Abstract:
The present invention provides a liquid discharge head less susceptible to crosstalk between displacement elements adjacent to each other, and a recording device using the liquid discharge head. The liquid discharge head includes a plate-shaped passage member providing a plurality of liquid pressurizing chambers of identical shape which open into a main surface and are arranged in a matrix shape, a plurality of liquid discharge holes, and a plurality of individual supply paths; and a plate-shaped piezoelectric actuator having a common electrode, a piezoelectric layer, and a plurality of individual electrodes laminated on a diaphragm. The plate-shaped passage member and the plate-shaped piezoelectric actuator are laminated one upon another so that the diaphragm and the piezoelectric layer cover the plurality of liquid pressurizing chambers. In a plan view of the liquid discharge head, an opening of each of the liquid pressurizing chambers is a polygonal shape having at least one acute angle shaped corner. A connection electrode led out to outside the liquid pressurizing chamber in the liquid pressurizing chamber and the individual electrode is disposed in a parallelogram shaped region including two sides holding therebetween an acute angle shaped corner of the liquid pressurizing chamber, and two corners adjacent to the corner.

Abstract:
Providing is a liquid discharge head less susceptible to a standing wave occurred in a shared flow path; a liquid discharge device using the liquid discharge head; and a recording apparatus. The liquid discharge head includes a plurality of liquid discharge pores; a plurality of liquid pressing chambers 210 respectively connected to the plurality of liquid discharge pores; a shared flow path 205a being long in one direction and being linked the plurality of liquid pressing chambers 210; a liquid supply path 205c which is connected to both ends of the shared flow path 205a, and has a larger cross-sectional area than the shared flow path 205a; and a plurality of pressing parts for respectively pressing liquid in the plurality of liquid pressing chambers 10. The cross-sectional area of a middle segment of the shared flow path 205a is smaller than the cross-sectional area of that of each of both end segments thereof.
Abstract:
A liquid ejection head includes a first channel member 4 and a plurality of pressurizing parts 50. The first channel member includes a plurality of ejection holes 8, a common channel (20 or 24), a damper chamber 29, and a damper (28A or 28B) . The first channel member 4 is configured by a plurality of flat plates (4a to 4m) including a first plate 4m with the plurality of ejection holes 8 and a second plate 4k adjacent to this. The second plate 4k includes a first part 91 sandwiched between the damper chamber 29 and the first plate 4m. A covering layer 93 is unevenly provided on the first surface 91a of the first part 91.
