    Abstract: An improved numeracy and place-value educational device which accurately displays a range of both whole-number and decimal place-value properties. A conventional counting-wheel odometer comprising a plurality of sequentially numbered counting wheels (10a-10f) and motion transfer components (not shown) is supported by a frame (12). A decimal carrier (20) moves laterally across a portion of the frame (16). The lateral movement allows a decimal point (20′) to precede or follow any numeral in a specific row displayed by the counting wheels (10a-10f). A place value band (18) displays place value names (19a-19f). Its movement, in unison with the decimal carrier (20) and a moveable comma (241, maintains the correct orientation of place-value names (19a-19f) in relation to the decimal point (20′) in unalterable fashion. Force is applied to the motion transfer components which selectively rotate the counting wheels (10a-10f). A sequential, dynamic display of both whole-number and decimal place-value names, notations, and properties is presented consistently, accurately, and objectively.

    Abstract translation: 一个改进的算术和地方价值教育设备,准确显示全数字和小数位值属性的范围。 包括多个顺序编号的计数轮(10a-10f)和运动传递部件(未示出)的常规计数轮里程计由框架(12)支撑。 十进制载体(20)横向移动跨过框架(16)的一部分。 横向运动允许小数点(20')在由计数轮(10a-10f)显示的特定行中的任何数字之前或之后。 位置值带(18)显示位置值名称(19a-19f)。 它的运动与十进制载体(20)和可移动的逗号(24')一致保持相对于小数点(20')的位置值名称(19a-19f)的正确方向。 将力施加到选择性地旋转计数轮(10a-10f)的运动传递部件。 一贯,准确,客观地呈现了全数字和小数位值属性的顺序动态显示。
