A manufacturing method for a multi-nozzle ink jet head using piezoelectric
elements. The head has a nozzle member in which a plurality of nozzles
are formed, a pressure chamber wall member in which a plurality of
pressure chambers are formed, and piezoelectric type actuators that have
a diaphragm and a plurality of piezo elements and apply pressure to each
of the plurality of pressure chambers for ejecting ink from the nozzles.
A coating member having high rigidity is provided on inner surfaces of
the pressure chamber walls or on parts of the diaphragm in contact with
the pressure chamber wall member, thus increasing the rigidity of the
pressure chamber walls.
