- the structures of the inner electrode 310 , the insulating nozzle 330 , and the outer electrode 350 may be modified into various structures other than the cylindrical structure, and the sizes of the outer and inner diameters are also variously modified as needed. It is possible.
- the external electrode 360 may be deformed to constitute the external electrode 360 having a cylindrical-like structure by a plurality of external electrode elements 361 arranged in the circumferential direction as shown in FIG. 9 . .
- the structure of the internal electrode 310 may also be modified and used in the same structure.
- the electrohydrodynamic pump head assembly having the gas flow path of the present invention so that the height of any one of the internal electrode and the insulating nozzle is adjustable with respect to the other, different from the structure described with reference to the drawings above. As such, by adjusting the height between the inner electrode and the insulating nozzle, dispensing characteristics of the viscous solution can be adjusted.
- an electrohydrodynamic pump head assembly having a gas flow path in which the internal electrode is not inserted into the insulating nozzle is used. It is also possible to configure. In some cases, a non-tubular internal electrode may be used.
- the container-shaped storage unit 110 is connected to the internal electrode and the insulating nozzle through an intermediate structure such as a tube. It is also possible to construct an electrohydrodynamic pump head assembly having a gas flow path of a connected structure.
- the lifting member elevates the lower body with respect to the upper body.
- assembly structure of the upper body and the lower body may also be variously modified, such as a structure in which screws are coupled to each other, a structure that is snap coupled, etc., rather than a sliding method. It is also possible to construct an electrohydrodynamic pump head assembly having a gas flow path having a body portion formed integrally, rather than being separated from each other into an upper body and a lower body.
- the electrohydrodynamic pump head assembly having a gas flow path having a structure including the gas flow path 410 has been described above as an example, the structure of the gas flow path can be variously modified, and the gas flow path having a structure without the gas flow path It is also possible to configure an electrohydrodynamic pump head assembly having a.
- the structure of the gas flow path can also be modified into various shapes other than the structure of the ring groove 211 and the partial flow path 213 described above.
