实施例一:
如图1至图3所示,喷墨打印机上具有保持部200,保持部200用于容纳墨水容器,可承载多个或者一个墨水容器300。墨水容器300可拆卸的安装到保持部200上,当墨水容器300使用完毕后,需要更换新的墨水容器。墨水容器300包括芯片100、把手330、出墨口311、盒体310;保持部200具有触针架201、供墨部202、固定部204及开口205;盒体310内存储有墨水,墨水经出墨口311到达供墨部202处,进而供墨部202可以将墨水供给到打印头处,从而墨水可以用于执行打印的动作。芯片100可以与触针架201上的触针相电连接,用于电信号之间的相互传输。把手330用于将墨水容器300固定到保持部200上,把手330与固定部204相配合防止墨水容器300从保持部200中脱离出来。
如图2所示,设定保持部的三维直角坐标系,即XYZ轴坐标系,以墨水容器300安装到保持部200的方向为-Z轴方向,则墨水容器300从保持部脱离的方向为+Z轴方向,开口205位于+Z轴方向上,底壁200a位于-Z轴方向上。一般情况下,喷墨打印机平放在办公桌面或者打印桌面上,保持部200的开口205位于重力方向的上方,底壁200a位于重力方向的下方,由此方便了使用者安装或者拆卸墨水容器300。
进一步的,保持部200可以承载多个或者一个墨水容器300,具有多个或者一个安装位203,4个墨水容器内可以存储4种不同颜色的墨水,例如黑色、黄色、蓝色、红色。如图3所示,保持部200可以承载4个墨水容器300,具有4个安装位203;保持部200是一个近似长方形或者正方形的具有开口205的部件,保持部200的内侧壁及底壁200a构成了安装位203。触针架201安装在保持部200的第一侧壁200c上,安装位203在Y轴方向上依次排列,4个安装位203在Y轴方向上依次排列。同时垂直于Y轴和Z轴的方向为X轴方向,其中,从安装位203指向触针架201的方向为+X轴方向。+X轴垂直于第一侧壁200c;沿+X轴方向观察,在YZ平面上+Z轴在上方时,+Y轴方向位于左手侧。另外,本实施例设置的墨水容器300的三维直角坐标系与保持部200的三维直角坐标系一致。
如图4所示,触针架201具有:基座210、安装在基座210上的多个触针,分别为第一触针211-第九触针219。触针为薄片状的金属片,可以 起到导电作用,且不易磨损。基座210具有多个狭缝,分别为第一夹缝221至第九夹缝229;多个狭缝221-229与多个触针211-219一一对应,多个狭缝221-229均呈U字形,其具有+Z轴方向的狭缝口,多个触针211-219沿-Z轴方向通过狭缝口安装到多个狭缝221-229中。例如,第一触针211沿-Z轴方向通过狭缝口安装到第一狭缝221中;第二触针212-第九触针219的安装方式与之相同,在此不重复阐述。
第一触针211-第九触针219中的每一个触针的一侧通过保持部200内部的电路连接到喷墨打印机的主电路上;另一侧与芯片100电性连接。其中,第一触针211-第九触针219的结构一致,均如图4所示。以第一触针211为例对每个触针的结构进行介绍:第一触针211分为第一部分211a、第二部分211b、第三部分211c。第一部分211a或者第三部分211c用于与芯片100相接触;第二部分211b用于与喷墨打印机内部电路相连接,例如:其通过保持部芯片100与喷墨打印机内的主电路相连接。第三部分211c与第一部分211a、第二部211b相连接。
参阅图2并结合图6,基板10上具有至少一个基板端子30,可在基板10上布置有7个基板端子31-37。其中,触针第一部分211a与第一基板端子201相接触,形成有接触区域;第二部分211b与喷墨打印机内的电路相连接。第三部分211c连接第一部分211a和第二部分211b。第三部分位于第一触针211的+Z轴方向,第一触针211通过第三部分211c或者是第三部分211c的一部分(例如是第三部分211c的水平部分211f)固定在第一狭缝221中。第一部分211a、第二部分211b设置在第一触针211的-Z轴方向的末端,使得,第一部分211a、第二部分211b可以弹性变形且变形后易恢复至原状。第一触针211第一部分211a设置在-X轴方向,第二部分211b设置在+X轴方向。第一部分211a、第二部分211b突出于基座210,第三部分211c非突出于基座210。

待需要将导电片20连接至基板10上时,当选用的导电片20,其定位安装部23和电芯连接部22可位于本体21的第一表面20e,此时导电片20从基板10的背表面10b安装,定位安装部23插入位于基板10上的定位孔11内,且本体21贴合在基板10的背表面10b上,电芯连接部22凸出基板10的正表面10a。当选用的导电片20,其定位安装部23位于本体21的第一表面20e、电芯连接部22位于本体21的第二表面20g上;此时,导电片20的定位安装部23从基板10的正表面10a安装,并插入基板10的定位孔11内,使本体21与基板10的正表面10a平行,甚至贴合,电芯连接部22凸出基板10的正表面10a。

