To all whom it may concern .1 Q
Be it known that I, WARREN BL WnrrERs,
acitizen of the United States, residing at- Stephenville, in the county of Erath and State of Texas, have invented certain new.
and useful Improvements in Meters for Type- Writers; and I do hereby declare the followskilled inthe art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanyin drawings, and to the .on, which form a part of this specification. This invention relates to new and useful improvements in word meters for type- The object in view is to produce a simple and efiicient deviceof this nature'having vaa Fi re 1 1s a slde elevation showing the appl cation of. the invention to the frame of a typewriter. Fi 2 is a similar view showing the parts whlch have been actuated by the depression of a keylever, and Fig. 3 is parts being'shown in y a transverse section top plan view. I
Reference now being. bad to the details of the drawings. by letter, A designates the frame of'a typewriter having key levers ,B
and spacing lever C, only-one of whichkey' leversbeing illustrated in the drawin s assuflicient to illustrate the operation 0 theinvention; A shaft D is mounted in apertures in the opposite sides of the frame of the ty ewriter and has fixed to theends thereo the two bars designated respectivelyby letters E andE. A second shaftdesignated by Fis connected to the bars E andE and has a slight vertical play in the slots H formed in the :opposite sides of the frame;
Arod designated by K is fastened at its lower end to -the bar E and its fippfer end is o a wor' extending portion E near its free end which terminates in a hook 0 having an inclined face 0' and a flat to l, and rm J fastened at one end to t e barat its-ct er end to the frame and tends to normally hold the bar E at its highest limit or .in the posltion .ings a projecting end shownin 1 o f' the drawings.v A book designated by R is pivotally mounted upon I I a pin R and is adapted to enga e over the iiat top Pnpon the ar E'to hold the latter n the FOSICIOD' shown in Fig. 2 of the draw-,
ter the key lever has been de ressed A coiled sprin designated by I is aste'ned' vat one end to t e hook R, at its other. end to the frame of the typewriter, and the urpose of. said spring I is to normally hold th R in the position shown in Fig. 2 of the draw ngs after the bar E has been depressed and in which position the upper laterallyl S of the hook it will. en 'ge' etween the teeth of thestar wheel Tjw ich is fixed to the shaft T and journaled in the,
frame of the typewriter. Said hook R has' an angledend Q, shown clearly in Fig. 3 of the drawings and'which extends underneath. the spacing bar and in the path oi the same. Said shaft T has fixed thereto a pinion wheel T which is in mesh with the gear wheel T journaled upon the stub shaft on the frame of the typewriten. The operation of my invention] will be readily understood and is as follows:.; When the key lever B is depressed the shaft F will be moved downward and with it the drawing down upon the rod K, which in r puttingt e spring J under tension "and turn will pull down the arm N of the meter. As the inclined edge'O' of the bar E comes in contact with the inclined edge ofthe hook, the latter will be swung upon its ivot, throwing itself over the angled end the fiat top P bf the bar E passes below the hook the coiled spring I will cause said hook Rto be moved from the position shown in Fig; 1 to the position shown in Fig. 2, in
which latter position the book will. engage over the fiat top P-and hold the bar E depressed. The lateral projection S upon the hook R will be thrown between the fingers of the star wh el and hold the same from rotation until a er the letter has been registered. The depression of the spacing bar, as it comes in contact with the angled end Q of thehook R will cause the'latterto tilt under tension of the spring I and disengage the hook from the flattened end of the bar- E, thus allowing the coiled spring J to re turn thebar E to its norma position and push upward upon the rod K which, throu h its connection with the meter, will causct e'j letter to be registered. This operation may, be continued until the carriage of the ty'pe- Patented cease, r914;
