Abstract: An ink jet apparatus electrifies ink in a nozzle, and ejects the ink from an ink ejecting hole onto a printing medium by a first electric field generated between the nozzle and the printing medium. The apparatus includes an ink catching device including an ink catching portion adjacent to the nozzle that catches an ejected substance. Between the nozzle and the ink catching portion, the apparatus applies a voltage for generating a second electric field which (i) causes an ejected substance, formed from the ink or the ink whose viscosity is changed, to be ejected from the nozzle, and (ii) causes the ink catching portion to attract the ejected substance. The apparatus, utilizes an electrostatic force to eject fluid, removes a clogging of an ejection head at any position, realizes less initial ejection fluctuation and improves the reliability of ejection.

Abstract: An ink ejector includes a head movement control section (22), an ink ejection area recognition section (3), an ink ejection timing control section (23), and an ink droplet number calculating section (5). With this arrangement, it is possible to cause nozzles included in a nozzle array to eject ink at different timings and gradually increase an amount of ink to be ejected. This allows a film thickness of an ink ejection area after landing of ink droplets to be uniform. As a result, it is possible to form a good-quality film. Further, since a head (7) includes a nozzle array having a plurality of nozzles (10), it is possible to shorten the amount of time required to restore a defective pixel. Thus, it is possible to provide an ink ejector and an ink ejection control method in which a good-quality film having a uniform thickness can be formed, and the amount of time required to restore a defective pixel can be shortened.

Abstract: An inkjet head (1) has a liquid flow path section (3) for receiving liquid and, in response to application of a voltage, ejecting the liquid to an object on which a drawing is to be made. The degree of design freedom of the shape of the liquid channel section (3) or the shape of a liquid channel in the liquid channel section (3) can be improved because the liquid channel section (3) is formed on the upper surface of a substrate. Furthermore, the inkjet head can have a structure corresponding to the properties of liquid to be ejected or to an object to which the liquid is to be ejected.

Abstract: The present invention provides a machine tool with a spindle chuck replacing mechanism which is simply configured to enable a reduction in time for work replacement without the need to sense the rotation speed of a spindle chuck or the like. The machine tool includes a pre-rotation-transmission mechanism 7 transmits rotation of a spindle motor 4, via a path different from a chuck coupling portion 3a of a spindle 3, to a spindle chuck 5 placed in a processing position P1 and not coupled the chuck coupling portion 3a.

The pre-rotation-transmission mechanism 7 has a speed difference absorbing mechanism 23 that absorbs the difference in rotation speed with the spindle chuck 5 coupled to the chuck coupling portion 3a.

Abstract: A nozzle plate (8) of the present invention is arranged such that, between (i) a first nozzle layer (1) having a first nozzle hole (orifice) (11a) that discharges a liquid substance and (ii) a second nozzle layer (2) having a second nozzle hole (11b) that is connected to the first nozzle hole (11a) and receives the liquid substance, a blocking layer (3) having a higher resistance to etching than the first nozzle layer (1) is provided.
