摘要:
An ink jet recording head includes a recording element substrate having an array of discharge ports and a side surface extending along an array direction of the discharge ports, and an opposite surface facing the side surface. A minimum distance is provided between the opposite surface and the side surface at least at a center portion of the side surface. Also, a distance greater than the minimum distance is provided between the opposite surface and the side surface at an end portion of the side surface in the array direction.

An ink jet recording head has a plurality of discharge energy generating devices for discharging recording liquid, while being provided with a recording element base plate arranged on the face opposite to the surface where the devices are arranged, having a plurality of recording liquid supply ports for supplying recording liquid to the devices, as well as with a supporting member that holds and fixes the recording element base plate. For the supporting member, a plurality of recording liquid supply paths are arranged to supply recording liquid to each of the supply ports of the recording element base plate, respectively, and then, the flow path width of each supply flow path is formed to be smaller than the opening width of inlet portion of each supply port. Further, the steps to be created between the supply flow path and the supply port is buried by the bonding agent forced out from the bonding face of the recording element base plate and the supporting member. With the structure thus arranged, the ink jet recording head is capable of optimizing the discharge characteristics of recording liquid and the supply characteristics thereof, as well as the positioning precision of a recording element base plate to a supporting member.
