[0007] Optionally, the new ink bag is fitted over at least a portion of the modified bag and is sealed to the modified bag.

[0008] Optionally, the length of the new ink bag is different from the length of the modified bag along the length direction of the recycled ink cartridge; And / or, along the width direction of the recycled ink cartridge, the width dimension of the new ink bag is different from the width dimension of the modified bag.

[0009] Optionally, the length of the new ink bag is greater than the length of the modified bag; And / or, the width of the new ink bag is greater than the width of the modified bag.

[0010] Optionally, the modified connection structure is formed by removing the entire original ink bag from the original ink cartridge; The portion of the new ink bag connected to the modified connection structure covers at least a portion of the outer side of the modified connection structure.

[0011] Optionally, the new ink bag is sealed to the modified connection structure by adhesive bonding.

[0012] Optionally, the regenerated ink cartridge may also include a protective element; At least a portion of the protective element is disposed on the outside of the connection between the new ink bag and the modified connection structure.

The new ink bag is sealed to the modified connecting structure, and the new ink bag is connected to the outlet of the original connecting component, through which the ink from the new ink bag is exported.

[0016] In other words, if the original ink bag of the original ink cartridge is damaged, aged, or the ink in the original ink bag is used up, the original ink cartridge can be modified by removing at least part of the original ink bag, while retaining at least the original connecting parts to form a modified connecting structure. A new ink bag can then be connected to the modified connecting structure to form a new ink cartridge, thereby improving the reuse rate of the original ink cartridge. That is, the empty ink cartridge shell can be recycled, reducing waste and saving the processing cost of recycled ink cartridges.

[0023] It should be noted that the terms "a" and "a plurality of" used in this application are illustrative rather than restrictive, and those skilled in the art should understand that, unless otherwise expressly indicated in the context, they should be understood as "one or more".

[0024] Ink cartridges, such as pouch-type cartridges, consist of an ink pouch for holding ink and a connecting component on the ink pouch. The connecting component has a discharge section for discharging the ink from the ink pouch. This discharge section connects to the printer's printhead to supply ink to it. However, with this type of cartridge, if the ink pouch is damaged or aged, the entire cartridge becomes unusable, resulting in waste.

[0025] Based on this, this application provides a regenerated ink cartridge and a printing device. The regenerated ink cartridge is modified from an original ink cartridge, which can specifically be a recycled ink cartridge. Specifically, the original ink cartridge includes an original ink bag and an original connecting component. The original ink bag stores ink, and the original connecting component is connected to the end of the original ink bag. The original connecting component has a discharge section for discharging ink from the original ink bag. After the original ink cartridge is recycled, at least a portion of the original ink bag is removed, leaving at least the original connecting component. Then, a new ink bag is sealed to the removed portion of the original ink bag, thereby forming a regenerated ink cartridge. This improves the reuse rate of the empty cartridge shell, reduces waste, and saves on the processing cost of the regenerated ink cartridge.

[0026] The regenerated ink cartridge and printing equipment provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments: Reference Figures 1 to 12As shown, this application embodiment provides a regenerated ink cartridge 100, which can be applied to a printing device, such as an inkjet printer. For example, the printer has a mounting section, and the regenerated ink cartridge 100 is detachably mounted on the mounting section. The mounting section has a printhead, and the regenerated ink cartridge 100 supplies ink to the printhead to achieve printing.

[0027] The regenerated ink cartridge 100 provided in this application embodiment is modified from the original ink cartridge. The original ink cartridge specifically includes the original ink bag and the original connecting component 21 disposed at the end of the original ink bag. The original ink bag is used to contain ink, and the original connecting component 21 has a discharge part 211, which is used to discharge the ink in the original ink bag.

[0028] Original ink cartridges can specifically refer to recycled ink cartridges, such as original ink cartridges that have run out of ink, or original ink cartridges that have aged or been damaged.

[0029] For example, the original connecting component 21 may include a bracket body, and the outlet portion 211 is disposed on the bracket body. The outlet portion 211 and the bracket body may be injection molded from plastic material.

[0030] The regenerated ink cartridge 100 provided in this embodiment includes: a new ink bag 1 and a modified connecting structure 2. The modified connecting structure 2 is formed by removing at least a portion of the original ink bag from the original ink cartridge, and the modified connecting structure 2 has an outlet portion 211.

[0031] In other words, at least part of the original ink bag of the original ink cartridge is removed, and the remaining part includes at least the original connecting part 21, which is then formed into the modified connecting structure 2 described above.

