Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable to enhance electric power efficiency, by a method wherein the residual magnetic energy remaining in each coil without being converted into kinetic energy of a magnetic head is recovered by converting it into electrical energy through a transformer, in an impact dot printer. CONSTITUTION:When a transistor 10-1 is turned ON, an exciting current is passed through a head coil 9-2 to produce a dot, at which time, all of diodes 19-1-19-n are reversely biased, so that no electric current flows in the transformer 11. When the transistor 10-1 is turned OFF, a counter electromotive force V is generated in the head coil 9-1 due to the inductance thereof, the second diode 19-1 is forwardly biased, so that a voltage V approximately equal to the counter electromotive force V is generated in a secondary winding 16 of the transformer 11, and the same voltage is generated also in a primary winding 12. When this voltage is higher than a power source voltage 5, the first diode 14 is forwardly biased, and surplus magnetic energy is converted into electrical energy and is returned to the power source. Accordingly, electric power efficiency can be enhanced, and the service life of the head can be prolonged through the reduction in the quantity of heat generated at the head coil.
