Patent ID: 7900328

Claim:
A method for manufacturing a fluid ejecting head, comprising: providing a channel unit including a vibrating plate and having nozzle openings formed therein through which fluid is ejected, the channel unit also including a pressure chamber that communicates with the nozzle opening; providing a piezoelectric unit including a piezoelectric element that vibrates the vibrating plate of the channel unit, the piezoelectric unit also including a securing plate that secures the piezoelectric element; providing a head case having a housing chamber in which the piezoelectric unit is to be housed; housing the piezoelectric unit in the housing chamber such that the piezoelectric element is pressed against the vibrating plate; pushing the piezoelectric unit in a housing direction which is the same direction that the piezoelectric element is pressed against the vibrating plate such that a portion of the piezoelectric unit is pressed against a sidewall of the housing chamber; and securing the piezoelectric element directly to the vibrating plate while the securing plate is secured directly to the head case using a bonding process which is performed at the same time while the piezoelectric unit is being pressed against the vibrating plate and the sidewall.
