Summary:Magnetically energized needle for printing. A magnetically energized needle or stylus is provided for effecting mosaic printing and utilizes various ways of connection of a needle into the armature of an electromagnet. In one form the needle is made from wire having a thickened portion at one end thereof which makes possible the use of an opening in the armature large enough to be conveniently made. Same is inserted in said opening and fastened therein in any convenient manner such as by peening, the end of the armature over a tapered portion of the needle. In a modification the fastening end of the needle is flattened, a hole provided therethrough and same is then pivoted to a pivoted or hinged type of driving armature. Either of these methods of fastening provides a wire of desirably small diameter at the operating end thereof but large enough at the fastening end to be capable of fastening in a simple, economic and effective manner.
