Definitions

  • the primary lobject of thepresent invention is to provide novel and improved? means whereby operating members actuated by i the keyboard may be brought automatically into positionto operate the 1 ,escapjement' actuatingzidevices .for one or another of the magazines; aSJdesired, by v the usual or already existing mechanism ofrthe keyboard, and a i further" object: is to sol construct and arrange suchmeans whereby the same may be controlled by certain keys on the usual keyboard.
  • Such improved matrix-releasing means fora plurality of magazines not only sir n zqlifies theconstruction and operation of the machine but it, also enables the operator to instantly effect shifting of the operating members fromIopera- 45 tive relation with the escapement, actuatingjdevices for one magazine to operative relation with those for another maigazinewithout distraction of the operators attention from the keyboard or, when the machine-is provided with an automatic 50 keyboard operating device the operation of which is controlled by a previously'prepared tape having code punchings representing the respective characters on the keys of the keyboard, the use of "certain keys already comprised within the 55 group making upthe keyboard, forthe purpose of efiecting'a shift ofcompositionffrom one magazine to another, enables such automatic keyboard operating deviceto be readily adapted thereto since the code-punchings already exist-- ing in such devices include punchings for the par- 5 ticular' keyboard 'keys assigned to the shifting operations w To these and'oth'er endsQthe invention consists in certain improvements and combinations and arrangements
  • Figure 3 is a'detailed perspective view, on an enlarged scale, showing portions'ofthe sets of escapement actuating devices and the corresponding-operating members therefor, and the means provided'by the present invention for 25- shifting the operating" members into operating relatiomwithp'ne or another set of the escapement actuating 'devices; and
  • I Figure '4 is a view similar to" Figure 3 but showing the operating'membersshifted from the posi- 30 tion shown in Figure-"3. 7
  • the invention is shown inthpres'ht instance as applied to a machine embodying a single set 35,
  • vertically reciprocatory bars or slides are mounted in a frame 12 so that they may reciprocate substantially vertically therein, and the frame 12 is pivoted at its lower end or substantially,
  • the operating members 11 are arranged in a row and are spaced so that theirupper endswill be in positions to abut directly against theHlower-ends of the escapement actuating. devices ofrthe respective sets 6' and -7 when 'theoperatingjmembers are swung intoposition beneath them.
  • i l I The keyboard maybeof the usual and wellknown construction, substantially as shown and described ,for example in -U: :Patent No.

  • vjcerta-in keys of the. keyboard such as those marked U and L, which are comprisedwithin the group of the. usual ninetycharacter keys of the keyboard, are employed for effecting shifting of the swing ing frame 12 tocarry theaoperating members 11 therein into operating ,relationwith the set 6 or the, set f escapement actuatingdevices for the upper and lower magazines respectively.

  • cams are fixed to the relatively stationary guide 10 for the lower ends of the escapement actuating devices 6 and 7, and they have inclined cam surfaces 22 and 23 respectively on their under sides, these cam surfaces of the cams being inclined in relatively reverse directions and extending transversely of the rows of escapement actuating devices 6 and 7.
  • the upper ends of the "opertaing members 11 and 11 which are arrangedto cooperate with the respective inclined cam surfaces, are preferably correspondingly inclined or beveled at their upper ends, as at 11 'and'll respectively,
