  • Patent number: 9776406
    Abstract: Provided are a method for manufacturing an ink jet head and an ink jet head. The method includes: arranging a vibrating plate on lower surface of a substrate; arranging a piezoelectric actuator on surface of the vibrating plate; arranging a protective film on surface of the piezoelectric actuator for sealing the piezoelectric actuator along with the vibrating plate, thus preventing the piezoelectric actuator from corrosion; etching the substrate and the vibrating plate to form a groove on the substrate at a position corresponding to the piezoelectric actuator, and form a liquid feeding hole on the substrate and vibrating plate; forming a pressure chamber and a nozzle orifice on lower surface of the vibrating plate, allowing the pressure chamber to cover the position where the piezoelectric actuator is arranged in the vibrating plate, enabling communication of the pressure chamber with the nozzle orifice and the liquid feeding hole.

  • Patent number: 9324549
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of micro electro mechanical system (MEMS), and particularly relates to a MEMS device of a two-dimensional (2D) air amplifier for electro spray ion focusing. It mainly includes original gas inlets, a gap structure, a wall structure and a center focusing groove in the axis of air amplifier. The feature of present invention is the double layers SU-8 mold fabricated by a micro machining method. Then the polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) air amplifier is cast and bonded. In order to enhance the structure stiffness, PDMS is bonded with a glass supporting substrate. In the present invention, the fabrication method for the SU-8 mold and the PDMS casting and bonding processes are disclosed in detail so that the MEMS planar air amplifier ion focusing device can be fabricated by those skilled in the art. This fabrication method has advantages of simple process, low cost, small dimension size and easily implemented.
