Embodiment Construction

[0046] The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0047] Fig. 1 illustrates an embodiment of the ink jet recording apparatus of the present invention. The housing is composed of a housing main body 1 and a cover 2 . The bracket 4 is accommodated in the housing, opposite to the pressing plate 3 and capable of reciprocating movement. Two kinds of ink cartridges 5 and 6 having different widths are detachably mounted on the top surface of the carriage 4 .

[0048] FIG. 2 illustrates an embodiment of the bracket 4 . In this embodiment, ink jet recording heads 7 and 8 which receive ink supply from ink cartridges 5 and 6, respectively, are provided on the bottom surface of the carriage 4. As shown in FIG. The vertical wall 11 forms a box-like casing on the upper surface of the carriage 4 to accommodate the ink cartridges 5 and 6, leaving their top surfaces exposed. In this way, the cartridge holder 9 is integrally formed...

Abstract

There is disclosed an ink cartridge capable of being removably held in an ink cartridge accommodation portion simply by pushing in the cartridge in an insertion direction. The ink cartridge (5) is mounted on a carriage (4) having a cartridge accommodation region. A one-push type fixing member (30) in a position facing a surface parallel to an insertion direction in which the cartridge is inserted into the cartridge accommodation region is engaged with a fixing protrusion (12a) forming another one-push type fixing member and cooperating with the first-mentioned one-push type fixing member, so that the cartridge (5) is held in a predetermined position in a state in which the cartridge is resiliently urged by a spring (24) in a direction opposite to the insertion direction.

Description

[0001] This application is a divisional application filed on June 17, 2003 with the application number 03149117.0 and the title "Inkjet Recording Device and Ink Cartridge". technical field [0002] The present invention relates to an inkjet recording apparatus equipped with a recording head capable of ejecting ink droplets onto a recording medium in response to a printing signal, and to an ink cartridge used in the inkjet recording apparatus. Background technique [0003] An inkjet recording device has a recording head for ejecting ink droplets. The recording head is mounted on a carriage that reciprocates relative to the recording medium. Currently used recording devices are designed so that ink can be supplied from an ink cartridge to a recording head through an ink passage such as a tube, or ink is supplied to the recording head through ink supply needles formed on a carriage on which the ink cartridge is mounted. [0004] This type of inkjet recording apparatus adopts a...
