3圖所示，墨水匣的前面部壁部2 3 4按壓針部保護板 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 1 3 0的話，會使針部保護板1 3 0待避。再使墨水匣進 入使其完全插入到墨水匣安裝部S內的話，墨水導出用的 中空針部8 2會穿刺到墨水供給孔2 6 0內的墨水供給用 橡膠栓2 6 2(第3 9圖（a))。然後，如第3 4圖及第3 5 圖所不，墨水匣的前面部壁部2 3 4會抵接在正壓附加構 件9 1的橡膠蓋9 3。墨水匣會抵抗正壓附加構件9 1的 彈簧9 4的力量而被暫時壓入到更進入的位置。此時，墨 水匣的前面部會碰到沒有圖示的擋壁部而阻止墨水匣的前 進較佳。然後，墨水匣，雖然會由於彈簧9 4的力量而稍 微彈回，而防脫落鎖定用凸部1 6 0會卡合在墨水匣下面 部的防脫落的鎖定凹部2 4 6內。結果，墨水匣會被鎖定 而防止其脫落。這樣子來讓墨水匣2 0 0被安裝在墨水匣 安裝部S。墨水匣2 0 0的前面部壁部2 3 4中的抵接於 橡膠蓋9 3的部分，如第3 5圖所示，是幾乎爲平坦狀的 ，所以可以讓橡膠蓋9 3的正壓附加孔9 8與大氣連通孔 2 8 0不會產生空氣洩漏的確實地連通在一起。 而黑色墨水匣，其寬度是比其他顏色的墨水匣更大， 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準（CNS ) A4規格（210X297公釐） ' -54 - 557252 A7 一 —___B7 五、發明説明（52) (請先閱讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 所以不會弄錯插入到彩色墨水匣安裝部S。另一方面，有 可能誤將其他顏色的墨水匣插入到黑色墨水匣用的安裝部 。可是，在彩色墨水匣中，導引用溝槽2 3 6與感應器收 容溝槽2 4 0的寬度方向的距離L b 1，是比黑色墨水匣 用的收容部的導引用突壁部1 2 0與墨水殘餘量檢測用的 光感應器170的寬度方向的距離Lb2更窄。因此，即 使讓其滑動而使導引用溝槽2 3 6與導引用突壁部1 2 0 卡合，墨水匣前面部會抵接在感應器護板176，而不能 再更進入。即使彩色墨水匣的寬度是作成可以插入到黑色 墨水匣用的收容部的導引用突壁部1 2 0與距離該突壁部 1 2 0較遠側的隔壁部1 1 0之間的大小，可是如果沒有 使導引用溝槽2 3 6與導引用突壁部1 2 0卡合的話，終 究不能使鎖定解除用的操作片1 5 0待避，所以不能使針 部保護板1 3 0待避，墨水匣前面部會抵接在針部保護板 1 3 0 ,就無法將墨水導出用的中空針部8 0插入到墨水 供給孔2 6 0。 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 當將墨水匣2 0 0安裝到墨水匣安裝部S時，墨水導 出用的中空針部8 2會將墨水收容部3 0 0內的墨水供給 到緩衝槽8 4。經由墨水供給用管T來將墨水從緩衝槽 8 4供給到壓電型噴墨頭7 〇，來供給到記錄動作。 平常列印時、等待時，雖然正壓空氣泵浦3 6是停止 的，而大氣壓力會通過該泵浦3 6、管子9 2、正壓附力口 構件9 1、大氣連通孔2 8 0而作用到墨水匣2 0 0內的 大氣室2 9 0。因此，隨著墨水減少，可撓性薄膜3 0 2 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準（CNS)A4規格（210x297公釐） 557252 A7 B7 五、發明説明（53) (請先閱讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 不會對墨水施加壓力而漸漸變形，會使預先形成的形狀大 致沿著收容凹部3 2 0而緊貼著，所以可以將供給到噴墨 頭7 0的墨水的壓力經常保持爲一定，可以穩定噴墨頭 7 0的墨水排出動作。而可撓性薄膜3 0 2最後會緊貼在 收容凹部3 2 0，所以可以減少墨水使用殘餘量。並且， 凹面部3 2 0的至少其中一部分，是距離其上側（開口部側） 越遠其剖面積越小的略球面狀部3 2 4，所以當墨水殘餘 量越來越少時，可撓性薄膜3 0 2會容易沿著凹面部 3 2 0，可以減少墨水的使用殘餘量，且直到供給到最後 都可將墨水的壓力大致保持爲一定。 這裡的安裝有墨水匣2 0 0的墨水匣安裝部S，是位 在壓電型噴墨頭7 0的垂直方向的下方的位置（參照第3圖） ，藉由其水位差，在壓電型噴墨頭70的噴嘴內的墨水， 會與一般的噴墨記錄裝置同樣的經常有負壓力加以作用， 而平常會藉由形成於噴嘴內的墨水的管內液面的表面張力 ，抵抗該負壓力，而把墨水保持在噴嘴內。在利用習知的 淸除裝置7 8進行過淸除動作，也就是以蓋子覆蓋噴嘴， 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 藉由泵浦的動作進行吸出噴嘴內的墨水的動作之後，停止 泵浦的吸引動作的話，在蓋子內起泡了的墨水，會由於上 述水位差，而會進入到噴嘴內，接著，當以噴墨頭70進 行列印時，有可能會產生排出不良。因此，在本實施型態 中，從淸除動作後（從動作中開始也可以）到開放蓋子期間， 會使正壓空氣泵浦3 6作動。藉此，可將正壓的空氣流供 給到墨水匣內的大氣室2 9 0，會經由可撓性薄膜3 0 2 本紙浪尺度適用中國國家標準（CNS ) A4規格（210X297公釐） -56- 557252 A7 B7 五、發明説明（54) (請先閲讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 將正壓附加到墨水。結果，就可以從墨水匣側來對噴墨頭 7 0的噴嘴內的墨水施加正壓，就可以防止將氣泡引進到 噴嘴內。而此時，以正壓泵浦3 6所施加的壓力，只要是 能不讓氣泡引入到噴嘴內的程度的壓力即可，不需要積極 將墨水從噴嘴推出的程度的大小，而在本實施型態中，用 這樣大的壓力也不會造成妨礙。 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 如前述，當將墨水匣200安裝到墨水匣安裝部S時 ，在墨水導出用的中空針部8 2插入到墨水供給孔2 6 0 內的墨水供給用橡膠栓2 6 2，大氣連通孔2 8 0會抵接 在正壓附加構件9 1。