After print cartridge 100 loads on ink-jet printer word car, circuit on IC chip 103 and the power supply on ink-jet printer are connected, and the light that the light emitting diode on IC chip 103 is excited to send is imported in the light-guiding pillar 104 be arranged on sidewall 109.After light enters light-guiding pillar 104, by being transmitted to the end that light-guiding pillar 104 is covered by handle 110 after multiple total reflection, through being appeared by the window 105 that handle 110 is arranged after this distal portion light is by the final reflective surface in light-guiding pillar 104, and receive by the optical receiver of ink-jet printer inside, thus identification and confirmation print cartridge 100 are properly installed.
But, in the production and use procedure of print cartridge 100, the reflecting effect of light-guiding pillar 104 often can be caused bad due to the difference of material, so that the light appeared from window 105 is more weak, or because light-guiding pillar 104 is contaminated in use procedure, and the impaired situation such as to break of light-guiding pillar 104 in transportation, light-guiding pillar 104 all can be caused to lose light transmition function, cause ink-jet printer identification whether not to be properly installed in word car with confirmation print cartridge 100, form the defective mounting of print cartridge.
Summary of the invention
In order to overcome the problems referred to above, the object of the invention is to provide a kind of cartridge of ink-jet printer.This print cartridges structure is simple, and it accurately, reliably can install recognition function for ink-jet printer provides.
According to the cartridge of ink-jet printer of above-mentioned purpose design, comprise lid, box body and photophore.Box body is equipped with IC chip.Photophore and IC chip electric connection.
Aforementioned cartridge of ink-jet printer, its photophore is light emitting diode.
Aforementioned cartridge of ink-jet printer, its photophore is fixed on bracket.Bracket is fixed on lid.
Aforementioned cartridge of ink-jet printer, its lid is provided with the handle reached outside box body.Photophore is covered by handle.Handle corresponds to the position of photophore and offers the light allowing photophore to send and appear window to handle.
Aforementioned cartridge of ink-jet printer, is provided with concentration piece in its window.
Cartridge of ink-jet printer of the present invention, causes ink-jet printer can not identification and confirm the problem that whether has been properly installed of print cartridge for existing print cartridge because its light-guiding pillar loses light transmition function, self box body is provided with photophore.IC chip electric connection on this photophore and box body.Under this make, after print cartridge is encased in ink-jet printer, IC chip connects the power supply of ink-jet printer inside, and then powers to photophore and lighted.The light that photophore sends injects ink-jet printer inside, receive by the optical receiver of ink-jet printer inside, and then make the judgement that print cartridge is properly installed.This make, because directly adopting photophore institute isolychn as the signal source of ink-jet printer, compare existing print cartridge using the light through conducting as the mode of ink-jet printer signal source, its signal has higher efficiency of transmission because decreasing conduction link, and the anxiety of light conduction they deteriorate without existing print cartridge, therefore not only structure is simple for print cartridge of the present invention, can also provide accurately, the recognition function of print cartridge installation reliably for ink-jet printer.
