摘要： A color thermal printer includes feeder rollers for feeding thermosensitive recording material through a feeding path. A thermal head operates for thermal recording of an image in a recording region of the recording material being fed. An unused region is defined outside the recording region. A photo fixer fixes the image on the recording material by application of ultraviolet or violet rays thereto. A liquid crystal shutter unit is disposed between the photo fixer and the recording material, and includes plural shutter segments. The plural shutter segments are arranged in a form of plural parallel lines, and changeable independently between an opaque state and a transparent state, and when in the opaque state, block the ultraviolet or violet rays, and when in the transparent state, cause the rays to pass. A controller controls the liquid crystal shutter unit in synchronism with the feeder rollers, sets at least one of the shutter segments in the transparent state if the at least one is opposed to the recording region in feeding of the recording material, and sets at least one of the shutter segments in the opaque state if the at least one is opposed to the unused region in feeding of the recording material.

摘要： There is disclosed a heat sensitive type printer wherein glass plates (36, 37, 38) are secured at one ends to thermal heads (26, 27, 28), and extend substantially in parallel to a paper transport path of a heat sensitive color recording paper (14). Surface luminous devices (31, 32) for fixing coloring layers of the recording paper optically are disposed adjacent to heat sinks of the thermal heads with their light emission surfaces facing the paper transport path through the glass plates. Cooling fans send air into between the heat sinks and the surface luminous devices, to cool the heat sinks. Thereafter, the air guide guides the air to flow along a gap between the light emission surface and the glass plate, thereby to cool the light emission surface.

摘要： A flat-type fluorescent lamp is used as a light source of a color thermal printer. The flat-type fluorescent lamp has a yellow luminescent surface for emitting yellow fixing rays, and a magenta luminescent surface for emitting magenta fixing rays. The respective luminescent surfaces are disposed back to back and are selectively activated by a lamp driving circuit. The flat-type fluorescent lamp is rotatable between a first position where the yellow luminescent surface confronts a recording surface of a color thermosensitive recording paper, and a second position where the magenta luminescent surface confront the recording surface of the recording paper.

摘要： A fluorescent lamp comprises a cathode panel, an anode panel and a light-output panel. A filament and grid electrodes are attached to the cathode panel. The anode panel is provided with a reflection layer and a fluorescent layer. The light-output panel is made of a transparent glass plate and is disposed on a plane different from the cathode panel and the anode panel. An electron beam emitted from the filament collides with the fluorescent layer. Upon this, the fluorescent layer is excited to emit light. The emitted light is reflected by the reflection layer to radiate from the light-output panel toward the outside of the fluorescent lamp. At this time, the light does not pass through the grid electrodes and the filament so that optical unevenness is prevented from occurring.

摘要： A color thermal printing method capable of preventing a color registration shift and shading is unable with a color thermosensitive recording sheet having cyan, magenta, and yellow thermosensitive coloring layers, respectively formed on a base in this order. A thermal sensitivity becomes lower the nearer the thermosensitive coloring layer is to the base. The thermosensitive coloring layer having a lower sensitivity is printed at an earlier timing to make the centers of three color print areas coincident with each other. According to a preferred embodiment, a preliminary pressed running section is provided in front of each print area. In the preliminary pressed running section, a thermal head is preheated and pressed against a color thermosensitive recording sheet. In order to reduce a change in the friction coefficient between the preliminary pressed running section and the print area, the heat energy for the preheating is set to a bias heat energy having a level just under a coloring energy. This bias heat energy having a level just under a coloring energy changes with color so that the preliminary pressed running section is set differently for each color. During the preliminary pressed running operation, a pulse motor for driving a platen drum is driven by the same predetermined number of drive pulses for all three colors.

摘要： A yellow fixing light source of a color thermal printer comprises an aluminum substrate, light emitting elements aligned thereon, and reflectors mounted thereon. The reflector reflects the light emitted from the light emitting element. A part of a power line constituting a wiring pattern is formed on a glass epoxy plate of the reflector. The wiring pattern is prevented from having a dense portion and becomes a simple form. Thus, it is possible to reduce a cost to be taken for forming the wiring pattern. A degree of freedom for raying out the wiring pattern increases and a breadth of the wiring pattern may be widened so that it is possible to prevent luminous unevenness from being caused due to voltage drop to be induced by wiring resistance.

摘要： An optical fixing unit for yellow fixes a yellow thermosensitive coloring layer of a color thermosensitive recording paper. This fixation is carried out by simultaneously driving two ultraviolet lamps for yellow. The respective ultraviolet lamps are repeatedly energized since switching transistors corresponding thereto are repeatedly turned on and off based on switching signals. The switching signals respectively inputted to the switching transistors have phases shifted by 180° with each other so that emission phases of the ultraviolet lamps are shifted. As a result, a peak value of a total current flowing in the ultraviolet lamps is reduced, and a change thereof is kept in a narrow range.
