    摘要: A liquid ejecting apparatus including; a first liquid chamber that communicates with a first nozzle, a first channel, and a first outflow channel; a second liquid chamber that communicates with a second nozzle, a second channel, and a second outflow channel; a first volume changing portion that changes a volume of the first liquid chamber to eject liquid from the first nozzle; a second volume changing portion that changes a volume of the second liquid chamber to eject the liquid from the second nozzle; a first inflow channel resistance changing portion that changes a flow channel resistance of the first inflow channel, a second inflow channel resistance changing portion that changes a flow channel resistance of the second inflow channel, and an inflow channel-side common drive portion that applies drive forces to the first inflow channel resistance changing portion and the second inflow channel resistance changing portion.

    摘要: A liquid discharge apparatus includes a liquid chamber communicating with a nozzle that discharges liquid; a capacity changer that changes a capacity of the chamber; an inflow path connected to the chamber allowing the liquid to enter the chamber; an outflow path connected to the liquid chamber allowing the liquid to exit the chamber; a first resistance changer changing a flow resistance of the inflow path; a second resistance changer changing a flow resistance of the outflow path; and a controller controlling the capacity changer, the first resistance changer, and the second resistance changer. The controller allows the nozzle to discharge the liquid by increasing the flow resistance of the inflow and outflow paths, increasing the capacity of the chamber, and then, while the flow resistance of the inflow and outflow paths remain increased, decreasing the capacity of the chamber.

    摘要: A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a liquid chamber that is in communication with a nozzle that ejects liquid, a volume changing device that changes volume of the liquid chamber, an inflow channel that is connected to the liquid chamber and enables the liquid to flow into the liquid chamber, a discharge channel that discharges the liquid, a first flow path resistance changing device that changes flow path resistance of the inflow channel, a liquid supply section that supplies the liquid to the inflow channel by pressurizing the liquid, and a bypass channel that enables the liquid supplied from the liquid supply section to bypass the inflow channel and to flow into the discharge channel.

    摘要: A liquid ejecting apparatus includes a liquid chamber in communication with a nozzle, a volume changing unit configured to change a volume of the liquid chamber, an inflow passage through which the liquid flows into the liquid chamber, an outflow passage through which the liquid flows out of the liquid chamber, a passage resistance changing unit configured to change a passage resistance of the outflow passage, and a controller configured to control the volume changing unit to reduce the volume of the liquid chamber so as to cause the liquid to be ejected through the nozzle. In filling the liquid chamber with the liquid for ejection of the liquid through the nozzle, the controller controls the passage resistance changing unit to change the passage resistance of the outflow passage to an increased passage resistance and controls the volume changing unit to increase the volume of the liquid chamber.

    摘要: A liquid ejecting apparatus is provided with a liquid chamber which communicates with a nozzle for ejecting liquid; an inflow path which is connected to the liquid chamber; a liquid supply unit which supplies the liquid to the inflow path; an outflow path which is connected to the liquid chamber, and through which the liquid is caused to flow out from the liquid chamber; a moving object which causes the liquid to be ejected from the nozzle by reciprocating toward the nozzle in the liquid chamber; and an actuator which causes the moving object to reciprocate. In an ejecting state in which liquid is continuously ejected from the nozzle due to at least reciprocating of the moving object, a flow path resistance of the outflow path is larger than that of the inflow path.

    摘要: A fluid discharging apparatus includes a storage chamber storing a fluid, a discharge port communicating with the storage chamber, a supply unit supplying the fluid to the storage chamber by pressure, a moving object moving in a first direction toward the discharge port and in a second direction away from the discharge port, a pressure changing mechanism, and a control unit controlling the moving object and the pressure changing mechanism. The control unit performs discharge processing, moving processing, and pressure control processing. In the discharge processing, the moving object moves from a closed position closing the discharge port in the first direction to discharge the fluid. In the moving processing, the moving object moves in the second direction while the fluid is discharged from the discharge port. In the pressure control processing, the pressure changing mechanism suppresses a pressure increase in storage chamber.
