Problems solved by technology

[0005] However, in the conventional inkjet print head, no attention has been paid to the relationship between the nozzle diameter of the nozzle plate, which is a resin member having nozzles, and the diameter of the communicating hole of the metal cap stacked on the nozzle plate.

Abstract

In accordance with one embodiment, an inkjet head comprises a plurality of groove-shaped pressure chambers formed on piezoelectric members of which the polarization directions are opposite, and a nozzle plate arranged at the lateral side of the pressure chambers across a lid section with high rigidity. A plurality of through holes connected to a plurality of nozzles formed on the nozzle plate is formed in the lid section. The inkjet head is set in a range of 10-25% before and after a center, that is, a length ratio where the relation between ejection voltage of ink ejected from the nozzles and a length ratio between the length of the through hole of the lid section in the longitudinal direction of the pressure chamber and the length of the pressure chamber in the longitudinal direction of the pressure chamber is minimized.

Description

technical field [0001] Embodiments of the invention relate to inkjet printheads. Background technique [0002] As an inkjet printhead, for example, a shear mode shared wall type inkjet printhead is known, and a so-called side jet type has nozzles on the side of the pressure chamber. The inkjet print head has a substrate, a frame member bonded to the substrate, a nozzle plate bonded to the frame member, a piezoelectric member bonded to the substrate at a position inside the frame member, and a head for driving the piezoelectric member. Driver IC. In addition, when printing, the piezoelectric member is driven, and the pillars serving as driving elements provided on both sides of each pressure chamber in the piezoelectric member are deformed in shear mode and bent, thereby pressurizing the ink in the pressure chamber, Thus, ink droplets are ejected from the nozzles. [0003] In a conventional inkjet print head, when a flexible resin nozzle plate is fixed to a piezoelectric m...
