<p>An ink jet recording head has an ink passage unit (1) formed by superposing a nozzle plate (3) with a plurality of nozzles (2); an ink passage plate (8) having a first and a second surfaces (8a, 8b), provided with a plurality of pressure producing chambers (5) connected to the plurality of nozzles (2), and an ink reservoir (7) communicating with the pressure, producing chambers (5) by means of ink inlet ports (6); and a cover plate (11) closely joined to the first surface (8a) of the ink passage plate (8). The cover plate (11) are deformed elastically by piezoelectric vibrators (10) to apply pressure to the ink contained in the pressure producing chambers (5). The ink passage plate (8) is a metal sheet (21) having the first and second surfaces (8a, 8b) of the ink passage plate (8). A through hole (20) for the ink reservoir (7) is formed from the first surface to the second surface in the metal sheet (21). A plurality of recesses (27) for forming the pressure producing chambers (5) are formed in the first surface of the metal sheet by press working. <IMAGE></p> |