（更詳細來說，如第3 5圖所示，墨 水匣安裝部S的正壓附加構件9 1的橡膠蓋9 3前面部與 墨水導出用的中空針部8 2的針孔的距離A，是比墨水供 給用橡膠栓2 6 2從墨水匣2 0 0的前面部封住墨水供給 孔2 6 0的距離B更大。）當將墨水匣2 0 0從墨水匣安裝 部S抽出時，在大氣連通孔2 8 0從正壓附加構件9 1分 開之後，墨水導出用的中空針部8 2會從墨水供給孔 2 6 0內的橡膠栓抽出。於是，例如，在正壓泵浦3 6在 將正壓力施加於墨水匣2 0 0的期間，使用者誤將墨水匣 2 0 0從墨水匣安裝部S抽出，在中空針部8 2還穿刺著 的狀態，大氣連通孔2 8 0先會從正壓附加構件9 1脫落 ，可防止墨水從墨水匣2 0 0溢出。 當墨水匣200被安裝在墨水匣安裝部S時，如第 3 5圖所示，墨水殘餘量檢測用光感應器1 7 0的紅外線 發光部1 7 2與紅外線受光部1 7 4 ,會隔著收容了感應 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準（CNS ) A4規格（210X297公釐） -57- 557252 A 7 B7 五、發明説明（55) (請先閱讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 器柄3 6 0的感應臂部端部3 6 7 (感應點）的感應器柄收容 凸部3 7

內，用來感知感應器部分1 7 0的開關的柄部（黑色樹脂製 的感應器柄3 6 0 )是設置在墨水匣2 0 0內，藉由將墨水 匣2 0 0安裝在墨水匣安裝部S則完成。 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 感應器柄3 6 0，如前述，會因應墨水的殘餘量而使 感應臂部端部3 6 7 (感應點）上下動作。當墨水殘餘量還有 很多時，感應臂部端部3 6 7，會位在發光部1 7 2與受 光部1 7

構造作爲基本構造。也就是說，在主體盒體2 3 0的凹面 部3 2 0之間張設一片薄膜，將墨水積存在主體盒體 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準（CNS ) A4規格（21〇X；297公釐） -58- 557252 A7 B7 五、發明説明（56) (請先閲讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 2 3 0與薄膜之間。藉由將蓋子2 1 0對主體盒體2 3 0 進行安裝，使用者不會直接接觸到薄膜，而可避免弄破薄 膜。 更詳細來說，主體盒體2 3 0，是耐墨水性的樹脂製 的。在該例中，主體盒體2 3 0，是幾乎不含添加劑的無 添加型聚丙烯（P P )製的。由於主體盒體2 3 0 (收容凹部 3 1 0 )會直接接觸到墨水，所以如果含有添加劑的話，添 加劑有可能會溶進到墨水內。另一方面，針對蓋子2 1 0 ，不會直接接觸到墨水，所以是加有用來保持強度的添加 劑的聚丙烯（P P )製的。藉由用同一種樹脂材料（P P )來作 主體盒體2 3 0與蓋子2 1 0，則可藉由超音波熔接來將 兩者接合。 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 在本實施型態中，是將墨水收容部3 0 0規定在凹面 部3 2 0與可撓性薄膜3 0 2之間。不是使用收容墨水用 的模板，所以可以用完墨水。而由於不使用模板，而僅以 樹脂作成墨水匣2 0 0 ,所以使用完墨水之後，即使將墨 水匣2 0 0焚化也不會產生戴奧辛，可以減少廢棄物對環 境的影響。而與將墨水收容部3 0 0作成袋狀的情況不同 ，不需要袋狀所需要的耳部或噴嘴部，所以可以在小體積 的盒體主體內收容大量的墨水。而在本實施型態中，是以 作成收容凹部再貼上薄膜這樣簡單的構造來作成墨水收容 部3 0 0。藉由這種構造，也可以容易對應針對墨水容量 的設計變更。 在本實施型態中，可撓性薄膜3 0 2是作成雙層構造 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準（CNS ) A4規格（210X297公釐） -59- 557252 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 A7 B7五、發明説明（57) 。也就是說，是將聚丙烯（厚3 0 // m )製的內側層與尼龍製 的外側層黏接在一起所作成的。聚丙烯（厚3 0 // m )是具有 熱熔融特性，尼龍是具有耐熱特性與耐衝擊特性。聚丙烯（ 厚3 0 // m )，是幾乎不含有添加劑的無添加型。內側層會 接觸到墨水，所以如果含有添加劑的話，會有可能溶入到 墨水內。可是，聚丙烯（厚3 0 // m )對承受機械性的衝擊的 能力非常弱。因此，藉由尼龍的外側層來吸收衝擊。聚丙 烯（厚3 0 // m )製的內側層與尼龍製的外側層所構成的雙重 構造，是具有：加熱會延伸的特性、及空氣穿透性，如以 下的說明，是非常適合使用於本實施型態的可撓性薄膜 3 0 2 ° 在本實施型態中，是將上述雙重構造的可撓性薄膜 3 0 2 ,如以下所示，貼在收容凹部3 1 0，成形爲外側 膨脹的形狀。而可撓性薄膜3 0 2，是由：聚丙烯（厚3 0 # m )製的內側層3 0 2 a與尼龍製的外側層3 0 2 b所構 成。 首先，如第3 7圖（a )所示，在平坦的狀態將可撓性薄 膜3 0 2配置成覆蓋凹面部3 2 0的開口部。然後在開口 周緣部3 1 2加熱。結果，只有內側層3 0 2 a (聚丙烯層） 會融化而熱熔接在開口周緣部3 1 2。然後，如第3 7圖（ b)所示，會將沒有圖示的真空裝置連接到連通於凹面部 3 2 0的墨水供給孔2 6 0來將形成於可撓性薄膜3 0 2 與凹面部3 2 0之間的空間予以減壓。