The operation of the apparatus with this configuration is such that in the printing state, the drive shaft 1 rotates in the direction of arrow A, and the print head 11 moves in the direction of arrow E along the guide shaft 12 by the action of the helical groove 1-a of the drive shaft 1. During this time, the fan-shaped lever 3 is swung in the direction of the arrow C by the drive gear 2 and in the direction of the arrow D by the action of the spring 10 at the position shown in FIG.
When the desired printing is completed, the drive shaft 1 reverses its rotational direction from the direction of arrow A to the direction of arrow B, and the print head 11 begins to move in the direction of arrow F. Fan-shaped lever 3
meshes with the drive gear 2 due to the action of the spring 10,
The fan-shaped lever 3 rotates in the direction of arrow D, and as shown in FIG.
While the state shown by the dotted chain line is reached, the pawl 5 rotates the ratchet wheel 6 by a predetermined amount in the direction of arrow D, and the paper feed roller 13 rotates in the direction of arrow D together with the paper feed shaft 7.
Feeds the recording paper by a predetermined amount. When the drive shaft 1 further rotates in the direction of arrow B, the fan-shaped lever 3 is swung in the direction D by the drive gear 2 and in the direction C by the action of the spring 10 at the position shown in FIG. When the drive shaft 1 rotates in the direction of arrow B and the print head moves in the direction of arrow F and returns to the waiting position, the drive shaft 1 rotates in the direction of arrow B.
The direction is reversed to the direction of arrow A, and the print head 11 starts moving in the direction of arrow E, and starts printing when it reaches the print area. The fan-shaped lever 3 is engaged with the driving gear 2 by the action of the spring 10, rotates in the direction of arrow C, and swings at the position shown in FIG. Conventional paper feeding devices for small printers having such a configuration and operation have the following drawbacks. At both ends of the reciprocating rotation, the drive gear 1 and the fan-shaped lever 3 repeatedly oscillate while colliding with each tooth of the drive gear 1 due to the action of the spring 10, so firstly, the drive gear 1 and the fan-shaped lever 3 collide. Noise is generated due to repeated sounds.
Second, when converting reciprocating rotation into fixed rotation in one direction by oscillation at both ends, a one-way clutch with a large play and a large number of parts, such as a pawl and ratchet wheel, must be used. It is impossible to use a simple one-way clutch with small play, such as a roller clutch. Also,
Since it is impossible to obtain a fixed amount of rotation in both directions on the same axis as the drive shaft 1 that rotates arbitrarily in both directions, miniaturization is difficult.

The operation of the apparatus with this configuration is such that in the printing state, the drive shaft 1 rotates in the direction of arrow I, and the print head 11 moves in the direction of arrow G along the guide shaft 12 by the action of the helical groove 1-a of the drive shaft 1. When the desired printing is completed, the drive shaft 1
, the direction of rotation is reversed from the direction of arrow I to the direction of arrow J, and the print head begins to move in the direction of arrow H. At the time when the desired printing is completed, the ratchet wheel 18 is locked to the stopper 21, and the coil spring 16 inserted into the drive shaft 1 to transmit torque in the direction of arrow I to the driven gear 14 is loosened. , the driven gear 14 and the ratchet wheels 17, 18 are at rest. When the drive shaft 1 reverses and starts rotating in the direction of arrow J, the frictional force between the drive shaft 1 and the coil spring 15 increases,
The torque of the drive shaft 1 is transmitted to the driven gear 14, and the driven gear 14 and ratchet wheels 17 and 18 rotate in the direction of arrow J. When the rotation angle reaches θ, the pawl 17 of the pawl wheel 17
-b is permanently locked to the stopper 21, the coil spring 15 is loosened, and the frictional force between the drive shaft 1 and the coil spring 15 is reduced, and the driven gear 14 and the ratchet wheels 17, 1
8 stops. While the driven gear 14 rotates by the rotation angle θ in the direction of the arrow J, the paper feed gear 19, which is constantly engaged with the driven gear 14, rotates in the direction of the arrow L.
Due to the increase in frictional force between the coil spring 20 and the paper feed shaft 7, torque in the direction of arrow L is transmitted to the paper feed shaft 7.
The paper feed roller 13 rotates by a predetermined amount in the direction of arrow L to feed the paper. Even if the drive shaft 1 rotates further, the coil spring 15 is loosened because the pawl 17 is locked to the stopper 21, and the driven gear 14,
The ratchet wheels 17 and 18 are stopped in the state shown in FIG. When the print head 11 moves in the direction of arrow H and returns to the waiting position, the drive shaft 1 reverses from the direction of arrow J to the direction of arrow L, and the print head 11 begins to move in the direction of arrow G, and when it reaches the printing area. Start printing. When the drive shaft 1 begins to rotate in the direction of arrow I, the frictional force between the drive shaft 1 and the coil spring 16 increases, and the torque of the drive shaft 1 is transmitted to the driven gear 14. rotates by θ in the direction of arrow I, and the pawl 18-b of the pawl wheel 18 moves to the stopper 21.
The driven gear 14, the ratchet wheel 17,
18 is stopped in a state as shown in FIG. During this time, the paper feed gear 19 rotates by a predetermined amount in the direction of arrow K, but since the coil spring 20 is loosened, no torque is transmitted to the paper feed shaft 7 and the paper feed roller 13. The drive shaft 1 further rotates in the direction of arrow I, and when the print head 11 completes the desired printing, the drive shaft 1 is reversed again and the series of operations described above are repeated.
A slight torque (loosening torque) is also generated when the coil springs 15, 16, 20 are loosened; Since the torque of the coil spring 20 does not reach the point of operating the paper feed roller 13, the explanation has been omitted.

According to the above-mentioned device, the driven gear 14, which performs reciprocating rotation, stops without shaking at both ends of its rotation stroke, so there is no collision or noise, and a clutch with small play can be used for the next operation. Further, since the drive shaft 1, which rotates an arbitrary amount in both directions, can give a fixed amount of back and forth rotation to the coaxial driven gear 14, it is possible to reduce the size.
