Description

Vorrichtung in einer Tintenstrahlschreibeinrichtung zum Ableiten von Verlusttinte Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Vorrichtung in einer Tintenstrahl-Blattschreibeinriehtung zum Ableiten von Verlusttinte aus dem längs der Zeile beweglichen Schreibkopf über einen Docht, der an eine den Schreibstrahl umgebende - Ringblende im Schreibkopf angeschlossen ist.Apparatus in an ink jet writing device for deriving Loss Ink The invention relates to an apparatus in an ink jet sheet writer to divert waste ink from the writing head which is movable along the line a wick that is attached to a ring diaphragm in the writing head that surrounds the writing beam connected.

Es ist bekannt, Informationen in Form von Zeichen auf einen Aufzeichnungsträger mit Hilfe eines Strahls einer gefärbten Flüssigkeit aufzubringen. Dieser Blüssigkeitsstrahl wird durch Anlegen eines elektr'schen Feldes entsprechend der Kontur des zu schreibenden Zeichens abgelenkt. Dabei wurde bereits eine Ablaufrinne zum Auffangen von betriebsmäßig anfallender Verlusttinte vorgeschlagen. In Schreibköpfen von Bla;ttschreibmasöhinen der eingangs genannten Art sammelt sich aber auch Verlusttinte durch Seltundäremission an. Es wurde bereits vorgeschlagen, solche Tintentropfen in einer den Tintenstrahl im Schreibkopf konzentrisch umgebenden Ringblende aufufangen und über einen an das untere Ende dieser Auffangvorrichtung angeschlossenen Docht einem Auffangbehälter zuzuleiten. Diese Arbeitsweise ist aber nur für Maschiner/mit Zeilenlängen von z. B. weniger als 10 cm mit Erfolg durchführbar. Bei längeren Zeilen ist das ständige Mitbewegen eines langen Dochts und eines diesen umschließenden Schlauchs ungünstig. Außerdem kann die Tinte auf dem langen Weg zum Abfallbehälter leicht eintrocknen und die Kapillarwirkung des Dochts beeinträchtigen.It is known to store information in the form of characters on a record carrier to be applied by means of a jet of a colored liquid. That stream of liquid is generated by applying an electrical field corresponding to the contour of the Distracted character. A drainage channel was already operational to collect suggested waste ink. In Bla's writing heads of the type mentioned at the beginning, however, lost ink also collects through rare emissions at. It has been proposed to use such ink droplets in an ink jet in the print head concentrically surrounding the ring diaphragm and connected to the lower end of this collecting device connected wick to a collecting container forward. This working method is only for machines / with line lengths of z. B. less than 10 cm feasible with success. For longer lines is the constant movement of a long wick and one that surrounds it Hose unfavorable. In addition, the ink can make the long way to the waste container dry slightly and impair the capillary action of the wick.

Diese Nachteile werden bei einer Blattschreibmaschine für beliebig lange Zeilen gemäß der Erfindung dadurch vermieden, daß ein kurzer, in einem nach unten in Richtung auf eine Tintensammelrinne gerichteten Schlauch angeordneter Docht vorgesehen ist, der in einem vorbestimmten Abstand über dieser Rinne endet und mindestens bei jedem vollen Wagenhub mit diesem Ende an einem Drahtbügel vorbeistreift.These disadvantages are unlimited in the case of a typewriter long lines according to the invention avoided by putting a short, in a after wick arranged at the bottom in the direction of a hose directed towards an ink collecting trough is provided which ends at a predetermined distance above this channel and at least with each full trolley stroke this end slips past a wire bracket.

