Definitions
- the invention relates to an ink cartridge for ink jet printers according to the preamble of the main claim, comprising an outer housing and an inner ink container, in particular an ink bag, which has an Tintenauslass choir through which the ink container from the outside is liquid-contactable.
- an ink cartridge for self-aligning insertion into a printer is known.
- This comprises an outer housing, which is in practice made of plastic, in which an ink bag is provided, whose flexible outer walls are formed by aluminum or nylon foil.
- the ink bag is liquid-conductively contactable through an ink outlet piece by the printer via interface means or piercing means associated with the printer.
- a puncture needle of the interface means of the printer penetrates into the ink outlet piece.
- On a front wall of the outer housing guide openings are provided which serve to receive printer-side guide extensions. These guide openings cooperate with the printer-side extensions in such a way that when the cartridge is inserted into the printer, the cartridge first contacts the printer-side extensions and is brought into position by them. Subsequently, the puncture needle penetrates into the ink outlet piece in a defined position.
- the guide function of the guide openings is ensured by the installation of the printer-side projections on the inner circumference of the guide openings or the resulting counterpressure.
- the diameter of the projections on the printer corresponds approximately to the diameter of the guide openings.
- a support plate is provided on the ink bag, which serves to stiffen the ink bag on a bag side.
- a level indicator is provided, which as soon as the ink bag (almost) dead ink protrudes through a recess in the outer housing.
- the level indicator can exert pressure on a switch (mounted outside the ink cartridge) in the printer, allowing the printer to detect a low ink level in the cartridge.
- a similar ink cartridge is described in DE 692 14 512 T2 (EP 016 088 B1).
- the ink cartridge described therein is characterized in that the ink outlet piece is circular in cross section and in the ink outlet piece is formed a circular groove which is positively connected to the outer case so that the ink outlet piece is held and positioned in a predetermined position relative to the housing , In the outer housing, a semicircular notch is provided for receiving the groove of the Tintenauslass Swisses.
- an ink cartridge is disclosed in which the support plate has coplanar depressed portions by which the support plate is supported by the outer housing. When emptying the ink cartridge, the coplanar protruding portions rub along the inside of the outer case.
- US 2005/0151813 A1 discloses a printing frame, in particular for printing on T-shirts, in which a multiplicity of freely positionable and guide-free ink reservoirs are placed on a frame.
- the ink reservoirs are connected to the printhead via flexible hoses intended to provide free placement.
- ink reservoirs which are connected via locally flexible hoses, to make out the outer housing also from a pulp material, such as cardboard or cardboard.
- these are commercially available plastic cartridges.
- Ink cartridges in contrast to the previously described free-floating ink reservoirs provided in addition to the ink cartridges, have guide means for aligning the ink cartridge relative to stationary piercing means in the printer during insertion.
- the interface means may for this purpose comprise counter-guide means, wherein these lead when inserting the ink cartridge, the ink cartridge by counter force on the guide means in a desired position.
- the present invention seeks to improve an ink cartridge for direct insertion into an inkjet printer so that it is ecologically sound and economically long term at stable prices can be produced.
- the object is achieved by means of an ink cartridge having the features of patent claim 1.
- Advantageous developments of the invention are described in the subclaims.
- the ink cartridge with the features of claim 1 allows over the prior art, a particularly environmentally friendly and future-proof design. This is achieved by using pulp as the main material for the outer casing, in particular, at least four, preferably at least six side surfaces of the outer casing are made of pulp. As a result, an environmentally friendly production and environmentally friendly disposal are possible.
- Pulp ie the chemical digestion of plant fibers, is made from naturally renewable raw materials, can be easily recycled and is itself mostly made from recycled material.
- the outer shell of a pulp ink cartridge is basically not suitable for use with interface means or for self-aligning insertion, since the necessary for a centering shaping can not be achieved easily. Also, a paper and / or cardboard material for the leadership function is not sufficiently stable or hard. It is therefore provided according to the invention that guide means, in particular a guide arm, on the outer shell of the Ink cartridge are provided so that the ink cartridge aligns itself when inserted into the printer relative to the ink port itself.
