  • FIG.3 A58 INVENTORS WILLIAM C. PRESTON JOSEPH F. CATTORINI 8 FRED H. CHABOTY THEIR ATTORNEY May 10, 1960 w. c. PRESTON ET AL 2,935,935
  • This invention relates to improvements in printing mechanisms of the type disclosed in the co-pending application of Paul H. Williams et 211., Serial No. 743,842, filed June 23, 1958. More particularly, the invention'is applied to a type of machine wherein printing means are used for printing off a special ribbon containing magnetic ink, whereby data can be printed on record material which is later adapted to control a magnetic pick-up device to read data from the record material.
  • the printing apparatus of the above-cited application provides a self-contained printing mechanism which 'is' controlled from the differential mechanism of a machine of the type shown and described in United States Patents No. 1,865,147, issued to Bernis M. Shipley on June 28, 1932, and No. 2,625,322, issued to Frank B. Moser on January 13, 1953, and which type is controlled by electric circuits set in the machine of said patents.
  • the printing means as disclosed in the above-cited application comprises a series of printing platens, each platen being activated by the blow of a hammer. Movement of the platen engages the record material, impinging said record material onto a printing ribbon and a type wheel.
  • Spring means are used to exert a uniform pressure on the hammers. Because of the physical characteristics of the various character types, it has been found that the pressure exerted by the platens will be suificient for the printing of some of the characters, but such pressure will be insufficient or too great for the printing of other characters. Thus the type characters such as 0, 6, 8, 9 have large surface area as compared to 2, 5, 7.
  • a hammer pressure to adequately print from those types having a large surface area will be too great for the types having small surface area, with the result that such small-area types will be driven through the record material.
  • a hammer pressure which is suflicient'to print from the small-area types Will beinsufficient to obtain a print from the large-area types. Therefore it is an object of the present invention to provide a series of printing hammers each capable of delivering a different pressure, depending on the configuration of the type with which it is associated.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide control means for controlling the pressure that is applied to each of the printing hammers.
  • a further object of the invention is to provide the type configuration, when positioned for a printing operation, to control the amount of pressure that is applied to its associated printing hammer.
  • Fig. 1 is a section view taken through the printing sections of the printing mechanism.
  • FIG. 2 is a detail view of the printing platen mechanism.
  • Fig. 3 is an end view of certain of the mechanisms shown in Fig. l.
  • Fig. 4 is a detail view of the machine release mechanism.
  • Fig. 5 is a sectional view taken through the mechanism for controlling the setting of the printing wheels.
  • Fig. 6 is a detail view of a means for locking out the symbol-printing type carrier during certain operations of the machine.
  • the printing mechanism in which this invention is utilized is adapted for use in connection with machines of the type shown in the patents cited previously.
  • Such machines are usually provided with a differential mechanism through which an indicator segment is positioned according to the amount key which has been depressed on the accounting machine keyboard prior to the machine operation.
  • a differential mechanism through which an indicator segment is positioned according to the amount key which has been depressed on the accounting machine keyboard prior to the machine operation.
  • rotation of the indicator segment positions the arm of an amount difierential switch a like distance.
  • These amount difierential switches control the setting of corresponding data in the printing mechanism in a manner to berdescribed hereinafter.
  • the printer is operated by a motor 35 (Figs.
  • the motor 35 is provided with an armature 36, on which is mounted a pulley 37 (Fig. 4).
  • the pulley 37 operates a second pulley 33, by a belt 39.
  • a gear 41. Secured to the pulley 38, and mounted on a shaft 40, is a gear 41..
  • the gear 41 meshes wtih a gear 42 connected to a pinion 43 mounted on a stud 44.
  • the pinion 43 meshes with a gear 45 rotatably mounted on a stud 46, and connected to the gear 45 is a pinion 47.
  • the pinion 47 meshes with a gear 48, to which one member 49 of a clutch is secured.
  • the solenoid 50 when the solenoid 50 is energized to rock the pawl 52 clockwise, it withdraws the lower end of the pawl 52 from engagement with the toe on the pawl 53, whereupon the spring 54 rocks the pawl 53 clockwise to engage one of the shoulders on the clutch member 49, in the manner well known in the art.
  • the pawl 53 is pivotally mounted on a disk 55, secured to the printer cam shaft 56 (see also Fig. 5).
  • a spring 57 At the end of the cycle of operation, a spring 57 (Figs. 4 and 5) returns the clutch pawl 52 into the path of the toe on the pawl 53, and, therefore, when the toe comes into engagement with the lower end of the pawl 52, it is rocked out of engagement with the clutch member 49.
  • T ype-wheel-setting mechanism The machine is provided with a plurality oftype wheels 60 carried on a shaft 61 (Figs. 1, 2, and 6). Each type wheel 60 meshes with a gear 62 (Fig. 1), having as shown in the United States patent to Walter J. Kreider,
  • the gears 62 are rotatably mounted on disks 64 carried on a shaft 65.
  • the square shafts and the shaft 65 are supported between a right side frame 70 and a left frame 71 (Fig; 3), and these shafts project through two other side frames (not shown).
