Abstract: An insert section (34) of an insert member (28) is
inserted into a tube member (26) in a state in which the
insert member (28) is detached from a recess (29) to form a
diametrally expanded section (39) on the tube member (26).
Subsequently, the insert member (28) is fitted to the recess
(29) to install the tube member (26) to the recess (29). At
this stage, an outer circumferential surface (40) of an
expanded section (36) of the insert member (28) tightly
contacts with an inner circumferential surface (42) of the
recess (29) to effect the sealing function. Subsequently, a
tapered section (56) and an outer circumferential surface of
the tube member (26) are resin-welded by using a welding
material (58). Thus, the tube member (26) is prevented from
disengagement from a body (18).

an embodiment of the invention, a printer (10) comprises a plurality of elongate
print heads (40a/b/c/d) arranged orthogonally with respect to each other about a
center axis (45) defined between the print heads. The print heads are capable of

may be a recordable compact disk or a read-only memory compact disk, if desired.
The print heads may be coupled to a rotatable hub (60) centered at the center axis,
such that the print heads extend radially outwardly from the hub. A motor (120) is
coupled to the hub for rotating the hub, so that the print heads rotate in unison
about the center axis as the hub rotates. A controller coupled (130) to the motor
and print heads synchronously control operation of the motor and print heads. In
this configuration of the invention, the print heads rotate while the disk is
stationary.
