Title: Bruce A. Anderson and Ink-Jet Pen Pressure Control

Introduction

Bruce A. Anderson is an inventor associated with Corvallis, Oregon, and Hewlett-Packard Company. His patent work addresses pressure changes in ink-jet pen reservoirs and the reliable delivery of ink.

Latest Patents

The provided information lists one patent for Anderson: “Accumulator and Pressure Control for Ink-Jet Pens.” The invention compensates for underpressure changes in an ink-jet pen reservoir through volume adjustments made by a piston moving within a sleeve connected to the reservoir. Ink held in the narrow space between the piston and sleeve provides a low-friction seal that prevents fluid communication between ambient air and the reservoir’s interior. One embodiment also includes an auxiliary ink reservoir carried on the piston to improve the pen’s volumetric efficiency. Anderson is credited with 1 patent.
