Inkjet head with conductive elastic member for electrical continuity between remote contacts in same

An inkjet head for ejecting ink droplets in an inkjet manner, comprising:

• a nozzle unit having a plurality of metal thin plates and a piezoelectric device, adapted to eject the ink droplets;
• a printed circuit board supplying to the piezoelectric device a drive signal for causing the nozzle unit to eject the ink droplets;
• a support supporting the nozzle unit and the printed circuit board in opposing relationship to each other;
• an earth contact disposed on the nozzle unit;
• a ground contact disposed on the printed circuit board, held at a reference potential;
• an electrically conductive elastic member disposed between the earth contact and the ground contact, such that a first portion of the elastic member electrically contacts the earth contact, while a second portion of the elastic member electrically contacts the ground contact;
• and
• a movement limiter limiting movement of the elastic member, to thereby prevent the elastic member from being disengaged from the earth and ground contacts.
