Definitions
- the present invention relates to an array type ink cartridge, and more particularly, to an array type ink cartridge using a plurality of ink cartridge modules, which can be used by expanding the number of ink cartridge modules used according to the characteristics of a printing apparatus.
- Ink cartridges are replaceable parts used in printing devices, such as inkjet printers, to store ink that is ejected onto print media such as paper while printing. Ink cartridges are also called inkjet cartridges, and have various shapes and sizes depending on the printing apparatus used.
- Ink cartridges generally have one or more compartments of ink reservoirs, and some manufacturers add electronic contacts and chips to the ink cartridges to communicate with the printing device.
- Piezo method, heating method, bubble jet method and the like are used as the ejection method of the ink cartridge.
- the piezo method is a method of printing on the principle that the piezo element vibrates by the electrical signal to push the ink out of the nozzle.
- Piezo method has relatively large nozzle because it is possible to control the amount of ink by controlling the flow time of electric current, but it can generate ink droplets of various sizes, so if you need to express small size, Large drops can be painted all at once, which is an advantage for graphics output.
- it is relatively difficult to increase the number of nozzles because the nozzle is large, and the nozzle is clogged well.
- the heating method and the bubble jet method are similar to the method of generating bubbles using heat and injecting ink by the expansion force of the bubbles. However, in the heating method, a heater is disposed on the opposite side of the nozzle. The difference is that there is a heater underneath.
- the two methods are similar in overall characteristics and have a simple structure, which makes it easy to increase the number of nozzles, and the nozzles are less clogged because they are discharged with ink even if air bubbles enter.
- the delicate expression is also weak and has a disadvantage of slowing down when printing a large area.
- the ink cartridge is fixed without being reciprocated and only the printing medium is conveyed in one direction.
- the shape of the ink cartridge is fixed.
- an object of the present invention is to provide an array type ink cartridge that can extend a print width or implement various colors by using a plurality of ink cartridge modules, and can also arbitrarily expand the number of ink cartridge modules used.
- the array-type ink cartridge according to the present invention for achieving the above object is a plurality of ink cartridge modules each provided with a pair of heads are arranged staggered in the longitudinal direction to extend the print width, and the plurality of ink cartridge modules are And a fixing plate for fixing the plurality of ink cartridge modules and aligning the fixing positions such that the plurality of ink cartridge modules are arrayed in a length direction of the ink cartridge module or in a width direction of the ink cartridge module.
- the circuit board may further include a circuit board coupled to one side of the plurality of ink cartridge modules configured as the array and having a circuit for controlling the plurality of ink cartridge modules configured as the array.
- the fixing plate includes a coupling hole for penetrating a fastening member to fix the plurality of ink cartridges and aligning the fixing positions, and aligning the fixing positions of the plurality of ink cartridge modules, thereby increasing rigidity against warpage or distortion. To form a rib.
- various print widths and colors can be implemented according to the characteristics of the printing apparatus used by using the plurality of ink cartridge modules.
- the number of ink cartridge modules can be arbitrarily expanded according to the characteristics of the printing apparatus used, and can be expanded using the same ink cartridge module, so that the manufacturing process is different compared to producing different ink cartridges for each printing apparatus. Simplify and lower manufacturing costs.
