ABSTRACT:
The ink jet head is provided with a piezo-electric sheet having a plurality of contacts distributed on a surface thereof. A flat connector is fixed so as to cover the surface of the piezo-electric sheet. A plurality of conductive spots and a plurality of conductive lines are formed on a surface of the flat connector. One of each of the conductive lines is connected with one of each of the conductive spots, and the plurality of conductive spots is disposed with the same distributive pattern as the plurality of contacts. The flat connector is provided with a sheet formed of an insulating material, and is provided with a plurality of projections corresponding to the conductive spots. At least a distal end of each of the projections is covered with one of the conductive spots. The flat connector and the piezoelectric sheet are fixed such that the conductive spots make contact with the contacts of the piezo-electric sheet. Portions of the flat connector having projections are thinner than the surrounding area of the flat connector.
