A method for manufacturing an inkjet print cartridge and an inkjet cartridge produced thereby are disclosed. An inkjet print cartridge in accordance with one aspect includes a component of the inkjet print cartridge and an applied adhesive on at least a portion of the component, wherein the applied adhesive is formed from an adhesive having a rheology viscosity ratio ηi/ηmin of from 1.0 to less than 2.1. The method in accordance with one aspect includes applying an adhesive onto at least a portion of a component of an inkjet print cartridge at an application temperature, Tα, and heating the adhesive from an initial temperature, Ti, to a cure temperature for the adhesive, Tc. The adhesive has a rheology cure profile characterized by at least one of the following parameters: a) a rheology viscosity ratio ηi/ηmin of from 1.0 to less than 2.1, b) a temperature of the adhesive is approximately equal to a minimum viscosity temperature for the adhesive, Tηmin, within less than about 10 minutes from the start of the cure cycle, and c) viscosity of the adhesive increases within less than about 5 minutes from the start of the cure cycle.

A multi-fluid body and an ejection head substrate connected in fluid flow communication with the multi-fluid body for ejecting multiple fluids therefrom. The multi-fluid body includes at least two segregated fluid chambers. Independent fluid supply paths lead from each of the fluid chambers providing fluid to multiple fluid flow paths in the ejection head substrate. The ejection head substrate is attached adjacent an ejection head area of the body. The fluid flow paths in the ejection head substrate have a flow path density of greater than about one flow paths per millimeter.

An apparatus for a laser transmission welding process for attaching a synthetic filter material to a filter tower frame in an ink jet printer cartridge. The apparatus includes a laser beam source and a filter clamping fixture containing a base, slide rods attached on first ends thereof to the base, an optics support plate attached to second ends of the slide rods, a movable platform for holding an ink cartridge slidably disposed on the slide rods between the base and the optics support plate, a platform moving device for translating the platform to and from a laser welding position, a laser beam transparent plate suspended by support legs from the optics support plate to a position between the movable platform and the optics support plate. The apparatus greatly improves synthetic filter attachment to a filter tower frame in an ink cartridge.
摘要:
A process for fabricating an integrated circuit package. Metal is plated up on a substrate to provide a plurality of contacts pads and a plurality of fiducial markings on a periphery of the contacts. A transparent mask is selectively deposited on the substrate, over the fiducial markings. A semiconductor die is mounted on the substrate such that the contact pads circumscribe the semiconductor die and the semiconductor die is wire bonded to ones of the contact pads. The wire bonds are encapsulated and the semiconductor die and contact pads are covered in a molding material. The substrate is selectively etched to thereby etch away the substrate underneath the contact pads and the semiconductor die. The integrated circuit package is singulated from other integrated circuit packages by sawing using the fiducial markings.

Printing systems such as those comprising a printing device operable for depositing one or more inks upon a substrate and a drying device, such as one operable for emitting radiation having a pre-selected electromagnetic wavelength, for the purpose of drying the one or more inks in a predetermined time period subsequent to the deposition of the one or more inks upon the substrate, wherein the printing device and the drying device are operated at about the same moving speed. Methods of printing, such as those comprising depositing one or more inks onto a substrate using a printing device and drying the one or more deposited inks using a drying device, such as one operable for emitting pre-selected wavelengths of energy that are focused onto the one or more deposited inks in a predetermined time period subsequent to ink deposition, wherein the depositing and the drying are synchronized.

A micro-fluid ejection device structure, a multi-fluid cartridge containing the ejection device structure, and methods for making the ejection device structure and cartridge. The micro-fluid ejection device structure includes a fluid supply body containing at least three fluid supply slots therein. An ejection head substrate having fluid feed slots therein is attached to the fluid supply body. Each of the fluid supply slots in the body is in flow communication with at least one of the fluid feed slots in the substrate. A plurality of adhesive bond lines adhesively attach the ejection head substrate and the fluid supply body to one another. Each of the adhesive bond lines have a width of less than about 600 microns and are located between adjacent ones of the fluid supply slots in the body.
摘要:
Ink delivery systems achieve balanced ink flow by positioning two or more ink chambers around ink ejection mechanisms in a printhead. A plurality of pie-shaped ink chambers may be arranged in a circle above an ink ejection mechanism, which provides short ink paths from each ink chamber, and ink paths having approximately the same length. This fosters even ink flow rates and equal pressure drop/loss of ink supplies, thereby improving ink feeds to a printhead and providing improved jetting efficiency and printhead performance.

A method of assembling a print head that includes the steps of: (a) providing a print head base including a nozzle and at least one ink channel; (b) mounting in fluid communication with the at least one ink channel of the print head base an ink regulator that includes: (i) a pressurized chamber including an ink inlet in fluid communication with an ink source, an ink outlet in fluid communication with the at least one ink channel of the print head base, and an exterior flexible wall having an inner surface facing an interior of the pressurized chamber, (ii) a valve biased to restrict fluid communication between the ink source and the pressurized chamber, where the exterior flexible wall actuates the valve to overcome the bias in response to a predetermined pressure differential across the exterior flexible wall to provide fluid communication between the ink source and the pressurized chamber, where the fluid communication between the pressurized chamber and the ink source decreases the pressure differential across the exterior flexible wall and, where the valve restricts fluid communication between the ink source and the pressurized chamber when the pressure differential across the exterior flexible wall is less than the predetermined pressure differential; and, (c) positioning an ink filter in fluid communication with the ink regulator and the at least one ink channel of the print head base.
