る。この端部は外部端子４Ａとして利用される。 In this type of thermal printer head, a flexible cable is sometimes used to lead the conductor connected to the heat generating part to the outside, and in that case, the conductor of the flexible cable and the end (external terminal part) of the conductor connected to the heat generating part are connected. I try to connect them by overlapping them. To explain this using a diagram, 1
2 is a heat sink made of aluminum or the like, and 2 is an insulating substrate such as ceramic, on the surface of which a heat generating part 3 is installed. The heat generating section 3 is formed by arranging a plurality of point-shaped heat generating elements (for example, formed of a thin film) in a single row or in multiple rows and multiple columns. A conductor 4 for supplying current to the heat generating portion 3 is formed as a thin film on the surface of the insulating substrate 2. Reference numeral 5 denotes a wear-resistant protective film that protects the surfaces of the conductor 4 and the heat generating portion 3, and is formed on the surface of the insulating substrate 2 by vapor deposition or the like. At this time, the protective film 5 is formed leaving the ends of the conductor 4 intact. This end portion is used as the external terminal 4A.

まれる。 Reference numeral 6 denotes a flexible cable, which, as is well known, is constructed by forming a conductive foil on the surface of a heat-resistant resin sheet such as polyimide resin. 7
is a printed circuit board used to support the flexible cable 6 if necessary. The flexible cables are overlapped so that the conductor foil on the surface thereof contacts the end of the conductor 4, that is, the external terminal 4A. In order to fix the overlapping position, a mounting bracket 8 is applied to the overlapping portion and fixed with screws 9 or the like. The screws 9 are screwed into the heat sink 1.

寿命が著るしく短かくなることがある。 By the way, in such a configuration, the external terminal 4A is not covered with the protective film 5 and is exposed because the flexible cable 6 is overlapped with the external terminal 4A as described above. Therefore, since it is used exposed to the outside, if there is moisture in the atmosphere in which it is used, the external terminal 4A may be corroded. Particularly when aluminum is used as the conductor 4, its tendency to corrode is remarkable. Furthermore, if copper (the surface of which may be plated with gold) is used as the conductor foil of the flexible cable 6, if this copper and the aluminum external terminal 4A overlap, the local battery may be damaged due to the presence of surrounding moisture. formation, and corrosive effects also occur here. Therefore, when the external terminal 4A is exposed in this way, the service life may be significantly shortened depending on the conditions of the atmosphere in which it is used.

るみ止めのためにも有効である。 An embodiment of this invention will be explained with reference to the drawings. As mentioned above, the external terminal 4 protrudes from the protective film 5.
A moisture-resistant film 10 is formed by applying a moisture-resistant paint, such as an epoxy paint, to the surface of A. In this case, as shown in the figure, from the surface of the protective film 5 to the external terminal 4A
It is also necessary to form the moisture-resistant film 10 over the surface of the flexible cable 6.
This is because it is necessary to prevent moisture from penetrating not only the surface of the external terminal 4A but also the inner surface of the protective film 5 from the boundary between the external terminal 4A and the protective film 5. cable 6
This is to prevent corrosion at the overlapped areas. Further, a moisture-resistant film 10 is formed on the surface of the mounting bracket 8 and the inner surface of the screw hole of the heat sink 1 into which the screw 9 is screwed, as shown in the figure. According to this, corrosion on the surface of the mounting bracket 10 can be avoided, and moisture can also be prevented from penetrating through the boundary between the mounting bracket 10 and the flexible cable 6. Furthermore, application to the screw holes is also effective for preventing the screws 9 from loosening.
上記のように構成すると、保護膜５から露出し

するようになつて都合がよい。 With the above configuration, the surface of the external terminal 4A exposed from the protective film 5 is covered with the moisture-resistant film 10, so corrosion due to moisture is prevented.
In addition, the moisture-resistant film 10 is formed across the interface between the external terminal 4A and the protective film 5, and also across the overlapped portion with the flexible cable 6, so that the protective film 5
This makes it possible to reliably prevent moisture from entering from the interface between the flexible cable 6 and corrosion caused by local batteries formed at the overlapping portions of the conductor foil of the flexible cable 6 and the external terminals 4A. Therefore, there is no problem in using a conductive metal such as aluminum or copper as the conductor 4, and there is no need to use a corrosion-resistant metal such as gold. This is advantageous in that it also reduces manufacturing costs.
