Abstract
The application relates to an air path control device and a digital printer, and the air path control device comprises a main ink cartridge, an auxiliary ink cartridge, a positive pressure module, a negative pressure module, an auxiliary ink cartridge on-off valve and a main ink cartridge positive-negative pressure switching valve. The first end of the auxiliary ink cartridge on-off valve is connected with the auxiliary ink cartridge, the second end of the auxiliary ink cartridge on-off valve is connected with the negative pressure module, and the auxiliary ink cartridge on-off valve is used for opening or closing the passage between the auxiliary ink cartridge and the negative pressure module. The first end of the main ink cartridge positive-negative pressure switching valve is connected with the main ink cartridge, the second end of the main ink cartridge positive-negative pressure switching valve is connected with the positive pressure module, the third end of the main ink cartridge positive-negative pressure switching valve is connected with the negative pressure module, and the main ink cartridge positive-negative pressure switching valve is used for opening or closing the passage between the main ink cartridge and the positive pressure module and / or the negative pressure module. Through the control of the positive pressure and the negative pressure, the application realizes accurate conversion of different working states of a nozzle, so that material loss is reduced, and production efficiency is improved.
