    • A piston structure is movably mounted within a fluid chamber. Movement of the piston structure towards a faceplate causes a portion of the fluid between the piston and the faceplate to be forced out of the nozzle hole in the faceplate, forming a drop or jet of the fluid. Viscous forces that are generated by the flow of fluid along a working surface of the piston structure toward and away from the nozzle hole generate a force that resists the movement of the piston structure. This resistance force tends to slow the piston motion, and prevents the piston from contacting the faceplate. In various embodiments, the fluid chamber is defined by a cylinder structure. The piston structure moves within the cylinder structure. The cylinder structure and the faceplate define the fluid chamber. The cylinder structure and the piston structure are designed to cooperate so that the movement of the piston structure within the cylinder structure ejects fluid according to various design criteria. In various embodiments, a free space is provided between the faceplate and the piston structure at its maximum displacement towards the faceplate.
    • 活塞结构可移动地安装在流体室内。 活塞结构朝向面板的运动导致活塞和面板之间的流体的一部分被迫离开面板中的喷嘴孔,形成液体的液滴或射流。 由流体沿着活塞结构的工作表面朝向和远离喷嘴孔流动产生的粘性力产生抵抗活塞结构的运动的力。 该阻力往往会减慢活塞运动,并防止活塞接触面板。 在各种实施例中,流体室由气缸结构限定。 活塞结构在气缸结构内移动。 气缸结构和面板限定流体室。 气缸结构和活塞结构被设计成配合,使得活塞结构在气缸结构内的运动根据各种设计标准喷射流体。 在各种实施例中,在朝向面板的最大位移处,在面板和活塞结构之间提供自由空间。

    • The systems and methods of the present invention operate by magnetically driving a fluid ejector. In various exemplary embodiments, a primary coil and a secondary coil are situated in the ejector. The ejector has a movable piston usable to eject fluid through a nozzle hole. The piston may be resiliently mounted and biased to an at-rest position. A drive signal is applied to cause current to flow in the primary coil. The current flow generates a magnetic field that induces a current in the secondary coil. Either the primary coil or the secondary coil or associated with the piston and the other is associated with a fixed structure of the ejector. As a result, a magnetic force is generated that pushes the piston either toward a faceplate so that a drop of fluid is ejected through the nozzle hole in the faceplate or away from the faceplate so that fluid fills in a fluid chamber between the piston and the faceplate. When the drive signal is turned off, the piston resiliently returns to its at-rest position, thereby either refilling the ejected fluid or ejecting a drop of fluid through the nozzle hole in the faceplate. In various other embodiments, the faceplate is made of a magnetic material, such as a ferrous material, or is coated with or connected to a magnetic material. A second primary coil or a permanent magnet may be included in various other embodiments. In various embodiments, switching the direction of the current changes the magnetic force between attraction and repulsion.
    • 本发明的系统和方法通过磁驱动流体喷射器来操作。 在各种示例性实施例中,初级线圈和次级线圈位于喷射器中。 喷射器具有用于将流体喷射通过喷嘴孔的活动活塞。 活塞可以弹性安装并偏置到静止位置。 施加驱动信号以使电流在初级线圈中流动。 电流产生在次级线圈中产生电流的磁场。 初级线圈或次级线圈或与活塞相关联的线圈或者与线圈相关联的另一个线圈与喷射器的固定结构相关联。 结果,产生磁力将活塞推向面板,使得一滴液体通过面板中的喷嘴孔或离开面板喷射,使得流体填充在活塞和活塞之间的流体室中 面板。 当驱动信号关闭时,活塞弹性地返回到其静止位置,从而重新填充喷射的流体或者通过面板中的喷嘴孔喷射一滴液体。 在各种其他实施例中,面板由诸如铁类材料的磁性材料制成,或者被涂覆或连接到磁性材料。 在各种其他实施例中可以包括第二初级线圈或永磁体。 在各种实施例中,切换电流的方向改变吸引力和排斥之间的磁力。

    • An electronic drive system applies a drive signal to an electrostatically actuated device such that a resulting electric field has a constant force. In various exemplary embodiments, the electronic drive system applies a drive signal to an electrostatically actuated fluid ejector that has a piston and a faceplate including a nozzle hole. A dielectric fluid to be ejected is supplied between the piston and the faceplate. The drive signal is applied to one of the piston and the faceplate. The drive signal generates an electric field across the fluid between the piston and the faceplate. The electric field causes the piston to be electrostatically attracted towards the faceplate so that a jet or drop of fluid is ejected through the nozzle hole of the faceplate. According to exemplary embodiments, the drive signal is from a constant current source or is reduced over the course of its lifetime. Further, according to various exemplary embodiments, the drive signal is of a suitable high frequency to reduce the potential of electrochemical reactions or electrical breakdown, or both. The drive signal may also be a bi-polar drive signal to reduce the possibility of electrochemical reactions.

    • A bi-directional fluid ejector according to the systems and methods of this invention operates on the principle of electrostatic attraction. In various exemplary embodiments, the fluid ejector includes a sealed dual diaphragm arrangement, an electrode arrangement that is parallel and opposite to the sealed diaphragms, and a structure which contains the fluid to be ejected. A diaphragm chamber containing a relatively incompressible fluid is situated behind, and is sealed by, the diaphragms. At least one nozzle hole is formed in a faceplate of the ejector over one of the diaphragms. A drive signal is applied to at least one electrode of the electrode arrangement to generate an electrostatic field between the electrode and a first one of the diaphragms. The first diaphragm is attracted towards the electrode by an electrostatic force into a deformed shape due to the electrostatic field. Upon deforming, pressure is transmitted to a second one of the sealed diaphragms. The transmitted pressure and the relatively incompressible nature of the fluid contained within the sealed diaphragm chamber causes the second diaphragm to deflect in the opposite direction to force fluid through at least one of the at least one nozzle hole. After a drop is ejected, the movement is reversed, either through normal resilient restoration actions of the deformed diaphragm and/or through an applied force.
