An apparatus incorporates the above method.
44 Method for the manufacture of an armature assembly for matrix print heads of the hinged-clapper-armature construction US387501 1989-07-28 US5175922A 1993-01-05 Bernd Gugel; Johann Stempfle
A method for production of an armature device group for matrix print heads of the clapper-armature construction is based on connecting and jointly processing prefabricated parts (1, 2) such that elongated armatures with wide armature arms (4) and narrower armature arms (5) are generated. For further decreasing the production costs and for increasing the precision of the armature coordination, for facilitating mounting and for saving assembly steps, an armature circle (1) is punched out with openings (6). An annular elastic shaped plate (2) of sheet metal is then attached covering the opening (6) and the radially outer and radially inner armature arms (4, 5) are then cut out employing a method such as thermal cutting or, respectively, water-torch cutting, without damaging of the shaped plate (2).
45 Dot printer head US707900 1991-05-30 US5096313A 1992-03-17 Masami Horii
A dot printer head including a housing that contains electromagnets toward its back end, the electromagnets having cores positioned opposite to armatures which are supported detachably against the core. The housing slidingly supports needles connected to the armatures and pushed in retracting direction thereof. An armature stopper made of an elastic substance is fixedly attahced to the inside of a cover which closes the opening at the back end of the housing, the armature stopper being in contact with the vicinities of the free ends of the armatures. A spacer is made of a substance with a linear expansion coefficient such as to ensure the same expansion as that of the armature stopper in thickness, the spacer connecting the inside of the cover to the opening edge of the housing. In this setup, when the armature stopper extends in thickness in keeping with the temperature rise inside the housing during printing, the spacer expands by exactly the same thickness to retract the cover. This allows the armatures to return always to the same position.

53 Web feed, web cutting and ribbon feed means for a stationery mosaic printer US745827 1976-11-29 US4165191A 1979-08-21 Stanley J. Dickson; Albert E. Castleton
This invention is concerned with a mosaic printer, for example, of the needle print head type which comprises a stationary print head and means for feeding an article, for example a web of paper to be printed, in a direction orthogonal to a row of print devices of the head and in synchronism with operation of the print devices so that, by selective operation of the print devices, the article is provided by the print devices with a pattern which constitutes visual data.
54 Random access line printer US476581 1974-06-05 US3970183A 1976-07-20 Prentice Robinson; Paul S. Ramsden, Jr.
An impact printer of the dot matrix type capable of printing in either the forward or reverse direction. Means are provided for determining the position of the print head at any given instant. Upon completion of a line of print the print head is abruptly halted. The next line of characters is examined to determine the end points of its character field. Comparisons are made to determine whether the print head lies within or beyond the end points. In cases where the print head lies beyond the end points of the character field, the printing occurs by moving the head in a direction toward the closest end point and then printing. If the print head occupies the location between the end points the position of the head is loaded into a pair of counters which are simultaneously counted up and down respectively. The outputs of the counters are continuously compared against the values representing the end point locations whereupon the first favorable comparison determines the shortest distance of print head travel for starting printing. High speed electronic circuitry is provided for storing data representing the next line to be printed in both forward and reverse formats whereupon the decision as to the direction in which data is printed automatically controls the appropriate storage medium.Novel video detection means is provided both for determining the direction of head movement at any instant and for controlling the printing positions. The use of delayed strobes derived directly from the video control allows printing to start immediately from the rest position, and provides accurate registration of delayed strobes relative to strobe pulses regardless of the velocity of the carriage.The printer has the ability of printing expanded characters and includes electronic circuitry to prevent data in the expanded character format from being lost in cases where the inputted data representing the expanded character format exceeds the print line capacity of the printer whereby any overflow will automatically be printed on the second succeeding line of print.
55 Wire recording and mechanism therefor US3715020D 1970-09-21 US3715020A 1973-02-06 NORDIN R
A flexible wire with an input end and an output end extends through an arcuately bent tubular guide that has an input end portion, an output end portion and an arcuate connecting section. The output end portion of the guide is relatively secured. Its input end portion is mounted for movement longitudinally of the guide. A restraint is arranged about the input end portion of the guide and has a first condition in which said input end portion is secured from moving and a second condition in which the output end portion is free from restraint to permit guide movement. The wire and guide are proportioned such that a force applied to the input end of said wire axially thereof will (1) cause the wire to slide through and thereby project the output end of said wire from the output end portion of the guide, if the restraint is in said first condition; and (2) cause the guide to extend at its arcuate section in a direction away from the output end of said wire in consequence of frictional coupling of the guide and wire, if the restraint is in said second condition. This switching phenomenon is employed in a recorder having means for applying an oscillating force simultaneously to an input end of each wire in an array of flexible wires which respectively are arranged through arcuately bent flexible tubular guides. The input end portion of each guide is arranged for selective restraint, and release from restraint, in a fixed position such that: 1. WHEN RESTRAINED, A RIGID PATH IS PROVIDED FOR THE ASSOCIATED WIRE BY SUCH GUIDE AND, ALTERNATELY DURING RESPECTIVE PHASES OF EACH OSCILLATORY CYCLE, THE OUTPUT END OF THE WIRE WILL BE (A) FIRST PROJECTED FROM THE OUTPUT END PORTION OF THE GUIDE INTO PRINTING POSITION RELATIVE A RECORD CARRIER, AND (B) THEN WITHDRAWN; AND 2. WHEN FREE OR RELEASED FROM RESTRAINT, ALTERNATELY DURING RESPECTIVE PHASES OF EACH OSCILLATORY CYCLE, SUCH GUIDE AND ITS ASSOCIATED WIRE (A) FIRST BECOME FRICTIONALLY COUPLED AND BEND TO CAUSE ELONGATION OF INTERMEDIATE PORTIONS THEREOF WHICH ARE REMOTE FROM THE OUTPUT END OF THE WIRE, THEREBY TO PREVENT ITS PROJECTION INTO PRINTING POSITION, AND (B) THEN RETURN TO ORIGINAL POSITION. A character generator produces effects which are representative of the characters to be reproduced. It is coupled to restraining assemblies for the guides, whereby, simultaneously in one phase of each oscillatory cycle, selected wires will be projected for printing and the remaining wires will be prevented from printing.
56 System and method for printing alpha-numerics and graphics US3711646D 1971-01-25 US3711646A 1973-01-16 VERMILION E; SEELEY E; LEFCORT M
System and method for handling a plurality of electronic signals representing both alpha-numeric characters and graphics data. The coded alpha-numeric bits are directed to a decoder for conversion to a dot matrix and then to a writing head for printing on electrosensitive paper. The coded graphics bits are not relayed to the decoder but instead are transmitted to the writing head for direct print out on the electrosensitive paper. A control circuit monitors the incoming bit stream to shift the terminal between alpha-numeric and graphics printing as the arriving data pulses require.
