Patent GB-446754-A (GB)
Abstract: 446,754. Cash registers. NATIONAL CASH REGISTER CO., Dayton, Ohio, U.S.A. Nov. 5, 1934, No. 31718. Convention date, Nov. 4, 1933. [Class 100 (iv)] [See also Group XIX] Line-spacing mechanism.-In a cash register or similar accounting machine having a recordmaterial carriage manually adjustable to a predetermined primary position from which it may be line-spaced automatically by means of escapement pawls during an immediately successive machine operation or operations, the adjustment of the total-taking control lever to condition the machine for a total or subtotaltaking operation disables the pawls to permit the carriage to return to home position prior to such operation. The invention is described as applied to a machine of the kind disclosed in Specifications 8119/15, 209,408, [both in Class 106 (i)], and 442,771. The carriage 11, Fig. 1, for the record material is moved manually to printing position under the control of keys 14. During the first operation, the depressed key is released and the carriage subsequently controlled by pawls 16, 23, pivoted respectively on a fixed stud 17 and on a plate 20 rockable about the stud. The pawls co-operate with a rack 15 on the underside of the carriage and, upon the rocking of the plate 20 during each machine operation, acts as an escapement to permit the carriage to be returned step-by-step by a spring 150 for line-spacing. Upon the adjustment of the usual control lever to total or subtotal-taking position, the escapement mechanism is disabled and permits the carriage to return to home position in readiness for the total to be printed on the last line of the sheet. For this purpose, the control lever is connected to a cam 35 that, when the lever is moved out of " add " position, acts through arms 38, 40 and link 41 to shift a slide 43 to the right as shown in Fig. 2. A nose 46 on the slide cooperates with a pin 47 on the pawl 16 which is thus drawn out of engagement with the rack to allow the carriage to return to home position under the action of its spring 150.

As each element is set it pulses its lead, such as +S1, +ST for the pair 101, 102. The counter is arranged on a ring basis with seven elements set at any one time, a count of 1 being represented by all the even-numbered elements 102-114 being set and a count of 8 by all the odd numbered elements 101-113 being set, the drive being from oscillator 115 through singleshot drivers 116,117,118. Abnormal conditions. A momentary failure to step the circuit is permitted but resetting of a pair due to a spurious pulse can be corrected. Thus at a count of 8, when clock positions 1 and 7 are on, AND gate 133 operates through 136 and 138 to ensure that clock positions 2-6 are also on. An oscillator 145 has a period exceeding two cycles of the counter. Initially 145 applies -S to switch check trigger 119 on. At a count of 14 when clock position 7 goes off, check trigger 119 also goes off. During the next half-cycle of 145 potential +S is applied to AND 148 which responds only if the counter has failed so that check trigger 119 is still on. In this case alarm lamp 151 lights.

Abstract: 1332182 Continuous winding apparatus MASCHINENFABRIK RIETER AG 1 Oct 1970 [3 Oct 1969] 46693/70 Heading D1J The invention relates to a method of automatically replacing a full bobbin tube 20 by an empty bobbin tube 20' by means of an apparatus having a single drive drum 34, and a pair of separate tube carrying mandrels mounted on an arm 9 that is rotatable about an axis 5. The axis 5 is carried by a platform 4 sliding on rails 1, 2. As the package 21 grows in size the arm 9 is held against rotation by an arresting pin 10, Fig. 1, but is guided by rails 1, 2 so as to move in the direction of the arrow in Fig. 7, such movement being made against the resistance of a disc 33 in an oil filled cylinder 29. When the package 21 reaches a predetermined size the resultant displacement of the platform 4 along the rails 1, 2 closes a switch that retracts the pin 10 to permit the arm 9 to rotate. At the same time pneumatic pressure is applied to a cylinder 28 to cause the platform 4, and hence the axis 5, to move back towards the drive drum 34. The pressure of the full package 21 against the drive drum 34 causes the arm 9 to rotate until both the full package 21 and the empty bobbin tube 20' are jointly in engagement with the drive drum 34 as shown in Fig. 7.  The rotation of the arm 9 is braked by means of an arm 14, rigid with the arm 9, rubbing against a dampening lever 15 coupled to a dampening cylinder 17. Prior to the empty tube 20' contacting the drive drum 34, a cam (25) Fig. 2 (not shown) displaces the empty tube 20' and its mandrel axially towards the viewer in Fig. 1. so as to cause the empty tube 20' to be in a position for driving engagement with a ring (37) Fig. 2 at one end of the drive drum 34. The ring (37) is of larger diameter than the remainder of the drum 34. The ring (37) causes the empty tube 20' to accelerate to a circumferential speed that exceeds the speed of take-up of the package 21 by 1 to 3 per cent. Timing relays then operate a piston rod 12 to cause a rack 7 to rotate axis 5 through a free-wheel clutch and therewith the arm 9. This causes the full package 21 to be lifted off the drive drum and the empty tube 20' to move over the face of the drive drum. Inertia keeps the full package rotating for a while. Thread severence. A rod 40 then moves the thread approaching the traversing means 36 away from the viewer in Fig. 1 until the thread engages in a notch 38 in a rod (39). The cam (25) now moves the empty tube 20' and its mandrel axially away from the viewer in Fig. 1 and causes teeth (56) on said mandrel to snag the thread and sever it on an edge 57 of the teeth. Continued axial movement of the empty tube 20' causes a few reserve wraps to be placed on the tube 20' until a normal operating position is reached. The thread is then caused to automatically leave the notch 38 and revert to the yarn traverser 36.
