ABSTRACT:
There is disclosed a hammer assembly for a high speed impact printer of the type comprising a solenoid including a coil and an axially-apertured pole piece, the pole piece having a conically-shaped recessed surface, an axially movable armature within the solenoid, the armature having a tapered conical leading surface facing and substantially parallel to the recessed surface of the pole piece, and a hammer, one end of the hammer being rigidly connected to the armature to form a unitized armature/hammer element for striking a print element in the printer, the hammer extending through the aperture in the pole piece. The present hammer assembly achieves, when compared to previous designs, a longer stroke, an increase in impact energy, a reduction of rebound and settling time, an increase in hammer life expectancy, a decrease in cost, improved reliability and a reduction in weight.