而由於會有大氣壓 力從外側施加在可撓性薄膜3 0 2 ,所以可撓性薄膜 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準( CNS ) A4規格（210X297公釐） (請先閲讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) -60- 557252 A7 B7 五、發明説明（58) (請先閱讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 3 0 2會緊貼在凹面部3 2 0。且在真空處理的同時，會 用設置在可撓性薄膜3 0 2的上側的沒有圖示的外部熱源 ，來對可撓性薄膜3 0 2全體加熱。結果，可撓性薄膜 3 0 2會沿著凹面部3 2 0的形狀而塑性變形。這樣來將 可撓性薄膜3 0 2緊貼凹面部3 2 0成形。結果，可撓性 薄膜3 0 2會成爲凹面部3 2 0底面部的形狀。將墨水注 入到凹面部3 2 0與可撓性薄膜3 2 0之間的話，可撓性 薄膜3 0 2會朝向遠離凹面部3 2 0的方向膨脹，可以收 容凹面部3 2 0的兩倍體積的墨水。隨著墨水的消耗，可 撓性薄膜3 0 2會漸漸靠近凹面部3 2 0，當墨水完全沒 有時，可撓性薄膜3 0 2會完全緊貼於凹面部3 2 0。因 此可完全使用完墨水。 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 雖然外側層3 0 2 b的尼龍是位在接近沒有圖示的外 部熱源的位置，可是由於尼龍有耐熱的特性，所以不會融 化。另一方面，由於內側層3 0 2 a的聚丙烯層是在距離 外部熱源較遠的位置，所以不會熱熔接，只會塑性變形。 於是，與僅只以聚丙烯單層來形成可撓性薄膜3 0 2的情 況不同，可撓性薄膜3 0 2不會由於外部熱源而融化。 而如果將可撓性薄膜3 0 2輥軋來壓製的話，可撓性 薄膜3 0 2可能會產生皺紋而導致墨水洩漏或漏氣的情形 。可是用上述方法的話，就不會有這種情形發生。 並且，在本實施型態中，凹面部3 2 4本身是作爲成 形模，是採用使可撓性薄膜3 0 2延伸來將凹面部3 2 4 的形狀轉印到可撓性薄膜3 0 2的方法。於是，凹面部 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準（CNS ) A4規格（210X297公釐） -61 - 557252 A7 B7 五、發明説明（59) (請先閱讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 3 2 4的形狀是任意的形狀，都可以容易地仿照它來成形 可撓性薄膜3 0 2。於是，可簡單地對應形狀變更。而藉 由在凹面部3 2 4形成多數的後述的墨水注入溝槽3 3 0 或墨水供給溝槽3 3 2、或形成皺折狀的凹凸部，就可以 防止在進行上述加熱動作時可撓性薄膜3 0 2貼到凹面部 3 2 4° 與作成複數的加壓來使其膨脹的可撓性薄膜3 0 2再 將其貼在開口周緣部3 1 2的方式不同，程序較少，且可 以減少髒東西進入到墨水收容部3 0 0內的可能性。並且 不需要另外的加壓用的模具，以簡單的設備即可完成。 而也可以將外側層3 0 2 b用不易融化的添加型聚丙 烯來代替尼龍來製造，以無添加的聚丙烯來製造內側層 3 0 2 a，藉由性質不同的兩種聚丙烯來製作外側層 3 0 2 b與內側層3 0 2 a也可以。 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 而如第38圖所示，也可以在凹面部320上，另外 設置作成具有與凹面部3 2 0對稱的形狀的收容凹部形狀 的模子4 0 0。在這種情況，在將可撓性薄膜3 0 2平坦 地對開口周緣部3 1 2進行熱熔接之後，經由墨水供給孔 2 6 0來將加壓空氣擠入到可撓性薄膜3 0 2與凹面部 3 2 0之間，且加熱模子4 0 0。然後，可撓性薄膜 3 0 2會膨脹，模子4 0 0的收容凹部形狀會被轉印到可 撓性薄膜3 0 2。而也可以代替將空氣擠入到可撓性薄膜 3 〇 2與凹面部3 2 0之間的內部空間來提高該內部空間 內的壓力的方式，而將可撓性薄膜3 0 2與模子4 0 0之 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準（CNS ) A4規格（210'〆297公釐Ί -62- 557252 A7 B7 五、發明説明（6〇) 間的空間予以減壓。 (請先閱讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 接下來，針對如上述的將墨水注入到成形爲膨脹形狀 的可撓性薄膜3 0 2與凹面部3 2 0之間（墨水收容部 3 0 0 )的方法，參照第3 9圖（a )、（ b )，在下面來加以說 明。 如第3 9圖（a )所示，在墨水供給孔2 6 0的內部，是 設置有：單向閥2 6 4與墨水供給用橡膠栓2 6 2 (矽膠軸 襯）。而在墨水注入孔2 7 0的內部，是設置有墨水注入用 橡膠栓2 7 2 (矽膠軸襯）。這裡的墨水注入用橡膠栓2 7 2 是以連結部分2 6 6而與墨水供給用橡膠栓2 6 2連接。 在墨水注入用橡膠栓2 7 2，是以互相偏置的狀態形成有 墨水注入用針部插入用凹部2 7 4與栓用突起部2 7 6。 各橡膠栓2 6 2、2 7 2，如後述是具有··讓針部穿刺， 且將針部拔出之後，會由於本身的彈性而封住穿刺過的痕 跡的性質。 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 首先，如第3 9圖（a )所示，將墨水供給用橡膠栓 2 6 2與墨水注入用橡膠栓2 7 2嵌合在墨水供給孔 2 6 0與墨水注入孔2 7 0。此時，墨水注入橡膠栓 272，會讓栓用突起部276與墨水注入連通路278 有一段距離的狀態而在中途部嵌合住。在主體盒體2 3 0 的前面部壁部234朝向垂直方向上方的姿勢，將抽氣用 中空針部5 0 2刺入到墨水供給用橡膠栓2 6 2，將墨水 注入用針部5 0 4刺入到墨水注入用橡膠栓2 7 2。此時 ,各針部5 0 2、5 0 4的針孔會露出於各橡膠栓的凹部 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準（CNS ) A4規格（210X297公釐） -63- 557252 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 A7 B7五、發明説明（61) 內。