Problems solved by technology

However, no matter what the cleaning and maintenance method is, it will increase the volume and weight of the printing device, and increase the complexity of the printing device design
What's more, the traditional scraper cleaning method is more likely to damage the surface properties of the nozzle hole after repeated use

Abstract

The invention relates to a fluid injector and relative method for checking and cleaning the injector, wherein said device comprises a fluid injecting element and a fork surface sound wave element on the injecting element. The injecting element has a fluid chamber in the substrate to contain fluid, with a structural layer; and at least one fluid flowing element is above the structural layer and opposite the fluid chamber; and an injection hole is near the flowing element and through the structural layer to connect the fluid chamber.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a fluid injection device, in particular to a fluid injection device with a surface acoustic wave element and a method for detecting and cleaning the fluid injection device by using the surface acoustic wave element. Background technique [0002] In recent years, microfluid ejection devices have been widely used in the information industry, such as inkjet printers and similar equipment. With the gradual development and maturity of micro system engineering, fluid injection devices have gradually been applied in many other fields, such as fuel injection system, cell sorting device, drug delivery system , printing lithography (print lithography) and micro jet propulsion system (micro jetpropulsion system), etc. In various application fields of fluid ejection devices, a more successful design is to eject micro-droplets by means of thermally driven bubbles. It is also the most common in use due to its simple design and low cost. ...
