Abstract

See full text

A liquid ejecting head ejects liquid by generating a bubble. The head includes a first liquid flow path for direct fluid communication between a first common liquid chamber and an ejection outlet, a second liquid flow path having a heat generating element for applying heat to the liquid to generate a bubble in the liquid, and a supply path for supplying the liquid to above the heat generating element from an upstream side of the heat generating element in a direction along the heat generating element. A movable member is disposed between the first and second flow paths, faces the heat generating element, and is displaced to a side of the first liquid flow path because of pressure generated when the heat generating element is driven, and has a fulcrum and a free end located downstream of the fulcrum. A guide path is provided in which the liquid flows above the heat generating element in the second liquid flow path.
