PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To propose a continuous flow type multi-nozzle inkjet recording apparatus of a new constitution in which a plurality of ink jetting nozzles are arranged to perform print output at a high speed. SOLUTION: A nozzle plate is a multi-nozzle plate of an ink jetting nozzle/heating means integrated type. The multi-nozzle plate includes a plurality of ink jetting nozzles arranged at a fixed arrangement density, and a plurality of heating means of a membrane structure are provided in the circumference of the ink jetting nozzles corresponding to the ink jetting nozzles. A collecting means can change a flying direction by causing a gas flow to collide against flying ink droplets to catch the ink droplets by the collecting means. The gas flow is jetted from gas jetting nozzles prepared correspondingly to a plurality of the ink jetting nozzles arranged in parallel with a plurality of the ink jetting nozzles. The gas jetting nozzles are shielded from an ambient atmosphere of a recording body by a common cap means at the time of non-printing. COPYRIGHT: (C)2010,JPO&INPIT |