抽氣用中空針部5 0 2是連通到沒有圖示的抽氣用減 壓泵浦，墨水注入用針部5 0 4是連通到墨水泵浦。在沒 有使墨水泵浦作動的狀態下會經由墨水供給孔2 6 0來將 墨水收容部3 0 0內的空氣抽出讓內部成爲真空狀態。接 著，使墨水泵浦作動來將墨水注入到墨水注入孔2 7 0。 而由於墨水注入用針部插入用凹部2 7 4很細，所以殘留 於該部分的空氣無論怎麼減壓也無法抽出。並且，該空氣 混入到墨水收容部3 0 0內的話，膨脹後進行墨水的殘餘 量檢測會可能有誤，且對噴墨頭的墨水供給也有可能會有 誤失。因此，在注入完墨水之後，會將墨水注入用橡膠栓 2 7 2完全壓入到墨水注入孔2 7 0的內側。結果，會如 第3 9圖（b)所示，栓用突起部2 7 6會完全封住墨水注入 連通路2 7 8。於是，可以防止些許殘留於墨水注入用針 部插入用凹部2 7 4內的空氣進入到墨水收容部3 0 0內 〇 而如第1 5圖所示，在凹面部3 2 0，墨水注入溝槽 3 3 0是連通到墨水注入孔2 7 0 (墨水注入連通路2 7 8 ) 而適當地沿著凹面部3 2 4形成，是成爲讓墨水迂迴流入 的形狀。當注入墨水時，墨水會沿著墨水注入溝槽3 3 0 進入到凹面部3 2 0，所以能促進空氣的抽出。兼具抽氣 功能的墨水供給溝槽3 3 2是連通到墨水供給孔2 6 0 (墨 水供給連通路2 6 8 )適當地沿著凹面部3 2 4形成爲迴圈 狀且也與墨水注入溝槽3 3 0連通。當抽出空氣時，會容 易將空氣抽出。也就是說，在抽出空氣的期間，即使可撓 (請先閲讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準（CNS ) A4規格（210X297公釐） -64- 557252 A7 B7 五、發明説明（62) (請先閲讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 性薄膜3 0 2緊貼在凹面部3 2 4，而在兼具抽氣功能的 墨水供給溝槽3 3 2上也容易成爲抽氣用的空間，所以可 以將空氣從墨水收容部3 0 0全體抽出。而也可以代替在 凹面部形成兼具抽氣功能的墨水供給溝槽3 3 2的方式， 而在皺折狀的多數的凸部間形成凹部。而兼具抽氣功能的 墨水供給溝槽3 3 2或皺折部，都是在凹面部3 2 4的最 低位置也就是殘餘量檢測點3 6 5的周圍延伸，當將墨水 供給到噴墨頭時，即使墨水殘餘量很少，也容易將墨水從 最低位置導引出，且可減低凹面部3 2 4與可撓性薄膜 3 0 2的緊貼力而防止負壓的上升，能夠積極性地控制墨 水的流動。 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 在將墨水裝入到墨水收容部3 0 0之後，將蓋子 210安裝到主體盒體230，則完成了墨水匣200。 墨水匣200，接著進行真空袋包裝處理。也就是說，如 第3 6圖所示，將墨水匣2 0 0全體包在樹脂薄膜材料的 薄片5 0 0再抽成真空。壓電式噴墨頭7 0是以壓力波來 排出墨水，所以當墨水內有氣泡時，氣泡會吸收壓力，而 不能排出墨水。溶於墨水中的空氣會隨著時間的經過而成 長而形成氣泡，所以在本實施型態中，要限制墨水匣 2 0 0內所收容的墨水中所溶有的空氣的量，而進行真空 袋包裝處理。 注入到墨水收容部3 0 0的墨水，是已經經過某種程 度的脫氣處理。也就是說，其空氣的含有量相對於飽和量 是大約3 0〜3 5 %。而將墨水收容到墨水收容部3 0 0 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準（CNS ) A4規格（210X297公釐） -65- 557252 A7 B7 五、發明説明（63) (請先閱讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 內且將墨水匣2 0全體包在薄膜材料再抽成真空的話，墨 水內的空氣，會透過以聚丙烯與尼龍所形成的可撓性薄膜 3 0 2及以聚丙烯製的樹脂所作成的主體盒體的壁部，被 抽出到真空袋內。這樣一來，墨水匣內的墨水會再被脫氣 ，經過數日後，墨水匣內的墨水的空氣含量會降低到2 0 %。於是，藉由將經過真空袋處理的墨水匣提供給使用者 ，而可將脫氣度高的墨水供給給使用者。 而當將墨水匣2 0 0安裝到墨水匣安裝部S時，墨水 導出用的中空針部8 2會被插入到墨水供給孔2 6 0內的 墨水供給用橡膠栓2 6 2。墨水導出用的中空針部8 2 , 是經由緩衝槽8 4或墨水供給用管T而連通到壓電型噴墨 頭7 0。在這裡，溶於墨水的空氣會隨著時間經過而成長 而成爲氣泡而附著在緩衝槽8 4或墨水供給用管T的內壁 部，並且會由於溫度變化等原因而更加成長。墨水供給孔 2 6 0的單向閥2 6 4 ,是被設計成只要有些許來自於外 部的壓力就會關閉。於是，氣泡會在緩衝槽8 4或管T內 成長，只要有些許的壓力施加在單向閥2 6 4，單向閥 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作杜印製 2 6 4就會關閉。另一方面，對於壓電型噴墨頭7 0的吸 墨水的力量會讓單向閥264導通。因此，單向閥264 ，是可以不管供給多少墨水，而只要要產生氣泡的壓力的 話就會關閉，而可以防止氣泡進入到墨水匣的墨水收容部 3 0 0內。於是，就可以防止氣泡進入到墨水匣內，產生 氣泡從墨水匣進入到噴墨頭而導致排出不良這樣的問題。 在本實施型態中，是分別設置了墨水注入孔2 7 0與 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準（CNS ) A4規格（210Χ297公釐） -66 - 557252 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作杜印製 A7 B7 五、發明説明（64) 墨水供給孔2 6 0，是將其設置成在墨水匣的前面部並排 開口於左右方向。