Abstract

PURPOSE:To reduce manufacturing cost and improve ink compatibility by removing grease from the surface of a daisy wheel base after eliminating its residual distortion, then forming anchor holes using an etching technique and soaking the daisy wheel base in a plating liquid containing nickel sulfenaminate after pretreatment procedures such as neutralization, catalyzing and activation. CONSTITUTION:The residual distortion generated when formed of a daisy wheel base 1a is removed by annealing the base formed with resin so that a large wheel part 5 and a small wheel part 8 are provided. Next, the surface of the daisy wheel base 1a is degreased using a surfactant. After the 5, anchor holes with a surface roughness of about 3mum are formed uniformly and densely over the entire surface of the daisy wheel base 1a by applying an etching preparation containing an inorganic acid. In addition, the base 1a is soaked in a plating bath containing nickel sulfaminate after pretreatment procedures such as neutralization, cataiyzing and activation and further various pretreatment steps. Subsequently, a nickel coat 9 is formed on the surface of the daisy wheel base 1a. Thus it is possible to improve the ink compatibility and abrasion resistance of the daisy wheel and obtain the daisy wheel with stable quality at low cost.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION <Industrial Application Field> The present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a printer type wheel incorporated as a part of an electronic check writer. <Prior Art> In general, in a printer built into an electronic check writer, a plurality of type wheels are fitted onto the character wheel shaft in parallel, corresponding to the number of digits used. Conventionally, zinc die-cast products have been used for this type wheel, but the cost is extremely high because the character portions of the type wheel have to be engraved.

For this reason, it is known that the type wheel is made of an impressive piece of engineering plastic, such as acetal copolymer resin, which eliminates the need for engraving on the character part of the type wheel. Because of its water repellency, it did not have good ink affinity and also had problems in terms of abrasion resistance. Therefore, in order to improve ink affinity, the type surface of the type wheel is roughened by a shipt blasting method or a burning flame method, thereby imparting ink affinity to the type surface of the type wheel. <Problem to be solved by the invention> However, in order to roughen only the type surface of the type wheel using both of the above methods, special equipment is required, which increases the surface treatment cost of the type wheel. According to , the disadvantage was that the processing quality lacked uniformity. Regarding the abrasion resistance strength, no treatment was performed to increase this strength.

<Means for Solving the Problems> The present invention was developed to solve the above-mentioned problems, and consists of an annular type ring base having a plurality of type characters arranged at a constant pitch in the circumferential direction, using an acetal copolymer. After removing residual strain on the type ring base, the surface is degreased, anchor holes are formed on the entire surface of the type ring base by enoching treatment with a liquid containing an inorganic acid, and then neutralization and catalyst removal are performed. After the pretreatment of application and activation, a nickel film is formed on the surface of the type transfer substrate by immersion treatment in a plating solution containing nickel sulfamate.
