PRINTING SYSTEM - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240326473 titled 'PRINTING SYSTEM
The patent application describes a printing system that includes a printing unit with a printing head that discharges UV curable ink onto a medium, a deodorizing unit that removes odors generated by the ink, and a control unit that manages both units.
- The printing unit features a printing head that releases UV curable ink from multiple nozzles onto a medium for printing purposes.
- The deodorizing unit is designed to extract any odors produced by the UV curable ink during the printing process.
- The control unit regulates the operations of the printing unit and the deodorizing unit, adjusting the suction of the deodorizing unit based on various factors such as printing operations, input print data, and user interactions.
Potential Applications: - Printing industry for odor control during UV curable ink printing processes. - Commercial printing services for improved air quality in printing facilities.
Problems Solved: - Elimination of unpleasant odors associated with UV curable ink printing. - Enhanced user experience by reducing exposure to harmful fumes.
Benefits: - Improved air quality in printing environments. - Increased comfort for users and operators. - Enhanced printing efficiency and productivity.
Commercial Applications: - Printing companies looking to enhance their printing processes with odor control technology. - Manufacturers of printing equipment seeking to improve user experience and safety.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the deodorizing unit effectively remove odors generated by the UV curable ink? 2. What are the potential long-term health benefits of implementing this odor control system in printing operations?
Original Abstract Submitted
a printing system includes a printing unit that includes a printing head configured to discharge uv curable ink from a plurality of nozzles to a medium and is configured to execute printing, a deodorizing unit configured to suck odor generated from the uv curable ink, and a control unit configured to control the printing unit and the deodorizing unit. the control unit controls suction by the deodorizing unit according to any one of an operation of the printing unit, print data input from outside for printing, and an operation on the printing unit by a user.
