Embodiment Construction

[0020] The drawing shows an ink cartridge 10 for an otherwise not described inkjet printer comprising a ventilation opening 17 between the ink storage chamber 20 and the environment 21 and an ink cartridge arranged in the bottom 13 of the housing 1 of the ink cartridge 10 The valve 22 of the discharge port 11, which, when installed in the printer, can be brought from the closed position depicted in the figures into the open position and vice versa against the action of the elastic element (here the helical compression spring 6) . According to the present invention, the valve 12 arranged at the ink outlet 11 is connected with the valve 23 arranged at the ventilation opening 17 so that when the ink cartridge is installed in the printer, the ink outlet 11 and the ventilation opening 17 are opened, or when the ink cartridge is released from the printer. The opposite is true when taking it out. The coupling already mentioned is produced in such a way that when the ink cartridge is ...

Abstract

Ink cartridge (10) for inkjet printers having a ventilation opening (17) between the ink storage space (20) and the surroundings (21), and having a valve (22) which is assigned to an ink outlet (11) and, when inserted into the printer, can be moved from a closed position into an open position and vice versa counter to the action of an elastic element (6). The valve (22) which is assigned to the ink outlet (11) is coupled in such a way to a valve (23) which is assigned to the ventilation opening (17) that, when inserted into the printer, the ink outlet (11) and the ventilation opening (17) are opened successively, or vice versa when the ink cartridge (10) is removed from the printer.

Description

[0001] technical content [0002] The invention relates to an ink cartridge for an inkjet printer, comprising a vent opening between the ink storage chamber and the environment and a valve arranged at the ink outlet opening, which overcomes the action of the elastic element when installed in the printer It is possible to go from the closed position to the open switch position and vice versa. [0003] In addition the invention relates to an ink cartridge in the above manner comprising a level indicator with an opaque or reflective flag, wherein the flag is connected to a float arranged in the ink cartridge or its housing such that With the sinking filling level, the mentioned flag can be moved either into the area of ​​the optocoupler arranged in the printer or out of this area. Background technique [0004] Ink cartridges closed for transport in the manner described above must be ventilated before or during installation in the printer by opening the connection between the env...
