Abstract:
An ink jet head comprising a main body for changing the volume in a pressure chamber by deformation of a laminate piezoelectric device, and feeding ink filled in the pressure chamber toward front openings of the pressure chamber, a nozzle plate having nozzle holes communicating with the front openings of the pressure chamber, and an adhesive layer formed between the front end surface of the main body and the nozzle plate by an adhesive, said adhesive layer formed between the main body and the nozzle plate comprises a nozzle seal layer circumscribing the nozzle holes and the periphery of the front openings of the pressure chamber to prevent ink leakage between the nozzle plate and the main body, an outer periphery hermetic layer formed annularly around the outer periphery of a region in which the main body and the nozzle plate oppose each other to prevent moisture entering between the nozzle plate and the main body, and a reinforcing layer being distributed in an intermediate portion between the nozzle seal layer and the outer periphery hermetic layer to secure the bond strength.
