Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Tintenpatrone, die in einen Tintenstrahldrucker bzw. eine diesem zugeordnete Patronenaufnahme einsetzbar ist, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruches 1. Dabei sei erwähnt, daß die Patronenaufnahme in der Regel Teil eines innerhalb des Druckers hin- und herbeweglich gelagerten Schlittens ist.The present invention relates to an ink cartridge which can be used in an ink jet printer or a cartridge receptacle associated therewith, according to the preamble of
Derartige Tintenpatronen sind allgemein bekannt, wobei nur beispielhaft auf die
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, die vorgenannten Probleme zu lösen, d.h. eine Tintenpatrone zur Verfügung zu stellen, die selbst bei größeren Produktionstoleranzen eine exakte Ausrichtung der patronenspezifischen Kontakte mit den druckerspezifischen Kontakten gewährleistet.The present invention has for its object to solve the above problems, ie to provide an ink cartridge available, which ensures an exact alignment of the cartridge-specific contacts with the printer-specific contacts even with larger production tolerances.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die kennzeichnenden Maßnahmen des Anspruches 1 gelöst, wobei vorteilhafte Ausführungsformen und konstruktive Details in den Unteransprüchen beschrieben sind.This object is achieved by the characterizing measures of
Erfindungsgemäß ist also die Platine etwas breiter gestaltet und gemäß einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform so auf eine etwas schmalere Tintenpatrone montiert, daß die Platine sich unmittelbar selbst in der Führung des Druckers bzw. der Patronenaufnahme auf die druckerspezifischen Kontakte ausrichten kann, und zwar unabhängig von Produktionstoleranzen der Patrone. Auf diese Weise ist ausschließlich der Spielraum zwischen Platinenbreite einerseits und Breite der zugeordneten Führung im Drucker andererseits maßgebend. Die Halterung der Platine ist so gestaltet, daß diese sich auf beide Seiten hin etwas verschieben läßt, d.h. quer zur Patronen-Einsetzrichtung bzw. quer zur Längserstreckung der zugeordneten Patronenwand, insbesondere Stirnwand.Thus, according to the invention, the board is made somewhat wider and, according to an advantageous embodiment, mounted on a slightly narrower ink cartridge so that the board can directly align itself with the printer or cartridge receptacle on the printer-specific contacts, regardless of the cartridge's production tolerances , In this way, only the margin between board width on the one hand and width of the associated guide in the printer on the other hand is decisive. The holder of the board is designed so that it can be moved slightly on both sides, i. transverse to the cartridge insertion direction or transversely to the longitudinal extent of the associated cartridge wall, in particular end wall.
Um die Selbstjustierung der Platine zusätzlich zu erleichtern, sind zumindest die unteren Ecken der Platine etwas abgeschrägt. Dies gilt insbesondere für Platinen mit rechteckigem Umriß.In order to facilitate the self-adjustment of the board in addition, at least the lower corners of the board are slightly bevelled. This is especially true for boards with a rectangular outline.
Im weiteren sind die elektrischen Kontakte auf der Platine streifenförmig in Einsetzrichtung gestaltet, so daß auch allfällige Produktionstoleranzen in Einsetzrichtung kompensiert werden. Auf diese Weise ist sichergestellt, daß die Tintenpatrone auch ohne Rasthaken sicher kontaktiert. Die elektrischen Kontaktstreifen sind so schmal, daß es nicht möglich ist, daß die Elektronik in einer falschen Höhe mit einem falschen Kontakt im Drucker oder in der Patronenaufnahme eine elektrische Verbindung entstehen läßt.Furthermore, the electrical contacts on the board are designed strip-shaped in the insertion direction, so that any production tolerances are compensated in the insertion direction. In this way, it is ensured that the ink cartridge securely contacted even without latching hook. The electrical contact strips are so narrow that it is not possible that the electronics at an incorrect height with an incorrect contact in the printer or in the cartridge receptacle creates an electrical connection.
Nachstehend wird eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform einer erfindungsgemäß ausgebildeten Tintenpatrone anhand der beigefügten Zeichnung näher erläutert. Diese zeigt in:
Die Tintenpatrone 10 in den
Auch hier handelt es sich un eine an sich bekannte Maßnahme.Again, it is un a known measure.
Wie den
Die an der der Patrone 10 abgewandten Seite der Platine angeordneten elektrischen Kontakte bzw. Kontaktstreifen 20 erstrecken sich parallel zueinander und parallel zur Längserstreckung der zugeordneten Stirnwand 12 bzw. parallel zur Einsetzrichtung 11. Sie sind so lang ausgeführt, daß ein elektrischer Kontakt auch ohne Verrastung der Patrone innerhalb der Aufnahme sichergestellt ist, und zwar selbst dann, wenn die dem Drucker bzw. der Patronenaufnahme zugeordneten Kontakte hinsichtlich ihrer Höhe relativ zueinander versetzt sind.The arranged on the side facing away from the
Aufgrund der Querbeweglichkeit der die elektrischen Kontakte tragenden Platine 21 ist es nicht mehr erforderlich, die Tintenpatrone zumindest hinsichtlich ihrer Breite exakt zu fertigen. Es können auch Tintenpatronen mit größeren Fertigungstoleranzen verwendet werden. Die Platine 21 verschiebt sich beim Einsetzen der Tintenpatrone in die zugeordnete Aufnahme selbsttätig in die richtige Position.Due to the transverse mobility of the electrical
Es ist auch noch denkbar, zumindest die unteren Ecken der Platine 21 zusätzlich zu verrunden, um die Selbstjustierung der Platine 21 dadurch zusätzlich zu erleichtern.It is also conceivable, in addition to round at least the lower corners of the
Die gegenüber der Platine 21 geringere Breite des der Platine 21 zugeordneten Abschnitts 12' der vorderen Stirnwand 12 wird zum Beispiel wie bei der dargestellten Ausführungsform dadurch erreicht, daß die Längskanten 25, 26 nach innen verlegt, d.h. eingezogen ausgebildet sind. Damit ist gewährleistet, daß die beiden Längsränder der Platine 21 über die erwähnten Längskanten 25, 26 seitlich vorstehen. Somit ist sichergestellt, daß beim Einsetzen der Patrone in die Patronenaufnahme in Richtung des Pfeiles 11 an der vorderen Stirnwand 12 zunächst die Platine 21 in Eingriff mit der zugeordneten Führung der Patronenaufnahme kommt und sich gegenüber dieser selbst ausrichtet, derart, daß die patronenspezifischen Kontakte 20 mit den zugeordneten druckerspezifischen Kontakten in Verbindung treten.The smaller width of the
Sämtliche in den Anmeldungsunterlagen offenbarten Merkmale werden als erfindungswesentlich beansprucht, soweit sie einzeln oder in Kombination gegenüber dem Stand der Technik neu sind.All disclosed in the application documents features are claimed as essential to the invention, as far as they are new individually or in combination over the prior art.
