PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a nail printing apparatus capable of printing even on a plurality of fingers with different lengths, with each nail arranged uniformly, while miniaturization and light weight of the apparatus are materialized.SOLUTION: A grabbing section 20c that can be pinched between a print finger U1 and a non-print finger U2 is composed of a first finger positioning part 201 and a second finger positioning part 202, for the purpose of making printing possible on the nails Ta, Tb for four fingers from the index finger to the little finger on one side and the thumb on the other side respectively in a position with all nails uniformly arranged in the finger inserting direction Y. The first finger positioning part 201 makes the positioning of the four fingers possible from the index finger to the little finger on one side inserted into a print finger insertion part 20a. The second finger positioning part 202 is arranged in a position where an end is shifted from the end of the first finger positioning part 201 to the depth side in the inserting direction of the print finger U1 and where positioning of the thumb is possible on the other side inserted into the print finger insertion part 20a.COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT【課題】装置の小型化、軽量化を実現しつつ、長さの異なる複数の指でも互いに各爪を揃えて印刷を行うことのできるネイルプリント装置を提供する。【解決手段】印刷指U1と非印刷指U2とで挟持可能な掴み部20cは、人差し指から小指までの4つの指と他方の手の親指との各爪Ta,Tbが指挿入方向Yにおいて揃えた位置で印刷可能とするために、印刷指挿入部20aに挿入された人差し指から小指までの4つの指の位置決めが可能な第1の指位置決め部201と、この第1の指位置決め部201の端部よりもその端部が印刷指U1の挿入方向奥側にずれた位置に配置され、印刷指挿入部20aに挿入された他方の手の親指の位置決めが可能な第2の指位置決め部202とを備えている。【選択図】図3
