Abstract: A male die for forming a member incorporated in a liquid ejection head is disclosed. Each of a plurality of first forging punches is operable to form a first recess on a metal plate. The first forging punches are arranged at a fixed pitch to form a punch row in a first direction. Each of a plurality of second forging punches is operable to form a second recess on the metal plate. The second forging punches are arranged adjacently to first forging punches located at both ends of the punch row. The first recess is to be a first part of the member which is used to eject liquid from the liquid ejection head, and the second recess is to be a second part of the member which is not used to eject liquid.

Abstract: A liquid jetting head includes a nozzle plate, a liquid passage plate and a sealing plate. The nozzle plate is provided with a plurality of nozzle orifices. The liquid passage plate has a first face and a second face which are opposite to each other. The liquid passage plate is provided with a plurality of grooves which are arranged in a first direction perpendicular to a longitudinal direction of the groove on the first face, each groove having a communication port which passes through from the first face to the second face. The sealing plate for sealing opening faces of the grooves. The sealing plate is jointed to the first face so that a plurality of pressure generating chambers are formed. The nozzle plate is jointed to the second face such that the communication holes are communicated with the nozzle orifices respectively.
