In today's technology, inkjet printers are roughly inkjet printers. It is divided into thermal bubble type inkjet head and piezoelectric (piezoelectric) black jet head. The thermal bubble type inkjet head uses a heating device to generate high temperature, and the ink on the heating device is instantaneously heated to generate a bubble. The ink is ejected by the pressure of the bubble. The piezoelectric inkjet head uses a piezoelectric material as a driving method, that is, changes in electrode voltage are used to apply pressure to the ink through a film, so that the ink at this point is ejected through a nozzle hole. The conventional thermal bubble type inkjet head is formed by forming a plurality of heating elements on a wafer, forming an ink chamber for containing ink on each heating element, and an orifice plate covering the wafer, and Spray holes are formed on the nozzle plate adjacent to each heating element; so that the ink in the ink chamber is heated by the heating element '', and after generating air bubbles, the nozzles of the inkjet head are used for printing and inkjetting. Ah Gong, where the inkjet head is fixed, and the ink fixed to the ink g is delivered to the central position. An ink in a water tank penetrating the wafer is formed at an appropriate position and flows into the inkjet head through the ink supply channel: The method of forming the ink supply channel on the moon is f: 丄: the hole is sprayed on the wafer and then sanded through, such as the shape of the ink supply channel of the inkjet head, the ink channel. The holes in the layer are precisely aligned with the wafer to be formed. The protection process must be quite inconvenient and the accuracy is low. The location of the earthen road, in view of this, is based on the fact that ^^ was published in the wares. 4452l3-Case No. 89100006 (January p. 5.
