LIQUID EJECTING APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240227403 titled 'LIQUID EJECTING APPARATUS
The liquid ejecting apparatus described in the patent application consists of 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 a container for the liquid received by the recovery unit. The discharge unit transfers the liquid to the container, and the liquid receptacle, located below the discharge unit, includes grooves in different directions to collect the liquid.
- Liquid ejecting apparatus with a recovery unit to maintain performance.
- Housing for a container to hold liquid received by the recovery unit.
- Discharge unit to transfer liquid to the container.
- Liquid receptacle with grooves to collect liquid in different directions.
- Casing housing the components of the apparatus.
Potential Applications: - Printing technology - Industrial manufacturing processes - Medical equipment
Problems Solved: - Maintains liquid ejection performance - Efficient recovery and disposal of liquid - Prevents wastage of liquid
Benefits: - Improved efficiency in liquid handling - Cost-effective maintenance of liquid ejection systems - Enhanced performance and reliability
