Liquid ejecting head and liquid ejecting apparatus
An end section part of a cover member is bent across a predetermined length toward a wiping direction, and a bending angle with respect to a plane is between 45° and 80°. When the wiper relatively begins to abut against the end section of the cover member, a top of the wiper first abuts against the bent end section of the cover member and then is gradually bent and wipes a lower surface of the cover member and a surface of a nozzle plate to wipe contamination such as ink. The ink that remains on the wiper is likely to be attached to a vicinity of the bent end section against which the wiper abuts first, but is likely to come off because a water-repellent treatment is performed in both the wiper and the bent end section.
