Description

本発明はインクジェット記録装置などの記録液を使用する画像形成装置において用いられる記録液カートリッジを回収するための記録液カートリッジの回収用封筒に関する。   The present invention relates to a recording liquid cartridge recovery envelope for recovering a recording liquid cartridge used in an image forming apparatus using a recording liquid such as an ink jet recording apparatus.

プリンタ、ファクシミリ、複写装置、これらの複合機などの画像形成装置として、例えば記録液であるインクを使用するインクジェット記録装置が知られている。このようなインクジェット記録装置においては、記録ヘッドにインクを供給するための記録液カートリッジであるインクカートリッジを交換可能に装着できるようになっている。   2. Related Art As an image forming apparatus such as a printer, a facsimile machine, a copying machine, and a multifunction machine of these, for example, an ink jet recording apparatus using ink as a recording liquid is known. In such an ink jet recording apparatus, an ink cartridge which is a recording liquid cartridge for supplying ink to the recording head can be mounted in a replaceable manner.

この場合、従前は、使用済みのインクカートリッジはそのままユーザーの元で廃棄されるのが一般であったが、資源の有効利用、環境に対する配慮の高まりによって、近年は、使用済みカートリッジの回収が行なわれるようになっている。   In this case, the used ink cartridge has been generally discarded by the user as it was before, but in recent years, the used cartridge has been collected due to the effective use of resources and increased environmental considerations. It is supposed to be.

このような記録液カートリッジの回収方法としては、特許文献１に開示されているようにリサイクル用の回収箱を用いることも知られているが、この方法では、ユーザーは回収箱が設置された場所まで赴かなければならないという不便さがある。
特開２００３−１８２８０４号公報 As a method for collecting such a recording liquid cartridge, it is also known to use a collection box for recycling as disclosed in Patent Document 1, but in this method, the user places a place where the collection box is installed. There is an inconvenience that you have to go up to.
JP 2003-182804 A

そこで、郵便などの輸送方法を使用した回収方法を採用できることが好ましいため、特許文献２に開示されているように、インクカートリッジの容器として外面に返送回収するための宛名及び輸送に係わる事項を記載したものを使用し、使用後、ユーザーがこの容器のインク供給口及び廃インク吸収口を密閉部材で密閉した状態にして、輸送機関に託するようにした方法も提案されている。
特開平５−３０１０６号公報 Therefore, since it is preferable that a collection method using a transportation method such as mail can be adopted, as disclosed in Patent Document 2, an address for returning and collecting the ink cartridge as a container on the outer surface and matters relating to transportation are described. There has also been proposed a method in which after use, the user sets the ink supply port and the waste ink absorption port of the container in a sealed state with a sealing member and entrusts it to a transportation facility.
JP-A-5-30106

しかしながら、上述した輸送機関による回収を行なうために、カートリッジの容器そのものに宛先などを印刷した記録液カートリッジにあっては、ユーザーがインク供給口及び廃インク吸収口を密閉部材で密閉するときに手をインクで汚しかねないため、返送作業が面倒である。   However, in the case of a recording liquid cartridge in which a destination is printed on the cartridge container itself in order to be collected by the above-mentioned transportation means, it is necessary for the user to seal the ink supply port and the waste ink absorption port with a sealing member. The return work is troublesome because the ink may become dirty with ink.

また、密閉が不完全であった場合には、特に浸透性の高いインクジェット記録装置のインクは輸送中に沁み出して、他の輸送物を汚しかねない。   In addition, when the sealing is incomplete, the ink of the ink jet recording apparatus having a particularly high permeability may squeeze out during transportation and may contaminate other transported items.

本発明は上記の課題に鑑みてなされたものであり、返送作業が容易で外部への沁み出しを防止した記録液カートリッジ回収用封筒を提供することを目的とする。   The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide an envelope for collecting a recording liquid cartridge that can be easily returned and prevented from being squeezed out.

上記の課題を解決し目的を達成するため、本発明に係る記録液カートリッジ回収用封筒は、使用済みの記録液カートリッジを回収するための回収用封筒であって、この封筒は少なくとも内層と外層を有し、内層は記録液を吸収可能な材質であり、外層は耐水性を有する材質である構成としたものである。   In order to solve the above-mentioned problems and achieve the object, a recording liquid cartridge recovery envelope according to the present invention is a recovery envelope for recovering a used recording liquid cartridge, and this envelope has at least an inner layer and an outer layer. And the inner layer is a material capable of absorbing the recording liquid, and the outer layer is a material having water resistance.

