Abstract: The conductor pattern on an ultrasonic motor lead board is prevented from being stripped off an ultrasonic motor lead board main body. An ultrasonic motor support member 124 for an ultrasonic motor 130 is firmly fixed on an ultrasonic motor shaft 132. A piezoelectric element 802 is firmly fixed to an ultrasonic stator main body 122b. The ultrasonic stator 122 is firmly fixed on the ultrasonic motor shaft 132. An ultrasonic motor lead board 136 is firmly fixed onto a backside of the ultrasonic motor support member 124. A conductor pattern 136b at its tip portion 136e and a conductor pattern 136b at its tip portion 136f are respectively welded to electrodes 803a, 803b of the piezoelectric element 802. An ultrasonic rotor 134 is arranged rotatable relative to the ultrasonic motor shaft 132. A pressurizing spring 138 puts the ultrasonic rotor 134 in pressure contact with the ultrasonic stator 122.

Abstract: A printer is disclosed which comprises a type platen and a type head opposite the periphery of said type platen and spaced apart therefrom to form a given gap spacing therewith. The type head is located in a plane extending perpendicular to the axis of the type platen and is movable in a direction parallel to the axis of the platen. The typehead includes a plurality of impacting wires arranged radially about the axis of said type platen, a plurality of operating pins each secured to the rear end of each of the impacting wires, and a plurality of solenoids having corresponding armatures whose free ends are adapted to be engaged with the operating pins when the solenoids are energized in response to given print signals, the front ends of the impacting wires are caused to impact upon the peripheral surface of said type platen to imprint characters corresponding to these signals on a record sheet.
