ABSTRACT:
A droplet discharging head includes: a plurality of containing chambers provided in parallel to one another with partition walls interposed therebetween, each containing chamber, partitioned and formed by each partition wall and a member with a vibration plate, being communicated with a nozzle and containing a liquid material; a main piezoelectric element bonded onto an outer surface of the vibration plate of the containing chamber; and a sub-piezoelectric element bonded to a portion corresponding to the partition wall on a side of the main piezoelectric element of the containing chamber. The main piezoelectric element and the sub-piezoelectric element are structured so that one of the main piezoelectric element and the sub-piezoelectric element expands, when the other contracts. The vibration plate is displaced, altering a volume of the containing chamber for a droplet of the liquid material to be discharged from the nozzle. The main piezoelectric element and the sub-piezoelectric element each have a piezoelectric material layer with piezoelectricity having at least one layer, and at least one pair of electrode layers sandwiching the piezoelectric material layer. The piezoelectric material layer and the electrode layers are alternately layered in the thickness direction of the vibration plate. The piezoelectric material layer odd-numbered from a side of the containing chamber in the main piezoelectric element has an opposite polarization direction to that of the piezoelectric material layer odd-numbered from the side of the containing chamber in the sub-piezoelectric element.
