Liquid discharge head and method for manufacturing the same

A method for manufacturing a liquid discharge head comprising a discharge element substrate including an orifice plate having a discharge port for discharging a liquid, and a supply port opened in the reverse side of the surface forming the discharge port for supplying a liquid into the discharge port, a support member having a supply path for supplying a liquid into the supply port, and

• a flexible wiring substrate having a blanking portion for transmitting a signal for driving an energy generating element, the method comprising:
• a step of laminating the flexible wiring substrate having a thermally fusible adhesive made of polyolefin or denatured polyolefin, having a softening point of 80° C. or higher, on the support member;
• a step of laminating the discharge element substrate on the flexible wiring substrate so that the blanking portion and the supply port may communicate with each other;
• and
• a step of heating the adhesive, bonding the flexible wiring substrate to both the support member and the discharge element substrate, and covering the end face of blanking portion with the adhesive.

• a support member having a supply path for supplying a liquid into the supply port;
• and
• a flexible wiring substrate having a blanking portion for transmitting a signal for discharging a liquid to the discharge element substrate,
• wherein the discharge element substrate is electrically connected to the flexible wiring substrate on the surface opening the supply port,
• the flexible wiring substrate is bonded to both the discharge element substrate and the support member by means of an adhesive, and
• the end face of the blanking portion is covered with the adhesive, the covered blanking portion communicates with the supply port, and the adhesive is a thermally fusible adhesive composed of denatured polyolefin, having a softening point exceeding the maximum reaching temperature of discharge element substrate before discharge of liquid.