  • Each ring gear 62 is connected to a ringe gear 75 (Fig. through the square shaft 63.
  • the ring gears 75 are located between two side frames (not shown) and mesh with a differentially settable disk 76.
  • the dilferentially settable disk 76 is provided with a stud 77, on which a latch pawl 78 is pivoted.
  • the latch pawl is provided with a stud 79, which projects into a notch in a driving segment 80.
  • a driving segment 80 is provided for each type-wheel-setting mecha nism, and the driving segments are all pinned to a shaft 81, on which the differential disks 76 are rotatably mounted.
  • Also secured to the shaft 81 is a segment 82, meshing with a segment 83 pivoted on a shaft carried between two side frames (not shown).
  • the segment 83 is provided with two anti-friction rollers 85, which engage with cam plates 86 on the cam shaft 56.
  • a pawl 87 or 88 in a manner described hereinafter.
  • the pawls 87 and 88 are moved into the path of movement of shoulders 94 at a proper time, as will be described, and arrest the differential disk 76, thus causing the latch pawl 78 to rock counter-clockwise on the stud 77 and move a stud 89 thereon into a notch 90 of an alining and locking bar 91, carried on a pair of rods 92.
  • the pawls 87 and 88 are moved into the path of movement of the shoulders 94,. on the dilferentially settable disk 76, under control of the amount differential switches (not shown) of the accounting machine, as previously noted.
  • the differentially settable disk 76 When the differentially settable disk 76 is actuated, it will actuate the gear 75 a like extent and, through the square shaft 63 and the ring gear 62 (Fig. I), adjust the type wheel 60 in accordance with the setting of the differential settable disk 76.
  • a differentially settable mechanism is provided for setting each type wheel 60.
  • the pawl 87 (Fig. 5) is pivotally mounted on a stud and is spring-urged, by a spring 96, to urge the free end of the pawl 87 into the path of movement of the shoulders 94 on the differentially settable disk 76.
  • the spring 96 cannot rock the pawl 87, inasmuch as the pawl is restrained by the armature 97 of the solenoid 98, which engages a shoulder on the pawl 87.
  • the solenoid is energized according to the setting of the amount differential switches (not shown), the armature 97 is withdrawn, thus releasing the pawl 87 to the action of the spring 96.
  • the pawl 88 is mounted on a stud 100 and is controlled by the armature 101 of a solenoid 102.
  • the solenoid 98 is energized under control of the evennumbered digit keys-of the accounting machine, whereas the solenoid 102 is energized under control of the odd numbered digit keys.
  • the purpose of providing the two pawls 87 and 88, for arresting the differentials 76, is to provide more time for permitting the pawl 87 or 88 to drop into position in the path of movement of the shoulders 94. By providing separate pawls for the even and odd numbers, a greater spacing of the shoulders 94 on the differentially settable member 76 is possible.
  • the ring gear 62 is also alined in a set position by an aliner 108 (Fig. 1), pivoted on a stud 109.
  • the aliner 108 is provided with a roller 110, which is impinged between a spring-actuated arm 111 and an arm 112 by a spring 113.
  • Both arms 111 and 112 are pivoted on a shaft 114.
  • the lower end 165 of the arm 112 has pivoted thereto a link 170. This link is in turn pivoted to a cam arm 106, having rollers which coact with cam plates 103.
  • Printing mechanism After the type wheels 60 have been properly set and alined, the printing mechanism is actuated to impinge a tape against the record, upon which the printing is to take place, and the type wheels.
  • One form of tape used in the printing mechanism is shown and described in the co-pending application, Serial No. 733,141, filed by Theodore Maierson et al. on May 5, 1958.
  • the tape shown in said application is one in which magnetic material in a binder is applied in a stippling manner to a thin backing web made of strong film material, such as Mylar, which is a polyethylene terephthalate, of a thickness of approximately .0005 inch, and the coating has a profusion of closely-spaced specks of ink caused by the stippling, which specks are practically invisible to the unaided eye because of their small dimensions and close proximity.
  • the magnetic coating in the binder is called magnetic ink for the purpose of this disclosure.
  • the tape is wound from a supply roll 116 (Fig. 1), carried by a stud 117, and is guided around a stud 118, through a slip table 119, over the type wheels 60, around the aforementioned shaft 104, over a rod 120, onto a rewind spool 121.
  • Means (not shown) are provided for rotating the rewind spool in a step-by-step manner.
  • the printing platen is so constructed that, as the platen strikes the ribbon and the type wheel, the platen is given a slight sidewise'movement to in effect rub the magnetic ink material onto the record material, by sliding it slightly across the face of the type character. Also, the platen is so constructed as to dwell on the type at the time of impact. This is necessary, inasmuch as an ordinary blow does not make uniform impressions of the magnetic material on the record material.
  • a separate platen 122 (Fig. 2) is provided for each type wheel. The platens 122 are slidably mounted in a frame 123, with a loose fit sufficient to allow the platen to move sidewise when striking the type wheel 60.
  • a shoulder 124 of the platen 122 is normally held in engagement with a bar 125 carried by a pair of arms 126.
