Two wire spring-arms 47 aresecured to the do 'rocker by 'ascrew 48 hich is received 1n the loop of the double spring, and each arm of the spring is connected with one of the slides 41, 42 and exerts a pressure thereon to move the slide to'the right, as the parts areindicated in Fig. 2. The

At the same time the other or advanced dog is moved into thepath of. the next oncoming tooth of the escapementwheel, which under thepower of the spring gaged and released at successive movements of the dog rocker in opposite directions and the dogs are alternately moved to the ad-' vanced positions by their springs 47 and are l alternately moved, by the escapement wheel coacting therewith, to the retracted positions. This construction, whereby the loose dogs are alternately advanced and retracted relatively to each other, enables the dogs to clear the teeth of the escapement wheel and to avoid liability of contact between the do sand the teeth of the wheel in the back and forth movements of the dog rocker. It will also be observed that each back or forth movement of the dog rocker affords a full far as. the cotiperationbetw'een the feed dogs v 45and46'and the escapement'wheel 30 is a laterally projecting'engaging device, pin, or stud 50 at the lower end portion thereof.v This stud 50 is preferably substantially tri angular in cross section, and is arrangedvfor coiiperationwith twoactuating devices or pawls 51" and 52Iarranged aboveand below the same. Each pawlispivoted at, 53 to an oscillatory device 54, which is in the 113,".
ture of a lever of the first order fulcrumed intermediate its ends on a shouldered pivot screw 55. This screw is received at its threaded end in a projection 56 and the latter extends from the bracket 57 secured, screws 58, to the base of the frame. light contractile spring 59 is connected at one end to a pin 60 which projects laterally ;f,rom the pawL 52, and1is connected at its .opposite end to a .pin 61 which projects laterally from the pawl 51. The power of this spring is exerted to draw the pawls 51 and 52 toward each other and into cotip-' eration with-the 'engagingdevice or stud 50. A turnihgmovement of the lever 54 in either direction is efl'ective to move the pawls 51 and 52 in .opposite directions, as indicated by the arrows in Figs- 3, 4 and 5. Each of the pawls 51 and 52 is provided with oppositely disposed hook-like engaging' ends, so that. each of the 'pawls is co- ,operative with the engaging pin 50 during ,the movement of each pawl in but one direotion, each pawl being adapted to move independently of the engaging pin, during the mo vement of the pawl in the opposite direction. Thus the pawl 51 is provided with a recess 62 shaped to "conform substantially to two sides ofthe'pin'50, whereas the pawl 52 is provided with a recess 63 in which the pin is adapted to be seated.
The pawl 51 likewise has a contact face 64' which is cooperative with contact faces 65' and 66 on. the pawl 52, as will hereinafter more clearly appear. An upwardly extend-,
at its upper-end to the arm 71, and thelower end of said ,linkis bifurcated to receive the rear end of a crank arm 74 betion. A pin 75 extends between the two arms formed by. the bifurcated end of the link 73', and is received in an upright slot 76 in the crankarm 74, so thata lost motion connection is formed between the crank arm 74 and the link 73. This affords a downward movement of the crank arm independently of the link until the bottom wall of the slot 76 engages the pin.75. The" I120 tween the side arms formed by the bifurcascribed will bemore readily comprehended when it is understood at the outset that in the f reverse feed of the parts, which will first be set forth, the auxiliary dog 88' (to be hereinafter described) does not cooperate with the escapenient wheel, said auxiliary dog being rendered inoperative by adjusting the slide 92 to the dotted line position shown in Fig. 5. For the present there fore the auxiliary feed dog may beentirely disregarded.
The operation of the parts for reverse feed is as follows:-Assu ming that the parts are normally in the positions shown in Fig. 1, it- \villbe understood that a depression of a finger or printing key 6 is effective to depress the universal bar, thereby rocking the shaft 67 and moving the crank arm 74 downwardly. This movement is transmitted, through the link 73, to the lever 54 to turn it from F16 position shown in l ig. 1 to that indica ed in'I ig. 3. This 'HIOVG- ment of the lever 54' against the pressure of the spring (39 isettective to'move the pawls 51 and 52 in the directions of the arrows in' Fig. 3. At the first part of the moven'ient the hook-like end of the pawl .31 will be brought intorengagement with the stud on the depending arm 49 of the dog rocker, and the bill of thehook-like portion of the pawl engaging beneath the stud 5t) will prevent the pawl from being lit'tcd. This ini-.
tial movement of the pawl 51 is adapted to bring the contact face .(34 thereon to a position whcreit will oo-act with the contact faces (l5 and (36 on the pawl as the latter moves in the direction of the arrow in Fig.