进一步的,导电片20可单独采用定位安装部23插接在定位孔11内,也可单独利用本体21焊接或者粘接在基板10上;或者,导电片20在利用定位安装部23插接在基板10上后,再将本体21与基板10进行焊接,可增强导电片20与基板10的连接强度;优选的将导电片20利用定位安装部23插接在定位孔11内;对于本实施例中,导电片20通过定位安装部23插接在定位孔11内,由于基板10上设置有多个导电片20,且多个导电片20可阵列分布在基板10上,以基板10上设置有两个导电片20为例,两个导电片20分别为第一导电片20a和第二导电片20b,基于第一导电片20a和第二导电片20b对基板10上的设置的定位孔11进行说明。
例如,本实施例中芯片100基板上设置有两个左右对称的第一导电片20a和第二导电片20b,其中,第一导电片20a布置在第二导电片20b的-Y侧,以第一导电片20a为例,对导电片的结构进行详细介绍。
本实施提供的第一导电片20a具有:与第八触针218相接触的电芯连接部22、固定在基板10上的定位安装部23、连接电芯连接部22和定位安装部23的本体21。定位安装部23与定位孔11相配合,用于定位第一导电片20a。第一导电片20a具有与第八触针218的第一垂直部分218d相接触的导电片接触区域22a,导电片接触区域22a位于第一导电片20a的 电芯连接部22的+X轴端,进一步的,导电片接触区域22a位于第一导电片20a的+X轴端。电芯连接部22与本体21相垂直,定位安装部23与本体21相垂直;本体21设置在基板端子201-207所在的正表面10a上且与之平行。第一导电片20a包括:第一表面20e、第二表面20g、第三表面20c、第四表面20d、第五表面20f。第一表面20e与第二表面20g相平行且相背设置,两者与正表面10a平行。第三表面20c与第四表面20d相平行且相背设置。第三表面20c与第四表面20d分别位于第一导电片20a的-Y轴侧及+Y轴侧。第一表面20e、第二表面20g也是本体21的两个表面。第三表面20c、第五表面20f是电芯连接部22的两个表面,两者相平行且相背设置。第三表面20c与第五表面20f分别位于电芯连接部22的-Y轴侧及+Y轴侧。
电芯连接部22与本体21相垂直,定位安装部23与本体21相垂直,此结构使得芯片减小了零部件数量,结构简单,生产效率高。同时增大了导电片与基板的接触面积,增大了导电片与基板定位的位置,使得定位安装部的设计变得简单,易于操作,进而使得导电片与基板10的装配变得容易。再者,防止因焊接、粘贴等工艺对电芯连接部产生影响导致其变形。
电芯连接部22变形会导致无法准确的与第八触针218相接触。本体21设置在基板端子所在的正表面10a上且与之平行,使得再生产过程中,只需要在基板10的正面10a即可完成导电片的安装、定位、焊接的工作,不需要转到基板10的背表面10b进行,便于生产,提高生产效率。定位安装部23是4个从本体21上突出的凸起,4个凸起垂直于基板的正表面10a;使用定位孔11与定位安装部23相配合,4个凸起插入到定位孔11中,使得导电片的安装更加简单方便。
如图15所示,当墨水容器300安装到保持部200上的时候,第一导电片20a与第八触针218的第一垂直部分218d,因为第一导电片20a是金属材质,且焊接在基板10上,不具有弹性。墨水容器300安装到保持部200上的时候,第一导电片20a会压迫第八触针218的第一垂直部分218d,使得第一垂直部分218d会向+X轴方向移动,进而第一导电片20a的接触区域22a会进入到第八狭缝228中,第一导电片20a的+X轴侧插入到第八狭缝288中,第三表面20c、第五表面20f的一部分也会插入到第八狭 缝228中,使得对芯片起到定位作用,增加了芯片与触针接触的准确性。第二导电片20b与第一导电片20a具有相同的接触形式、功能,这里将不再提供其详细阐述。
进一步的,基板10上设置有多个定位孔11,多个定位孔11分成呈行分布且平行的多个定位孔组,且相邻定位孔组间的行间距根据导电片的定位安装部进行调整。相邻孔组间的定位孔可相对设置,或者交错设置。例如,本实施中基板10上设置有左右对称的第一导电片20a和第二导电片20b,其中,每个导电片均包括四个定位安装部23,相应的,基板10上需设置有四个定位孔11用于安装一导电片20。