- These guide means are preferably made of a material (or material mixture or material combination), which has a higher stability than the material of the outer shell, with a higher rigidity (preferably measured by the modulus of elasticity and / or shear modulus), a higher strength (in particular Compressive strength) and / or a higher hardness (preferably measured by Shore, Mohs, Martens, Brinell and / or Rockwell) of the material is to be regarded, in particular comprises or consists of the material of plastic, metal and / or wood.
- These materials have the stability necessary for the alignment, so that the acting forces can be well absorbed, especially when the insertion into the printer is offset to the desired position, without causing any plastic deformation.
- the guide means comprise a guide arm laterally projecting on a longitudinal side wall of the cartridge.
- This guide arm is designed such that it can guide the ink cartridge by means of a guide, in particular a guide rail elongate in a desired insert direction, in the printer.
- a guide in particular a guide rail elongate in a desired insert direction, in the printer.
- it is preferably made of a material, a material alloy and / or a multi-layer structure, eg laminate, in particular with a support layer, comprising or consisting of plastic, metal and / or wood.
- the guide arm is formed as an angle element, while a leg protrudes through a recess in the longitudinal side wall of the ink cartridge, which is then contacted by the printer at its lying outside the outer housing part.
- a second leg of the angle is fixed to an inner wall of the ink cartridge, preferably glued thereto.
- the configuration of the guide arm as a T-shaped angle, whereby the guide arm can be fixed to a further surface of the outer housing. Due to the design as an angle element, the load capacity of the guide arm can be increased because the forces acting from outside on the guide arm can be partially absorbed.
- the guide arm is preferably provided on the lower part and fixed there.
- a recess for the guide pin is preferably provided in this case.
- this recess does not have to be adapted precisely to the guide arm, but can be significantly wider than this and in particular extend as far as the bottom of the ink cartridge.
- the guide means may comprise an axial extension and / or a recess made of a suitable material, in particular plastic, metal and / or wood.
- the outer casing should at least mostly be made of pulp, ie the area fraction of pulp on the inner and outer surfaces of the outer casing should be at least 80 percent, preferably at least 95 percent.
- the outer housing is formed by cardboard or cardboard, wherein cardboard essentially comprises a pulp having material with a weight per unit area of less than 600 g / m 2 and cardboard substantially pulp having material with a basis weight of about 600 g / m 2 .
- the corrugation of the corrugated cardboard is preferably a fine wave with a wave pitch between 3.0 mm and 3.5 mm and a wave height between 1, 0 mm and 1, 8 mm. These values provide a good compromise between stability and space requirements.
- the ink cartridge is cuboid and has side walls, more precisely a front wall, a rear wall, two longitudinal side walls, and a bottom and a lid, wherein the longitudinal extent of the ink cartridge is greater than the width extension and the width extension is greater than the height dimension.
- the longitudinal extent of the ink cartridge is preferably between 40 cm and 60 cm, in particular between 45 cm and 55 cm, its width is preferably between 9 cm and 1 1 cm and its vertical extent is preferably between 2 cm and 3 cm.
- the ink cartridge comprises a top and a bottom, which are formed so that they can be inserted into each other and together form the outer casing of the ink cartridge.
- the top includes the lid and sidewall layers.
- the lower part comprises the bottom and sidewall layers.
- the sidewall layers of the base lie within the sidewall layers of the top. Together they form the side walls of the ink cartridge, which are thereby at least partially double-walled (or double-layered) formed in the overlap region of the upper and lower part.
- the lid of the upper part is supported on the edges of the sidewall layers of the lower part.
- the bottom of the base is supported at the edges of the sidewall layers of the top.
- printer-side piercing means preferably penetrate into the ink outlet piece and form a liquid channel from the interior of the ink container to the ink nozzles of the printhead. Due to the two-part design of the ink cartridge assembly, especially in relation to the located in the outer housing ink container is significantly simplified. In a one-piece embodiment, the outer housing would have to be molded and tightened around the ink container in a complicated manner, which would also make the replacement of the ink container in the ink cartridge significantly more difficult.
