In addition, through the ink supply cavity 142 and the ink return cavity 144 which are respectively communicated with the ink storage box 120, the ink from the ink supply cavity 142 to the ink return cavity 144 returns to the ink storage box 120, so that the circulating ink supply is realized, the occurrence of the phenomena of sedimentation, blockage of the spray head assembly 130, frame loss during printing, partial non-ink ejection and the like due to long-time placement of the ink is reduced. By the organic combination of the first and second chambers 112, 114 with negative pressure and the ink supply chamber 142, the ink return chamber 144, and the ink storage cartridge 120, uniformity and consistency of ink supply are improved, ink jet quality is improved, and printing effect is further improved.
As shown in fig. 5, the negative pressure box assembly 110 further includes a first pressure sensor 116 disposed on the first cavity 112, and a second pressure sensor 118 disposed on the second cavity 114, where the first pressure sensor 116 and the second pressure sensor 118 are respectively electrically connected to a controller, and the controller controls the negative pressure source to adjust the pressures in the first cavity 112 and the second cavity 114 according to the acquired detection values of the first pressure sensor 116 and the second pressure sensor 118, respectively. In this way, the stability of the negative pressure cartridge assembly 110 can be ensured during the whole printing process, so that the stability of the ink supply cartridge assembly 140 is promoted, and the printing quality and the printing stability are improved.

Specifically, the air hole 122 disposed at the top of the ink storage box 120 balances the air pressure above the liquid level in the ink storage box 120 with the atmospheric pressure, so that when the ink storage box 120 supplies ink into the ink supply cavity 142, the ink can automatically flow by the weight of the ink and the negative pressure in the ink supply cavity 142 can be used for negative pressure ink absorption. The use of the passageway between the first ink outlet 124 and the first inlet 1422, and the passageway between the second ink outlet 126 and the second inlet 1424, which form two parallel lines, are disposed on both sides of the ink supply chamber 142, facilitates sufficient and stable ink supply, makes the distribution of ink in the ink supply chamber 142 more uniform, reduces fluctuation during ink supply, and facilitates smooth ink supply.