在墨水匣的前面部僅設置有一個孔部， 當從這個孔部進行墨水收容部3 0 0內的真空、墨水注入 、及墨水供給的所有的處理時，就必須將針部對安裝在該 孔部的橡膠栓進行三次穿刺。爲了將針部穿刺到互相不同 的三個位置，就必須增大孔部本身的直徑，也必須增加墨 水匣本身的厚度。相對的，藉由本實施型態，由於是將墨 水注入用與墨水供給用的孔部分別設置，就可以縮小各孔 部的直徑，且將這些孔部並排於左右方向，所以可以縮小 墨水匣的厚度。 而針對墨水供給用的孔部2 6 0，也可使用在墨水注 入用的減壓用，在墨水供給用橡膠栓2 6 2來將抽氣用中 空針部5 0 2進行穿刺的位置，最好是與當安裝在墨水匣 安裝部S時墨水導出用的中空針部8 2所穿刺的位置不同 。在本實施的型態中，如第2 0圖所示，墨水供給孔 2 6 0，在前面部壁部2 3 4中，是在寬度方向的略中央 處形成在其高度方向的略中央處。在前面部壁部2 3 4的 寬度方向的略中央處是形成有凸起部分2 3 5 ,所以其高 度（厚度）是比寬度方向的兩端更大。因此，可以加大墨水供 給孔2 6 0的直徑，也可以加大墨水供給用橡膠栓2 6 2 的直徑。就可以簡單地將抽氣用中空針部5 0 2穿刺到與 墨水導出用的中空針部8 2所穿刺的位置不同的位置。 在本實施型態中，是將墨水匣2 0 0進行真空袋處理 ，此時，壓力會施加在讓盒體主體與蓋子210互相接近 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準（CNS ) A4規格（210X297公釐） (請先閲讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) -67- 經濟部智慧財產局員工消費合作社印製 557252 A7 B7 五、發明説明（65) 的方向。因此，在本實施型態中，爲了抵抗這種壓力，是 將凹面部3 2 0與蓋子2 1 0的球面狀外側彎曲部2 1 2 作成略球面形狀，是採用肋部的補強構造。 在本實施型態中，如第4 0圖所示，是讓球面狀外側 彎曲部2 1 2周圍的墨水收容周緣部2 1 6位置在較主體 盒體側的開口周緣部3 1 2的內側邊稍微更外側的方式來 形成蓋子2 1 0的球面狀外側彎曲部2 1 2。也就是說， 墨水收容周緣部2 1 6的內周邊部2 1 6 a是與開口周緣 部3 1 2的內側邊及外側邊的中間部分相對向。如果邊部 2 1 6 a是在較開口周緣部3 1 2的內周的更內側的話， 當蓋子2 1 0與凹面部3 2 0受到朝向由於真空袋處理而 使其互相接近的方向的力量時，邊部2 1 6 a有可能會碰 到可撓性薄膜3 0 2而造成損傷。可是，在本實施型態中 ，蓋子2 1 0是碰到較開口周緣部3 1 2的內側邊部更稍 微外側的位置，也就是在開口周緣部3 1 2上碰到。可撓 性薄膜3 0 2是堅固地被熔接在開口周緣部3 1 2上而與 主體盒體2 3 0的樹脂一體化。於是，即使蓋子2 1 〇的 墨水收容周緣部2 1 6在開口周緣部3 1 2上直接碰到可 撓性薄膜3 0 2，也不會使可撓性薄膜3 0 2損傷。 本發明的記錄裝置及墨水匣並不限定於上述的實施型 態，可以在記載於申請專利範圍內作各種變化型態或改良 〇 例如，如第4 1圖所示，也可以將導引用溝槽2 3 6 或感應器收容溝槽2 4 0作成缺口到側壁部2 3 2的形狀 本紙張尺度適用中國國家標準（CNS ) A4規格（210X297公釐） '一 -68- (請先閱讀背面之注意事項再填寫本頁) 裝- 訂 557252 A7 B7 五、發明説明（66) " ^ 。使導引用缺口凹部2 3

It is then heated at the opening peripheral portion 3 1 2. result, Only the inner layer 3 0 2 a (polypropylene layer) is melted and thermally welded to the opening peripheral portion 3 1 2. then, As shown in Figure 37 (b), A vacuum device (not shown) is connected to the ink supply hole 2 6 0 communicating with the concave portion 3 2 0 to decompress the space formed between the flexible film 3 2 2 and the concave portion 3 2 0. And since there will be atmospheric pressure applied to the flexible film 3 2 from the outside, So the flexible film This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210X297 mm) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) -60- 557252 A7 B7 V. Description of the Invention (58) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling in this page) 3 0 2 will stick to the concave surface 3 2 0. And while vacuum processing, An external heat source (not shown) provided on the flexible film 3 02 is used, Here, the entire flexible film 3 02 is heated. result, The flexible film 3 0 2 is plastically deformed along the shape of the concave portion 3 2 0. In this