Liquid discharge head
There is provided a liquid discharge head including: a plurality of pressure chambers including pressure chambers aligned in a first direction orthogonal to a vertical direction so as to form a first pressure chamber group, and pressure chambers aligned in the first direction so as to form a second pressure chamber group arranged side to side relative to the first pressure chamber group in a second direction; a return channel extending in the first direction; and return connecting channels each connecting the return channel and one of the plurality of pressure chambers to each other, wherein a height of an upper surface of each of the return connecting channels is not less than a height of an upper surface of one of the plurality of pressure chambers which is connected to the return channel by each of the return connecting channels.
Liquid ejection apparatus
A liquid ejection apparatus includes a supply manifold, a return manifold, and a plurality of individual channels. The supply manifold and the return manifold are elongate and vertically overlap each other, and liquid flows therein. Each individual channel connects the supply manifold and the return manifold and includes a supply throttle connected, at a supply-manifold-side opening thereof, to the supply manifold, a return throttle connected, at a return-manifold-side opening thereof, to the return manifold, a nozzle from which liquid is ejected, and a descender connecting the supply throttle and the return throttle, and connected to the nozzle. The supply-manifold-side opening of the supply throttle is positioned to vertically overlap a central area of the supply manifold in a width direction, and the return-manifold-side opening of the return throttle is positioned to vertically overlap a central area of the return manifold in the width direction.
