A ceramic inkjet printer ink path system

Abstract

An ink path system for a ceramic inkjet printer, comprising an ink supply system, a re-circulation system, an air way system and a control system; the ink supply system comprises an ink tank (1), an ink supply pump (2), and an ink supply tube (17); the re-circulation system comprises a buffer tank (9), a re-circulation pump (28), an ink inlet cartridge (13), an ink outlet cartridge (12), a re-circulation ink tube and a nozzle (14); the ink tank (1) is in communication with the buffer tank (9), an inner ink tube (24) being provided within the buffer tank (9); the ink inlet cartridge (13) is in communication with a bottom portion of the inner ink tube (24), and the ink outlet cartridge (12) is in communication with a bottom portion of the buffer tank (9).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to ceramic ink-jet printing technology, in particular to an ink path system of a ceramic ink-jet printer. Background technique [0002] Now the ink system of inkjet printers has been developed for a period of time, it is relatively mature, and the competition in the industry is fierce. The existing inkjet printer ink path system has the following disadvantages: [0003] 1. The existing ink system is independently controlled according to the needs of the nozzle, one ink box for entering and one for exiting the ink box, so it needs 2 sets of ink supply systems, 2 sets of air system and 2 sets of control systems to control the entry and exit of two ink cartridges, so The required parts and materials are very large, and the final cost is high, resulting in low market competitiveness; [0004] 2. Now the ink system needs to have stirring motors, heating rods, heating strips and other materials, which will increase the risk of the who...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0003] 1. The existing ink system is independently controlled according to the needs of the nozzle, one ink box for entering and one for exiting the ink box, so it needs 2 sets of ink supply systems, 2 sets of air system and 2 sets of control systems to control the entry and exit of two ink cartridges, so The required parts and materials are very large, and the final cost is high, resulting in low market competitiveness;

[0004] 2. Now the ink system needs to have stirring motors, heating rods, heating strips and other materials, which will increase the risk of the whole machine, control points and costs;

[0005] 3. The existing ink system has not been fully utilized

This design makes the gas path more complicated, the pipeline parts increase, and the cost is also increased.
