To rti/ In/um i! zit/Lg ((JI'LLRFIL. Be it known that, I, EnnAun hlAItEK v.
Mtnou'rmit, i]. subject of the Emperor of German end a resident of Churlottenburg, Berlin, .h-rnniny, have invented a new and useful lm )I'OVt-Hllfiilt in Devices for the Justilicntion oi the lien th of Lines of 'Iype-W'rib ing or Similur Mac lines, of which the following is a spec fication.
' File present invention relates to type-writ- "ing, composing, ty )c-castin end embossing n'iu'cliines and the like, and us for its object a device for the justification of the lines of Said machines which work in such 21 why that the-separate lines are made in the first place, lay weyol' trial, without regard to the justilh cation or equalization of the lines. The re- .,-iulling shoring" of the length of the lines in then distrilmted'ainong the elements of the text [ormingthelincsnuim-l gvilhoruniong the :unounts of justilimti ion oil the elements oi the text or only nmong HUIIIP olllltill" for example. illt' spurns he'- twcun the Words, und luetly, iii-cording to 1hesnitiihlenetlinu of I lit lllltllttlllittl lltVlHH 25 on which the width of lllt' ch-nwnh ol the textile mode. the linnl prelim-lion ol i he lines taken place, resultinp in lino. ol' the stnlnlitld length which is intended. in this nunnwr ztl'terthe first product ion ol' l'iltll single line namely, the nmount of the shortage :ind ilunumhm' oi the elements: ol" the text among which the same is to he dislriliuii-d may he dcteimined und noted, which may take pli rc .55 either by reading and writing downjor by means of automatic mechanical perforating devices. it is unimportant l'oi' tllu present invention whether thc'linul product ion of the lines in ell'ected hy hand or liy perforated 4 strips which are produced, during the first .fornmlion ol' the text.
The device forming the olijeet ol-thc pro-S entinvention may he usedwith vzu'ioun kinds oftype-writing machines, and also it is irn- 4f, materiel \i hvthei' the nornnd laterul ftlll ol the pup-r in pgpnd for all the keys, in which oustthe t p'uniitc clmru'ctvrs end HpltlitH hetvii-en the words will fill occupy the mime rnnmor the paper, or whether tneiced of the w 'apcr yaries in amount with the separate once written cannot alter it place again on paper, makes the use of the device appear troublesome; but as the second impression can he eli'ccted Automatically and can then he also repeated at the same time as frequently as possible the use of the device,
particularly suitable for the prodpction of 5c urge numbers of copies of a text, as for cir- (:nlurs, business prospectuses, end' the like, where an improved appearance of the typewritten or printed In otter is of advantage.
An important object of the present inven- 6 the text depends.
in general it will he advantageous not to distribute the missing lengths or the shortages among all the vhnructers and spaces of the text, hich shortages are determined for curl: lino hy noting the amount by which I each line :ilter it in written the first time hills rdlult oi the standard length decided upon. but only among spaces between the wordsv This Inuy he Mice-ted by roportioning the nmount ol' thc lttllfll'tll-tllfipl the paper relatively to the amount of the shortage at the end of each line by meansof the: device forming the subject of the present invention. By so doing a greater reliability in eilecting the justilicution or equalization ol the lHHH IS obtained.
Such a. manner of dintrihutionie supposed in the following description. Also it is taken that the linen are at lirst written too short and are then increased to the standard length by means of go the said equalization.
The numher ol' npnces between the words of ouch line nnd the amount of shortage at i the end oicnch lnumny he read and counted at sight or may he registered mechanically 5 on counters and noted down at the end of (infill line, if the text is also registered sep a-, rutel'y, so that the lirst typo-writing of the text can tnke place It page ill, n time without interruption.
