WILLIAM II. MUZZY, DAYTON, OHIO; ASSIGNOR T THE NATIONAL CASH REGISTER COMPANY, O F DAYTON, OI-IEB, A CORPORATION OF OHIO; (INCORPORATED IN 1906.)

.Beit 'known that I, W'ILLIAM H. MUZZY, va citizen of the United States, v-residing at Dayton, in .thecounty of'4 Montgomery and State of Ohio, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in .Cash-Registers, of which I declare, the following to be a full, clear, and exact description.

, 'Ihis invention relatesto improvements in cash registers, calculating machines or the 'likeQzandha-s more particular relation to. im-

' t rovements inthe 'Y printing mechanism ofl thefsa'me.-

The principal object of the invention 1s 4the provision of mechanismv for` printing totals on a strip, slip or checkin such a manner as to clearlydistinguish them from the preceding items.' A .further object of the invention is to employ the regular printer controlling devices in'conneotionwith the printing of totals.

keys 1 Vcontrols avariable movable v'segment 2' Which is loosely mounted upon a transverse rock shaft 3. This segment meshes .with a gear 4 which inturn engages a pinion 5 connected to an indicator 6 mounted upon a shaft 7. Eaclr gear 4 also meshes with a-pinion 8, `see Fig. 5,.Which has se-v cured to its side a smaller pinion 9 ,"adja.` cent to Which is a pinion 10 of the same size, that is fastened to a lshortsleeve 11 mounted upon a shaft 12, the pinions 8 and 9 being loosely mounted upon 'the said sleeve. A registering Wheel 14 is also secured tothe sleeve 11. Double Width pinions l, mounted in thev upper end sfo'f-a-rms 16 which are .fastened to a rock shaft 17 are arrangedto berocked into mesh with the pinions 9 and 10 and thereby couple the same together, so that. the registering movement of the segmentQ Will be'transmitted tothe Wheel 14 through the gear 4: and the pinions, 8, 9,'10 and`15. -The pinions 1'5 areirocked into engagement with the pinions 9 and 10 by alink 18 the forv'vard end of which is provided with a recess 19 that engages with a pin 20 projecting from the lower end of one of the arms 16, While the rear end is bifurcated :and 'straddles a Vrotary shaft 21 fast to which .is a disk 22 link 18. Any suitable form of transfer mechanism may be employed' between the Wheels 14 so that the different amounts registered may be iaccumulated Vinto one grand4 total.

It is of course to be understood that-each bank of keys l,controls a registering lWheel 111 and connected to each Wheel bythe sleeve 114 is a disk 25 which` is lprovided with a cam groove 26, 'into Whichextendsa pin 27 mounted upon the upper end of 'a vertical rod 28. Each rod 28 is enlarged `vat its 'upper end and is provided With an elongated slot 29 through which. extends `the sleeve 11. This sleeve acts as a guide for the upper end ofthe rod While the lower end is guided by a projection 30 extending from the frame 31 of the machine. Near 'the' lower end vof eachrod 28 is a pin 32 which enters an elon-y gated slot 33 formed in the inner end of an arm 34C. Each arm 34: is also Lprovided at its inner end with another elongljated slot 35' through which the shaft 3 extends. A'collar .36 which partially surrounds .the `shaftv3 is slidably mounted within Vthe slot 35 and is 4 held in contact with said vvshaft by a coil spring 37 which isinterposed'between -one end of the slot 35 and the collar 36.v This spring also keeps the other end of the slot,

Whichis semi-circular, normally in contact with the shaft 3. The outer end of each arm 34 is provided with. a liange 38 which draws the keys inward as hereinafter dethe 4position 'shown in Fig. 1. As each wheel *A is rotated in .thedirection ofthe arrow in said figure,'its disk 25: will also be rotated carrying .the rod 28 upwardly, which in y turn, by the pin 32and'the slot F33, will 4 keys 1.

' the tension of the springs 53, then suddenly y lift the arm 34 so as to bring its Harige 38 jover one of the pins 39 projecting from the It will be seen from the above de scription, that the keys' 1 corresponding to the amount shown on the registering Wheels 14 will be depressed when the arms 34 are canuned inwardly as hereinafter described. The gears 4 are secured to the inner endsof a series of nested sleeves 40, which carry at their outer ends type segments 41, see lFig. 2. Each segment is provided with one large and onesmall series of duplicate types 42 and 43 respectively, the smaller type for printing the items and the larger type for recording thetotals. A pair of levers 44 and 45 are pivoted upon a stub shaft 46 vextend? ing from the side frame of the machine- These levers are provided at their pivotal points, with upwardly and downwardly extending arms 47 and 48 and at their forwardl ends each is provided with a laterally extending -arm 49, which carries arubber impression block 50, see Fig. l5,r The arms 47 are provided with rollers 51, which are held in contact with the periphery of a cam 52 secured to one end of the rotary shaft 21, by springs 53,'. only one of which is shown. The shape of the cam 52 is such, that during a c complete revolution, the levers 44 and 45 will be moved downwardly against drawn upwardly to take an impression upon a record strip 54 from the type carriers 4 1 andthen moved slightly'away from the type Acarriers as shown in Fig. 2. The

