摘要:
An ink tank in which an air communication passage and a pressure regulator valve passage are formed by covering grooves, etc., with a film is fabricated in a simple manufacturing process. Specifically, an atmosphere communication hole and a major part of an air communication passage are formed in the same surface on which a film for forming a valve passage is attached. By virtue of this, the process of attaching a major part of the air communication passage film and the process of attaching the valve film can be performed in a single process step. This simplifies the process of attaching the films.

The present invention provides an ink jet recording head in which a buffer chamber connected to a liquid supply path can be cleaned effectively. The ink jet recording head includes a recording head unit having a discharge portion for discharging ink, a tank holder unit to which an ink tank for containing the ink to be discharged at the recording head unit, and a liquid supply path formed between the tank holder unit and a flow path forming member joined to the tank holder unit in order to supply the ink contained in the ink tank to the recording head unit. A buffer chamber containing gas is connected to the liquid supply path and the buffer chamber is provided with an opening portion. The opening portion is closed by joining the recording head unit to the tank holder unit by joining the recording head unit to the flow path forming member.
