Abstract

A joining method includes a process of applying a joining material including a thermosetting resin to a member. The joining material includes an addition-type silicone resin. The joining material includes one or more kinds selected from the group consisting of a methyl-based straight silicone resin, a phenyl-based silicone resin, and a modified silicone resin.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A joining method, comprising:
applying a joining material to a transfer medium, the joining material joining a first member and a second member;
increasing a viscosity of the joining material that applied to the transfer medium than the viscosity of the joining material in applying the joining material to the transfer medium;
transferring the joining material to the first member; and
joining the first member and the second member by the joining material that transferred to the first member.

2. A joining method according to claim 1 ,
wherein the joining material includes a thermosetting resin.

3. A joining method according to claim 2 ,
wherein increasing the viscosity of the joining material that applied to the transfer medium increases the viscosity of the joining material by applying a first heat to the joining material.

4. A joining method according to claim 3 ,
applying a second heat to set the joining material joined the first member and the second member.

5. A joining method according to claim 2 ,
wherein the joining material includes an addition-type silicone resin.

6. The joining method according to claim 5 ,
wherein the joining material includes one or more kinds selected from the group consisting of a methyl-based straight silicone resin, a phenyl-based silicone resin, and a modified silicone resin.

7. The joining method according to claim 1 ,
wherein a portion of the first member, to which the joining material is applied, is adjacent to a portion having a tubular structure.

8. The joining method according to claim 1 ,
wherein a joined body is an ink jet head.

9. An apparatus of manufacturing a joined body,
wherein the method according to claim 1 is executed.

10. A joined body that is manufactured using the manufacturing apparatus according to claim 9 .

11. The joined body according to claim 10 ,
wherein the joined body is an ink jet head.

12. An ink jet head unit, comprising:
the joined body according to claim 11 .

13. An ink jet type recording apparatus, comprising:
the ink jet head unit according to claim 12 .

14. A joined body that is manufactured using the joining method according to claim 1 .

15. The joined body according to claim 14 ,
wherein the joined body is an ink jet head.

16. An ink jet head unit, comprising:
the joined body according to claim 15 .

17. An ink jet type recording apparatus, comprising:
the ink jet head unit according to claim 16 .
