Abstract (en)

[origin: US5883652A] The device comprises a cylinder (1) which is filled less than half with ink (2). In its initial state, there is directly above ink (2) a piston (3) with piston rod (4) and handle (5). At the lower end there is arranged at the cylinder (1) a hollow needle (6) with a sealing ring (7). For re-filling of a print head (10) its nozzle openings (11) are sealed and needle (6) is adjusted through an opening of lid (13) up to sealing abutment of ring (7). The piston (3) is pulled up and the air from the print head (10) is thereby suctioned through the ink (2). As a result of the negative pressure, the ink (2) is then suctioned into head (10). The device has a simple design.
