    Abstract: A recording head comprises a plurality of recording elements for performing recording; a driving circuit for driving the plurality of recording elements; and a predetermined voltage generating circuit for generating a predetermined voltage to be applied to the plurality of recording elements from voltage supplied from outside. With the head thus structured, a desired voltage is generated in the interior of the head by use of the predetermined voltage generating circuit for performing recording, thus making it possible to prevent the voltage drop which may take place if the voltage is supplied from outside through a cable, as well as to prevent the durability of the heat generating elements from being damaged due to noises. It also becomes possible to set the voltage to be applied to the recording elements at an optimal value corresponding to the discharge voltage, hence stabilizing ink discharges efficiently.

    Abstract: This specification discloses a liquid discharging method of discharging liquid from a discharge port for discharging the liquid by a liquid discharging element in a first liquid flow path communicating with the discharge port for supplying the liquid to the discharge port, characterized by the use of a variable member for causing negative pressure to act on the first liquid flow path. The specification also discloses a liquid discharging head having a discharge port for discharging liquid therethrough, a first bubble creating area for creating a first bubble in the liquid, and a first liquid flow path provided with the first bubble creating area and communicating with the discharge port, the liquid in the first liquid flow path being discharged through the discharge port by the creation of the first bubble, characterized by a second bubble creating area for creating a second bubble in the liquid, a second liquid flow path provided with the second bubble creating area, and negative pressure acting means using a variable member provided between the first liquid flow path and the second liquid flow path for causing only negative pressure to act in the first liquid flow path by the disappearance of the second bubble. The specification also discloses a head cartridge and a liquid discharging apparatus using such liquid discharging head.

    Abstract: A liquid discharge method is designed for a liquid jet head provided with first discharge openings, a first liquid flow path conductively connected with each of the first discharge openings, first energy generating devices for generating energy for the discharge of droplets from the first discharge openings, second discharge openings, a second liquid flow path conductively connected with each of the second discharge openings, and second energy generating devices for generating energy for the discharge of droplets from the second discharge openings. Then, preceding the discharge of the first droplet from the discharge opening at a first discharge speed V1, the second droplet is discharged from the second discharge opening at a second discharge speed v2 smaller than the first discharge speed, and before each of the liquid droplets being impacted on an object, the first liquid droplet and the second liquid droplet are allowed to collide with each other to be combined. In this way, it becomes possible to allow two droplets to be in contact or to collide with each other reliably to be mixed between the liquid jet head and the object within a range that does not render any hinderance practically even if discharge speeds may fluctuate, hence obtaining precise images in higher quality.

    Abstract: A method for the discharge of a liquid and a liquid discharge head are provided which produce stable discharge of the liquid and, at the same time, facilitate the supply of the liquid by repressing the oscillation of a movable separation membrane during the extinction of bubbles. The method comprises using a movable separation membrane for separating a first flow path communicating with a discharge port for discharging the liquid and a second flow path furnished with a bubble generating region for generating bubbles in the liquid by the use of a heating element, disposing a movable member opposed to the bubble generating region across the movable separation membrane and furnished with a free terminal in the direction of liquid discharge, causing separation between the movable separation membrane and the movable member during the contraction of the bubbles, and inducing the intrusion of the liquid therebetween.
