DAMPED TRANSFER ARRANGEMENT FOR A COUNTER BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a damping arrangement effective during the transfer of intermittent movements of counter wheels in counters, particularly for the tenstransfer in rapidly rotating counters.
In gas stations, where gasoline is automatically metered, counters including a plurality of ordinal counter wheels are used, which are connected with each other by tenstransfer means.
It is necessary that the counter wheels have large indicating wheels which require that the counter wheels have certain minimum size, and consequently a certain minimum mass which cannot be further reduced without impairing the legibility of the indication. Particularly, with the counter wheel of the lowest order, which is the driven input counter wheel and indicates the smallest units, difficulties occur because a minimum size and mass cannot be further reduced, while on the other hand, for economic reasons, the greatest possible amount of flow of liquid through the apparatus is to be registered. Particularly the number wheels of the lowest order, and during the tens-transfer also the number wheels of the higher orders, must be driven at very high rotary speeds, and must be able to withstand the high loads resulting therefrom.
In known counters, the input counter roller is continuously rotated by means of a gear secured to the respective counter wheel. During a transfer operation by.
which a unit has to be transferred to the next higher order and if necessary also to further higher orders, a transfer lug, which is fixedly connected with the input counter wheel, strikes while rotating at high speed, the toothed flanks of a tens-transfer gear which turns about an axis parallel to the axis of the counter wheels. The tens-transfer gear also meshes with the gear of the counter wheel of the next higher order and cooperates with a cam disc which locks the transfer gear, but releases the transfer gear for angular movement when a unit is to be transferred.
Counters of this type have the great disadvantage v that the transfer lug strikes the respective tooth of the transfer gear, which is at first at a standstill, with a very hard impact. In the same moment, acceleration of a mass is required, which depends on the number of counter wheels to be shifted, and the accelerated masses must be rapidly decelerated until the transfer gear is again in the normal position. The occurring force peaks must be sustained without damping, and even if high quality material is used, disturbances and damage frequently occur, because the material cannot resist the high stresses. Furthermore, the load peaks of the impacts have also an effect on the drive means of the counter, and may detrimentally influence the precision of the values metered by the counter, and the exact transfer of such values to the indicator.
Another construction of the prior art provides a transfer means which consists of two coupling elements connected by a torsion spring. To assure the complete transfer operation, additional connecting means are required, and the device consists of a great number of parts so that manufacture and maintenance is expensive. The resilient coupling element has no effect dur- SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is one object of the invention to provide a resilient transmission of the intermittent movements of counter wheels in counters, which overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art.
Another object of the invention is to dampen impacts of cooperating teeth in the tens-transfer device of an ordinal counter.
In accordance with the invention, the teeth of the counter wheels, and of the tens-transfer device are formed with cutouts so that the teeth are resilient and dampen impacts thereon. Preferably, also the peripheral rim of a transfer wheel is formed with a cutout and rendered resilient for damping the impact of a tooth of a tens-transfer gear.
In order to make resilient the zones where the peak forces prevail, and to transform impact energy into the deformation of an elastic zone, in the preferred embodiment of the invention, the teeth have cutouts equidistant to the tooth flanks so that resilient flank walls are formed between the addendum circle and the dedendum circle of the tooth. For the same reason, the resilient flank walls axially project from a supporting disc, and may be located on one side or on both sides of the disc. In order to render the damping particularly effective, all forcetransmitting elements of the apparatus are formed with cutouts and made resilient.
The novel features which are considered as characteristic for the invention are set forth in particular in the appended claims. The invention itself, however, both as to its construction and its method of operation, together with additional objects and advantages thereof, will be best understood from the following description of specific embodiments when read in connection with the accompanying drawing.

DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS The portion of a counter shown in FIG. 1 includes counter wheels 1 and 2 correlated with successive decimal orders, and being mounted for free rotation on a shaft 3 supported by lateral walls, not shown. It is assumed that counter wheel 1 is the counter wheel of the surfacel5.

All transfer wheels 21 can be mounted for rotation on a shaft 22 parallel to counter shaft 3. When simultaneous tens-transfer between several pairs of counter wheels take place, the tens-transfer means according to the invention dampen the peak forces occurring during simultaneous tenstransfer in several orders since the energy is used for deforming the elastic parts.
By carefully selecting the dimensions for the teeth according to the invention, together with the use of a suitable elastic material, the disadvantages of known counter damping apparatus are overcome. Particularly, the present invention has the result to dampen simultaneously occurring tens-transfers by constructing all parts which engage each other of an elastic material.
Breakage is avoided, the transfer is quiet, and wear is reduced so that the life span of an arrangement according to the present invention is increased as compared with the prior art. No forces are transmitted to the metering device for a liquid from which the counter is driven.
The apparatus of the invention has substantially the same space requirements as known counter arrangements, and can be used with conventional metering apparatus.
It will be understood that each of the elements described above, or two or more together, may also find a useful application in other types of damping transfer arrangements for counters differing from the type described above.
While the invention has been illustrated and described as embodied in a damped tens-transfer arrangement including hollow resilient teeth for damping impacts during a tens transfer, it is not intended to be limited to the details shown, since various modifications and structural changes may be made without departing in any way from the spirit of the present invention.
Without further analysis, the foregoing will so fully reveal the gist of the present invention that others can by applying current knowledge readily adapt it for various applications without omitting features that, from the standpoint of prior art, fairly constitute essential characteristics of the generic or specific aspects of this invention and, therefore, such adaptations should and are intended to be comprehended within the meaning and range of equivalence of the following claims.
