Estimating the term…
A fixing structure for print head carriage rod is disclosed. The fixing structure is simplified and is able to minimize the flexure of the carriage rod, whereby a print head carriage can smoothly travel along the carriage rod. The fixing structure includes a frame body disposed in a printing machine, and a carriage rod mounted on the frame body for the print head carriage to reciprocally travel on the carriage rod for printing operation. The frame body has sidewalls and support sections for supporting the carriage rod in a predetermined position. The fixing structure further includes retainers, which are passed through the sidewalls of the frame body and inserted into fixed ends of the carriage rod in an axial direction thereof so as to secure the carriage rod to the frame body. The retainers and the support sections of the frame body together prevent the carriage rod from being flexed.
A fixing structure for print head carriage rod, comprising a frame body and a carriage rod assembled therewith, the frame body being disposed in a printing machine having a printing section, the frame body having at least one sidewall, the carriage rod having an axis and two fixed ends, each of the fixed ends having a plane face formed on the fixed end, the fixing structure further comprising a retainer disposed at each of the fixed ends of the carriage rod in a direction of the axis of the carriage rod for securing the fixed end to the sidewall of the frame body.
