摘要： A dryer assembly for drying a liquid ink image formed on a substrate comprising a housing defining a portion of a sheet moving path; a plenum positioned within the housing, the plenum including air flow and outlet means contiguous to the plenum permitting forced air to exit the plenum, the outlet being in the form of a plurality of moving openings adapted to direct flowing air through the openings to the liquid image, the openings moving relative to the image; and a substrate transport device for moving the substrate carrying the liquid ink image on a front side thereof through the housing and under the plurality of moving openings. The dryer assembly has particular use in an ink jet printing system.

摘要： The present application is directed to piezoelectric actuator devices. One embodiment of a piezoelectric actuator comprises a chamber diaphragm having a major surface. A piezoelectric transducer is positioned on the major surface of the chamber diaphragm. The piezoelectric transducer has a major surface having a first dimension which is smaller than a corresponding second dimension of the major surface of the chamber diaphragm, so that the piezoelectric transducer underlaps the chamber diaphragm. The underlap ratio of the first dimension to the second dimension ranges from about 0.70 to about 0.99.

摘要： A high shear ball check valve device is provided and is suitable for use in a liquid ink image producing machine to quickly and precisely control flow of liquid ink. The high shear ball check valve device includes a valve housing defining a valve chamber. The valve chamber has a desired cross-dimension, an inlet end, and an outlet end. The high shear ball check valve device also includes an inlet member that is connected to the inlet end of the valve housing and has an inlet opening and a ball seat and seal portion surrounding the inlet opening. The ball seat and seal portion has a desired first durometer hardness value. The high shear ball check valve device next includes a valve ball having a desired diameter and being located movably within the valve chamber, and an outlet opening located at the outlet end of the valve chamber. The outlet opening has a rectangular shape, and a size that is slightly greater than the diameter of the valve ball, for creating a backward fluid flow pattern that results in relatively high shear stress on the valve ball. The relatively high shear stress thereby quickly moves the valve ball away from the outlet opening and back against the ball seat and seal portion to shut off the inlet opening.

摘要翻译： 提供高剪切球止回阀装置，适用于液体油墨图像生成机，以快速且精确地控制液体油墨的流动。 高剪切球止回阀装置包括限定阀室的阀壳体。 阀室具有期望的横向尺寸，入口端和出口端。 高剪切球止回阀装置还包括入口构件，其连接到阀壳体的入口端，并且具有入口开口和围绕入口的球座和密封部分。 球座和密封部分具有期望的第一硬度计硬度值。 高剪切球止回阀装置接下来包括具有期望直径并且可移动地位于阀室内的阀球，以及位于阀室出口端处的出口。 出口开口具有矩形形状，并且其尺寸略大于阀球的直径，用于产生导致阀球上相对较高剪切应力的向后流体流动模式。 因此，相对较高的剪切应力使阀球快速移动离开出口开口并抵靠球座和密封部分以切断入口。
