摘要:
In a differential lever actuator comprising transmission members (41, 42) for differentially transmitting oppositely sensed angular displacements from first and second weight points (P1, P3) of first and second lever members (31, 32) to first and second predetermined points (P2, P4) of a differential lever member (41), a distance between midpoints (S, T) between the first weight and predetermined points and between the second weight and predetermined points is kept constant irrespective of the angular displacements. Preferably, at least one transmission member should be perpendicular to a line passing through the related weight point and a fulcrum point (Q or R) of the associated one of the first and second lever members. When carried by the differential lever member for print of a dot, a rod should preferably have an axis passing through a point of intersection of the transmission members. Alternatively, the differential lever member should have a center of a rotational component of the distance (ST) at a point of percussion related to a reaction resulting from print of the dot. As a further alternative, at least one transmission member should be thicker than 0.05 times a length between the related weight and predetermined points.
摘要:
This invention relates to a selective printing mechanism. The printing apparatus includes several carrousels which are themselves mounted on a principal rotating plate. Each carrousel supports, in addition to rotating cylinders having printing characters, charactercarrying elements fixed with respect to the plate of the respective carrousel. The principal rotating plate carries also rotating printing cylinders and character-supporting elements fixed with respect to its plate. The rotating unit thus constituted can be disposed horizontally behind the paper and the whole of this unit and of a percussion element is displaceable horizontally at each stroke, in order to type a line of characters. This apparatus has particularly efficient application to the construction of a typewriter for printing in the Chinese or Japanese languages.
