The invention relates to a method and a device for producing and deflecting ink drops in a continuous ink-jet printer in which a continuous cohesive ink jet exits from a nozzle of a pressure chamber, and in which at least one acoustic pulse () strikes the cohesive ink jet () transversely to the propagation direction, and one segment of the ink jet () upon which the acoustic pulse () acts is separated from the cohesive ink jet () and deflected from its original propagation direction (), the separated segment forming an ink drop () during its travel due to cohesion forces.

The invention concerns a transport support for transport of at least one object along the transport path through at least one processing station, and can include transport of at least one printable object along the transport path for printing of a printable object, in which the transport support includes a device by means of which the object can be aligned in the desired position relative to the transport support. The invention also concerns a method for alignment, including centering, of at least one object of a transport support, by means of which at least one object is transported along a transport path to/through at least one processing station, in which the object can be aligned by a device provided in the transport support into a desired position relative to transport support.

The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for producing and/or deflecting ink drops, in particular in a continuously operating ink-jet printer, in which a continuous, cohesive ink stream is emitted from a nozzle of a pressure chamber, with spaced sonic pulses () acting on an ink stream () that is at least partially cohesive or in the form of drops in the dispersion direction () of the ink stream; by the effect of each of the spaced sonic pulses () on the ink stream (), an ink drop () may be separated from the ink stream () and/or deflected, in particular by the same angle, from the original dispersion direction () of the ink stream (), such that a group of ink drop streams (), in particular parallel ink drop streams, may be/is produced.

Method and apparatus for producing and deflecting ink drops

The invention concerns a method for increasing the number of ink drops in an ink drop jet of a continuously operating inkjet printer, in which the ink drops of at least two separately produced ink drop jets are combined into an ink drop jet. In one example embodiment this is done so that the combined ink drop jet includes the ink drops of the respective separate ink drop jets. The invention also concerns a device for production of an ink drop jet of a continuously operating inkjet printer, which includes at least two pressure chambers for generation of a separate ink drop jet with electrically charged ink drops and an electrode arrangement wherein the separate ink drop jets can be combined into a singe ink drop jet.

The invention relates to a method for changing the trajectory of ink droplets generated by and emitted from a print head which operates in a continuous manner, the ink droplets being electrostatically charged and deflected in a plane out of an original trajectory by at least one electrical field in a first deflecting device, the ink droplets being deflected in the same plane by at least one electrical field in a second deflecting device. The invention further relates to an inkjet printing device for emitting, in particular in a continuous manner, electrostatically charged ink droplets in an original trajectory by means of a first deflecting device for deflecting the charged ink droplets in a plane out of the original trajectory, at least one second deflecting device being provided by which the ink droplets may be deflected in the same plane.
