  • Patent number: 9643412
    Abstract: An ejection apparatus is provided with a plurality of ejection units, a controller that controls a temperature of a liquid, and a supply mechanism that includes a plurality of supply units. The plurality of supply units flow the liquid in a predetermined flow direction. Respective portion of the plurality of supply units in the flow direction are connected to the ejection units to supply the liquid to the ejection units. A downstream side portion of one of the supply units in the flow direction is connected to another one of supply units via a heat transfer member.
