直進してガター５により回収され、再使用に供される。Conventional Drum Wheel FIG. 1 is a main part configuration diagram for explaining an example of an inkjet recording device having an ink mist absorption device. In the figure, 1 is an inkjet head, 2 is a charging electrode, 3 is a deflection electrode, and 4 is a deflection electrode. An ink mist absorption plate, 5 is a gutter, 6 is a recording paper, 7 is a platen, and 8 is an ink droplet.As is well known, the ink droplets ejected from the inkjet head 1 are sent to the charging electrode 2 according to the printing information signal. It is charged, deflected by the deflection electrode 3, and recorded on the recording paper 6. On the other hand, ink droplets that are not used for printing travel straight without being charged or deflected and are collected by the gutter 5 for reuse.

。The ink mist absorbing plate 4 is intended to absorb ink mist generated when ink droplets collide with the recording paper 6, but if this ink mist absorbing plate does not function sufficiently, ink mist may enter between the deflection electrodes. In particular, in inkjet recording devices in which a gutter detects the amount of charge for phase search, it is easy to detect discharge noise caused by the deflection electric field, causing problems such as charging phase errors. there were. Furthermore, in the case of a so-called multi-nozzle inkjet recording device that uses a large number of inkjet heads, the amount of ink mist is larger than in the case of a single head, and it is difficult to remove the ink mist sufficiently by simply providing an ink mist absorbing material. could not be removed.

てなされたものである。Purpose The present invention has been made in view of the two actual circumstances. In particular, the ink mist absorbing plate as described above is improved to effectively remove ink mist, thereby reducing the amount of ink mist caused by ink mist. This was done with the aim of solving problems such as discharge between deflection electrodes and noise when performing phase search using a gutter.

In the figure, numeral 9 indicates a vacuum pump, numeral 10 indicates an ink collection container, and other components similar to those in FIG. The operative parts are provided with the same reference numerals as in FIG. Then.

落ちるようなこともなくなる。In the present invention, the ink mist absorbing plate 4 is made of, for example, porous sintered metal, has a hollow 4a in the middle, and has an open opening at the top connected to a vacuum pump 9 via a tube. Therefore, according to the present invention, the ink mist generated around the ink mist absorbing plate 4 is pulled by the negative pressure inside the ink mist absorbing plate 4, and the ink mist is absorbed through the porous pores of the ink mist absorbing plate. It is effectively collected by being sucked into the hollow part of the plate. In particular, in multi-nozzles, ink mist is generated several times or even tens of times as much as in a single nozzle, and it cannot be absorbed sufficiently by simply arranging an ink mist absorption plate as in the conventional example.
In the present invention, even such a large amount of ink error 1 can be quickly and effectively sucked and collected.
Therefore, ink stains on the deflection electrodes, discharge between the deflection electrodes, phase search noise due to the gutter, etc. can be effectively prevented. Further, since the ink mist is sucked and collected by applying negative pressure, the ink mist absorption plate becomes saturated with ink, and ink droplets do not fall from the mist absorption plate onto the gutter.

うにしたものである。FIG. 3 is a configuration diagram of main parts showing another embodiment of the present invention. In this embodiment, as shown in the figure, the wall thickness of the ink mist absorbing plate on the recording paper side is made thinner, and the wall thickness on the recording paper side is made thinner. - By reducing the air resistance generated on the recording paper side,
This system is designed to more effectively suck and collect scattered ink mist.

In the case of phase search using a gutter, accurate phase search can be performed without the influence of noise. Further, there are advantages such as being able to provide an inkjet recording device free from printing distortion caused by deflection electrodes.
