Abstract

994,159. Selective printing. POTTER INSTRUMENT CO. Inc. June 20, 1962 [June 22, 1961], No. 23752/62. Heading B6F. Hammer - impression mechanisms.-An electromagnetically-operated hammer 25 is slidably mounted on rods 30, 31 and moved in letter-space direction by a belt 36 driven by pinch roller 39 and capstan 38. The traverse of the hammer assembly is stopped at each printing position by an electrically-operated brake 41- 43 under the control of electrical circuits and signals generated by a transducer carried on the moving hammer frame 26 in conjunction with teeth 35 arranged at letter-space intervals. The belt 36 is driven by further rollers to return the hammer to the beginning of a line. Continuously - rotating type - drum.-As shown in Fig. 1, the hammer-mechanism travels across the columns of type on a continuously rotating drum driven by a motor 9. One complete revolution is made for each hammer position and firing operation to print the required character is determined by a coded disc 10, brushes 13, 14, 17, 18, 19 and logical circuits connected over leads 15, 15, 21, 22, 23. If the characters are staggered on the type-drum the hammer mechanisn may move two or more letter-spaces. Type arranged on an endless band.-As shown in Fig. 2, the type may be arranged on a band 47 with similar control disc and brushes. Control by pulses.-The printers may operate in connection with electronic computors. Specification 994,158 is referred to.
