TM-T88 Series Technical Manual
A separate type gear train is used for this mechanism. When the motor rotates in reverse, the
pressure angle relationship causes power to work in the direction that the gear train is
separated, so reverse motor operation is impossible.
Head holding mechanism
Spring pins, which act as bearings, are press fit onto either side of the thermal head. The thermal
head bearings are inserted into slots equipped in the main frame. The head holding plate affixed
to the main frame has two head holding springs that apply pressure to the back of the thermal
head. While the frame cover is open, the thermal head is in contact with the stopper equipped on
the main frame.
