Abstract
A liquid ejecting head includes a head body, a first member that has a first surface and a second surface and that holds the head body, a second member that has a third surface and that is adhered to the first surface by a first adhesive so that the third surface is along planar directions of the second surface, and a third member that is disposed so as to extend over the second surface and the third surface and that is adhered to the second surface and the third surface by a second adhesive. At an intersection portion at which the first adhesive and the second adhesive contact, an adhesive receiving portion that accepts inflow of at least one of the first adhesive and the second adhesive is formed.
Claims15
A liquid ejecting head comprising:
- a head body provided with nozzles that eject a liquid;
- a first member that has a first surface and a second surface which intersects the first surface and that holds the head body at a location apart from the first surface and the second surface;
- a second member that has a third surface and that is adhered to the first surface of the first member by a first adhesive so that the third surface is along a planar direction of the second surface of the first member;
- a third member that is disposed so as to extend over the second surface and the third surface and that is adhered to the second surface and the third surface by a second adhesive;
- a space surrounded by the first member, the second member, the third member, the first adhesive, and the second adhesive;
- and
- an adhesive receiving portion that communicates with an intersection portion at which the first adhesive and the second adhesive contact and that accepts inflow of at least one of the first adhesive and the second adhesive.
A production method for a liquid ejecting head that includes a head body provided with nozzles that eject a liquid, a first member that has a first surface and a second surface which intersects the first surface and that holds the head body at a location apart from the first surface and the second surface, a second member that has a third surface and that is adhered to the first surface of the first member by a first adhesive so that the third surface is along a planar direction of the second surface of the first member, a third member that is disposed so as to extend over the second surface and the third surface and that is adhered to the second surface and the third surface by a second adhesive, a space surrounded by the first member, the second member, the third member, the first adhesive, and the second adhesive, and an adhesive receiving portion that communicates with an intersection portion at which the first adhesive and the second adhesive contact and that accepts inflow of at least one of the first adhesive and the second adhesive, the production method comprising:
- a first adhering step of adhering the first member and the second member by the first adhesive;
- and
- a second adhering step of adhering the first member and the second member to the third member by the second adhesive after the first adhering step.
