Patent ID: 10059102

Abstract:
An inkjet head includes: a pressure chamber-forming plate in which a plurality of pressure chambers each communicating with a nozzle are formed; a vibration plate that defines one surface of each pressure chamber and allows for deformation of a defining region thereof; a piezoelectric element formed by stacking a first electrode layer, a piezoelectric layer, and a second electrode layer in a region corresponding to the pressure chamber in an order from a surface of the vibration plate, which is opposite to the pressure chamber; and a circuit board that is arranged at an interval from the vibration plate, with a plurality of bump electrodes interposed therebetween, and outputs a signal for driving the piezoelectric element, wherein the first electrode layer is formed independently for each piezoelectric element, the second electrode layer is formed continuously across the plurality of piezoelectric elements, and at least part of the bump electrodes is electrically connected with the first electrode layer and the second electrode layer in a region outside of the defining region.
