137 | . Independent actuator: |
This subclass is indented under subclass 133. Transfer mechanism wherein the complete rotation of a register-wheel sets a device into such a position that by a subsequent movement and by an independent actuating device it is caused to actuate one step the wheel of next higher order. | |
138 | .. Successive: |
This subclass is indented under subclass 137. Transfer mechanism wherein the independent actuating device moves successively from one order to another. | |
139R | . Intermediate pinion: |
This subclass is indented under subclass 133. Transfer devices comprising a pinion between each two register-wheels on a shaft parallel to that of said wheels, said pinion being actuated by the gear of one register-wheel and actuating the gear of the wheel of higher order, one of the gears or pinions of the set having a single tooth, so that the wheel of higher order is moved intermittently from one number to the next at each complete rotation of the wheel of lower order. | |
