Abstract

PURPOSE:To enhance accuracy of dot position, reduce distortion in printed images and contrive reduction in white and black streaks, by setting the curvature of a recording paper support so that a recording surface of a recording paper is formed in a concave surface relatively to an ink jet. CONSTITUTION:The recording paper support 8 has a recording surface side shaped in a concave surface relatively to the ink jet 7. The radius of the support for a recording paper 10 in a conventional system and that for a recording paper 11 in the present system are assumed to be (r). The flight path of an ink droplet in a normal condition is assumed to be line O-A, and that in the case of variation in the pulsation of a pump, the jetting angle of the ink droplet or the like is assumed to be line O-A'. Let the variation in angle be theta, then the deviation of the dot position on the recording paper in the conventional system and that in the present system are DELTAX2 and DELTAX1, respectively. The ratio DELTAX2/DELTAX1 increases with theta. Accordingly, the distortion of printed images can be restricted to be small, and the system is effective also for coping with the problems of white and black streaks which might lower printing quality.

Figure 5 shows the positional relationship between the head and recording paper of a conventional charge-controlled inkjet recording device. In the figure, 1 is a nozzle, 2 is a charging electrode, 3 is a deflection electrode, and 4 is a deflection electrode. A gutter, 5 is a recording paper, 6 is an ink column, 7 is an ink droplet, and 8 is a recording paper holder.As is well known, the ink column 6 ejected from the nozzle 1 is cut to become an ink droplet 7. At this cutting timing, ink droplets used for printing are charged by the charging electrode, firstly deflected by the deflection electrode 3, and reach the recording paper 5.

Conventionally, in the above-mentioned inkjet recording apparatus, the recording surface is a convex surface facing the ink droplets, so when there is a change in the ink jet angle, the dot position on the recording paper is greatly affected. This will result in misalignment.

FIG. 1 is a diagram showing an inkjet recording apparatus according to the present invention. In the figure, the same numbers as in FIG. 5 indicate the same contents, but the recording paper holder 8 in FIG. The difference from the one shown in FIG. 5 is that the recording surface side is a concave surface. A comparison between the conventional example and the present invention due to the difference in recording surface will be explained with reference to FIG.

In FIG. 2, numeral 10 is a conventional recording paper as shown in FIG. 5, and numeral 11 is a recording paper of the present invention, and the radius of the recording paper holder is r. Assume now that the flight trajectory of the ink droplet under normal conditions is the line O-A, and the flight trajectory of the ink droplet when pump pulsation, fluctuations in the ink jet angle, etc. occur is O-A'. . Also, the fluctuation angle at that time is Δθ
Then, the deviation of the dot position on the recording paper is ΔX2. in the conventional method and the present invention, respectively. Given by ΔX1
In the model of Figure 2, - for example, r = 3.
ΔX2/ΔX1 and θ when Δθ=i,s”
The ratio between ΔX2 and ΔX1 is shown in FIG. 3. It can be seen from the figure that ΔX2/ΔX1 increases as θ increases. In other words, in the conventional system, the higher the deflection stage, the more slight changes in the ink jet direction, pump pulsation, etc. will cause the dot position to become more misaligned.On the other hand, in the present invention, the dot position deviation is more is small and always constant. Therefore, the present invention can suppress printing distortion to a small level, and is also effective against problems such as white streaks and black streaks that degrade print quality.
