Abstract:
A print head is provided with at least ink-pressurizing cells, heating elements, and ink-ejection nozzles. In addition, the print head includes substrate members which form side surfaces and one end surface of the ink-pressurizing cells, and which are provided with the heating elements; a nozzle-formed member which forms the other end surface of the ink-pressurizing cells, and in which the ink-ejection nozzles, which individually correspond to the ink-pressurizing cells, are formed; and a head frame which supports the nozzle-formed member.
Abstract:
A manufacturing method for a print head, in which a substrate member provided with heating elements is laminated to a nozzle-formed member in which ink-ejection nozzles are formed, includes the step of laminating a correcting member having approximately the same coefficient of linear expansion as the substrate member to the nozzle-formed member. A nozzle interval L1 at an operating temperature To is determined as L1 = L2 ( alpha 2 DELTA T - 1)/( alpha 1 DELTA T - 1), wherein L2 is the nozzle interval and a heater interval at the operating temperature after the print head is completed; alpha 1 and is the coefficient of linear expansion of the nozzle-formed member; alpha 2 is the coefficient of linear expansion of the correcting member; T1 is the laminating temperature of the nozzle-formed member and the correcting member; and DELTA T is the difference between the laminating temperature T1 and the operating temperature To.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce as much as possible a position shift between an ink pressurizing chamber having a heating resistor and an ink ejection nozzle corresponding to the ink pressurizing chamber. SOLUTION: In this method, a correction member 4 having a coefficient of linear expansion roughly equal to a coefficient of linear expansion of a substrate member 6 is stuck to a nozzle forming member 2 and then the expansion or contraction of the nozzle forming member 2 due to temperature variation is executed along the coefficient of linear expansion of the substrate member 6. A forming interval L1 of the ink ejection nozzles at a temperature that a print head 1 is used is determined by the following expressions. L1=L2(α2ΔT-1)/(α1ΔT-1) L2: a nozzle interval at the use temperature after the print head is completed α1: a coefficient of linear expansion of the nozzle forming member α2: a coefficient of linear expansion of the correction member T1: a sticking temperature when the nozzle forming member and the correction member are stuck with each other ΔT: a difference between the sticking temperature T1 and the use temperature.

Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent a resist residue from being created when a nozzle sheet is formed by an electroforming method and to suppressing variation of nozzle diameters and channel resistors for ink as compared to heretofore in a printer that ejects ink droplets by driving, for example, a heating element in conjunction with a method of manufacturing a liquid jet head, the liquid jet head, and a liquid jet device. SOLUTION: The nozzle sheet is formed by the electroforming method and there is disclosed a process of treating a resist residue in an atmosphere of hydrogen. COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI
Abstract:
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To arrange dots in a line even when ink droplets are ejected from a plurality of liquid ejection sections with a time lag in the case where nozzles are arranged in a line. SOLUTION: This liquid jet device is equipped with a head wherein the liquid ejection sections are arranged in a line in a direction X and a plurality of heating resistors of the liquid ejection sections are arranged to be juxtaposed in a direction perpendicular to a direction Y. The liquid jet device comprises an ejection direction varying means for varying the ejection direction of the liquid droplet in a plurality of directions in the direction Y by differentiating a way of applying energy to each of the juxtaposed heating resistors, a time lag ejection means for forming a dot D1 by a first liquid ejection section and forming a dot D2 by a second liquid ejection section after a predetermined time passes from the above, and an ejection direction control means for differentiating the ejection directions of the liquid droplets from the first liquid ejection section and the second liquid ejection section. The ejection direction control means controls such that a distance between the deposited position of the dot D1 of the first liquid ejection section and the deposited position of the dot D2 of the second liquid ejection in the direction Y is made to be smaller than a relative moving distance between a head and a printing paper.