- the front wall of the ink cartridge it has been found to be advantageous in the front wall of the ink cartridge to provide a recess through which the Tintenauslass choir is placed outside.
- the ink outlet protrudes beyond the front wall of the ink cartridge.
- interlocking means may be provided between the front wall and the ink container to space the ink container from the front wall, thereby forming a crumple zone between the front wall and the ink container which provides further security particularly when the ink cartridge is inserted into the printer from damage, especially the ink container forms.
- the interlocking means space the ink container by at least 0.5 cm from the front wall of the outer housing.
- the positive locking means ensure a secure fit of the ink container in the ink cartridge.
- at least one groove is provided in the ink outlet piece, which at least partially encloses the thickness of the front wall of the ink cartridge such that slippage of the ink container in the longitudinal direction is prevented by the side surfaces of the groove receiving the longitudinal forces.
- the ink outlet piece is circular in cross section. But it can easily against rotation of the ink container over the Outer case can be generated when both the cross section of the Tintenauslass GmbH.aussparung and the cross section of the Tintenauslass tenues are substantially rectangular, which is therefore preferred.
- a longitudinal side wall it has proven to be advantageous on a longitudinal side wall to provide a rising (guiding) flank from the direction of the front wall towards the rear wall, in particular in that the height extent of the longitudinal side wall decreases towards the front wall.
- This flank can serve as a guide mechanism when inserted into a printer.
- a counterpart to this edge is provided in the printer, thereby preventing the ink cartridge from being misaligned into the printer. This can not be done because the flank does not exist at the other edges of the ink cartridge, thus preventing insertion by the printer-side counterpart.
- a recess in the bottom which continues the side edge in the transverse direction, so that wherever the longitudinal side wall does not have the maximum height extent, the bottom starting at the flank has a gap of fixed width.
- the counterpart in the printer can be formed correspondingly wider by this further recess, whereby a misaligned insertion can be even better prevented, as a larger counter surface is available.
- the lid and / or the bottom of the ink cartridge can preferably be provided with an additional reinforcing layer, in particular likewise made of cellulose, preferably of single-walled corrugated cardboard, wherein the reinforcing layer is adhesively bonded, in particular cross-bonded, to the lid in the interior of the ink cartridge.
- the amplifier layer is smaller in area than the inner surface of the lid and has, for example, an edge distance of 1 to 5 mm, in particular 2 mm, to the longitudinal side walls of the ink cartridge. Through the amplifier layer of the lid or the Soil more loadable. Such an amplifier layer is conceivable not only on the lid or bottom but on all surfaces of the ink cartridge.
- the lid and / or the bottom particularly resilient, it has proven to be advantageous to arrange the amplifier layer so that the waves in the cardboard of the amplifier layer are orthogonal to the waves in the cardboard of the lid or the floor. As a result, the lid or the bottom is stiffened in the shaft direction of the lid or the floor.
- an insert for additional components is made available in a section of the cover, which are then supported by the amplifier layer or fixed to the amplifier layer.
- the amplifier layer then serves as a kind of support floor for the component glued thereto, which preferably forms on its upper side a possibly seamless continuous plane with the upper part of the cartridge.
- a further recess is provided in the amplifier layer, which is formed smaller than the recess in the lid.
- RFID chips or microchips that are not completely planar in their architecture protrude through this recess.
- a stamped window has the advantage that it is not unintentional of the Can replace the ink cartridge. Additionally or alternatively, the outlines of a window may be stamped for easier and more precise positioning of a glued smart card.
- printers have extensions that serve ink cartridges, as described for example in the above-mentioned US 5,666,146, to guide or adjust when installing in the printer. This function is sufficiently perceived by the guide arm in the ink cartridge of the present invention. Rather, the printer-side extensions lead due to additionally generated friction to a complicated installation and removal, or in the worst case lead to a wedging in the printer, which can be repaired only with increased maintenance. Therefore, it has proven to be advantageous to deliberately dispense with the leadership function of the printer-side extensions and record this minimal contact with existing printers in the receiving openings, preferably in the installed state, a minimum distance of 0.2 mm between the printer-side extensions and hers opposite inner surfaces of the receiving openings is provided.
