in order that at the end of a line any of the keys may be used, if necessary-t'or example, to iinish oil a word-the operator presses on thenuts n and 0, (n being screwed out against 0,) and thereby forces the lever IB'LO the right,
tain new and useful Device for Locking the I Key-Levers in Typcv'riting Machines, of which-the following is a specification.
This invention relates to a device for lock- 1 ingthe key-levers in type-writers andtheobl ject is to enable the key-levers, in addition to Fig. 1. their ordinai'y locking by the papcr-carare also carried to the right and the key-leriage at the end of the line, to' be locked at l vers thereby released, and, further, the link e any other position of the carriage, sons to and parts attached thereto are uniniluen ced by this movement, since the slot in the link 6 allows the pin on the arm of the lever h to move freely. ()n pressing the nuts 0 and n the spring I. is put in tension, and when the person to use the machine unless the locking; device is released.
The accompanying drawings illustrate one 3 convenient manner of carrying the invention I into eil'ect, Figure 1 being a longitudinal section of a machine with the device applied, and Fig. 2 a front elevation thereof.
The papencarriage a carries a fixed stop I), i which shortly before the end oi the line is reached strikes the stop (1. This stop is ad justable on the rotatable rod 0, soas to the length of-the line, and is provided with a 1 suitable cam-surface, so as to rotate the rod c l on contact with the stop I).
The rod c is provided with a crank c, which on'the rotation ol 0 actuates a link e, which operates the signal-bell y in the usual manner. A spring f is put in tension onthe vers'l. When the machine is not in use, the nut 12 is screwed up against the front plate 91 ol' the machine and the lever 93 thereby nut. ais'screwed out against the lock-nut 0 and the key-levers Z thereby released ready for use.
certained the nature of my said invention and in what manner the same is to be per formed, l declare that what I claim is A locking device for type-writers consisting of a bell-crank lever, a locking-bar carried by one arm thereof, a rocking bar, a link connecting said rocking bar with theother arm of the bell-crank lever, means for rock- .ing the bar by the carriage, a lever having fore tends to return it with the rod 0 to their original posit-ions.
The lower end of the link e is formed with a slot which engages a pin 6 on an arm of one of the side levers h. 'ihese' levers 7tcarry the; locking-bar i, and, on an extension of the arm; on the lever 'h is connected a spring k, adapted, on the downward movement of the rod 0, to draw down the said arm and throw the locking-bar i over to the left, F ig. 1. The I locking-bar thereupon engages projections on the keydevers I, so that depression of any of the keys is impossible.
Connected to the end otthe lever h and swinging therewith is a lever :c, pivoted on hand in presence of two witnesses.
