A printing head comprises an elongate head substrate provided with a line of printing dots along a first longitudinal edge of the substrate, and an array of drive IC's provided on the head substrate along a second longitudinal edge of the substrate. The substrate is further provided with a plurality of connection terminals adjacent to the second longitudinal edge. The drive IC array is rendered shorter than the printing dot line to provide two excess portions at both ends of the head substrate, and the connection terminals are locally arranged within the respective excess end portions without overlapping the drive IC array longitudinally of the head substrate.

An image reader (A) includes a plurality of light sources (6) arranged in line, the light from which travels through a channel (14) and irradiates a linear read area (S). The channel (14) is divided into a plurality of sections (14a) by a plurality of partitions (15). Thus, uniform brightness is obtained in the whole part of the linear read area (S), including both ends and the central part.

In a connector used in a print head, each of a plurality of terminal pins has at one end portion thereof an integral grip portion for gripping a circuit board. The terminal pins are spaced a predetermined distance from one anther in juxtaposed relation to one another, with the grip portions disposed at the same side. Each of the terminal pins is inserted into a connector housing from the other end portion of the terminal pin, so that the terminal pins are attached to the connector housing.

A drive IC for a printing head is rectangular with first and second longer sides, and first and second shorter sides. The drive IC has a multiplicity of drive output pads arranged adjacent to and along the first longer side. The drive IC also has control signal pads which include at least a data-in pad, a data-out pad, a strobe pad, a logic power supply pad, and a clock pad. The control signal pads are arranged adjacent to the respective shorter sides.

A thermal printhead is provided which comprises an insulating head substrate, a conductor pattern formed on the head substrate, a row of heating dots formed on the head substrate in electrical conduction with the conductor pattern, an array of drive ICs mounted on the head substrate and spaced from the row of heating dots, a resin body enclosing the array of drive ICs, and a protective coating covering the conductor pattern together with the row of heating dots. The protective coating comprises a smaller thickness portion at least at the row of heating dots, and a larger thickness portion held in contact with the resin body and extending to a position short of the row of heating dots.
摘要:
A connector (1) according to the present invention includes a housing (2) and terminal pins (3) mounted on the housing (2) for electrically connecting connection terminals (16) of a circuit board (15) to a conductor pattern of a flat cable (11). The housing (2) is bonded to the circuit board (15) by an adhesive for mechanical connection thereto. The housing (2) has a projection (5) which, together with the circuit board (15), forms a recess (17) for applying an adhesive thereto.

A thermal printhead according to the present invention includes a stepped heat sink plate (1) having an upper first supporting surface (1a) and a lower second supporting surface (1b), a head substrate (2) mounted on the first supporting surface (1a) of the heat sink plate (1) and formed with printing dots (3), and a printed circuit board (14) mounted on the second supporting surface (1b) of the heat sink plate (1) and formed with various wiring patterns. The head substrate (2) has an edge projecting from the first supporting surface (1a) of the heat sink plate (1) toward the second supporting surface (1b). The printed circuit board (14) overlaps the projecting edge of the head substrate (2) with a predetermined spacing (18) therebetween.
