Definitions

  • the invention relates to an ink jet writing head, in particular for marking devices, with an ink chamber connected to an ink pressure source / in which a plurality of closure bodies, each of which seals an ink spray nozzle, are arranged, each of which is connected to a pull rod which is axially movable from the ink chamber through in each case an actuation opening are brought out and connected to a drive device.
  • Such inkjet printheads are used in particular as printheads for marking devices, with which labeling is applied to objects, for example packages, which are moved along the printhead.
  • the ink spray nozzles of the print head are arranged in a row close to one another and are actuated by the drive devices assigned to each individual closure body by means of a control device in such a way that the desired inscription is produced on the object being passed.
  • a constructive difficulty of such ink jet print heads arises from the fact that the individual ink spray nozzles must be arranged sufficiently close to one another, but that the drive devices, usually electromagnets, are of such dimensions that they cannot be arranged as close together as the ink spray nozzles.
  • the drive devices are usually arranged on both sides of the plane containing the ink spray nozzles, and their drive movement is transmitted to the closure bodies.
  • This transmission can be carried out by flexible wires, each of which is connected on the one hand to the closure body and on the other hand to an actuating magnet as the drive device (DE-OS 33 02 617).
  • the object of the invention is therefore to design an ink jet writing head of the type mentioned in such a way that a complete and effective sealing of the pull rods led out of the ink chamber is made possible without impairment of function.
  • This object is achieved in that a drawbar seal which is deformable in the axial direction of the drawbar is arranged between each actuation opening and the drawbar and is firmly connected to both the actuation opening and the drawbar.
  • the seal according to the invention can be made very slim. Their radial dimensions are not greater than the distance specified by the distance between adjacent ink spray nozzles.
  • the tie rod seal is designed as a truncated cone-shaped sealing sleeve, which is fastened sealingly with its further end to the edge of the actuating opening and, with its narrower end, surrounds the push rod in a sealing manner.
  • Such slim sealing sleeves can be designed, for example, as bellows.
  • the high ductility provided by this design enables the sealing sleeve to be made of metal.
  • the sealing sleeve can also be designed as an essentially smooth truncated cone; In this embodiment, for example, elastically deformable plastic or preferably rubber or rubber is used.
  • Fig. 2 is an enlarged partial section through an ink jet write head in the region of a single ink spray nozzle and
  • Fig. 3 shows a section similar to FIG. 2 in a modified embodiment.
  • the inkjet write head 1 shown in FIG. 1 has an ink chamber 2, which is connected via a line 3 to an ink pressure source (not shown), for example an ink pump.
  • a plurality of ink spray nozzles 5 are arranged in a row in a front wall 4 of the ink chamber 2.
  • the ink jet emerging from an ink spray nozzle 5 strikes an object 6 to be signed, which is moved along at a distance from the wall 4, the outer surface of which is only indicated in FIG. 1 by a dash-dotted line.
  • each breech body 7 is connected to a pull rod 8, for example designed as a tube, through a Actuating opening 9 is led out of the ink chamber 2 and is connected at its other end to a movable armature 10 of an electromagnet 11, which forms the drive device for the closure body 7.
  • the pull rod 8 can also be designed flexibly as a wire.
  • a seal is arranged, which is designed as a slim, truncated cone sealing sleeve or sealing sleeve 12, which is fastened sealingly with its further end to the edge of the actuating opening 9 and with its narrower end the pull rod 8 sealing embraces. Details and embodiments of these
  • the pull rod 8 in the ink chamber 2 is guided in an axially movable manner in a guide 13, which, however, does not constitute a seal for the ink.
  • a tube 14 connects to the guide 13.
  • the end of the tube 14 which faces the guide 13 forms the actuating opening 9.
  • the tube end holds a bead 15 which forms the further end of the sealing sleeve 12 which is designed here as a smooth truncated cone. In this way, the sealing sleeve 12 is sealingly received in the actuation opening 9.
  • the sealing sleeve 12 tapers in the direction away from the guide 13 and encloses the pull rod 8 in a sealing manner with its narrower tubular end 16.
  • the sealing sleeve 12 consists here, for example, of elastically deformable plastic or preferably of rubber.
  • Fig. 3 differs from the embodiment of Fig. 2 in that the substantially frusto-conical sealing sleeve 12 'is a metallic bellows, which is received with its other end on the end facing away from the ink chamber 2 of the tube 14 sealing .
  • This end of the tube 14 forms the actuation opening 9.
  • the sealing sleeve 12 'tapers in the direction of the ink jet chamber 2 and encloses the pull rod 8 with its narrower end as described. Also in this embodiment, when the pull rod 8 is actuated axially, the sealing sleeve 12 is elastically deformed in the axial direction of the pull rod 8 without any sealing friction .

Abstract

Une chambre à encre (2) reliée à une source de pression pour l'encre est agencée dans une tête d'écriture à jet d'encre (1), conçue en particulier pour les appareils à marquer. Plusieurs éléments d'obturation (7), qui obturent chacun une buse de jet d'encre (5), sont agencés dans la chambre à encre (2). Chaque élément d'obturation (7) est relié à un élément d'entraînement par l'intermédiaire d'une tige de traction (8). Chaque tige de traction (8) sort de la chambre à encre (2) à travers une ouverture d'actionnement (9). Une garniture de tige de traction, agencée sur chacune des ouvertures d'actionnement (9), consiste en une mince gaine d'étanchéité (12) de forme tronconique, élastiquement déformable dans le sens axial, dont l'extrémité la plus large est reliée au bord de l'ouverture d'actionnement (9) de manière à la rendre étanche, tandis que son extrémité étroite entoure la tige de traction (8) de manière étanche. Lorsque la tige de traction (8) se déplace axialement, la gaine d'étanchéité (12) ne se déforme qu'axialement, sans friction.
