The present invention relates to a tab setting device for stopping a carriage of a typewriter at a desired position. This tab setting device includes an unusual-shape hole formed in a frame of the typewriter in which a tab bracket can rock. In this unusual-shape hole, two pairs of projections for supporting the tab bracket are formed on the bottom surface, one pair of the projections serve as fulcrums for rocking of the tab bracket when a tab pin or pins are tab-set, while the other pair of the projections serve as fulcrums for rocking of the tab bracket when a tab pin or pins are cleared.

A ribbon-feed and motion-reversal device for typewriters and the like comprises an oscillating supporting plate on which a cartridge with the spools carrying the inked ribbon is placed, the supporting plate being coupled to a driving lever driven by a cam mounted on the driving shaft of the typewriter, and suitable to transmit the winding action directly to either one of the ribbon-carrying spools of the cartridge. A balance lever is driven by the ribbon at the end of its unwinding, through oscillating wings on the cartridge.

A feed roller device of a typewriter used for reliably urging a sheet of paper to be printed against a platen. In this feed roller device, a pair of feed roller assemblies are parallelly arranged in parallel to the axial line of the platen and rocking levers are provided at the central positions in the axial lines of the feed roller assemblies, respectively. Each of these two rocking levers is rockingly supported by a typewriter frame, pivotally supported at one end thereof by a connecting rod of one of the feed roller assemblies and provided at the other end thereof with a spring, which urges the feed roller assembly against the platen by the urging force thereof. Consequently, only two springs are used, so that the adjustment of the feed roller assemblies urging the platen in urging force can be facilitated.

This invention is a platen knob device in a typewriter for releasing a platen of the typewriter from a platen pitch feed mechanism and changing the platen over to a continuous feed. This platen knob device includes a platen variable fixed onto a platen shaft and a platen driver operative in association with the platen pitch feed mechanism and slidably provided on the platen shaft. The platen driver is urged by the platen variable through a spring, whereby the platen driver and the platen variable are engaged with each other, in which condition, if the platen knob is rotated, then the platen is changed over to the pitch feed. If the platen knob is urged in a direction opposite to the direction in which the platen knob is urged by the spring, then the platen driver is urged against an end face of a cylindrical portion of the platen knob to move in the axial direction thereof and separated from the platen variable to change the platen over to the continuous feed.

The compact high-ratio speed reducer without play consists of an external housing in which a first shaft is rotatingly arranged, carrying a planetary element on which a first gear is loosely supported, this gear having two toothings, one of which is in engagement with a crown wheel integral with the external housing and coaxial with the first shaft, and the second is in engagement with a further gear, integral with a second shaft supported within the external housing and coaxial with the first shaft. The gear toothings are urged together to eliminate possible play between the toothings in mutual engagement.
