Characteristics of a droplet ejection apparatus are change depending on the shape or cone angle of the main ink ejection chamber of the apparatus, or on the diameter of the ejection aperture of main ink ejection chamber. Accordingly, operation of the droplet ejection apparatus varies with the shape, angle, or diameter of main ink ejection chamber. The shape of the aperture according to the present invention is circular or regular polygonal so that surface waves are synthesized at the central portion of the ejection aperture. Moreover, the cone angle of the main chamber is set to 65° or less from the plane vertical to the droplet ejecting direction and the diameter of the ejection aperture is set to a value 1.25 times or more larger than a desired droplet diameter.

A method of manufacturing an ink jet recording head. On one and the other surfaces of an ink supply plate, formed with a plurality of discrete ink supply ports and a corresponding number of discrete nozzle ports, a green sheet for a pressure chamber plate and a green sheet for an ink pool plate are laminated, respectively. The resulting lamination is then sintered. A vibration plate is subsequently adhered to the pressure chamber plate formed by the sintering step and a nozzle plate is adhered to the sintered pool plate.

An ink droplet eject apparatus comprises a plate-shaped member defining a conical ink droplet eject chamber increasing from an eject port to an opening, and a vibrating plate covering the opening. A spacer is disposed between the vibrating plate and the plate-shaped member surrounding the opening. An annular space is delimited by the spacer. An ink flow path is formed in the spacer. The vibrating plate is excited so as to generate an intermittent liquid flow of an ink W in the ink droplet eject chamber in the direction of the eject port. An actuator can arbitrarily control an amount of displacement of the vibrating plate and a generation time of displacement during the excitation.

In an image recording device which records an image on a recording medium responsive to a desired gradation in each pixel and which includes a recording head for jetting an ink droplet having a diameter at a timing therefrom, the diameter of the ink droplet is modulated in response to the desired gradation in each pixel while the timing is modulated dependent on the modulated diameter. Thus, a position of impact of the ink droplet is not deviated, so that quality of image is not deteriorated.

In an image recording device which records an image on a recording medium responsive to a desired gradation in each pixel and which includes a recording head for jetting an ink droplet having a diameter at a speed therefrom, the diameter of the ink droplet is modulated in response to the desired gradation in each pixel while the speed is modulated dependent on the modulated diameter. Thus, a position of impact of the ink droplet is not deviated, so that quality of image is not deteriorated.

An amplifier section is supplied with an electric signal outputted from a light-sensitive detector. The amplifier section comprises an amplifying circuit for amplifying the electric signal into an amplified signal having an amplified level. A producing section produces a control signal on the basis of the amplified signal and a reference voltage. A resistor section is connected to the amplifying circuit in parallel. The resistor section has a variable resistance which is varied in accordance with the control signal. A capacitor section has a capacitor and connects the input of the amplifying circuit and the output of the amplifying circuit through the capacitor in response to the control signal.
