Definitions

  • the present invention relates to an ink cartridge for a universal printer.
  • a negative pressure generating mechanism using a valve structure constituted of a membrane and a spring is employed in an ink cartridge.
  • the negative pressure generating mechanism is disposed between an ink storage region and an ink supply port.
  • the membrane is pressed onto a valve seat by a force exerted by a spring, so as to seal an ink channel.
  • EP-A-1199178 discloses an ink cartridge with a differential pressure mechanism between the ink flow port and the ink supply chamber.
  • the manufacturing efficiency of the ink cartridges may possibly be lowered.
  • the ink storage region in order to balance the pressure inside an ink cartridge, the ink storage region must be communicated with atmospheric air and thus an ink leakage prevention mechanism needs to be added.
  • the present invention is directed to an ink cartridge for a universal printer which uses a simple valve structure to stably provide ink to a print record header.
  • the present invention provides an ink cartridge for a universal printer comprising a liquid accommodation chamber and an air pressure-difference valve connected to the liquid accommodation chamber to keep the liquid accommodation chamber in a negative pressure state, wherein the air pressure-difference valve comprises:
  • the present invention adopts an air pressure-difference valve to keep a liquid accommodation chamber in a negative pressure state.
  • the air pressure-difference valve is connected to the liquid accommodation chamber to keep it in a negative pressure state.
  • the air pressure-difference valve may be disposed in the ink storage chamber or on a front cover.
  • the front cover or the ink storage chamber has the air hole in communication with atmospheric air.
  • the air pressure-difference valve of the present invention is used to control an overall negative pressure of a gas and liquid inside the ink storage chamber.
  • the present invention can omit springs and reduces the number of parts and components thereby reducing requirements for manufacturing processes and the cost.
  • the air pressure-difference valve may be a check valve which prevents the ink from leaking out of the ink storage chamber. Thus an ink leakage prevention mechanism can be omitted and the cost is further reduced.
  • the present invention includes a liquid accommodation chamber and an air pressure-difference valve.
  • the air pressure-difference valve includes a front valve body (or an ink storage chamber) 1, a rear valve body (or a cap) 6, an air hole 2, and an air tank 3.
  • a pressure adjustment mechanism is disposed in the ink storage chamber 1 or on a front cover.
  • the air tank 3 is formed in the rear valve body 6.
  • a boss protrudes at a central portion of a bottom of the air tank.
  • a small round hole having a rim is formed in the valve membrane 4. The round hole is pressed by the boss protruding from the rear valve body 6.
  • the air pressure-difference valve is installed in the ink storage chamber I or on the front cover.
  • the front cover or the ink storage chamber 1 has the air hole 2 in communication with atmospheric air.