3, thus preventing airengi igcmcnt of the I igZu-B represents the positions of the parts'at the end of the first down stroke or deprcssit'in of a key. It.
will be seen that this movement: has been effective to turn the dog rocker onits pivot from the position shown in Fig; l to that indicated. in Fig. 3 and that this movement carries the loose dog 45 out of engagement with the escapement wheel and interposes the dog 46 in theupath of the oiicon'iing tooth ot' the cscapcinent .whccl. thus ati'ording a full letter space movement of the carments of the parts to effect a movement of the dog rocker, so that the dog rocker remains in the positionvto which it was moved on the first down stroke of the key. The nekt depression of a tingcr key is ctl'ective to more the parts from the positions represented in Fig. 5 to those indicated iirl ig. 4."--At this timethe pawls 5L and 5'') move in opposite directions,- as indicated by the arrows in Fig. 5, and the first pal-tot the movement is eti'ective to seat the engaging pin 50 in the recess 63 of the pawl This same movement of the pawl 52 into engagement with the pin 50 is etl'ective to bring the contact faces (35 and (it; to a position where the contact face (it on the pawl 51 will cooperate therewith, so that the movement of the pawl 51 in the direction indicated by the arrow in Fig. 5, may take place without the pawl 51 engaging the projection 50; the pawl 51 at this time passing freely over the pin. The movements justdescribed, at the second depression of a finger key, is effective to move the dog rocker t'rointhe position shown in Fig. 5 to that indicated in Fig. This movement carries the feed dog 46 out of engagement with the escapement wheel and intcrposes the dog 45 in the path of the oncoming tooth of the wheel, thus affording a full let ter space movement of the carriage at the second downstroke or depression of a key. At the third stroke of a key the operation of the parts described at the first key depression will be repeated. So on successive key depressions are operative to positively move the dog rocker alternately firstin one direction and then in theopposite direction, and a full letter space movement ofthe ca'rrnige is efi'ected at each back or forth movement of the dog rocker and in 4t 77 W this manner a reverse feed is aflordcd.
The back and forthmovements of the dog rocker are limited by two screw stops 81. -and 82 which extend at right angles to each other and both of which cooperate with a projection 83 which projectsforwardly from the bracket plate 40. The screwstop S2 is received in a tapped opening in an arm 85 which projects forwardly froint'he dog rocker The screw stop 82 is adapted to-contact with the bottom of the pro ect1ng abutn'icnt 83 to liiiiit-the rearward move ment of the'teed dogs, whereas the stop Sl is received in a threaded opening in'the'i pllt per dog carrying arm of the dogro'ckei ainl co-acts with the rear end of the abutment dogs. M r I As has been herembefore intimated, l'have provided, in accordance with my present invention, means which may be regulated at will to e'tl'cct either ordinary or reverse feed as may be desired. In order to etioct this result lprovide a carrier 86 which is in the '83 to .limit the fdi'fward movement of the nature of a lever of the first, order ful crumed on a shouldered pivot screw 87 to a projection 83 on the bracket plate 40. It
' will thus "be seen that this lever or carrier 86 is'mounted independently ofthe .dog rocker. The upper end ofthls lever'is provided with a holding dog 88 which is preferably provided with an inclined or box elcd 91' in an adjustable device 92,- which carries a laterally projecting pin 98. The heads of the screws 90'are-adaptedto bear against the face of the slide or adjustable device 92 g to hold it in the 4 above the pivot of the latter.
' position to which it may be adjusted longitudinally of the lever 86, whereas the stems of thescrews 9O guide the slide in its adjustment longitudinally of the lever. When the slide 92 is adjusted to the lowermost position, shown in Figs. 3, t. and 5, the pin'93 extends into wardly extending pin 94 on the pawl or actuating device 51. A contractile spring 95 is connected at'one end to the bracket plate .40 and at its opposite end to the carrier 86 I The power of this spring is exerted to withdraw the holding dog from the' path of the teeth of the escapement wheel as shown in Fig. 5, wherea movement of the pawl 51 in the direcat each complete 'tion of the arrow fective to move the carrier 86 against the pressure of the spring 95 and to move the holding dog into the path of the teeth on the escapement wheel, as shown in Fig. I.
preferably provide a stop pin 96 on the abut:
ment 83' in order to limit the moi-"enumt of the carrier 86 in one direction, and in that direction in which it is moved by the spring 95 to carry the holding It will be understood that although the dog rocker is only moved in one direction at each complete operation of a key, thev lever 54: is, nevertheless, moved or turned first in one direction and then in the opposite dircc tion at each complete operation of a key.- The pawl 51 is direction and then in the opposite direction operation of a key. It follows thereforethat the carrier 86. for the holding dog, is turned first in one direction and then in the-opposite direction by each complete key operation. \V hen the holding dog 88 is to be employed in order-to effect an "ordinary instead of a reverse depression of a finger key, when the parts are in the position shown in Fig. 1. is effective to move them to theposition shown in F ig.' 3 which represents the parts as they are disposed at the end of. the first key dc pression.
