More Information
Summary:An example apparatus includes a gear comprising a gear hub; a swing-arm rotationally engaged with the gear hub; and a spring circumferentially engaged with the gear hub and the swing-arm to apply a radial clamping force between the swing-arm and the gear hub. Torque is frictionally coupled from the gear hub to the swing-arm to lock a capped print head assembly (PHA) in a non-printing location. Un appareil donné à titre d'exemple comprend un engrenage doté d'un moyeu d'engrenage ; un bras oscillant en prise rotative avec le moyeu d'engrenage ; et un ressort en prise de manière circonférentielle avec le moyeu d'engrenage et le bras oscillant de façon à appliquer une force de serrage radiale entre le bras oscillant et le moyeu d'engrenage. Le couple est accouplé par friction du moyeu d'engrenage au bras oscillant afin de verrouiller un ensemble de tête d'impression (PHA) encapuchonné dans un emplacement de non-impression.