因此,基板10上设置有两行定位孔组,其包括第一定位孔组和第二定位孔组,第一定位孔组和第二孔组呈行间隔设置在基板10上,第一定位孔组包括位于同一行的四个第一定位孔11a,第二定位孔组包括位于同一行的四个第二定位孔11b,且第一定位孔组排布在第二定位孔组的上方;第一定位孔11a与第二定位孔11b可相对设置,或者交错设置;相应的,位于导电片20两侧的定位安装部23可相对设置或者交错设置。
在上述实施例的基础上,定位安装部23远离本体21的一端设置有折弯部;折弯部与定位安装部23相连接,且折弯部卡接在基板10上,且位于基板10背离本体21的一表面上。具体的,定位安装部23的一端连接在本体21上,另一端插入基板10的定位部11内且凸出基板10的表面(背表面10b或者正表面10a)。参阅图11和图12,本实施例以导电片20安装在基板10的正表面10a为例进行说明:定位安装部23从基板10的正表面10a插接在定位部11内,定位安装部23远离本体21的一端凸出基板10的背表面10b并进行折弯以形成折弯部,折弯部可贴合在基板10的背表面10b上,防止定位安装部23从插接孔内脱落。同样的,定位安装部23从基板10的背表面10b插接在定位部11内,定位安装部23远离本体21的一端凸出基板10的正表面10a并进行折弯以形成折弯部,折弯部可贴合在基板10的正表面10a上,防止定位安装部23从插接孔内脱落;如图13和图14所示。
导电片的个数可以是一个或者多个,当导电片的数量是偶数个时,导电片沿中心线L1对称分布在芯片基板10上。
导电片的第二部分与芯片基板10的孔的个数可以是一个或者多个,均可以达到定位的目的。
进一步的,为了增加生产过程中的效率和可操作度,第一导电片20a、第二导电片20b在生产过程中可以是设置在同一个金属片上的两部分,将上述金属片定位且焊接到芯片基板10上后,采用冲头将金属片冲断成第一导电片20a、第二导电片20b。此生产方式,增加了生产者的可操作度,优化了生产流程,增加了生产效率。
图15是实施例一的触针架201与芯片100相配合的示意图。图15是墨水容器300安装到保持部200上的时候,芯片100与触针架201的示意图。第一导电片20a与第八触针218的第一垂直部分218d相接触,因为第一导电片20a是金属材质,且焊接在芯片基板10上,不具有弹性。墨水容器300安装到保持部200上的时候,第一导电片20a会压迫第八触针218的第一垂直部分218d,使得第一垂直部分218k会向+X轴方向移动,进而第一导电片20a的接触区域2082会进入到第八夹缝228中,第一导电片20a的+X轴侧插入到第八夹缝228中,第三表面20c、第五表面20f的一部分也会插入到第八夹缝228中,使得对芯片100起到定位作用,增加了芯片100与触针接触的准确性。第二导电片20b与第一导电片20a具有相同的接触形式、功能,这里将不再提供其详细阐述。
如图6、图15所示,芯片100具有:一组第一限位槽12、一组第二限位槽13以及一组第三限位槽14。优选的,一组第一限位槽12、一组第二限位槽13以及一组第三限位槽14是贯穿芯片基板10厚度方向(即X轴方向)的通槽。第三限位槽14设置在芯片100的-Y轴、-Z轴侧和+Y轴、-Z轴侧。第三限位槽14具有+Y轴侧的第一限位槽表面14a。当墨水容器300安装到保持部200上时,第八触针218的第一部分218a位于芯片100的第一限位槽14处,第三限位槽表面14a会对第八触针218、第九触针219起到一个定位的作用,增加了芯片100与触针接触的准确性。第二限位槽13设置在芯片100的-Y轴侧和+Y轴侧。第一限位槽12设置在芯片100的-Y轴、+Z轴侧和+Y轴、+Z轴侧。
另一方面,喷墨打印机内部对第八触针218、第九触针219施加是高压(例如42V的方波),用于检测墨水容器300的墨水容量或者检测检测 墨水容器300是否安装到保持部200上。晶圆40的动作电压较低,故喷墨打印机对第一触针211-第七触针217及晶圆40施加的是低压(2.7V-3.3V)。对第一限位槽12、第二限位槽13的位置设置,特别是当墨水容器300安装到保持部200上时,第八触针218、第九触针219位于第三限位槽14内,第三限位槽表面14a对第八触针218、第九触针219有阻挡、隔绝作用,防止了第八触针218、第九触针219接触到基板端子上的可能性,增加了芯片100的安全性,避免了损坏芯片100、喷墨打印机内的电路。
芯片100可以通过第二限位槽13或者第一限位槽12与墨水容器300上相对应设置的凸起相配合的方式来固定在墨水容器300上,也可以通过粘贴的方式来固定在墨水容器300上。
