摘要:
An electromechanical actuator has a stack composed of electromechanical elements, and an inactive element intervening in the stack to divide it into two sections. In a wire-dot printing head using the actuator, the stack sections are successively energized to increase a forward stroke of a printing wire for a high speed printing. In another aspect, an electromechanical actuator used in a wire-dot printer has a spring for regulating and braking a rearward stroke of a printing wire or a stopper such that the wire can be prevented from being moved back beyond an initial position. Alternatively, a stopper is incorporated to forcibly stop the wire at the initial position during the rearward stroke thereof. In yet another aspect, an electromechanical actuator has a stack composed of electromechanical elements, and the stack is supported by a block through a leaf spring securely joined therebetween to prevent generation of large stress in the stack.

A piezoelectric printing head includes an annular base frame and a plurality of piezoelectric actuator assemblies mounted on the base frame. Each actuator assembly includes a piezoelectric element having one end rigidly secured to the base frame and another free end, an armature having a base end and a tip end to which a printing wire is rigidly connected, and a magnifying mechanism. When the piezoelectric element is electrically energized, a displacement of the piezoelectric element is magnified and then transmitted to the printing wire. Between the base frame and the base end of the armature there is provided a vibration damping buffer member.

A laminated piezoelectric element which includes a laminate of piezoelectric ceramic plates and inner electrodes. The piezoelectric ceramic plates are laminated alternately together with the inner electrodes. The laminate is cut so as to have a peripheral surface. A positive outer electrode is connected to one group of inner electrodes at a peripheral surface of the laminate, and a negative outer electrode is connected to another group of inner electrodes at the peripheral surface of the laminate. A coating of fine ceramic particles is applied to, or a ceramic layer is sputtered on, the peripheral surface of the piezoelectric ceramic plates so that the insulation between adjacent inner electrodes is improved.

A secondary protection IC is connected in parallel with a rechargeable battery and controls the charge and discharge of the rechargeable battery separately from a primary protection IC. The secondary protection IC includes a detection circuit that detects an overcharge or overdischarge of the rechargeable battery, a regulator that stabilizes the voltage of the rechargeable battery and outputs the stabilized voltage to the outside of the rechargeable battery, and a control terminal that controls the regulator with a control signal. Each of the detection circuit and the regulator performs a normal operation or stops operating based on the voltage of the rechargeable battery and the control signal.
