Inkjet Printing Apparatus, Sheet Drying Apparatus, and Sheet Drying Method - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18307188 titled 'Inkjet Printing Apparatus, Sheet Drying Apparatus, and Sheet Drying Method
Simplified Explanation
The abstract describes an inkjet printing apparatus that includes a conveyance section, an ink ejection section, a first heat source, and a second heat source.
- The conveyance section is responsible for moving a cut sheet through the apparatus.
- The ink ejection section ejects ink onto the sheet to create an image at a specific position.
- The first heat source is located downstream of the ink ejection section and dries the ink on the sheet.
- The second heat source is positioned opposite the first heat source and contacts the back surface of the sheet to heat it.
- The first heat source uses electromagnetic waves to heat the ink ejection face of the sheet through radiant heat.
Original Abstract Submitted
An inkjet printing apparatus comprises: a conveyance section that conveys a cut sheet; an ink ejection section that ejects an ink to form an image when the sheet passes a predetermined position; a first heat source that is provided on a downstream side of the ink ejection section and dries an ink ejection face of the sheet; and a second heat source that is arranged to face the first heat source and comes into contact with a back surface of the sheet opposite to the ink ejection face to heat the sheet. The first heat source emits an electromagnetic wave to heat the ink ejection face by radiant heat.
