摘要:
An ink jet head includes a first member with an energy generating element for generating energy to eject ink, a second member having an ejection outlet forming member provided with an ink ejection outlet through which the ink is ejected, the second member being affixed to the first member to form a liquid passage in fluid communication with the ejection outlet, and urging means for urging the first and second members together to substantially fix them against each other. The ejection outlet forming member has a jaw connected with a surface of the first member which has the energy generating element, the jaw being adjacent a first member side of the ejection outlet. The following relationships are satisfied, namely, b.gtoreq.5 microns, c.gtoreq.3 microns, and a+b is between 20 and 60 microns, where a is the thickness of the ejection outlet forming member, b is a depth of the jaw, and c is a distance between a connecting portion between the ejection outlet forming member and the first member and an inside end of the ejection outlet.

An ink jet head cartridge include an ink container and a porous material contained in the container for retaining the ink. A process for filling the ink container includes the steps of supplying ink in a quantity greater than that which the porous material can retain through a first port and removing through a second port at least a quantity of ink which the porous material cannot retain. The process can also be performed through a single port. At least one of the ports can also be used for communicating with a recording head portion of the cartridge.

An ink jet cartridge includes a first chamber for accommodating a negative pressure producing material and provided with air communication part for communication with ambient air, wherein a part of the negative pressure producing material does not contain ink adjacent the air communication part; a second chamber which is substantially closed except for a fine communication part for communication with the first chamber at a position away from the air communication part, wherein the second chamber directly accommodates the ink to be supplied to the first chamber.
摘要:
An ink container includes a casing, an air vent which is located in the casing, an ink supply opening for supplying ink out of the casing, and an ink absorbing material that is contained in the casing. The ink absorbing material retains ink therein, and has a generally rectangular parallelopipedal shape defined by sides of the ink absorbing material, and also has an ink supply portion for supplying ink to the ink supply opening. The ink absorbing material includes corner portions which are located between adjacent sides of the ink absorbing material. A preventing means prevents complete surface contact between the casing and said ink absorbing material by providing spaces between the casing and ink absorbing material which are in fluid communication with each other with a given space that is adjacent to a particular one of the corner portions that is most remote from the ink supply portion. The air vent is in fluid communication with the spaces.
摘要:
An ink jet cartridge has a first chamber for accommodating a negative pressure producing material and having an air communication part for communication with ambient air, and a second chamber, substantially closed except for a liquid communication part, in communication with the first chamber, which second chamber contains a reservoir of ink to be supplied to the first chamber. The negative pressure producing material in the first chamber is retracted from the liquid communication part.
摘要:
A method of making a replaceable ink cartridge uses a molded, one-piece container body with an open bottom, elongated front, back and top walls, two side walls providing major surfaces of the cartridge, and a partition attached to the side walls and extending from the top wall toward the open bottom to divide the container body into first and second compartments. A sponge-like absorbent material is inserted into the second compartment through the open bottom, which is then sealed with a bottom wall, so that the cartridge has first and second chambers communicating with each other through an opening formed by a gap between the partition and the bottom wall.

A recording head cartridge includes a recording head for ejecting recording liquid in the form of a droplet thereof; a container for containing the recording liquid; a communicating pipe for substantially balancing pressure in the container with an ambient pressure; a blocking plate disposed adjacent an inside opening of the pipe at a position away from the opening.
摘要:
An ink jet head includes first and second members for constituting liquid passages by joining them together; and a clamp for applying a line pressure to one of the members. By using such a clamp, the pressing force can be concentrated in a line to provide a uniform pressing force to ensure reliable clamping.
摘要:
An ink jet head includes an ink container; a recording head having an ink ejection outlet; a supply pipe for supplying the ink from the container to the recording head; a porous material contained in the container for retaining the ink; wherein the supply pipe is pressed to the porous material to deform it, wherein a depth of the deformation is larger than a maximum length of a cross-section of the supply pipe.
