果がなかった。In the conventional example shown in FIG. 3, the back stopper 36 is vibrated by the impact of the actuator 31 after the printing operation is completed.
Had a large surface area and a large amount of noise radiant energy.
For this reason, there is an example in which a soundproof material 37 etc. is added to the back stopper 36, but the back stopper 36 must be mechanically high in rigidity, and since the relative displacement with the soundproof material 37 is small, the soundproof material is
Even if 37 was added, the soundproof material 37 had only the effect of dispersing the direction of the sound wave generated by the vibration of the back stopper 36, and had no great effect in reducing the acoustic energy itself of noise.

FIG. 1 is a view showing an embodiment of the present invention, in which an actuator 1 having a print wire 2 is rotatable by pressing a rotation fulcrum portion 1a with a fulcrum spring 10. Coil 3 wound around core 4
The magnetic flux generated in 1 passes through the magnetic circuit composed of the core 4 and the actuator 1. The actuator 1 having the print wire 2 is held by the return spring 9 against the back stopper 6 to which the stopper rubber 5 is attached and held at the standby position. The sound absorbing material 7, on the surface 6a of the back stopper 6,
For example, a felt is provided, and the sound absorbing material 7 is provided with a sound insulating material 8, for example, a metal having high rigidity. Ink ribbon 11, paper 12 between platen 13 and print wire 2

遮音される。The operation of the above configuration will be described. When the coil 3 is energized by the print command signal, a magnetic flux passing through the core 4 and the actuator 1 is generated, an attractive force is generated between the actuator 1 and the core 4, and the actuator 1 having the print wire 2 is pressed by the fulcrum spring 10. With fulcrum 1a
Rotate clockwise. The printing wire 2 moves to the right by the rotational movement of the actuator 1 and collides with the platen 13 via the ink ribbon 11 and the paper 12 to form dots on the paper 12 for printing. After the printing is completed, the actuator having the printing wire 2 returns to the left by the repulsive force from the platen 13 and the spring force of the return spring 9, and collides with the back stopper 6 to which the stopper rubber 5 as the damper member is attached, thereby causing the back stopper. Excitate 6. Since the sound absorbing material 7 and the sound insulating material 8 according to the present invention are provided on the surface 6a of the back stopper 6 in this order, the sound wave generated by the vibration of the back stopper 6 first has acoustic energy when passing through the sound absorbing material 7. The noise is reduced, and the sound insulation material 8 further shields the sound.

生する騒音の低減が図れる。Further, since the sound absorbing material 7 is between the back stopper 6 and the sound insulating material 8, the vibration of the sound insulating material 8 is excited by the vibration of the back stopper 6 to cause a phase difference in the vibration displacement of both, and the sound absorbing material 7 serves as a damping material. This also acts to quickly damp the vibration of the back stopper 6 and effectively reduce the noise generated from the back stopper 6.

されるために騒音の低減が図られる。Another embodiment is shown in FIG. In this embodiment, the plunger 14 is fixed to the actuator 21, and the print wire 22 is engaged with one end of the actuator 21.
The magnetic flux generated in the coil 23 passes through the magnetic circuit composed of the core 24, the side yoke 15, and the plunger 14. The surface 26a of the back stopper 26 on which the stopper rubber 25 is mounted is provided with a sound absorbing material 27, for example, foamable silicone rubber that is easily elastically deformed, and the sound absorbing material 27 has a sound insulating material 28, for example, lead with high specific gravity. A plate is provided. When the coil 23 is energized by the print command signal, a magnetic flux is generated by the coil 23 and a suction force is generated between the plunger 14 and the core 24, and the actuator 21 to which the plunger 14 is fixed urges the print wire 22. To print. After the printing is completed, the actuator 21 and the printing wire 22 return by the repulsive force from the platen 13 and the spring force of the return spring 9, collide with the back stopper 26 having the stopper rubber 25 attached thereto, and vibrate the back stopper 26. Since the surface 26a of the back stopper 26 is provided with the sound absorbing material 27 and the sound insulating material 28 according to the present invention in this order, the sound is quickly attenuated and the sound is insulated, so that the noise can be reduced.