参阅图7和图8,在另一实施例中,第一导电片20a和第二导电片20b通过第一定位孔11a和第二定位孔11b与芯片100基板10相定位,导电片通过焊接的方式将其焊接在芯片100基板10上。具体的,基板10上设置有左端子38a、右端子38b、左后端子39a、右后端子39b、晶元40、电子元器件。左端子38a与第一导电片20a相对应,右端子38b与第二导电片20b相对应。在生产过程中,首先在左端子38a上点加热后的锡(用于焊接),然后将第一导电片20a通过第一定位孔11a放置到基板10上,与此同时,锡会将第一导电片20a与基板10焊接到一起。左端子38a通过基板10内的布线与设置在基板10的背表面10b上的左后端子39a相连接,左后端子39a通过基板10内的布线与晶元40或者电子元器件相连接。使得第一导电片20a可以发挥对应的功能。第二导电片20b与第一导电片20a具有相同的生产过程和布置,在生产过程中,首先在右端子38b上点加热后的锡(用于焊接),然后将第二导电片208通过第二定位孔11b放置到芯片100基板10上,与此同时,锡会将第二导电片20b与基板10焊接到一起。右端子38b通过基板10内的布线与设置在基板10的背表面10b上的右后端子39b相连接,右后端子39b通过基板10内的布线与晶元40或者电子元器件相连接。使得第二导电片20b可以发挥对应的功能。
进一步的,本实施为增强导电片与基板的连接强度,如图22所示,基板10靠近其上表面10f的一端设置有左端子38a、右端子38b,左端子 38a、右端子38b均位于基板的正表面10a上;本实施例中将左端子38a的延伸至基板上侧及左侧延伸至基板的边缘处,以增大左端子38b的表面积,进而可增大与左导电片的焊接面积及焊点,可以增强左导电片与基板的连接强度,防止其从基板上脱落;同样的,右端子38b的上侧及右侧延伸至基板的边缘处,以增大右端子的表面积,进而可增大与左导电片的焊接面积及焊点,可以增强左导电片与基板的连接强度,防止其从基板上脱落。可以理解的是,左端子38a的右侧与右端子38b的左侧之间具有间隙,为进一步降低两者之间的间隙,进一步增大左端子38a及右端子38b的表面积,如图23所示,可将左端子38a的左侧延伸并包裹其左侧定位孔,并与右端子保持间隙,另外,可将右端子38b的右侧延伸并包裹其右侧定位孔,并与左端子38a保持间隙。
本实施例中,基板10设置有与触针相电连接的基板端子30,基板端子30与导电片20之间还设置有附加端子;附加端子与至少一个与芯片100的存储数据的晶元40相连接。具体的,基板10上设置有一个或者多个基板端子30,其数量可以与触针的数量相一致。当然,触针的数量与基板端子30的个数也可以不一致。例如,基板10上只有5个基板端子、触针有9个触针,其中有一个触针是空置的,是空置触针,空置触针不连接喷墨打印机的内部电路或者连接的电路不影响墨水容器的使用。在另一种实施方式中:基板10上只有4个基板端子、触针有9个触针,除了上述的空置触针外,有2个触针同时与1个基板端子相连接,用于安装检测作用。具体如图24所示,基板10上只有5个基板端子。基板10上的第一基板端子31有延伸部分,其与第一触针211、第二触针212同时接触,第一基板端子31具有2个接触区域。使用此技术可以用于检测墨水容器300是否正确安装到保持部200内。如果墨水容器300正确安装到保持部200内的话,第一触针211、第二触针212同时与第一基板端子31接触,第一触针211、第二触针212就会被第一基板端子31连接到一起,第一触针211与第二触针212上的电压都是一致,最终只需要检测第一触针211与第二触针212上的电压是否变得一致即可得出是否同时接触到第一基板端子31,进一步的完成装机检测。基板10与第四触针214对应的位置(即基板10上的第四基板端子34的位置处)不具有端子,在基板10上不具有 与第四触针214相接触的接触区域。第四触针214不连接喷墨打印机的内部电路,是一个空置触针。其余基板端子、导电片与芯片100均参照基板上设置有7个基板端子的连接形式相一致。
进一步的,如图25是实施例一的另一种芯片100的示意图。基板10具有:七个基板端子31-37,且七个基板端子31-37呈长方形状依次排列为一排。但是其接触区域仍然与图6所示的芯片100一致。基板10上的基板端子的形状改变,仍可达到本实施例的有益效果。
进一步的,如图21所示,基板10上设置有第一基板端子31、第二基板端子、第三基板端子33、第四基板端子34、第五基板端子35、第六基板端子36及第七基板端子37,以及在基板的一端设置有第一导电片20a和第二导电片20b,且上述基板端子与第一导电片20a之间设置有第一附加端子51a、与第二导电片之间设置有第二附加端子51b;其中,第二基板端子32、第三基板端子33、第五基板端子35、第七基板端子37(以下统称为晶元40端子)与晶元40相连接。
