1. When no current flows through the degaussing coil 13, the magnetic flux of the permanent magnet 9 passes through the support song io, the substrate 11 and the magnetic pole column 12, is guided to the actuating body 4 via the leaf spring 5, and then 9 leaf springs 5 are passed through the yoke plate 6 from the side of the operating body 4. It is fed back to the permanent magnet 9 via the spacer 7 and ring 8. Therefore, the actuating body 4 is attracted downward toward the magnetic pole and column 12 by the magnetic flux of the permanent magnet 9, and the leaf spring 5r/
'i, is in a bent state as it is attracted to the magnetic pole column 12. Next, when a current is applied to the degaussing coil 13, the permanent magnet 9
The magnetic flux is canceled and the attractive force of the actuating body 4 is reduced, so the restoring force of the leaf spring 5 accelerates the actuating body 4 upward. At this time, since the printing needle 1 is also accelerated upward, the bearing 2
It protrudes further and impacts an ink ribbon (not shown) to print dots. Furthermore, when the current in the degaussing coil 13 is stopped, the operating body 4 is attracted again by the magnetic flux of the permanent magnet 9, as described above, so that the printing needle 1 returns to its original position. The above operations constitute one cycle, and dot matrix printing is performed by operating the printing needle 1 at appropriate times while scanning the dot printer print head left and right.

However, in the print head movable body for printers with the above-mentioned conventional configuration, as shown in FIG.
Since the width of the tip of the blade is wider than the width of the actuating body 4, it was difficult to align the center 5 of the actuating body 4 and the plate blade 5.

Furthermore, as shown in FIG. 2C, for example, when the actuating body 4 and the leaf spring 4 are fixed by multiple spot-shaped welds, in order to obtain sufficient bonding strength, the distance between the front and back welding points must be must be longer than a certain length, and the first
As shown in the figure, the welding point must extend toward the outer end of the leaf spring 5 so as not to hit the pole column 12. For this reason, the overall length of the leaf spring 5 is inevitably increased, leading to an increase in the moment of inertia of the movable body, which has the disadvantage of causing a decrease in printing speed.