way, the flexible film 3 2 is formed in close contact with the concave portion 3 2 0. result, The flexible film 3 0 2 has the shape of the bottom surface 3 2 0 of the concave portion. If the ink is injected between the concave portion 3 2 0 and the flexible film 3 2 0, The flexible film 3 0 2 will expand in a direction away from the concave surface 3 2 0, Can accommodate twice the volume of ink on the concave surface 3 2 0. As the ink is consumed, The flexible film 3 0 2 will gradually approach the concave surface 3 2 0, When the ink is completely gone Sometimes, The flexible film 3 0 2 will completely fit on the concave surface 3 2 0. Therefore, the ink can be used up completely. Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs. Although the outer layer of 3 0 2 b nylon is located close to an external heat source (not shown), But because nylon has heat resistance, So it doesn't melt. on the other hand, Since the inner layer 3 0 2 a of the polypropylene layer is far from the external heat source, So it will not be thermally welded, Only plastic deformation. then, Unlike the case where only a single layer of polypropylene is used to form the flexible film 3 02, The flexible film 3 02 does not melt due to an external heat source. And if the flexible film is rolled by 3,02, Flexible film 3 2 may cause wrinkles and cause ink leakage or air leakage. But using the above method, That would not happen. and, In this embodiment, The concave part 3 2 4 itself is used as a forming mold, This is a method of extending the flexible film 3 02 to transfer the shape of the concave portion 3 2 4 to the flexible film 3 02. then, Concave surface This paper size applies to Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (210X297 mm) -61-557252 A7 B7 V. Description of the Invention (59) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) 3 2 4 The shape is arbitrary, Both can be easily modeled to form flexible films 3 02. then, Can easily respond to shape changes. In addition, a large number of ink injection grooves 3 3 0 or ink supply grooves 3 3 2, which will be described later, are formed in the concave portion 3 2 4. Or forming wrinkled bumps, It is possible to prevent the flexible film 3 0 2 from sticking to the concave portion 3 2 4 ° during the above heating operation and the flexible film 3 0 2 which is made to swell by applying a plurality of pressures, and then apply the flexible film 3 0 2 to the opening peripheral portion. 