Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent color inks from mixing with each other and maintain favorable printing quality, by affixing an ink-impermeable film to a surface of an ink ribbon on the hammer side at a hammer printing position in an impact color printer. CONSTITUTION:A color ink ribbon 3 is passed in the direction of an arrow through a passage between an impact hammer 1 and a printing paper 2. A ribbon-feeding roller 5 is driven to rotate in the direction of an arrow to thereby feed the ribbon 3. An inking roller 6 is pressed against the roller 5 through the ribbon 3, has an axis of rotation parallel with that of the roller 5, and is rotated in the direction of an arrow. The width of the roller 6 is equal to that of the ribbon 3, the roller 6 is divided into four sections in the width direction thereof, and is provided with 4 color ink holding parts 6A, 6B, 6C, 6D in a belt form along the rotating direction thereof.

Conventionally, ink-impregnated ribbons are formed endlessly and circulated in a fixed path in order to perform color printing in a printing method in which printing is performed on printing paper via an ink ribbon using an ink ribbon or a hammer. Ink of the desired color is applied to each section divided in the width direction of the +7 &n at the position, and an ink ribbon to which multiple colors of ink are applied in a strip along the lengthwise direction is stamped. The ink ribbon (by moving the ink ribbon in a direction perpendicular to its running direction) by an appropriate control method when printing on printing paper through the ink ribbon by an impact hammer. The desired color ink applying portion is selected and stamped, and the ink of the desired color is leached to perform printing. In this type of color printing method, since the impact hammer comes into contact with the ink application parts of different colors of the ink ribbon, when printing a certain color, the ink of a different color that was attached during previous printing is supplied to the ink ribbon. However, there is a problem in that as printing is repeated, colors of ink on the ink ribbon are mixed, resulting in a decrease in print quality.

FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an embodiment of an ink color mixing prevention device according to the present invention. 1 is an impact hammer located opposite to the printing paper 2. 3 is a color ink ribbon, which is made to travel in the direction of the arrow along a path that passes between the hammer 1 and the printing paper 2. J M N3 U It is endless, made of a material that can be impregnated with ink, such as cloth, and has a predetermined strength against marking. 4 is a ribbon guide. The ribbon feed roller 5 is driven and rotated in the direction of the arrow, thereby causing the ribbon 30 to travel. An ink roller 6 is pressed against the ribbon feed roller 5 via the ribbon 3, has a rotation axis parallel to the ribbon feed roller 5, and rotates in the direction of the arrow. The width of the ink roller 6 is the same as the width of the ink ribbon 3, and its width direction is divided into four parts, and band-shaped ink holding parts 6A, 6B, 6C, and 6D of four colors are formed along the rotation direction. . Replenishment of each color ink onto the surface of the ink roller 6 is performed by appropriate means.
