  • Measuring system in a fluid circuit of a continuous inkjet printer, related fluid circuit and block designed to implement said measuring system
    Patent number: 9102157
    Abstract: The invention concerns a measuring system in a fluid circuit of a continuous inkjet printer. According to the invention, a system for measuring the quantity of ink is realized using a continuous sensor (15) equipping a measuring tank (12), which is first emptied then connected by communicating vessel with an intermediate tank (11) storing the ink which, pressurized, supplies the printing head and The measuring system advantageously constitutes a multifunctional system since it makes it possible, using a dedicated constant level tank (13) communicating with the intermediate tank (11) and also by communicating vessel with the measuring tank (12), to measure the viscosity of the ink and the correction thereof if necessary by adding solvent from a dedicated solvent tank (14).
