INKJET PRINTING APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD OF THE INKJET PRINTING APPARATUS

According to an aspect of the present invention, an inkjet printing apparatus includes a print head having an ejection opening surface on which ejection openings for ejecting ink are formed, a tank storing ink to be supplied to the print head, a supply flow path for supplying the ink from the tank to the print head, a collection flow path for collecting the ink from the print head to the tank, a supply pump provided in the supply flow path to supply the ink from the tank to the print head, a tank decompression pump which decompresses the inside of the tank, and a control unit which controls to drive the supply pump and the tank decompression pump to fill the collection flow path with ink.

Method and Arrangement for Calibrating a Delivery Rate of an Ink Pump of a Printing Device

A method and an arrangement for calibrating a delivery rate of an ink pump of a printing device with the aid of an ink container including a sensor unit for detecting at least a first fill level value. Based on the initial fill level of the ink container below the first fill level value, the ink pump conveys ink from an ink reservoir into the ink container up to a final fill level above the first fill level value, so that at least a predetermined volume between the initial fill level and the first fill level value is filled. Upon conveying the ink into the ink container, an ink pump parameter is determined as of reaching the initial fill level and until the first fill level value is reached. A delivery rate of the ink pump is determined based on the predetermined volume and the ink pump parameter.

Printing devices and liquid level depth detection method

A printing device includes a main control board, a resin vat, a vibration generating assembly, a detection assembly and a support plate. The vibration generating assembly includes a drive component and a paddle. A drive end of the drive component is connected to the paddle, and the drive end is configured to drive the paddle to vibrate. The detection assembly includes an elastic sheet, a resistance strain gage and a detection circuit. The resistance strain gage is attached to the elastic sheet, a first end of the elastic sheet is arranged on the first face of the support plate, and a second end of the elastic sheet extends into the liquid to be detected. The detection circuit is configured to determine an output voltage according to a resistance value of the resistance strain gage. Automatic detection of the liquid level depth of the liquid to be detected is achieving.
