Abstract

A liquid discharge recording head comprising a recording head main body provided with a plurality of liquid flow paths communicated with a plurality of discharge ports for discharging liquid, respectively, and energy generating means for generating energy utilized for discharging the liquid filled in the liquid flow paths from the discharge ports, and an orifice plate provided with a discharge port array having the plurality of discharge ports aligned in one straight line, and bonded to the front face of the recording head main body having openings of the plurality of discharge ports formed therefor, wherein the orifice plate is provided with the extended portion in the alignment direction of the discharge port array or in the direction orthogonal to the alignment direction, being extended more than the width of the front face of the recording head main body, and the extended portion is fixed to the adjacent face of the front face of the recording head main body.
