BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an ink jet device.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Among the non-impact type printers, which are currently replacing the impact type printers that have been used up to now, and whose market is expanding greatly, the principle is the simplest, and multi-gradation and colorization are realized. As easy as
Inkjet printers are available. Drop-on that ejects only the ink droplets used for printing
The demand type is rapidly spreading due to its good injection efficiency and low running cost.

The Kaiser type disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 53-12138 as a drop-on-demand type,
Alternatively, a thermal jet type disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 61-59914 is a typical method.
Of these, the former is difficult to miniaturize, and the latter requires a high heat resistance of the ink in order to apply high heat to the ink, and each has a very difficult problem.

A method proposed to solve the above defects at the same time is disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 63-247051.
JP-A-63-252750 and JP-A-2
It is a shear mode type disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 150355. 2, FIG. 3, FIG. 4, FIG. 5 and FIG. 6 show schematic diagrams of these conventional examples.

FIG. 2 showing a cross-sectional view of the ink ejecting apparatus is shown below.
The configuration of the conventional example will be described in detail. The ink ejecting apparatus 1 is composed of an actuator plate 2, a cover plate 3 and a nozzle plate 31 (FIG. 4). The actuator plate 2 is formed of a piezoelectric material having ferroelectricity, for example, a lead zirconate titanate (PZT) -based ceramic material, etc., and is polarized in the direction of the arrow 5, and the plurality of grooves 15 and the grooves 15 are formed. It has a side wall 11 which separates 15. The cover plate 3 is made of a ceramic material, a resin material, or the like. By joining the actuator plate 2 and the cover plate 3 with the joining layer 4 made of an adhesive such as an epoxy adhesive, the groove 15 is formed into a plurality of ink liquid chambers 12 having a space between each other in the lateral direction. Become. The ink liquid chamber 12 has an elongated shape with a rectangular cross section, and the side wall 11 extends over the entire length of the ink liquid chamber 12. Electrodes 13 for applying a driving voltage are formed on both surfaces of the sidewall 11 near the bonding layer 4 from the upper portion of the sidewall 11 to the central portion of the sidewall 11. In the ink liquid chamber 12, from the ink supply port 21 (FIG. 4) to the manifold 22 (FIG. 4).
Ink 81 is introduced through.

Next, the operation of the conventional example will be described with reference to FIG. 3, which is a sectional view of the ink ejecting apparatus 1. In the ink ejecting apparatus 1, for example, when the ink liquid chamber 12b is selected according to desired print data, a positive drive voltage is rapidly applied to the electrodes 13c and 13d, and the electrodes 13b and 13e are grounded. As a result, the driving electric field in the direction of arrow 14a acts on the side wall 11a, and the driving electric field in the direction of arrow 14b acts on the side wall 11b. At this time, the driving electric field directions 14a and 14b
And the polarization direction 5 are orthogonal, the side walls 11a and 1
1b is an ink liquid chamber 12b due to the piezoelectric thickness sliding effect.
It deforms rapidly inward. Due to this deformation, the volume of the ink liquid chamber 12b is reduced, the pressure of the ink 81 inside the ink liquid chamber 12b is rapidly increased, a pressure wave is generated, and the nozzle 32 (FIG. 4) communicating with the ink liquid chamber 12b is generated. A part of the ink 81 is ejected as an ink droplet. Also,
When the application of the drive voltage is stopped, the side walls 11a and 11b return to the positions before the deformation (see FIG. 2), so that the ink liquid chamber 12
The pressure of the ink 81 in the inside b is decreased, and the ink supply port 21
Ink 81 is supplied from (FIG. 4) through the manifold 22 (FIG. 4) into the ink liquid chamber 12b.

However, the above operation is only the basic operation of the conventional example, and when it is embodied as a product, first, a driving voltage is applied in the direction in which the volume of the ink liquid chamber 12b increases, and then the ink liquid is first applied. In some cases, after the ink is supplied to the chamber 12b, the application of the drive voltage is stopped, the side walls 11a and 11b are returned to the positions before the deformation (see FIG. 2), and the ink is ejected.

In the ink ejecting apparatus 1, since it is not possible to eject ink droplets simultaneously from two nozzles communicating with two adjacent ink liquid chambers, for example, ink is ejected from the nozzles communicating with the ink liquid chambers 12b and 12d. After ejecting the liquid droplets, the ink droplets are ejected from the nozzles communicating with the ink liquid chambers 12c, and then the ink liquid chambers 12b and 12d again.
The ink droplets are ejected by dividing the ink liquid chamber 12 and the nozzles 32 into a plurality of groups such that the ink droplets are ejected from the nozzles communicating with.

