Abstract: A method for manufacturing a nozzle plate is a method for manufacturing a nozzle plate with nozzle holes for ejecting an ink. The method includes: a hole making process for making a plurality of holes to be the nozzle holes in a base material for the nozzle plate; and a repair process for repairing a defective hole, out of the plurality of holes, in which a hole diameter of a portion to be a downstream opening along a direction of ink flow is smaller than a desired hole diameter. In the repair process, the defective hole is processed to have a hole with a repaired hole diameter of the portion to be the downstream opening smaller than the desired hole diameter and larger than the hole diameter of the defective hole.

Abstract: There is provided a liquid jet head capable of preventing a damage of an actuator plate without degrading the quality of characters and images to be recorded on a recording medium. The liquid jet head includes a nozzle plate, an actuator plate provided with an exposed area exposed from the nozzle plate, a nozzle guard provided with an opening section, and a bonding layer disposed at least between the actuator plate including the exposed area and the nozzle guard and bonding the actuator plate and the nozzle guard to each other. The nozzle guard includes a non-contact section continuing throughout an area from a place opposed to the exposed area to an inner circumferential edge of the opening section, and opposed to the actuator plate across the bonding layer, and an alignment section disposed on the opposite side to the non-contact section across the opening section, and carrying out the alignment between the nozzle plate and the nozzle guard.

Abstract: A liquid jet head includes a piezoeletric body substrate and an opaque substrate bonded to the piezoelectric body substrate. The piezoeletric body substrate has ejection grooves arrayed with an identical pitch P in a reference direction and non-ejection grooves arrayed alternately with the ejection grooves while shifted from the ejection grooves by a half pitch (P/2). The opaque substrate has through holes arrayed in the reference direction. The through holes include a row of through holes corresponding in number to and communicating with the respective ejection grooves, a first through hole arranged outside of one end side of the row of through holes so that it does not communicate with any of the ejection grooves, and a second through hole arranged outside of another end side of the row of through holes so that it does not communicate with any of the ejection grooves.
