Abstract

In an ink jet recording device having an ink tank integrated type jet recording head and a carriage for mounting the head thereon, good electrical connection is obtained wherein the electrical pad of the connecting terminal of the recording head and the electrical pad of the connecting terminal of the carriage are connected to each other while rubbing against one another. Further, also by specifying the arrangement position of the positioning member, more accurate electrical conduction is effected and also breaking of the positioning member is prevented, thereby providing an ink jet recording device having high reliability in aspects of both recording and durability.