本発明に係る記録液カートリッジ回収用封筒は、使用済みの記録液カートリッジを回収するための回収用封筒であって、この封筒は少なくとも内層、中間層及び外層を有し、内層は記録液を吸収可能な材質であり、中間層は耐水性を有する材質であり、外層は筆記可能な材質である構成としたものである。   A recording liquid cartridge recovery envelope according to the present invention is a recovery envelope for recovering a used recording liquid cartridge, and the envelope has at least an inner layer, an intermediate layer, and an outer layer, and the inner layer absorbs the recording liquid. The intermediate layer is a water-resistant material, and the outer layer is a writable material.

本発明に係る記録液カートリッジ回収用封筒は、使用済みの記録液カートリッジを回収するための回収用封筒であって、この封筒は折り曲げることで開口を封止する封止部を有し、封止部の両端部には折り曲げ線を越えて封筒本体の一部が連続して形成されている構成としたものである。   An envelope for collecting a recording liquid cartridge according to the present invention is a collecting envelope for collecting a used recording liquid cartridge, and the envelope has a sealing portion that seals an opening by bending, and is sealed A part of the envelope body is continuously formed at both ends of the part beyond the folding line.

本発明に係る記録液カートリッジ回収用封筒によれば、少なくとも内層と外層を有し、内層は記録液を吸収可能な材質であり、外層は耐水性を有する材質であるので、内部に封入した記録液カートリッジから液漏れが生じても内層で吸収されて外部に沁み出すことが防止され、使用済み記録液カートリッジを入れて封をするだけでよく、返送作業の作業性が向上するとともに輸送中に他の輸送物を汚すことがなくなる。   According to the recording liquid cartridge recovery envelope of the present invention, it has at least an inner layer and an outer layer, the inner layer is a material capable of absorbing the recording liquid, and the outer layer is a material having water resistance. Even if liquid leaks from the liquid cartridge, it is absorbed by the inner layer and prevented from squeezing outside, and it is only necessary to insert the used recording liquid cartridge and seal it, improving the workability of returning work and during transportation It will not pollute other shipments.

本発明に係る記録液カートリッジ回収用封筒によれば、少なくとも内層、中間層及び外層を有し、内層は記録液を吸収可能な材質であり、中間層は耐水性を有する材質であり、外層は筆記可能な材質である構成としたので、内部に封入した記録液カートリッジから液漏れが生じても内層で吸収されて外部に沁み出すことが防止され、使用済み記録液カートリッジを入れて封をするだけでよく、返送作業の作業性が向上するとともに輸送中に他の輸送物を汚すことがなくなり、しかも外表面に容易に宛名等を印刷あるいは筆記することができる。   The recording liquid cartridge recovery envelope according to the present invention has at least an inner layer, an intermediate layer, and an outer layer, the inner layer is a material that can absorb the recording liquid, the intermediate layer is a water-resistant material, and the outer layer is Since it is made of a writable material, even if liquid leakage occurs from the recording liquid cartridge sealed inside, it is prevented from being absorbed by the inner layer and squeezing out to the outside. As a result, the workability of the return work is improved, and other transported items are not contaminated during transportation, and the address and the like can be easily printed or written on the outer surface.

本発明に係る記録液カートリッジ回収用封筒によれば、折り曲げることで開口を封止する封止部を有し、封止部の両端部には折り曲げ線を越えて封筒本体の一部が連続して形成されているので、内部に封入した記録液カートリッジから液漏れが生じた場合に封止部を折り曲げた部分に形成される隙間から毛管現象で外部に記録液が漏れることを防止でき、使用済み記録液カートリッジを入れて封をするだけでよく、返送作業の作業性が向上するとともに輸送中に他の輸送物を汚すことがなくなる。   The envelope for collecting a recording liquid cartridge according to the present invention has a sealing portion that seals the opening by folding, and a part of the envelope body continues beyond the folding line at both ends of the sealing portion. As a result, it is possible to prevent the recording liquid from leaking to the outside due to capillary action from the gap formed in the bent portion when the liquid leakage occurs from the recording liquid cartridge sealed inside. It is only necessary to put a used recording liquid cartridge and seal it, so that the workability of the return work is improved and other transported items are not soiled during transportation.

以下、本発明の実施の形態について添付図面を参照して説明する。図１は本発明に係る記録液カートリッジ回収用封筒の概観斜視説明図、図２は同封筒の構造の一例を示す断面説明図、図３は同封筒の構造の他の例を示す断面説明図、図４は同封筒の部分拡大斜視説明図、図５は同封筒の平面説明図である。   Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. FIG. 1 is an explanatory perspective perspective view of a recording liquid cartridge recovery envelope according to the present invention, FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional explanatory view showing an example of the structure of the envelope, and FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional explanatory view showing another example of the structure of the envelope 4 is a partially enlarged perspective explanatory view of the envelope, and FIG. 5 is a plan explanatory view of the envelope.

