Patent EP-1336498-A1 (EP)
Inventor: NISHIOKA ATSUSHI
IPC: B41J2/175
Filed: 2003-02-13
Abstract: An ink tank of the foam type which is provided with a
detected portion capable of exactly and surely detecting the
amount of ink used by the printer or remaining in the ink tank.
The ink tank includes a sub ink chamber that is diposed or formed
between a main ink chamber and an ink outlet of an ink tank of
a foam type. When an amount of air flowing into the sub ink chamber
increases, one or more reflecting surfaces of a right-angled prism,
which function as ink interfaces, resume their original function
of reflecting surfaces, thereby enabling the detection of an ink
end. Air bubbles having entered the sub ink chamber are surely
led onto the one or more reflecting surfaces by a bubble storage
part. At an ink passage having a narrow width, which is defined
by the one or more reflecting surfaces, air bubbles are pressed
against the one or more reflecting surfaces to be put to a crushed
state and in surface contact with the latter. Air bubbles are
surely led onto the one or more reflecting surfaces, and are
crushed and pressed against the reflecting surfaces. This
configuration prevents the one or more reflecting surfaces from
being covered with ink retained in spaces among the air bubbles.
Therefore, the ink end can be detected surely and exactly.

Abstract: The rigid balloon has a chamber to hold lighter-than-air gas portions to
retain a structural member or members and a separate light gas is filled into the
chamber through a valve in the balloon. Structural members are inserted into
the portion to help retain the desired shape of the balloon. The structural
members also provide a counterbalancing weight which prevents the balloon
from floating upward. Thus, the balloon, once released into the air, will retain
its shape and remain floating at the height from which it was released unless
repositioned.
