Abstract

PURPOSE:To obtain a small-size serial printer capable of two-color printing with almost same speeds if digit number and printing content are the same even when the first color print is made or the second color print is made. CONSTITUTION:A holder 4 to hold type 3B for the first color printing and type 3R for the second color printing is rotationally driven on a shaft 5 and also slided along the shaft. An action locus-determining means for the pressing part 7a of a hammer 7 to press the type 3 on a paper is carried by a carriage 8 movable in the direction of the shaft 5 independently from the holder 4, and the carriage 7 is moved toward the shaft 5 by carrying means 12, 13, 13a, 14 and 14a. The selection of the first color printing and the second color printing is made by a relative position control means consisting of a biasting means 25 to energize the holder 4 in the opposite direction of the carrying direction and a relative position determining means P for the action locus of the hammer 7 and the types.

If a printer is normally used with a calculator, etc., the calculator't'
In most cases, the number of digits to be handled is η less than the maximum possible number of digits, so if you use the above-mentioned method, %l! In the case of one-color printing, since printing starts from the lower VI (waiting position III), the type wheel can return to the waiting position as soon as the necessary printing is completed, so there is no problem in terms of printing speed. ! @In the case of two-color printing, it is necessary to print blanks for a certain number of digits from the high-order digits, and then print the necessary numerical values to the lowest digits! Because of this, the printing wheel had to be moved by all the digits of am at all times, which had the disadvantage that the printing speed was slow to a trickle. Therefore, the mental irritation caused to users of such printer-equipped calculators during operation was also a major drawback. Also, with this Hinoki printer, multicolor printing on IR3R3 was not possible at all.

The carry cam 13, that is, the carriage 8, is integrally carried up by a pitch of 111A of the teeth 14a each time the drive shaft 12 meshes with the disposed teeth 14a. As is clear from the above explanation, since the hammer drive cam 1o and the carry cam 13 rotate integrally with the drive shaft 12, the printing and carry cam 13 are rotated in one rotation of the drive shaft 12. 11g 1 turn corner to complete the injury!
f5600 is divided into two parts for printing/) During the period when the marker 7 is moving, the strip 13a of the digit avoidance cam 13 does not produce a lead (the carriage 8 is powered in the direction of the axial force of the drive WIJ 12). φ), and after the printing operation is completed, 7 is finished dyeing 15
The part that causes the lead of a is l! 1l114a The cam phase is completely locked as there is no carry when it meshes with a. In addition, in order to return the carriage 8 to the standby position * after printing is completed with a digit shift rL at an arbitrary M'f, the positioning horizontal 14 (that is, the tooth 14a) must be
Forcibly separate from. At this time, a tension coil spring 21 is stretched between a part of the carriage 8 and an immovable part such as the frame 15 as means for applying a return force to the carriage 8.

Next, the one ink supply means will be explained. Figure 8 shows only the part related to ink mooring 15N! FIG. 3 is a plan cross-sectional view of the example. 3o is a cylindrical ink roll made of foam-like material impregnated with ink, and is provided on the vertical wall of the carriage 8, consisting of an ink roll 50B for the first color and an ink roll 30R for the second color. The ink roll shaft 29 is fitted loosely into the holes or notches 8h and 61, and the separator 29L, which is integrally provided with the n150B and 3ORH ink roll shafts 29, is inserted into the ink roll shaft 29.
So the elements are arranged. 28 is an ink roll cover that is pivotally supported on the ink roll shaft 29, which holds the ink roll 50 between Mzacs 28d and its arm end 28a and ZSB6cz.
1 flange 4b and circumferential lip 4.
I'm holding it in between. Although not shown in the figure, in this state, the ink roll cover 28 is pushed in the direction of the arrow by a biasing means such as a spring.

Even if there is a relative movement in the axial direction (for example, even if the key ?+3 Tsuji 8 works relative to each other as shown by the two-dot chain line), the above-mentioned relative position g1 of the ink roll 30 and the type wheel in the -tooth direction remains unchanged. t, always, 30B is type wheel 3-38*!1 3B, 3
゜R has a type wheel S-4SRKII. Therefore, in this example, the printed digit of type 3B is always W41 color mark 7.

As explained above, in the case of the first printed character, the second printed character, and even in the case of multi-color printing, printing starts from the lowest digit, and w4 is used for color selection (B selection) and for multicolor printing. 2 color selection (
In the case of [R selection] and in the case of other color selections, even if fn is m, the n digit (f-1B in case of no *m*) is selected.
Since the timing of character selection for the second digit is only slightly different, if the same character combination and number of digits are printed, it is possible to print one line in approximately the same amount of time.This eliminates the disadvantages of the conventional method. It is possible to realize a type-type serial printer that can print in two colors, which has never existed before, and can have two or more symbol type wheels completely independently. This type of printer is innovatively useful in fields where this type of printer is used (e.g., calculators). There is no doubt that the present invention has significant effects.
