    Abstract: A printer carrier for carrying both a selection motor and a carrier for print element and ribbon cartridges. The printer carrier is made up of a frame, adjustable rails, and a leadscrew follower, and is structured to be mounted on escapement rails. The adjustable rails are for accepting the selection motor and the carrier for print element and ribbon cartridges. Upon adjustment of the rails, the motor and cartridge carrier are oriented relative to a printer platen. The follower is for connecting the apparatus to a leadscrew for controlling escapement along the escapement rails.

    Abstract: An under-the-cover automatic font changing apparatus, for a daisy wheel printer utilizing a print element (2) housed in a cartridge (1) during printing, is adapted to exchange print elements in the cartridge. It includes an elongated and vertically oriented rack (91), a plurality of print element holding means (60) located along the rack, drive means, (73) and (98), for vertically elevating and lowering the rack in a single plane, and means for causing a selection motor drive hub included in the printer to be translated toward and away from the print element for a print element change. During printing, the drive hub is for rotating the print element housed in the cartridge. Cooperating with the apparatus is a carrier (90) positionable along and above the rack and carrying the cartridge. The cartridge has spring means included therein for cooperating with the drive hub, upon insertion of one of the holding means into the cartridge, for installing a print element included in the cartridge on the holding means for removal of the print element from the cartridge, and removing a print element from the holding means for loading the cartridge with a print element.

    Abstract: Apparatus for facilitating printer paper feeding. The apparatus is made up of a yoke and a platen channel carrying a paper aligner and feed rollers. The yoke has downwardly extending legs with a detent therebetween. The apparatus is rotatably positionable on a rod mounted parallel to the platen, and the detent is for accepting the rod. The downwardly extending legs are for cooperating with a tooth of a rotatable comb for causing rotation of the apparatus on the rod. The channel serves as a paper deflector and guide for guiding paper about the platen. Within the channel are openings through which front and rear feed rollers carried by the channel extend. Also within the channel is an aligner opening for accepting the paper aligner which is positionable within the aligner opening. The paper aligner has a downwardly extending leg for cooperating with another tooth on the comb to position the aligner within the aligner opening. Due to the structure of the apparatus, a member thereof can be utilized and positioned on the rod to accommodate any length platen.

    Abstract: A daisy wheel printer print element adapted to be housed and oriented in a cartridge during printing and storage. The element has a hammer impact side and a printing side and is made up of a circular central hub, petals connected to the hub and extending radially therefrom, and types carried on the outer extremities of the petals on the printing side of the element. The central hub is dish shaped with its protruding side on the impact side of the element. Carried on the protruding side of the central hub is an orientation protrusion having a stabilizing surface engulfing the axis of rotation of the element. The orientation protrusion is for cooperating with a matching opening in the cartridge. The stabilizing surface is for cooperating with a mating face on a selection motor drive hub. Within the orientation protrusion is a depression also engulfing the axis of rotation of the element. Located within the depression and radially displaced from the axis of rotation of the element is a drive opening. The drive opening is for accepting a drive pin carried by the drive hub. On the printing side of the element and centered within the dished side of the central hub is a bearing protrusion for acting against a bearing surface provided in the cartridge.
