of my present invention, to explain here that the esonpement dog whieh cooperates,with the toothed escapel'nent WheelO is a, Qmted by an arm. S, Fig. 3, fest upon a rook shaft T which has fastened to it at opposite sides of the nmehine forwardly projeeting'side arms 3 U which carry at their'front ends the univer sol her V underlying the keyv levers A, so that when anyone of said levers is depressedthe shaft T will he roeked to operate the e'sei .peinent meehnnisn end advance the paper-- carriage one step, it eoiled spring S servii'ig; to returii'i th eseapenient dog to nornml po-' sition whei'i the operated. key. lever is released.

The foregoing; is the norn'nil operation ol. i esoopement ineehoi'iisn'i, under which the paper-en; ioge ,ttd fnneed one letti-rr-spnee at eneh on vion of ony one of the levers A; bu t ned hing-atom eid eppliestion, if the esoope it dog he or nlmorinei iorwnrd movementit will he entirely disen d tronii the esoepoineni wheel ti and ierehy entirely release the paper-e ige from the control of the es. eepern 1 i tlllSlfl and lem o it fr to to in: drown. to the fi thy its sprin intil n. rre,-;teddeserihed. the present instenee the means provided fol. giving the {ESijttlltHllQ-lil'h dog such extreme forward .nio'vei'nei'it consists of the tnhuliiitor key lm'ersj torzning port of my novel tel):

5 ends the finger-buttons B indicating the denominational value of each lever. Each of the levers A" is provided with an upwardly exteni'linghooked arm E adapted to engage a cross-rod F connecting the side arms U of the universal bar V which operates the escape-merit mechanism as heretofore described,.and the adjustment of the parts is such that whenever any one of the tabulator leversA is depressed to its limit of movement its hooked arm IE will swing the frame U U V downward a considerable distance further than it is depressed. by the normal operations of the regular type-levers A, with the result that the upper end of the arm S will be thrown forward. beyond its normal limit of movement and the escapement dog he thereby entirely disengaged from the escapement; if 0, so that the paper-carriage will he ly released and left free to be drawn to the left by its spring as before explained. For the purpose of preventing the paper-carriage being drawn too suddenly and violently toward the left, however, I provide a brake device operated by the tabulator key-levers A and consisting of a friction spring G", Fig. 3, fastened at its lower end to the rockshaft T and adapted to hear at its upper end agaii'ist the rear side ofthe rotary spring barrel or casing P. Whenthe shaft '1 is rocked forward by the operation of any one of the key-levers A the up-' per end ofthe spring G will be forcedfagainst the rear face of the spring barrel and prevent too rapid rotation of it under the action of the spring. This brake spring .may be applied'to the escapenient wheel O,'instead of the casing P.

Secured to the upper rear side of the papercarriage near its middle, and projecting rear- 15 \vardly therefrom, is a bracket plate H nhich carries a graduated contact piece 1, Figs. 1, 2 and 3, adapted to coeperate \ii'i'h stops J mounted upon and adjustablev longitudinally of a rock shaft K lliCll is 1nounted at its opposite ends in bearings upon supporting brackets l/ upon the frame of the machiiu-fFigs; 1, 2 and 3, and surroui'nled. at its right-hand cnd \iith a coiled. spring K \ihich serves to yieldingly hold it in and re turn it to normal position. The graduated contz'icLpiet-c l is curved in cross section approxinnu'ely; concentric to the rock shaft K Fig. 3. and i'irovidcd upon its left. hand side "with a series of'stops or shoulders c1 arranged 60 in regular retr at lug. order from left to right and from front to roar, Fig. 1 ..and. forming a "series; of contact surfaces separated. from each other byehc length of a regular letter 's ace niovcnn-nt. oh the papercarriage. fi l-lest steps or i'shoulders a correspond in towards the left.

number to the tabulator key-levers A and are adapted to cooperate with the stops J upon the rock shaft K. When said shaft is in normal position the stops J stand out of the path of movement. of the contact piece I upon the papenearriage, so that the latter is free to be moved in either direction without regard to said stops. When, however, the shaft K is turned rearward a greater or less distance its stops. J will be carried into line with one'or another of the shoulders (1 upon the contact piece I, so that if the paper-carri'age be then permitted to, move toward. the 1 left it ill be arrested by the contact of-the piece I with the first stop J standing inits path. Now, by the neans hereinafter described, the several tabulator key-levers A are arranged to cooperate with the rock shaft K in such manner as to turn the latter different degrees of distance according to the different denon'iinational values of such keylevers, nit-h the result that when any given key-lever is operated the shaft will be turned to a point to bring the stops J into line with the corresponding shoulder or cont act/surface or upon the contact piece 1. if the rock shaft li. be turned ust far enough to carry the stops'J into line n ith the right hand. and rearmost shoulder or ei'intact surface (I the paper-carriage ii ill be permitted a maximum movement to the left before being arrested .1. by the first stop standing in the path of said contact piece I; while if the shaft is'turned so as to carry the-stop J into the path, of some one of the shoulders (.1 at the left of the -100 one .memioned, the paper-carriage \i ill be, arrested at an earlier point in its movement There are in the presem 1' instance, as shoun in Fig. 1., eight tabula'tor keys, uhichmay be taken to 1cp1 csc11t, res'i')cciivel a decimal point or period and dif fercnt denominations of value from units a; millions, reading in regular order from right to left; andthe graduated contact piece I is. .rovided n ith eight shoulders or contact sur- K110 fhces a corresponding in relative position or order with the eight tabulator keys. As n ill be seen from the foregoing explanation, whenever any one of the tabulaa.

