Abstract

756,268. Typewriters. INTERNATIONAL BUSINESS MACHINES CORPORATION. June 27, 1954 [July 30, 1953], No. 21886/54. Class 100 (4). Ink-ribbon mechanism.-A ribbon-winding mechanism for power-operated typewriters or the like having a power-roller 6, comprises two ribbon spools 83, driven alternately by pawls 91, by mechanism actuated from a portion 52 of the power-roller 6, and latching means whereby one spool may be continuously driven until winding is complete, whereupon the latching means is released. The spools one only of which is shown, may be fed in letter-space steps during typing by the operation of a power typeaction which rocks a bail causing a pull on a link 54 to pivot a lever 48 which allows a halfrevolution of a cam 41. This oscillates a frame 38 and through a link 78, lever 77, and link 79, pivots a lever 87, and an attached pawl 91 rotates its spool 83. When one spool is full the ribbon 130 is tensioned and a lever 101 associated with the empty spool, pivots counterclockwise, pulls a link 99, and an interposer 98 is rotated so it lies in the path of a lug 107 on the lever 87. Consequently the next oscillation of the lever 87 causes a G-shaped plate 97, carrying the interposer 98, to shift upwardly so the pawl 91 is in effective position, and the pawl 91 associated with the full spool is disengaged. A manual control 112 may be used to determine which spool effects winding. To effect a winding, a continuous actuation of the frame 38 is necessary, and this is effected by depression of a plunger 58 sliding on pins 62, 63 in slots 59, 61. Slot 61 is recessed at 69 to latch the plunger in downward position where its end 71 engages a pin 72 on the lever 48 which pivots both end lugs 49, 56 clear of the pins 51 to permit cam 41 to rotate continuously. When winding is completed the tensioning action on the lever 101 and the lifting of the G-plate 97 causes a pin 113 thereon, to rock a cam lever 123 having a cam stud 125 which acts on a cam surface 127 to unlatch the plunger 58 and restore the lever 48 to original position where it blocks rotation of the cam 41.
