PRINTING DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18630094 titled 'PRINTING DEVICE
The abstract of the patent application describes a printing device that includes a printing section for ejecting liquid onto a medium, a heat source for heating the liquid, a blower machine for blowing gas toward the medium, and an air flow path surrounding the heat source and sound absorbing materials.
- The printing device has a printing section that ejects liquid onto a medium.
- A heat source is used to heat the liquid deposited on the medium.
- A blower machine blows gas toward the medium.
- An air flow path surrounds the heat source and sound absorbing materials.
- The air flow path is arranged on an inner surface of the air flow path.
Potential Applications: - This technology can be used in various printing applications where precise control of liquid deposition and heating is required. - It can be utilized in industries such as textile printing, 3D printing, and industrial printing.
Problems Solved: - Provides a solution for controlling the deposition and heating of liquid in printing processes. - Helps in achieving consistent and high-quality printing results.
Benefits: - Improved control over liquid deposition and heating. - Enhanced printing quality and efficiency. - Reduction in printing errors and wastage of materials.
Commercial Applications: - This technology can be commercially applied in the textile industry for fabric printing, in the manufacturing sector for 3D printing, and in the packaging industry for custom printing solutions.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the air flow path surrounding the heat source contribute to the efficiency of the printing device? 2. What are the potential cost savings associated with using this printing device in industrial applications?
Original Abstract Submitted
A printing device includes a printing section configured to eject liquid to a medium ; a heat source configured to generate heat for heating the liquid deposited to the medium ; a blower machine configured to blow gas toward the medium ; and an air flow path in which the blower machine is provided and in which the gas flows, wherein the air flow path is provided so as to surround the heat source and sound absorbing materials and is arranged on an inner surface of the air flow path