When the text liltH l)((l1 type-written once end the equalization vulnvs llll-Vt been found. (or each lnie of the sumo. the second typewritinp; ol" the text mnv take phice by hand or automatically. all it pell'm'nlnd strip will he n'mde sinm'tnacement of 80 if it in don'eautomaticneonsly with the first hype-written text, which will be run through in tlsame or in a similar t pe-writer, as is usually done in the case of igh-speed telegraphy, so that the mechanism of this latter typo-writer, in which the device forming the subject of the present invention comes into action, experiences exactly the same movements as to the order in which the keys are pressed, as those of the type-writer when the text was written the first time.
More consists in a device for the justification or equalization of the lines of ty e-writing inachines and the like, and in or or that the details of construction and action of my inven- .same bein tion may be more clearly understood referonce is made to the accompanying drawings, in which one form of the device is shown, by Way of example, on a type-writing machine,
'it being here taken for granted that the defi cit or shortage is to be only distributed amon the spaces between the words containe in the line which is to be equalized, and in which Figure l is an elevation of the device, and Fig. 2 is an elevation of part of the device, diagrammatically illustrating the action of the stop-lever. Fig. 3 is an elevation of one form of ty e-carrying means and devices connected therewith. Fig. 4 is 'anelevation and diagram of one part of the device, the actuated electrically. Fig. 5 shows in e ovation an alternative form of Fig. 4, the same being actuated mechanicall in Fig. l, T denotes the platen-roll of the type-writer. The same is mounted on the carriage W, which slides over the wheels it and R. .A quadrilateral rod 5 is fastened to the carriage, said rod being pulled by n. spring-barrel F by means of a connectingrod. to the left. Said rod can only answer to this pull when the ball of the clutch or ball slide-stop K, which has been fixed, is moved by the rotation of the bell-crank lever H in' the direction of the arrow from the rod S along the slope on which it runs and when the movable ball-stop K does not already lie with its nose in a ainst the vertical lllvllk ber of tho bell-cranlficver H". At each pres sure of the key while a type at the printing osition is moved to the platen-roll a power ul spring F is extended. Said spring is, on the one hand, attached to the horizontal member of the boll-crank lever H and, on the other hand, isfastened to a rod S, connected with the type-carrying means.
One of the manypossible forms for the connection of the means carryin the type with the rod S is represented in ig. 3 for a t pe-writer in which a drum carries the ty e.
very time a key is pressed the so-cal ed universal rail U, running under all the keys,
articularly, the present invention pressed down, and hereby the angulanshapcd maxing L, of the drum T, to which latter the rod S is suspended rcvolubly at its upper end, is moved in the direction of the arrow to the platen-roll.
A bearing-block L is fastened to the rod S near its lower end, in which a bell-crank lever II is revoluhle. The upper end of said lever is formed like a hook and is provided with a shoulder 1, extending in a vertical direction to the plane of rotation of said lever. Further, a leaf-spring F is attached by screws to the rod i which presses on the above-mentioned shoulder l, and therebv presses the latter to the rod S". The bell crank lever must therefore take up the position shown in full lines in its position of rest 0. When the rod S moves downward, and with it the bell-cranklever H, the same takes with it the end of the rod S, bent to the right,
rotating motion until it hits with its nose 1/.
