Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0736387A1] The device comprises a manually-operated device (7) for generating vacuum cycles, connectible to the various outlets (3) of the ink-injection nozzles by means of flexible pipes (6, 26) kept permanently closed by means of manual gripping devices which are released individually in order to transmit a vacuum cycle to the nozzle in which a restoration cycle is to be carried out by suction. The vacuum-cycle generator is constituted by a resilient bellows (7) which can receive a manual compression opposed by a spring (8), and which is connected to a distributor (19) from which the flexible pipes extend towards each nozzle outlet (3). Application is for recovering the operation of blocked nozzles in ink-jet printing devices. <IMAGE>
