A rectangular magnet frame 46 secured on said rear Wall has fixed tubular central vertical core M of magnetic material on which is received .a solenoid 42. A plunger core 43 slida-ble in said tubular core has a lower extension bolt 45 in said rectangular opening 33 and is adapted when the magnet is deenergized to extend below the .lleuel of the round opening 35 and when the magnet is energized to be Withdrawn above said ilevel "as shown at the dotted lines 45a.

A rocker arm 59 fast on said ,rockshaft 45 of the feedercut-oii' mechanism is connected by a link 50 to lever arm 51.

Said bolt when the magnet is deenergized ;is adapted to drop to the position shown and to stop said plunger rod, said rock shaft andsaid .feeding mechanism.
Abar 64 mounted between bearings ofsaid roller shafts l1, it between the planes-f ,the upper and lowercourses of the tapes I4 ,and between and remote from the right and .left marginal tapes supports a switch box 65 mounted fasten said bar between saidzcourses, the .upper ,part of the box being just under the plane of the upper course of tapes 1.4 and the sheetv 1.0 of paper carried thereon. A switch .66 in said box ,may he of any suitable type, for instance, the switch shown in United StatesPatent .No. 1,950,020 .issued May 22, 1934, to P. K.

An upright .rod M resting pnsaid leaf spring 69 engages under a feelersfinger J5 ipivotedat 16 in the upper part .of the switch box at the end nearest the printing cylinderssandis adapted, .to be pressed upwardly .by said rod and leaf spring beyond the plane of thesheet of paper .20, .When no sheet is present, thereby to. open the switch and deenergize the magnet, the finger being adapted to be pressed down bya sheet 2.0. when present .on the tapes over the switch, thereby to close the switch and energize the mag-net. Said switch 5.5 is in such a position under the sheets that in. normal operation a sheet .is over the switch .to depress the finger l5 and close the switch and energize the magnet and retract .the extension bolt 45 .at :the time that the plunger rod, BI is normally projected across the-path of thebolt; whereby :if a sheet Zil-should fail, to be .fed ,or should get wrapped around :a cylinder vpr 4 should for that or any other reason fail to be on the tapes l4 over the switch 56 when the plunger rod BI is about to be projected across the path of the bolt, the finger I5 will be raised, the switch opened, the magnet deenergized, the bolt 45 dropped and the plunger 6!, the rock shaft 46 and the feeding mechanism stopped, thus to prevent waste of paper or injury to the press.
The operation will be easily understood from thee-foregoing. The press isioperated'zin the ordinary way, the bolt 45 being held retracted by closing a starting switch 16 until a sheet is over the switch 65, closing the switch 66 and holding ethe bolt -45--retracted. Then the switch 15 is opened and the machine is continued in operation inthe ordinary way; but if for many reason asheet 20. should not appear over the switch, the switch will open and the feeding mechanism stopguntil the operation is corrected.
