Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of printer ink cartridges, and more specifically to a printer ink cartridge capable of preventing leakage. Background Art

[0002] Printer cartridges are replaceable components used to store ink or ink in printers. They usually contain ink, nozzles and other related parts and are used to spray ink onto paper to form text or images during the printing process. Existing ink cartridges have a small ink storage capacity and cannot be reused. After being discarded, the ink cartridges are difficult to recover and easily pollute the environment. At the same time, the ink concentration is uneven when the printer is working, and the print quality is relatively poor, which shortens the service life of the ink cartridges and greatly reduces the reliability of the ink cartridges.

[0003] In view of the above problems, the existing ink cartridges have a small ink storage capacity, cannot be reused, and the ink concentration is uneven when the printer is working, the printing quality is relatively poor, the service life of the ink cartridge is shortened, and the reliability of the use of the ink cartridge is greatly reduced. After a lot of searching, a new type of printer ink cartridge with patent number CN202847114U was found, which includes an ink storage chamber, air holes, ink supply ports, linings and stirring bodies. The top of the ink storage chamber is provided with air holes and ink supply ports, the inner wall of the ink storage chamber is provided with linings, the ink storage chamber is provided with stirring bodies, and the bottom of the ink storage chamber is provided with tracks, and the stirring bodies are fixed in the ink storage chamber through the tracks. This new type of printer ink cartridge has a simple, compact and reasonable structure, is easy to assemble and quick, has reliable connection, has a large ink storage capacity, can be reused, has good printing quality, is easy to recover after the ink cartridge is discarded, and extends the service life of the ink cartridge, greatly improves the reliability of the use of the ink cartridge, and is easy to use and promote; however, the technical solution provided by the patent has the following problems:

[0004] (1) There is no effective flow control measure at the ink outlet, and the ink may flow out at an inappropriate time or in an inappropriate manner, resulting in extravasation. Ink extravasation will lead to ink waste, especially when the printer is not used for a long time, continuous ink extravasation may lead to ink exhaustion;

[0005] (2) The ink in the printer cartridge is stored with a high viscosity, so when the ink in the cartridge is used, some of the ink will remain and stick to the inner wall of the cartridge, causing waste.

[0006] The utility model can be provided with a sealing device at the ink outlet to prevent the ink from leaking out; and can also push down the ink adhering to the inner wall of the ink cartridge, so that the ink can be used in a concentrated manner and the ink waste can be reduced. Utility Model Content

[0007] The utility model aims to solve the technical problems raised by the above-mentioned background technology and provides a printer ink cartridge that prevents leakage. A visible groove is set to facilitate observation by staff; a stirring screw, stirring blades and a concentric scraper frame are set to stir the ink in the ink cartridge and sweep away the sticky ink on the inner wall of the ink storage cavity to prevent waste.

[0015] Beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. A visual groove is provided, through which the ink volume in the ink storage chamber can be timely understood. The length of the visual groove is half of the height of the ink storage chamber. When the ink volume in the ink storage chamber is less than half, the upper part of the visual groove and the ink will be separated by color, so that the staff can observe and decide whether to add ink according to the ink volume;

[0027] In the embodiment of the utility model, the stirring blade 7 is in the shape of a beam, and a plurality of stirring rods distributed equally are fixed around the bottom end of the stirring blade 7. The stirring screw 5 can drive the stirring blade 7 and the stirring rod on the left side of the bottom end to perform a circular motion with the stirring screw 5 as a circle to stir the ink in the ink cartridge 1.

[0028] In the embodiment of the utility model, the inner frame of the concentric scraper frame 8 is threadedly connected to the stirring screw 5, and the outer frame of the concentric scraper frame 8 is slidably connected to the ink storage chamber 2. The inner frame and the outer frame of the concentric scraper frame 8 are connected by a fixed rod, which can drive the concentric scraper frame 8 to move downward, allowing the concentric scraper frame 8 to further sweep off the sticky ink on the inner wall of the ink storage chamber 2 to prevent waste.

[0029] In the embodiment of the utility model, the outer surface of the top of the ink cartridge 1 is in the shape of a concave groove with a low middle and high surroundings, which is convenient for workers to grasp the left and right ends of the ink cartridge 1 for disassembly, saving time and effort.

[0030] In the embodiment of the utility model, the visible groove 6 is made of transparent glass, which is convenient for observing the remaining amount of ink in the ink storage chamber 2 and adding ink in time.

[0031] In the embodiment of the utility model, the number of the inlet holes 13 is 8, which are distributed in a left-right symmetrical structure, and the ink seeps evenly from the left and right sides at the same time, preventing the nearby air from being squeezed into the drainage hole 14 and forming bubbles, and affecting the subsequent printing after entering the guide path 15.

[0032] In the embodiment of the utility model, the elastic block 11 is made of elastic and shrinkable material, which facilitates the up and down movement of the ink supply needle 12 and also plays a sealing role.

[0033] Working principle: During the use of the device, the visible groove 6 is used to observe the amount of ink used. When the printer task is turned on, the ink supply needle 12 is pushed up, pierces the elastic block 11, passes through the upper cavity 10, and enters the ink outlet hole 401. The ink seeps down from the introduction hole 13, and enters the diversion path 15 after converging at the drainage hole 14. After the printer task is completed, the ink supply needle 12 is gradually withdrawn, and the remaining ink is stored in the upper cavity 10. The elastic block 11 is naturally reset to prevent the ink from flowing out, and the ink is prevented from seeping out from the ink outlet 4; at the same time, after observing the situation in the ink cartridge 1 through the visible groove 6, the user can rotate the stirring screw 5 according to the situation. The stirring screw 5 can drive the stirring blade 7 and the stirring rod on the left side of the bottom to make a circular motion with the stirring screw 5 as a circle to stir the ink in the ink cartridge 1; at the same time, the rotation of the stirring screw 5 can also drive the concentric scraper frame 8 to move downward, so that the concentric scraper frame 8 can further sweep off the sticky ink on the inner wall of the ink storage cavity 2 to prevent waste.