[0032] For example, at least part of the original ink bag can be removed using tools such as a cutter or scissors, as long as at least part of the original ink bag of the original ink cartridge can be effectively removed.

[0033] The new ink bag 1 is sealed to the modified connecting structure 2, and the inner cavity of the new ink bag 1 is connected to the outlet 211 so that the ink in the new ink bag 1 can be exported through the outlet 211, thereby forming a new regenerated ink cartridge 100.

[0034] Reference Figure 8 As shown, for example, the new ink bag 1 is a hollow bag with an opening 11 at one end, which can be sealed to the modified connection structure 2 through the opening 11.

[0035] The new ink bag 1 can be made of materials such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), nylon, or polyethylene, or it can be formed by stacking layers of the above materials. The original ink bag and the new ink bag 1 can be made of the same or different materials.

[0036] In practice, for example, if the original ink bag of the original ink cartridge is damaged, aged, or the ink in the original ink bag is used up, the original ink cartridge can be recycled. The recycled original ink cartridge can be modified by removing at least part of the original ink bag, while retaining at least the original connecting part 21 with the outlet 211, forming a modified connecting structure 2. Then, the new ink bag 1 is sealed and connected to the modified connecting structure 2, so that the new ink bag 1 is connected to the outlet 211, thereby forming a new recycled ink cartridge 100, allowing the empty ink cartridge shell to be recycled and reused.

[0037] The regenerated ink cartridge 100 provided in this application embodiment includes a new ink bag 1 and a modified connecting structure 2. The modified connecting structure 2 is formed by removing at least a portion of the original ink bag from the original ink cartridge. The new ink bag 1 is sealed and connected to the modified connecting structure 2, so that the new ink bag 1 is connected to the outlet portion 211 of the original connecting component 21, and the ink of the new ink bag 1 is exported through the outlet portion 211.

[0038] In other words, if the original ink bag of the original ink cartridge is damaged, aged, or the ink in the original ink bag is used up, the original ink cartridge can be modified by removing at least part of the original ink bag, while retaining at least the original connecting part 21, forming a modified connecting structure 2. A new ink cartridge can be formed by simply connecting a new ink bag 1 to the modified connecting structure 2, thereby improving the reuse rate of the original ink cartridge. That is, the empty ink cartridge shell can be recycled, reducing waste and saving the processing cost of the recycled ink cartridge 100.

[0039] Reference Figures 1 to 9 As shown, in some embodiments, the above-mentioned removal of at least a portion of the original ink bag from the original ink cartridge can specifically be: removing a portion of the original ink bag from the original ink cartridge, such as removing the damaged portion, and the remaining portion of the original ink bag and the original connecting component 21 connected to that portion of the original ink bag together form the modified connecting structure 2 described above.

[0040] In other words, the modified connecting structure 2 includes a modified bag 22 and the original connecting component 21 disposed at the end of the modified bag 22. The modified bag 22 is formed by removing at least the portion of the original ink bag that is furthest from the original connecting component 21. The new ink bag 1 is sealed to the modified bag 22, thereby forming a new ink cartridge.

[0041] For example, the modified bag 22 can be made of materials such as polyethylene terephthalate (PET), nylon, polyethylene, etc., or it can be formed by laminating films made of the above materials.

[0042] By removing a portion of the original ink bag and retaining the other portion, the new ink cartridge's body is formed by the new ink bag 1 and the retained portion of the original ink bag. This arrangement makes the connection between the new ink bag 1 and the retained portion of the original ink bag more convenient. On the other hand, it facilitates the improvement of the sealing between the new ink bag 1 and the modified connection structure 2, thereby ensuring the overall sealing of the ink cartridge and preventing ink leakage.

[0043] Combination Figures 1 to 9 As shown, in some embodiments, the new ink bag 1 is fitted over at least part of the modified bag 22 and is sealed to the modified bag 22.

[0044] This design further improves the ease of connection between the new ink bag 1 and the modified bag 22, and facilitates the improvement of the sealing between the new ink bag 1 and the modified bag 22. Moreover, the nesting method can also improve the structural strength of the connection between the new ink bag 1 and the modified bag 22, thereby improving the structural strength of the entire ink bag.

[0045] Reference Figure 9 As shown, exemplarily, the opening 11 of the new ink bag 1 is connected upward from the bottom of the modified bag 22 to fit over the outside of the modified bag 22.

