    摘要: The invention provides a liquid ejecting head alignment apparatus that is used for positional determination and adhesion of nozzle plates and a fixation member, each of the nozzle plates having nozzle openings through which each of a plurality of liquid ejecting heads ejects liquid and further having alignment marks for positional alignment, the fixation member holding the nozzle-plate side of the plurality of liquid ejecting heads. The liquid ejecting head alignment apparatus according to the invention includes: a mask made of a transparent material, the mask having reference marks each of which is aligned with the corresponding alignment mark; a spacer jig that is provided between the fixation member and the mask in such a manner that the reference marks and the alignment marks are opposed to each other with a space being left therebetween, one surface of the spacer jig being in contact with the fixation member; and a bifocal microscope having an optical axis and two optical systems that shares the optical axis, the optical axis being oriented from a face of the mask that is opposite to the spacer jig side thereof toward the alignment mark via the reference mark and the space, one of the optical systems being capable of focusing on the reference mark, and the other thereof being capable of focusing on the alignment mark.

    摘要: Provided is an alignment apparatus for a liquid-jet head which includes a nozzle plate, a fixation member, a transparent mask, chucks, and an alignment mechanism. The nozzle plate includes a nozzle orifice for injecting a liquid for the liquid-jet head, and a first and a second alignment marks to be used in an aligning operation. Each of the alignment marks is formed in each of two end portions in the longitudinal direction of the nozzle plate. The fixation member holds the nozzle-plate side of each of a plurality of liquid-jet heads. The fixation member and the nozzle plate are positioned relative to each other and joined together by use of the alignment apparatus for the liquid-jet head. The transparent mask includes a first and a second reference marks with which the first and the second alignment marks are to be aligned respectively. The chucks are brought into contact respectively with two end surfaces in the longitudinal direction of each liquid-jet head, and thus hold the liquid-jet head. The alignment mechanism is configured to move the liquid-jet head by use of the chucks linearly within a plane that is parallel to the nozzle plate, and to move the liquid-jet head rotationally about an axis orthogonal to the plane.