第一附加端子51a与第二基板端子32相连接(例如,通过设置在基板10上的导线相连接),第二附加端子51b与第七基板端子37相连接。即,第一附加端子51a、第二附加端子51b可相当于与晶元40相连接的基板端子的延伸部。因为第一附加端子51a、第二附加端子51b的存在,使得导电片与第一基板端子30、第二基板端子30之间有阻挡,此结构降低了导电片20与第一基板端子31、第二基板端子32发生短路串联的可能性。而且,晶元端子通常设置ESD保护电路,ESD保护电路能够让第一基板端子承受数百伏-数千伏的电击电压,故,即使晶元40端子与导电片20/第一基板端子31、第二基板端子32之间发生短路,喷墨打印机/墨水容器被损坏的风险比较低,如此设置在导电片20与第一基板端子31、第二基板端子32之间设置晶元端子,降低了他们之间短路串联的可能性,降低损坏的风险。
图20是上述芯片100安装到一种墨水容器300上的示意图。适配器340是墨水容器300的一部分,一般情况下,适配器340与盒体310相配合,形成一个完整的墨水容器300。当盒体310中的墨水消耗完的时候,只需要更换盒体310即可,适配器可继续使用,降低了成本,节约了资源。 适配器340上具有供出墨口311插入的缺口343、芯片安装表面340c、两个相对设置的第一凸起柱341及两个相对设置的第二凸起柱342。
芯片100放置在芯片安装表面340c上。芯片100上的两个相对设置的第一限位槽11及两个相对设置的第二限位槽13,用于将芯片100固定在墨水容器300上。适配器340上的两个第一凸起柱341分别与两个第二限位槽13配合两个第二凸起柱342分别与第一限位槽11相配合,使得芯片100可以固定在墨水容器300上。第一凸起柱341与第第二限位槽13的形状相互匹配,当芯片100安装到适配器340上时,第一凸起柱341与第三限位槽11相抵接,使得芯片100不会在适配器340上移动。第二凸起柱342与第一限位槽11的配合形式一致,这里将不再提供其详细阐述。
如图26、图27、图30-图34所示,本实施例还提供了另一种墨水容器,包括墨水容器的芯片100;芯片100上设置有多个限位槽,墨水容器上设置有多个与限位槽相配合的限位块;芯片100通过限位槽及限位块可拆卸安装在墨水容器上。
具体的,如图26所示为本实施例提供的另一种墨水容器,其包括芯片架320,且芯片架320可拆卸安装在在墨水容器上,图27为上述墨水容器相配合的保持部200,用于将此种带有芯片架320的墨水容器安装至保持部200上。

进一步的,盒体310还包括芯片架320,芯片架320用于固定芯片100,芯片100可拆卸连接在芯片架320上,位于芯片安装位置的盒体310上,盒体310设置有用于安装芯片架320的安装腔,以便芯片架320插接安装在安装腔内,盒体310上设置的限位块可位于芯片架320上,且靠近芯片100安装面的表面设置;芯片100设置有多个与限位块相配合的限位槽,从而可将芯片100可拆卸连接在芯片架320上,再将芯片架320固定在盒体310上,以实现将芯片100安装至墨水容器上。
盒体310在安装腔的两侧分别设置有至少一个第一卡位孔313,相应的,芯片架320包括第一连接部325和第一固定部321,第一固定部321上设置有用于安装芯片100的安装面,第一连接部325用于将芯片架320固定在盒体310上,第一连接部325的两侧分别设置有与第一卡位孔313相配合的第一定位凸台326,待芯片架320插入安装腔内,第一定位凸台326可卡入第一定位孔11a内,以将芯片架320固定在盒体310上。
参阅图30、图31及图32所示,第一连接部325可由第一固定部321延伸生成,即第一连接部325的一端与第一固定部321相衔接,第一连接部325的另一端设置有第二限位凸台327,第二限位凸台327上套接有弹性元件328,弹性元件328的一端抵接在第二限位凸台327与第一连接部325之间形成的抵接面上,弹性元件328的另一端抵接在安装腔的内壁上。本实施例提供的弹性元件328可以是采用硅胶或者橡胶制作,第二限位凸台327可以是圆柱,圆柱与第一连接部325之间形成抵接面;弹性元件328套接在圆柱上,其一端抵接在抵接面上,另一端抵接在安装腔的内壁上,进而将芯片架320弹性安装在盒体310的安装腔内。
进一步的,如图33和图34所示,在第一连接部325远离第一固定部321的一端设置有斜面329,斜面329倾斜角度朝向芯片架320的转动方向倾斜,使得第一连接部325的端部距离安装腔的腔壁具有一定间隙,以便于芯片架320在安装腔内可转动;在带有芯片架320的墨水容器300安装至打印机的保持部200时,芯片架320的两侧设置有第一定位凸台326, 且墨水容器300的盒体上设置有第一卡位孔313,且第一定位凸台326安装在第一卡位孔313并且第一定位凸台326可在第一卡位孔313内转动;待芯片100架320插入喷墨打印机的墨水容器300内,第一定位凸台326卡入第一卡位孔313内,转动盒体,可使芯片架320相对保持部200可转动并调节芯片100相对触针架210的安装位置,使得导电片20与触针211接触。本实施例中,第一连接部325设置的斜面329,以使芯片架320在安装腔内具有一定的可旋转角度,其旋转角度可为10°至15°,优选为12.4°。当墨水容器与保持部200接触时,芯片100与喷墨打印机的保持部200的侧壁部件之间具有间隙,防止在墨水容器安装至保持部200时,保持部200触碰导电片20;避免导电片20被刮伤或者从基板10上脱落。