into, the path of a tooth fore that a let-off the path of an upthereon in Fig. 3, is of dog out of the path I of the teeth of the escapement wheel likewise moved first in one feed, a
--ner previously described and It will be seen that this move-i ment is effective to'carry the holding dog of the escapement wheel so that the letofi' of the wheel, af-
forded by the movement of the dog rocker, 1
1s inefiectiveto produce a letter space movement of the carriage since at this time the holding dog locks the wheel against rotation. The movement of the holding do into operative position is eflected by the movement of the pawl 51 in the direction of the arrow thereon; this movement being transmitted through the pins 94 and 93 to the carrier 86 of the holding dog. ,VVhen' pressure on the finger key 'is released the springs 69 and 95 restore mal position, Withdrawing the holding dog from the engaged tooth of'the escapement wheel and allowing it a full. letter space" movement of the wheel. The wheel is finally arrested by the dog 46 which has been interposed in the 'patlithereof at'thedepres the parts to nori sion of a key. It will be understood therewheel is effected at the instead of at the down stroke thereof, so as to afford an ordinary instead of a reverse feed of the escapement mechanism. As the holding dog 88 is withdrawn from enga'gement with the escapement wheel the beveled working'face of the holding dog at fords a forward movement of-the escapeof. the escapement up stroke of the key ment wheel to enhance the rapidity of the feed movement of the carriage and to atford an advance of the carriage while the holding dog is being disengaged. The pressure of a tooth of the escapement wheel against the beveled working face 89 of the'holdin'g dog also tends to force the holding dog out of ,;t l e path of the escapement wheel when pres;
sure Tot thelinger 18 released on the depressed finger key.' In some instances it may be that this pressure of the escapement wheel will be found suflicien t. without using the light spring 95 to move the holding dog out of cooperation with the escapement wheel. I prefer as a matter of precaution, however, to employ the spring 95 to assure actuation of the parts. When the finger key a proper has been released after its first depression the parts will be in the'positions shownin Fig-5. The next depression of a key will operate the dog rocker in the manner hereinbefore described, and zit-the same time willmove the holding dog a tooth of the escapement wheel to lockitagainst IHOVOH'ltlIl until the depressed key has been released; Fig. tions of the parts as they ond depression otfla key. seiion'd depressed key has been released, the holding dog will be withdrawn in/ themati- I a letter space movement of the carriage will be etfected.
' It will be'unde'rstood that an upward adjustment of the slide 92 is effective to carry the pin 93 out of the path of appealat the see- "As' soon as the the pip 94' into the path of that the holding dog and its carrierwill-bef rendered inoperative by such adjustment and at such time a reverse feed of the escapementwill then be effected at each depression of a key. W'hen the slide is moved or adjusted downwardly to bring the pins 93' and 94- inlo cooperation, the holdin dog is rendered effective or operative and t e parts are then regulated for F ordinary instead of reverse fee'd.
' If it should be found that insufficient-hie tion is produced at the bearings of the dog rocker to maintain-it against accidental dis placement in either the forward or back osition to which it may be shifted, suita le means may be employed to cooperate with the dog rocker to hold it against accidental displacement. In the present instance I have shown a rearwardly extendin bracket arm 97 provided with a bearing ro ler 98, mounted on. a vertical pivot 99, and adapted to bear at its periphery againstla flat; side of the depending arm 49 of the dog rocker. This pressure of the bearing roller on the depending arm 19 of the dog rocker is effective to maintain itagainst accidental displacement 'in'eitlrer of the positions to which the do rocker may be moved. The bearing whee 98 is insufficient, however, to afford any material resistance to the operation of the dog rocker under control of its actuatingdevices. It will be observed that the pawls 51 and 52 move in opposite directions at each up stroke and alsoat each down stroke of a key; that the pawls are each operative to move the dog rocker in but one direction; that the parts may be regulated so as to feed either the down stroke or the up stroke of a key to afford either ordinary or reverse feed as may be desired; that this depends, in the present instance, on the adjustment of the device 92 and Whether or not the holding dog 88 is operative; that in either reverse or ordinary feed the dog rocker and feed dogs receive a movement under control. of the keys in but one direction at each complete operation of a finger key; that the dog rocker is free to remain in ei her of the back and forth positions to which it may be moved and has no returning spring, the power of which must be overcome by the pressure exerted upon the keys; that the transyerse movement of the feed dogs and rocker in but one direction at each com plete operation of the key reduces the wear on the escapement devices by one-half over the ordinary construction in which it is necessary to move the dog rocker and feed dogs back and forth at each complete operation of key; that the construction is such as to require but little power to actuate the parts, thereby providing a light touch on the finger keys; that the entire train of mechanism from the finger key to the feed dogsis actuated by a positive pressureapplied to the finger key but that the actuating "deviceson the dog rocker are inoperative to move it during the up stroke of the key so that any trembling of the key at the last -01 the carriage skipping under the control of the escapement as is often the case in reverse feed constructions ordinarily en} ployed; that the escapement is therefore effective and reliable irrespective of'the character. of the operators touch-L Various changes may be made without departing from the spirit and scope'of my invention.