tor keys operated the rock shaft K will be so turned as to carry the stops J intoFline/ ith the corresponding shoulder or contact surface wupon the graduated contact piece, I. carried by the paper-carriage, and inasmuch as the operation of such tabulatorkey \iillI also serve (in the manner and by the means heretofore explained) to disengage theescapernent mechanism and release the papercarriage, the result will be that the latter will be drawn to the left by its spring'until arrested by contact of one of the stops J with the shoulder or contact. surface a into line with \\lli(l1 the stops J" have been carried, which shoulder or contact surface will 1 re the one, corresponding to the particular 1,39

tabulator key which had been operated, and the paper-carriagewill consequently be arrested at a point for the printing to be effected in the denominational columnof figures corresponding to the tabulator key. which time been operated.

Any suitable connections betweenthe tabfulator' ke .-levers-A and the rock shaft K upon its under side with a depending plate or wing N whose lower edge is inclined upwardly from the right toward the left of the machine (from left to right in Fig. 2), which win" is'adapted to cooperate with a series of gra uated cams 0 formed upon the upwardly extended rear-ends b of the tabulator key-levers I Owing to the dilferent lengthsof the vertical extensions bof the sition while their key-levers A and to the engagement of their cams O withthe wing N at different distances from the axis of the rock shaft M, it follows that the operations of the dill'erent key-levers will impart different degrees of movement to said shaft, and the construction and adjustment of the parts are such that the movement thus given the shaft by the operation of each tabulator key will correspond to the denominational value or position of such key. The shaft has secured. upon its right hand end-a vertically extending arm P whose upper end. is connected by a pivoted linkQ with an arm It fast upon and projecting forwardly from the rock shaft K, Figs. 3 and 4. When the shaft M is rocked by the operation of any tabulator key the upper end of the arm I carried by. said shaft will be swung rearward, and,

' through the medium of the link Q and arm R, will turn the shaft K" rearward and swing the stops J into line withtlu or contact surface 4 on the cmitact which corresponds to the operated tabulator key, with the result that the paper-carriage, as it moves toward the left, will be arrested in position for the printing to be effected in the corresponding; denominational column.

The cams O are so shaped tl'iat-aftcr they have swung the wing N forward the proper distance they will pass undeixits lower edge but still remain. in engagement with it and prevent its return in advance of the key-let er.

.In this manner the tabulatorkey-let ers. are

caused to impart thenecessary movement toitheparts to properly set thestops J. at

enough. to release the paper-carriage and apply the brake spring to the spring casing P, as before exp ained. The stops J are thus set or ad'usted before the paper-can riage is released and permitted to move, and are maintained in adjusted position until the carriage is released and completes its movement and is arrested by one of the stops, whereupon,- on the release of the o erated. tabulator key, the rock shaft K wil be re turned'to normal position by the action of the spring K applied to its right hand end, Fig. 1, and the stops J be carried back out of the path of' travel of the contact piece I upon the paper-carriage.

Instead of'employing a series of tabulator keys and connections for setting-the stops 1],

other means for turning the rock shaft K. I

may be substituted and many of the advantages of my invention retained. Likewlse,

even where the tabulator keys are employed departing from the broader scope of my invention.

As will be understood from the foregoing the turning of the rock-shaft K under the operations of the dillerent tabulator keys. serves to determine the denominational position of the stops J, while thezuljustmcnt of said stops longitudinally of the rock shaft The stops J may be of any suitable form to cooperate 'withthe graduated contact piece I, i

and may be adjusted. longitudinally. of the rock shaft K and secured in adjusted posi- Thus, each stop may consist of a simple sleeve mounted to slide lengthwise upon the shaft and provided with a set screw for fastening-it thereto in adjusted. position, and with a projecting lug to cooperate with the contact piece. I". In the present instance, however, the stops which I have illustrated embody features of novelty both in respect to 'the method of adjusting" thein longitudinally upon the rockshaft and. seeming theinl in adjusted position thereon, and in respect to their cooperation with the }-)apercarriage, which features willnow be e. :plained."

