In conventional inkjet recording apparatuses, stabilization of the direction in which ink droplets are ejected from the inkjet head greatly affects the printing quality of the recording apparatus, the yield of the head, etc., and improvements have been made. At Motoyama Kaijin, the diameter of the nozzle exit opening of the inkjet head is chamfered to stabilize jetting, but because the amount of chamfering is small, the stability of the jetting direction is poor.
It is disadvantageous in terms of cost.

In addition, those that attempt to stabilize the jetting direction of ink droplets by chamfering the nozzle part of the inkjet head,
For example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 51-24129 is known, but this only specifies the opening angle of the charge control type nozzle hole to be 60° to 120° (inside), and the chamfering of the outlet part is is not disclosed at all, and there are no regulations regarding the opening diameter dimensions before and after the straight part of the nozzle, and if the amount of chamfering is small, there is a drawback that stability is lacking.

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides an inkjet head nozzle having a linear straight part and an outlet part following the straight part, in which the outlet part has a diameter that is 1/1/2 with respect to the diameter of the straight part. It is characterized by having an opening diameter portion with ten or more chamfers. Examples of the present invention will be described below.

FIG. 1 is a cross-sectional view for explaining one embodiment of a nozzle structure according to the present invention, in which a nozzle 1 includes an inflow section 2, a straight section (run-up section) 3. It is composed of an outflow section 4, and as is well known, ink that is press-fitted from the inflow section 2 passes through a straight section 3 and is ejected from the outflow section 4. 5,5" is the opening diameter on the outflow side. In the present invention, the opening diameter on the outflow side is chamfered as shown in the figure, and a stable injection direction is achieved by the chamfering amount l of this opening diameter and the nozzle diameter. I am trying to decide.

Experiments were also conducted with a 25.5 μm nozzle and other nozzles, and the results revealed that the injection direction was stabilized when the nozzle diameter was chamfered to a diameter of 1710 mm or more. Incidentally, the nozzle chamfering method includes electrolytic polishing, chemical polishing, etc., and any method may be used.