platen lever 44 is arranged to take an im-` pression from the item types while the lever 45 is arranged to take the totals. As both levers 44 `and 45 are operated upon each operation ofthe machine and it is not desirable to take the total while printing the items o r to print an item when the total is recorded, the following mechanism is` provided: A. lever 55 is pivoted to the frame of the machine and is provided with lateral extensions 56 which, when the items are being printed, liein the path of the downwardly extending arm 48 of the total printing lever 45 and thus prevents the striking of the total types by the block of the lever 45.. When the total is to be recorded, the lever is moved upwardly by mechanism hereinafter described, so that the extensionti will 'intercept the downwardly extending arm-48 of the item platen lever 44 and at the same time freeing the-arm 43 of the total lever. 45. I

The record strip 54 is .led from a supply roller 59 which is supported loosely upon a shaft `50 over guide pins 58 to the feed roller 59a. The shaft 60 carries 'fast thereon a ratchetwheel 61 and a pinion 62. A plate G3 equipped with elongated slots G4 and 65 which straddle the shaft 60 of the supply roller and the nested sleeves 40 respectively, is provided` with a spring pressed pawl G6 which engages the ratchet 61 and feeds the ratchet forward, when the plate 63 is moved upwardly by a cam 67 coming into contact with a roller 68 secured to the upper end of the plate 63. The said plate is retractedv by a coil spring 69 one end of which is securedto the frame of the machine and the other end to the plate. The cam 67 is secured to a pinion 70 loosely mounted upon the outer end of the sleeves 40 and is arranged to be rotated by an idle pinion 71 which meshes with another pinion 72 secured to the rotary shaft 21. The feed roller 59 is provided with a gear 60a which meshes with a pinion 6.1 which in turn meshes with a pinion 117 connected to gear pinion 62 through an intermediate pinion 118. Through the train of gears aforesaid, the feed roller is thus advanced one step after eachprinting operation. At each operation of the machine the sliding plate G3 is reciprocated, and this through pawl GG rotates slightly theratchet 61, which through the gear train shown including pinions 62, 11S, 117, 61 and 60, serves to rotatethe feeding roller 59a. As the details are successively printed, it will be seen that each detail impression is moved through the aforesaid mechanism directly under the corresponding total types, for this reason it becomes necessary to give the. strip an extra `feed whenever it is desired to print a total.

This additional feed is secured by a spring pawl 88 secured to a reciprocating part 83 hereinafter described and -which is moved only when a total impression is to be taken. Itv will be seen by reference to Figs. 2 and 7 that the totals are printed directly under the details but in very large hold faced vtype which is easily distinguished from the de,- tail type. Further. after a total is printed, the regular feed of the strip takes piaf-,e

and the next succeeding detail printed will 13G thus be two spaces below the totalon account of the location of the detail type in respect to the total type. In other oowords, a space will be left on the strip under each total .printed whereby each group' of details and its vtotal will be separated from the remaining details and totals. Y

A transverse shaft 73 is mountedin the lower rear portion fof the 4machine and eX- 10 tends throughoutv the entire 4width of said machine. An arm-74 for each bank of keys is rigidly secured to the shaft and is yconnected to another arm 75 loosel mounted upon the' shaft 3 bya link 7 6. henever it is desired to record the amount shown on the adding wheels 14 a 'handle 77 secured to` one endof the shaft -7 3 is moved so as to rotate said shaft in the direction vof the arrow shown inFig. v1, thereby rocking the arms 74 and 75 in a similar direction. Connected to each arm 75 is a cam 78 which engages a roller 79 secured to the inner end of each arm 34- and cams the latter inwardly. As previously described, the cam disks 25, which are connected to the registering wheels 14 control the location of the arms 34, so it'will be seen that as the arms 34 are cammed inwardly, they will carry the keys 1, corresponding to the amount shown on the.-v wheels 14, with them b meansof the flanges' 38 and the pins39. his movement of the shaft 73 also raises a forked shaped frame 80, see Fig-2, by means of a cam 81 secured l to the'end of the shaft 73 which engages a roller 82 mounted in the lower endv of the. frame. This frame is guided bya projec-A tion l83 extending from the frame of the machineuand is arranged to belatchedzinats raisedposition by a shoulder 8 4 forlrned upon a spring pressed pawl 85 pivoted to a prong 86 of the frame 80, engaging a proJection 87 extending from thel frame. The other prong 88 of the frame' 80 normally lies under thelever 55 so that when the frame 80 is raisedthe lever'will be moved from the path of the arm 48 of the total lever 45t() in front of the arm 48 of the itemv lever 44.

