发明名称 Liquid ejecting apparatus
摘要 A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a pressure chamber that communicates with a nozzle which has an opening at a nozzle formation surface; a communication plate where a common liquid chamber which supplies a liquid to the pressure chamber is formed; a liquid ejecting head having a flexible film which seals the opening surface at the nozzle formation surface side of the common liquid chamber in the communication plate; and a sealing member which has a cavity-shaped sealing hollow section and can be sealed by the nozzle formation surface being confronted in the sealing hollow section. The sealing member is configured so as to be sealable by at least a portion of the flexible film being confronted in the sealing hollow section in a sealed state of the nozzle formation surface.

主权项 1. A liquid ejecting apparatus comprising: a pressure chamber that communicates with a nozzle which has an opening at a nozzle formation surface; a substrate where a common liquid chamber which supplies a liquid to the pressure chamber is formed; a liquid ejecting head having a flexible film which seals an opening surface at the nozzle formation surface side of the common liquid chamber in the substrate, the flexible film being capable of flexible deformation such that the flexible film is able to function as a compliance section for the liquid ejecting head; and a sealing member which has a cavity-shaped sealing hollow section and can seal the nozzle formation surface by having the sealing hollow section at least partially surround the nozzle formation surface, wherein the sealing member is configured to contact at least a portion of the flexible film to thereby seal the flexible film while being in a state of sealing the nozzle formation surface, wherein the liquid ejecting head protects the opposite side surface to the common liquid chamber of the flexible film in a covered state, and includes a protection substrate where a space which does not hinder flexible deformation of the flexible film is provided in at least one portion within a section corresponding to the common liquid chamber of the flexible film, and wherein the sealing member is sealable such that the flexible film including the protection substrate is confronted in the sealing hollow section from the surface sides at the opposite side to the flexible film of the protection substrate.
