摘要:
A liquid container for a liquid jet recording apparatus comprises a first chamber containing negative pressure producing material and having a liquid outlet connectable to a liquid jet head to supply liquid from the container to the liquid jet head and an air vent for allowing ambient air into the container, wherein the liquid outlet is provided in a bottom portion of the first chamber. A second chamber communicates with the first chamber by a communication path and is substantially hermetically sealed. A wall extends upwardly from the communication path of the first chamber. An ambient air introducing path is provided for between the wall and the negative pressure producing material extending from a point partly up the wall toward the communication path for introducing ambient air into the second chamber.

An ink jet recording head includes a plurality of discharge ports for discharging ink, a plurality of ink flow paths in communication with the plurality of discharge ports, a plurality of substrates including discharge energy generating elements for providing discharge energy for discharging ink, a supporting member for supporting a plurality of substrates in an arranged state, and a ceiling plate member for forming the plurality of ink flow paths by being bonded to a plurality of arranged substrates.
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 liquid container for a liquid jet recording apparatus includes a first chamber containing negative pressure producing material and having a liquid outlet. At a lower part of the cartridge and contactable to the liquid jet head, the liquid container supplies liquid from the cartridge to the liquid jet head. An air vent allows ambient air into the cartridge. A second chamber communicates with the first chamber by means of a communication part, except for which the second chamber is substantially hermetically sealed. The second chamber is disposed at the lower part of the cartridge and provides a liquid reservoir for the first chamber. Ambient air is introduced through an air path substantially free of negative pressure producing material, having an inlet in the first chamber separated from the air vent by the negative pressure producing material, and an outlet arranged to be lower than the inlet during use of the cartridge to enable air to be supplied to the second chamber through the negative pressure producing material and the air path as liquid is withdrawn from the liquid outlet.
摘要:
An ink-tank cartridge has a first storage chamber housing a negative pressure generating member and having an atmosphere communicating portion communicated with the atmosphere, a second storage chamber in substantially enclosed condition and communicated with the first storage chamber only through a fine communicating portion located remote from said atmosphere communicating portion, and directly storing an ink to be supplied to the first storage chamber, the second storage chamber being arranged adjacent the first storage chamber; and an enclosed ink storage portion only communicated with the second storage chamber and located at respective side surfaces of the first and second storage chambers. The bottom surface of the enclosed ink storage portion is located at higher position than the bottom surface of the first and second storage chambers.
摘要:
A replaceable ink cartridge has a body for storing the ink; an ink outlet for supplying the ink into a recording head; an air communicating port for communicating with an atmosphere; a peripheral portion around the ink outlet; a peripheral portion around the air communicating port; a seal member for removably sealing the peripheral portion around the ink cutlet and the peripheral portion around the air communicating port. The replaceable ink cartridge has a structure that is formed so as to strip the seal member off from the peripheral portions of the ink outlet and the air communicating port in a manner that the air communicating port is opened at first and the ink outlet is opened at second.
