CHAPTER II THEORY OF OPERATION OUTLINE OF MECHANISMS 2.1.1 Print Mechanism Structure of Thermal Head This machine uses thermal transfer printing. The thermal print head has a heat generator consisting of 384 heating elements that are vertically aligned as shown in Fig. 2.1-1. Each heating element is 0.08 mm wide by 0.0545 mm height (0.0705 mm per pitch).
Page 14
[For stamp tape cassettes] If the selected heating element(s) generates heat, the porous-stamp tape will be melted so that a pore (pores) will be formed in the tape. The tape is advanced and the next heating cycle is repeated, thus forming a character of pores on the tape. The printed stamp tape can be used as the face of a stamp.
2.1.2 Roller Holder ASSY Setting & Retracting Mechanism This mechanism consists of the release gear train, roller release rod, and roller holder/head ASSY. The roller holder ASSY incorporates the platen holder and the sub roller holder. These holders support the platen and the tape feed sub roller so that they can move perpendicularly to the thermal head and the tape feed roller respectively to apply the platen with a certain pressure against the thermal head to ensure the tape feeding even if the tape thickness changes.

2.1.3 Tape & Ribbon Feed Mechanism This mechanism consists of the tape feed motor, the gear train, and the roller holder ASSY. Tape Feeding The platen becomes the state pressing the tape and the ink ribbon (only the tape when mounting the heat sensitive tape cassette) against the thermal head when printing, as described in Subsection 2.1.2.
Page 18
Adhesive Base Tape Feeding (only for laminated tape cassettes) A laminated tape cassette contains both a transparent laminated tape roll and a separate adhesive base tape roll. When a transparent laminated tape and an adhesive base tape pass through the contact point (between the tape feed roller and the tape feed sub roller), they are then bonded together into a single printed tape.
2.1.4 Tape Automatic Full Cutter Mechanism The tape automatic full cutter mechanism consists of the fixed blade and the movable blade, which is driven by the full cutter motor. The full cutter motor (DC motor) rotates counterclockwise responding to the signal sent from the CPU when the tape is fed after printing, which transmits the rotation to the cutter helical gear.
2.1.5 Tape Automatic Half Cutter Mechanism The tape automatic half cutter mechanism consists of the fixed plate and the half cutter holder (the cutter blade is attached) driven by the half cutter motor. This mechanism is applied only to the laminated tape. After tape printing and feeding, the CPU directs to rotate the half cutter motor (DC motor) counterclockwise, and the drive power is transmitted to the half rock gear via the clutch gear and three idle gears.
2.1.6 Forcible Tape Ejection Mechanism The forcible tape ejection mechanism consists of the eject rubber roller unit and the eject roller unit driven under synchronizing with the cutter mechanism. After tape printing and feeding, the cutter helical gear rotates counterclockwise when the cutter mechanism starts to work (as described in Subsection 2.1.4) and the boss “A”...
2.1.7 Cover Open Button (Cover Lock Button) Pressing the cover open button (cover lock button), the cover button actuator is slid to the left direction and it pushes the cover lock actuator. The cover lock is released and the cassette cover is opened.
2.1.9 AV Label Print Start Position Detector Mechanism (for U.S.A. only) This mechanism makes it possible to print at the proper position on Avery (AV) labels half-cut in a 24-mm-width AV labels tape. As shown below, it uses a reflection photosensor named AV print position sensor (AV sensor PCB ASSY).
OUTLINE OF CONTROL ELECTRONICS Fig. 2.2-1 shows the block diagram of the control electronics. The control electronics consist of the following components. Fig. 2.2-1 Block Diagram of the Control Electronics 2.2.1 Main PCB This manages all the components. This PCB consists of CPU, ROM, RAM, EEPROM, serial IF driver, USB chip and motor drivers etc.
2.2.4 Switch, LED PCB (Sub PCB) The PCB includes ON/OFF switch, FEED/CUT switch and LEDs (Red/Green). 2.2.5 Full Cutter Sensor The full cutter sensor detects the position of full cutter (mechanical SW). 2.2.6 Half Cutter Sensor The half cutter sensor detects the position of half cutter (mechanical SW). 2.2.7 Roller Holder Sensor The roller holder sensor detects the position of roller holder (mechanical SW).
MAIN PCB Fig. 2.3-1 shows the block diagram of the main PCB. The main PCB consists of the following components. (1) CPU (Including ROM and RAM) (2) SRAM (128Kbyte x 2) (3) EEPROM (4Kbit x 2) (4) Power supply ON/OFF circuit, Head power supply ON/OFF circuit, FEED/CUT key ON/OFF circuit, LED ON/OFF circuit, ID switch circuit (5) Full cutter motor drive circuit, Half cutter motor drive circuit, Tape feed motor drive circuit, Release motor drive circuit, Eject motor drive circuit...
Use the provided dedicated software to store the data connecting the PC to PT-9500PC with the serial IF cable as shown in Fig. 2.3-2. For more information, refer to “Appendix 1. Test Software Operation”.
2.3.2 Solder Points Fig. 2.3-3 shows the solder point circuit. One of solder points from L to S is soldered according to the resistance level of the thermal head. When the solder point is changed, verify with a multi meter whether solder on the unsolder point is removed properly.
2.3.4 Cover Open Sensor Circuit Fig. 2.3-5 shows the cover open sensor circuit. This circuit detects the open/close status of the cassette cover, where “Low” indicates close status and “High” indicates the open status. If the status is cover open, no drive device works. Fig.
CHAPTER III DISASSEMBLY AND REASSEMBLY SAFETY PRECAUTIONS The disassembly or reassembly work should be carried on a grounded antistatic sheet. Otherwise, the LSIs and electronic parts may be damaged due to the electricity charged in your body. When transporting PCBs, be sure to wrap them in conductive sheets such as aluminum foil. When using soldering irons and other heat-generating tools, take care not to damage the resin parts such as wires, PCBs, and covers.