实施例二:
本实施例的芯片100包括至少一个导电片,下面以导电片为两个为例来说明。图16和图17是实施例二中的芯片示意图。如图16和图17所示,芯片100具有芯片基板10、第一导电片20a、第二导电片20b。芯片基板10上的7个基板端子31-37在Z轴方向上呈两排排列,沿-Z轴方向,依次为第一排R1、第二排R2。芯片100具有:第一凹部151、第二凹部152、第三凹部153、第四凹部154、第五凹部155、第六凹部156、第七凹部157。其中,第三凹部153、第四凹部154、第七凹部157可以作为定位凹部将芯片100固定到适配器340或者墨水容器300上,具体的,第三凹部153、第四凹部154、第七凹部157与芯片架320或者适配器340或者墨水容器300上的凸起相匹配,用于把芯片100固定在芯片架320或者适配器340或者墨水容器300上。其中,第三凹部153、第四凹部154位于芯片100的+Z轴方向侧,为圆孔形状;第七凹部157位于芯片100的-Z轴方向侧,为半圆形形状。本领域的技术人员可以理解,第三凹部153、第四凹部154、第七凹部157可以是其它形状,只要能保证可以固定芯片100即可。
定位导电片20的定位部11,是2个贯穿芯片100厚度方向上的贯穿孔。优选的,定位部11可以是多个定位孔,具体的在本实施例中,定位部11为第一定位孔11a,第二定位孔11b。导电片20的定位安装部23穿过定位部11来定位导电片20。进一步的,定位安装部23为从本体21突出的凸起,定位安装部23插设在到对应的定位部11中。导电片20可以 通过焊接、黏贴的方式通过定位安装部23、本体21与芯片基板相应部分的固定来固定导电片20。
基板端子31-37设置在芯片100的正表面10a上,基板端子31-37与触针架201上相应的触针相接触,每个基板端子均具有与相应的触针相接触的基板端子接触部,其中可以理解的是,芯片100的正表面10a即为芯片基板的正表面10a,芯片100的背表面10b即为芯片基板的背表面10b。导电片20a、20b的本体21设置在芯片100的背表面一侧;导电片20a、20b的电芯连接部22从背表面10b一侧开始穿过芯片100的第五凹部155、第六凹部156且突出于正表面10a。此种结构,可以使得,导电片20a、20b的本体21设置在芯片100的背表面10b侧,导电片20a、20b的电芯连接部22从本体21朝向芯片基板的+X轴一侧延伸,电芯连接部22穿过作为避让凹部的第五凹部155、第六凹部156,并突出于芯片基板的正表面侧,而与相应的触针相接触。更好的实现了基板端子与导电片的合理布局,使得芯片100更容易实现小型化。
第五凹部155、第六凹部156分别位于芯片100的-Y轴侧和+Y轴侧。7个基板端子接触部在Z轴方向上呈两排排列,沿-Z轴方向,依次为第一排、第二排,导电片20a、20b的电芯连接部22位于第一排和第二排之间。进一步的,导电片20a、20b的电芯连接部22位于基板端子31-37在Z轴方向上分隔排布的第一排R1和第二排R2之间。
进一步的,基板端子接触部在Z轴方向上呈多排排列,导电片20的电芯连接部22位于基板端子接触部形成的多排之间。
进一步的,基板端子30在Z轴方向上可以排列为多排(例如,3排、4排),导电片20的电芯连接部22位于基板端子形成的多排之间。
如此设置,可以使得,导电片20与触针接触时,会接触到第八触针218的第一部分218a、第九触针219的第一部分219a,而并不是第一实施例内容中的导电片20与第八触针218的第一垂直部分218d、第九触针219的第一垂直部分219d。第一实施例内容中导电片20的电芯连接部22的至少一部分深入到触针槽内,并且需要压迫第八触针218的第一垂直部分218d、第九触针219的第一垂直部分219d,因为第一垂直部分218d、第九触针219的第一垂直部分219d距离触针的固定部位(水平部分218f、 219f)较近,使得容易过度压迫触针218、219,可能会造成触针的损坏或者弹性变形能力失效。本实施例中的导电片20a、20b与第八触针218的第一部分218a、第九触针219的第一部分219a相接触,导电片不会进入到触针槽内,且更容易与触针相接触,同时避免造成触针过渡挤压而产生电连接失效的情况。
