Abstract
An inkjet head with a harmonica-type head tip is configured in a way that wirings electrically connected to drive electrodes within channels are led rearward from a rear surface of the head tip. A groove is provided along an array direction of the channels in areas on the rear surface of the head tip in which the channels are not formed. A lead-out electrode, which is electrically connected to drive electrodes, is formed from the rear surface of the head tip to the interior of the groove. One end of a wiring member, which has connecting wirings upon an insulating material corresponding to the lead-out electrodes, is inserted into the groove. The drive electrode is electrically connected to the connecting wiring via the lead-out electrode as a result of the electrical connection of the connecting wiring within the groove to the lead-out electrode.