Near the end of the operation of the machine and after the printing has taken place, a lug 89 secured to the rotary shaft 2l will engage with thefupper end of the pawl 85 and release the shoulder 84 fromv engage.- meut with the projection 87 thereby allowing the frame 8O to return to nor-mal position with the lever in the path of the arm 18 of the total lever 45.

The amount represented by the keys 1 set 11p-by the operation of the total crank 77 would be added upon thev registering wheels 14Q by an operatiionpf the crank handle 90, butv for the following mechanism: A pin 91 projecting' from one of the links 7 6,;see Fig. 1, near the end of 'the movement of said link toward the rear of the machine contacts a shoulder '92 vformed `upon a link 93,

- .'wardly extending arm 102 -in turn mesh with which is pinned at its forward end to a lever 94 v'and'at its rear end is provided with an elongated/slot 95 throughrwhich a pin 96 projects and acts as a guide for said link. As the link 93 moves rearwardly, the shoulder 92 cams a latching plunger 97 upwardly nected at one end tothe lower lever 94 and at the other end to the front tie bar 100 of the machine. The lever 94 is secured to one 4vend of a short pivoted shaft 101, which carries at its other end, see Fig. 2, a short uplug 103, which, when the lever 94 is rocked, as above described, will be brought into the path of the flange 104 secured to the side of a cam 105 fastened to'the rock shaft 3. 4Nowmwhen the crank handle 90 is rotated, that part of the cam 105 cal rying the flange 104 will be rocked downwardly, thereby throughmeans of lug 103 and ange 104, rocking shaft 101 an additional istance, so that the upper end of lever 94, see Fig. 1, will engage with the forward end of link 18 and raiseA the latter so as to disconnect provided with a I .by preventing the rocking of the pinions 15 to couple the pinionsl 9 and 10 when the link 18 is cammed forward. Near the end of the operation of the machine, a shoulder 106 formed upon a disk 107, secured to the shaft 21 will engage'with a roller 108 mounted iu .the upper end of the plunger 97 and raise' .the latter to disengage its lower end from the shoulder 92 of the link 93, thereby permitting the return of the parts to normal position by means of the spring.99. The plunger 97 is guided in its vertic'alkmovexnent by a frame 109 suitably securedto the back of the machine. During `.this ,operation of the machine, vthe segabove described keys are depressed, will be rocked until arrested by saidkeys These segments as previously described engage with gearsA 4 which the indicators 6. It will beseen from this construction, that when the total crank 77 is actuated and the'handle 90 operated, the amount represented by the keys depressed will be displayed by the indicators but will not be added upon the accumulatingmechanism.

The movementv of the shaft 73 toward the rear of the machine by the total crank 77, is limited by a lug 110 secured to" the shaft 73 contacting witha pin 111 projecting from the machine frame, the return movement of the total crank being limited by a pin 112 with which thelug 110 contacts.

pinions 5 connected to .iin inlring ribbon 113 which surrounds the record strip is led around guide pins 1,14

and a teltabsorbent roller 115 which is se# cured to a stub shaft 116 that carries a pinion'1l7 at its innerend, This pinion meshes with a similar pinion 118 which in turn engages the pinion 62., From this construction it will be seen that as the record strip is fed forward, the ribbon will alsobe moved.

IVhile it is necessary to have a series of setting elements for eachl ,registering wheel employed to control the setting of the total printing types, it is not necessary where there are employed a great number of wheels, that all of these setting elements should extend beyond the frame of the machine in the shape of keys.

It will of course be understood that the regular operation of the machine may give the detail strip suiiicient feed to equal the combined widths of the corresponding detail and total types, in which case it would not be necessary to employ the additional feed device connected to the total lever. In this event, however, considerable of the de- 'tail strip would be wasted, as the detailsv would be printed quite far apart. I therefore prefer to employ the construction shown, `in which the detail amounts are printed as close together as is consistent with legibility.

It is to be understood that while I have show the platen levers 44C and 45 under the control of the total printing crank 77, this part of the invention is not to be limited to the printing of items and totals, but may be employed in any recording mechanism using a plurality of 'impression devices.

By the term selective devices used in some of the claims, it is meant to cover broadly any means for selecting or determining the amount to be registered, indicated or recorded. y

V'hile the form of mechanism herein shown and described is admirably adapted to fulfil the objects primarily stated, it is to be understood that it is not intended to confine the invention to the one form of embodiment herein shown and described, for it is susceptible of embodiment in various forms all coming within the 'scope of the claims which' follow. v
