The entire type wheel device is on the frame scale of the scale and on the type wheels or Menplatte 10 by means of bearings 72, 73 attached. In the pressure roller corresponds to 4 g. The device Bearing 72 runs a shaft 74 which is in the axial direction for calculating the price and for registering is guided by a gear 75 attached to it. connected to an automatic balance of the usual type a type wheel 76 is attached to the shaft 74, and 5 the one in which the pointer of the scale is only in the area at the left end of the shaft a keyway or the like of a small sector is moved, but this is not inappropriate, in which a pin of another type wheel is conditionally required.

When the If a package or the like is placed on the scales Shaft 74 is rotated, therefore only rotate which has been and the pointer no longer oscillates, so Type wheels 76 and 77 with. The registration process can begin in the type wheel 76. Since the washer 4 the numbers of the smaller unit of weight are engraved on the same shaft 1 as the pointer 2 and in the type wheel 77 is the price of corresponding, the size of their movement is the same. If the Weight units is rotated at a certain unit crank 11, the shaft 7 will also rotate price. The type wheel 70, on which the numbers of the largest and the cam disks 13, 12, 14, ßeren weight unit are engraved, 15 15 and also the cam free rotates via the bevel gears 89.90 on the shaft 74 between the bearing 72 and disk 87. The shape of the cam disks and their the type wheel 76, its rotation from the relative position to the zero position is such that it is in Shaft 65 takes place via the gears 66 and 68. in a specific, fixed sequence to take effect The gear 69 rotates coming between a shoulder.

The type wheel 71 is on one of the twenty-four openings 5 corresponding to the type twenty-four wheel 77 mounted sleeve and is in the disc 4, i. H. one pin 22 each for 4 g. if its position to the right by a stop - the pin holder 21 is advanced against the disk 4 ring 71 α of the shaft 74 held. To the left is that pin 22 which corresponds to the weight value which corresponds to the type wheels 77 and 71 on the shaft 74 30, into one of the openings 5.

For a more detailed explanation of the mode of operation of the compression spring 38 (FIG. 3) is pivoted in such a way, The device according to the invention is hereinafter referred to as the pen holder 36 attached to the arm 35 the example of a balance with the capacity with the pins 37 via the articulated member 34 genes of 1 kg. The smallest division on the one arranged against the one on the back of the pane 4

Neten stop members 6 is moved, whereby that of the pins 37, which corresponds to the whole hectogram value of the weight of the package, is stopped by the stop member 6 for the corresponding number of hectograms. The number of these pens is eleven, from "0" to "10" inclusive. In Fig. 3, the pin 37 located furthest to the right has come into contact with its stop member 6, which means that the weight of the package is less than 1 hectogram. Since the angle of rotation of the pointer 2 and the disk 4 is very small for each increase in the load by 1 g, it is very difficult to achieve the adjustment of the stop members 6. If the load z. B. is "197 g", the balance registers "196g", ie the second pin is stopped by its stop member; but if the load is "200 g", the scales register "200 g", which means that the third pen is stopped while pen no. 2 remains completely free. To avoid this difficulty, the pen holder 36 ao - as already explained ^: - can be pivoted about the shaft of the disk 4, so that the pins 37 with their corresponding stop member 6 move before each whole hectogram number for the last smaller values. This is achieved in that the stop 48 of the circular ring 28 comes into contact with the stop 47 on the pivot arm 44 when the angle of rotation is large, ie when one of the pins 22 located furthest to the right enters an opening in the disk 4, whereby the right part 43 of which presses down the pen holder 36 which, since it is mounted on the central seat 30, can be rotated via the arms 35 and 33.

. Instead of pivoting the pen holder 36 downward as in the illustrated embodiment, if the number of small weight units is large, it is also possible to make such an arrangement, that the pen holder is pivoted upwards when there is zero or a small number of small weight units, d. H. that is, in a direction opposite to the direction of movement of the stop members 6.

The movement to feel the whole number of hectograms takes place if, with further turning of the Crank 11 the radius of the cam disk 15 decreases. The tension spring 57, which is on the left part of the Rack 53 engages, seeks to pull rack 53 to the left, but in the zero position the connecting member 62, the lever 63 and the cam disk 15 are held in place by the toggle lever 58, 59 will. When the radius of the cam disk 15 decreases due to the rotation of the shaft, the spring 57 pulls the rack 53 to the left until the movement is stopped by the fact that the at the bottom of the Rack 53 arranged stop 56 comes into contact with the head of that pin 37, which is in the extended position, d. H. that pin which lies opposite a stop member 6. Since the rack 53 meshes with the gear 64 (Fig. 4), the movement becomes simultaneous Transferred via the gears 66 and 67 seated on the shaft 65 to the gears 68 and 69, whereby the type wheel 70 for the weight in hectograms and via the pin 79 the type wheel 71 for the total price corresponding to a certain weight at a certain unit price in the registration position to be brought.

The bevel gears 89, 90 have now turned the cam disk 87 (FIG. 1) into such a position that the roller 83 is immediately in front of the notch of the cam disk, so that with little further Rotation of the stop arm 81 with the stamp pad 82 released and forcefully followed by the spring 86 is pushed up against the type wheels. If a ribbon or a card or the like. Previously between the stamp pad and the type wheels have been brought in, an imprint is created on the card, which shows the weight, the unit price and the total amount, e.g. B. »212 g, 5 crowns, 1.00 crown + 0.06 crowns «.

With further rotation of the shaft 7, all movements are under the control of the respective Cams returned, all springs are also tensioned. The entire registration process takes place with one revolution of the shaft 7; the rotation of the shaft can be done by hand or by means of a Engine.

If the weight and price display is to take place in packages, the food or the like. With others Included in the unit price, the type wheels 71 and 77 must be replaced.

Other embodiments are also possible within the scope of the invention. So z. B. in place of a different sensing device is used for the sensing device shown for the smaller weight units will. Instead of type wheels, type levers can also be used, and the Device instead of being driven by hand electrically, e.g. B. by a motor, magnet or the like.

The feelers for the larger unit and those for the smaller unit do not need to be the same Disc 4 cooperate, they can rather each for themselves with separate links depending work on the measurand, e.g. B. with two discs that sit on the same shaft. In the illustrated Embodiment are the numbers of the smaller units of the measured value on the left side of the numbers of the larger units and the number corresponding to the number of smaller units Price registered on the left of the price corresponding to the number of larger units; it is but also possible the number of larger and smaller units as well as the corresponding Prices z. B. to register on top of each other. It is only important that the weights or the like. And likewise the prices are registered close together so that they can be read together.
