LIQUID DISCHARGE HEAD SUBSTRATE, LIQUID DISCHARGE HEAD, AND LIQUID DISCHARGE APPARATUS - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 18601099 titled 'LIQUID DISCHARGE HEAD SUBSTRATE, LIQUID DISCHARGE HEAD, AND LIQUID DISCHARGE APPARATUS

The liquid discharge head substrate described in the patent application includes electrothermal convertors, temperature detectors, liquid supply ports, and a structure with a wiring layer in an insulator.

  • Electrothermal convertors and temperature detectors are arranged on the substrate along a first direction.
  • Liquid supply ports are also arranged along the first direction.
  • A wiring pattern in the wiring layer closest to the temperature detectors has opening portions adjacent to the temperature detectors.
  • The opening portions include first openings for the liquid supply ports and second openings embedded with part of the insulator at the ends of the array of opening portions.

Potential Applications: - Inkjet printing technology - Medical devices for precise liquid dispensing - Industrial applications requiring controlled liquid discharge

Problems Solved: - Efficient and precise liquid discharge - Monitoring and controlling temperature during liquid discharge processes

Benefits: - Improved accuracy and reliability in liquid discharge - Enhanced thermal management for better performance - Cost-effective manufacturing process

Commercial Applications: Title: Advanced Liquid Discharge Technology for Precision Applications This technology can be utilized in industries such as: - Printing and packaging - Biomedical engineering - Semiconductor manufacturing

Questions about the technology: 1. How does the arrangement of the wiring layer and temperature detectors contribute to the efficiency of liquid discharge? 2. What are the potential cost savings associated with implementing this liquid discharge head substrate in industrial applications?


Original Abstract Submitted

A liquid discharge head substrate including a substrate, electrothermal convertors arranged on a surface of the substrate along a first direction, temperature detectors arranged along the first direction, liquid supply ports arranged along the first direction and a structure including wiring layer in an insulator arranged between the surface and the temperature detectors is provided. A wiring pattern arranged in the wiring layer which is nearest to the temperature detectors is provided with opening portions arranged along the first direction so as to be adjacent to the temperature detectors. The opening portions include first openings and second openings, each of the liquid supply ports passes through a corresponding one of the first openings, and the second openings are embedded with part of the insulator and are arranged at least two ends of an array of the opening portions.