この記録液カートリッジ回収用封筒１は、使用済みの記録液カートリッジであるインクカートリッジ１０１を回収するためのものである。この封筒１は、図２に示すように、内層１１と外層１２の２層構造であり、内層１１はインクを吸収することができる材質（材料）、例えば薄葉紙で形成し、外層１２は耐水性を有する材質（材料）、例えばＰＥで形成し、内層１１と外層１２は例えば熱融着している。   The recording liquid cartridge recovery envelope 1 is for recovering an ink cartridge 101 which is a used recording liquid cartridge. As shown in FIG. 2, the envelope 1 has a two-layer structure of an inner layer 11 and an outer layer 12. The inner layer 11 is formed of a material (material) that can absorb ink, such as thin paper, and the outer layer 12 is water-resistant. The inner layer 11 and the outer layer 12 are, for example, heat-sealed.

このような２層構造とすることにより、封筒１の内部に入れられた使用済みインクカートリッジ１０１から万が一インクが浸みだしてきた場合でも、内層１１が保水し、外層１２は耐水性があるため内層１１が吸収したインクを外部に透過させないので、輸送中に他の輸送物を汚すこともなくなる。また、外層１２は耐水性があることから、輸送中などに雨など当たっても破れたり、破損したりすることを防止できる。さらに、内層１１と外層１１を熱融着によって一体化することで、インクの吸水によって内層１１の強度が低下するのを防止することができる。   By adopting such a two-layer structure, the inner layer 11 retains water and the outer layer 12 is water resistant even if ink oozes out from the used ink cartridge 101 placed inside the envelope 1. Since the ink absorbed by 11 is not transmitted to the outside, other transported items are not soiled during transportation. Further, since the outer layer 12 has water resistance, it can be prevented from being broken or damaged even if it hits rain during transportation. Further, by integrating the inner layer 11 and the outer layer 11 by heat fusion, it is possible to prevent the strength of the inner layer 11 from being reduced due to water absorption of the ink.

また、封筒１は、図３に示すように、内層２１と中間層２２及び外層２３の３層構造であり、内層２１はインクを吸収することができる材質（材料）、例えば薄葉紙で形成し、中間層２２は耐水性を有する材質（材料）、例えばＰＥで形成し、内層２１と中間層２２は例えば熱融着し、更に外層２３は筆記できる材質（材料）、例えばクラフト紙で形成して、中間層２２に貼り付けている。   As shown in FIG. 3, the envelope 1 has a three-layer structure of an inner layer 21, an intermediate layer 22, and an outer layer 23. The inner layer 21 is formed of a material (material) that can absorb ink, such as thin paper, The intermediate layer 22 is formed of a water-resistant material (material), for example, PE, the inner layer 21 and the intermediate layer 22 are, for example, thermally fused, and the outer layer 23 is formed of a writable material (material), for example, kraft paper. Are attached to the intermediate layer 22.

このような３層構造とすることにより、中間層２２が前記外層１２と同様に機能するので、上記２層構造の場合と同様の作用効果が得られるとともに、外層２３の表面に例えば差出人の住所や名前といった情報が書き込むことができるようになる。   By adopting such a three-layer structure, the intermediate layer 22 functions in the same manner as the outer layer 12, so that the same effect as in the case of the two-layer structure can be obtained, and the address of the sender, for example, And information such as name can be written.

さらに、封筒１は、図４及び図５に示すように、封緘部に、折り基準線４で谷折りにして折り曲げることで、封筒本体（収容部）２の開口２ａを封止する封止部（封止片）３を有している。そして、この封止部３の両端部には、折り曲げ基準線４を越えて封筒本体２の一部５が連続して形成されている。つまり、谷折りされる折り基準線４に対して垂直な方向に折り返される封筒本体２の一部５が折り基準線４を跨るようにして形成している。なお、封止部３には封筒本体２と接着するための糊面もしくは両面テープ６を貼り付けている。   Further, as shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the envelope 1 is a sealing portion that seals the opening 2 a of the envelope body (accommodating portion) 2 by folding the sealing portion into a valley with a folding reference line 4. (Sealing piece) 3 is provided. A part 5 of the envelope body 2 is continuously formed at both ends of the sealing part 3 beyond the folding reference line 4. That is, a part 5 of the envelope body 2 that is folded back in a direction perpendicular to the folding reference line 4 that is valley-folded is formed so as to straddle the folding reference line 4. Note that an adhesive surface or double-sided tape 6 for adhering to the envelope body 2 is attached to the sealing portion 3.

