Claims (2)

  1. Ein Tintenstrahlstift, der ein Tintenstrahlreservoir, einen Tintenstrahl-Dünnfilmdruckkopf und ein Steigrohr umfaßt, das das Reservoir und den Druckkopf verbindet, und das einen Luftansammlungsabschnitt am Tinte empfangenden Ende benachbart zum Reservoir aufweist, wobei der Abschnitt einen Radius r aufweist, dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß der Druckkopf mit einer Öffnungsplatte mit Öffnungen mit dem Radius rDüse versehen ist, und daß der Radius r des Luftansammlungsabschnittes derart ist, daß die Gleichung r/rDüse > 100 erfüllt ist, wodurch Luftblasen in dem Steigrohr zurückbleiben, wenn der Druckkopf in Betrieb ist, und wobei die Luftblasen durch die Ansaugkraft, die durch den Druckkopf erzeugt wird, verformt werden, und es ermöglichen, daß Tinte durch das Steigrohr zwischen den Luftblasen und den Wänden des Steigrohres vorbeiläuft, so daß der Tintenstrahlstift in die Lage versetzt wird, kontinuierlich ohne bedeutende Fehldrucke aufgrund einer Blockierung durch Blasen arbeitet.
  2. Ein Verfahren zur Führung von Tinte an einen Tintenstrahldruckkopf ohne Fehldrucke des Druckkopfes, mittels eines Steigrohrs, das zwischen einem Tintenstrahlreservoir und dem Druckkopf befestigt ist, das einen Luftansammlungsabschnitt an dem Tinte-empfangenden Ende des Steigrohres aufweist, das benachbart zu dem Reservoir angeordnet ist und das mit einem Radius r versehen ist, gekennzeichnet durch folgende Schritte: Versehen des Druckkopfes mit einer Öffnungsplatte, die Öffnungen mit dem Radius rDüse aufweist, derart, daß die Gleichung r/rDüse > 100 erfüllt ist, Einführen von Luftblasen in das Steigrohr, und Verformen der Luftblasen durch die Ansaugkraft des Druckkopfes mit einer Größe, die ausreichend ist, um es zu ermöglichen, daß die Tinte zwischen den verformten Blasen und den inneren Wänden des Steigrohres läuft.
