Description

Translated fromChinese
一种静电式喷墨打印机喷头及其制备方法A nozzle of an electrostatic inkjet printer and a preparation method thereof

技术领域technical field

本发明属于微机电系统制造技术领域,尤其涉及一种静电式喷墨打印机喷头及其制备方法。The invention belongs to the technical field of micro-electromechanical system manufacturing, and in particular relates to an electrostatic ink-jet printer nozzle and a preparation method thereof.

背景技术Background technique

微滴喷射打印技术是一种通过一定的挤压方式产生墨水腔室与外界之间的压力差,导致喷嘴内部压力大于外界压力,进而将墨水推出喷嘴产生微小墨滴的一种打印技术。Droplet jet printing technology is a printing technology that generates a pressure difference between the ink chamber and the outside world through a certain extrusion method, causing the internal pressure of the nozzle to be greater than the external pressure, and then pushing the ink out of the nozzle to produce tiny ink droplets.

静电式喷墨打印头中,墨水能够通过主墨道直接流向各个压力腔之中,使得主墨道与各个压力腔之间的压力差较小,使墨水从主墨道进入腔室的驱动力就会较小,从而导致腔室内的墨水容易出现回流和串扰的情况。In the electrostatic inkjet print head, ink can flow directly into each pressure chamber through the main ink channel, so that the pressure difference between the main ink channel and each pressure chamber is small, and the driving force for ink to enter the chamber from the main ink channel will be smaller, causing the ink in the chamber to be prone to backflow and crosstalk.

第一硅基片1具有进液通道11和喷嘴12,若干喷嘴12能够组成喷液通路,且喷液通路阵列位于第一硅基片1与第二硅基片2的键合面之间。Thefirst silicon substrate 1 has aliquid inlet channel 11 andnozzles 12 ,several nozzles 12 can form a liquid spraying channel, and the liquid spraying channel array is located between the bonding surfaces of thefirst silicon substrate 1 and thesecond silicon substrate 2 .

第二硅基片2的下表面还具有连通进液通道11的储液池21和设置在储液池21内的限制墨水回流的限流部22。The lower surface of thesecond silicon substrate 2 also has aliquid reservoir 21 communicating with theliquid inlet channel 11 and aflow limiting portion 22 arranged in theliquid reservoir 21 to restrict ink backflow.

如图4所示,限流部22将储液池21分隔成进液区200与喷液区201,限流部22上还具有连通进液区200与喷液区201的限流通道202,液体通过进液通道11进入储液池21进液区,在通过限流部22内的限流通道202流向喷液区201,最后液体通过喷嘴12从喷液区201离开。As shown in FIG. 4 , theflow limiting part 22 divides theliquid reservoir 21 into aliquid inlet area 200 and aliquid spraying area 201 , and theflow limiting part 22 also has aflow limiting channel 202 connecting theliquid inlet area 200 and theliquid spraying area 201 . The liquid enters the liquid inlet area of theliquid reservoir 21 through theliquid inlet channel 11 , flows to theliquid spray area 201 through theflow limiting channel 202 in theflow restricting part 22 , and finally the liquid leaves from theliquid spray area 201 through thenozzle 12 .

在打印机喷头工作时,固定电极31接受到电压,振动膜片23在静电力作用下向上弯曲,吸入墨水;然后固定电极31电压消失,振动膜片23复位,挤压墨水喷出,在墨水挤出后,切割头开始工作,在墨滴速度达到最大时,利用逆压电效应,使切割头形变推挤喷嘴12切割墨滴,避免卫星墨滴的产生;墨滴喷出后,切割头打开,开始下一轮墨滴的喷出。When the printer nozzle is working, the fixedelectrode 31 receives the voltage, and the vibratingdiaphragm 23 bends upward under the action of electrostatic force to absorb ink; then the voltage of the fixedelectrode 31 disappears, the vibratingdiaphragm 23 resets, and the ink is extruded out. After the ink drop is ejected, the cutting head starts to work. When the ink drop speed reaches the maximum, the inverse piezoelectric effect is used to deform the cutting head and push thenozzle 12 to cut the ink drop, so as to avoid the generation of satellite ink drop; after the ink drop is ejected, the cutting head opens , start the next round of ink drop ejection.

本实例的静电式喷墨打印机喷头在传统喷墨打印机喷头的基础上,增加了切割头,避免了墨滴在喷射过程中产生长尾柱,可以有效的控制墨滴的体积,提高墨滴喷出速度;同时设计了锯齿状限流部,通过多重限流柱阻止墨水回流,降低了喷嘴之间的串扰,在工艺允许的情况下可以进一步减小喷头尺寸,使喷头的排列更加紧密。The nozzle of the electrostatic inkjet printer in this example is based on the nozzle of the traditional inkjet printer, and a cutting head is added to avoid the long tail column of the ink drop during the spraying process, which can effectively control the volume of the ink drop and improve the ink droplet spraying rate. At the same time, a sawtooth-shaped restrictor is designed to prevent the ink from flowing back through multiple restrictors, reducing the crosstalk between nozzles. If the process allows, the size of the nozzle can be further reduced to make the arrangement of the nozzle more compact.

本实施例阵列式喷液通路中的喷液通路的数量不限于实施例一所示的数量,还可以根据实际应用需求进行增加或减少。The number of liquid spraying channels in the arrayed liquid spraying channels of this embodiment is not limited to the number shown inEmbodiment 1, and can also be increased or decreased according to actual application requirements.
