An ink jet head includes a passage-forming member providing a plurality of ink passages and an orifice plate having an array of ejection outlets in communication with respective ink passages. The orifice plate has a plurality of edge portions and the ejection outlets are arranged along a line that runs parallel to at least one of the edge portions and intersects opposing edge portions at crossing points. A confining member is configured to hold the orifice plate against the passage-forming member only in areas proximate to the crossing points.

An ink jet head cartridge include an ink container and a porous material contained in the container for retaining the ink. A process for filling the ink container includes the steps of supplying ink in a quantity greater than that which the porous material can retain through a first port and removing through a second port at least a quantity of ink which the porous material cannot retain. The process can also be performed through a single port. At least one of the ports can also be used for communicating with a recording head portion of the cartridge.

The present invention provides a liquid discharging head comprising a substrate having a plurality of heat generating elements for generating a bubble in liquid and a grooved member having a plurality of grooves constituting a plurality of liquid passages and wherein the liquid passages for respective heat generating elements are formed by joining the grooved member to the substrate and further wherein the grooved member has an opening portion into which the substrate is inserted and the opening portion has the plurality of grooves which constitute the liquid passages for the respective heat generating elements when the substrate is inserted into the opening portion.
摘要:
An ink container includes a casing, an air vent which is located in the casing, an ink supply opening for supplying ink out of the casing, and an ink absorbing material that is contained in the casing. The ink absorbing material retains ink therein, and has a generally rectangular parallelopipedal shape defined by sides of the ink absorbing material, and also has an ink supply portion for supplying ink to the ink supply opening. The ink absorbing material includes corner portions which are located between adjacent sides of the ink absorbing material. A preventing means prevents complete surface contact between the casing and said ink absorbing material by providing spaces between the casing and ink absorbing material which are in fluid communication with each other with a given space that is adjacent to a particular one of the corner portions that is most remote from the ink supply portion. The air vent is in fluid communication with the spaces.

An ink jet head includes first and second members for constituting liquid passages by joining them together; and a clamp for applying a line pressure to one of the members. By using such a clamp, the pressing force can be concentrated in a line to provide a uniform pressing force to ensure reliable clamping.
摘要:
An ink jet head includes an ink container; a recording head having an ink ejection outlet; a supply pipe for supplying the ink from the container to the recording head; a porous material contained in the container for retaining the ink; wherein the supply pipe is pressed to the porous material to deform it, wherein a depth of the deformation is larger than a maximum length of a cross-section of the supply pipe.
摘要:
An ink container, as well as a method of making the same, which has ink absorbing material for retaining ink, a casing for holding the ink absorbing material, an ink supply port through which ink is withdrawn from the absorbing material, and an air vent. The air vent and ink supply port are each provided adjacent to different longitudinal halves of the ink absorbing material, and the casing is initially filled with an amount of ink which is larger than the quantity of ink which can be retained by the ink absorbing material. Then, ink adjacent to the air vent is removed to such an extent that the casing contains the quantity of the ink which the ink absorbing material can retain. Thus, ink is retained at a higher density adjacent to the ink supply port than adjacent to the air vent.
