In an electrically controlled typewriter, a printer or the like it is provided that for the read-out of a magnetic coding on a rotationally driven part a sensor emits output signals in reference to a changing magnetic field. Preferably the sensor is in the form of a pulse wire. A ribbon cassette for such a typewriter is distinguished by the disposition of at least one magnet on a rotationally driven part Advantageously this is a Wiegand wire. A type wheel can be coded in a corresponding manner.

A typewriter or similar machine with a ribbon and, if required, a correction tape on a pivotable support which can be lifted or lowered, the ribbon or the correction tape being movable in steps. The pivoting of the ribbon is necessary in order to give a view of the typed text. Since it is selectively possible to type or to correct, it is necessary to lift the support for the ribbon or the correction tape to different levels, so that the particular ribbon required is opposite the line to be printed. The transport of the ribbons as well as the lifting of the support is performed by means of a reciprocation-rotation motor. The respective rotational movement of the reciprocation-rotation motor is preferably transferred to one of the ribbons by toothed wheels. The ribbon can be moved on far enough so that a fresh ribbon surface is available. The same can be done for the correction tape. Depending on whether typing or correction is to take place, the support is pivoted by a set angular amount by means of the displaceable motor shaft, so that either the ribbon or the correction ribbon are at the level of the line to be printed. A simple construction with only a few components is assured by this design. Overriding clutches assure that, depending on the rotational direction of the motor, only one of the other of the ribbons is transported.

A method of producing platens for typewriters and similar office equipment. Conventional platens often include a large number of individual parts and are relatively expensive because of their high assembly and finishing costs. According to the invention, an impact-resistant polyolefin with the addition of a delayed-reacting foaming agent is employed in an injection molding process in such a fashion that, by means of differential cooling of the mold, the material on the platen surface and in areas of other functional elements such as line-advance wheel/notched wheel combinations hardens, while the core of the platen remains a foam. The process allows platens with other functional elements molded to them to be manufactured from a single material in a single operation and without any additional work, despite different demands made on the print backing and the other functional elements.

The present invention relates to a drive element of typewriters or similar office machines where the movement of the platen is derived from the movement of the carriage. In the past numerous drive elements have been required in devices of this type, which required a considerable assembly effort and bearing effort. In contrast hereto the drive element proposed is formed in one piece as a one-armed lever which is rotatably disposed coaxially with the platen and with the line space wheel disposed thereon and which has at least one ratchet which is in operative contact with the line space wheel. A displacement element disposed on the carriage of the machine comes into operative contact with the one-armed lever within a set movement range of the carriage and pivots it, so that the turning of the platen takes place by means of the ratchet.

A typewriter or similar machine having a platen turnable by means of a ratchet and a line spacing wheel and a carriage movable along the platen by means of a pulling means, on which a typing element or push button is disposed. In accordance with the invention a so-called lift-rotation motor is used for turning the platen, for line spacing and for moving the carriage. Its turning movement is transferred to the carriage by a pulling means. The axial movement of the motors causes the pivoting of a ratchet support on which the spacing ratchet is disposed which turns the platen by means of a toothed spacing wheel. In this way no additional motor for one of the two functions is required. The lift and rotary movement of the motor can take place temporally superimposed. In this way no time delays occur in the course of operation of the typewriter or of a printer.

A typewriter or similar machine with a print wheel disposed on a shaft drivable by a motor, the characters of which are printed by means of a hammer. In accordance with the invention, use of a separate print magnet is to be omitted. This is made possible by the use of a lift-rotation motor. Its rotational movement is used for the rotational positioning of the print wheel, while the axial movement of the motor shaft is transferred to a print hammer pivotably disposed on the carriage. Determination of the engagement point of the motor shaft with the print hammer makes possible the optimum determination of the movement cycle of the print hammer as well as its print force. Thus the space above the motor for the print wheel, otherwise required for a print magnet, can be used for other purposes. Additionally there is a reduction of the masses which are required to be moved along the platen.

In an electronically controlled typewriter, a printer or the like with an exchangeable ribbon cassette, which is provided with identifying codings and where the ribbon cassette is pivotable between a lowered position of rest and an elevated printing or operating position around the cassette base facing away from the printing area, it is provided in order to attain a simple and dependably readable coding which can discriminate between a plurality of different types of ribbon cassettes, that at a defined radial distance from the base of the ribbon cassette, which is to be inserted, a sensor is disposed at the side of the pivot path of the same, which gives off an electrical output signal in reference to a changing magnetic field. It is provided in a ribbon cassette for such a typewriter or such a printer to dispose at least one bistable magnetic element on a lateral surface of the ribbon cassette.

A keyboard for typewriters or similar machines has a key support, switching contacts and key push rods, each of which is acted upon by a spring. The design of the few individual parts assures their simple manufacture (extruded parts and a stamped part) as well as an assembly just as simple and therefore automated, and, if desired, even without screws or aids of that type. Activation of the individual keys takes place with satisfactory tactile feedback and without undesireable vibrations.
摘要:
A cassette-type ink ribbon device for a printer wherein the inked ribbon is carried in a throw-away magazine operatively disposed within and wholly independent of the cassette body. The cassette body carries all of the drive components and, hence, replacement of the magazine revitalizes the cassette at minimum expense.

The plug connection device for mechanical and electrical plug connection of one electronic unit having a first housing (1) with another electronic unit having a second housing (2) includes an electronic plug (5) in the one unit and a socket (6) for the plug (5) in the other unit, and a mechanical locking device separate from the electronic plug (5) in the one unit. The mechanical locking device includes an operating rod or bar (7,7') slidable parallel to a wall of the one unit; at least two plate-like lock studs (10) extending inclined to the wall of the one unit and correspondingly inclined running surfaces (15) bounding lock stud recesses (13) provided in the rear wall of the other electronic unit. After the units are pushed together, the plate-like lock studs (10) are slidable by sliding the operating rod or bar substantially parallel to the wall of the one unit, so that the lock studs (10) engage in the lock stud recesses (13) of the other electronic unit (2) interiorly of running surfaces (15) provided in the second electronic unit (2), the lock studs (10) contacting and running on the running surfaces (15) during electrical connection of the plug and socket.