图18是第一导电片20a的示意图。第一导电片20a的电芯连接部22与本体21相垂直,定位安装部23与本体21相垂直;本体21与基板端子所在表面10a平行且设置在芯片100的背表面10b的一侧,电芯连接部22在Y轴方向的长度D1大于Z轴方向上的长度D2。Y轴方向上的长度比较大,即使墨水容器在Y轴方向上产生位置偏差或者偏移,也不会导致芯片无法识别的情况,使得导电片与触针接触更加稳定。第二导电片20b的设置方式、结构与第一导电片20a是沿中心线L1对称设置的。
进一步的,如图19所示,当墨水容器安装到保持部内,因为导电片20a、20b与触针的第一部分接触,且导电片接触区域22a会对触针的第一部分产生一个压迫力,使得触针218、219相比其他与基板端子相接触的触针211-217来说,被压缩量更大,从而触针218、219相比触针211-217来说更靠近+X轴方向,从而触针218、219不会进入到第三凹部14。
芯片基板10上设置有左后端子39a、右后端子39b、晶元40、电子元器件。左后端子39a与第一导电片20a相对应,右后端子39b与第二导电片20b相对应。第一导电片20a通过焊接或者黏贴的方式左后端子39a与芯片基板10固定且第一导电片20a通过左后端子39a与晶元230或者电子元器件231产生电连接。第二导电片20b通过焊接或者黏贴的方式右后端子39b与芯片基板10固定且第二导电片20b通过右后端子39b与晶元40或者电子元器件产生电连接。
第一导电片20a的定位安装部23在电芯连接部22的-Z轴方向上,进一步的,第一排R1的基板端子31-34在第一导电片20a的定位安装部23和电芯连接部22之间,使得芯片可以进一步小型化,缩小芯片的尺寸。本申请实施例中,在Z轴方向上,第一导电片20a的电芯连接部22和定位安装部23可以分别位于本体21的两侧。而在X轴方向上,电芯连接部22与定位安装部23可以分别位于本体21的同侧。
进一步的,在芯片基板的正表面10a上还可以设有附加端子,附加端子阻隔在导电片的电芯连接部和对应相邻的基板端子之间,即,基板端子30与导电片20之间还设置有附加端子,以避免导电片和相邻基板端子的短路,附加端子可以从Y轴方向上位于内侧的基板端子上延伸出,且附加端子与至少一个与芯片100的存储数据的晶元40相连接。
例如,如图16所示,芯片100的第二基板端子32具有附加端子32a,第三基板端子33具有附加端子33a。附加端子32a设置在第一基板端子31与第一导电片20a之间,附加端子33a设置在第四基板端子34与第二导电片20b之间。附加端子与实施例一的技术效果一致,这里将不再提供其详细阐述。
芯片100放置在墨水容器的芯片安装表面340c上。芯片100上的第三凹部153、第四凹部154、第七凹部157是用于将芯片100固定在适配器340上的部分。适配器340上的凸起与第三凹部153、第四凹部154、第七凹部157相配合,使得芯片100可以固定在适配器340上。
实施例二的芯片100安装到适配器340、芯片架320与实施例一相同。这里将不再提供其详细阐述。芯片架320的芯片安装表面上具有三个凸起。这三个凸起分别跟芯片100上的第七凹部157、第三凹部153、第四凹部154抵接,使得芯片100固定在芯片架320上。此外,也可以在芯片架320上设置凸起,防止第一导电片20a、第二导电片20b受到外力作用的时候产生位移;具体的,可以在第一导电片20a的-Y轴侧,第二导电片20b的+Y轴侧设置凸起,阻挡第一导电片20a、第二导电片20b在Y轴方向上的移动,增加了芯片100与触针接触的准确性。
墨水容器300安装到保持部200的方式与实施例一相同,这里将不再提供其详细阐述。
其余与实施例一一致。
实施例三:
如图28所示,芯片基板10’上只有5个基板端子31’、33’、35’、36’、37’。芯片基板10’上的第一基板端子31’在Y轴方向上的长度比其他端子要长,其与第一触针211、第二触针212同时接触,第一基板端子31’具有2个接触区域。使用此技术可以用于检测墨水容器300是否正确安装到保 持部200内。如果墨水容器300正确安装到保持部200内的话,第一触针211、第二触针212同时与第一基板端子31’接触,第一触针211、第二触针212就会被第一基板端子31’连接到一起,第一触针211与第二触针212上的电压都是一致,最终只需要检测第一触针211与第二触针212上的电压是否变得一致即可得出是否同时接触到第一基板端子31’,进一步的完成装机检测。芯片基板10’与第四触针214对应的位置(即芯片100上的第四基板端子34的位置处)不具有端子,在芯片基板10’上不具有与第四触针214相接触的接触区域。第四触针214不连接喷墨打印机的内部电路,是一个空置触针。其余基板端子、导电片20a-20b与芯片100一致。芯片100’上只具有8个接触区域。