Next, the construction and manufacturing method of the conventional example will be described with reference to FIG. 4 showing a perspective view of the ink jetting apparatus 1. The parallel grooves 1 that form the ink liquid chamber 12 having the above-described shape are formed on the actuator plate 2 that has been subjected to the polarization treatment by grinding or the like using a thin disk-shaped diamond blade.
5 is produced. The groove 15 is a parallel groove having the same depth over almost the entire area of the actuator plate 2, but is gradually shallowed toward the end face 17, and is formed so as to be a shallow parallel groove 18 near the end face 17. Electrodes are formed on the inner surfaces of the groove 15 and the shallow groove 18 by vacuum vapor deposition, sputtering or the like. At the time of forming this electrode, an electrode is also formed on the zenith of the side wall 11, so it is necessary to separate the electrodes on both sides of the side wall 11, and therefore the electrode on the zenith of the side wall 11 is removed by lapping or the like. Thereby,
The electrode 13 is formed on the inner surface of the groove 15 only on the upper half of the side surface thereof, and the electrode 19 is formed on the entire surface of the side surface and the bottom surface of the shallow groove 18. The electrodes 13 are electrically connected to the electrodes 13 formed on the sidewalls 11 on both sides of the groove 15.

Further, the ink inlet 21 and the manifold 22 are formed in the cover plate 3 made of a ceramic material or a resin material by grinding or cutting.

Next, the groove 15 of the actuator plate 2
Each groove 15 forms the ink liquid chamber 12 having the above-mentioned shape by the bonding layer 4 (FIG. 2) made of an epoxy adhesive or the like on the surface on the processing side and the surface on the processing side of the manifold 22 of the cover plate 3. So that it adheres. Next, a nozzle plate 31 having nozzles 32 provided at positions corresponding to the positions of the ink liquid chambers 12 is adhered to the end faces 16 of the actuator plate 2 and the cover plate 3. Each shallow groove 18 is formed on the surface of the actuator plate 2 opposite to the groove 15 processing side.
The substrate 41 on which the pattern 42 of the conductive layer is provided at a position corresponding to the position is attached by an epoxy adhesive or the like.

Then, the electrode 19 on the bottom surface of the shallow groove 18 and the pattern 42 of the conductive layer are connected by a conductive wire 43. Usually, a well-known method such as wire bonding is used for such connection. Since the diameter of the conductive wire 43 is usually very small and the mechanical strength is small, in order to prevent contact between adjacent conductive wires 43 and disconnection, and corrosion due to moisture and dust in the atmosphere, a resin such as epoxy is generally used. A protective film (not shown) is formed (potting) using this. The protective film is cured by heating.

Next, the configuration of the conventional control unit will be described with reference to FIG. 5, which shows a block diagram of the control unit. The conductive layer patterns 42 provided on the substrate 41 are individually connected to the LSI chip 51, and the clock line 52, the data line 53, the voltage line 54, and the ground line 55 are also connected to the LSI chip 51. Based on the continuous clock pulse supplied from the clock line 52, the LSI chip 51 determines from the data appearing on the data line 53
It is determined from which nozzle 32 the ink droplet should be ejected. Then, the LSI chip 51 applies the voltage V of the voltage line 54 to the pattern 42 of the conductive layer that is electrically connected to the electrode 13 in the ink liquid chamber 12 that ejects ink. In addition, the LSI chip 51 connects the ground line 55 to the pattern 42 of the conductive layer that is electrically connected to the electrodes 13 other than the ink liquid chamber 12.

Next, the construction and operation of the conventional example will be described with reference to FIG. 6 showing a perspective view of the printer. The ink ejecting device 1 and the nozzle plate 31 have the configurations and operations described in FIGS. 2, 3, 4, and 5. The ink ejecting apparatus 1 is fixed on the carriage 62, the ink supply tube 63 communicates with the ink supply port 21 (FIG. 4), and
The chip 51 (FIG. 5) is built in the carriage 62, and the flexible cable 64 is the clock line 5 shown in FIG.
2, corresponding to the data line 53, the voltage line 54 and the ground line 55. The carriage 62 has a slider 66.
Along the direction of arrow 65 over the entire width of the recording paper 71, and the ink ejecting device 61 holds the recording paper 7 held by the platen roller 72 while the carriage 62 is moving.
1, the nozzle 3 provided on the nozzle plate 31
Ink droplets are ejected from 2 (FIG. 4) to adhere the ink droplets onto the recording paper 71.

The recording paper 71 is stationary when the ink ejecting apparatus 1 ejects ink droplets, but the paper feeding rollers 73 and 7 are performed each time the carriage 62 performs a predetermined operation.
4, a constant amount is transferred in the direction of arrow 75. As a result, the ink ejecting apparatus 1 can form a desired character or image on the entire surface of the recording paper 71.

