LIQUID EJECTION HEAD AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17872999 titled 'LIQUID EJECTION HEAD AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING THE SAME

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a liquid ejection head that is highly reliable and includes a substrate made of silicon, an ejection port forming member, and a bonded member. The substrate has a through flow path for supplying liquid to the ejection port. A protective film made of a metal oxide is formed on the inner surface of the through flow path, and a protective film made of a silicon compound is formed on the second surface of the substrate.

  • The liquid ejection head is made of a silicon substrate and includes an ejection port for ejecting liquid.
  • A through flow path is formed in the substrate to supply liquid to the ejection port.
  • The inner surface of the through flow path is coated with a protective film made of a metal oxide.
  • The second surface of the substrate is coated with a protective film made of a silicon compound.
  • The ejection port forming member and bonded member are securely attached to the substrate.

Potential applications of this technology:

  • Inkjet printers
  • 3D printers
  • Industrial printing systems
  • Bioprinting

Problems solved by this technology:

  • Ensures reliable and consistent liquid ejection
  • Protects the substrate and flow path from corrosion and damage
  • Improves the longevity and performance of the liquid ejection head

Benefits of this technology:

  • Highly reliable liquid ejection
  • Improved durability and longevity
  • Enhanced print quality and accuracy
  • Reduced maintenance and downtime


Original Abstract Submitted

A highly reliable liquid ejection head comprises a substrate made of silicon and having a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, an ejection port forming member bonded to the first surface of the substrate and formed with an ejection port for ejecting liquid, and a bonded member configured to be bonded to the second surface of the substrate. A through flow path is formed in the substrate, which is configured to pass through the substrate and to supply liquid to the ejection port. A first protective film made of a metal oxide is formed on an inner surface of the through flow path, and a second protective film made of a silicon compound is formed on all of the second surface of the substrate.
