TW446643B - Fluid supply device - Google Patents

Abstract

The present invention relates to a fluid supply device mainly designed for general printers, plotters, and wide format ink jet printers. The fluid supply device consists of a container, a delivery device, and a guiding device. The container has a longitudinal opening and contains several longitudinal ink chambers. Each longitudinal ink chamber contains various basic color inks. Consisting of several interconnected inlet portions and discharge portions, the delivery device, in accordance with the design, delivers each basic color ink in the container to a printhead cartridge equipped with a nozzle. Each inlet portion moves along the longitudinal direction of the opening while immersing in an ink chamber. Each discharge portion is connected to a printhead cartridge. The guiding device guides the inlet portions to move along the opening. Thus, while inlet portions are moving along the container's longitudinal opening back and forth, by means of the absorption of the delivery device, inks can continuously be delivered to the printhead cartridge for wide format ink jet printers and plotters to provide durable printing effects.
