Abstract:
A liquid ejection head body includes a substrate and a channel forming member arranged on the substrate. The channel forming member has a liquid ejection port for ejecting liquid and a liquid channel communicating with the liquid ejection port, while the substrate has an ejection energy generating element for generating energy for ejecting liquid at a first surface side and a liquid supply port for supplying liquid to the liquid channel in the inside. A conductive layer for electrically connecting the first surface side and a second surface side disposed opposite to the first surface side is arranged along the lateral surface of the liquid supply port.
Abstract:
A base for a liquid discharge head includes a heat element which forms an exothermic portion 108, an electrode wire 105 that is electrically connected with the heat element, an insulative protective layer 106 provided above the heat generating resistive element and the electrode wire and an upper protective layer 107 provided on the protective layer. The upper protective layer is made from a TaSi alloy containing 22 at.% or more Si.
Abstract:
An electromagnetic vibrating type diaphragm pump comprising an electromagnetic section having an electromagnet disposed within a frame, a vibrator supported within the electromagnetic section and having a magnet, large- and small-diameter diaphragms successively connected to the opposite ends of the vibrator, and pump casing sections for the large- and small-diameter diaphragms, fixed to the opposite ends of the electromagnet section. The right and left pump casings have pump chambers respectively associated with the large- and small-diameter diaphragms. Medium pressure (50-200 kPa or thereabout) can be produced.
Abstract:
A liquid discharge apparatus includes: a liquid discharge head which includes; a discharge port to discharge a liquid; and a substrate including: an energy generating element for generating thermal energy to discharge the liquid from the liquid discharge port; a pair of electrodes connected to the energy generating element for driving thereof; an insulating layer of an insulating material provided to cover the energy generating element; and a metal layer of a metal material provided corresponding to the energy generating element to cover the insulating layer; and a driver unit which sets a first potential of one of the pair of electrodes substantially equal to the potential of the liquid and a second potential of the other one of the pair of electrodes lower than the first potential to drive the energy generating element.