on the fixed stop t. The nose 1: after moving idle for a certain distance drives the one end of the rod L which is bent downward with it, said rod being mounted dis laceably in the clutch or ball-stop K, and t e other end of the rod L thereby in the first lace releases the lock made by the. ball and t on displaces the entire slide-stop a certain amount to the right. The mechanism of the type-writer is further so arranged that the connection of the rod S with the means carrying the type is released simultaneously with the printing of the type, so that 'the bell-crank lever H, together with the now-released spring F, can return to its position of rest under the action of the weaker spring F For this, purpose,
as is seen in Fig. 3, a fixed sto A is arranged in the path of the left end 0 the said lever H, so that the said end of the lever touches the stop at the same time the rod S brings the type-drum. into the position I. In the further motion of S, therefore, the lever H must rotate in the clockwise direction whereby the spriri F is extended and the bent end 0 the to S is released. As mentioned above, the bell-crank lever H can now return to its position of rest. The bali'sto K' remains in the position shown in dotted ines in Fig. 1, and simultaneously the ball of the hall-clutch K is'pressed between the sloping surface of the clutch and the rod S, as the end of the rod Lwhich is bent downward is now released. As soon as the type is moved away from. the platen-roll the be l-crank lever H is rotated in the direction of the arrow by a suitable connection with the means carrying the type, the ball-lock sf the ball slidesto K is released, and tlia rod S, to Ether wit the carriage W, is moved under I; e action of the spring F. One form. for the work- 1 ing of the bell-crank lever H' is likewise 0 which isfaatened to a vertical rod S", is l showninthe Eig. 3%mqlnacatch-platen *At each lease saga-2s is placed on the rod S, which asses in its downward movement a detent revoluble on toe lever H" and pressed against the pin s bv a spring. The said platen drives detem it only on its return whereby the lever H is their rotated in the clockwise direction. The detent k is so bent and the pin 8 has such a osition that said detent in going upward is rought to the right Outside the engagement of the nose n shortly before returning to its uppermost osition, and therefore the l ell-' crank lever 21 can a ain return into its position of rest under t he action ofits spring. Hereupon the carriage moves so far to the left until the nose w strikes'the vertical member of the hell-crank lever H, whereon the stop K is prevented from going farther. The bell-crank lever H is held fast continuously by the detent 1c when the text is written the first time, so that it cannot yield to the 1 pressure of the nose w. When the text is written a second time,- on the contrary, the
detent k is released by the electromagnct it, i
for example, and the hell-crank lever ll can 5 then rotate underithc pressure of the nose w.
One form of the electrical release ol' the do- .tentjc is shown in Fig. 4. Two rontactsipringl*sf,[f are under thispace-key and are connectet with a source of current e. o.. a battery B, as well as with a l(\'(l'-'-$\\'ll(ll ll" and the electroinagnot, as the figure shows. )ressure of the key the springs and f are el ect-rically connected. ii the level-- switch H is in its lower position, the magnet can be actuated, but not othrrwise. This release can also he eflccted in other aye-'- c. 17., as Fl ES shows Here the tit-tent I; is formed as l cver with two arms. Thidi-tcnt It of a rod. 3, hits on the horizontal arm of said lever k as soon as the rod 5,. being jointed at its lower end with the sparwkry. is brought into the position shown in dotted lines by the lever H. by Inc-ans of a thrust rods when said lever II. is in the position shown in dotted lines, the justification can specification the construction ofparts pretake lace. Now when the detent It is rethe device forming the object of the iresent invention comes into action to set the lateral feed of the aper corresponding to the amount of equa izatio'n. This device is formed by the sliderg and the angle-iron P,
on the horizontal arm of which. the slider g slides, as well as by the boll-crank lever ll".
The vertical arm of the anglieiron l. is movable in the frame or casing (i. which the device works iseasilyseen in Fig. .2, which is formed from the corresponding part of Fig. 1 by the bell-crank lever being thought of as being replaced by an extended onwarmed lever and the angle-iron i being arranged in another position.
and its value may be assumed as, being equal distance] is lnnilo byisotting the angle-iron P equal to th amount of shortage. The space n, Fig. .2, roi'l't-npolltls to the sum of intervals lHl worn the words. and if the number of the intervals between the words is denoted by 2, lln-n o Zr" that is, for justifying the line tho point of contact of slide y has to he removed from the initial point I a distance equal to r for oarh word-space. The nose in in acting on lever ll will move through the distance X before lover ll 'oomes in contact with slide 9, and it follows from the similarit of the two riglil-nnglml triangles that that i which corre- H 5m sponds' to tho condition to l)! l'ill'lillr-(l namely. that the proportionate traction of the total shortage lo llf justilit-il is added to the normal width of a wonhspnco.

While I have described in the foregoing li-rrod, I am aware that numerous changes of construction maybe made without (leparting from the spirit and scope of myinvenlion, and I therefore do not wish to be understood as limiting myself by the employed in connection with i re description ext-opting such as i.ll(' state of the art may require.
