    摘要: An ink-jet head is provided with a container having an ink-discharge opening in its wall section; a structural element that has peripheral edges at least both ends in one direction of which are secured to the wall faces inside the container, that divides the inside of the container in a fluid-separated state, and that is allowed to be distorted; and a voltage-applying unit for applying a voltage to the structural element. The structural element is constituted of a piezoelectric material, and the shape of the structural element is changed in response to the voltage applied by the voltage-applying unit so that ink is allowed to discharge from the ink-discharge opening. Therefore, the above-mentioned arrangement makes it possible to provide a greater ink-discharging force and ink-discharging speed, while maintaining a small size of the head. Moreover, it is possible to provide an ink-jet head having a good discharging efficiency with long service life.

    摘要: An ink jet head, having a long life, capable of discharging ink with a strong force and at a high speed is provided at a small size. A container comprises a casing and a nozzle plate covering the upper surface of the casing and an ink discharge opening. A buckling structure is fixed at its longitudinal ends to the bottom surface of the container via an installing member, and its center portion can be deformed upward by buckling. A diaphragm is positioned above the buckling structure with a space therebetween and placed on an inner wall of the casing with its periphery fixed thereto so as to liquid-tightly partition the inside of the container into a space and an ink chamber. A connection member connects the diaphragm and the buckling structure at their center. Electrodes are provided at both ends of the buckling structure to generate thermal stress therein by supplying electric current for buckling and consequently to apply pressure to ink in the ink chamber for discharging.

    摘要: A pressure generating member applies a pressure to an ink, the member having a symmetric configuration and including a buckling body. The buckling body may include a radially extending ribbed portion on its upper surface and no buckling layer beneath it. A heater layer is interposed between insulating layers for heating the buckling body, the buckling body having its peripheral edge portion fixed on a substrate. A center portion of the buckling body is buckled by being heated. An orifice plate is arranged so as to cover the pressure generating member with interposition of a gap defining a cavity for the ink. The orifice plate is provided with a nozzle serving as an ink discharge outlet located in a portion of the orifice plate opposite to the pressure generating member.

    摘要: A pair of opposite end portions of a buckling exothermic body as an exothermic resistor are fixed onto a substrate via insulating members. The buckling exothermic body heats with resistance thereof by applying a voltage from a power source to the buckling exothermic body via a switch. As inner temperature of the exothermic resistor reaches a predetermined temperature or higher required for the exothermic resistor to buckle, and a compressive force exceeds a buckling load, the exothermic resistor buckles and distorts towards thermosensible paper from a non-shifted state in which there is virtually no thermal stress. As the buckled and distorted exothermic resistor comes into contact with the thermosensible paper, recording, such as printing, is performed only at the contact portion. This reduces thermal mutual interference between neighboring buckling exothermic bodies. As a result, recording of high resolution and high print quality is performed. Moreover, since, unlike the prior art, there is no need to provide an abrasion protection layer, production costs can be cut down and a smaller and lighter head can be made.

    摘要: A deformable mirror including: a flexible member including a reflective surface for reflecting light incident thereupon; and a reference surface substrate including a support portion for supporting a peripheral portion of the flexible member, and a curved portion provided inside the support portion, the curved portion providing a space for allowing for the flexible member to be elastically deformed. A height of a central portion of the curved portion of the reference surface substrate is set to be equal to or less than a height of the support portion of the reference surface substrate. The flexible member is elastically deformed by being drawn toward the curved portion of the reference surface substrate, thereby giving a predetermined aberration to light incident upon the reflective surface of the flexible member.