Besonders günstige Verhältnisse ergeben sich gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung dadurch, daß der Drahtügel eine Schleife bildet und in einem eine Tintensammelrinne bildenden Blechstreifen einhängbar ist.Particularly favorable conditions result from a preferred one Embodiment of the invention in that the wire loop forms a loop and can be suspended in a sheet metal strip forming an ink collecting channel.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung ist im folgenden beschrieben und in der Zeichnun argestellt. Dabei zeigt Fig. 1 eine vereinfachte perspektivische Ansicht einer Tintenstrahlblattschreibeinrichtung, Fig. 2 eine Seitenansicht einer konstruktiven Ausführungsform eines Schreibkopfs mit Vorrichtung zum Ableiten von Verlusttinte.An embodiment of the invention is described below and shown in the drawing. 1 shows a simplified perspective View of an ink jet sheet writing device, Fig. 2 is a side view of a constructive embodiment of a write head with a device for deriving from Lost ink.

Bei einem Tintenstrahlscnreiber liegt der blattförmige Aufzeichnungsträger 1 auf einer für Schreibmaschinen üblichen Schreibwalze 2 auf. Ein Schreibkopf 3 wird in nicht näher dargestellter Weise längs der zu schreibenden Zeile entiang gefuhrt. Durch den Schreibkopf'wird ein Schreibstrahl in Tröpfchenform in Richtung auf die zu beschriftende Stelle wahrend des eigentlichen Schreibvorgangs geleitet. Die Kontur des aufzuzeichnenden Zeichens wird durch entsprechende AblenJmng des Schreibstrahls erzeugt. Durch Sekundäremission versprühte Verlusttinte wird in einem den Tintenstrahl 4 konzentrisch umgebenden Ringraum durch eine Ringblende 5 (Fig. 2) aufgefangen. Während über eine nichtgezeichnete Tintenpumpe und eine Zuleitung 6 dem Schreibkopf 3 tinte zugeführt wird, ist zur Ableitung der erwähnten Verlusttinte an die unterste Stelle der hohl geprüften Ringblende 5 ein kurzer Docht 7 angeklemmt, der, abgesehen vom unteren Ende, von einem Schutzschlauch 8 umhüllt ist. Der Docht 7 endet kurz oberhalb einer Tintensammelrinne 9. An dieser Rinne ist ein Drahtbügel 10 eingehängt, über den das Dochtende bei jedem Wagenhub, d. h. kurz nach Verlassen und kurz vor Erreichen der Wagenanfangsstellung hinweggleitet und dabei Tinte abschleudert. Wenn, wie häufig üblich, die Wagenbewegung bis zum Erreichen der Normalgeschwindigkeit einen Beervorhub durchführt,- kann das Abstreifen zur unbedingten Vermeidung von wenn auch geringfügigen Erschütterungen des Schreibkopfs in diese AnlSufphase gelegt werden. Sollte sich wider Erwarten in der Rinne 9 so viel Tinte ansammeln, daß sie nicht ein+rooknes, so kann sie über eine Aussparung 11 in einen fur andere Zwecke vorgesehenen Auffangbehälter 12 tropfen.In the case of an inkjet printer, the sheet-shaped recording medium lies 1 on one for typewriters usual platen 2 on. A Write head 3 is in a manner not shown along the to be written Line entiang led. A writing jet in the form of droplets is generated through the writing head in the direction of the point to be inscribed during the actual writing process directed. The contour of the character to be recorded is indicated by appropriate AblenJmng of the write beam generated. Loss ink sprayed by secondary emission becomes in an annular space concentrically surrounding the ink jet 4 through an annular diaphragm 5 (Fig. 2) collected. While an ink pump and a Lead 6 is supplied to the write head 3 ink, is to derive the mentioned Loss of ink at the lowest point of the hollow tested ring diaphragm 5 is a short wick 7 clamped, which, apart from the lower end, encased by a protective tube 8 is. The wick 7 ends just above an ink collecting channel 9. At this channel a wire bracket 10 is suspended, over which the end of the wick with each carriage stroke, i. H. shortly after leaving and shortly before reaching the initial position of the car throwing off ink. If, as is often the case, the carriage movement up to When the normal speed is reached, the berries are pushed forward, - the stripping can be done for the unconditional avoidance of even minor jolts of the print head be placed in this start-up phase. Should, contrary to expectations, be in channel 9 like this accumulate a lot of ink so that they are not a + rooknes, so they can have a recess 11 drip into a collecting container 12 provided for other purposes.