- the guide means may additionally or alternatively to the guide arm comprise corresponding means cooperating with the printer-side extensions.
- the guide means consist exclusively of the guide arm, which preferably interacts with a rail extending in the direction of insertion as a counter-guide means in the printer, wherein the printer-side rail in its longitudinal extent is preferably at least as long as the cartridge.
- ink bags are usually used in which a silicone plug is provided for penetration through a printer-side puncture needle.
- This silicone plug is used to seal a used ink bag both in the eingochenen state and after pulling out the puncture needle.
- the plastic cartridges are, in particular as an injection molded part, designed so that they enclose the silicone plug with inserted ink bag so that it is held in position, and in particular when pulling out of the puncture needle is not pulled out.
- such a housing-side fit is only cumbersome to reach.
- retaining means for example in the form of a sealing plate, can be provided in a particularly advantageous manner on the ink bag, in particular on or in the ink outlet piece, which are designed and arranged such that they are removed from the printer when the ink cartridge is withdrawn a restraining force on the ink bag provided sealing means, in particular in the form of a silicone plug, can exercise.
- the retaining means preferably project over the sealing means in the direction of the printer-side piercing means and overhang the retaining means at right angles to the direction of withdrawal of the ink cartridge.
- the ink container is supported by a support plate.
- the support plate made of rigid material and thus provides the ink container stability. It is fixed to the ink container, preferably glued to it.
- the support plate is preferably substantially planar and extends in the longitudinal and width directions of the ink cartridge. Depending on the level of the ink container, the height of the support plate varies relative to the ground. By tapping the support plate height, a conclusion can be drawn on the ink level in the ink container.
- the ink container is preferably bonded to the bottom on the side opposite the support plate, as this ensures that the support plate moves towards the bottom during emptying and does not create a space between the ink container and the bottom (and the support plate remains stationary despite emptying) , Preferably, the support plate does not protrude beyond the ink container in its plane extension. As a result, a contact between the support plate and the inner wall of the outer housing is avoided, resulting in an unwanted tilting between them, and thus a false conclusion on the level, for May have consequences.
- US Pat. No. 6,053,606 it is generally emphasized that the support plate is supported by the outer walls in order to avoid damage to the ink container. This is deliberately avoided in order to obtain a simpler arrangement and, above all, to avoid friction between the support plate and the cartridge or even tilting of the support plate.
- a level indicator may be provided on the support plate, which is associated with a recess in the bottom of the ink cartridge.
- the level indicator serves as an extension of the support plate in the direction of the recess, which can be done for a tapping of the (relative) support plate height outside the ink cartridge.
- a pressure sensor can be arranged directly under the recess for the level indicator in the printer, which can detect by contact the relative level height or at least a binary (too) low level.
- the level indicator is inclined from the support plate and goes with no or minimal surface contact with the outer casing around the bag to the recess in the ground.
- this can also step off the support plate. He also goes in this alternative with no or minimal surface contact to the outer casing around the bag to the recess in the ground.
- an adapter In order to use the ink cartridge with a variety of printers, it has been found to be advantageous to use the ink cartridge with an adapter.
- Such an adapter has piercing means on one side, which allow it to penetrate into the ink container and discharge ink and feed it to the print head.
- it On the other hand, it has outlet means which, in turn, allow piercing means of a printer to penetrate and ink into them.
- the piercing means of the printer do not penetrate directly into the ink container, so must the Tintenauslasso réelle the ink container may not be adapted to the shape of the piercing means of the printer.
- the adapter is preferably fixed to the cartridge, and preferably has as described above receiving openings for printer-side extensions to allow easier installation and removal.
- the ink container is formed as an ink bag with flexible walls.
