REGORD-IROLL FOR AUTOGRAPI-IIC REGISTERS.

Application filed October 21, 1911.

To all whom it may concern Be it known that I, HARRY KONERMAN, a citizen of the United States of America, and resident of Newport, county of Campbell, and State of Kentucky,'have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Record-Rolls for Autographic Registers, of which the following is a specification.

My invention relates to rolls upon which a record sheet is wound, such as the record rolls of autographic registers.

The object of my invention is a recor roll with which the paper may be engaged readily, and from which the record roll of paper may be removed readily. This object is attained by the means described in the specification, and illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which:

Figure 1 is a perspective view of a record roll embodying my invention, a part of the pinion at the end of the roll being broken away, to disclose the end of the eccentric bar which engages the paper, and the full line showing the bar in the position it occupies when the roll is being removed from a roll of paper, and the dotted lines showing it in the position it occupies when in engagement with the paper. Fig. 2 is an end elevation of therecord roll with a roll of paper thereon, showing the bar in the position it occupies when in engagement with the paper. Fig. 3 is a view similar to Fig. 2, but showing the bar in the position occupied by it when removing the record roll from the roll of paper. Fig. 4 is a perspective view of an autographic register, showing a part of the side thereof broken out to expose the record roll.

Referring to the parts: The record roll A is in the usual cylindrical form and has the usual central journal pins a (4. Upon the end of the roll at which the pinion B is secured, the roll A has a radial recess a Mounted eccentrically upon the roll A is a bar D, which is adapted to engage the paper. The bar D has at itsends arms d d, which are journaled upon pivots (Z which are mounted eccentrically in the ends of the roll. The arms (Z d are of a length somewhat greater than the distance of the pivots d from the circumference of the end of the Copies of this patent may be obtained for five cents each, by addressing the Washington, D. G.

rolls, so that the bar D is capable of a limited rotation about its pivots 411 Upon the bar D are formed teeth (Z which project from the bar in the direction in which the roll is to be rotated when paper is being fed thereon. The record roll is mounted removably in the casing E of the register in a well-known manner, which need not be specifically described.

To engage the paper with the roll, it is held in contact with the teeth (Z A rotation being imparted to the roll to feed the paper thereon, will cause the teeth to pierce the paper and hold it from slipping in relation to the roll, so that the rotation thereof will cause the paper to accumulate in a roll upon the record roll. When it is desired to remove the paper from the record roll, the record roll containing the roll of paper is removed from the casing. Then a rotation being imparted to the record roll, in a direction opposite to that which it received when the paper was being fed thereon, the teeth (Z will disengage from the paper, and the record roll may be drawn from the roll of paper by a pull in the direction of the axis of the roll.

WVhat I claim is:

1. In a device of the character described, the combination of a record roll, a rod adjacent to the periphery of the roll and having teeth upon one of its edges and having downturned ends adjacent to the ends of the roll, and pivots passing through said downturned ends and eccentrically into the ends of the rolls.

2. A record roll for autographic registers comprising a roll and a bar having down turned ends adjacent to the ends of the roll, the bar being pivoted at its ends on the ends of the roll eccentrically with relation to the center of the roll and having teeth projecting in the direction of rotation and adapted to point outwardly from the surface of the roll when winding a sheet on the roll and to approach the surface of the roll when removing the rolled sheet from the roll.
