摘要： A cleaning system for a fluid ejector arrangement employing a single roller for handling different fluids that should not be mixed. The single roller is divided into portions assigned to respective fluids. In embodiments, the single roller is used to clean a plurality of ejectors, in which case each section of the roller handles one ejector. In other embodiments, the single roller is used to clean a single ejector that ejects to a plurality of fluids, in which case each section of the roller handles one fluid. Still other embodiments can employ a plurality of ejectors and a plurality of fluids ejected from one or more of the ejectors, wherein each section of the roller is assigned to a particular fluid, whether the fluid be ejected from the same ejector or from a different ejector.

摘要： An ink jet printing apparatus including an ink jet head including an ink ejecting portion and an ejection-energy generating portion operable to eject ink droplets from the ink ejecting portion, a purging device operable to discharge the ink from the ink ejecting portion, without an operation of the ejection-energy generating portion, for thereby performing a purging operation to improve an ink ejecting state of the ink jet head, and a controller operable to control the purging device for performing the purging operation, and to control the ejection-energy generating portion for performing a flushing operation to discharge the ink from the ink ejecting portion to improve the ink ejecting state. The controller includes a flushing control portion operable to control the ejection-energy generating portion such that ink ejecting actions in the flushing operation are performed in a plurality of intermittent cycles, with a non-ejection pause being inserted between two successive ones of the intermittent cycles. The non-ejection pause has a time duration longer than a period of each ink ejecting action.

摘要： A joint structure including a first member and a second member which are jointed to each other to define a flow passage in which a fluid flows. One of the first and second members includes a weldable portion which projects toward an opposed surface of the other of the first and second members in a first direction and whose end portion is fused and welded to the opposed surface, so as to joint the first and second members to each other at a first position in the first direction. One of the first and second members includes a first projecting portion which is provided between the weldable portion and the flow passage in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, and projects toward the other of the first and second members such that a free end of the first projecting portion is located at a second position different from the first position in the first direction, while the first projecting portion cooperates with the weldable portion to define a first space therebetween in the second direction.

摘要： This invention concerns a printhead capping mechanism (62) for preventing evaporation of ink from a printhead (63) when it is not in use. The invention has utility, for instance, in a colour printer, which uses a drop-on-demand inkjet printhead (63). The mechanism (62) includes a cap (64) fitted with an elastomeric seal (65) to seal against the face of the printhead (63), and a sponge (66) to catch drops ejected from the printhead (63) during the nozzle cleaning cycle. The mechanism (62) also includes an actuating structure operable to selectively move the cap (64) between an engaged position to press against the printhead (63) and a disengaged position spaced away from the printhead (63).
