Logic circuitry package

A logic circuitry package for a replaceable print apparatus component includes an interface to communicate with a print apparatus logic circuit, and at least one logic circuit to transmit, via the interface, a sensor ID parameter and a limit parameter, the sensor ID parameter indicating a first sensor ID. The logic circuit is to receive, via the interface, a first request corresponding to the first sensor ID with the component connected to the apparatus and the apparatus not pneumatically actuating the component. The logic circuit is to transmit, via the interface, a first digital value in response to the first request. The logic circuit is to receive, via the interface, a second request corresponding to the first sensor ID with the component connected to the apparatus and the apparatus pneumatically actuating the component. The logic circuit is to transmit, via the interface, a second digital value in response to the second request. A difference between the first digital value and the second digital value is greater than the limit parameter.

Liquid discharge apparatus, imprint apparatus and part manufacturing method

A liquid discharge apparatus comprises a head including a discharge port surface, a first reservoir that stores the liquid to be supplied to the head, a flexible member, separating an inner space of the first reservoir into a first chamber that stores the liquid and a second chamber that stores an operation liquid, a second reservoir communicating with the second chamber, the second reservoir storing the operation liquid to be supplied to the second chamber, the second reservoir being disposed in such a manner that a liquid surface of the operation liquid stored in the second reservoir is positioned below the discharge port surface, and an adjustment unit that performs adjustment in such a manner that a position of the liquid surface of the operation liquid in the second reservoir falls within a predetermined range in a state where the second reservoir is opened to atmosphere.

A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a liquid ejecting head that ejects a liquid supplied from a liquid supplier which has an engaging portion, a container that has an engaging-portion-receiving portion with which the engaging portion engages, and an attaching portion to which the container is detachably attached. The liquid supplier is detachably attached to the attaching portion with movement of the container in a state where the engaging portion has engaged with the engaging-portion-receiving portion. The engaging portion engages with the engaging-portion-receiving portion to be relatively movable in a direction which crosses a movement path of the container when the container is attached to the attaching portion.

Liquid ejecting apparatus and method for controlling liquid ejecting apparatus

A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a liquid ejection head that ejects a liquid, a supply flow path that supplies the liquid from a liquid containing portion, which is replaceable and contains the liquid, to the liquid ejection head, a liquid feeding portion that is provided in the supply flow path and is configured to suck the liquid from the liquid containing portion and to feed the liquid to the liquid ejection head, and a control unit that controls driving of the liquid feeding portion. The control unit changes driving control of the liquid feeding portion in accordance with a remaining amount of the liquid in the liquid containing portion.

Liquid management system

A liquid management system for supplying or receiving liquid at a controlled pressure, comprising: a closed reservoir having an inlet for receiving liquid from a first remote location and an outlet for supplying liquid to a second remote location; and a pumped outlet disposed in the reservoir and arranged to remove liquid and gas contained within the reservoir, the pumped outlet being disposed such that the level of liquid in the reservoir can be maintained at a constant height.

LIQUID DISCHARGE DEVICE

Aspects of a disclosure relates to a liquid discharge device enables previously disabled liquid discharge through a head after a cartridge including a first liquid chamber is replaced and before the liquid level in a second liquid chamber of a tank reaches a predetermined level or higher. Another aspect of the disclosure relates to a liquid discharge device that deactivates an alarm after a cartridge including a first liquid chamber is replaced and before the liquid level in a second liquid reaches a predetermined level or higher.

LIQUID CARTRIDGE AND LIQUID EJECTION APPARATUS
20230173817 · 2023-06-08 ·

A liquid cartridge includes: a valve unit configured to be movable to a position to close the atmosphere communication hole and a position to open the atmosphere communication hole; and a lever configured to fix the valve unit to the position to close the atmosphere communication hole by pressing the valve unit and configured to be capable of moving the valve unit to the position to open the atmosphere communication hole by removing the pressing against the valve unit, wherein the lever is configured to remove the pressing against the valve unit by moving in a direction intersecting a direction in which the valve unit moves.

Mixer Apparatus and System

A mixer system for use with a non-contact liquid printer comprises: a printing liquid reservoir (103) and an expansion volume (105); and an aspirator element (111; 311; 411), configured to reduce the pressure in the expansion volume (105), thereby to displace printing liquid (L) from the reservoir (103) to the expansion volume (105), and restore the pressure in the expansion volume (105), thereby to return the printing liquid (L) to the reservoir (103) so as to mix the printing liquid (L) therein.
