Abstract

Die Tintenpatrone hat ein allseits geschlossenes Gehäuse (15,16) mit einer ersten Oeffnung (26) zur Aufnahme eines rohrförmigen Stutzens (5) des Druckkopfs (1) sowie einer zweiten Oeffnung (28,29) für die Zufuhr von Luft zum Innenraum des Gehäuses (15,16). Der Innenraum enthält einen tintengetränkten Schaumstoffkörper (24). Die erste Oeffnung ist innerhalb einer als Dichtfläche (26) wirkenden Bohrung durch einen Deckel verschlossen. Die zweite Oeffnung wird durch einen engen kapillaren Spalt zwischen einer länglichen Bohrung (28) und einem Dorn (29) gebildet. Durch diese Ausbildung wird eine einfache und sichere Handhabung erreicht.

Figure 00000001
The ink cartridge has a housing (15, 16) which is closed on all sides and has a first opening (26) for receiving a tubular connector (5) for the print head (1) and a second opening (28, 29) for supplying air to the interior of the housing (15.16). The interior contains an ink-soaked foam body (24). The first opening is closed by a cover within a bore acting as a sealing surface (26). The second opening is formed by a narrow capillary gap between an elongated bore (28) and a mandrel (29). This training ensures simple and safe handling.