したがって、図６に示すように、封止部３を折り基準線４で谷折りしたときに、封止部３の両端部では封筒本体２の一部５が重なることになり、開口２ａが直接封筒本体２の縁２ｂに臨まない状態になる。これによって、仮に封筒１内に入れたインクカートリッジ１０１からインク漏れが生じたとしても、封止部３と封筒本体１との間から外部に漏れることが防止される。   Therefore, as shown in FIG. 6, when the sealing portion 3 is valley-folded along the folding reference line 4, part 5 of the envelope body 2 overlaps at both ends of the sealing portion 3, and the opening 2 a is directly The envelope body 2 does not face the edge 2b. As a result, even if ink leakage occurs from the ink cartridge 101 placed in the envelope 1, leakage from between the sealing portion 3 and the envelope body 1 is prevented.

つまり、一般的に、インク等の液体は毛細管現象により断面が小さいところほど良く浸透する。このため、図７に示すように、封止部３の両端部に封筒本体２の一部５がない場合には、折り基準線４で封止部３を折り返したときに、Ａ部分に封止部３と封筒本体２とで隙間が形成され、このような箇所は、他の部分よりもインクが浸透し易いため、少量のインクであっても、そこを伝って外部に漏れ出すことが考えられる。その対策として、封止部３の端部に封筒本体２の一部５を延ばして形成することによって、封止部３の端部から外部への漏れ出しを防止することができる。   That is, in general, liquids such as ink penetrate better as the cross section becomes smaller due to capillary action. For this reason, as shown in FIG. 7, when there is no part 5 of the envelope body 2 at both ends of the sealing part 3, the sealing part 3 is sealed at the A part when the sealing part 3 is folded at the folding reference line 4. A gap is formed between the stop portion 3 and the envelope body 2, and the ink penetrates more easily in such places than in other parts. Conceivable. As a countermeasure against this, the part 5 of the envelope body 2 is formed to extend at the end of the sealing part 3, thereby preventing leakage from the end of the sealing part 3 to the outside.

同様に、封筒１の底部についても、封止部７の両端部には折り曲げ基準線８を越えて封筒本体２の一部９を連続して形成し、封止部７を折り曲げ基準線８に沿って谷折りで折り曲げて封止している。これにより、封筒１に封入したインクカートリッジ１０１から仮にインクが漏れたとしても、封筒１の封止部３あるいは７の端部から毛管現象で外部に漏れ出すことを防止できる。   Similarly, also about the bottom part of the envelope 1, a part 9 of the envelope body 2 is continuously formed at both ends of the sealing part 7 beyond the folding reference line 8, and the sealing part 7 becomes the folding reference line 8. Along with the valley fold, it is sealed. Thereby, even if ink leaks from the ink cartridge 101 enclosed in the envelope 1, it can be prevented from leaking to the outside due to capillary action from the end of the sealing portion 3 or 7 of the envelope 1.

次に、このような記録液カートリッジ回収用封筒１を用いて回収を行うに適したインクカートリッジ１０１の一例について図８及び図９を参照して説明する。
このインクカートリッジ１０１は、インクを充填するインク袋１０２と、このインク袋１０２を収納するための筐体１０３とを有する。この筐体１０３は、第１筐体１１１と、第２筐体１１２と、第３筐体１１３とから構成され、第１筐体１１１と第２筐体１１２とでインク袋１０２の側面を保護する保護カバーとなる筐体部分を構成し、全体として薄型の箱状に形成している。 Next, an example of the ink cartridge 101 suitable for collecting using the recording liquid cartridge collecting envelope 1 will be described with reference to FIGS.
The ink cartridge 101 includes an ink bag 102 that is filled with ink, and a housing 103 that stores the ink bag 102. The housing 103 includes a first housing 111, a second housing 112, and a third housing 113, and the side surface of the ink bag 102 is protected by the first housing 111 and the second housing 112. A casing portion serving as a protective cover is configured and formed as a thin box as a whole.

インク袋１０２にはアルミラミネートフィルムからなる略四角形状（ここでは長方形状）の可撓性を有する袋本体１２１の長辺の一辺に樹脂製の保持部材１２２を固着（溶着）し、この保持部材１２２に袋本体１２１内のインクを画像形成装置本体に供給するための自己封止可能な封止部材、例えばブチルゴムなどの弾性部材で封止したインク排出口部１２３を備えている。   A resin holding member 122 is fixed (welded) to one side of the long side of a bag body 121 having a substantially rectangular shape (in this case, a rectangular shape) made of an aluminum laminate film.
