る。[Detailed Description of the Invention] Conventionally, in a facsimile device, an original image to be reproduced is scanned by a photoelectric conversion element, extracted as an image reproduction signal, and then transmitted and similarly scanned by a recording device. Efforts are being made to reproduce the original painting.
Photoelectric conversion elements include phototubes, photomultipliers, photodiodes, CCDs, BBDs, etc., and recording devices include electrostatic recording devices, thermal recording devices, inkjet recording devices, and various other forming devices. . Here, the above-mentioned recording devices, so-called image reproduction devices, include those that require transfer to recording paper and those that do not, but in consideration of the shooting speed and miniaturization of the device, transfer is not required. Image reproduction devices are often used. A non-impact type device that uses ink is known as a device that directly reproduces images on recording paper, especially plain paper, without the need for this transfer. The recording electrodes are submerged in the ink with their heads exposed, and an image reproduction signal is applied to each electrode to selectively generate an electric field between it and a counter electrode placed opposite it. This device performs recording by mounding up ink on the head of the recording electrode and selectively depositing the ink on plain paper inserted between the recording electrode and the counter electrode.

う問題点もあつた。 However, in the above-mentioned image reproducing apparatus, due to vibrations, shocks, etc. during reproduction, ink may protrude even from recording electrodes that do not receive image reproduction signals.
Coupled with the narrow distance between the recording electrode and the plain paper of 20 to 50 μm, there was a problem in that the surface of the plain paper was stained. Another problem was that if the device was tilted a little, ink would inadvertently adhere to the recording paper and stain it.

The surface size, shape and spacing of each ink supply port are as follows:
This is almost the same as that of each photoelectric conversion element 9. Each recording electrode is connected to its corresponding photoelectric conversion element. In this way, the recording electrode is manufactured by forming holes in the insulating plate 10 using photoresist or photoetching, placing a screen of the same shape on top of the hole by aligning the holes, and applying vacuum evaporation or sputtering over the hole.

Certain inks with reactive coloring properties can also be used. As a solvent, benzene, toluene,

In the case of a structure in which the ink is stored independently, it is desirable to use conductive ink so that there is no need to apply a high voltage to the recording electrode 13 and the counter electrode 6. Note that, as the conductive ink, for example, one in which a colored material and a fixing agent are dispersed or dissolved in water is used.

７上に再現される。 First, with reference to FIG. 4, the image reproduction method applied to the present invention will be explained as a model. Components similar to those shown in FIG. 1 are given the same reference numerals. There are four image parts 1 in the negative original picture 1.
a, 1b, 1c, and 1d are formed. When this is imaged onto the photoelectric conversion element array 4 by the exposure lamp 2 and the imaging lens 3, among the photoelectric conversion elements, the photoelectric conversion elements 9a, Photocurrents flow through the recording electrodes 9b, 9c, and 9d, which flow to the recording electrodes 13a, 13b, 13c, and 13d corresponding to the respective photoelectric conversion elements. For example, the recording electrode 13 is connected to the positive side of the photoelectric conversion element 9, and the counter electrode 6 is connected to the negative side.
are connected, the recording electrodes 13a, 13b, 13c, 13d through which current flows and the counter electrode 6
An electric field is generated from each recording electrode toward the counter electrode, and the ink 15 in contact with each recording electrode and injected with a positive charge flows from the top of each ink supply port along the direction of the electric field. It sticks out and sticks to the recording paper 7 interposed between it and the recording electrode. In this way, the image portion of the original image 1 is reproduced on the recording paper 7.

The thickness is preferably about 20 to 50 μm. The recording paper 7 is not limited to paper as long as it is a dielectric material.

A resin layer, such as Teflon (trade name) or silicone, with a thickness of 20 μm or less and a dynes/cm or less is provided. Such a substance has poor wettability with ink under normal conditions, but has the property of becoming wet with ink when a voltage is applied to it. Therefore, by providing such a substance in the ink supply port, the level of ink in the ink supply port is normally lowered, and the ink is ejected from there only when a voltage is applied, thereby selectively transferring the ink to the recording paper. Adhesion can be carried out effectively. Further, it becomes even more effective if the ink supply port is made wide at the end.

果的にインクが付着する。 That is, when the recording electrode receives an image signal corresponding to the original image to be reproduced, an electric field is generated between the opposing electrode and the recording electrode, causing ink to adhere to the recording paper interposed between the recording electrode and the recording electrode. At the same time as an electric field is generated, the wettability of the resin layer formed on the recording electrode improves, and due to the effects of both the electric field and the improved wettability, ink flows from the ink supply port of the recording electrode. The ink sticks out and effectively adheres to the recording paper.

当該記録電極に対応する記録紙表面は汚れない。 On the other hand, at the ink supply port of the recording electrode where current is not flowing, the ink level is located within the ink supply port due to poor wettability of the resin layer, and vibrations and shocks during image reproduction cause the ink level to rise from the ink supply port. Ink does not easily protrude. Therefore, the surface of the recording paper corresponding to the recording electrode is not soiled.

られることになる。 As described above, according to the present invention, the ink protrusion effect is enhanced for the recording electrodes that receive the image signal, while the ink of the recording electrodes that do not receive the same signal remains in the ink supply port, so that the ink supply is improved. Even if the opening and the recording paper come close to each other, the recording paper is not stained by ink, so a high quality image can be obtained.

い。 Further, as described above, only the minute ink supply port 12 for protruding ink is open from the container 14, and a conductive member having poor wettability with ink is provided on the outer periphery of the ink supply port 12. Even if the container 14 is slightly tilted due to
The ink 15 will not inadvertently adhere to the recording paper.

Furthermore, even if the apparatus is tilted to some extent, ink will not inadvertently adhere to the recording paper, thereby further increasing the reliability of the apparatus.

置。[Scope of Claims] 1. A container filled with ink for adhering to recording paper, and an ink supply port forming plate provided on the top of the container and having a plurality of openings forming ink supply ports. , recording electrodes formed on the entire inner surface of the opening using a conductive member and insulated from each other; and recording electrodes formed on the inner wall surface of the recording electrode, which exhibit wettability to the ink when a voltage is applied according to an image signal. a recording electrode unit having a resin layer having a thickness of 20 μm or less and having poor wettability with respect to the ink when no voltage is applied; and a counter electrode disposed opposite to the recording electrode unit; When the recording electrode receives an image signal corresponding to the original image to be displayed, an electric field is generated between the opposing electrode and the recording electrode, and the ink is applied to the recording paper interposed between the recording electrode and the recording electrode. An image characterized in that an electric field for adhesion is generated and, at the same time, the wettability of the resin layer formed on the recording electrode is improved so that the ink protrudes from the ink supply port to be used for recording. playback device.
