Patent ID: 11850389

Abstract:
A unit for supplying ink to the needles of a tattooing device includes a handling unit, in which the following can be found: a grip; a removable tip provided at one end with one or more tattooing needles; a coupling element configured to connect the grip and the tip to each other; a driver operatively associated with the grip to move the needles by imparting a reciprocating rectilinear motion to them; one or more tanks for containing the ink, operatively associated with the handling unit. The ink supply unit includes an air movement unit driven by the driver and mechanically connected to the handling unit. The air movement unit is configured to push the air moved by the driver toward the tank, the tank for containing the ink communicating with the air movement unit by a valve. Once conveyed into the tank by the valve, the air forces the ink to be dispensed from the tank onto the needles.
