application filed (Yctober 3, 1919. Serial. No. 328,113-
To all evhom it may concern:
Be it known that I, CHARLES Kanrr, a citizen of the United States, and a' resident of the city 0'? Few York, borough of the Bronx, in the county of Bronx and State of New York, have invented a new and ,Improved Type and Type-Bar, of which the following is a full. clear, and exact description.
This invention relates to improvements in type and type barsfand more particularly for type and type bars such as used on typewriters, an object of the invention being to provide an improved construction of type and type bar and improved means for securing thetype to the type bar so as to insure a perfect alinement to rigidly and permanently connect the type to the bar and to obviate the use of solder as commonly employed for the purpose.
A further object is to provide improveplify the assemblage of parts and in which the operation can be readily carried out by anyone of average intelligence, not requiring skilled labor for the purpose.
To provide'a construction oi type bar and type with the improved means for securing them together which will absolutely prevent displacement of the parts and which will insure a perfect alinement is the primary object of my invention and in the accompiishment of this object certain novel features of ments of parts are resorted to, as will be more fully hereinafter described and pointed out in the claims.
in the accompanying drawings Figure 1 is a' plan View illu strating the manner of assembling the type and type oars;
2 is an enlarged view in section on the line 2-2 of Fig". 1;
Fig.3 is a. view n transverse section on the line 3-3 of Fig. 2;
Figs. 4 and 5 are enlarged fragmentary views in elevation oi"; the opposite faces ot the end of the type bar;
Figs. 6 and 'Z are similar views showing the type bar with the type\ attached Fig. 8 is a view in section on the of Fig. 6; and
Fig. 9 is a view in section on the hne 9 9 of Fig. 7.
1 represents a slotted segment, such as is line 8--@ typewriter in order to properly commonly employed on the typewriter for pivotally supporting the type bars 2, and it is, of course. to be understood that the type bars are so shaped that a particular bar is designed to (it a particular slot as is customary in the art.
3 represents a notched guide plate which .is secured to the segment 1 and 4 is an annement plate which I secure to the segment and which is made with a groove 5 to receive the type 6 therein and support the same in proper position for engagement with the type bar 2.
It is, of course, to'be understood that the operation of assen'ibling the type on the type bar is done entirely separate from the typewriter and the bars with the type thereon are to be furnished and assembled during I the assemblage of the machine. I merely utilize the segment 1 similar to that on the assemble the type and bars together.
The type 6 the usual pairof type faces '2' at its edge and is of general bifurcated form in transverse section, the two members 8 and 9 snugly fitting against the sides of the type bar 2. The type bar 2 in oneface has a groove 10, but its other face is normally smooth and without irregularity in'surface.
These two sides of the type bar are best illustrated in Figs. 4 and 5. 'lhe two members 8 and 9 before assemblage of the parts fare also smooth and without projections or in dentations of any character.
-When the type 6 is in the groove 5., as shown in Fig. 1., the type bar 2 is moved so that its free end enters the bifurcated type. 'While i this position a suitable tooi, not shown, having a pair of jaws is brought into operation. One aw of said tool acts to press or force the intermediate portion of the member 8 tightly into the groove 10 of the type bar, as clearly shown in Fig. 6, while the other member serves to punch transverse into the member v9 of the indentations 11 type in a plane at right angles to the plane These indentations, as illusot the type.
1n alinement with the trated, are preferably groove 10 and'they' constitute in effect lockbite into the metaling spurs or lugs whicl oi the type her as shown in Fig; 9. I preterahv provide a plurality of these inl J 7 U dentations which manitestly cooperate or 2 .t with the inwardly pressed metal of the intermediate portion of the member 8 in the groove 10 whereby the type is permanently and securely locked to the type bar and inde pendent movement thereof in any direction and however slight is thus impossible.
The connection 1s such a secure one that the device Will stand all of the pounding to which type of this character necessarily is sub ected and Will maintain a perfect ahnement for a maximum length oi tlme.
' In fact the alinement is assured by the man ner of assembling the type and the bar, as shown in Fig. l, and hence it is not necessary for an operator to adjust the type to secure a perfect alinement during the assemblage of the typewriter as the type and bars are perfectly formed before the assemblage of the typewriter is attempted and hencethe operation of assembling the typewriter is listener bifurcated body portion receiving the bar,
one member of said bifurcated portion being pressed into the grbove of the bar and transverse indentations in the other member of the body portion punched into the other face of the bar and coiiperating with the pressed in portion of said first member to lock the type to the bar and against inde pendent movement in any direction.
2. The combination with a type bar har ing a groove in one face, of type having a bifurcated body portion receiving the bar, one member of said bifurcated portion being pressed into the groove of the bar and the other member of said bifurcated portion having indentations punched therein and into the bar in substantial alinement with said groove and cooperating with the pressed in portion of said first member to lock the type to the bar and against independent movement in any direction.
