  • F163 is apartially broken plan view of thetape feeding mechanism in the embodiment of FIG. I, wherein the projection formed by the driving member and its relation to the drive wheel is shown;
  • FIG. 4 is a, view, similar to FIG. 3, wherein there is shown how, upon operating the lever,of the machine, the driving member angularly displaces the drive wheel which controlsthe forward motion of the tape;
  • FIG. 5 is a partial top plan view, of .the machine, illustrating the mechanism in correspondence with the position shown in FIG. 4, the arrows indicating the direction of the various displacements;
  • FIGAS is a view, similar to FIG. 4, which shows the lateral projecting part of the top of the driving member reaching the end opening of the support thereof, the driving member continuing its axial displacement corresponding to the step of printing on the belt or tape.
  • my improved manual pocket or purse-size labelling machine includes, as do similar machines, a main body a upon which there is mounted at one end, a stamping section b driven by a hollow lever c.
  • the lever c is pivotally connected to the body a at l.
  • the lever c pivots in the operative movement against the tension of an internal spring 2, which returns the lever c to the start position.
  • Inside the body a is the mechanism d for feeding the tape or belt forward.
  • the mechanism d responds to the angular displacement operation of the lever through a driving member e.
  • the labelling or stamping mechanism is generally of well known construction and has been used in such stamping or labelling machines, which belong to the public domain.
  • the stamping machine b includes a matrix or die wheel 3, which is rigidly and concentrically connected to a wheel 4 with arms. having die ends which constitute punches defining a die set with the matrix wheel dies.
  • the track 6 Transverse of the body a there is mounted a member 6, the track for the belt.
  • the track 6 has an opening-7 for the passage of a selected punch from the wheel 4 when an arm thereof is pushed by the upwardly projecting pressure-exerting member 8 positioned on the internal face of the lever c.
  • a shaft or axis 9 is mounted within the body.
  • a wheel 10 with grooves or teeth thereon is mounted on the shaft 9 and under the belt.
  • the teeth on the wheel 10 constitute the drive means for the belt.
  • the wheel 11 has teeth with one of their sides substantially radial and the other side approximately normal to that of the adjacent tooth, thus defining between said adjacent teeth, substantially right angles.
  • the radial side receives the driving force from the driving member.
  • the wheel 10, the shaft 9, and the drive wheel 11 are preferably unitarily formed.
  • a thin partition 12 extends downwardly from the upper internal face of the body a.
  • the lower edge of the partition 12 has a forwardly projecting platform 13.
  • the edge of the platform 13 faces the unit formed by the wheels 10 and 11 and includes a projecting part 14 which presents a space for the stem 15 of the driving member e which is received in the space defined adjacent the projecting part 14.
  • the stem 15 has screw threads formed therein which are received by the threaded opening 16 in a projection 17 molded integrally with the wall of the bottom of the lever c, as seen in FIGS. 1, 4 and 6.
  • the upper end of the stem 15 has, above the platform 13 in which it is received, a head 18 having a laterally projecting arm 19 which, in its inoperative position, engages against a projection 20 on the upper face of the platform 13, as shown in FIG. 3.
  • the stem 15 has a lower arm 21' which projects laterally and which acts as the pushing or driving force.
  • the lower arm 21 constitutes the intermediate stop for the translational movement of the driving member e.
  • the operation of the forward drive mechanism for the belt or tape is very simple and effective.
  • the lever c is pivoted inwardly as shown in F104, starting from the inoperative or rest position illustrated in FIGS. 1, 2, and 3.
  • the driving member e is also displaced until a lateral appendage 22 thereon engages the lower face of the platform 13, stopping the displacement of the stem 15.
  • the threaded opening 16 receiving the lower end of the stem 15, causes the stem 15 to rotate so that the lever 0 can be displaced relative to the stem 15.
  • stemlS screws into the threaded opening 16, thereby rotating.
  • the lateral arm 21 engages'the radial edge of a tooth of the drive wheel 11, causing rotation or angular displacement of the wheel 11, the shaft 9, and the wheel 10.
  • the wheel 10 displaces in a dire ction to cause feeding of the belt or tape to the stamping position for the stamping device 8.
  • the pivoting or angular displacement of the lever c is continued in the same direction of operation, causing a continuation of the angular displacement of the stem 15 until the appendage 22 passed up through the opening in the platform 13.
  • the stem 15 stops rotating, moves upwardly to the top with saidlever 0 until the pressing element 8 causes stamping on the belt or tap by moving a punch on the wheel 4 upwardly into the Eie on the wheel 3, causing the desired character to be printed on the tape.
