摘要:
Apparatus comprising a continuous mixer adapted to receive dry and wet ingredients and a gas to provide a homogeneous output mix, a gamma ray density detector positioned to sense the density of the output mix from the mixer, valve means for controlling the flow of gas into the mixer, and servo means responsive to signals from the detector for automatically controlling the valve means to provide an output mix of substantially uniform density.
摘要:
An ink ribbon cartridge for a printer comprising a storage reel for an ink ribbon, a take-up reel for the ink ribbon, drive wheels for longitudinally advancing the ink ribbon from the storage reel to the take-up reel for printing on the ribbon, and a pulley or roller which rides on the cam and which is coupled to a further pulley or roller, these parts cooperating for transversely displacing the ribbon during its longitudinal advance to offset the area of the ribbon utilized in printing.

摘要:
Apparatus and method for use with a tape cartridge of a printer to determine halt of tape feed from a supply reel to a take-up reel of the cartridge comprising reflective and non-reflective portions on the supply reel rotating therewith and an assembly including a light source and a sensor fixed in position to face the supply reel to cooperate with the reflective and non-reflective portions without mechanical contact therewith for producing a train of successive electrical output pulses as the supply reel rotates. Upon cessation of the output pulses the tape feed is halted. The system also provides a mechanical locking device for effecting positive locking of the supply reel at the end of tape feed.
摘要:
A vibrating thermal printer transfers thermoplastic ink from a ribbon to a record medium by selectively heating resistive elements on a substrate of electrically conductive material. While the record medium and ribbon are passing the print head, the print head, by means of piezoelectric phenomenon, induces vibration in the head to facilitate the deposition of thermoplastic ink onto the paper. There is also shown the preheating of the ribbon to improve throughput.
