Fig. 3 a; When print cartridge 1 is in place; Print cartridge 1 is arranged in the cavity 21 of carrier 2, and the sealing ring of ink outlet port 11 is connected with the ink supply pin of printer, and dislocation to a certain degree takes place the center line of magnetic 14,15 and magnetic matching body 24,25; But the magneticaction scope of two magnetic parts still partially overlaps, so the repulsion between two magnetic parts makes print cartridge 1 be fixed on the carrier 2;
(3) beginning printing consumes the ink in the print cartridge 1;
(4) when consumption of ink to the predetermined value of print cartridge 1; The reset circuit of chip internal moves and makes chip China and Mexico water yield information be reset to initial China ink amount information; Printer prompts is changed print cartridge 1 simultaneously; At this moment, only needing to utilize active force greater than above-mentioned mutual expelling force that print cartridge 1 is taken out from printer gets final product;
The new print cartridge that (5) ink will be housed is then packed into according to step (2) in the printer, can proceed to print.
Those of ordinary skills should understand; Both can have matching relationship between above-mentioned print cartridge 1 and the carrying ink box frame 2; Also can be each other independent, obviously, if between two parts when independent each other; The moving of print cartridge 1 can not influence being electrically connected between chip contacts and the dynamo-electric contact pilotage of printing, and be favourable to communicating by letter between print cartridge and the printer.
Obviously, adopt two magnetic parts to repel each other and carry out the structure of print cartridge 1 and carrying ink box frame 2 location, can stably remain on print cartridge in the printer through mutual expelling force; Needn't use the elastic rod of easy place creep, and can also avoid it that play takes place easily, even and assurance print cartridge 1 when play takes place; Can prevent that also chip contacts from receiving the pollution of ink; And easy to install, simple in structure, can enhance productivity.
In addition, those of ordinary skills should be understood that different carrying ink box framves and the magnetic pole between the print cartridge can change according to color or print cartridge kind.As shown in Figure 4; The magnetic pole of black print cartridge and black print cartridge carrier is that N-N is relative, and the magnetic pole of colour ink box and colour ink box carrier is that S-S is relative, so when colour ink box is inserted into black print cartridge carrier; Then the magnetic pole between print cartridge and the carrier is that S-N is relative; Then the user can experience print cartridge and received the attraction from carrier this moment, but not mutual expelling force, can judge that print cartridge adorned mistake.Obviously, through different mutual expelling force or the phase suction that produced of the arrangement of experiencing magnetic pole, can prevent that the print cartridge dress is wrong.
In addition, those of ordinary skills should be understood that on the carrying ink box frame 2 that near being formed with a projection 28 on the either side in the two side, this projection 28 can cooperate with the groove 13 that is positioned at print cartridge 1 sidewall.Wherein, Above-mentioned projection 28 and groove 13 can be arranged to different length according to the color or the kind of print cartridge, and obviously, projection 28 and the groove 13 through different length matches can be from physically preventing between the different print cartridges dress mistake each other; This technology is a common technique, does not give unnecessary details at this.
Above embodiment only is used to explain the technical scheme of the utility model; Should be pointed out that to those skilled in the art, under the prerequisite that does not break away from the utility model design; Can also make some distortion and improvement, these all belong in the protection domain of the utility model.
