20120026246 | LIQUID EJECTION HEAD AND METHOD FOR PRODUCING THE SAME - A liquid ejection head includes a substrate having an energy-generating device configured to generate energy used for ejecting a liquid from an orifice; a transparent channel wall member forming an inner wall of a channel leading to the orifice; and an intermediate layer disposed between and in contact with a surface of the substrate and the channel wall member and having a refractive index different from a refractive index of the channel wall member. The intermediate layer has a first outer end surface forming contours of a symbol as viewed in a direction from the orifice toward the substrate and making a first angle with the surface of the substrate and a second outer end surface facing the channel and making a second angle with the surface of the substrate. The first angle is an obtuse angle. The second angle is smaller than the first angle. | 02-02-2012 |
20120055022 | METHOD OF PRODUCING LIQUID EJECTION HEAD - The present invention provides a method of producing a liquid ejection head, the method including the steps of preparing a substrate having a flow-path-wall member; bonding the flow-path-wall member to a resin layer that is composed of a photo-curing resin and serves as an ejection port member such that spaces serving as the flow paths are provided inside; providing through-holes in the resin layer such that the spaces communicate with the outside air; exposing part of the resin layer; heating the exposed portion of the resin layer; and removing the unexposed portion from the heated resin layer to form the ejection ports, thereby forming the ejection port member in the resin layer. | 03-08-2012 |
20130149648 | METHOD OF MAKING NOZZLE CHIP - The present disclosure provides a method of making a nozzle chip including a step of forming an ejection orifice row by performing irradiation with light rays using a mask having ejection orifice row patterns that form an ejection orifice row pattern of one nozzle chip when the ejection orifice row patterns are connected to each other through a connection portion. The mask is configured such that, with respect to a direction in which ejection orifices of the ejection orifice row are arranged, an absolute value of off-axis telecentricity of one of the light rays with which an ejection orifice that is at the smallest distance from the connection portion is irradiated is less than an absolute value of off-axis telecentricity of one of the light rays with which an ejection orifice that is at the greatest distance from the connection portion is irradiated. | 06-13-2013 |
20130152391 | MANUFACTURING METHOD OF LIQUID DISCHARGE HEAD - This invention is a manufacturing method of a liquid discharge head that includes a substrate having a plurality of discharge energy generating elements that generate energy that is utilized for discharging a liquid, and a discharge port forming member that constitutes a discharge port group including a plurality of discharge ports that discharge the liquid and flow paths that communicate with the discharge port group. The manufacturing method includes (1) disposing a photosensitive resin as material of the discharge port forming member on or above the substrate, and (2) forming an exposure pattern of the discharge port group using ultraviolet light in the photosensitive resin. In the aforementioned (2), the discharge port group is divided in a longitudinal direction and exposed, and the exposures are respectively performed so that regions in which there is a high degree of telecentricity face each other. | 06-20-2013 |
