[0022] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0023] Please refer to Figures 1-6 , an embodiment provided by the present utility model:
[0024] An electrostatic-preventable cartridge: including a cartridge body 1, a humidifying mechanism is arranged on the surface of the cartridge body 1. The humidifying mechanism includes a fixing frame 2, the fixing frame 2 is fixedly connected to both sides of the cartridge body 1, water delivery tanks 21 are fixedly connected to both sides of the cartridge body 1, a humidifying cloth 22 is fixedly connected to the surface of the fixing frame 2, a ventilation opening 23 is formed on the surface of the fixing frame 2, a water supply tank 24 is fixedly connected to the surface of the cartridge body 1, a water supply pipe 25 is fixedly connected to the surface of the water supply tank 24, one end of the water supply pipe 25 away from the water supply tank 24 is fixedly connected to the water delivery tank 21, and a water adding pipe 26 is arranged on the surface of the water supply tank 24. This humidifying mechanism can increase the humidity of the surrounding environment of the cartridge body 1, avoid the cartridge body 1 being in a dry environment, thereby reducing the possibility of the cartridge body 1 drying, and further reducing the risk of the cartridge body 1 generating static electricity, and further realizing the pre-elimination of static electricity of the cartridge body 1.
[0025] Further, an ink filling mechanism is provided on the surface of the ink cartridge body 1. The ink filling mechanism includes a guiding tube 3. The guiding tube 3 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the ink cartridge body 1. A spring 31 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the guiding tube 3. A first piston 32 is fixedly connected to the surface of the spring 31. A connecting rod 33 is fixedly connected to the surface of the first piston 32. A second piston 35 is fixedly connected to the surface of the connecting rod 33. An ink delivery tube 34 is fixedly connected to the inner surface of the ink cartridge body 1. The ink filling mechanism does not require opening the ink cartridge for ink filling, and the ink filling speed is fast, which improves the ink filling speed of the ink cartridge body 1.
[0026] Further, the fixing frame 2 is integrally in an "L" shape. There are multiple groups of ventilation openings 23, and the ventilation openings 23 are linearly and evenly arranged on the surface of the fixing frame 2. When the air inside the printer passes through the ventilation openings 23 and is output to the humidifying cloth 22, the ventilation openings 23 are used to control the speed at which the moisture on the humidifying cloth 22 is dissipated into the air, thereby ensuring the environmental humidity around the ink cartridge body 1.
[0027] Further, the water supply tank 24 is filled with water through a water filling pipe 26. The water supply tank 24 replenishes water into the water delivery tank 21 through a water supply pipe 25, ensuring that there is always a water source inside the water delivery tank 21 to supply the humidifying cloth 22, so that the humidifying cloth 22 can humidify the surrounding air for a long time.
[0028] Further, one end of the humidifying cloth 22 away from the fixing frame 2 is fixedly connected inside the water delivery tank 21. The humidifying cloth 22 sucks out the water inside the water delivery tank 21 and then releases it on both sides of the ink cartridge body 1. The material of the humidifying cloth 22 is a fiber material, which can absorb moisture into the body and then release it into the surrounding environment. One end of the humidifying cloth 22 connected to the water delivery tank 21 passes through the upper surface of the water delivery tank 21 and enters the inside of the ink cartridge body 1. And there are mounting holes on the upper surface of the water delivery tank 21. The mounting holes are small, and the humidifying cloth 22 is clamped and fixed on the water delivery tank 21, so that the water inside the water delivery tank 21 cannot come out from inside the water delivery tank 21 and can only be absorbed and released by the humidifying cloth 22.
[0029] Further, the first piston 32 is slidably connected to the guiding tube 3, and the second piston 35 is slidably connected to the ink delivery tube 34. The inner and outer diameters of the ink delivery tube 34 and the guiding tube 3 are the same and are on the same horizontal line. The first piston 32 makes the second piston 35 slide synchronously inside the ink cartridge body 1 through the connecting rod 33. During the sliding process of the second piston 35, the spring 31 will be deformed, and the elastic force of the spring 31 acts on the connecting rod 33 and the second piston 35 through the first piston 32.
[0030] Further, the ink delivery tube 34 communicates the inside and outside of the ink cartridge body 1 at the top of the ink cartridge body 1. A plurality of ink filling holes are formed at the bottom of the ink delivery tube 34, and the ink filling holes are evenly distributed in a ring shape on the ink delivery tube 34. When the height of the second piston 35 is lower than the top of the ink filling holes of the ink delivery tube 34, the ink cartridge body 1 can be filled with ink through the ink filling holes of the ink delivery tube 34.
[0031] Working principle: Water is added into the water supply tank 24 through the water adding pipe 26. The water supply tank 24 adds water into the water delivery tank 21 through the water delivery pipe 25. The humidifying cloth 22 sucks out the water in the water delivery tank 21 on the fixing frame 2. Air enters the humidifying cloth 22 through the ventilation opening 23, and the air brings out the water in the humidifying cloth 22, thereby humidifying the environment around the ink cartridge body 1, preventing the ink cartridge body 1 from being in a dry environment, further reducing the risk of static electricity generation in the ink cartridge body 1, reducing the adhesion between ink particles and ink, improving the fluidity of the ink, preventing the ink cartridge nozzle from being blocked, and ensuring the normal use of the ink cartridge body 1.
[0032] On the surface of the ink delivery tube 34, the ink filling tube is brought into contact with the second piston 35, and the second piston 35 is squeezed to slide downward on the ink delivery tube 34. The second piston 35 drives the first piston 32 to slide downward on the guide tube 3 through the connecting rod 33, so that the first piston 32 squeezes the spring 31. When the height of the second piston 35 is lower than the top of the ink filling holes of the ink delivery tube 34, the ink filling tube fills the ink cartridge body 1 with ink through the ink filling holes of the ink delivery tube 34. When the ink filling tube leaves the second piston 35, the elastic force of the spring 31 pushes the first piston 32 back to its original position. The first piston 32 makes the second piston 35 slide back to its original position on the ink delivery tube 34 through the connecting rod 33. At this time, ink cannot be filled through the ink filling holes of the ink delivery tube 34. This ink filling mechanism makes the ink filling of the ink cartridge body 1 more convenient and improves the ink filling efficiency of the ink cartridge body 1.

Therefore, from any point of view, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-limiting.