  • a spring 127 holds the shoulder 124 against the bar 125.

  • the rod 132 extends into a bifurcated arm of a cam follower arm 133, pivoted on the shaft 107.
  • the upper end of the cam follower arm is provided with a roller 134, normally held in engagement with a cam 135 by a spring 136.
  • the cam 135 is secured to the cam shaft 56.
  • Also formed on the cam follower arm 133 is a flange 137, engaging the outer periphery of the cam 135 at certain times, in the'manner presently described.
  • each plate 129 is also provided with an upstanding arm 138, which is interconnected by a bail 139.
  • the bail 139 engages a series of arms 140, pivoted on shaft 141.
  • Loosely mounted on the shaft 141 is a hammer 142, one for each of the arms 140.
  • the hammers 142 are arranged side by side. -The upper end of the hammer 142 is enlarged to provide extra weight to give the hammer a needed mass, as hereinafter described.
  • the hammer 142 is provided with an insert 143, which is set in resilient material 144, such as rubber.
  • the pur pose of the rubber insert 144 is to provide an increase in contact time against the ribbon; that is, to increase the time during which pressure is exerted against the ribbon to obtain a better imprint from the magnetic ink. Tests have shown that a quick blow by the hammer does not transfer sufficient magnetic ink to obtain usable impressions.

  • Each ofone set of levers has an end 150, which is engaged by a related spring 151.
  • This set of levers is associated with a special symbol type configuration, hereinafter described, which requires a constant force to be applied to the printing hammer.
  • levers 147 This constant force is applied to these levers 147 by their related springs 151.
  • Each of the remaining levers 147 has an inclined end 152, having a surface which coacts with a stud 153, located on a related link 154.
  • One end 155 of each link 1S4 isengaged by a related spring 156.
  • These levers 147 are capable of providing a variable force, which is hereinafter described.
  • Both types of the springs 151 and 156 are connected to a bracket 157, mounted on a rod 158, supported between the plate 149 and the side frame 71.
  • the plate 149 is supported on the shaft 159, extending between the right support frame 70 and the left support frame 71 (Fig. 3).
  • the other end of the link 154 (Fig. 1) is pivotally mounted on an arm 160.

  • the other ends of the bell cranks engage a bail 169, as shown in Fig. 3.
  • Pivotal-1y mounted on the arm 1% (Fig. 'l) is the link 1'70, the upper end of which is pivotally mounted to the cam arm 106.
  • the cam arm 106 engages the cam plate 103 by means of the rollers 105, mounted on the cam arm.
  • the end 152 of the lever 147 is inclined to the direction in which the spring 156 is extended.
  • the action of the spring 156 is transmitted by the stud 153, located on the link 154, to the inclined end 152. Due to the inclination of the end 152, the spring 156, acting through the stud 153, together with the arm 152, constitutes a moment arm which rotates the lever 147 counterclockwise and urges the link 154 to move downwardly.
  • the downward movement of the link 154 rotates the arm 160 clockwise, bringing the projections 163 of the arm 160 into contact with one of the studs 164 located on the side of the ring gear 62.
  • the studs 164 are located on the side of the. ring gear 62, where each stud represents a different character on the type wheel. Positioning of the type wheel 60 by the ring gear 62 also positions one of the studs 164 in line 7 with the travel of the projection 163. As seen in Fig. l,
  • the studs are located at various radii of the ring gear 62, thereby controlling the length of travel of the projection 163. This length of travel will be transmitted through the link 154 to move the stud 153 a similar distance on the inclined face of the end 152. Movement of the stud 153 along the face of the inclined end 152 will vary the pressure acting on the lever 147, thereby controlling the force exerted on the platen by the hammer 142, as will be described hereinafter.
  • the lower end of the platen 122 is slightly beveled, as at 177 (Fig. 2), and, therefore, as the platen is engaged with the type, as described, the lower end of the platen is carnmed sidewise a slight extent, due to the action of the bevel 177 of the platen 122 on the type carrier 61 ⁇ and also due to the sliding fit of the platen in the frame 123.
  • This sidewise shifting causes a rubbing action on the printing ribbon, to rub the magnetic material onto the record material, which, taken with the dwell at the time of impact, causes a good print to be made on the record material.
  • the hammers 142 are restored to their normal position by a rod 178 (Figs. 1 and 6) carried on the upper end of a pair of arms 179 (Fig. 6) secured to the shaft 141.

  • Rotation of. the cam 188 when the cam shaft 56 is operated allows the cam arm 186 to rock clockwise, permitting the segments 181 and 183 to rock clockwise, which rocks the pinions 18f counter-clockwise to move the rod 17 8 counter-clockwise, thus permitting the hammer to operate in the manner described above.
  • the cam 138 reverses the move ment of the cam arm 1116.
  • the cam plate 103 is rotated to a position which rocks the cam arm 106 clockwise, thereby rotating the arm 165 clockwise by means of the link 179. Clockwise rotation of the arm 165' will rotate the bell crank 167 counterclockwise, which positions the bail 169 beneath the arms 16%.
