ABSTRACT:
A character belt for use in a high speed impact printer comprises an endless band having an outer surface on which equally spaced cylindrical sleeves are formed so as to surround central portions of cylindrical slugs extending across the width of the band. Each slug has a raised type character on at least one end face thereof. The band and sleeves are integrally formed in a molding operation which yields a band which is relatively flexible about an axis extending parallel to the band's axial direction and relatively rigid about a line coincident with the circumference of the band. The plastic material selected to form the belt preferably exhibits good elastic damping characteristics and high abrasion resistance along the band inner surface. A high tensile strength core material is embedded in the band for dimensional stability.
