LIQUID EJECTING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18488813 titled 'LIQUID EJECTING APPARATUS
Simplified Explanation
The liquid ejecting apparatus described in the patent application includes a liquid ejection head, a recovery unit, a housing, a discharge unit, a casing, and a liquid receptacle. The recovery unit maintains the performance of the liquid ejection head, while the housing accommodates the liquid received by the recovery unit. The discharge unit then transfers the liquid to the container, and the liquid receptacle is positioned below the discharge unit in the casing, featuring grooves in different directions.
- Liquid ejecting head for ejecting liquid
- Recovery unit to maintain performance
- Housing to accommodate liquid
- Discharge unit to transfer liquid
- Liquid receptacle with grooves for liquid collection
Potential Applications
The technology described in the patent application could be applied in various industries such as printing, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics for precise liquid ejection and recovery.
Problems Solved
This technology solves the problem of maintaining the performance of liquid ejecting heads over time by incorporating a recovery unit and efficient liquid collection system.
Benefits
The benefits of this technology include improved liquid ejection performance, reduced waste of liquid materials, and enhanced overall efficiency in liquid handling processes.
Potential Commercial Applications
The liquid ejecting apparatus could be utilized in commercial printers, medical devices, and beauty products manufacturing for accurate and efficient liquid dispensing.
Possible Prior Art
One possible prior art could be a similar liquid ejecting apparatus with a recovery unit, but without the specific liquid receptacle design described in this patent application.
Unanswered Questions
How does the liquid receptacle prevent spillage of collected liquid?
The patent application does not provide detailed information on how the liquid receptacle design prevents spillage of collected liquid during the ejection process.
What materials are used in the construction of the liquid ejecting head?
The patent application does not specify the materials used in the construction of the liquid ejecting head, which could impact its durability and performance.
Original Abstract Submitted
A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a liquid ejection head to eject liquid, a recovery unit, a housing, a discharge unit, a casing including the discharge unit and the housing, and a liquid receptacle. The recovery unit maintains liquid ejecting performance of the liquid ejection head. The housing houses a container that accommodates liquid received by the recovery unit. The discharge unit discharges the liquid received by the recovery unit to the container. The liquid receptacle is disposed below the discharge unit in a direction of gravity in the casing and includes a first groove extending in a first direction crossing the direction of gravity and a second groove extending in a second direction crossing the direction of gravity and the first direction.
