Title: Cassette
IPC: G03B27/58
Filed: 1967-07-24
Abstract: 1,192,051. Film cartridges. ITEK CORP. July 24, 1967 [Aug.4, 1966], No.33955/67. Heading G2A. A film cartridge 1 has hollow hub portions 2, 3 seated in supporting nests 4,6. A cylindrical core 7 carrying a roll 8 of photo-sensitive film rests with its ends in the hub portions 2,3. The film passes out through a light-tight orifice 9, and passes across a bearing surface 11. This is spring-biased against a soft rubber roller 12, the action of which draws the film from the cartridge. The roller is not part of the cartridge, but mounted on the photocopy machine to which the cartridge is attached. Seating members 13,14 at each end of the cartridge are pivoted to a bar 16, and when in the vertical position hold the cartridge in place. To remove the cartridge, members 13,14 are swung away in the direction of arrow 24. The wall 29 of hub portion 2 is flexible, and when the seating members are vertical, a pressure plate 28 attached to member 14 presses wall 29 firmly against the end of core 7. This causes the opposite end of core 7 to be pressed flush against a positioning plate 31 forming part of nest 4. The cartridge is contemplated as being of the type containing hundreds of feet of film having widths of nine inches or more, and weighing about 10 lbs. As the film is used, and the weight of the cartridge becomes less, this does not affect the force between driving roller 12 and bearing surface 11, since the weight is balanced about the central axis 36.

Abstract: 417,632. Apparatus for compiling statistics. ADREMA MASCHINEN-BAUGES., 62, Alt Moabit, Berlin. Dec. 6, 1933, No. 34287. Convention date, Dec. 6, 1932. [Class 106 (i).] In electromagnetic selection mechanism for addressing-machines of the kind wherein tabs &c. on the printing plates or stencils operate a number of switches, the switches not only control the electromagnet controlling the printing operation but control also electrical counting-mechanisms whereby the number of plates in any group or combination of groups may be counted. In the diagram shown, three parallel circuits are associated with each of a number of control positions 1-5, the circuits comprising (1) a control switch 1a, a terminal 1b, a relay R1, and a machine switch K1; (2) a hand switch 1s, a switch 1<1>s, and contacts 1d, 1c; (3) a hand switch 1z, a counter Z1, and a switch 1<1>z. The printing operation is controlled by a magnet M in series with a switch X, a machine switch K2, and contacts P, and the switch X is controlled by a magnet R in series with contacts N. Alternating current may be supplied throughout from a supply U, but the counting circuits preferably have a separate continuous supply from a battery St. When the plates to be selected are those having, say, either or both of the signals 4, 5 with the exception of those having, say, the signal 2, the terminals of 2, 4 and 5 are connected by leads to positive terminals A, 2c is connected to N, 4c and 5c are connected to P, and the switches 2s, 4s and 5s are closed. The magnet M is energized whenever a printing-plate closes either or both of the switches 4a, 5a, except that if switch 2a is closed also, the magnet R is energized and opens the switch X after the switch K1 is closed, but before the switch K2 is closed, whereby the circuit of the magnet M remains open and no impression is printed. If, in addition, it is necessary to count separately the number of plates having the signal 2, the number having 4, and the number having 5, the switches 2z &c. are closed, whereby the magnets R2, R4, and R5 by closing the switches 2<1>z &c. complete the counter circuits. In the case of a selection comprising two or more signals in combination, say 1, 2, and 3, 1 is connected to A, 1b to 2, 2b to 3, and 3c to P, and the switches 3s and 3z are closed, such that the magnet M is energized whenever the combination is present and the number of plates bearing the combination is counted on the counter Z3. Where, however, separate counting is necessary, 1, 2 and 3 are connected to A, the switches 1s, 1z, 2z and 3z are closed, 1c is connected to 2d, 2c to 3d, and 3c to P. Counting may also be effected without printing, the appropriate contacts 1 &c. being connected to A and the corresponding counter switches 1z &c. being closed ; the counting may be either separate or combination.
