Patent attributes
An ink-jet head, as a liquid-droplet jetting apparatus, includes a channel unit in which an ink channel is formed, a nozzle plate which has a nozzle which communicates with the ink channel, and a liquid repellent film which is formed on an ink jetting surface of the nozzle plate. A projection, which is inflated towards a side of the ink jetting surface more greatly than an area around the nozzle, is formed in a non-joining portion of the nozzle plate, at which the nozzle plate is not joined to the channel unit. Accordingly, there is provided a liquid-droplet jetting apparatus which is capable of preventing damage of the liquid repellent film around the nozzle, and a method of producing the liquid-droplet jetting apparatus with which it is possible to easily form a structure for preventing the damage of the liquid repellent film around the nozzle.
