Abstract

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Drucker, insbesondere Serialdrucker, mit einem Belichtungskopf zur Belichtung von Druckbildern und einem Belichtungskopfgehäuse, in dem eine von Reflektoren (11, 12, 13, 14, 36, 37) zumindest teilweise umgebene Lampe (18) angeordnet ist, die bei Betrieb Strahlung emittiert, welche durch die Reflektoren (11, 12, 13, 14, 36, 37) auf eine mit lichtaushärtender Tinte bedruckbare Druckbildebene (40) geleitet wird.The invention relates to a printer, in particular serial printer, with an exposure head for the exposure of printed images and an exposure head housing, in which one of reflectors (11, 12, 13, 14, 36, 37) at least partially surrounded lamp (18) is arranged at Operation radiation emitted, which is passed through the reflectors (11, 12, 13, 14, 36, 37) on a light-curing ink printable image plane (40).

Damit einen solchen Drucker mit einem Belichtungskopf zur Aushärtung von lichthärtender Tinte in der Dimension eines Auftischgerät für Büroanwendungen verwenden zu können, sind elliptische Reflektoren (11, 12) sowie ebene Reflektoren (13, 14, 36, 37) in dem Belichtungskopfgehäuse montiert.In order to be able to use such a printer with an exposure head for curing light-curing ink in the dimension of a table-top device for office applications, elliptical reflectors (11, 12) and planar reflectors (13, 14, 36, 37) are mounted in the exposure head housing.

Ferner ist vorgeschlagen, die vorbeschriebene Aufgabe dadurch zu lösen, dass eine Gebläseeinheit über mindestens einen Luftleitkanal mit dem Belichtungskopf verbunden ist, wobei der Luftleitkanal in einen Kühlluftraum (48) zwischen den Reflektoren (11, 12, 13, 14) und den Seitenwänden des Belichtungskopfgehäuses mündet.

Figure imgaf001
It is also proposed to achieve the above-described object by connecting a blower unit to the exposure head via at least one air duct, the air duct into a cooling air space (48) between the reflectors (11, 12, 13, 14) and the side walls of the exposure head housing empties.