[0046] Specifically, the new ink bag 1 can completely cover the modified bag 22, which can further improve the connection reliability and structural strength. Of course, the new ink bag 1 can also only cover a part of the modified bag 22, as long as an effective sealed connection between the new ink bag 1 and the modified bag 22 can be ensured.

[0047] Of course, in other embodiments, the opening 11 of the new ink bag 1 can also be embedded inside the modified bag 22 to form a sealed connection with the modified bag 22. Alternatively, the opening 11 of the new ink bag 1 can be spliced ​​to the bottom end of the modified bag 22.

[0048] In some embodiments, the new ink bag 1 and the modified connection structure 2 can be bonded and sealed by an adhesive 3, which makes the connection convenient and the seal reliable.

[0049] Combination Figures 1 to 9 As shown, for example, the new ink bag 1 and the modified bag 22 are bonded together by the adhesive 3 to achieve a sealed connection.

[0050] For example, the colloid 3 can be a tape, such as a rubber tape. Rubber tape has high bonding strength, tensile strength and corrosion resistance, and excellent air tightness and water tightness, which further ensures the stability and reliability of the sealed connection between the new ink bag 1 and the modified connection structure 2.

[0051] For example, the tape can be butyl rubber tape. Of course, in other implementations, the tape can also be silicone rubber tape, etc.

[0052] Reference Figures 1 to 4 , Figure 9 As shown, in practice, adhesive 3 can be first applied to the outer surface of the modified bag 22 to bond the new ink bag 1 to the outside of the modified bag 22. Then, at least one layer of adhesive 3 can be wrapped around the outside of the new ink bag 1, such as at the top joint of the new ink bag 1 and the modified bag 22, to further improve the connection and sealing effect between the new ink bag 1 and the modified bag 22.

[0053] In other embodiments, the new ink bag 1 may be connected to the modified bag 22 first, and then the connection between the two may be sealed from the outside using adhesive 3.

[0054] In addition, in some other embodiments, the new ink bag 1 and the modified connecting structure 2 can also be sealed together by welding. For example, the new ink bag 1 and the modified bag 22 can be sealed together by ultrasonic welding.

[0055] In some embodiments, the length of the new ink bag 1 may be different from that of the modified bag 22 along the length direction of the regenerated ink cartridge 100, and / or the width of the new ink bag 1 may be different from that of the modified bag 22 along the width direction of the regenerated ink cartridge 100.

[0056] Combination Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 9 As shown, the length direction along the regenerated ink cartridge 100 can specifically be... Figure 1 The Y-axis, along the width direction of the regenerated ink cartridge 100, can specifically be... Figure 1 The X-axis in the middle. The specific length dimension of the modified bag 22 can be... Figure 6 The dimension d in the figure, the width dimension of the modified bag 22 can be specifically as follows: Figure 6 The dimension c in the text. The specific length dimension of the new ink bag 1 can be... Figure 9 In dimension b, the width of the new ink bag 1 can be specifically defined as follows: Figure 9 The dimension a in the middle.

[0057] In other words, the size of the new ink bag 1 can be different from the size of the modified bag 22. For example, the length of the new ink bag 1 is different from the length of the modified bag 22, and the width of the new ink bag 1 is different from the width of the modified bag 22; or only the length of the new ink bag 1 is different from the length of the modified bag 22; or only the width of the new ink bag 1 is different from the width of the modified bag 22.

[0058] This configuration allows the ink bag capacity of the regenerated ink cartridge 100 to be adjusted according to actual needs. For example, the size of the new ink bag 1 can be made larger than the size of the modified bag 22 to expand the capacity. Moreover, when the size of the new ink bag 1 is larger than the size of the modified bag 22, the connection between the new ink bag 1 and the modified bag 22 is more convenient. Alternatively, the size of the new ink bag 1 can be made smaller than the size of the modified bag 22 to reduce the capacity. Thus, the regenerated ink cartridge 100 provided in this application embodiment can achieve the recycling of the empty ink cartridge shell, reduce waste, and at the same time, achieve flexible adjustment of the ink bag capacity to meet diverse usage needs.

[0059] For example, when expanding capacity, the length of the new ink bag 1 can be greater than the length of the modified bag 22, and the width of the new ink bag 1 can be greater than the width of the modified bag 22; or, the length of the new ink bag 1 can be greater than the length of the modified bag 22, and the width of the new ink bag 1 can be equal to the width of the modified bag 22; or, the width of the new ink bag 1 can be greater than the width of the modified bag 22, and the length of the new ink bag 1 can be equal to the length of the modified bag 22.

