摘要:
An ink jet head having a buffer chamber which absorbs any back-pressure wave generated as a result of generation of back wave, thereby preventing reduction of refilling with ink. Exothermic elements provided in buffer chambers formed in a common ink chamber generate bubbles so that bubbles are always maintained in the buffer chambers so as to ensure stable recording.

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 head cartridge stored in a closed space. The ink jet head cartridge includes a negative pressure generating member containing chamber and a liquid supply container which has a liquid containing part forming a closed space and generating negative pressure by deforming accompanied with flowing-out of the contained liquid and a box-like body with an inside surface equal to or analogous to the outside surface of the liquid containing part and with an atmosphere communicating part and which is mounted onto a mounting part so as to form the communicating part. As stored, a first sealing member seals the ejection port and a second sealing member seals the atmosphere communicating part, part of the liquid containing part is separated from the box-like body, and the interior of the liquid containing part and the liquid supply passage from the communicating part to the recording head are filled with liquid.

摘要:
A liquid container detachably mountable to a mounting portion of an ink jet recording apparatus in a slot-like mounting configuration where the liquid container is supported between a pair of engaging portions that respectively engage with a corresponding pair of locking portions on the mounting portion of the recording apparatus. The liquid container is supported in an upright configuration and includes a display portion on an upper side thereof, and a light emitting portion which emits light for display by the display portion. Because the display portion is disposed on an upper side, a user can confirm the display despite the mounting arrangement of the liquid container in the recording apparatus.
