Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0805031A1] An eyelid assembly (1) is precisely aligned to a catcher (3) in a continuous ink jet printhead (10). An eyelid linkage mechanism (4) associated with the eyelid assembly (1), fastens to the ink jet printhead to provide pivot areas that allow the eyelid assembly to rotate in and out of the catcher (3). A fixture precisely holds and locates the eyelid linkage mechanism to accurately register the eyelid assembly to the catcher. The accurately registered eyelid linkage mechanism is then bonded to the printhead frame, and the eyelid assembly (1) can be secured to the eyelid linkage mechanism (4) using a pivot pin (7). <IMAGE>