Next, another conventional ink ejecting apparatus disclosed in Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 5-92561 is shown in FIGS.
Will be explained. The ink ejecting apparatus 101 is composed of actuator plates 102 and 103 and a nozzle plate (not shown). The actuator plate 102 is made of a piezoelectric material having ferroelectricity, is polarized in the direction of the arrow 105, and has a plurality of grooves 11.
5 and a side wall 111 separating the groove 115. Side wall 1
Electrodes 113 for applying a driving voltage are formed on both side surfaces of 11 and a part of the zenith. The actuator plate 103 is made of a piezoelectric material having ferroelectricity, is polarized in the direction of the arrow 106, and has a plurality of grooves 117 and side walls 116 separating the grooves 117.
Electrodes 114 for applying a driving voltage are formed on both side surfaces of the side wall 116 and a part of the zenith.

By joining the zenith of the side wall 111 of the actuator plate 102 and the zenith of the side wall 116 of the actuator plate 103 via the joining layer 104 made of an adhesive, the grooves 115 and 117 are laterally aligned with each other. A plurality of ink liquid chambers 112 are formed at intervals. Further, the electrode 113 and the side wall 11 formed on the zenith of the side wall 111
The electrode 114 formed on the zenith portion of No. 6 comes into contact with each other to form a conductive relationship. The ink liquid chamber 112 has an elongated shape with a rectangular cross section, and the side walls 111 and 116 have the ink liquid chamber 112.
Extends over the entire length of. In the ink liquid chamber 112,
Ink 181 is introduced from an ink supply port (not shown) through a manifold (not shown). The description of the electrical connection between the electrodes 113 and 114 and the drive circuit is omitted.

In the ink ejecting apparatus 101, a driving electric field acts on the side walls 111 and 116 by applying a driving voltage to the electrodes 113 and 114 on the surfaces of the side walls 111 and 116 on both sides of the ejected ink liquid chamber 112. At this time, since the driving electric field direction and the polarization directions 105 and 106 are orthogonal to each other, the side walls 111 and 116 are rapidly deformed toward the inside of the ink liquid chamber 112 due to the piezoelectric thickness sliding effect. Due to this deformation, the volume of the ink liquid chamber 112 is reduced, the pressure of the ink 181 inside the ink liquid chamber 112 is rapidly increased, a pressure wave is generated, and a nozzle (not shown) communicating with the ink liquid chamber 112 is generated. A part of the ink 181 is ejected as an ink droplet. Further, when the application of the drive voltage is stopped, the side walls 111 and 116 return to the positions before the deformation, so that the pressure of the ink 181 inside the ink liquid chamber 112 lowers, and the manifold (not shown) is supplied from the ink supply port (not shown). 18) through the ink 18 into the ink liquid chamber 112.
1 is supplied.

However, the above operation is only the basic operation of the conventional example, and when it is embodied as a product, first, a drive voltage is applied in the direction in which the volume of the ink liquid chamber 112 increases, and then the ink liquid is first applied. In some cases, after the ink is supplied to the chamber 112, the application of the drive voltage is stopped, the side walls 111 and 116 are returned to the positions before the deformation, and the ink is ejected.

[0020]

However, in the conventional ink ejecting apparatus 1 as described above, only the upper half of the side wall 11 undergoes the piezoelectric thickness slip deformation due to the drive voltage applied to the electrode 13, and the lower half of the upper half is the upper half. Since the displacement is caused by the deformation, the amount of deformation of the side wall 11 is smaller than that of the electric energy applied to the electrode 13, and the amount of decrease in the volume of the ink liquid chamber 12 is small. Therefore, in order to form a character or an image on the paper surface or the like where the speed and volume of the ejected ink droplets face the ink ejecting apparatus 1, it is necessary to increase the driving voltage. For this reason, the driving circuit becomes complicated and large in size, so that there is a limit to cost reduction and downsizing of the device.

In the conventional ink ejecting apparatus 101 as described above, since both the side walls 111 and 116 are driven by the drive voltage applied to the electrode 113, ink is ejected at a driving voltage which is half that of the ink ejecting apparatus 1. The same ink pressure as the device 1 can be generated. Therefore, the drive voltage can be made lower than that of the injection device 1.

However, in the ink ejecting apparatus 101, the electrical connection between the electrode 113 formed on the side wall 111 and the electrode 114 formed on the side wall 116 joins the zenith part of the side wall 111 and the zenith part of the side wall 116. Since the electrical connection by this contact,
If the surface roughness and undulations of the zeniths of the side walls 111 and 116 are large, the connection is not assured and the reliability is low. Further, the zenith of the side wall 111 and the side wall 11
There was a problem that the electrode 113 and the electrode 114 were not connected due to the protrusion of the adhesive that adheres to the zenith portion of No. 6. In addition, ink 1 is applied to the contact surface between the electrodes 113 and 114.
81 enters to hinder electrical connection, and the side wall 111
And electrodes 116 and 114 due to vibration caused by driving
Wear on the contact surface with and electrical connection is broken,
There is a problem in that the ejection of ink droplets stops during use, resulting in low reliability.

The present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and it is possible to eject ink droplets at a speed and volume sufficient to form characters and images with a low driving voltage. An object of the present invention is to provide an ink ejecting apparatus with high reliability of electrical coupling.

It is characterized by covering at least a part of the electrode.