[0060] It is understandable that when the width of the new ink bag 1 is different from the width of the modified bag 22, the connection between the new ink bag 1 and the modified bag 22 should be sealed.

[0061] Reference Figure 10 As shown, in some embodiments, the above-mentioned removal of at least a portion of the original ink bag from the original ink cartridge can also be: removing the entire original ink bag from the original ink cartridge, retaining only the original connecting component 21 with the outlet portion 211. In other words, the modified connecting structure 2 is formed by removing the entire original ink bag from the original ink cartridge. In this case, a new ink cartridge is formed by sealing the new ink bag 1 with the original connecting component 21.

[0062] Wherein, the part of the new ink bag 1 connected to the modified connecting structure 2 covers at least part of the outer side of the modified connecting structure 2, that is, the part of the new ink bag 1 connected to the original connecting component 21 covers at least part of the outer side of the original connecting component 21, ensuring that the new ink bag 1 is connected to the outlet 211, so that the outlet 211 is exposed, so that the ink in the new ink bag 1 can be exported.

[0063] Reference Figure 11 and Figure 12As shown, in some embodiments, the regenerated ink cartridge 100 also includes a protective element 4, at least part of which is disposed on the outside of the connection between the new ink bag 1 and the modified connection structure 2.

[0064] By setting up protective component 4, the connection between the new ink bag 1 and the modified connection structure 2 is effectively protected, which further improves the connection stability and reliability of the connection, thereby improving the structural strength and sealing of the entire ink cartridge.

[0065] Continue to refer to Figure 11 and Figure 12 As shown, in some embodiments, the protective element 4 may include an upper cover 41 and a lower cover 42, which are respectively disposed on opposite sides of the modified connection structure 2, and the upper cover 41 and the lower cover 42 are detachably connected.

[0066] When the new ink bag 1 is sealed and connected to the modified connecting structure 2, the upper cover 41 and the lower cover 42 are located on opposite sides of the modified connecting structure 2. Then the upper cover 41 and the lower cover 42 are connected, so that the upper cover 41 and the lower cover 42 together protect the modified connecting structure 2 and the connection between the modified connecting structure 2 and the new ink bag 1.

[0067] For example, the upper cover 41 and the lower cover 42 can be engaged by a snap-fit ​​mechanism, such as a snap-fit ​​on the upper cover 41 and a snap-fit ​​hole on the lower cover 42 for the snap-fit ​​to engage. Alternatively, the upper cover 41 and the lower cover 42 can also be connected by screws.

[0068] Reference Figure 12 As shown, in some embodiments, the protective member 4 is provided with a gripping member 5 for holding. The gripping member 5 facilitates the operator's gripping and removal of the ink cartridge, improving operational convenience and user experience.

[0069] In some embodiments, the grip 5 can be rotatably connected to the protective member 4.

[0070] This allows the gripper 5 to rotate towards the protective member 4 to a retracted state, or to rotate away from the protective member 4 to an extended state for gripping. This design saves space occupied by the gripper 5 to some extent and avoids interference between the gripper 5 and other components on the printing equipment after the regenerated ink cartridge 100 is installed.

[0071] For example, the grip 5 can be a handle, with both sides of the handle rotatably connected to the protective member 4. In other implementations, the grip 5 can also be a grip protrusion or the like provided on the protective member 4.

[0072] For example, the lower cover 42 has a clearance hole 421 at the position corresponding to the outlet portion 211, and the outlet portion 211 is exposed in the clearance hole 421. The grip 5 is rotatably connected to the side of the upper cover 41 opposite to the lower cover 42.

[0073] This application also provides a printing device, such as an inkjet printer.

[0074] The printing device may include a mounting section and a regenerated ink cartridge, which is detachably mounted on the mounting section.

[0075] For example, the mounting section has a printhead, and when the regenerated ink cartridge is mounted on the mounting section, the outlet of the regenerated ink cartridge communicates with the printhead to supply ink to the printhead. When the printer prints, the ink is developed onto the printing medium (e.g., paper).

[0076] For example, one or more regenerated ink cartridges can be installed on the mounting unit, and multiple regenerated ink cartridges can be arranged side by side. The ink colors in the multiple regenerated ink cartridges can be the same or different.

[0077] The regenerated ink cartridge in this embodiment has the same specific structure and implementation principle as the regenerated ink cartridge 100 provided in the above embodiment, and can bring the same or similar technical effects. It will not be described in detail here, but can be referred to the description of the above embodiment.