The provision for adji'zsting the stops. and securing them in adjusted. position may be explained and illustrated. independently;of their-other features of novelty, as by'reference tofFigs. 2,. 5, (i, 7, and 8, where it will be seen that the rock shaft K upon whichthe stops are mounted is provided upon-its rear,

side with a longitudinal groove o whose throughit and projecting aces inner end:

'. into the groove (1 in the rock shaft, Figs. 6

such shoulder, however, the stop lug will be retarded byothe friction between itself and the shoulder upon the contact piece-with which it, has been engaged, with the result that the stop plate 0 carrying such lugwill be swung upon its pivot on the disk B from the positionshown in Fig. 8 to that shown in Fig. 10 and the lug J. be thereby carried within the periphery of the disk B. To' facilitate and insure this operation of the parts the side of the lug J facing the contact piece I is beveled as shown in Fig. 9 and the cooperating faces of the shoulders at upon the contact piece are correspondingly beveled, so that after a given shoulder has come in contact with one of the stop lugs and arrested the paper-carriage, and is being pressed against the lug by the force of the spring tending to move the paper-carriage still further toward the left, as in Fig. 9, the beveled surfaceupon the lugwill fit against the beveled surface upon the shoulder and materially increase the friction necessary to be overcome in moving the lug upward and disengaging it from the shoulder at the return movement of the rock shaft consequent upon the release of the t'abu'lator key.

A curved'wire spring 9 confined in a recess provided for it between the disk B and .the plate C, Fig. 10, and connected at one end to said disk and at its opposite end to said plate exerts a pressure upon said late tending .to

swing it. from the position s iown in Figs. 3 and 8 to its opposite position shown in Fig. 10, the plate C being normally restrained from such movement and vieldingly held in the position of Figs. 2 and 8 by a s )ring plunger h confined in a bore in the isk B and pressed by a coiled spring '5 into engagement with a recess j in thesurfaceof the plate C,

a Fig. 12. When the plate 0 has been swung far enough from the positions of Figs. 3, 8

and 12 toward the position of Fig. 10 to disen 'a e its recess from the end of the s )rin plunger 71." the spring 9 will carry the plate onward to theposition of Fig. 10 and engage its recess 71' with the plunger has in Fig. l1, which latter will then serve to yieldingly hold the plate in the position of Fig. 10 until it is swung back to the position of Figs. 2, 8 and 12, audits recess .j recngaged with the plunger h to yieldingly hold it in that position, as hereafter explained.

The purpose of the movable stop plates C carrying the stop lugs J, as distinguished from a stop lug projectingrigidl from the disk B or sleeve A, is to cause ti .o stop lug to be carried entirely out of the path of the ti'on of a, .tabulator ke If a rigid stop, such as a lug PIOJGCiJDg (u'cctly from the sleeve upon the rock shaft, be employed, it is necessary, after the arrest of the paper-carriage by any particular stop,.that the contact piece again at the operation of the next .tabu ator key, andlthe papercarriage be thereby prevented from advancingto the next succeed ing stop. By roviding the movable stops described, which are thrown out of operative position immediately after the arrest of the paper-carriage by them, it is not necessary to pay any attention to the movement of the paper-carriage prior to operating another tabulator key, since by operating several tabulator keys immediatelyin succession the it, must be paper-carriage will be properly advanced to and arrested by the several stops in succession, so that in listing numbers in several parallel columns it is simply necessary, with the paper-carriage in right hand position, to press the proper tabulator key for the entry of the desired amount in the first column, then operate the proper type keys to print such amount in said column, then press the proper tabulator key for the entry of the desired amount in the next-column, and then operate the proper type keys to print such amount in such column; and so on, with all the parallel columns on the sheet of paper.

For the purpose of resetting all the stop plates C at each returnmovement of the paper-carriage to right hand position, and thereby throwing all of the stop lugs J outward beyond the peripheries of the disks B, into position to be swung into the path of travelof the graduated contact piece on the paper-carriage at the next operation of a tab ulator key, there is provided a wiper arm I) upon the papcrecarriage, in this instance se-' cured to the forward side of thegraduated contact piece I, which Wiper arm 1) at the return movement of the paper-carriage to right hand position wipes over the lugs cpio jecting from. the forward sides .of the stop plates C and heretofore referred to, and swings all of-said stop plates, upon their pivotal sup orts upon the disks B, from the position of Fig. 10 back to normal position, Fig. 2, so that when a tabulator key is then depressed and the shaft K 'therebyrocke'd all. of the stop lugs J will be swung downward in to the path-oftrav of the graduated contact piece I" upon t c.
