Patent ID: 7992970

Claim:
A droplet ejecting apparatus for discharging liquid from nozzles of pressure chambers by supplying liquid from a liquid tank to said pressure chambers and then contracting said pressure chambers by means of piezoelectric elements, comprising: pressure chamber plates forming said pressure chambers; vibration plates forming walls of said pressure chambers; and a common liquid chamber formed in the liquid tank and connected to respective liquid supply ports of the respective pressure chambers through respective flow passages connected to said respective liquid supply ports; wherein the liquid tank and the pressure chamber plates are mutually superimposed in a layered structure, in positions where the flow passages coincide with the liquid supply ports of the pressure chambers; and wherein the pressure chambers are formed such that a direction of flow of the liquid through the pressure chambers bends once through 90° or less, relative to an initial flow direction of the liquid entering said pressure chambers, while flowing from the liquid supply ports to the nozzles.
