Abstract

PURPOSE:To uniformize an impact pressure on a platen by setting stiffness of a coil spring located an armature for each individual pin number and mounting the coil spring. CONSTITUTION:In a spring charging-type printing head which is driven by a coil spring, the distance between a platen 3 and wire 4 for a center pin is shorter than those for an upper and a lower pin because the platen 3 is round. In addition, a pin guide 5 has holes 51-1 for #1 and holes 51-24 for #24, totaling 24 holes, through which wire 4 is inserted. Then, for instance, a coil spring 1 with high stiffness is mounted in pins #1, #2, #3, #4 and #21, #22, #23, #24, while a coil spring with low stiffness is mounted in pins #11, #12, #13 and #14. In other pins, a coil spring with moderate stiffness is mounted. In this manner, the impact pressure on the platen 3 becomes uniform.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Field of Industrial Application] The present invention relates to a print head, and particularly to a print head in which stiffness settings of a coil spring are improved.

Conventionally, all print heads of this type have springs of the same slenderness inserted therein.

Since the above-described conventional print heads are equipped with springs having the same stiffness, they have the disadvantage that the impact pressure against the round platen cannot be uniformly applied.

In other words, because the platen is round, the distance from the platen to each pin and wire is different, and even though the impact pressure of each pin is the same for the print head itself, the impact pressure on the platen surface is different. In printers having #1.2.23.24 end pins, the impact pressure is small and #11.12.13.
The impact pressure will be large at the center pin such as 14.

In order to make the impact pressure uniform, adjustments are made by changing the thickness of the medium (cap) between the spring and the armature, but this has the disadvantage of requiring a huge amount of adjustment man-hours.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to eliminate the above-mentioned drawbacks and to provide a print head that can achieve uniform impact pressure against the platen.
