Embodiment Construction

[0024] A method of refilling ink cartridges with ink, comprising the steps of:

[0025] 1. Connect the ink filling port of the ink cartridge to the ink supply port of the ink storage container of the ink filling tool that is not completely filled with ink, wherein the ink storage container of the ink filling tool is filled with ink to the maximum scale of the container (approximately the ink storage container 2 / 3 of the volume), connect the aspirator with the ink storage container of the ink filling tool and seal the ink cartridge;

[0026] 2. Use an aspirator to suck the air inside the ink storage container of the ink filling tool. Due to the air pressure balance principle of the airtight container, the gas in the ink cartridge will flow from the ink supply pipe to the ink storage container;

[0027] 3. Release the aspirator, and the ink cartridge will automatically absorb the ink in the ink storage container of the ink filling tool due to air pressure balance;

[0028] 4. R...

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for refilling ink to an ink box, comprising the following steps: 1, sealing an ink filling opening of the ink box with an ink supply opening of an ink storage container of an ink filling tool incompletely filled with ink in a sealing way, sealing a suction unit with the ink storage container of the ink filling tool and sealing the ink box; 2, sucking air inside the ink storage container of the ink filling tool with the suction unit; and 3, releasing the suction unit, wherein the ink box automatically absorbs ink in the ink storage container of the ink filling tool as a result of air pressure balance. As air in the ink box is absorbed based on the air pressure principle, and the absorbed pressure is cancelled to press ink in the ink storage container inside the ink box based on the air pressure principle, residual ink in the ink box is not needed and the whole process is carried out under a sealing state, thereby solving the technical problems of ink waste and environmental pollution caused by sucking residual ink inside the ink box by the prior ink refilling method. The invention also provides an ink filling tool used in the method.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method and a filling tool for refilling ink into an ink cartridge. Background technique [0002] In a printing device such as an inkjet printer, printing is performed by ejecting liquid ink onto a printing medium. A printing device, especially a small one for home use, stores ink in an ink cartridge, and then continuously supplies ink from the ink cartridge to a print head to perform printing. However, since the device must be miniaturized, ink cartridges (such as Figure 1 Shown) itself is designed to a smaller volume, and its capacity is also limited. Therefore, the ink cartridges need to be constantly replaced or replenished with ink. [0003] Considering the effective utilization of resources, it is preferable to replenish ink to the ink cartridge instead of replacing the ink cartridge. However, the actual situation is that when the general consumer refills ink to the ink cartridge, the method of injecting directly with...
