Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve the productivity of armature holders to obtain low-cost printing heads by a method wherein the armature holder consists of an outer ring member with perforated screw holes for mounting the base parts of plate springs and an inner ring member with grooves radially formed correspondingly to the screw holes to be opened at the both sides in the axial direction, and polygonal step parts serving as a fulcrum of the plate spring are formed on the outer ring member. CONSTITUTION:An armature holder is composed of two members, i.e., an outer ring member A and an inner ring member B. Previously, these members are separately manufactured as subassemblies by press molding. The outer ring member is machined so that screw holes 10 and polygonal step parts 13, 14 are formed and a surface for mounting plate springs 4 is ground. The inner ring member is machined so that side magnetic path parts 18 between grooves 11 opened at the both sides in the axial direction are extended by press molding. By concentrically fitting and securing the outer and inner ring members completed in this manner with each other, an armature holder 3' is produced.
