Abstract

An ink jet head unit comprises a head (2) in which plural nozzle arrays (2a, 2b, 2c, 3d) of which each comprises many nozzle holes are formed, and ink is ejected from the nozzle holes; a head base on which the head (2) is mounted; and flat cables (4a, 4b) flexibly formed by covering many transmission wires with an insulation film, of which one end sides where the transmission wires are exposed are fixed, in mounting parts (7a, 7b) interposed between the nozzle arrays (2a, 2b) and the nozzle arrays (2c, 2d,) onto the head(2) thereby to transmit ink ejection signals for driving the head.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to an ink jet unit and an ink jet recording apparatus equipped with the ink jet unit. Background technique [0002] An inkjet head unit used in a conventional inkjet recording apparatus will now be described. [0003] Figure 41 is a perspective view showing a conventional inkjet head unit, Figure 42 is showing Figure 41 Front view of the printhead and flat cable in the inkjet head unit. [0004] Such as Figure 41 and 42 As shown, the conventional inkjet head unit includes: a head 20, from which ink is ejected; a head holder 21, on which the head 20 is mounted; and two flat cables 22a, 22b, which are attached to the head 20 And is pulled out of the spray head 20 in two different directions. At intermediate positions of the flat cables 22a, 22b, drivers 23a, 23b, which generate ink ejection signals for driving the ejection head 20, are provided, respectively. Heat radiation plates 24a, 24b for effectively radiating ...
