Abstract

965,171. Counters. FERAG, FEHR & REIST A.G. March 16,1962 [March 30, 1961], No. 10114/62. Heading G4D. Articles such as newspapers, which may overlap,pass along a conveyer and are counted by a pulse emitter which floats freely in a vertical plane. The pulse emitter 8 is supported on the conveyer or on the stream of newspapers 2 by a wheel 9 and two rollers 10. A feeler 11 is defected by the edge of each newspaper to break the path of a beam of light passing through a hole 16 to a photoelectric device. Skids may replace the wheel and rollers.
