ABSTRACT:
An improved carriage assembly for use in ink jet printers is provided. The present ink jet printer carriage assembly includes a holder for holding an ink droplet projection nozzle and a charging electrode for charging ink droplets and the holder is so structured that it may be pivoted vertically as well as horizontally. Thus the ink jet projection direction may be adjusted with respect to its pitch direction as well as yaw direction. A deflection stage including a pair of oppositely arranged deflector electrodes is fixedly mounted on the carriage body; however, a gutter for collecting non-deflected ink droplets is adjustably provided. With such a structure, the whole assembly may be constructed quite with ease since minor mismatches may be corrected after assemblage; moreover, printed characters or images of excellent quality may be obtained.