其余与实施例二一致。
实施例四:
图29是实施例四的芯片示意图。芯片100”的芯片基板10”具有:基板端子31”-37”。基板端子31”-37”呈长方形状依次排列为一排。但是其接触区域仍然与图10所示的芯片一致。仅仅是芯片的芯片基板上的端子的形状改变,仍可达到本申请的有益效果。
7个基板端子接触部在Z轴方向上呈两排排列,沿-Z轴方向,依次为第一排、第二排,导电片20a、20b的电芯连接部位于第一排和第二排之间。
进一步的,基板端子接触部在Z轴方向上呈多排排列,导电片20a、20b的电芯连接部位于基板端子接触部形成的多排之间。
基板端子、凹部等特征与实施例一描述的一致。
实施例五:
图35是实施例五的芯片示意图。
与实施例二不同的是:一部分基板端子设置在芯片的下表面上。如图35所示,第五基板端子35至第七基板端子37设置在芯片100的基板10的下表面10e上。优选的,第五基板端子35、第六基板端子36、第七基板端子37不但设置在下表面10e上,而且还设置在正表面10a和背表面10b上。如此结构,可以使得第五基板端子35、第六基板端子36、第七基板端子37与相应触针的第一部分的斜坡部相接触。具体的,第五基板端 子35与第五触针215的第一部分215a的斜坡部相接触。如此,可以使得降低了触针给予芯片的作用力,更好的避免了芯片被损伤的情况。
第三凹部153、第四凹部154、第八凹部158为半圆形形状,是用于将芯片固定到墨盒上的。
其基板端子大部分在正表面10a上。在X轴方向上,基板端子31-37大部分位于芯片基板10的+X轴一侧。也可以认为是,在X轴方向上,基板端子31-37位于芯片基板10的+X轴一侧。也能达到实施例二的技术效果。
实施例六:
图36是实施例六的芯片示意图。
与实施例一不同的是:一部分基板端子设置在芯片的下表面上。如图35所示,第五基板端子35至第七基板端子37设置在芯片100的基板10的下表面10e上。优选的,第五基板端子35、第六基板端子36、第七基板端子37不但设置在下表面100e上,而且还设置在正表面10a和背表面10b上。如此结构,可以使得第五基板端子35、第六基板端子36、第七基板端子37与相应触针的第一部分的斜坡部相接触。具体的,第五基板端子35与第五触针215的第一部分215a的斜坡部相接触。如此,可以使得降低了触针给予芯片的作用力,更好的避免了芯片被损伤的情况。
其基板端子大部分在正表面10a上。在X轴方向上,基板端子31-37大部分位于芯片基板10的+X轴一侧。也可以认为是,在X轴方向上,基板端子31-37位于芯片基板10的+X轴一侧。也能达到实施例一的技术效果。
进一步的,参阅图12,本实施例中芯片100可拆卸连接在芯片架320上,具体的,芯片100包括基板10,基板10的一端设置有导电片20,沿基板10设置有导电片20的一端至其相对端的方向(如图3所示,沿基板10的X轴方向),基板10上依次设置有一组第一限位槽12,一组第二限位槽13及一组第三限位槽14,第一限位槽12、第二限位槽13及第三限位槽14作为避让凹部,且每组限位槽包括两个对称设置在芯片100两侧的限位槽;第一限位槽12靠近导电片20设置,第三限位槽14由基板10远离导电片20的一端边缘延伸至中部附近,第三限位槽14的长度方向与 X轴方向平行,第二限位槽13设置在第一限位槽12和第二限位槽13之间,第二限位槽13可设置成弧形槽,第一限位槽12和第三限位槽14可为矩形缺口;芯片架320上的第一固定部321设置有与第一固定部321设置有与第一限位槽12相配合的第一限位块322、与第二限位槽13相配合的第二限位块323以及与第三限位槽14相配合的第三限位块324;待芯片100需安装至芯片架320上,可使第一限位块322抵接在第一限位槽12内,第二限位块323抵接在第二限位槽13内,第三限位块324抵接在第三限位槽14内,进而将芯片100可拆卸连接在芯片架320上。
进一步的,为防止电芯连接部22变形,可将第一限位块322的高度凸出基板10的正表面10a,第一限位块322部分抵接在芯片100的基板10上,部分抵接在导电片20的电芯连接部22上,能够避免电芯连接部22变形,可增强电芯连接部22与触针电性连接地稳定性。
最后应说明的是:以上各实施例仅用以说明本发明的技术方案,而非对其限制;尽管参照前述各实施例对本发明进行了详细的说明,本领域的普通技术人员应当理解:其依然可以对前述各实施例所记载的技术方案进行修改,或者对其中部分或者全部技术特征进行等同替换;而这些修改或者替换,并不使相应技术方案的本质脱离本发明各实施例技术方案的范围。
