    摘要: A method for joining two materials together to form a compact leak-resistant seal, particularly suited for use in thermal inkjet print cartridge ink reservoirs. The seal employs a shrink fit to clamp the two materials together. The method includes the steps of forming the first material into a desired first shot structure, placing the first shot structure in a second shot mold, and injecting the second material into the mold under adequate pressure and at an appropriate temperature. The second material has a high degree of mold shrinkage. Upon cooling, the second material shrinks tightly onto the first shot structure to form a molded joint which keeps air out and ink in when wetted and during normal shipping, storage, and operating conditions.

    摘要: A collapsible ink reservoir structure to facilitate assembly of a replaceable or refillable printer ink cartridge is comprised of a relatively rigid inner frame and flexible membranes forming an ink reservoir having side walls which collapse to a substantially flat shape to minimize the amount of ink remaining in the reservoir structure after computer generated printing has depleted the ink from the cartridge. The reservoir structure is a separate unit from the ink discharge aperture device which is assembled and mounted in an outer housing and includes the inner frame and ink bags formed of films to form the cartridge assembly. Multiple reservoirs can be formed within the structure to permit the use of different colorants in each reservoir. The structure preferably contains an ink pressure regulator within each reservoir to maintain a negative pressure therein.

    摘要: A thermal ink-jet (TIJ) pen including a plastic frame structure and side covers. To attach the covers to the plastic frame without the use of adhesives, screws, thermal or ultrasonic processes, protruding metal tabs from the cover are press fit into corresponding recess features of the plastic frame. The tabs are designed to displace plastic surrounding the frame recesses to lock the cover to the frame. The resulting frame/cover seam resists shear, axial and transverse forces that occur as a result of externally applied loads to the pen.

    摘要: A closed ink replenishment system for replenishing the supply of ink in negative pressure spring-bag reservoirs in a printer/plotter. A tube runs between each cartridge reservoir and an auxiliary reservoir mounted to the printer/plotter frame to form the closed ink system. As ink is depleted from the spring-bag reservoir during printing operation, the negative pressure in the cartridge increases, drawing ink through the tube from the auxiliary reservoir into the cartridge until the negative pressure decreases to an equilibrium point. As a result, the volume of ink within the spring-bag reservoir remains substantially constant so long as there is ink remaining within the auxiliary reservoir. This maintains the print quality. The auxiliary reservoir is a flat bag mounted on a spring-biased platform, which acts as a height regulating system. As ink is depleted from the auxiliary bag, the height of the platform and bag increases to maintain a constant pressure and elevation head at the spring-bag reservoir.
