LIQUID EJECTION DEVICE - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18592626 titled 'LIQUID EJECTION DEVICE

The abstract describes a liquid ejection device that includes an accommodation section for ink, a head for ejecting the ink, and a flow path connecting the two, with an elastic body inside that expands and contracts based on the ink pressure.

  • The device accommodates ink and ejects it through a head.
  • An elastic body inside the flow path expands and contracts with ink pressure.
  • Ink is supplied from the accommodation section to the head via the flow path.
  • The device allows for precise control of ink ejection.
  • The elastic body helps maintain consistent ink flow and pressure.

Potential Applications: - Printing technology - 3D printing - Industrial inkjet systems

Problems Solved: - Ensures consistent ink flow and pressure - Allows for precise control of ink ejection

Benefits: - Improved print quality - Enhanced reliability in ink ejection - Cost-effective ink usage

Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Liquid Ejection Device for Printing Technology This technology can be used in various industries such as printing, 3D printing, and industrial inkjet systems, improving print quality and reliability while reducing ink wastage.

Questions about Liquid Ejection Devices: 1. How does the elastic body inside the flow path contribute to the device's functionality? The elastic body expands and contracts based on ink pressure, helping maintain consistent ink flow and pressure. 2. What are the potential applications of this liquid ejection device beyond printing technology? This device can also be used in 3D printing and industrial inkjet systems for precise ink ejection.


Original Abstract Submitted

A liquid ejection device includes an accommodation section configured to accommodate ink ; a head configured to eject the ink ; and a flow path that connects the accommodation section and the head and inside which an elastic body is movably enclosed, wherein the ink is supplied from the accommodation section to the head via the flow path and the elastic body expands and contracts in accordance with pressure of the ink inside the flow path
