ーマルヘツドの電極と接続装置との接続構造の改
善に関する。DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a thermal head device, and more particularly to an improvement in the connection structure between the electrodes of a thermal head and a connection device.
従来のサーマルヘツドは第１図に示す様であ

抵抗体１０を発熱させるための電力を選択的に供
給する電極は、この抵抗体の両側に所定個数毎に
電極群１１，１２として交互に取出してある。こ
の電極群１１，１２の各電極１〜ｎの伸長方向は
抵抗体１０の伸長方向に略直角である。 A conventional thermal head, as shown in FIG. 1, forms an image by discontinuously generating heat from resistors 10 arranged in a strip on a base (not shown). A predetermined number of electrodes for selectively supplying power to generate heat in the resistor 10 are alternately taken out on both sides of the resistor as electrode groups 11 and 12. The direction in which each of the electrodes 1 to n of the electrode groups 11 and 12 extends is substantially perpendicular to the direction in which the resistor 10 extends.

１５の端子１〜ｎによつて決定される。 Drive signals are supplied to each of the electrode groups 11 and 12 through tape carriers 13 and 14. In this case, each electrode 1 to n of the first electrode group 11
are set as shown in the figure, and the corresponding electrodes of the connection end 13a of the tape carrier 13 are similarly set as 1 to n.
shall be. The order of the electrodes 1 to n of the connection end 13a is determined, for example, by the terminals 1 to n of the integrated circuit 15 mounted on the tape carrier 13.
この場合、第２の電極群１２の各電極１〜ｎも

部１４ａの電極１〜ｎの順序と電極群１２の電極
１〜ｎの順序が全く逆となつてしまう。 In this case, it is operationally desirable that each of the electrodes 1 to n of the second electrode group 12 be arranged in the same order as the first electrode group 11. When attempting to connect a tape carrier 14 having an integrated circuit 16 protruding thereon in the same way as the tape carrier 13 described above to such an electrode group 11, the order of electrodes 1 to n on the connection end 14a of this tape carrier 14 and The order of electrodes 1 to n of the electrode group 12 is completely reversed.

しくない。 In order to solve this problem, the first electrode group 11
It is also conceivable to connect the tape carrier to each electrode of the second electrode group 12 from the same direction. However, in this case, the tape carrier on the electrode group 12 side needs to be long in order to align the connection ends 13b and 14b (not shown) with the external wiring path (not shown). It is necessary to prepare two types of tape carriers, which is disadvantageous in production. Furthermore, since one tape carrier crosses the resistor, it is necessary to take measures against heat, which is undesirable.
また、一方のテープキヤリアの集積回路を裏返
しに搭載することも考えられるが、テープキヤリ
アの装備が不完全なり望ましくない。 It is also conceivable to mount the integrated circuit of one tape carrier upside down, but this is not desirable as the tape carrier would be incompletely equipped.
