Background technology
Ink-jet printer is common printer, for modern office provides great convenience.Ink-jet printer uses the print cartridge that accommodates ink to spray ink as consumable container to paper, to form the word or the pattern that need printing on paper.
Referring to Fig. 1, existing a kind of color inkjet printer has casing 11, and the ink-jet printer shown in Fig. 1 has omitted the supporting plate of casing 11.In casing 11, be provided with the movement 12 of ink-jet printer, and be provided with a slide bar 20, print word car 14 and move back and forth along slide bar 20 under the drive of motor (invisible in Fig. 1).Print in word car 14 and be provided with keyset (invisible in Fig. 1), keyset is electrically connected with movement 12 by winding displacement 13.Print word car 14 and there is cavity, multiple print cartridges 15 are removably installed in cavity, in different print cartridges 15, accommodate the ink of different colours.
Referring to Fig. 2, print cartridge 15 has housing 16, and housing 16 surrounds the cavity that holds ink, and the lower end of cavity is provided with ink outlet port 17, and the ink in cavity flows out by ink outlet port 17, and to the confession tattooing needle ink supply of printing word car 14.
On the outer wall of print cartridge 15 housings 16, chip piece 18 is installed, chip 18 has substrate, and a side of substrate is provided with multiple electric contacts 19, and for being electrically connected with keyset, and electric contact 19 comprises multiple communication contacts and two detection contacts.The opposite side of substrate is provided with the electronic module (invisible in Fig. 2) being electrically connected with electric contact 19.
Referring to Fig. 3, electronic module is provided with memory 21 and control module 22, and control module 22 receives by communication contact the signal that ink-jet printer sends, and judges the order of these signal representatives, and the while operates accordingly according to command execution, as read and write data etc.
Memory 21 stores the information relevant to print cartridge, comprise variable information and fixed information, variable information is the information constantly changing with printing meeting, as information such as ink surplus, printing durations, fixed information is the information that can not change with printing, as print cartridge model, applicable ink-jet printer model, ink color etc.
More existing print cartridges arrange piezoelectric transducer at ink outlet port 17 places, and piezoelectric transducer is connected with detection contact, and receives the signal of telecommunication that ink-jet printer sends.
Print cartridge 15 is installed to after the printing word car 14 of ink-jet printer, ink-jet printer powers on to chip 18, namely by communication contact to electronic module transmitted signal, and read the data that are stored in chip 18 memories 21, judge whether print cartridge 15 models are suitable, whether the interior residual ink amount of print cartridge 15 is sufficient etc.Only have and judge in the suitable and print cartridge 15 of print cartridge 15 models have after sufficient ink, ink-jet printer could be carried out print job.
Ink-jet printer, carrying out after a printing, will calculate the remaining quantity of ink of print cartridge 15, and the ink surplus data of renewal will be written in memory 21.Therefore, ink-jet printer need to be in each ink surplus data that read chip 18 interior storages before carrying out printing, have sufficient ink to determine in print cartridge.
In addition, the detection contact that ink-jet printer also passes through chip 18 is to the piezoelectric transducer output AC signal of telecommunication, because piezoelectric transducer is receiving after ac signal and will shake and produce the signal of certain frequency of oscillation, in the time that piezoelectric transducer shakes in air, frequency of oscillation is higher, and frequency of oscillation is lower while shaking in liquid.Therefore, while having ink in ink outlet port 17, the frequency of oscillation of piezoelectric transducer is lower, and when ink outlet port 17 does not have ink, the frequency of oscillation of piezoelectric transducer is higher.Ink-jet printer further judges in print cartridge whether have sufficient ink to carry out printing by detecting piezoelectric transducer.And, when ink-jet printer, judge when the frequency of oscillation of piezoelectric transducer is higher, will send alarm signal, prompting user changes print cartridge.
