LIQUID DISCHARGE APPARATUS AND LIQUID STORAGE CONTAINER - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18064145 titled 'LIQUID DISCHARGE APPARATUS AND LIQUID STORAGE CONTAINER
Simplified Explanation
The patent application describes a liquid discharge apparatus that includes a liquid discharge head and a liquid storage container. The liquid storage container has different components to store and guide the liquid.
- The liquid discharge head is responsible for discharging liquid onto a medium.
- The liquid storage container consists of a reservoir portion, a liquid injection portion, a liquid holding unit, and a liquid guide portion.
- The reservoir portion stores the liquid that is supplied to the liquid discharge head.
- The liquid injection portion allows a container to inject the liquid into the reservoir portion in a specific direction.
- The liquid holding unit is located away from the liquid injection portion and can hold the liquid.
- The liquid guide portion directs the liquid from the injection portion to the holding unit in a different direction.
Potential applications of this technology:
- Inkjet printers or other printing devices that require precise liquid discharge.
- Medical devices that need to deliver fluids accurately.
- Industrial machinery that involves liquid dispensing or coating processes.
Problems solved by this technology:
- Provides a controlled and efficient way to store and discharge liquid.
- Ensures accurate and precise delivery of liquid to the desired location.
- Prevents leakage or wastage of liquid during the storage and discharge process.
Benefits of this technology:
- Improved accuracy and precision in liquid discharge.
- Reduced waste and cost associated with liquid usage.
- Enhanced reliability and efficiency in various applications involving liquid dispensing.
Original Abstract Submitted
A liquid discharge apparatus includes a liquid discharge head to discharge liquid to a medium and a liquid storage container. The liquid storage container includes a reservoir portion, a liquid injection portion, a liquid holding unit, and a liquid guide portion. The reservoir portion reserves the liquid that is supplied to the liquid discharge head. The liquid injection portion allows a liquid injection container for injecting the liquid into the reservoir portion to be inserted in the liquid injection portion in a first direction. The liquid holding unit is provided at a position spaced apart from the liquid injection portion and is capable of holding the liquid. The liquid guide portion guides the liquid from the liquid injection portion to the liquid holding unit in a second direction intersecting with the first direction.