3 1 2 is different, Less procedures, In addition, the possibility of dirt entering the ink containing section 300 can be reduced. And no additional pressurizing mold is needed, It can be done with simple equipment. Alternatively, the outer layer 3 2 2 b can be manufactured by using non-melting additive polypropylene instead of nylon. The inner layer 3 0 2 a is made of unadded polypropylene, The outer layer 3 0 2 b and the inner layer 3 2 2 a may be made of two kinds of polypropylene having different properties. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs, and as shown in Figure 38, It can also be on the concave surface 320, In addition, a mold 400 having a shape for accommodating a concave portion having a shape symmetrical to the concave portion 3 2 0 is provided. In this case, After thermally welding the flexible film 3 0 2 to the opening peripheral portion 3 1 2, Pressurized air is squeezed between the flexible film 3 0 2 and the concave surface 3 2 0 through the ink supply hole 2 6 0, And heating the mold 4 0 0. then, The flexible film 3 0 2 will expand, The shape of the accommodating recess of the mold 400 is transferred to the flexible film 302. Instead of squeezing air into the internal space between the flexible film 3 2 and the concave portion 3 2 0, the pressure in the internal space can be increased. The paper size of the flexible film 3 2 2 and the mold 4 0 0 applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210'〆297 mmΊ -62- 557252 A7 B7 V. DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The space between (60) is decompressed. (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) Next, With regard to the method for injecting ink between the flexible film 3 2 2 and the concave portion 3 2 0 (the ink receiving portion 3 0 0) formed as described above, Refer to Figure 39 (a), (B), This is explained below. As shown in Figure 39 (a), Inside the ink supply hole 260, The settings are: Non-return valve 2 6 4 and ink supply rubber stopper 2 6 2 (silicone bushing). And inside the ink injection hole 270, It is provided with a rubber stopper 2 7 2 (silicone bushing) for ink injection. Here, the rubber stopper 2 7 2 for ink injection is connected to the rubber stopper 2 6 2 for ink supply by the connection portion 2 6 6. Rubber stopper for ink injection 2 7 2 ， The ink injection needle insertion recesses 2 7 4 and the plug projections 2 7 6 are formed in a mutually offset state. Each rubber stopper 2 6 2, 2 7 2, As mentioned later, there is ... After pulling out the needle, The nature of the puncture marks will be sealed due to its elasticity. Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs As shown in Figure 39 (a), The rubber stopper 2 6 2 for ink supply and the rubber stopper 2 7 2 for ink injection are fitted into the ink supply hole 2 60 and the ink injection hole 2 70. at this time, Ink injection rubber stopper 272, The stopper protrusion 276 and the ink injection communication path 278 are placed at a distance from each other, and the stopper protrusion 276 is fitted in the middle portion. In a posture in which the front wall portion 234 of the main body case 2 3 0 faces upward in the vertical direction, Insert the hollow needle part 5 2 for suction into the rubber stopper 2 6 2 for ink supply, The ink injection needle portion 504 is inserted into the ink injection rubber stopper 2 7 2. at this time , Each needle part 5 0 2, The pinholes of 5 0 4 will be exposed in the recesses of the rubber bolts. The paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (210X297 mm) -63- 557252 printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Invention Description (61). The hollow needle part 502 for suction is connected to a pressure relief pump for suction (not shown), The ink injection needle portion 504 is connected to the ink pump. When the ink pump is not actuated, the air in the ink containing portion 300 is drawn out through the ink supply hole 260 to make the inside a vacuum state. Then, The ink pump is operated to inject ink into the ink injection hole 270. In addition, since the ink insertion needle insertion recess 2 7 4 is thin, Therefore, the air remaining in this part cannot be extracted no matter how decompressed. and, If the air is mixed into the ink containing section 300, The residual ink detection after expansion may be wrong, In addition, the ink supply to the inkjet head may be mistaken. therefore, After filling the ink, Press the rubber stopper 2 7 2 for ink injection completely inside the ink injection hole 270. result, As shown in Figure 39 (b), The plug projection 2 7 6 completely seals the ink injection communication path 2 7 8. then, It is possible to prevent the air remaining in the ink injection needle insertion recess 274 from entering the ink storage section 300. As shown in FIG. 15, 3 2 0 on the concave surface, The ink injection groove 3 3 0 is formed to communicate with the ink injection hole 2 7 0 (ink injection communication path 2 7 8) and is appropriately formed along the concave surface portion 3 2 4. It is a shape that allows ink to flow in. When the ink is injected, The ink will enter the concave surface 3 2 0 along the ink injection groove 3 3 0, Therefore, the extraction of air can be promoted. The ink supply groove 3 3 2 having a suction function is connected to the ink supply hole 2 6 0 (the ink supply communication path 2 6 8) is formed in a loop shape along the concave portion 3 2 4 and is also injected with the ink.
