Thermal printing device with dual thermal printing heads

Abstract

The invention provides a thermal printing device with dual thermal printing heads. The device comprises thermal printing heads and a printer body which is matched with the thermal printing heads. The thermal printing heads are two opposite end face thermal printing heads whose heating resistors are opposite. The paper feed sides and the paper out sides of the thermal printing heads are provided with driven paper feed roller mechanisms and driving paper feed roller mechanisms. The end face thermal printing heads, the driven paper feed roller mechanisms and the driving paper feed roller mechanisms are arranged in the shell of the printer body. According to the thermal printing device, the two end face thermal printing heads are used to print multiple layers of thermal mediums, the energy load of the thermal printing heads can be reduced, the purpose of protecting the thermal printing heads is achieved, the service life of the thermal printing heads are prolonged, the colors of the multiple layers of thermal mediums are more uniform, and the thermal printing device has the advantages of high printing speed and low noise compared with a needle printer.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of thermal printing, in particular to a thermal printing device with dual thermal printing heads. Background technique [0002] As we all know, the principle of a thermal printer is to cover a base material (usually paper) with a thermal layer, and then heat the thermal layer for a period of time to change color due to chemical reactions to obtain an image. This chemical reaction is carried out at a certain temperature, and high temperature will accelerate this chemical reaction. When the temperature is lower than 60°C, the film takes a long time, even decades, to change color; when the temperature is 200°C, the reaction will be completed in tens of microseconds. The thermal printer selectively heats the thermal medium at a certain position, thereby producing corresponding graphics. The heating is provided by a small electronic heating resistor on the print head that is in contact with the thermal material. The heating r...
